According to the Chaxiang shi congchao 茶香室叢鈔 [written by a scholar of the Qing Dynasty, Yu Yue 俞樾 (1821–1907)], the Lianghuang baochan 梁皇寶懺 (= T1909) is an abridgement and adaptation of a work commissioned by Xiao Ziliang 蕭子良 (460–494), the Jingxing famen 淨行法門, incorporating work by many brilliant monks of the Liang Dynasty (502–557). It was re-edited by Miaojuezhi 妙覺智 (d.u., = Zhisong Baiting 智松柏庭) and others in the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368) to become the present Cibei daochang chanfa 慈悲道場懺法. From this we can conclude that the Cibei daochang chanfa was compiled during the Yuan Dynasty and published under the name of Emperor Liangwu (464–549). |
