These passages “could be fragments of a special Chinese Hayagrīva-text, that was lost at an early date.” However, van Gulik concludes that it is more probable that they are remnants of sādhanas and short rituals that have been transmitted in fragments outside the Canon.

Van Gulik regarded the 聖賀野紇哩縛大威怒王立成大神驗供養念誦儀軌法品上卷 T1072A as Japanese apocryphon, because it combines information found in the Dhāraṇīsaṅgraha with passages from T1056, T1214, T901, and passages not included in the canon. This text combined all available canonical material concerning Hayagrīva into one extensive ritual, grouped around a detailed description of Hayagrīva’s maṇḍala.

After some introductory verses, T1072A includes the “beginning of another kalpa” from T1056. Chapter one comprises “shorter and longer citations from T1056, alternating with fragments which have nothing to do with Hayagrīva".

The second chapter largely comprises an elaboration of Hayagrīva’s maṇḍala. The remainder of the chapter is a collection of fragments mainly borrowed from Chapter VI of the Dhāraṇīsaṅgraha, alternating with short, independent passages. One of these (a description of Hayagrīva sitting on a water-buffalo) has been taken from T1214.
