[Fajing 594] Fajing 法經. Zhongjing mulu 眾經目錄 T2146. — T2146 (LV) 116c3, 122a28-29. |
Ascribed in an interlinear note in Fajing to *Kālayaśas: 觀藥王藥上二菩薩經一卷(宋元嘉年畺良耶舍譯). The same attribution appears again in a list at the end of fascicle 1; however, according to the Taishō apparatus (122 n. 1), this list is taken from M, and collated against Y, which suggests it is missing from S and K (and therefore a late addition?).

Fujita notes that the Guan Yaowang Yaoshang er pusa jing 觀藥王藥上二菩薩經 (Baiṣajyarāja-sūtra) T1161 translated by Kālayaśas 畺良耶舍 lacks Tibetan and Sanskrit versions, as well as any other Chinese counterparts. In this sense, Fujita treats T1161 as one of a number of scriptures dating from around the same time, teaching "contemplation" 觀 meditations, which share the same conditions---usually, they are "sole examplars" (in Nattier's phrase), i.e. no known alternate versions are known in Sanskrit, Tibetan or Chinese; they sometimes have known sources in prior Chinese texts; and so on. Scholars have often argued that texts in this broader group were composed in Central Asia or China. Fujita adds that the text contains the term weiwu sanmei 惟無三昧 (“samādhi of non-existence only”), which is also found in the Guan Fo sanmei hai jing 首楞嚴三昧經 T643, which is believed to have drawn in turn from the Weiwu sanmei jing 惟無三昧經, a text labeled as “apocryphal” by Dao'an.

According to Ōno, T1161 was first ascribed to *Kālayaśas 畺良耶舍 in GSZ, followed by other catalogues including LDSBJ and Fajing. However, Sengyou classifies it as anonymous. Entry author: Atsushi Iseki |

[Bie lu (DH mss)] "Liu Song" Zhongjing bie lu 劉宋眾經別錄, S.2872, P.3747. Dating complex and unclear. |
|
In the "Liu Song" Zhongjing bie lu 劉宋眾經別錄, as represented by a Dunhuang manuscript fragment, P.3747, the following titles are listed, which may correspond to extant texts (in some cases, identification is rather tentative). In contrast to some other titles, which are treated in separate CBC@ entries, these titles are listed in the Bie lu without any further accompanying information (e.g. about ascription or date). Note that the Bie lu includes interlinear notes giving such information, and the scope of application of those interlinear notes is sometimes uncertain: it can be hard to tell whether they apply only to the single title preceding the note, or to a group of titles leading up to the note; and if they apply to a group of titles, how many. Titles in the DH ms. Bie lu are identified by the numbering in Tan (1991), given at the beginning of each line. S.2872 P.3747 Many of these same titles are treated as anonymous and extant in CSZJJ fascicle 4. The same is also true of a number of titles not listed here, because the texts in question appear not to be extant. Texts presently ascribed to Dharmarakṣa and to Zhi Qian (excepting T361) are excluded from this entry, because they are treated in other CBC@ entries. Entry author: Michael Radich |
