Changfang lists T416 as Jñānagupta’s sixth translation among thirty-one (at the time of the compilation of the catalogue), and his attribution has been accepted by all subsequent catalogues. Harrison considers the strength of the external evidence to outweigh the need for internal evidence, but for good measure adds that T416 “exhibits all the characteristics of the later Chinese Buddhist translations:” standard terminology, fidelity to the text, consistency in the use of formulae. He concludes that T416 was translated in the “early months of the year 595 at the Daxingshan-si in Chang’an.” Entry author: Sophie Florence Edit
