On the basis of a complex examination of the evidence in the catalogues from CSZJJ to KYL (73-92), Kawano arrives at this corpus of 41 texts, which he thinks can most safely be ascribed to Dharmarakṣa and dated, in order to construct a basis for examining Dharmarakṣa's corpus for the development of translation idiom over the course of his career. This note lists that corpus. Kawano arrives at this corpus on the basis of the following criteria: (1) He accepts texts which were probably dated in the original CSZJJ, as represented by the Koryŏ (Kawano shows that the version of CSZJJ received via the Song[-Yuan-Ming] line of transmission includes a large set of problematic additional dates); (2) He accepts texts first dated in Fajing, as long as the date was accepted by Zhisheng in KYL; (3) He rejects texts for which a translation date first appears in LDSBJ; (4) He adds one further text (T810) that can be dated on the basis of a (very early manuscript) colophon. [Note: This list includes four (or five?) lost texts, and a couple of texts ascribed to other translators in the received canon. The number of lost texts is uncertain, because the list includes a 無量壽經, which some modern scholars would be inclined to identify with T360 ascribed to Kang Sengkai 康僧鎧---MR.] Entry author: Michael Radich |

Mei begins with the 76 texts ascribed to Dharmarakṣa in the present Taishō which also appear in Sengyou. She then eliminates eight for the following reasons: five are listed as lost by Sengyou's time (T182, T288, T496, T558, T1301); T1301, moreover, contains details that makes it appear as if it may have been composed in China; T103 and T453 have been regarded as dubious by modern scholars (Gao Mingdao and Yinshun); and Sengyou's description of the 佛為菩薩五夢經 that he ascribes to Dharmarakṣa does not match T310(4). This leaves 68 texts Mei thinks can reliably be matched against Sengyou. This entry lists those 68 texts. [Note: Mei erroneously gives the number T627 for what is properly T636---MR.] Entry author: Michael Radich |

Tsui states that according to CSZJJ, Fashou acted as amanuensis for Dharmarakṣa's translations on three occasions: for the Buddhasaṅgīti-sūtra 諸佛要集經 T810 (in 292); the Acaladharmamudrā-sūtra 聖法印經 T103 (294); and for two texts on a single occasion, via. the Tathāgatajñānamudrāsamādhi-sūtra 慧印三昧經 (for which the only extant text is ascribed to Zhi Qian, T632) and the Sarvavaipulyavidyāsiddhi-sūtra 濟諸方等學經 T274.

In the appendix to his dissertation Boucher provides a list of ninety-five texts attributed to Dharmarakṣa by Sengyou in his Chu sanzang ji ji 出三藏記集 T2145, along with a note on relevant scholarship. Among these texts is the Yaoji jing 要集經 Buddhasaṃgīti-sūtra T810. He adds that the text is also known as Zhufo yaoji jing 諸佛要集經 or Fotuo sengqiti 佛陀僧祇提. Boucher writes that there is an extant manuscript of Dharmarakṣa’s translation dated 296, discovered by an Ōtani expedition to the Turfan Basin in 1912. He refers to discussion of this manuscript and its colophon elsewhere in his own dissertation (Chapter Two, colophon no. 12). Entry author: Sophie Florence |

[Chen 1983] Chen Guocan 陳國燦. "Tulufan chutu de Zhufo yaoji jing canjuan yu Dunhuang gaoseng Zhu Fahu de yijing kaolüe" 吐魯番出土的《諸佛要集經》殘卷與敦煌高僧竺法護的譯經考略. Dunhuangxue jikan 敦煌學輯刊 (1983): 1/2:6–13. |
The colophon of the *Buddhasaṅgīti-sūtra 諸佛要集經 T810 fragment discovered in Turfan does not specify the place where the text was translated. Chen Guocan argues that this fragment was translated in Luoyang 洛陽 in 292, copied in Jiuquan 酒泉 by Zhu Fashou 竺法首 in 296, and then brought to Turfan (p. 9). Chen traces Dharmarakṣa's travels according to the colophons of his translation and his assistants mentioned therein. According to the colophons of the Tathāgatamahākaruṇā-sūtra 如來大哀經 T398 and the Tathāgatotpattisaṃbhava-nirdeśa 如來興顯經 T291, Dharmarkṣa was in Luoyang on 23/8/291 and 25/12/291. This makes it very likely that T810, dated 22/1/292 in the colophon of the Turfan manuscript fragment, was also translated in Luoyang. The same scribe mentioned in the Turfan colophon, Nie Chengyuan 聶承遠, was also the scribe of T398 and the (lost) Śūraṃgamasamādhi-sūtra 首楞嚴三昧經 (translated 4/9/291). According to the colophon of the *Acaladharmamudrā 聖法印經 T103, Dharmarakṣa was in Jiuquan on 25/12/294, and the scribe 筆受者 was Fashou 竺法首. The colophon of the Turfan Buddhasaṅgīti fragment reads [筆]授聶承遠 and 竺法首寫已, which shows that it might be a copy by Zhu Fashou of the text already translated in 291 in Luoyang written by Nie Chengyuan. This text was later brought to Turfan in waves of migration to the west due to wars in the "Central Plains" region 中原. Entry author: Chia-wei Lin |
