Rhodes summarises some scholarly controversy over the composition of the "three commentaries" ascribed to Shōtoku Taishi 聖德太子:

"In 1956, Fukui Kōjun created a sensation when he argued that the Yuimakyō gisho could not have been written by Prince Shōtoku. The Yuimakyō gisho quotes a Chinese text called the Pai hsing 百行, which, according to Fukui, refers to the Paihsing chang 百行章 by Tu Cheng-lun 杜正倫 of the T’ang dynasty. Since Tu died in 658, 36 years after Prince Shotoku’s death, Fukui concluded that the Yuimakyō gisho could not have been written by the prince. Although the version of the Pai-hsing chang which Fukui consulted was incomplete, he believed that the passage quoted in the Yuimakyō gisho was to be found in the missing sections. (Fukui, 1956: 312-313) Subsequently, Naitō Tatsuo discovered a complete version of the Pai-hsing chang among the Tun-huang manuscripts, and found that the passage in question did not exist within the text at all. As a result, Naitō concluded that the Pai hsing quoted in the Yuimagyō gisho was not the Pai-hsing chang, but the Pai-hsing chen 百行箴 by Taoheng 道恒.

(Fujieda 1975: 487-9).

"Through such arguments, scholars became increasingly convinced that none of the three commentaries can be attributed directly to Prince Shotoku. Inoue Mitsusada has been the foremost proponent of this view in recent years. Expanding on Ogura’s study, Inoue argued that the commentaries were not written by Prince Shotoku himself but became identified with the prince sometime between 720 (when the Nihon shoki was composed) and 747."
