In KYL, Zhisheng discussed the fact that three translations had been reported of the Karuṇāpuṇḍarīka, by Dharmarakṣa, Daogong 道龔, and *Dharmakṣema. Zhisheng reported a tradition that Daogong had in fact revised and arranged the first translation, by Dharmarakṣa; but Zhisheng's own opinion was that the extant text was in fact probably the *Dharmakṣema version.

Silk states briefly, referring to KYL, Tokiwa, Yamada, and Hayashiya, that "the evidence seems to suggest that the attribution [of a Bei hua jing to Daogong] is probably false, and that the 'lost' Karuṇāpuṇḍarīka translation of Daogong is rather to be identified wit the extant translation attributed to his more famous contemporary Dharmakṣema.

Akanuma Chizen 赤沼智善 and Nishio Kyōo 西尾京雄 explain that there were four alternate translations of the Karuṇāpuṇḍarīka, including 悲華經 T157. One was the Bei hua jing 悲華經, recorded as translated by Daogong 道龔 of the N. Liang 北凉. This text has been lost, and Akanuma and Nishio suspect that it might not have even existed in the first place.
