Chen notes that Sengyou records four translations under the name of Dharmamitra 曇摩蜜多: Guan Puxian pusa xingfa jing 觀普賢菩薩行法經 (alt. Puxian guanjing) in one juan, which is an excerpt from the Shen gongde jing 深功德經; Xukongzang guan jing 虛空藏觀經 (alt. Guan Xukongzang pusa jing 觀虛空藏菩薩經) in one juan [probably corresponding to T409?]; Chan miyao 禪祕要 (alt. Chan fayao 禪法要) in three or five juan, “translated in Yuanjia 18 (441)”; and Wumen chanjing yaoyong fa 五門禪經要用法 [T619] in one or two juan. He adds that Dharmamitra’s biography in the Gaoseng zhuan lists his translations as: Chan jing 禪經, Chan fayao 禪法要, Puxian guan 普賢觀, and Xukongzang guan 虛空藏觀, “which apparently correspond to the fourth, the third, the first and the second translations listed in the Chu sanzang ji ji.” See CSZJJ T2145:55.12b27-c4; GSZ T2059:50.343a4-5.
