Harrison finds most of the parallels in the Chinese and Pāli SĀ collections: T99(947), T100(340), T101(11) (identical), T765, 15.10 in the Saṃyutta-nikāya, and Itivuttaka 24. However, Harrison suggests that the sutra can also very well have belonged to the Eka-nipāta of an EĀ collection. Entry author: Sharon Chi Edit

Title: Ji gu jing 積骨經

[Harrison 1997] Harrison, Paul. "The Ekottarika-Āgama Translations of An Shigao." In Bauddhavidyāsudhākaraḥ: Studies in Honour of Heinz Bechert on the Occasion of His 65th Birthday, edited by Petra Kieffer-Pülz and Jens-Uwe Hartmann, 261-283. Stisttal-Odendorf: Indica et Tibetica Verlag, 1997.

Harrison notes that T101 includes two discourses that are completely identical with discourses from An Shigao’s T150A: T101(27) with the 七處三觀經 Qi chu san guan jing and T101(11) with the 積骨經 Ji gu jing.

Ji gu jing 積骨經

The extant Ji gu jing 積骨經 has been transmitted as part of the received T150A. In his study of T150A, Harrison restores the order of the collection as follows (roman numerals are used to indicate the number that discourses currently carry in the Taishō):

A. 七處三觀經Qi chu san guan jing: i(a) 875b4 – c16 & iii(b) 876b1 – c7
B. 九橫經 Jiu heng jing: xxxi 880b20 – 881a1
C. 雜經四十四篇 Zajing sishisi pian:
1-9: xxxii – xl
10: xli(a) 881b18-22 & i(b) 875c16-18
11: ii 875c19 – 876a15
12: iii(a) 876a16-b1 & xli(b)881b22-c3
13 – 18: xlii – xlvii
19 – 44: iv – xxix
D. 積骨經 Ji gu jing: xxx 880b10 – 18

Based on the records in Sengyou’s CSZJJ, Harrison deduces that these texts were already collated together by Sengyou's time, since he marks the collection Zajing sishisi pian as missing, and indicates the length of Qi chu as 2 juan and Jiuheng as 1 juan --- even though Qi chu alone could never have amounted to 2 juan.

Unlike all the other sūtras collected in T150A (which are set in the Jetavana, Śrāvastī), the Ji gu jing is set on the Gṛḍhrakūṭa at Rājagṛha. It exhorts people to follow the Buddha’s teaching, stating that it would otherwise take even more lifetimes to reach liberation than the lifetimes needed for one’s bones to pile as high as Mt. Meru.
