2 The three others are the Chang ahan jing(Dīrghāgama,T. 1), the Za ahan jing (Saṃ yuk tāgama,T. 99), and the Zengyi ahan jing(Ekottarikāgama,T. 125). 3 All Chinese Āgamas have been translated into Japanese and Korean. 4 In the Pāli canon the Sutta-piṭakaincludes a fifth collection of texts, the Khudda kanikāya.The schools of the northern tradition knew a similar group of texts, but some established it as a separate piṭaka,the Kṣudraka-piṭaka,instead of including it in the Sūtra-piṭaka(though the designation Kṣudrakāgamais also found in some sources: Egaku Mayeda,

Piṭakaor Āgama,the fifth collection was never translated as such into Chinese.
5 For want of better terms we subsume under the term "northern tradition" the textual traditions of the schools in Northern India and Central Asia that were codified in languages other than Pāli; the textual traditions that were transmitted to Sri Lanka and eventually resulted in the Pāli canon are correspondingly termed "southern. " This
distinction may be blunt, but is nevertheless useful.

7 The figures cited here are query results from the digital version of Chizen Akanuma's Kan pa shibu shiagon goshōroku (comcatV3.xml, available at http://mbingenheimer.net/ tools/comcat/indexComcat.html). Added together, these numbers slightly exceed the total of two hundred and twenty-two, because in some cases one sutra has more than one parallel. Moreover, these numbers are subject to debate. Bhikkhu Anālayo, in his detailed study, A Comparative Study of the Majjhima-nikāya(Taipei: Dharma Drum, 2011, p. 9), allows for only ninety-six parallels of the Zhong ahan jingin the MN. While the absolute numbers will always depend on the definition of "parallel, " this

general ratio will hold true: less than half of the sutras of T. 26 are found in the MN, most of the rest are found in the three other Nikāyas, and for a small percentage there seems to be no clear parallel in the Pāli corpus. Akanuma's catalogue, Kanpa shibu shiagon goshōroku(The Comparative Catalogue of Chinese Āgamas and Pāli Nikāyas) (Nagoya: Hajinkaku shobō, 1929) is now dated; for the MN parallels one should refer to Bhikkhu Anālayo and Roderick S.

16 T.1.26:763b.
17 T.2.99:199a14.
18 T.1.26:809b. The identity of Daoci is unclear. The Lidai sanbao ji(T.49.2034:70c3) names Daozu (probably identical with Zhu Daozu [347-419]) as the scribe for this translation and this is also the name that appears in the Taishō byline (T.1.26:421a7). The Taishō edition, following the Tripiṭaka Koreana, has included Daoci's text as postscript without mentioning the name of the author (though the text itself clearly identifies Daoci as the author). There are other early sources that give Daoci as the author of the preface (cf. the independent report in the Kaiyuan shijiao lu (T.55.2154:505b6). The Lidai sanbao jiis much less reliable than the Chu sanzang jijiand is responsible for many spurious attributions of pre-Sui Chinese Buddhist texts. Naming Daozu of Wu as the scribe who set down T. 26 should therefore be considered one of the many mistakes made by Fei Changfang, the author of the Lidai sanbao ji(a mere scribal error of zufor ciis unlikely). The mistake found its way into later catalogues (e.g., T.55.2149:246b21), the Tripiṭaka Koreana, and from there into the Taishō edition.
19 T.2.125:549a10. This version of events is taken up in Dharmanandin's biography in the Liang gaoseng zhuan(T.50.2059:328b19). Dharmanandin was also involved in the translation of Abhidharma scriptures, which he recorded as recited by Saṁgha bhūti (T.50.2059:328b8). 20 E.g., T.55.2146:129a2.
21 Dao'an refers to this earlier preface in his preface to the Zengyi ahan jing(T. 125) (T.55.2145:64b1). It is also attested in Fajing's Zhongjing mulu(T.55.2146:147b27). 22 Kōgen Mizuno has reported on these findings in "Kanyaku Chūagonkyōto Zōichiagonkyō no yakushutsu ni tsuite, " Okurayama gakuin kiyō 2 (1956): 41-90;
"Chūagonkyōkaidai,

kenkyū18 (1989): 1-42. His inference that the same team translated these sutras is based mainly on the identical opening and closing formulas and the general style of the texts.

25 First translation in fifty-nine juanat T.55.2145:10b23, second translation (today's T. 26) is at T.55.2145:10c7. Sengyou generally marks non-extant texts with jinque. 26 T.53.2121:243a7

28 In some sources mistakenly written as Kang Hua.
29 The Gaoseng zhuandoes not mention Daoci, Li Bao, or Tang Hua. It does, however, state that Huiyuan's disciple Huichi (337-413) (T.50.2059:361b25-26 and 329a22) was involved in the translation. On the other hand, the Gaoseng zhuan (T.50.2059: 374c23) mentions a Daoci from Yuzhou, but at a time some hundred years later. The contradiction can be settled on logical grounds. If we accept Daoci's preface in the Chu sanzang jijias genuine, and there is little reason to doubt its authenticity, we also have to accept its account as authoritative, since Daoci was directly involved in the translation process. The Daoci mentioned in the Gaoseng zhuanmust have been another monk with the same name.

Notes
35 36 37 38 39 the Dharma guptakas should be considered as well, since this is the school most closely associated with this language. In the light of later research by von Hinüber ("Origin and Varieties of Buddhist Sanskrit,
" p. 354) and Fumio Enomoto (A Comprehensive
Study of the Chinese Saṃyuktāgama,p. 106), this has become unlikely. Among other reasons, the fact that there is an overlap of seven sutras between T. 26 and the Chang ahan jing(T. 1), which is widely believed to be a translation of the Dharmaguptaka Dīrghāgama,makes an attribution of T. 26 to the Dharmaguptakas unlikely. For more details, see Chung and Fukita, A Survey of the Sanskrit Fragments Corresponding to the Chinese Madhyamagama.
I am grateful to Dr. Chung for making a draft copy of the section available to me. For a general reconstruction of the original order, see Egaku Mayeda, Genshi bukkyō shōten no seiritsushi kenkyū(Tokyo: Sankibo, 1964), pp. 649-662; for a more detailed account of the differences between the Pāli and Chinese versions of one division, see Bucknell,

To my knowledge, the earliest witness for the character counts in the Zhong ahan jingis the first edition of the Tripiṭaka Koreana (1011-1029) approximately one-third of which was preserved in the collection of Nanzenji (Kyoto). Of this earliest print witness of the Zhong ahan jingonly fascicles 2-4, 6-9, 21, and 51-54 have survived. (Parts of the first edition of the Tripiṭaka Koreana have been digitized by the Research Institute of Tripiṭaka Koreana, Koryo Daejanggyeong Yongguso, Seoul.) Character counts for the Zhong ahan jingare also included in the Jin or Zhaocheng edition (printed 1139-1178). Character counts are a form of metadata attached to help with preserving the integrity of the text. A standardized layout seems to be a precondition for character counts, since only if the number of characters per line and the number of lines per sheet or woodblock are fixed is it possible to calculate them easily and reliably.
Zhongguo Fojiao Xiehui, ed., Fangshan shijing(Beijing: Zhongguo fojiao tushu wenwu guan, 1989), vol. 21, pp. 1-592.
As mentioned above (n. 37), only twelve fascicles from the first carving of the Tripi ṭaka Koreana (1011-1029) have survived. Next to that we have the Jin edition as an early witness. It is contemporaneous with the Fangshan edition, but its version of the Zhong ahan jingis not complete; fascicles 2-3, 9, 25, 41, 51-52, 56, and 59 are lost. The remains of the Jin canon are reproduced in the Zhonghua dazang jing (Shanghai: Zhonghua shuju, 1984-1996). One single fascicle (no. 36) of the Zhong ahan jing contained in the Liao canon (c. 983-1031) has survived: item no. 9 in Shanxi wenwuju and Zhongguo lishi bowuguan, Yingxian muta Liaodai mizang(Beijing: Wenwu chubanshe, 1991), according to Stefano Zachetti,In Praise of the Light—A Critical Synoptic Edition with an Annotated Translation of Chapters 1-3 of Dharma rakṣa '

Notes
40 TransHelp is open-sourced and available at the SourceForge repository. 41 Cf. Dhammaññū-sutta,AN IV 113. 42 We chose to use the Pāli term khattiyainstead of the translation "warrior, " to make
clear that the term refers to the caste, not to a specific group of warriors. 43 AN IV 115 speaks instead of having a desire to see noble ones, ariyānaṃ dassanakāmo. Perhaps the original used for the Chinese translation also referred to such a "desire, "
as the character wang,used in the present context, could be a result of mistaking kāma,
"desire,
" for kama,
"going" (√kram).
44 Fengxing,probably corresponding to the Indian dharati/dhāreti,e.g., in the frequently used phrase bhagavato sutvā bhikkhū dhāressantī.The Chinese characters mean literally, "receive [orders/teachings] and act upon, " hence it is often translated as "to practice accordingly" or the like. To judge from the Indian corpus, the phrase was originally understood as "to uphold, " "to bear in mind,
" "to remember.
" Later Chinese
commentators and lexicographers were aware of this at times (T.40.1819: 844a29b1 and, probably based on this, HDC [s.v.]). Moreover, in T. 26 and elsewhere one finds fengxingin contexts where only "remember" makes sense (e.g., in Sāriputta's answers to Mahā Koṭṭhita in sutra 29). Based on this and other passages, we chose to render fengxingas "remember well" in the closing formula. For a more detailed discussion see Bingenheimer, Studies in Āgama Literature—With Special Reference to the Shorter Chinese Saṃyuktāgama,pp. 51-55. 45 Cf. Pāricchattaka-sutta,AN IV 117. 46 Wang.The translator(s) apparently took an Indic equivalent of jālakato mean "net, "
which indeed is one possible meaning. Here, however, the relevant meaning is "bud. "
47 Le zhu shi,Pāli sukha-vihāra.In the Chinese textual tradition the final character shi, "room, abode,
" is sometimes mistaken as kong, "emptiness.
" Another variant is ding,
"concentration.
" That kongis a scribal error is supported by the lack of a corresponding term in the Pāli version of the formula. 48 Cf. Nagaropama-sutta,AN IV 106. 49 Here the text adds "emptiness, " probably owing to a copyist's error, as explained in note 47, for le zhu shi,above. 50 Cf. Udakūpama-sutta,AN IV 11. 51 The formulation found at this point in MĀ 4 could be understood to imply that the fetters are already abandoned before the attainment of stream-entry. The Pāli parallel AN IV 12, however, readstiṇṇaṃ saññojanānaṃ parikkhayā sotāpanno hoti, "by
abandoning the three fetters he becomes a stream-enterer. " That the eradication of
the three fetters takes place at the moment of stream-entry itself can be seen more explicitly in Sn 231 and AN I 242. 52 The present passage reads literally, "born in that interval,
" Pāli opapātika(AN IV 12). 547
Notes
53 Cf. Aggikkhandhopama-sutta,AN IV 128. 54 Chengcan render pratijñā(Akira Hirakawa, Bukkyō kanbon daijiten[Buddhist Chinese-Sanskrit Dictionary] (Tokyo: Reiyūkai, 1997], p. 903), so that the intended sense would be similar to the Pāli parallel, AN IV 128: assamaṇassa samaṇapaṭiññassa abrahmacārissa brahmacāripaṭiññassa. 55 No reference to a fireplace is found in the Pāli parallel. Since Buddhist monks and nuns in ancient India were not allowed to kindle a fire to warm themselves, one would not expect them to be given a hut with a fireplace. 56 Cf. Purisagati-sutta,AN IV 70. 57 I.e., nirvana.
58 Adopting the variant reading zhan. 59 Cf. Sattasūriya-sutta,AN IV 100. 60 Adopting the variant reading yi. 61 Adopting the variant reading hui. 62 Wu suo zhuo.For an explanation of how the second epithet of the Buddha, "Arahant,
"
came to be translated in this way, see Jan Nattier, "The Ten Epithets of the Buddha in the Translations of Zhi Qian, " Annual Report of the International Research Institute for Advanced Buddhology at Soka University6 (2003): 217-219. 63 On the pre-Kumārajīva Chinese translation of anuttarapuruṣadamyasārathias wushang shiand daofayu,see Thich Minh Chau, The Chinese Madhyama Āgama and the Pāli Majjhima Nikāya(Delhi: Motilal Banarsidass, 1991, reprint), p. 326; Nattier, "The
Ten Epithets of the Buddha in the Translations of Zhi Qian, " pp. 244-245, 247. Even
though this seeming misreading of damyafor dharmamight reflect an independent interpretation of the term that already existed in India, we here assume, against our text, that the correct form of the epithet is as rendered above. 64 Cf. Rathavinīta-sutta,MN I 145. 65 The use of the expression "renunciant Gotama" would have been chosen by Sāriputta on purpose in order not to give away his identity as a co-disciple of the Buddha. For a disciple the proper way to refer to the Buddha would rather be "World-honored One" (bhagavā).
66 Adopting the variant reading er. 67 The text gives the name of the mother just as ci,Mettā. 68 Cf. Sabbāsava-sutta,MN I 6. 69 The passage actually reads "does not remove, discard, forsake, and get rid of them, "
which is a textual corruption. 548
Notes
70 Cf. Loṇaphala-sutta,AN I 249. 71 In the Chinese, this assertion and the preceding one are identically worded. However, from the Pāli parallel (AN I 249) and the context, it is clear that a distinction is being made between two different assertions: first, that karmic retribution is exactly commensurate with the deed, resulting in a determinism that precludes the holy life and the ending of suffering; second, the general proposition that the results of deeds will inevitably be experienced.
72 Cf. Vappa-sutta,AN II 196.
73 AN II 196 adds that he also has eradicated ignorance and aroused knowledge, thereby indicating that the person in question is a fully awakened one. 74 Cf. Titthāyatanādi-sutta,AN I 173. 75 Taking the shiin the meaning of "to approve, to endorse" (HDC, s.v.). 76 Nei yin nei. Yin neisignifies "reason and authority" (William E. Soothill and Lewis Hodous, A Dictionary of Chinese Buddhist Terms[London: Kegan, 1937], p. 205), and neican render antargata(Hirakawa, Bukkyō kanbon daijiten,p. 160); hence, the sense appears to be "on being included in this reason, " or, more freely,
"it would
follow logically.
"
77 Cf. Ambalaṭṭhikārāhulovāda-sutta,MN I 414. 78 Here and below the text actually reads "pure, " which must be a textual error; cf. the discussion in Anālayo,
"Oral Dimensions of Pāli Discourses, " pp. 38-40.
79 Here and below the text actually reads "impure"; cf. n. 78, above. 80 Cf. AN V 292-302.
81 Cf. Kesamutti-sutta,AN I 188. 82 Cf. Asibandhakaputta-sutta,SN IV 311. 83 The bihere is probably a mistake for dang,as in the parallel passage below. 84 Cf. Sīha-sutta,AN IV 179.
85 Zu xing zi,Pāli kulaputta.Often translated as "son of good family. " With "clansman"
we follow Bhikkhu Bodhi. Margaret Cone's suggestion of "noble youth (of whatever birth)" (A Dictionary of Pāli,vol. 1. [a-kh] [Oxford: Pāli Text Society, 2001]) is also possible, perhaps preferable, in most cases, but there are passages where the term does not seem to encompass only the young. 86 Cf. Devadaha-sutta,MN II 214. 87 Zeng e,Skt. kutsana(Hirakawa, Bukkyō kanbon daijiten,p. 503). 88 Zi duan ku. This is one of several cases in T. 26 where Chinese duanseems to have resulted from a confusion of prahāṇa("getting rid of, " "eliminate,
" duan)

and pra dhāna("exertion"). This could be due to a Prakritic conflation of Skt. prahāṇa and pradhānain Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit prahāna,or else due to a genuine alternative interpretation of the passage in the northern tradition. (There are other instances in the northern tradition where prahāṇais preferred over pradhāna;e.g., in the list of the "four correct kinds of elimination,
" catvāri samyak-prahāṇāni/si zheng duan. The Saṅghadeva team consistently rendered the pra-√hain their Prakrit source as duan. 89 The dialogic structure in the Chinese is ambivalent here. Following the Pāli, we consider the rhetorical question and its answer as part of the monks' speech. 90 Cf. Pāṭaliya-sutta,SN IV 340.
91 Here and in the two instances above, the term shi huanappears to be a translation error. The text makes sense when, as in the Pāli, the headman asks first only if the Buddha knows magic. There it is only after the Buddha answers in the affirmative that the headman equates knowing magic with being a magician and is reproached for doing so.
92 The Chinese character jiis usually restricted to female singers and has the connotation of "prostitute.
" Here it is perhaps used rather like the English "songstress" or "crooner. "
93 Zhai,Pāli yiṭṭha(SN IV 348).
94 Wu shang ren shang zhi fa.We follow the variant readings found in the Chinese editions of the canon, which omit the second shang. 95 Cf. AN I 63.
96 Deng xin tian,Pāli samacittā devatā.
97 Cf. Nirodha-sutta,AN III 192.
98 Baijing, lit.,
"spotless, pure.
" The Taishō note for this name gives Upavāna, the name of the protagonist in the Pāli parallel. It is difficult, however, to see how Upavāna could have been rendered as Baijing. The name in the Indic original could have been Vimala or perhaps Suddha, Subha, or Sukka. However, the name of the well-attested elder Vimala is rendered differently below, being transcribed as Weimoluo (T.01.26.472a2-3). In sutra 32 of our text (Shi) Baijing renders the name of the Buddha's father, Suddhodana. Elsewhere in the canon Baijing renders the name of the nun Subhā (e.g., at T.2.100:483b27, or at T.4.200:239b16). 99 Cf. Kaḷāra-sutta,SN II 50.
100 Cf. Sīhanāda-sutta,AN IV 373.
101 Cf. Dutiya-āghātapaṭivinaya-sutta,AN III 186. 102 Chu nao,Pāli āghātapaṭinvinaya.
103 Cf. Gulissāni-sutta,MN I 469.

104 Wu shi,Pāli arañña.
105 Cf. Dhanañjāni-sutta,MN II 184.
106 Adopting the variant guan.
107 Nu bi,Pāli dāsidāsā.In some places perhaps only dāsā, "servants,
" without emphasizing both genders, but in the absence of an Indic original this cannot be decided. 108 Adopting the variant feiinstead of yi. 109 Cf. Paṭhama-anāthapiṇḍika-sutta,SN V 380, Sudatta-sutta,SN I 210; and Vin II 154. 110 Adopting the variant mi("honey").
111 Zhang zhe,Pāli gahapati/seṭṭhi.Elsewhere translated as "householder. "
112 Cf. Sammādiṭṭhi-sutta,MN I 46.
113 Cf. Mahāhatthipadopama-sutta,MN I 184. 114 This appears to be an error (mind objects do not require light), an unwarranted repetition of the corresponding passage from the description of visual cognition. 115 The text literally has "the external forms and mind objects cognized by mind consciousness. " This appears to be another case of confusion with the earlier passage referring to visual cognition. The same applies for the passage stating that the mind and its objects belong to the material form aggregate. 116 Cf. Saccavibhaṅga-sutta,MN III 248.
117 Adopting the variant zhenginstead of xin. 118 Cf. Acchariya-abbhūta-sutta,MN III 118. 119 From the context it is clear that ru yi zurefers to "supernormal power" (Pāli iddhi vidhā/iddhi-ānubhāva), both in this sutra and in nos. 36 and 60. Elsewhere, however (e.g., sutras 35, 37, 62, 69), it has its more usual meaning, "bases of supernormal
power" (iddhi-pāda), and is translated accordingly. 120 This may be the elder Gavāṃpati, though his name is transcribed differently at T01.26:532a25-29, where it is confirmed by the Pāli (unlike the present case, for which there is no parallel Pāli discourse). Since transcriptions of names are usually very consistent in T. 26, this case needs further research. 121 Xutuoye. According to the Ding Fubao Foxue Dacidian(s.v.) this is a variant transcription of Sutuoyi, for which again the Ding Fubaogives Sudāya, Sudāna, and to which the Foguang dacidianadds "Pāli: Sudāyi. " However, Sudāyi seems not to be
attested. The case is problematic and needs further research. 122 The Chinese transcription is unique; the intended name may have been Pūrṇamāśa/ Puṇṇamāsa or Pindola Bhāradvāja. The name Binnoujiatuniao is listed under Puṇṇa 551
Notes
Mantāniputta by Akanuma Chizen, but this is not conclusive since Akanuma generally lists parallel occurrences, which are not always semantically equivalent; Indo bukkyō koyū meishi jiten(Nagoya: Hajinkaku shobō, 1930-1931); reprinted as Dictionary of Buddhist Proper Names(Delhi: Sri Satguru Publications, 1994), s.v. Puṇṇa Mantāniputta. 123 Adopting the variant suo luo luo.The identification of Salaḷāgāra is tentative. According to Malalasekera (s.v.), Salaḷāgāra is a building in Jeta's Grove, apparently made out of salaḷawood, and not a mountain. 124 Cf. Bakkula-sutta,MN III 124. 125 Cf. Pahārāda-sutta,AN IV 197. 126 Cf. Bhūmicala-sutta,AN IV 308. 127 Cf. Uposatha-sutta,AN IV 204. 128 The exact meaning of the term che chuanis doubtful. Also doubtful is whether the simile is refers to the relentlessness of the rain or to the size of the raindrops. An alternative solution might be "[large] drops, [long] like the linchpins on the axle caps [of a chariot].
"
129 Cf. Ugga-sutta,AN IV 208. 130 Cf. Dutiyahatthaka-sutta,AN IV 218. 131 The four saṅgahavatthus are not translated clearly in the Chinese. Our translation relies heavily on the Pāli version. 132 The Chinese has only Dharma hall (fa tang). It is clear from the context that this is the Sudhamma Hall (shanfa tang), the usual assembly place for the thirty-three gods (Gunapala Malalasekera, Dictionary of Pali Proper Names[London: Pali Text Society, 1974], s.v.).
133 Cf. Paṭhamahatthaka-sutta,AN IV 216. 134 Cf. Kimatthiya-sutta,AN V 1. Yi,Pāli attha.Depending on the context, atthacan denote "goal,
" "purpose,
" "profit,
" "benefit,
" "wealth,
" "concern,
" "meaning,
" and
more.
"Purpose" makes sense for both the Chinese yia nd the Indic attha.Frank Woodward, The Book of Gradual Sayings(London: Pali Text Society, 1936), vol. V, p. 1, translates the corresponding question in the Kimatthiyasuttaas "What is the object?" See also his note on this, and the remarks on atthaby C. A. F. Rhys Davids in her Introduction, p. viii. 135 Cf. Cetanākaraṇīya-sutta,AN V 2. 136 Cf. Satisampajañña-sutta,AN IV 336. 137 Cf. Hirī-ottappa-sutta,AN IV 99. 552
Notes
138 This structure is also used in the following sutras: 1) some tenet X (from the conditionally linked chain of concepts); 2) analogy illustrating X; 3) X again as moral of the analogy; 4) X reversed/negated; 5) analogy reversed/negated; 6) moral reversed/ negated. 139 Cf. Paṭhama-upanisā-sutta,A V 313.
140 Cf. Dutiya-upanisā-sutta,A V 314. The number of this sutra is mistakenly printed as "47" in the Taishō.
141 Shi xi nie pan.Here shiis probably a mistake for bian. 142 Cf. Paṭhama-agārava-sutta,AN III 14.
143 Shenfor skandha/khandha.These are the "five groups or parts which constitute the factors of right living" (Pāli-English Dictionary,s.v. khandha). 144 Cf. Dutiya-agārava-sutta,AN III 15.
145 Cf. Avijjā-sutta,AN V 113 and Taṇhā-sutta,A V 116. 146 Older comparative catalogues list no Pāli parallel for this sutra, which combines the two sets developed in sutras nos. 42-48 and 51-53, and adds a number of new links (ñāṇa-dassana, āsavakkhaya,etc., at the beginning and atthūpaparikkhā,etc., at the end). These additional links of the chain appear in MN 70 (Kitagiri-sutta) and MN 95 (Caṅkī-sutta).
147 Guan fa ren,Pāli dhammanijjhānakkhanti(Hirakawa, Bukkyō kanbon daijiten,no. 3427: dharma-nidhyāna-kṣānti).
148 The Taishō text is garbled here. We follow the suggested reading in the CBETA edition (T01.26.490c29).
149 Cf. Meghiya-sutta,AN IV 354.
150 She dou.The Taishō note (p. 491, note 6) gives jantu,the reading in the Pāli sutta. The reading jatu,which appears in the Pāli commentary (Manoratha pūraṇīIV 164), is preferable.
151 Xue duan. See the footnote on zi duan kuin sutra 19. 152 Duan.Here too probably "striving" (padhāna) is meant rather than "abandoning" (pahāna). See footnote on zi duan kuin sutra 19. 153 Cf. Sambodhi-sutta,AN IV 351.
154 Cf. Cakkavatti-sutta,SN V 99.
155 Cf. Lakkhaṇa-sutta,DN III 142.
156 Cf. Jā II 310, Mandhātu-jātakaand Divyāvadānano.17: Māndhāta;Edward Byles Cowell and R. A. Neil, Divyāvadāna—A Collection of Early Buddhist Legends(London: Clay & Son, 1886), pp. 200-228. 553
Notes
157 Cf. Dhp 187.
158 Cf. Gomayapiṇḍa-sutta,SN III 143. 159 Cf. Mahāvastu;Émile Senart, Le Mahavastu: texte Sanscrit—publié pour la première fois et accompagné d'introductions et d'un commentaire par É. Senart(Paris: Imprimerie Nationale, 1882-1897), vol. 3, pp. 441-449. 160 Cf. Ghaṭikāra-sutta,MN II 45. 161 Probably rendering the variously attested name Nigrodha (Skt. Nyagrodha). Cf. Analayo,
"Zhong A-han,
" in W. G. Weeraratne, ed., Encyclopaedia of Buddhism (Sri Lanka: Department of Buddhist Affairs, 2009), vol. 8, no. 3, pp. 827-830. 162 Cf. Devadūta-sutta,MN III 178. 163 The final shanin this half-line is probably a mistake for jing. Shan qing jing= Pāli suparisuddha.
164 Perhaps the gunglaor ghungil(Anastomus oscitans), a small stork that feeds on shellfish. 165 Wu huan,literally,
"not hurt.
" Huanmay have been used to translate riṣṭa/riṭṭha. 166 Cf. Theragāthā910-919.
167 Cf. Cakkavatti-sutta,DN III 75. 168 Cf. Makhādeva-sutta,MN II 74. 169 "Seven limbs": the elephant's four legs, two tusks, and trunk. 170 Yu sha he,Pāli usabha.
171 Xianren wang,or (below) wang xianren, Skt. rāja-ṛṣi.Outside this compound we translate xianrenas "seer.
"
172 The meaning of this passage is unclear. Jian,besides its usual meaning of "view, "
can also render ā-√gam(Hirakawa, Bukkyō kanbon daijiten,s.v.). 173 Fa zhai:charitable events where food is given to the poor, probably in the context of recitations and other rituals. Chinese readers through the ages would have understood this to mean vegetarian food, but it is not necessary to assume this for the Indian context. 174 Cf. Mahāsudassana-sutta,DN II 169. 175 Bo luo tou.Probably a mistake for bo tou luo,transcribing a word equivalent to Skt./Pāli pāṭala.
176 Pāli pañcaṅgika tūriya. 177 Cf. Cakkavattisīhanāda-sutta,DN III 58. 554
Notes
178 Dang zi ran fadeng.
"You should yourself be a lamp of the Dharma" would be a more literal translation. For the phrasing of this passage, cf. T.12.380:972c13. 179 Ding sheng,Pāli muddhābhisitta. Ding shengwas used in sutra 60 to translate the name Māndhāta.
180 Feifayu[e]tan xiefa.Other passages (e.g., below T.1.26:524b16) insert the character e,
"evil,
" for this triad.
181 Cf. Pāyāsi-sutta,DN II 316. 182 Ru lai chi,lit.,
particle suo.
"the Tathāgatha's command. " The laiis probably a mistake for the 183 The text reads wu/e,which, according to Hirakawa (Bukkyō kanbon daijiten,p. 486), can render pratikūla.
184 Bing,perhaps for Skt. bhakta.The Pāli has kali,the "losing number of dice, " "the
extra die" (Cone, A Dictionary of Pāli,vol. 1 [a-kh], s.v.). It seems that the Indian game was played with edible seeds of the vibīthakatree; Thomas W. and Caroline A. Rhys Davids, Dialogues of the Buddha, Translated from the Pāli of the Dīgha Nikāya(London: H. Frowde, Oxford University Press, 1899-1921), vol. II, p. 368, n. 1. The idea is that losing could be prevented by eating a token. See also Heinrich Lüders,
