Afterwards the Indian Shâman Dharmaraksha II.(98) brought other copies of the foreign MSS. to the West of the Ho. And Tsü-_kh_ü Mung-sun, the king of North Liang, sent messengers to Kâo-_kh_ang for the copy which _K_i-mang had brought, wishing to compare the two.(99) When _K_i-mang’s copy arrived,(100) a translation was made of it in thirty sections. Dharmaraksha II. translated the Suvar_n_a-prabhâsa and the Nirvâ_n_a-Sutrâ, 416-423 A. D. The K’ai-yuen-lu ascribes nineteen works to Dharmalatsin in 131 fascicles. Buddhism from that time spread very rapidly in China, and the translations became too numerous to be all mentioned. The Mahâyâna school was represented at that time chiefly by the following translations:— Translated by Kumâra_g_îva: The Vimalakîrtti-sûtra (Beal, “Catalogue,” p. 17. The Saddharmapun_nd_arika-sûtra (Beal, “Catalogue,” p. 15) The Satyasiddhavyâkara_n_a-_s_âstra (Beal, “Catalogue,” p. 80) Translated by Dharmalatsin, or Dharmaraksha II.: The Suvar_n_aprabhâsa-sûtra (Beal, “Catalogue,” p. 15) The Nirvâ_n_a-sûtra (Beal, “Catalogue.” p. 12) The Hînayâna school was represented by— The Sarvâstivâda-vinaya by Kumâra_g_îva (Beal, “Catalogue,” pp. 67, 68). The Dîrghâgama-sûtra, by Buddhaya_s_as, 410 A. D. (Beal, “Catalogue,” p. 36). The Vinaya of the four Parts, by Buddhaya_s_as.(101) The Ekottarâgama-sûtra (Aṅguttara), translated by Dharmanandin, of Tukhâra (Fa-hsi). The Abhidharma disquisitions, by Dharmayasas,(102) of Kophene. During the period of Lung-an (397-401) the Ekottarâgama (Anguttara) and Madhyamâgama-sûtras(103) were translated by Saṅghadeva of Kophene. This is probably the Ma_gg_hima Nikâya, translated by Gotama Saṅghadeva, under the Eastern Tsin dynasty, 317-419. In the period Î-hsi (405-418) the Shâman _K_i-fâ-ling brought from Khoten to Nanking, the southern capital, the Hwâ-yen Sûtra in 36,000 gâthâs, and translated it. This may be the Buddhâvata_m_saka-sûtra, called the Ta-fang-kwang-fo-fa-yan-king (Beal’s “Catalogue,” pp. 9, 10). This translator is not mentioned in the K’ai-yuen-lu. In 420 the Tsin dynasty came to an end. The Emperor Thai-wu (424-452), of the N. Wei dynasty, persecuted the Buddhists, 446; but from the year 452 they were tolerated. This dynasty lasted from 386 to 535, when it was divided into two. In 458 there was a conspiracy under Buddhist influences, and more stringent laws were enforced against them. In 460 five Buddhists arrived in China from Ceylon, _viâ_ Tibet. Two of them, Yashaita, and Vudanandi, brought images.(104) In 502 a Hindu translated Mahâyâna books, called Fixed Positions and Ten Positions.(105) During the dynasties of _Kh_î (479-502), Liang (502-557), and _Kh_in (557-589), many famous Shâmans came to China, and translated books.
