Fó shuō Yùyēnǚ jīng 佛說玉耶女經

Sūtra of the Lay-Sister Sujātā (parallel to Ekottara-āgama 51.9, T144 / T146 / T147) Anonymous (失譯), conventionally attached to the Western Jìn 西晉 catalogue

About the work

A single-fascicle anonymous Chinese translation of the discourse on the seven kinds of wife addressed by the Buddha to the daughter-in-law of Anāthapiṇḍika named Yùyē 玉耶 (Sujātā). T145 is the first of two consecutive Taishō entries (a, b) — sister-versions T142a and T142b (= T146).

Prefaces

The text bears no preface or postface. The only paratext is the catalogue rubric printed at the head: 「失譯人名附西晉錄」.

Abstract

The Western Jìn (265–317) ascription is a catalog-tradition assignment. The defensible bracket is recorded in the frontmatter. The Indic source is presumed lost.
