Based on four photos collected in second volume of the Dunhuang miji yingpian ji 敦煌秘笈影片集 (The collected photos of Dunhuang rare texts), published by Kyōu Shooku 杏雨書屋, this paper examines the content and nature of a Dunhuang handwritten text, numbered yu(羽)-100, originally collected by Li Shengtuo 李盛鐸. It also questions its title suggested by Dunhuang miji yingpian ji. My conclusion is that this handwritten text does not have the pattern and form characteristic of the regular Sutra-preaching text (jiangjing wen 講經文), which makes it inappropriate to entitle it as ''untitled sutra-preaching text''. This handwritten text gathers twenty-two kinds of documents and seventy-four Buddhism-related materials. Given third four of them are Buddhist verses which are easy to compose, chant, and recite, the chance is high that they are one miscellaneous collection used as reference. Moreover, given that over seventy percent of their quotations are from Mahayana sutras, it might be more fitting to name the handwritten text Dasheng fojiao wenxian huichao 大乘佛 教文獻匯抄 (A collection of Mahayana texts). |
