According to Nattier, Harrison "expresses reservations" concerning the Akṣohhya-vyūha (T313), and considers that T418 is the product of revision and does not date from Lokakṣema's time. Conversely, Harrison considers that the following ought to be considered genuine: T624 伅真陀羅所問如來三昧經 Druma-kinnara-rāja-paripṛcchā-sūtra A characteristic of Lokakṣema's translation style was the extensive transliteration of Indic terms and his retention of India stylistic features such as long sentences. He typically rendered Indic verse as Chinese prose, making no attempt to capture the meter. Based on evidence from Chinese catalogues of texts, Nattier suggests that T224 and T418 are representative of Lokakṣema and might stand as "core texts", i.e. as representative of his style of translating, although both show some signs of later editing. A second tier of texts—T280, T350, T458, and T807—all strongly resemble Lokakṣema's core texts, though with occasional anomalies. T624 and T626 form a third tier with more deviations from the distinctive style of Lokakṣema. If T313 was indeed a translation by Lokakṣema, it has been extensively revised by an unknown editor, though the prose sections are closer to his style than the verse. Lost works Several translations attributed to Lokakṣema have been lost: Shoulengyan jing (a version of the Suramgama-samādhi-siitra, already lost in Sengyou's time) Guangming sanmei jing "Sutra on the Samadhi of Luminosity" Hu banniehuan jing "The Hu Parinirvāṇa Sutra" Bo benjing ("The Original *Puṣya Sutra") See also History of Buddhism Buddhist texts Silk Road transmission of Buddhism References Bibliography Nattier, Jan. 2008.
