Fayuan Zhulin

Fayuan zhulin ( Chinese 法苑珠林 , Pinyin fǎyuàn zhūlín, "pearl forest in the Dharma garden") is a collection of Buddhist texts compiled by Dao Shi (道世, a monk of the Tang period) around 668 AD , consisting of 100 juan (卷 "Chapter", "Scroll") exists. It contains Buddhist and other texts of the time, of which no other tradition is known, and is therefore an important source for this time in several scientific disciplines. In the Ming period it was used to reconstruct older Zhiguai collections.
