Abstract:
This study examines the biography of the monk Baoyun 寶雲 (376?-449) and lists all the
titles of the translation projects in which Baoyun was involved. By comparing the information provided
by different Buddhist catalogues, several discrepancies between the information on Baoyun
provided by Buddhist bibliographer Sengyou 僧祐 (445-518) and by later accounts became evident.
This study contextualizes the life of Baoyun in a broader historical perspective and presents the life
of a monk who was a companion of Faxian 法顯 (336?-422) in his famous journey to the west, fluent
in Indic languages, and a proficient translator.
