| | Soka Gakkai Dictionary of Buddhism: Supplemented Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law |
 | | One of the three extant Chinese versions of the Lotus Sutra, translated in 601 by Jnanagupta and Dharmagupta. |
 | | For example, the content of the "Devadatta" chapter in Kumarajiva's version is included in the preceding chapter, "Treasure Tower" (eleventh), in Jnanagupta and Dharmagupta's translation; accordingly the Supplemented Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law has only twenty-seven chapters while the Lotus Sutra of the Wonderful Law has twenty-eight. |
 | | Furthermore, the "Parable of the Medicinal Herbs" chapter of the Jnanagupta-Dharmagupta version contains an additional parable not found in Kumarajiva's translation. |
