Details
Lìyán' (利言; fl. 726-788) was a Buddhist monk (沙門) from Kucha. According to the Biographies of eminent monks compiled during the Song period (T 2061, 50:804b17 ff.), he was originally from Kucha. He was ordained in 726, and is said to have mastered a wide range of Buddhist texts and the Chinese classics. He acted an amanuensis to the Indian Buddhist monk Dharmacandra (Fǎyuè 法月; 653–743 CE) when he translated Pǔbiànzhìcáng bōrěbōluómìduō xīnjīng (普遍智藏般若波羅蜜多心經; T 252), a version of the Prajñāpāramitā-hṛdaya-sūtra in 738 CE (T 2157; 55.748c05).
