[Footnote 858: The identity of name seems due to a similarity of
metaphor. The Brahmajala sutta is a net of many meshes to catch all
forms of error. The Fan-wang-ching compares the varieties of Buddhist
opinion to the meshes of a net (De Groot, _l.c._ p. 26), but the net
is the all-inclusive common body of truth.]

reading of the Abhidharma is forbidden. Though this name is not
confined to the Hinayana, A-pi-t'an in Chinese seems to be rarely used
as a title of Mahayanist books.]

to be taken as the name of the author, but it is the designation of a
monastery used as a personal name. See Hackmann in _T'oung Pao_, 1908,
pp. 651-662. It is No. 1642 in Nanjio's Catalogue. He says that it has
been revised and altered.]

[Footnote 866: It is probable that the older Chinese monasteries
attempted to reproduce the arrangement of Nalanda and other Indian
establishments. Unfortunately Hsuan Chuang and the other pilgrims give
us few details as to the appearance of Indian monasteries: they tell
us, however, that they were surrounded by a wall, that the monks'
quarters were near this wall, that there were halls where choral
services were performed and that there were triads of images. But the
Indian buildings had three stories. See Chavannes, _Memoire sur les
Religieux Eminents_, 1894, p. 85.]
