Abstract

This paper focuses on a postscript of episode 2 “Gyōki Bosatsu 行基菩薩” of the Hokke Genki 法華験記 written by Chingen 鎮源.This postscript is not only a simple commentary but also has a storyline of a miraculous story about revelation in a dream and motifs of the Lotus Sūtra. So we may regard both episode 2, which was characterized by its postscript, and the postscript itself, as new tales of the Lotus Sūtra 法華説話.This postscript is also a description which Chingen narrated about his editing activity of the Genki as a miraculous story and summation.
