The article states

However, some scholars have suspected that instead of being translated, this text may have originated in China, since no Sanskrit manuscripts of this text have been found. Part of the reason for suspicion is that the text advocates filial piety, which was stereotypically associated with Chinese culture.

but there is no reference given for who believes this. The only reference stated does not discuss this sutra and comes to the conclusion that filial piety was not a Chinese aculturation of Buddhism but also existed in India.

What is page 68 here? Mahengrui1 (talk) 01:00, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
