In the academic community there exists the theory that the Ananta-Nirdesa was composed in China by Liu Qiu (438-495), the author of the text's preface. This article re-examines the question of whether the extant preface to the Zhu-wu-liang-yi-jing (注無量義經), was written by Liu Qiu and concludes that it was. Liu Qiu's writings survived until the time of Jingxi Zhan Ran (荊溪湛然, 711-782). Later, the preface alone was incorporated into the Chu-san-zang-ji-ji (出三藏記集) by Seng You (僧祐, 445-518) as the one to the Ananta-Nirdesa. The only way to determine if the Ananta-Nirdesa was written in China is through an analysis of the contents of the sutra; there are no other relevant extant sources. Therefore, it is against reason to claim that the Ananta-Nirdesa was written in China just due to the internal problems of the preface to the Zhu-wu-liang-yi-jing.
