There is a manuscript of volume 21 of the Kegon gokyō kenjōshō 華厳五教賢聖章 in the Tōdaiji Library. This text was written by Gyōnen 凝然 (1240–1321) in 1277, and the manuscript was transcribed in 1368. Gyōnen’s Kegon gokyō kenjōshō has not yet been studied.
In this paper, I introduce an outline and the contents of the Kegon gokyō kenjōshō, and point out the relationship with Gyōnen’s Gokyōshō Tsūroki 五教章通路記,Sōshō’s 宗性 (1202–1278) Kegonshū Kōkunshō 華厳宗香薫抄,and Zhizhou’s智周 (668–723) Dasheng Rudao cidi大乗入道次第.What is especially important is the way that Gyōnen and Sōshō cited their sources. It is possible that Gyōnen wrote the Kegon gokyō kenjōshō based on Sōshō’s lectures on Fazang’s Huayanjing tanxuanji 華厳経探玄記.
