There have been many efforts of proving Mahāyāna's orthodoxy throughout the history of Mahāyāna Buddhism. In Mahāyānasaṃ- grahavṛtti(攝大乘論釋) of Asvabhāva(無性), we can find some syllogi- stic expressions proving Mahāyāna's orthodoxy. But those express- ions fall in the fallacy of anaikāntika. So Jayasena(勝軍) who was the teacher of Hsüan-Tsang designed new syllogism proving Mahā- yāna's orthodoxy. That is as follows.pratijñā: All the Mahāyāna scriptures are included in Buddha- vacana. hetu: Because they are not included in 'non-Buddhavacana admi -tted by both parties'. dṛṣṭānta: Like Aṅguttara-Āgama etc.But his pupil Hsüan-Tsang pointed out the fallacy of anaikāntika in this syllogism by presenting the counter-example of Abhidharma -jñānaprasthāna-śāstra(發智論) and designed new syllogism as follows. pratijñā: All the Mahāyāna scriptures are included in Buddhava- cana. hetu: Because they are not included in 'non-Buddhavacana admitted by this party'. dṛṣṭānta: Like Aṅguttara-Āgama etc.In Pan-Bi-Ryang-ron Won-Hyo criticized this syllogism. Won-Hyo also pointed out the fallacy of anaikāntika in this syllogism. To show this fallacy Won-Hyo took Rūpa(色) and Ghāna(香) etc. as the counter-examples.Finally Won-Hyo made himself an syllogism proving Mahāyā- na's orthodoxy as follows.pratijñā: The teachings of all the Mahāyāna scriptures are reaso- nable. hetu: Because they are teachings not included in 'non-Buddha- vacana admitted by both parties'. dṛṣṭānta: Like Aṅguttara-Āgama etc.Here Won-Hyo means that the orthodoxy of Mahāyāna should be decided not by proving whether they are preached by Gautama Buddha himself or not, but by proving whether they are reasonable or not. So we can guess that Buddha conceived by Won-Hyo was not the Nirmāṇakāya but the Dharmakāya.
