3.113

In the last ten days of the first month of winter in the second year of Kahō, I, through an official of the Western Government, met Liu Yu, a man of Song, who conveyed a message to Uicheon, Prince of Goryeo, requesting essential books on Sukhāvatī and sūtras, treatises, and commentaries corresponding to Amitābha's practices and vows. Afterwards, Zhe Yu kept the agreement, and on the twenty-third day (dingchou) of the third month in the second year of Eichō (dingchou), he sent thirteen works in twenty fascicles of books on Amitābha and Sukhāvatī obtained through Uicheon. Then, on the twenty-third day of the fifth month of the same year, they arrived at the Jōmyō-in of Kōfuku-ji. Earnest sincerity having been fulfilled, my pure aspiration was satisfied; thereupon, using those copies, they have been newly transcribed so that the wholesome seeds will never perish and my longtime wish is thereby fulfilled, intending it as a cause and condition for myself and others throughout the Dharma realm to be reborn in Sukhāvatī!
