On the tenth day of the seventh month in the eleventh year of the Hongwu reign, Zongle, Abbot of the Tianjie Shanshi Chan Monastery, and Ruqi, Abbot of the Yanfu Teaching Monastery, presented the newly commented Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra for imperial inspection at the Pavilion of Western Splendour, together with Li Yong, Director of the Directorate of Merit Evaluation, and other officials.

Let woodblocks be cut immediately and printed for circulation, instructing all monks throughout the realm to lecture on it and study it. Respect this."
