六年戊辰　是年師年六十九示滅。準《實錄》等，天聖六年正月五日戌時，師端身跏坐，召大眾說法畢，驟稱彌陀佛號數百聲，奄然而逝。露龕示身，經二七日，爪髮俱長，顏貌如生。復過七日，遷于南門之外。將闍維次，先聞異香馥郁，火滅得舌根不壞，舍利五色不知其數（舍利猶藏以瑠璃瓶，奉安大悲閣上）。越五年，至明道二年七月二十九日，奉靈骨起塔于崇法院之左。

> Sixth year, wuchen: In this year, the Master manifested extinction at the age of sixty-nine. According to the Shilu and other sources, at the hour of xu on the fifth day of the first month of the sixth year of Tiansheng, the Master sat upright in full-lotus posture, summoned the assembly, and upon finishing expounding the Dharma, chanted the name of Amitābha Buddha abruptly several hundred times, passing away peacefully. His body was displayed in an open casket for twice seven days; his nails and hair both continued to grow, and his complexion was as though he were alive. After another seven days, he was transferred outside the South Gate. As cremation was about to take place, an extraordinary and rich fragrance was first smelled, and when the fire died down, his tongue was found intact and undamaged, along with five-colored relics beyond count (the relics are still stored in a lapis lazuli bottle and enshrined in the Great Compassion Pavilion). Five years later, on the twenty-ninth day of the seventh month of the second year of Mingdao, his sacred bones were enshrined and a stupa was erected to the left of the Chongfa Cloister.
