2.9

雜說云「溫州民間有一女子，忽坐亡，後於灰骨器中乃生青蓮華一朵，眾人奇之。」時智覺壽禪師聞見，說偈讚之曰：「性心之門，千聖同倫。神歸淨土，蓮出灰盆。」

Miscellaneous Accounts states: "Among the common folk of Wenzhou, there was a woman who suddenly passed away while sitting. Later, in the vessel containing her ash and bones, a blue lotus flower grew. The multitude found it extraordinary." At that time, Chan Master Zhijue Shou heard and saw it, and composed a verse in praise, saying:
"The gate of the mind's nature
Is shared in common with the thousand sages.
Her spirit returned to the Pure Land;
A lotus emerged from the basin of ash."
