Moreover, this dragon palace indeed stands upon the rainbow shore. The Grand Chancellor personally questioned me, and our worthy prefect does not grant this lightly to anyone. Come quickly! Come quickly! Rare indeed! Rare indeed! Lüqiu stepped forward and bowed; how could Fenggan be a gossip? Huangmei made the effort to come down the mountain to speak the gāthā of 'No Mind' on behalf of Mazu. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.1.7) - [Next: 1.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.1.9) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000~en-mt.1.8) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.1.8) · Pramāṇa
