### [6.96](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2000.6.96)

舉：「昔高麗國來錢唐，刻觀音聖像，及舁上舡，竟不能動，因請入明州開元寺供養。後有設問：『無剎不現身，聖像為甚不去高麗國？』」

> He cited: "In the past, \[people from\] the kingdom of Goryeo came to Qiantang and carved a sacred image of Avalokiteśvara. When it was carried onto the boat, it could not be moved at all. Consequently, they invited it into Kaiyuan Monastery in Mingzhou to make offerings to it. Later, someone posed a question: 'There is no land in which \[Avalokiteśvara\] does not manifest a body—why did the sacred image not go to the kingdom of Goryeo?'"
