He cited: "Mañjuśrī ordered Sudhana to gather medicine, saying: 'Bring back whatever is medicine.' Sudhana gathered everywhere; there was nothing that was not medicine. He returned and reported: 'There is nothing that is not medicine.' Mañjuśrī said: 'Bring back what is medicine.' Sudhana then picked up a blade of grass and handed it to Mañjuśrī. Mañjuśrī held it up, showed it to the assembly, and said: 'This medicine can kill people, and it can also bring people to life.'"
