Kāśyapa and Ānanda fully maintained the eighty thousand Dharma treasuries. In the Western Regions and the Eastern Xia, when eminent and virtuous people took pravrajyā, from their early years they all learned to recite and uphold \[texts\].

Buddhabhadra—here translated as 'Awakened Worthy'—had several fellow students who took recitation as their task; where the others took a month to master recitation, Buddhabhadra could remember it in a single day. His master sighed: 'One day of his study rivals thirty men.' Now, even the most foolish person, can he not memorize one phrase a day?
