右二部合七卷。孝武帝世。西域沙門功德直。以大明六年。於荊州為沙門釋玄暢譯。暢刊正文義辭旨婉密。而暢舒手出香掌中流水。莫之測也。後適成都止大石寺。即是阿育王塔。乃手自作金剛密迹等十六神像。傳至于今。

The above two texts in a total of seven fascicles. In the era of Emperor Xiaowu, śramaṇa Guṇabhadra [Gongdezhi / Guṇarata] of the Western Regions, in the sixth year of Daming, translated them in Jingzhou for śramaṇa Shi Xuanchang. Chang edited and corrected the text and meanings, and the phrasing was refined and concise. Chang could stretch out his hand and produce fragrance, and water flowed from his palm, which none could fathom. Later he went to Chengdu and stayed at Dashi Temple, which was the King Aśoka Stūpa; he personally fashioned with his own hands sixteen divine statues such as Guhyapada-vajra, which have been transmitted to this day.
