He secretly cultivated the practice of the Pure Land, not speaking of it for twenty years. He was on good terms only with Military Commissioner Ren, to whom he said, 'I, Biancai, will certainly be born in the Pure Land, the appointed time being ten years from now.' He sent a disciple to report to Commissioner Ren, saying, 'The time previously agreed upon has arrived.' When Commissioner Ren reached the gate, Biancai said, 'I am departing!' He sat cross-legged and passed away. The assembly heard celestial music arriving from the west, and an extraordinary fragrance filled the air. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 27.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27.56) - [Next: 27.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27.58) - [Up: 27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035~en-mt.27.57) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [往生集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1.129) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27.57) · Pramāṇa
