35.69

四年。二十三祖師子尊者。遊化至罽賓國。有外道詐為僧形。以幻術入王宮奸犯妃后。王怒曰。吾信事三寶。而沙門何多辱我。即毀寺害僧。自秉劍至尊者所斬師。白乳涌高數尺。王臂尋墮。七日暴死(自迦葉始祖至師子事迹之詳。備在西上二十四祖紀)。

In the fourth year, the twenty-third patriarch, Āryasiṃha, wandered and taught until he arrived in the country of Jibin (Kaśmīra). There was a non-Buddhist who falsely assumed the guise of a monk, using illusionist arts to enter the royal palace and violate the royal consorts. The king said in anger, 'I faithfully serve the Three Jewels, yet why do the monks insult me so?' He immediately destroyed monasteries and harmed monks. Grasping his sword, he went in person to the Venerable One and beheaded the master. White milk gushed upward several feet. The king's arm immediately fell off, and seven days later he died suddenly. (The detailed deeds from the first patriarch Kāśyapa down to Siṃha are fully recorded above in the record of the Twenty-Four Patriarchs of the West.)
