An imperial edict stated: 'The foundation of the Śākya gate values purity and tranquility; how could impurity and confusion be fitting within Sanskrit monasteries? Now when we are promoting and expounding it, purity and strictness are especially required. It has been heard that at bodhimaṇḍas and vegetarian assemblies, men and women gather by night, which is a grave desecration and offers no benefit to cultivation and practice. Let the Office of Merits and the Ministry of Rites instruct all circuits to strictly prohibit this.' / An imperial decree placed both Buddhist monks and Daoist priests under the Commissioner of Merits. When leaving home to seek ordination, they were tested on their scriptural learning, and the Ministry of Rites issued their ordination certificates. / Three śramaṇas of Western Tianzhu—Kezhi, Fajian, and Zhenli—came to court; they were granted purple square robes. / The śramaṇa Sugata of Western Tianzhu arrived and presented relics and Mañjuśrī flowers; he was granted purple garments and gold coins. / In the sixth month, National Preceptor Deshao of Tiantai manifested nirvanic quiescence. A great star fell upon the mountain peak, and heavy snow fell from the sky. The Master had received the Dharma from Qingliang Fayan (the tenth generation below Qingyuan). / The śramaṇa Mīla and others of Western Tianzhu, fourteen people in total, came to court and were all granted purple garments.
