The Emperor ordered the monk Qiyan to supply workers to restore and embellish them, totaling 17,339 images. ○ In the ninth month it did not rain. An edict summoned the monk Zhiwu of Mount Gui in Sizhou to enter the capital and reside at Kaibao Monastery to pray for rain. Zhiwu had previously prayed for rain in Sizhou with efficacious results, having cut off one of his arms. When it came to this occasion, he said again, "If it rains within seven days, I will sacrifice another arm." On the fifth day, there was heavy rain, and he severed his arm. The Emperor sent an envoy to bestow medicine. Zhiwu said, "There is no harm." People saw that the severed arm did not bleed, and were greatly amazed. The governor of Sizhou and the people of the commandery all dreamed that Sangha told them: "Wu is one of the five hundred arhats, who came here to save the world." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 44.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.44.37) - [Next: 44.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.44.39) - [Up: 44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.44) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035~en-mt.44.38) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.44.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.44.38) · Pramāṇa
