佛祖統紀 47.44

47.44

六年四月。上與群臣論東都治亂消長之數。上曰。朕每念治平已前國家無事。自王安石首亂成法。繼之以章子厚（名惇避諱）蔡京之徒。至靖康輔臣率皆庸繆。以致大壞。蔡京謫死湖湘四十二年。遷葬之日皮肉銷盡。獨於胸上隱起卍字。若鐫刻然。按佛經如來具三十二相。胸題卍字。是其一。由戒定慧積修所成。其相明妙。魔王亦有三十二相。其相稍晦。今京相如此。豈非魔乎。又豈非天地大數產此魔物為生民之禍乎（兩朝事鑑容齋三筆）○十一月撰德殿親灑靈感觀音之寺及靈感觀音寶殿。以賜上竺（各六字為額）。

In the sixth year, in the fourth month, the Emperor discussed with his ministers the cycles of order and disorder, rise and fall, of the Eastern Capital. The Emperor said, "Whenever I recall the time before the Zhiping reign, the state was free from troubles. Since Wang Anshi first threw the established laws into disorder, followed by the like of Zhang Zihou (named Dun; avoided here as a taboo) and Cai Jing, down to the Jingkang era, the assisting ministers were all mediocre and erroneous, bringing about great ruin. Cai Jing was banished and died in Huxiang forty-two years ago. On the day his remains were relocated for reburial, his skin and flesh had completely dissolved away, yet on his chest there faintly rose a svastika character, as though carved. According to the Buddhist sūtras, the Tathāgata possesses the thirty-two marks, and having a svastika on the chest is one of them. It is formed through the accumulated cultivation of discipline, concentration, and wisdom; its mark is clear and wondrous. The demon king also possesses thirty-two marks, but his marks are somewhat dark and obscured. Now Jing had such a mark; was he not a demon? And was it not the great decree of Heaven and Earth that produced this demonic creature to bring disaster upon the living people?" (Liangchao shijian, Rongzhai sanbi.) In the eleventh month, in the Xuande Hall, the Emperor personally inscribed plaques for the Monastery of the Efficacious Guanyin and the Precious Hall of the Efficacious Guanyin, bestowing them upon Upper Tianzhu (each consisting of six characters for the plaque).
