佛祖統紀 27.35

27.35

Huicheng resided in Zhijiang, reciting the Amitābha Sūtra and cultivating the contemplation of the Western Pure Land. For thirty years, he constantly sat without lying down. Every time he entered meditative concentration, he saw the lotus dais and jeweled trees of the Pure Land. On the night of his death, someone dreamed of Cheng riding upon a lotus flower, faintly disappearing into the west.
