In the second year, the Confucian scholar Mouzi of Cangwu, seeing the world in disorder, had no desire to take office and focused his resolve intently on the Buddhist way. Yet the world mostly criticized him. Thereupon, he composed the Treatise Dispelling Doubts (Lihuo lun) as an admonition. His words state: 'The Buddha is the awakened one, just like the divine nature of the Three Sovereigns and the sagehood of the Five Emperors' (the text is found in the Tripitaka's Hongming ji).
