佛祖統紀 35.69

35.69

In the fourth year, the twenty-third patriarch, Āryasiṃha, wandered and taught until he arrived in the country of Jibin (Kaśmīra). There was a non-Buddhist who falsely assumed the guise of a monk, using illusionist arts to enter the royal palace and violate the royal consorts. The king said in anger, 'I faithfully serve the Three Jewels, yet why do the monks insult me so?' He immediately destroyed monasteries and harmed monks. Grasping his sword, he went in person to the Venerable One and beheaded the master. White milk gushed upward several feet. The king's arm immediately fell off, and seven days later he died suddenly. (The detailed deeds from the first patriarch Kāśyapa down to Siṃha are fully recorded above in the record of the Twenty-Four Patriarchs of the West.)
