In the twenty-eighth year, Dhyāna Master Xingsi of Qingyuan in Jizhou passed away while sitting. The Master received the Dharma from the Sixth Patriarch. During the reign of Emperor Xizong, he was posthumously conferred the title Dhyāna Master Hongji, and his stūpa named Guizhen. In the twenty-ninth year, Qi Huan, Surveillance Commissioner of Henan, said, 'The Supreme Path deserves reverence and should be looked up to. Yet [monks and priests] have not been spared flogging, which brings disgrace upon their decorum. If monks or Daoist priests commit offenses, it is requested that they be dealt with strictly according to the codes and regulations for monks and priests, and the local prefectures and counties must not arbitrarily execute punishments.' The memorial was approved. / Tripiṭaka Master Amoghavajra returned from Siṃhala to Guangzhou. Surveillance Commissioner Liu Juji requested him to establish an abhiṣeka ritual altar. Moving Mañjuśrī to manifest his body, he delivered people numbering in the tens of millions.
