(十九 己酉) 詔諸路置天慶觀○(先是。楊礪充襄王府記室舍。夢至一大殿上。真人服王者衣冠秉圭南向。前有案置籍錄人姓名。礪見已名居上。因請示休咎。真人指一人曰。此來和天尊。異日為汝主也。礪問之。天尊笑曰此去四十年。汝功成。余名亦顯。礪而志之。及充襄王府記室。參軍追而語諸人曰。吾今見襄王儀貌。即來和天尊也。上即位。後多好神仙道家之術焉)。

(19. Ji-you [1009 CE]) An edict ordered all circuits to establish Tianqing Abbeys. (Prior to this, when Yang Li served as the Director of the Palace Writers' Office of the Prince of Xiang's mansion, he dreamt of arriving at a great palace hall, where a perfected person wearing royal robes and headgear held a jade tablet facing south. Before him was a table bearing a register recording people's names. Li saw his own name near the top, and thereupon asked for an omen of his fortunes. The perfected person pointed to someone and said, 'This is the Heavenly Venerable of Coming Harmony. On a future day, he will be your ruler.' Li asked him about it, and the Heavenly Venerable smiled, saying, 'Forty years from now, your merit will be accomplished, and my name will also become renowned.' Li remembered this. When he served as the Director of the Palace Writers' Office and Military Adviser in the Prince of Xiang's mansion, he recalled this and told others, 'Seeing the Prince of Xiang's countenance today, he is none other than the Heavenly Venerable of Coming Harmony.' After His Majesty ascended the throne, he was fond of the arts of immortals and Daoists.)
