己酉景龍三年。年召道岸律師入宮。為妃主受歸戒。圖戒形林光宮御製贊曰。戒珠皎潔。慧流清淨。身局靈篇。心融入定。學妙真宗。觀通實性。維持法務。綱紀德政。律藏冀其傳芳。像教因而光盛。玄宗開元五年師入滅。

In the jiyou year, the third year of Jinglong, Vinaya Master Da'an was summoned into the palace to administer the refuges and precepts to the imperial consorts and princesses. An image of the precept platform was painted in Linguang Palace, and an imperial encomium was composed, reading: 'The precept pearl is gleaming and pure, / The stream of wisdom is limpid and clear. / His body is disciplined by the sacred scriptures, / His mind merges into meditative absorption. / In study he masters the true tradition, / In contemplation he penetrates the real nature. / Upholding affairs of the Dharma, / Bringing order through virtuous governance. / May the Vinaya Piṭaka transmit its fragrance through him, / And the Semblance Teaching thereby flourish in brightness.' In the fifth year of Kaiyuan under Xuanzong, the Master entered extinction.
