The Emperor ordered eminent monks to reorganize the Great Canon, distinguish Mahāyāna from Hīnayāna, re-inscribe the prestigious titles, and distribute them throughout the realm. The Emperor ordered virtuous masters from various mountains to collate and supplement the ancient canon of Hongfa Monastery, thoroughly renewing and adorning it so that it would be transmitted without end. The Emperor printed thirty-six editions of the Great Canon, sending envoys to distribute and bestow them upon foreign lands that submitted, so that all might behold the sun of the Buddha.
