高僧傳 10.6

10.6

至元康八年端坐從化，弟子依西國法闍維之。焚燎累日，而屍猶坐火中，水不灰燼，乃移還石室內。後西域人竺定字安世，晉咸和中往其國，親自觀視，屍儼然平坐，已三十餘年。定後至京，傳之道俗。

In the eighth year of the Yuankang era, he passed away sitting upright. His disciples cremated (jhāpita) him according to the customs of the Western Countries. The fire blazed for days on end, yet the corpse remained seated in the flames and would not turn to ashes, so they moved it back inside the stone cave. Later, Zhu Ding, styled Anshi, a man of the Western Regions, went to that country during the Xianhe era of the Jin and viewed it in person; the corpse was sitting erect and dignified, after more than thirty years. Ding later came to the capital and recounted this to the clergy and laity.
