1.6
Zhu Dharmarakṣa was also a native of Madhyadeśa. He stated of himself that he had memorized tens of thousands of passages from sūtras and treatises, and was a teacher to scholars in Tianzhu. When Cai Yin had arrived in that country, Dharmarakṣa joined Śeṣamātaṅga in agreeing to travel and convert, and so accompanied him. Encountering hindrance from his disciples there, who tried to detain him, Dharmarakṣa arrived by taking a secret route. Having reached Luoyang, he stayed together with Mātaṅga, and in a short while became proficient in the Han language.
