Several others also understood the Dharma. When the emperor heard \[of his passing\], he suspended court audiences for three days and bestowed silk, cloth, assorted goods, four hundred thousand cash, and more than two million cash for constructing a stupa. He ordered Commissioner of Merit Li Yuancong to supervise the funeral arrangements. Before Amoghavajra passed away, various monks dreamt that a jewel tower of a thousand fathoms collapsed, the new Mañjuśrī Pavilion fell into ruin, and a vajra scepter flew into the sky. Moreover, the rear pond of Xingshan Temple dried up for no apparent reason, the grove of bamboo bore fruit, and the flowers in the courtyard withered. On the sixth day of the seventh month, he was cremated; the emperor decreed that the high-ranking official Liu Xianhe go to the temple to make offerings, posthumously conferred the title of Minister of Works, and gave the posthumous name Tripiṭaka Master Da Bianzheng Guangzhi (Great Eloquent, Righteous, and Vastly Wise). When the fire went out, several hundred grains of relics were collected. Eighty grains were presented to the palace. His parietal bone was not burnt, and in the middle of it was a single relic, half-hidden and half-visible. An imperial decree ordered that a separate stupa be erected for it in his home compound. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.50](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.1.50) - [Next: 1.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.1.52) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061~en-mt.1.51) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.1.51](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.1.51) · Pramāṇa
