He admired and studied the Mahāyāna, investigating sūtras and treatises under the Tripiṭaka Master Xuanzang, and also took part in the translations at Yuhua Palace. When the \*Mahāprajñāpāramitā-sūtra\* was near completion, they jointly requested to translate the \*Ratnakūṭa-sūtra\*, but Xuanzang declined in exhaustion. Thereupon, Xuanjue dreamt of a stūpa, ornate, tall, and magnificent, suddenly collapsing to the ground; he started awake and told Xuanzang. Xuanzang said, 'This does not concern your own person; it is merely an omen of my passing.' Xuanjue grieved silently and in distress, urging the companions in the Dharma to vie in seeking medicine. Xuanjue's eventual end was not known. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.26](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.2.26) - [Next: 2.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.2.28) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061~en-mt.2.27) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.2.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2061.2.27) · Pramāṇa
