For her deceased husband she wished to copy the Lotus Sūtra, so she hired a scribe for one hundred cash to copy it in a clean room. An ox arrived and died before the copying room. The concubine was alarmed and amazed by this wonder. In a dream a śramaṇa appeared and said to the woman: “The ox was your husband. Because he had taken grain from another’s field, he received the body of an ox, serving as a beast of burden for the landowner. Now, because of the copying of the Wonderful Dharma, he has cast off that body and been reborn in heaven, nothing more.” > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 7.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068.7.61) - [Next: 7.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068.7.63) - [Up: 7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068.7) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068~en-mt.7.62) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068.7.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2068.7.62) · Pramāṇa
