He secretly cultivated the Pure Land for twenty years, never praising himself. He was only close with Lord Ren, the defender of the garrison, and told him: 'Cai will certainly be reborn in the Pure Land; the appointed time is within ten years.' One day, he ordered his disciple to inform Lord Ren, saying: 'What was previously appointed has arrived.' When Lord Ren arrived, Cai said: 'I am going!' He sat cross-legged and passed away. The assembly heard celestial music coming from the west, and an extraordinary fragrance diffused everywhere. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.128](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1.128) - [Next: 1.130](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1.130) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072~en-mt.1.129) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [佛祖統紀](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.27.57) — 志磐, Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1.129](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.1.129) · Pramāṇa
