宋僧藏。汾州人。一生不受道俗禮拜。專修淨土將終。天樂次第來迎。皆不赴。及西方佛至。別眾而化。

The monk Zang of the Song was a native of Fenzhou. Throughout his life he did not accept prostrations from monastics or layfolk, dedicating himself exclusively to cultivating the Pure Land. When he was about to die, heavenly music came sequentially to welcome him, but he did not go. When the Buddha of the Western Direction arrived, he took leave of the assembly and passed away.
