元何曇迹。年十八。持菩薩戒念佛。一宵四鼓即起念誦。人云太早。答云。見佛金相。旛花來迎。遂脫去。

He Tanji of the Yuan dynasty was eighteen years old. He upheld the bodhisattva precepts and practiced buddhamanasikāra. One night at the fourth drum he arose to recite. People said it was too early; he replied, 'I see the Buddha's golden form, with banners and flowers coming to welcome me.' Thereupon he was liberated and passed away.
