From childhood she ate vegetarian food and practiced buddhamanasikāra. After marrying into the Zhang family, her one-pointed mind did not alter; she gave away grain and lent quilts to relieve hunger and cold. Later, experiencing a minor illness, she applied herself to buddhamanasikāra with even greater vigor. Suddenly, she saw the Buddhas, bodhisattvas, and the sacred assembly of devas appear universally before her eyes, along with a thousand points of lamplight, strung together like a rainbow bridge. That very day, she passed away in the auspicious posture. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.205](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.2.205) - [Next: 2.207](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.2.207) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072~en-mt.2.206) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.2.206](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2072.2.206) · Pramāṇa
