2.222

宋廣平陳氏。剪髮為出家相。朝夕念佛。四眾稱為道者。後病中集緇素念佛。兩日忽合掌。泊然而化。

Lady Chen of Guangping in the Song dynasty cut her hair, adopting the outward appearance of one who has taken pravrajyā. Morning and evening she practiced buddhamanasikāra, and the fourfold assembly called her a practitioner of the Way. Later, while ill, she gathered monastics and laity to practice buddhamanasikāra. Two days later, she suddenly joined her palms, and peacefully transformed.
