In the Song dynasty, the daughter of the Sun family of Qiantang constantly practiced buddhamanasikāra and held dhāraṇīs. Due to illness, she invited Vinaya Master Qingzhao. When he arrived, she told him, "Bedridden with long illness, I loathe the world and wish to seek rebirth." The master explained to her the causes and conditions for the Pure Land, and she was overjoyed. That night she dreamed that the master brought a cup of medicine, which she took; she broke into a sweat, and both body and mind felt light and peaceful. Three days later, she said to her attendants, "The Venerable Kāśyapa has come here with a fine golden lotus seat." She then closed her eyes, formed a mudrā, and passed away.
