昔佛滅度三百年中。阿輸闍國有貧女。六親俱無。拾薪活命。餘暇受持勝鬘經。貧女為薪更入山。身疲不能還去。而臥山中講經。爾時國王。遊獵入山。忽見此女。雲蓋其身。王異之近見。端正女人。歡喜還宮。立為皇后。其國此典久絕不行。當於此時。再興求法者。於此得此經本矣。

> Anciently, within three hundred years of the Buddha's parinirvāṇa, in the country of Ayodhyā, there was a poor woman who had none of the six kinds of kin; she gathered firewood to survive. In her spare time, she accepted and upheld the Śrīmālā-sūtra. The poor woman entered the mountains once more for firewood; exhausted in body, she could not return, and lay in the mountains reciting the sūtra. At that time, the king of the country entered the mountains on a hunt, and suddenly saw this woman, with clouds canopying her body. The king marveled at it and approached to see an upright and fair woman. Rejoicing, he took her back to the palace and established her as his empress. In that country, this scripture had long been lost and unpracticed. At this time, it was revived by those who sought the Dharma, and they obtained the text of this sūtra through this \[woman\].
