大唐西域記 9.46

9.46

觀自在菩薩像南窣堵波中，有如來三月之間剃剪髮、爪。有嬰疾病，旋繞多愈。其西垣外池側窣堵波，是外道執雀於此問佛死生之事。次東南垣內五十餘步，有奇樹，高八九尺，其幹兩披，在昔如來嚼楊枝棄地，因植根柢，歲月雖久，初無增減。次東大精舍，高二百餘尺，如來在昔於此四月說諸妙法。次北百餘步精舍中，有觀自在菩薩像，淨信之徒興供養者所見不同，莫定其所，或立門側，或出簷前，諸國法俗咸來供養。

To the south of this statue is a stūpa, in which are remains of Buddha's hair and nails cut during three months. Those persons afflicted with children's complaints, coming here and turning round religiously, are mostly healed. To the west of this, outside the wall, and by the side of a tank, is a stūpa. This is where a heretic, holding a sparrow in his hand, asked Buddha questions relating to death and birth. To the south-east about 50 paces, within the walls, is an extraordinary tree, about eight or nine feet in height, of which the trunk is twofold. When Tathāgata of old time was in the world, he flung his tooth-cleaner (dantakāshtha) on the ground here, where it took root. Although many months and years have elapsed since then, the tree neither decreases nor increases. Next to the east there is a great vihāra about 200 feet in height. Here Tathāgata, residing for four months, explained various excellent laws. After this, to the north 100 paces or so, is a vihāra in which is a figure of Kwan-tsz'-tsai Bodhisattva. The disciples of pure faith, who offer their religious gifts, do not all see the place he occupies alike; it is not fixed. Sometimes he (i.e., the figure) seems to be standing by the side of the door; sometimes he goes out in front of the eaves. Religious people, both clerics and laics, from all parts come together in numbers to offer their gifts.
