With the needle of Xun and thread of Qin, it was stitched and patterned; like plain silk of Lu and fine silk of Qi, it took on colour from fragrant paste. First opening the chest, one sees again the fields of Śrāvastī; without leaving the courtyard, one sits viewing the balks and ridges of the Southern Mountain. I humbly consider that the light and soft three-zhu garment was hailed as fine clothing in the Śuddhāvāsa heaven, and the immense magnificence worth a thousand pieces of gold was fit to be used by Kāśyapa. Yet vast grace has specifically covered, gathering upon this foolish person. When frost fell, clothes were bestowed, and special kindness immediately reached me; joy overflows the cliff of my heart, as if dropped from mid-air, suddenly forgetting myself, even thinking it came from a treasure branch. Vermilion and green in four colours are not affairs of leaving the world; two leaves with hooked balustrades—the extraordinary grace is truly magnificent! Unable to bear the utmost gratitude, I respectfully present this memorial of thanks. Respectfully presented. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 28.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.28.58) - [Next: 28.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.28.60) - [Up: 28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.28) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103~en-mt.28.59) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.28.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.28.59) · Pramāṇa
