30.311

大誓憫塗炭。乘機入生死。中州法既弘。葛陂暴亦止。乳孔光一室。掌鏡徹千里。道盛呪蓮華。災生吟棘子。埋石緣雖謝。流沙化方始。

A great vow pitied those in distress; / taking the opportunity, he entered birth and death. / Once the Dharma spread in the Central Region, / violence at Gebo was brought to an end. / Light from his breast hole filled an entire chamber; / the mirror in his palm penetrated a thousand li. / When the Way flourished, he incanted lotus flowers; / when calamity arose, he chanted of brambles. / Though the conditions of burying the stone have ceased, / across the drifting sands his conversion has only begun.
