三元品云。紫微宮青延生符書八方則八氣應之便成人。毀符以燒者。人隨烟化為氣。其文四萬劫一出。

The ‘Chapter on the Three Primes’ says: “When the Azure Tally for Extending Life of the Purple Subtlety Palace is written in the eight directions, the eight qi respond to it and immediately become human beings. If one ruins the tally and burns it, the person follows the smoke and transforms into qi. Its text appears once in forty thousand kalpas.”
