Their merit in aiding and benefiting subtly reaches the living and the dead. The divine traces and surviving monuments can truly be relied upon. Let statues and images be erected and adorned, and monasteries repaired and arranged in the capital, so that those with faith may have a place to dwell." That year they began constructing a five-storied stupa, a Vulture Peak, and a Sumeru Hall, embellishing them with paintings, and separately built lecture halls and meditation chambers, so that the śramaṇas' seats and dwellings were fully provided. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104.1.21) - [Next: 1.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104.1.23) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104~en-mt.1.22) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [佛祖歷代通載](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2036.7.48) — Classical Chinese - [破邪論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2109.1.33) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104.1.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2104.1.22) · Pramāṇa
