The Emperor said, "I respectfully consider what the scriptures state: when the Buddha was a king on the causal stage, he killed five hundred brahmins without violating the precepts. Now Jiang Bin's discourse on the Kaitian [jing] is an illicit book that bewilders and disrupts the imperial court. If he is not beheaded now, it will mislead the future no small amount." The Dharma Master remonstrated earnestly, and Jiang Bin was spared from death, being banished instead to Mayi.
