The clouds and rain have deigned to descend, and I have erroneously been moistened by the copious favor. The glorious mandate is exalted and generous, and my spirit shakes with awe. Xuanzang was fortunate to encounter the civilization of this enlightened age, and early joined the companions of quiescent minds. My threefold karma is without merit, and the four kindnesses have not been repaid. Yet the imperial regard did not abandon me, and gracious favor descended from above. This garment of forbearance holds the radiant colors of drifting twilight; this knife of wisdom is sharper than a jade-cutting blade. I shall respectfully wear it to subdue the māra of defilements, and gird it to sever the net of worldly toils. I fear evoking criticism from others, and dread that my emptiness and sparseness have presumed upon imperial favor. Having unduly received such extraordinary courtesy, I feel ashamed and apprehensive, unable to bear my extreme awe and gratitude. I respectfully submit this memorial to present my thanks. Defiling the heavenly illumination, I am deeply seized with trembling. Respectfully submitted. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.12](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119.1.12) - [Next: 1.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119.1.14) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119~en-mt.1.13) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119.1.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2119.1.13) · Pramāṇa
