3.124

The śramaṇa Amoghavajra states: Recently, as the snowfall ceased at the end of last winter, and this spring the first month was already ending, the yang [influence] remained amiss. Every household was scorched and distressed, and the Imperial heart was filled with grief and care. Taking the blame upon himself for the people, with refined contemplation he prayed to Heaven. Indeed, answering at the proper time, spring moisture spread everywhere; the rivers and plains were drenched with downpours, and the grasses and trees flourished. Thus we know that the sagely virtue moves Heaven, and divine response is like an echo. When the One Man feels resonance, the myriad kinds [of beings] are revived. I cannot bear the height of my joy and delight. Respectfully, through the Palace Envoy Li Xiancheng, I present this memorial offering congratulations to be heard. The śramaṇa Amoghavajra, with genuine joy and genuine gratitude, respectfully speaks.
