3.11

【Sarvadā】The Xiyu ji states: "In the language of Tang, this means 'Giver of All'; it was the title of the Tathāgata when he formerly practiced the bodhisattva path. Fleeing enemies and abandoning his kingdom, he traveled secretly and arrived at this Mahāvana-saṅghārāma (in Tang, 'Great Forest'). Meeting a poor brāhmaṇa who came begging, he had the brāhmaṇa bind him and take him captive to the enemy king, hoping the brāhmaṇa would use the reward to turn it into charitable giving."
