### [10.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2149.10.46)

永明中。會稽釋弘明者。止雲門寺。誦法華禮懺為業。每旦水瓶自滿。實諸天童子為給使也。又虎來入室伏床前。久之乃去。又見小兒來聽經云。昔是此寺沙彌。盜僧厨食。今墮圊中。聞上人誦經。故力來聽。願助方便免斯累也。明為說法領解方隱。後山精來惱。明乃捉取腰繩繫之。鬼謝遂放。因之永絕。

> During the Yongming era, there was Shi Hongming of Kuaiji. He resided at Yunmen Monastery and took reciting the Saddharmapuṇḍarīka-sūtra and practicing repentance as his vocation. Every morning, his water pitcher was naturally filled; in truth, celestial youths were serving as his attendants. Furthermore, a tiger entered his chamber and lay down before his bed, only departing after a long time. Moreover, he saw a child come to listen to the sūtra, who said: 'In the past, I was a novice monk in this monastery. I stole food from the monks' kitchen and have now fallen into the latrine. Hearing the Venerable One recite the sūtra, I have gathered my strength to come and listen. I pray that you will aid me through skillful means to be freed from this burden.' Ming preached the Dharma for him; once the child understood, he vanished. Later, a mountain spirit came to harass him; Ming seized the rope around his waist and tied it up. The spirit apologized, and he released it; after this, it ceased forever.
