English version: In the Changsheng Hall (Hall of Eternal Life), they held recitations and prayers for the country. After more than seventy days in the palace, they were released. Each person was given thirty bolts of silk and twenty strings of tea. Later, they were divided into shifts, and were given seasonal clothing and materials for the three major festivals. In that year, Chancellor Du Huangshang and Chancellor Wei personally expressed their acceptance of the Abhisheka (灌顶, empowerment) and learned the practice of recitation. They requested again to inspect the temples, and the emperor ordered it to be done accordingly. He served as a senior monk (大德) at Guanyin Temple (Avalokiteśvara Temple). From the ninth year of the Zhenyuan era (793 AD) to the thirteenth year (797 AD), Yiheng, Yiyi, Yizheng, Yi□, Yicao, Yiyun, Zhixing, Yimin, Xingjian, Yuantong, Yilun, Yibo, Yirun, and lay disciples Wu Yin, Kai Pi, and others, about fifty people, studied the Dharma. In the fourteenth year of the Zhenyuan era (798 AD), there was a severe drought in May. In early May, they were ordered by the emperor to pray for rain for seven days in the inner Daoguan (道场, place for religious practice), focusing intently on recitation. The prayer for rain was answered. The emperor bestowed a bundle of silk and ten strings of tea. The monks expressed that they had no merit, and it was a blessing from heaven and the emperor's influence that brought the rain. The monks thanked the emperor for the silk and tea, and were extremely grateful. In the fifteenth year of the Zhenyuan era (799 AD), in late August, they performed blessings for the crown prince, who recovered in three days. Each was given twenty bolts of silk, fifty bolts of Wu silk, and twenty strings of tea. We, humble monks, thank the emperor for his compassionate gift of silk and tea, and are extremely grateful. On the sixteenth day of the eleventh month in the winter of the sixteenth year of the Zhenyuan era (800 AD), Jiao, the military protector of the Shenwei Army, invited the abbot to his military residence for offerings, and decorated the abbot's residence and sent it to the temple. In the eighteenth year (802 AD), the abbot's clan gradually became prominent, and he submitted a request to retire. The emperor granted his request and allowed him to return home, and ordered the temple to take good care of him. 'I wish him to be consistent to the end, and I cannot but agree with his request.' In the middle of August of that year, he gave up his robes and alms bowl, entrusting Yi Ming and seven others to inherit and use them. In the nineteenth year of the Zhenyuan era (803 AD), the Japanese monk Kukai (空海), by order of the emperor, presented the Kasaya (摩衲) and national credentials worth more than five hundred strings of cash to the abbot, using them all to decorate the Daoguan (道场, place for religious practice) for offerings, requesting to be taught the Garbhadhatu (大悲胎藏界) and Vajradhatu Mandalas (金刚界), as well as the Yoga teachings of the various deities, and fifty volumes of scriptures. Immediately, he saw the realm, the Sanskrit letter A (梵阿字) and the Sun and Moon Wheel (日月轮) appearing in his mouth. On the fifth day of the eighth month of the twenty-first year of the Zhenyuan era (805 AD), it was changed to the first year of the Yongzhen era (805 AD), twelve --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
