一二、唐長安積善寺尼淨真傳
12. Biography of Nun Jingzhen from Jishan Temple in Chang'an, Tang Dynasty
淨真，住長安積善寺，衲衣乞食，一生無瞋。誦金剛經十萬徧，專精念佛。顯慶五年，染疾，告弟子云：「五月內十度見阿彌陀佛，兩度見極樂世界，寶蓮華上童子遊戲。又有聖僧五度授記曰：『我當作佛。』又曰：『吾得上品往生。』」跏趺而終，經宿卻醒，語弟子曰：「吾得菩薩位也。徧歷十方，供養諸佛。」言訖而終，光照於寺。
Jingzhen lived at the Jishan Temple in Chang'an. He wore patched robes and lived on alms, never harboring anger throughout his life. He recited the Diamond Sutra one hundred thousand times and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the practice of Buddha-remembrance.
In the fifth year of the Xianqing era, he fell ill and told his disciples, "Within the past five months, I have seen Amitabha Buddha ten times and the Land of Ultimate Bliss twice, with children playing on jeweled lotus flowers. Moreover, a holy monk has given me predictions five times, saying, 'You shall become a Buddha,' and also, 'I shall attain rebirth in the highest grade.'"
He then passed away seated in meditation. After a night, he revived and said to his disciples, "I have attained the stage of a bodhisattva. I have traveled throughout the ten directions, making offerings to all Buddhas." After speaking these words, he passed away, and a radiant light illuminated the temple.
