33 阿育王寺拜舍利
朝普陀竟，回宁波经阿育王寺，备火食。三元一月，拜舍利两藏用报父母劬劳之恩。相传育王所供舍利，乃释迦牟尼佛之真身，故人多发愿拜舍利。至天童寺，听讲《楞严宗通》毕，离去。
宣化偈曰：
舍利真身如来存，
留与斯世种福人。
不勤耕田何收获，
栽培灌溉莫偷闲。
Bowing to the relics at King Ashoka Temple
After his pilgrimage to P’u T’o Mountain, the Master returned to Ning Po,where he passed through King Ashoka Temple. He arranged for provisions at a cost of three yuan per month. Making obeisance to the relics and the two Pitikas (Mahayana and Hinayana), he sought to repay the toilsome labor and kindness of his parents. The sharira enshrined by King Ashoka are reputed to be those of the True Body of Shakyamuni Buddha, and therefore many people come to make vows and bow before the relics. The Master went on to T’ien T’ung Monastery, and after hearing an exposition of the Analytical Commentary on the Shurangama Sutra, continued on his way.
The verse says:
Within the Real Body’s sharira, the Tathagata is abiding.
They remain in the world and are conferred upon people who plant blessings.
If one does not plough one’s own fields, how can one reap a harvest?
Irrigate well, nourish and enrich, and do not steal time for leisure.
34 守戒律不欺暗室
拜舍利后乘船赴杭，朝三天竺各圣境，礼天朗长松。当搭船，时在三伏，人多船小，共宿一舱。与公为临铺，乃一青年女。夜深熟睡有人抚摸，惊醒视之，为裸体女，即趺坐持咒。唉，可不慎欤。
宣化偈曰：
同舟共济遇摩登，
不料金刚道业深。
跏趺端坐心止水，
任尔变化没奈何。
34 Upholding the moral precepts, he was not misled in the dark room
After paying his respects to the relics, the Master took a boat to Hangchou and visited the various sacred areas of San T’ien Chu Mountain. He bowed to Dharma Masters T’ien Lang (Bright Sky) and Ch’ang Sung (Tall Pine). the Master then boarded a boat. It being summer, the small boat was so crowded that all those aboard had to sleep in common quarters. Adjacent to the Master was a young woman. Late at night when he was sleeping soundly, he felt someone touching his body. Waking with a start, he saw the naked girl and immediately sat upright in the full-lotus position and recited mantras.Beware!
The verse says:
Travelling on the very same boat, the Master met Matangi’s daughter.
Unexpected was his Vajra-strength and so deep his karma in the Way,
That he sat upright in the Lotus posture, his mind like motionless water;
Whatever the transformation, it could not do anything to him.
