《资治通鉴·唐纪·唐纪五十六》
假如佛本身尚在人世，接受本国的命令前来京城朝拜，陛下宽容地接待他，只不过在宣政殿见他一面，在礼宾院设上一宴，赐给他衣服一套，派人护卫他走出国境，是不会让他迷惑众人的。
假如其身尚在，奉国命来朝京师，陛下容而接之，不过宣政一见，礼宾一设，赐衣一袭，卫而出之于境，不令惑众也。
If the Buddha himself were still alive and came to the capital to pay homage to the court of his own country, the emperor could receive him with tolerance, only meet him in the Xuanzheng Hall, hold a banquet in the Li Bingyuan, give him a set of clothes, and send someone to escort him out of the country, so that he would not be allowed to confuse the people.
