First sentence: Formerly, when Fa Hsien was at Ch'ang-an, he was distressed at the imperfect state of the Disciplines; and, subsequently, in the second year of Hung Shih, the Chihai of the cycle, he agreed with Hui Ching, Tao Cheng, Hui Ying, Hui Wei and others to go to India and try to obtain these Disciplines.
