This passage recounts the story of a young boy named A Xi who, in a dream, is visited by the Maitreya Buddha. The Buddha descends from the altar to speak with A Xi, acknowledging a past vow made by the boy regarding his health and vegetarianism. The Maitreya Buddha explains that their meeting is fated due to this connection and A Xi's presence in the dream, indicating their spiritual bond. The Buddha then bestows upon A Xi three powerful items – the Secret Accord Celestial Gate, the Secret Accord Divine Mantra, and the Secret Accord Buddha Seal – intended to help combat the "three poisons" of greed, anger, and ignorance in himself and others. The text concludes with A Xi awakening, left to ponder the reality of his profound and transformative dream encounter, suggesting it was more than just a dream but a spiritual calling and the beginning of a sacred journey.
