In Chang 'an, the capital of the late Qin Dynasty, Emperor Yaoxing built a large-scale construction project in the north of the city, and built the Xiaoyao Garden, a place where Kumarajiva debated. Kumarajiva began to translate a large number of Buddhist scriptures here. Emperor Yao appreciated Kumarajiva's suggestion very much. He immediately opened a translation place for Kumarajiva, and specially appointed 800 monks to cooperate with his work. Chang 'an Translation Studio became the first large-scale translation studio held by the state in the history of China.
With the cooperation of his disciples, Kumalo explained all the key Buddhist words in detail, accurately and simply for the first time. Kumarajiva's translation has touched almost all aspects of numerous Buddhist scriptures, and most of his translations have become the classic basis for the establishment of Buddhism in China. The famous sentence "Color is emptiness, and emptiness is color" comes from Kumarajiva's translation of Heart Sutra. This monk from the West turned Indian Buddhist scriptures into beautiful China classics through his excellent understanding of language.
