楞伽阿跋多羅寶經註解 1.5

1.5

（臣）僧（宗泐、如玘）昨於　內廷欽承聖諭，以為《心經》、《金剛》、《楞伽》三經，實治心法門，遣情離著，具在是矣，爾輩可不勉乎？（臣）等受命以來，夙夜兢惕，懼無以上副宸衷，於是竭誠殫慮，註釋《心經》、《金剛》二典，已於洪武十一年正月二十八日　奏準行世。而《楞伽》以今七月初十日始克註成，謹熏沐繕寫，拜手稽首，詣　闕進呈。重念（臣）等才識庸陋，學術空疎，固不敢叨於註釋之列。然承　雨露之餘澤，依日月之清光，庶幾少裨流通之萬一云爾。

We, your subject monks Zongle and Ruqi, yesterday reverently received an imperial decree in the Inner Court, which considered that the three scriptures—the Heart Sūtra, the Diamond Sūtra, and the Laṅkāvatāra Sūtra—are truly the Dharma gates for governing the mind, and that banishing emotions and abandoning attachments are fully contained within them: 'Can you not exert yourselves?' Ever since your subjects received this command, we have been anxious and vigilant day and night, fearing that we could not live up to the imperial mind. Thereupon, exhausting our sincerity and straining our thoughts, we annotated and explained the two scriptures, the Heart Sūtra and the Diamond Sūtra, which were already memorialized and approved for circulation on the twenty-eighth day of the first month in the eleventh year of the Hongwu reign. As for the Laṅkāvatāra, its commentary was only completed on this tenth day of the seventh month. We have respectfully bathed, transcribed it, and, bowing our heads and prostrating, proceeded to the Palace to present it. Reflecting repeatedly, your subjects' talent and knowledge are mediocre and crude, our learning empty and shallow; we certainly would not dare presume to join the ranks of commentators. Yet, receiving the remaining bounty of the imperial rain and dew and relying on the pure radiance of the sun and moon, we hope to slightly benefit its circulation by one part in ten thousand, and that is all.
