大方廣圓覺修多羅了義經略疏 2.1441

2.1441

（宗密）謂言章疏例只如斯，遂休心傳教，適志遊方。但以終南觀門為助緣，以離情順智為自力，照融通法界而棲托，指事理懸說為利他。以夢幻身心游影像世界，神冥妙境智歷義門。跋涉江山，至于襄漢，於恢覺寺遇靈峯闍梨，即和尚門下一哲人也。寢疾數月，漸至羸極。相見三日，纔通其情。願以同聲之分，經及疏鈔悉蒙授與。議論未周，奄然遷逝。斯則夙緣法會忍死待來，若見若聞無不歎訝。

[Zongmi] thought that all treatises and commentaries were merely like this, and thereupon rested my mind from transmitting the teaching, traveling freely in wandering. Relying solely on Master Zhongnan's contemplation gates as auxiliary conditions, and taking departure from sentiment and compliance with wisdom as my own strength, I dwelled by illuminating the fused and interpenetrating dharmadhātu, pointing to the profound discourse on phenomena and principle for the benefit of others. With a dreamlike body and mind I roamed the world of reflections; my spirit was immersed in the wondrous realm, and my wisdom traversed doctrinal gates. Journeying across rivers and mountains, I arrived at Xianghan, where at Huijue Monastery I met Ācārya Lingfeng, who was a wise disciple under the Upādhyāya's gate. Having been bedridden with illness for several months, he had gradually reached an extreme weakness. Within three days of meeting, our sentiments had just opened to one another. Wishing to share the bond of kindred spirits, the sūtra as well as its commentary and subcommentary were all bestowed upon me. Before our discussions were concluded, he suddenly passed away. This was indeed enduring death to wait for my arrival out of past Dharma affinities; all who saw or heard of it could not but sigh in amazement.
