天台四教儀 1.5

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [1.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1931.1.5)

觀能探索大本，錄出《四教儀》之文成二卷。其上卷明一家判教立義，下卷明南北諸師宗途異計。後至孤山圓法師校勘刊板，但行今上卷之文者，蓋由辭句簡要，義旨易明，學者誠資之可了其一化大綱，豈曰小補之哉。下卷則破斥南北古師，文義浩漫故得以緩之。如此文末指云：「自從此下略明諸家判教儀式，抑可見後卷之大略也。」王為寂師建伽藍螺溪之上，曰定慧院，進號淨光大師，追諡九祖，并東還教藏悉付於師，教門中興實基於此。而韶公適與智者同姓，乃又毘贊宗乘，且居隣佛隴，人咸疑其為智者後身云。

> Chegwan was able to explore the major texts and excerpt the Outline of the Fourfold Teachings in two fascicles. The upper fascicle clarifies our tradition's doctrinal classification and established meanings, while the lower fascicle clarifies the divergent views and lineages of the various masters of the north and south. Later, when Master Yuan of Gushan collated and printed it on printing blocks, he circulated only the text of the present upper fascicle. This was because its phrases were concise and essential, its doctrine easily understood, and students relying on it could indeed comprehend the grand outline of \[the Buddha's\] entire era of conversion; how could it be called a minor aid? As for the lower fascicle, it refutes the ancient masters of the north and south, and its text and meanings are vast and diffuse; hence it was deferred. In the text at the very end of this \[work\], it indicates: "From this point onward, the doctrinal classification systems of the various masters are briefly explained;" this allows one to see the general outline of the latter fascicle. For Master Ji, the King built a monastery above Luoxi named Dinghui Cloister, promoted his title to Great Master Jingguang, posthumously designated him the Ninth Patriarch, and entrusted entirely to the master the doctrinal canon returned from the east; the revival of our doctrinal tradition was indeed based upon this. Furthermore, Venerable Shao happened to share the same surname as Zhizhe, aided and supported the sectarian vehicle, and lived adjacent to Folong; people all suspected that he was a reincarnation of Zhizhe.
