金陵清涼院文益禪師語錄 1.124

1.124

師緣被於金陵，三坐大道場，朝夕演旨，時諸方叢林，咸遵風化，異域有慕其法者，涉遠而至。玄沙正宗，中興於江表，師調機順物，斥滯磨昏，凡舉諸方三昧，或入室呈解，或叩激請益，皆應病與藥，隨根悟入者，不可勝紀。周顯德五年戊午七月十七日示疾，國主親加禮問。閏月五日，剃髮澡身，告眾訖，跏趺而逝，顏貌如生，壽七十有四，臘五十四。城下諸寺院，具威儀迎引，公卿李建勳以下素服，奉全身于江寧縣丹陽起塔，諡大法眼禪師，塔云無相。後李主，剏報慈院，命師門人玄覺言導師開法，再諡師大智藏大導師（終）。

The Master's teaching reached Jinling, where he sat at three great bodhimaṇḍas, expounding the essential principle morning and night. At that time the monasteries in all quarters conformed to his transformative influence; people from other lands who longed for his Dharma traveled from afar to arrive. The orthodox school of Xuansha was revived in the regions south of the Yangtze. The Master harmonized with capacities and adapted to circumstances, reprimanding stagnation and polishing away dullness. Whenever the samādhis of the various quarters were brought forward, whether [disciples] entered his room to present their understanding or raised queries to seek instruction, he always dispensed medicine according to the sickness; those who awakened in accord with their capacities were beyond counting. On the seventeenth day of the seventh month in the fifth year of Xiande of the Zhou dynasty (a wuwu year), he showed sickness; the sovereign of the state personally paid respects and inquired after him. On the fifth day of the intercalary month, having shaved his head and bathed his body, he addressed the assembly, sat cross-legged, and passed away. His appearance was as if alive; his age was seventy-four, his monastic age fifty-four. The monasteries throughout the capital prepared ceremonial regalia to meet and guide [the procession]; the ministers and lords, from Li Jianxun on down, dressed in plain mourning garments and escorted his whole body to Danyang in Jiangning County, where a stūpa was erected. He was posthumously named Chan Master Dáfǎyǎn; the stūpa was called Signless. Later, Lord Li founded Baoci Monastery and ordered the Master's disciple Xuanjue Yan Daoshi to inaugurate the teachings, and conferred upon the Master the additional posthumous title Great Guiding Master Dazhizang (End).
