3.61

The new abbot of Tiantong came from Jiangshan. Ascending the hall, the Master said: "With a face like a mirror and talons like a hawk, his features are dreadful. Shaking his locks, he left Mount Nanyue, descending the mountain to transform beings. Urged on by Taolin, he expounded the sutras before the emperor. Not keeping within boundaries, he offended the peaceful realm. Having extinguished the true Dharma eye of Zhongfeng, only then did the talk of the broken earthen basin make its way."
