禪林寶訓 4.44

4.44

乾道初。瞎堂住國清。因見或菴讚圓通像曰。不依本分。惱亂眾生。瞻之仰之。有眼如盲。長安風月貫今昔。那箇男兒摸壁行。瞎堂驚喜曰。不謂此菴有此兒。即遍索之。遂得於江心。固於稠人中。請克第一座（天台野錄）。

At the beginning of the Qiandao era, Xiatang was residing at Guoqing. When he saw Huo'an's eulogy for Yuantong's portrait, which read: / 'Not abiding by his fundamental role, he disturbs sentient beings; / Looking up and admiring him, having eyes is like being blind. / The wind and moon of Chang'an span past and present; / Which true man walks feeling along the wall?' / Xiatang was surprised and delighted, saying, 'I did not know Ci'an had such a son!' He immediately searched everywhere for him, and finally found him at Jiangxin; he firmly invited him from among the crowd to take the seat of the head monk." (Wild Records of Tiantai)
