28.43

王闐。四明慈溪人。號無功叟。凡禪林宗旨天台教門無不洞達。著淨土自信錄。以明三身四土之旨。晚年專心念佛。西向加趺而化。異香滿室。焚龕獲舍利。如菽者百八粒。

Wang Tian was a native of Cixi in Siming, styled Master Wugong (No Effort). In all matters, he thoroughly comprehended the central tenets of Chan and the Tiantai doctrinal gates. He composed the Jingtu zixin lu (Record of Confidence in the Pure Land) to elucidate the principle of the three bodies and four lands. In his later years, he concentrated his mind on recollecting the Buddha; facing west, he sat cross-legged and passed away. A wondrous fragrance filled the room. When his coffin was cremated, they retrieved one hundred and eight relics resembling beans.
