29.24

法師子𤀹。嘉禾人。初依洪敏師學楞嚴。至動靜二相了然不生有省。聞琅邪慧覺道重當世。趨至其門。值其上堂。即致問曰。清淨本然云何忽生山河大地。覺喝云。清淨本然云何忽生山河大地。師俯伏流汗。豁然大悟。覺謂之曰。汝宗不振久矣。宜厲志扶持以報佛恩。師如教辭去。後住長水。眾幾一千。以賢首宗旨述楞嚴經疏十卷。行於世。

Dharma Master Zixuan was a man of Jiahe. He first relied on Master Hongmin to study the Śūraṅgama Sūtra; when he reached the point where the two aspects of motion and stillness clearly do not arise, he had an awakening. Hearing that Langya Huijue's virtue was esteemed in that age, he hastened to his gate. Encountering him ascending the hall, he immediately posed the question: 'Pristinely pure and fundamentally so, how do the mountains, rivers, and the great earth suddenly arise?' Jue gave a shout and said: 'Pristinely pure and fundamentally so, how do the mountains, rivers, and the great earth suddenly arise?' The Master bowed down, dripping with sweat, and experienced a great awakening. Jue said to him: 'Your school has long been in decline. You should exert your will to support it, so as to repay the Buddha's kindness.' The Master bowed and departed as instructed. Later he resided at Changshui, where his followers numbered nearly a thousand. Following the tenets of Xianshou, he composed a ten-scroll commentary on the Śūraṅgama Sūtra, which circulated in the world.
