37.46

紹泰元年。北齋文宣廢道教（詳在齊志）○補闕宗殆以學行知名。梁亡棄官出家號無名。北周誘以美官。無名自陳反俗有五不可。晚年為息心銘。悔少日克意文章（黃魯直書此銘與沙門智海。刻之叢林。以為雜學者之戒）。江陵天皇寺有柏堂。明帝之所建。張僧繇畫盧舍那像及仲尼十哲。帝問。釋門何為畫孔聖。僧繇曰。後當賴此耳。及後周滅佛法焚天下寺塔。獨此殿有宣尼像。乃不毀（名畫記）。

In the first year of the Shaotai era, Emperor Wenxuan of Northern Qi abolished Daoism (details are in the Annals of Qi). Zong Dai, an Exhorter, was renowned for his learning and conduct. When Liang fell, he abandoned his office and became a monk, taking the name Wuming ('Nameless'). The Northern Zhou enticed him with high office, but Wuming explained five reasons why returning to secular life was impossible for him. In his late years, he composed the Inscription on Pacifying the Mind (Xixin ming), regretting his youthful devotion to literary composition (Huang Luzhi transcribed this inscription for the śramaṇa Zhihai to carve in monasteries as an admonition to those of miscellaneous learning). At Tianhuang Monastery in Jiangling, there was a Cypress Hall built by Emperor Ming. Zhang Sengyou had painted an image of Rocana and the ten disciples of Confucius. The Emperor asked: 'Why paint the Confucian Sage in a Buddhist gate?' Sengyou said: 'Later, people will rely on this.' When the Northern Zhou destroyed the Buddhist Dharma and burned the monasteries and pagodas across the realm, only this hall was spared from destruction because it housed an image of Xuan'ni (Confucius) (Record of Famous Paintings).
