In the second year: An edict decreed regarding the earlier expedition against Li Chongjin that, for all who died in the warfare, Jianlong Temple be established at the Yangzhou traveling palace to dedicate posthumous blessings for them, following the precedent of the fourth year of the Zhenguan era under Emperor Taizong of the Tang. (In the third year of the Zhidao era, the prefectural governor Wang Yucheng composed an inscription.) An edict was issued making it a statutory law that the common people were forbidden from fishing, hunting, and shooting birds from the second to the ninth months. In the fourth month, the Emperor visited Xiangguo Temple to pray for rain. He disbursed funds from the inner treasury to host a vegetarian feast for a thousand monks, after which a heavy rain fell. King Chu of Wuyue invited Chan Master Yanshou to preside over Yongming Temple (now Jingci Temple in Qiantang). The master took one hundred and eight matters as his daily curriculum. When students came to consult him, he took the mind as the essential principle and awakening as the standard. At dusk, he would go to another peak to practice the Way and recite the Buddha's name, and people heard the sound of heavenly music in the mountains. The King of Wuyue, moved by his single-minded dedication, built for him the Western Adornment Hall to fulfill his aspiration. The master, noting that the three schools of Xianshou, Cien, and Tiantai had mutual agreements and differences, accommodated those of their disciples who understood the Dharma, broadly perused the ocean of doctrines, and had them cross-examine one another. The master used the balance of the Mind School to weigh and harmonize them. Furthermore, he gathered sixty Mahāyāna sūtras and treatises, along with the sayings of three hundred sages and worthies from both lands, to corroborate and establish the principle of Mind-Only. He composed a book of one hundred fascicles entitled *The Mirror of the Source*, which was circulated in the world. (From the *Biography of Chan Master Shou*.)
