七年。藤州沙門契嵩。初得法於洞山聰禪師。至錢唐靈隱閉戶著書。既成入京師。見內翰王素進輔教編。定祖圖。正宗記。上讀其書。至為法不為身。嘉歎其誠。勅以其書入大藏。賜明教大師。及送中書宰相韓琦。以視參政歐陽修。修覽文歎曰。不意僧中有此郎。黎明同琦往淨因見之。語終日。自宰相以下莫不爭延致。名振海內。及東下吳門大覺璉禪師作白雲謠以送之（石門文字禪）。

In the seventh year, the monk Qisong of Tengzhou, who had originally obtained the Dharma under Chan Master Dongshan Cong, went to Lingyin in Qiantang, shut his doors, and wrote books. Once they were completed, he entered the capital. He saw Hanlin Academician Wang Su and presented his Fujiao bian (Compendium in Support of the Teaching), Dingzu tu (Chart Determining the Patriarchs), and Zhengzong ji (Record of the Orthodox Lineage). The Emperor read his books, and coming to the line 'for the sake of the Dharma, not for one's own sake,' he praised and admired his sincerity. He decreed that his books be entered into the Tripiṭaka, bestowed [on him] the title Great Master Mingjiao, and sent them to the Grand Councilor Han Qi in the Central Secretariat to show to the Assistant Executive of the Secretariat-Chancellery Ouyang Xiu. Xiu read the text and sighed, saying, 'I did not expect there to be such a man among the monks!' At dawn, he went with Qi to Jingyin to see him, and they conversed all day. From the Grand Councilor on down, none did not vie to invite him; his fame shook the empire. When he went east down to Wumen, Chan Master Dajue Lian composed the Baiyun yao (Song of the White Clouds) to see him off (Shimen wenzi chan).
