In the eighth year, in the first month, the imperial carriage visited Lingyin, and gifts were bestowed with added generosity. In the eighth month, Master Ne of Tianzhu, Chan Master Yin of Jingshan (Biefeng Baoyin), Chan Master Yuan of Lingyin, and scholars of the three teachings were summoned to gather in the Inner Contemplation Hall, where they were treated to a vegetarian feast. Furthermore, Chan Master Yuan was granted a private audience in the Eastern Pavilion and given a seat. The Emperor asked, "The other day, in my sleep, I suddenly heard the sound of a bell. I do not know whether dreaming and waking are the same or different?" He replied, "Dreaming and waking are not different; whom would you have make the distinction?" The Emperor said, "From where does the sound of the bell arise?" He replied, "It arises from the place where Your Majesty asks." In the tenth month, Chan Master Huiyuan of Lingyin was bestowed the title Chan Master Fo Hai (also styled Xiatang).
