四年八月。參政錢端禮微疾。請平田行機禪師入臥內趺坐談咲。忽謂機曰。地水火風暫時湊泊。昧者認為自己。從上諸聖去住自在。今吾如是豈不快哉。遂斂目而逝。公與機同參護國元禪師。世知其有悟入（普燈錄）○召靈隱光禪師。入對內殿。進宗門直指。上問。浙東名山太白玉几之外。以何為勝。師曰。保國護聖國清萬年。上說。當時侍臣咸皆歎賞。以為名對○唐奘三藏譯大般若經成六百卷。有鳳城雪月大師大隱。用難信解品一百三卷。行通關之法以授後人。

> In the fourth year, in the eighth month, Assistant Executive of the Secretariat Qian Duanli fell slightly ill. He invited Chan Master Pingtian Xingji to enter his bedchamber, where they sat cross-legged, talking and laughing. He suddenly said to Ji, "Earth, water, fire, and wind have converged temporarily. The deluded mistake them for the self. All the sages from ancient times have gone and remained with ease. Now that I am like this, is it not delightful?" Thereupon, he closed his eyes and passed away. The Duke and Ji had studied together under Chan Master Yuan of Huguo; the world knew that he had attained awakening. (Pudeng lu.) Chan Master Guang of Lingyin was summoned for an audience in the inner hall, and presented the Zongmen zhizhi (Direct Pointer to the Chan School). The Emperor asked, "Beyond Taibai and Yuji, which of the famous mountains of Eastern Zhejiang is the most superior?" The Master replied, "Baoguo, Husheng, Guoqing, and Wannian." The Emperor was pleased; the attendant ministers of the time all marveled and praised it, considering it a famous response. Tripiṭaka Master Xuanzang of the Tang dynasty translated the Great Prajñāpāramitā Sūtra into six hundred volumes. Master Dayin Xueyue of Fengcheng utilized the one hundred and three volumes of the "Chapter on the Hard-to-Believe-and-Understand" to practice the method of passing through checkpoints and pass it on to posterity.
