26.28
Dharma Master Tanheng was a native of Hedong. While still a young child, he renounced the householder's life under Master Yuan. When he was just thirteen years old, he was already able to lecture, and there were no inner or outer texts that he did not thoroughly master. His virtuous practice was pure and unswerving, winning the admiration of others. A herd of deer would regularly wander tamely around his seat. Ever since he entered Mount Lu, he single-mindedly devoted himself to pure karma. In the fourteenth year of the Yixi reign era, he sat upright, joined his palms, and passed away while reciting the Buddha's name in a loud voice. His age was seventy-two.
