佛祖統紀 36.93

36.93

In the fourth year, the Liangzhou monk Zhiyan translated fourteen works, including the Yingluo benye jing.
Also, the monk Huilin gained favor through his talent and scholarship; an edict ordered him to deliberate on court affairs together with Yan Yanzhi. Lin wore high clogs and draped himself in sable furs; Kong Yi teased him, saying, 'What use is there for this black-robed Chancellor?' He once wrote the *Treatise on Black and White*, which contradicted Buddhist principles, and various treatises refuted it (see the *Hongming ji*). Later, Lin suffered from rotting skin and flesh, and after several years he finally died; people at the time considered it retribution for betraying the teaching.
