佛祖歷代通載 22.190

22.190

（二十一）　然則化之漸被者廣矣。不其盛與。記洛陽之伽藍。筆多慚於董史。頌西方之無量壽。共祝於堯年。莫測真如徒欣聖際。謹記。是年封普庵禪師加號。其詔曰。上天眷命皇帝聖旨。朕聞。佛氏以空寂為宗。則凡學所遵者。寧欲建名號殊稱謂以示天下後世哉。而國家非此無以昭尊德樂道之意也。朕自即位以來。聞袁州路南泉山慈化禪寺普菴寂感妙濟真覺昭貺大德惠慶禪師。紹臨濟之緒。超華嚴之境。德映當代澤被方來。其道甚尊。顯心切慕之。既累錫大諡。唯塔號未稱。可加定光之塔。曰定光靈瑞之塔者。主者施行。

(21) Thus the gradual spread of this transformation has indeed been vast! Is it not magnificent? In recording the monasteries of Luoyang, my pen falls far short of Dong Hu; in praising the Infinite Life of the West, we join in praying for the longevity of King Yao. Unable to fathom true suchness, I merely rejoice in this sacred era. Respectfully recorded. In this year, Chan Master Pu'an was enfeoffed with an additional title. The imperial edict read: 'By the mandate of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: We have heard that the Buddhist teachings take emptiness and tranquility as their essence; would those who adhere to its learning ever wish to establish titles and distinctive epithets to show off to the world and future generations? Yet without this, the state has no means to manifest its intent of revering virtue and delighting in the Way. Since ascending the throne, We have heard that at the Cihua Chan Temple on Mount Nanquan in the Yuanzhou Circuit, Chan Master Pu'an Jigan Miaoji Zhenjue Zhaokuang Dade Huiqing has inherited the lineage of Linji and transcended the realm of the Avataṃsaka. His virtue shines upon the contemporary age, and his grace covers future times. His path is most revered, and Our mind earnestly yearns for it. While great posthumous titles have repeatedly been conferred, the title of his stūpa has yet to match them. It is fitting to grant the stūpa the title of Dingguang, named the Stūpa of Dingguang Lingrui. Let the relevant officials carry this out.'
