He attained the Dharma under Yaoshan. Reaching Huating, he floated in a small boat, spending his days according with conditions. People did not know of his lofty conduct, hence they called him "the Boatman Venerable" (Chuanzi Heshang). He was rich in verse and phrase. Later, because Daowu pointed Chan Master Jiashan Hui to come and study with him, Jiashan had already attained awakening and, upon taking leave, repeatedly looked back. The Master then called out, "Ācārya!" As Jiashan turned his head, the Master held up his oar and said, "Do you think there is something else?" He then overturned the boat, entered the water, and passed away. The Master was an heir of Yaoshan. / In the bingchen year, the first year of Kaicheng: Chan Master Zihuyan of Quzhou was named Lizong, a man of Chanzhou, surnamed Zhou. He left home at Kaiyuan Monastery in Youzhou. When he came of age, he received the full precepts and entered the room of Nanquan. He arrived at Mount Mati in Quzhou. In the second year of Kaicheng, a local resident named Weng Qiangui donated Zihu below the mountain to build a monastery for the Master to dwell. Below his gate, the Master put up a placard that said, "At Zihu there is a dog: up above it takes people's heads, in the middle it takes people's hearts, down below it takes people's feet. If you deliberate, you forfeit your body and lose your life." When two monks from Linji's assembly came to study with him and were just lifting the curtain, the Master shouted, "Watch out for the dog!" As the monks looked back, the Master drove them back to the abbot's quarters. In the first year of Guangming under Xizong, he entered quiescence. A stupa was built on his mountain. The Master was an heir of Nanquan Yuan (Transmission of the Lamp). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.240](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.3.240) - [Next: 3.242](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.3.242) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037~en-mt.3.241) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.3.241](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2037.3.241) · Pramāṇa
