琅琊 滁州琅琊山(今淮東道)廣照禪師。名慧覺。西洛人也。弱冠扶父衡陽太守柩歸洛。過澧州藥山古寺。宛若宿契。緣此出家。既得度遊方參學。得法汾陽。應緣滁水。與明州雪竇顯禪師(雲門宗派)同時唱道。四方謂之二甘露門。逮今淮南遺化如在。師嗣汾陽昭禪師(續燈錄)。
Langya: Chan Master Guangzhao of Mount Langya in Chuzhou (now Huaidong Circuit) was named Huijue, a native of Xiluo. At the age of twenty, he escorted the coffin of his father, the Prefect of Hengyang, back to Luo. Passing the ancient Yaoshan Monastery in Lizhou, he felt as if bound by a past affinity, and on this account left home. Having been ordained, he traveled to study, and attained the Dharma from Fenyang. Responding to conditions at the Chu River, he proclaimed the Way at the same time as Chan Master Xuedou Xian of Mingzhou (of the Yunmen school). The four quarters referred to them as the “Two Gates of Sweet Dew.” To this day, his remaining influence in Huainan is as if present. The Master was a Dharma heir of Chan Master Fenyang Zhao (Xu denglu).
