釋氏稽古略 4.68

4.68

Dharma Master Yitong transmitted the Tiantai teaching. On the eighteenth day of the tenth month of this year, he entered quiescence at Baoyun Cloister in Mingzhou. Tong was originally of the royal lineage of Goryeo. When he first went forth from the household, he became renowned for transmitting the Huayan and the Awakening of Faith. During the Tianfu era of the Later Jin, he crossed the sea to visit Xiji of Luoxi, suddenly awakening to and revealing the import of the perfect interfusion of the ten dharma realms. He succeeded to the Dharma and propagated it; over two decades later, he obtained eminent disciples like Zhili and Zunshi, further magnifying his transmission (stūpa inscription).
