6.57

遠又有弟子曇順、曇詵,並義學致譽。順本黃龍人,少受業什公,後還師遠,蔬食有德行。南蠻校尉劉遵,於江陵立竹林寺,請經始。遠遣徙焉。

Huiyuan also had disciples named Tanshun and Tanxin, both of whom won renown through doctrinal studies. Tanshun was originally from Huanglong; in his youth he received instruction from Kumārajīva, and later returned to take Huiyuan as his master, adhering to a vegetarian diet with virtuous conduct. Liu Zun, the Commandant of the Southern Barbarians, founded Zhulin Monastery in Jiangling and requested Tanshun to inaugurate it; Huiyuan sent him there to take up residence.
