釋僧\[(丰\*力)/石\]，姓傅氏，北地泥陽人，晉河間郎中令遐之元子也。少出家，止長安大寺，為弘覺法師弟子。覺亦一時法匠，\[(丰\*力)/石\]初從受業，後遊青、司、樊、沔之間。通六經及三藏，律行清謹，能匡振佛法。姚萇、姚興早挹風名，素所知重，及僭有關中，深相頂敬。興既崇信三寶，盛弘大化，建會設齋，烟蓋重疊，使夫慕道捨俗者，十室其半。

> Shi Sengqi, surnamed Fu, was a native of Niyang in Beidi, and the eldest son of Fu Xia, Director of the Household for the Prince of Hejian under the Jin. He left household life at an early age, resided at the Great Monastery in Chang'an, and became a disciple of Dharma Master Hongjue. Hongjue was also a leading master of the age; Sengqi initially studied under him and later traveled through the regions of Qing, Si, Fan, and Mian. He was versed in the Six Classics and the Tripiṭaka; his vinaya practice was pure and rigorous, and he was able to uphold and revitalize the Buddhadharma. Yao Chang and Yao Xing had long admired his reputation and esteemed him; when they usurped rule over Guanzhong, they revered him with the deepest devotion. As Yao Xing deeply believed in the Three Jewels and vigorously propagated the great teaching, convening assemblies and providing vegetarian feasts with parasols and smoke dense and overlapping, more than half of all households came to admire the Way and abandon worldly life.
