高僧傳 8.30

Language: Classical Chinese

8.30

遠時歎曰：「我剃頭沙門，本出家求道，何關於帝王！」即日謝病，仍隱迹上定林山。及景和之中，此制又寢，還遵舊章。

Yuan sighed at that time, saying: "I am a shaven-headed śramaṇa; I originally left household life to seek the Way—what business have I with emperors and kings!" That very day, he pleaded illness and retired, concealing his traces in Upper Dinglin Mountain. When the Jinghe era arrived, this regulation was again suspended, and the old ordinances were restored.
