高僧傳 5.26

5.26

Fatai's disciples Tanyi and Tan'er were both thoroughly versed in the meanings of the scriptures and were also skilled in the *Laozi* and the *Yijing*; their refined tastes and pursuits were on a par with Huiyuan. Tan'er died young, and Fatai wept for him bitterly, saying: "Heaven has destroyed my Yan Hui!" The commentaries and treatises composed by Fatai, together with his letters to Xi Chao discussing the doctrine of "Fundamental Non-Being," all circulate in the world. Some say that Fatai was a disciple of Master Dao'an, but that is incorrect.
