### [26.72](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2060.26.72)

釋曇遂。雍州人。初學大論。後味唯識。研精攝論選其幽理。每言三界虛妄。但是一心追求外境未悟難息。故得名稱高遠。有通美焉。然復慎守根門勤修戒檢。住真寂寺掩關勵業。仁壽中年。下勅送舍利于晉州法吼寺。初停公館。放大光明照精舍門朗如金色。又放黃白二光。從道場出。久久乃滅。又從舍利輿所。至於塔基。而放瑞光。三道虹飛色如朝霞耿然空望。下塔之內又放光明。隱顯時現。大都為言七日之內。瑞靈雜沓相仍不絕。還京服業。迄于唐運。八十餘卒矣。

> Śramaṇa Tansui was a native of Yongzhou. Initially he studied the Dàzhìdù lùn, and later savored Consciousness-Only, investigating the Mahāyānasaṃgraha and selecting its profound principles. He often said, 'The three realms are illusory; they are nothing but the single mind. Seeking external objects before awakening is hard to quell.' Therefore, his renown spread far and wide, earning widespread praise. Moreover, he carefully guarded the sense doors and diligently observed the disciplinary precepts. Residing at Zhenji Temple, he shut his doors and spurred his practice. In the middle of the Renshou era, an imperial decree ordered him to escort relics to Fahou Temple in Jinzhou. When he first halted at the official lodge, a great light radiated, illuminating the door of the vihāra as bright as gold. Yellow and white lights also emanated from the bodhimaṇḍa, extinguishing only after a long while. Furthermore, from the place of the relic palanquin to the pagoda foundation, auspicious lights were emitted: three streams like flying rainbows, their color like the morning glow, shining brightly across the sky. Inside the pagoda during the interment, light was also emitted, appearing and disappearing at times. In general, within seven days, wondrous omens occurred one after another without ceasing. Returning to the capital, he continued his religious vocation until the Tang dynasty, passing away at the age of over eighty.
