宋高僧傳 27.40

27.40

釋海雲，未詳氏族鄉里。來遊聖跡，始於南臺側，選峭絕峯巒幽僻林谷而特居之。其刻苦翫道，儉而難遵。從其遊者，寡而無眾。迨其入滅，門人守節，淘灑舍利起塔焉。昔傳雲是普賢菩薩應身也。門人守節即高力士之子也，從師墨儉，有進無退。雲示之曰：「上都有臥倫禪師者，雖云隱晦，而實闡揚六祖印持，一時難測。化導之方，若尸鳩之七子均養也。汝急去從之。」及見倫，扣擊未幾，告云：「汝師海雲入滅已。」節稟聽斯言，荼蓼情苦，遂奔赴，如其言矣。乃繼武接跡，盛化相耒。迨將示滅，愁雲欝結，鬼神悲號，有塔存焉。

Śramaṇa Haiyun was of unknown clan and native place. He came to visit the sacred traces, and initially chose a sheer, precipitous peak and a secluded, remote forest valley beside the Southern Terrace to dwell alone. In his bitter asceticism and delight in the Dao, his frugality was difficult to emulate. Those who followed him were few, without a crowd. When he entered extinction, his disciple Shoujie sifted his śarīra and erected a stūpa. In ancient tradition, it was said that Yun was an earthly manifestation of the Bodhisattva Samantabhadra. His disciple Shoujie was the son of Gao Lishi; he followed his master in ascetic frugality, advancing without retreat. Yun instructed him, saying: "In the imperial capital there is Chan Master Wolun; though he lives in obscurity, he truly propagates the seal of the Sixth Patriarch, which is difficult for people of the time to fathom. His manner of conversion and guidance is like the shrike nourishing its seven young equally. Hurry and go follow him." When he met Lun, after only a short inquiry, [Lun] told him, "Your master Haiyun has already entered extinction." Hearing these words, Jie felt bitter grief, and rushed back, finding it just as had been said. He then stepped into his master's shoes and followed his traces, and his flourishing conversion flourished continuously. When he was about to manifest extinction, sorrowful clouds gathered thick, and ghosts and spirits wailed in grief; a stūpa for him remains.
