神僧傳 6.14

6.14

釋豐干師者。本居天台國清寺。剪髮齊眉布裘擁質。身量可七尺餘。人或借問。止對曰。隨時二字而已。更無他語。樂獨舂穀。役同城旦。應副齋炊。甞乘虎直入松門。眾僧驚懼口唱唱道歌。與拾得寒山子二人相得歡甚。豐干出雲遊。適閭丘胤出守台州欲之官。俄病頭風召名醫莫差。豐干偶至其家。自謂善療此疾。閭丘聞而見之。師持淨水噀之須臾祛殄。因是大加敬焉。問所從來。曰天台國清。曰彼有賢達否。曰寒山文殊拾得普賢。當就見之。閭丘至任。三日後即到寺。問曰。此寺曾有豐干禪師否。曰有。院在何所。寒山拾得復是何人。時僧道翹對曰。豐干舊院即經藏後。今闃無人止有虎豹。時來此哮吼耳。寒山拾得二人見在僧厨執役。閭丘入干房唯見虎跡縱橫。又問干在此有何行業。曰唯事舂穀供僧粥食。夜則唱歌諷誦不輟。如是再三嗟嘆。乃入厨見二人拜之。二人起走曰。豐干饒舌彌陀不識。禮我何為。遂携手出松門。更不復入寺焉。豐干後不知所終。

Shi Fenggan originally dwelt at Guoqing Monastery on Mount Tiantai. His hair was trimmed even with his eyebrows, and he wore a cloth robe over his body. His height was over seven feet. When someone asked him a question, he replied only with the two words: “Follow the time.” He spoke no other words. He delighted in pounding grain alone, laboring like a convict, and assisting with cooking for meals. He once rode a tiger straight through the Pine Gate, leaving the monks frightened, while he sang songs of chanting the Way. He got along exceedingly well with Shide and the hermit Hanshan. Fenggan went out wandering like clouds. It happened that Lüqiu Yin was departing to take up office as governor of Taizhou. Suddenly he was afflicted with severe migraines, and celebrated doctors summoned could not cure it. Fenggan happened to arrive at his house, declaring that he was skilled at treating this illness. When Lüqiu heard this, he received him. The Master took pure water and spat it upon him; in a moment, the illness was eliminated. Because of this, [Lüqiu] respected him greatly. He asked where he had come from, and [Fenggan] replied: “Guoqing on Tiantai.” He asked: “Are there worthy and eminent men there?” [Fenggan] replied: “Hanshan is Mañjuśrī; Shide is Samantabhadra. You should go and see them.” Three days after Lüqiu arrived at his post, he went to the monastery. He asked: “Has this monastery ever had a Dhyāna Master Fenggan?” They replied: “Yes.” “Where is his courtyard? And who are Hanshan and Shide?” Then monk Daoqiao replied: “Fenggan's former courtyard is right behind the scripture library. Now it is deserted and empty, with only tigers and leopards occasionally coming to roar here. Hanshan and Shide are currently performing menial tasks in the monastic kitchen.” Lüqiu entered Fenggan's room and saw only tiger tracks crisscrossing the floor. He further asked what deeds Fenggan had performed here. They replied: “He only engaged in pounding grain to provide gruel and food for the monks; at night he sang songs and chanted without ceasing.” Lüqiu sighed in admiration repeatedly. He then entered the kitchen, saw the two men, and bowed to them. The two men jumped up and ran, saying: “Fenggan has a wagging tongue! If you do not recognize Amitābha, why bow to us?” Hand in hand, they exited the Pine Gate and never entered the monastery again. Where Fenggan finally went was never known.
