神僧傳 9.29

9.29

釋全宰。俗姓沈氏。錢唐人也。孩抱之間不喜葷血。其母累覩善徵。勸投徑山法濟大師削染。及修禪觀亭亭高竦不雜風塵。慕十二頭陀以飾其行。諺曰。宰道者焉。迨乎諸方參請。得石霜禪師印證密加保任。入天台山闇巖。以永其志也。伊巖與寒山子所隱對峙。皆魑魅木怪所叢萃其間。宰之居也。二十餘年。惡鳥革音山精讓窟。出入經行鬼神執役。或掃其路。或侍其傍。或代汲泉。或供菜果。時時人見宰未甞言後終於鎮國院。

Śramaṇa Quanzai, surnamed Shen in lay life, was a man of Qiantang. Even as an infant in arms, he took no pleasure in meat or blood. His mother repeatedly witnessed auspicious omens and urged him to go to Great Master Faji at Mount Jingshan to have his hair shaven. When he practiced Chan contemplation, he was lofty and prominent, untainted by the mundane world. Admiring the twelve dhūtas, he adorned his practice with them. The common saying called him Master Zai. When he visited masters in various quarters, he received confirmation from Chan Master Shishuang and was secretly nurtured by him. He entered Anyan on Mount Tiantai to perpetuate his aspiration. That cliff stood opposite the retreat of Hanshanzi; it was a dense haunt of demons and wood-sprites. During the more than twenty years that Zai resided there, evil birds changed their calls and mountain spirits yielded their caves. When he walked about practicing circumambulation, ghosts and spirits served him, some sweeping his path, some attending at his side, some drawing water in his stead, and some offering vegetables and fruits. From time to time people saw this, but Zai never spoke of it. Later he died at Zhenguo Cloister.
