2.34

釋僧印。姓朱壽春人也。進往廬山。從慧龍諮受法華。龍亦當世著名。播於法華宗旨。印偏功搆。徹獨表新異。於是東適京師。止中興寺。宋太明中徵居。何點招僧大集。請印為法匠。聽者七百餘人。雖學涉眾典。而偏以法華著名。講法華凡二百五十二遍。以齊永元元年卒。春秋六十有五矣(出梁高僧傳第八。及別傳等)。

Shi Sengyin, whose secular surname was Zhu, was a native of Shouchun. He went forward to Mount Lu and consulted and received the Lotus Sūtra from Huilong. Long was also famous in his day, renowned for the core teachings of the Lotus Sūtra. Yin applied his efforts with singular devotion, penetrating deeply to uniquely express fresh insights. Thereupon he traveled east to the capital and resided at Zhongxing Monastery. During the Daming era of the Song, he was summoned to dwell [there]. He Dian convened a great gathering of monks and invited Yin to be the master of Dharma. There were over seven hundred listeners. Although his studies encompassed numerous scriptures, he was particularly renowned for the Lotus Sūtra. He lectured on the Lotus Sūtra a total of two hundred and fifty-two times. He passed away in the first year of the Yongyuan era of the Qi, at the age of sixty-five. (Drawn from the Liang Biographies of Eminent Monks, fascicle eight, and separate biographies, etc.)
