宋慧亨。住武林延壽寺。初依靈芝習律。專修淨業。六十年。每對人必以念佛為勸。建寶閣立三聖像。最稱殊特。有江自任者。忽夢寶座從空而下。云亨律師當升此坐。適社友孫居士。預啟別亨。即在家作印而化。師往炷香。歸而謂其徒曰。孫君已去。吾亦行矣。乃集眾念佛。為說偈曰。彌陀口口稱。白毫念念想。持此不退心。決定生安養。端坐而化。號清照律師。

Huiheng of the Song lived at Yanshou Temple in Wulin. At first, he relied on Lingzhi to study the Vinaya, and exclusively cultivated pure karma for sixty years. Whenever facing people, he invariably exhorted them with buddhamanasikāra. He constructed a jeweled pavilion and erected images of the three holy ones, which were praised as most extraordinary. A man named Jiang Ziren suddenly dreamed of a jeweled seat descending from the sky, with someone saying: "Vinaya Master Heng should ascend this seat." It happened that his association companion, Layman Sun, informed Heng of his departure beforehand, and transformed at home while forming a mudrā. The master went to burn incense for him; upon returning, he said to his disciples: "Mr. Sun has already departed; I shall go as well." He then gathered the assembly to practice buddhamanasikāra and spoke a verse for them: / "Chanting Amitābha with mouth after mouth; / Contemplating the white curl of hair thought after thought. / Upholding this non-retrogressing mind, / One is decisively reborn in Peaceful Nourishment." / Sitting upright, he transformed. He was styled Vinaya Master Qingzhao.
