傳法正宗記 4.25

4.25

評曰。預付法以何驗乎。曰以聖人驗之。唯聖人故能玄知。今師子德能為祖。自謂則曰已得蘊空。此其為聖人亦至矣。豈無玄知乎。又鶴勒那嘗以難語之。勉其傳道。此可不預付法乎。他傳（付法藏傳也）能知其臨刑湧之白乳而乃曰。相傳法人於此便絕何不思而妄書乎（其妄驗於禪經）。

The appraisal says: By what can the advance entrustment of the Dharma be verified? I say: It is verified by the sages. Only sages are capable of occult knowledge. Now, Simha's virtue was capable of making him a patriarch, and in his own words, he had already attained the emptiness of the aggregates. His attainment as a sage was indeed supreme; how could he lack occult knowledge? Moreover, Haklenayaśas had once spoken to him of the difficulty and urged him to transmit the Way; how could he not have entrusted the Dharma in advance? Other records (namely, the Fu fazang zhuan) were able to know that white milk gushed forth upon his execution, yet went on to say that the lineage of Dharma transmission ended here. Why did they write so recklessly without reflecting? (Their falsehood is verified by the Dhyāna Sūtra.)
