釋名曰。霹靂折也。震戰也。所擊輒破。若攻戰也。異苑曰。沙門釋慧遠捿神廬岳。甞有游龍翔其前。遠公有怒以石擲中。仍騰躍上昇。有傾風飈燁。公知是龍之所興。登山燒香會僧齊聲唱偈。於是霹靂迴向投龍之石。雲雨乃除。異苑曰。乞伏虜凶虐暴惡。嘗中霹靂。其挺引身出外。題背四字表其凶匿。國少時為涉去所棄。

> The Shiming says: "Pili (thunderbolt) means to break. Zhen means to shake and war. Wherever it strikes, it shatters at once, as if attacking in battle." The Yiyuan says: "The śramaṇa Shi Huiyuan dwelt in spirit on Mount Lu. Once a roaming dragon hovered before him. Master Huiyuan grew angry and cast a stone, striking it; it then leapt up and ascended. Before long, a violent gale blazed forth. The Master knew this was raised by the dragon; he climbed the mountain, burned incense, assembled the monks, and chanted gāthās in unison. Thereupon a thunderbolt turned toward and struck the stone that had hit the dragon, and the clouds and rain then cleared." The Yiyuan says: "A Qifu barbarian was brutal, cruel, violent, and wicked. Once he was struck by a thunderbolt; his body was straightened and drawn outside, with four characters inscribed upon his back exposing his hidden wickedness. A short time later, his state was abandoned by Shequ."
