English version: A virtuous man from Yunnan came to visit Chan Master Huiyun. This disciple once paid respects at Chicken Foot Mountain, seeking to meet Venerable Kashyapa. In a dream, I received a revelation from Protector Weituo, saying, 'The Venerable Kashyapa has already arrived at Mount Hua to propagate the Vinaya (戒律). If you wish to see him in person, you may go there.' Therefore, I came to pay respects (to Chan Master Huiyun). The Chan Master, fearing that it would cause confusion among the masses, secretly kept it from spreading. As for the dried-up spring at Maling Mountain that overflowed on its own, the three generations of grievances at Longmian Mountain that were resolved, the beings of the underworld who took refuge, the dragon gods who protected the Dharma (佛法), and other miraculous events, it is difficult to record them all. For more details, refer to the 'Inscription on the Two Pagodas of Supervisor Sun Zaifeng on the River' by Imperial Censor Li Mo, the 'Biographies of Attendant Fang Xiangxian' by Hanlin Academician You Tong, and the 'Stele of Daoist Conduct' by Governor Ding Sikong. There was a Vinaya Master named Yijie, who was a Dharma successor of the Chan Master. His given name was Shuyu, Yijie was his style name, and his alias was Fo'an. He currently resides at Zhaoqing Temple in Guhang (Hangzhou), expounding the Dharma and liberating sentient beings. His learning and talent are outstanding, and his morality is noble and bright. He is indeed an outstanding figure of this era, and he does not disgrace the reputation of being the fourth-generation descendant of Elder Huiyun. In the summer of the year Xinsi (1701), I was invited to teach the *Brahma Net Sutra* (梵网经) at Shenhu Jiao Temple in Kumamoto Castle, Higo Province (present-day Kumamoto Prefecture). The abbot of Jiangdong Chan Temple in Shimabara Castle, Hizen Province (present-day Nagasaki Prefecture), earnestly invited me to establish an ordination platform at his temple. Therefore, I stayed there to spend the winter retreat. The former abbot of the temple requested me to visit Nagasaki. Upon arriving, I first visited Kofuku Temple on Mount Tōmei. The abbot, Chan Master Yuefeng Zhang, was a *zhina* (Chinese) person. He was delighted by my visit, treated me with great hospitality, and we had a long and intimate conversation, his words like falling jade dust. He presented me with two volumes of his *Essential Daily Use of the Vinaya with Fragrant Milk Notes* (*毗尼日用切要香乳记*). The *Essential Daily Use of the Vinaya* was compiled by Monk Jian Yue, and Vinaya Master Yijie subsequently wrote annotations for it, titled *Fragrant Milk Notes*. I respectfully read it. Furthermore, from what the Chan Master spoke of, I learned that the Vinaya Master was currently at Zhaoqing Temple, so I entrusted the Chan Master to send the four volumes of *Explanation of the Six Articles* (*六物图依释*) to him attached to a merchant ship. The Vinaya Master was very pleased upon seeing it and wrote a preface to certify it, and he returned to me two volumes of his own work, *Karma Ritual* (*羯磨仪式*). Now, on the twenty-fifth day of the ninth month of the autumn of the year Wuzi (1708), I respectfully receive it, and therefore write a verse to express my joy. Previously, I sent the *Explanation of the Six Articles*; now, I receive this gift, all thanks to Chan Master Dongming's hard work and effort. The preface has already been printed and placed at the beginning of the book. I privately worry that people will not understand the reason for it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English

English version: Compose an introduction. The deeds of all the masters are based on the records of 'Xiangru Ji' (香乳记, Records of Fragrant Milk) and also referenced from 'Lushan Zhi' (庐山志, Records of Mount Lu). The text is preserved in its entirety without any deletion, so that people may know that the revival of the Vinaya (戒律) in China has successors, ensuring the longevity of the Buddha's teachings in the degenerate age. At the time: The fifth year of the Hōei era (宝永五年, 1708), the year being Wuzi (戊子), three days after the winter solstice. Recorded by Bhiksu (苾刍, Buddhist monk) Zhantang Shupan Tan (湛堂淑槃谭) of Anyang Lanruo (安养兰若, Anyang Monastery) in Jiangzuo (江左, area south of the Yangtze River). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
