title: "天聖廣燈錄 · 第二十九祖惠可大師"
description: "天聖廣燈錄由北宋李遵勗編撰，成書於天聖年間（1023-1032年），是繼景德傳燈錄之後的重要禪宗燈錄體著作。該書收錄了自佛祖至北宋初年的禪宗祖師語錄與傳記，尤其注重臨濟宗與雲門宗的法脈傳承。內容以問答形式呈現禪師機鋒，展現了宋代禪宗蓬勃發展的歷史面貌。作為五部宋代燈錄之一，天聖廣燈錄不僅是研究禪宗思想演變的關鍵文獻，更為後世永明延壽宗鏡錄等佛教典籍提供了重要史料，在中國佛教史與禪宗文獻學中具有承前啟後的學術價值。"

### 第二十九祖惠可大師者

> Master Huike, the Twenty-Ninth Patriarch

武牢人也。姓姬氏。父寂。未有子時。甞自念。我家崇善。豈無令子。禱之既久。一夕。感異光照室。其母因而懷姙。及長。遂以照室之瑞。名之曰光。

> He was from Wulao. His family name was Ji. His father, Ji Ji, had no son for a time and often thought to himself, "My family has always honored goodness—how could we be without a worthy son?" After he had prayed for a long while, one evening a strange light filled the room, and his mother conceived. When the child grew up, they named him Guang—"Light"—after the auspicious sign of the room being illuminated.

自幼志氣不群。愽涉詩書。尤精佛學。不事家產。好遊山水。即抵雒陽龍門香山寺。依寶靜禪師出家受具。復遊講肆。徧探大小乘義。

> From a young age, he had a spirit that set him apart from others. He read widely in poetry and classical literature, and was especially well-versed in Buddhist teachings. He took no interest in family property, and loved to travel among mountains and rivers. When he reached the Xiangshan Temple at Longmen in Luoyang, he became a monk under Master Baojing and received full ordination. He then went on to study at lecture halls, thoroughly exploring the teachings of both the Mahayana and Hinayana traditions.

年三十二。却返香山。忽有一神人謂曰。將欲受果。何滯此耶。大道非遙。汝其南矣。光知神助。因改名神光。

> At the age of thirty-two, he returned to Fragrant Mountain. Suddenly a divine being appeared and said to him, "You are about to receive the fruit of awakening—why linger here? The Great Path to Cessation is not far. You should head south." Shenguang knew this was divine assistance, and so he changed his name to Shenguang.

翌日。覺頭痛如刺。其師欲治之。空中有聲曰。此乃換骨。非常痛也。光遂以事具白于師。

> The next day, he awoke with a stabbing headache. His master wanted to treat it. A voice spoke from the sky, saying, "This is the changing of bones—an extraordinary pain." Guang then told his master everything that had happened.

今視其頂骨。即如五峯秀出矣。乃曰。汝相吉祥。當有所證。神令汝南者。斯則少林達磨大士即汝之師也。

光受教。造于少室。其得法．轉衣變跡。達磨章具之矣。

自少林託化西歸。大師既闡真風。是求法嗣。至北齊天平年中。有一居士。不言名氏。聿來設禮。而問師曰。弟子身纏風恙。請為懺罪　師曰。將罪來。與汝懺　居士云。覓罪了不可得　師曰。與汝懺罪竟　居士即投師出家受具。宜名僧璨。自茲疾已。

經三年。師乃告之曰。菩提達磨遠自竺乾以正法眼藏密付於吾。吾今授汝。并達磨信衣。汝當守護。無令斷絕。聽吾偈曰。

本來緣有地 因地種華生 本來無有種華亦不能生

大師付衣法已。又曰。汝受吾教。宜處深山。未可行化。當逢國難　璨曰。師既預知。願垂示誨　師曰。茲乃傳般若多羅懸記云。心中雖吉外頭凶是也。吾校年代。正在於汝。當諦思前言。勿罹世難。然吾亦有宿累。今要酬之。善去善行。俟時傳付。言已。即往鄴都。韜光混跡。變易儀相　人或問之。何故如是　師曰。我自調心。何關汝事。

又於管城寺談法。聽者林會。時有辨和法師者。於寺門講涅槃經。學徒聞師闡法。稍稍引出。辨和不勝其憤。興謗于邑宰翟仲侃。仲侃惑其邪說。加師以非法。師怡然委順。識真者。謂之償債。時年一百七歲。即隋文帝開皇年中也。

後葬于磁州滏陽懸東北七十里　唐德宗諡大祖禪師。釋法琳撰󳬴云。翟仲侃生前為牛。御者恚其喘而斃之。牛。今邑宰也。昔御者。師焉。宿報當酬爾。
