The *Commentary on the Diamond Sutra with the Eye of Dharma* by Master Xingqi of the early Qing Dynasty is a significant commentary that elucidates the profound meaning of the *Diamond Sutra*. Using the Huayan concept of nature-origination as its framework and integrating the essence of Chan Buddhism, the author systematically analyzes the terminology and the principle of true reality in the sutra. This commentary emerged during the revival of Buddhist doctrinal studies in the Ming and Qing dynasties. With its rigorous structure and exceptional insights, it is regarded as a key guide for studying and practicing the *Diamond Sutra*. It holds an important place in the history of Buddhist philosophy and the tradition of scriptural commentary, particularly for its profound influence on integrating the theory of emptiness with practical cultivation.
