No. 308-A續夢始末
余先註法華指掌,肇始於雍正二年甲辰,脫槀於乾隆十一年丙寅。及欲就梓,苦力有未充,不果。後於辛未冬,荷蒙和碩莊親王奏放香界寺住持。閱明年,有徧空元等由岫雲來參,請為過講楞嚴正脈。初講十門,即嫌其駮辨太甚,且前後次第與清涼大有徑庭,不合賢宗家法。至題中繁言亂心,如洪闊等八義之類,亦私意之所不取。因不揣鄙陋,輙為籤釋。學眾喜其易明,請製新疏。於是研精竭思,三越寒暑,草本雖創,未及再修。又蒙莊親王舉授僧錄司副印,兼經呪館供職。嗣是協辦印務,對讀呪經,仍復募梓前疏,遂於是經新疏無遑問矣。癸未夏,館事少停,避暑山菴,即今三山庵也,舊名麻家庵。歲久傾圮,不蔽風雨,拓其基而新之,易以今名。督工之餘,為興、懷二子過講是經,重訂新疏。甫一過,又為二子過講金剛般若,知無著菩薩昔於覩史多天慈氏尊處親授八十行偈,於是有新眼疏、經偈合釋之作。稿成之日,適萬壽戒壇寺度博彚公過訪,力任刊行,紀其事在乾隆三十年也。三十一年丙戌,正印秀翁逝世,又蒙莊親王陞授僧錄司正印。未幾,才不勝任,致干舊疾,四支不仁,難以任事。無何,乞假還山,靜心調養。丁亥,疾稍可。戊子,取草本練覆,聊可自信。擬將募梓,旋蒙總管僧道錄司皇六子諭令銷假復印,兼奏放拈華寺住持。嗣是留興子在山庵謄清,偕懷子隨拈華校字,陸續募資料理壽棗。庚寅,奉旨照例於圓明園佛樓行走。三十六年辛卯,恭逢皇太后萬壽盛典,賜紫於皇壇供事。自惟理以貧子出家,何當際斯隆恩?深生愧慚,無能仰報。訖今乾隆四十一年丙申,刊刻工竣,辭印潛修,祝延聖壽,答報國恩,了此餘年,實所願也。余先於法華指掌編敘始末,有云:二十餘年,自視若夢期也;住此住彼,迴想若夢中人也。幾踰四十萬言,皆夢中寱語。其間或逆或順,皆夢中境界。即今編序始末,依然夢中說夢。然既云夢中說夢,則是一夢猶未醒耳。今又以二十餘年之工,製斯楞嚴新疏,豈不是一夢未醒,又續一夢也?且思如來說法四十九年,尚不曾道著一字,況是經是疏不足六十萬言,又豈能道著一字乎?伏望後之讀是經、閱是疏者,幸勿於中說是說非,又作實法會也。
