The Recorded Sayings of Chan Master Wuyi of Qiaoyin, compiled by his attendant Zhengding, is a collection of the words and deeds of the eminent Chinese Chan master Wuyi of Qiaoyin from the Linji school. Compiled during the Yuan Dynasty, this work records Master Wuyi's teachings, sharp dialogues, poetic verses, and daily instructions, embodying his Chan approach of directly pointing to the mind and realizing one's inherent Buddha-nature. As an important text of the Linji school, this record not only reflects the development of Chan Buddhism during the Yuan Dynasty but also serves as a key resource for studying the evolution of Chan practices between the Song and Yuan periods. It holds profound guiding significance for later generations of Chan practitioners and occupies an important place in Buddhist literature.
