The *Bushuitai Collection* is a separate collection of works by the eminent monk Daomin from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, included in the Rare Books Catalog of the Central Library under the "Collections" category, "Separate Collections" section. Chan Master Daomin was a distinguished monk of the Linji school and a Ming loyalist. In the early Qing dynasty, he accepted the invitation of the Shunzhi Emperor to enter the capital, exerting significant influence on Buddhist policies of the time. This compilation gathers his poetic works, Dharma discourses, letters, and other writings, covering topics such as Chan thought, insights from practice, reflections on contemporary affairs, and interactions with scholar-officials. It serves as an important document for the study of his life, the history of Buddhism during the Ming-Qing transition, and Chan thought. As a representative Buddhist work from the Ming-Qing period, the *Bushuitai Collection* not only demonstrates the literary cultivation and Chan attainments of an eminent monk but also provides valuable historical material for understanding the interaction between Buddhism and society during that era.
