佛語御禪師語錄敘
佛語徹御，吾姪嘉陽范氏子也，得法於慧覺法兄和尚。御侍師終身，雖寒暑順逆百折摧而無墮容。憾其福不逮慧，未展雙桂之道而早夭。其存日，亦不喜人記錄其語。嗣法門人輿若乘、憨之秀等，於暇日竊記機緣法語略數則，葺成編帙，余忽見而深目之。觀其說法為人處，言溫氣和，咸從涵養醞藉中流出，洵有大過於人者，識者其鑑諸。
時甲寅仲春花朝之日，華巖聖可德玉敘。

The Recorded Sayings of Chan Master Foyu, an important Chan Buddhist discourse text from the Qing Dynasty, contains the teachings of Master Cheyu, compiled by his disciples Fajie and Faxiu, with a preface by Shengke. Completed in the early Qing period, this work reflects the development and transmission of the Linji school of Chan Buddhism at that time. It primarily records Master Cheyu’s Dharma talks, public instructions, pointed dialogues, and guidance on spiritual practice. The content elucidates the theory of mind-nature and practical methods of Chan Buddhism with both depth and clarity. Holding a pivotal position in Buddhist history, it serves as a significant document for studying early Qing Chan trends and Linji school thought, offering enduring value as guidance for later generations of Chan practitioners.
