Recorded Sayings of Chan Master Gaofeng Qiaosong Yi This is the recorded sayings of the Qing dynasty Chan monk Xuanyi, compiled by his disciple Denghong and printed from the block-printed edition. Xuanyi was active in the early Qing period, belonging to the Linji lineage. His recorded sayings document his Dharma hall discourses, sharp exchanges of dialogue, letters, and poetic verses, collectively embodying the Chan principle of directly pointing to the human mind, seeing one's nature, and attaining Buddhahood. The content is profound yet accessible, integrating Chan practice with daily life, providing clear guidance for practitioners. This record serves as an important text for studying early Qing Chan thought and the development of the Linji school, holding a pivotal position in Buddhist history that bridges past and future, exerting a profound influence on later Chan traditions.
