摘要
This article is a study and annotated translation of the Ten Admonishments for the Lineage (Zongmen shi gui lun), a ten-point critique of Chan clerics attributed to the tenth-century Chan master Fayan Wenyi (885–958). The introduction situates the text in its historical context, provides a brief biographical sketch of its putative author, and explores some of the text’s central themes. An attempt has also been made to trace the historical transmission of the Ten Admonishments from its first known printing in China during the Southern Song to modern editions published in Japan during the Meiji and Taishǁ eras.
