After the death of his master Gaofeng Yuanmiao, Zhongfeng Mingben
(1263-1323) left Gaofeng's mountain and lived in solitude. For many
years, he resided in various small mountain hermitages (often
called "Dwelling-in-the-Phantasmal Hermitages") or houseboats. He
drew students from all over East Asia: Yunnan, Turfan, Mongolia,
Korea, Japan, and elsewhere. The Recorded sayings of Chan Master
Zhongfeng Mingben provides an introduction, from the perspective of
Chan/Zen Studies, to the teachings of this key figure of
Yuan-dynasty Chan. Jeffrey Broughton focuses on selected works in
Zhongfeng's two Chan records, the enormous Extensive Record of
Preceptor Tianmu Zhongfeng, and the much smaller ancillary
Zhongfeng Record B. Included translations are Instructions to the
Assembly; selected Dharma Talks; the miscellany Night Conversations
in a Mountain Hermitage; the dharma talk entitled House
Instructions for Dwelling-in-the-Phantasmal Hermitage; In Imitation
of Hanshan's Poems (one-hundred poems); Song of
Dwelling-in-the-Phantasmal Hermitage; Cross-Legged Sitting Chan
Admonitions (with Preface); Ten Poems on Living on a Boat; and Ten
Poems on Living in Town.
