洞上雲月錄

Pronunciations

Basic Meaning: Dongshanʼs Clouds-and-Moon Record

Senses:

  • Three fascicles. The recorded sermons 提唱 of the Japanese Sōtō school 曹洞宗 monk Ketsudō Noshō 傑堂能勝 (1355–1427), collected by his dharma heir Kenshū 謙宗 (1387–1460). Enchi 焉智 (d. 1712) revised Kenshūʼs writings and published this work in 1703. It is considered an essential source for understanding the system of the five ranks 五位 within the Sōtō school. The text discusses two types of five ranks: (1) the five ranks of Shishuang 石霜五位 (Shishuang Qingzhu 石霜慶諸; 807–888), which include 正中偏, 偏中正, 正中來, 兼中至, and 兼中到; and (2) the five ranks of Dongshan 洞山五位 ( Dongshan Liangjie 洞山良价; 807–869) which include 正中偏, 偏中正, 正中來, 偏中至, and 兼中到. Another version of the text was printed in 1721. This version contains a more accessible explanation of the five ranks system 正偏五位 by Kenshū in his Henshō goi zusetsu kitsunan 偏正五位圖說詰難.
