Attached successively to the Nanzenji, Shōkokuji, Tenryūji and Rinsenji, he was one of the most active monk-publishers in the Nanbokuchō period.
Contents: Collected teachings and sayings of the Chan monk Ying'an, edited by Shouquan 守詮 and others of the Song period. Begins with a 1-folio preface by 端禮 and ends with a 2-folio batsu by the Chan monk Songyuan 松源.
