Other points of interest

The Qiánlóng-era materials — precept-lectures dated 1736 and the zhuàn dating to 1737 — make KR6q0599 among the latest imprints in the Jiā-xīng-canon supplement, extending the J40 record into the second decade of the Qiánlóng reign. The 附高峰大師六問著語 in juan 5 is a zhuóyǔ (commentary) on the famous Gāofēng Yuánmiào 高峰原妙 liù wèn — anchoring this Qiánlóng-era yǔlù in the late-Sòng / early-Yuán Línjì gōngàn repertoire.
