Jìngshàn 淨善 (late 12th century, lifedates unrecorded), Southern Sòng Chán monk of the DōngWú 東吳 (Jiāngnán) region, and the compiler (zhòng jí 重集 “re-compilation”) of the Chánlín bǎoxùn 禪林寶訓 (KR6q0099, T48 n2022), the canonical Sòng Chán anthology of ethical-administrative admonitions. No independent biographical material survives. DILA A001110 notes only: “lifedates unknown, Chúnxī-period [1174–1189] Eastern Wú monk, re-compiled the Chánlín bǎoxùn.”
Jìngshàn’s own preface supplies what little is known: he obtained a fragmentary copy of the original Dàhuì Zōnggǎo / Zhúān Shìguī joint compilation at the Yúnjū shān 雲居山 monastery from the elder monk Zǔān 祖安 during the Chúnxī period; finding it corrupted by worm-damage, he spent approximately a decade gathering further scattered entries from Chán yǔlù and chuánjì sources; added the Huánglóng, Fózhào, and Jiǎntáng-lineage materials; and produced the c. 300-entry four-juan received recension in the late 12th century, probably the late 1180s or 1190s.
