Jìng-huì 淨慧 (Japanese: Jōkei / Jōe)
A Tokugawa-period Japanese Buddhist monk; hào Myōdō 妙幢. Lifedates not preserved with precision; the colophon of the 《金剛般若經靈驗傳》 KR6r0179 Jīn-gāng bō-rě jīng líng-yàn zhuàn (3 juǎn, X1634), which he compiled, is dated 貞享五(戊辰)載八月下澣 = late 8th month, Jōkyō 5 = autumn 1688, fixing his floruit in the late 17th century. He identifies himself in the colophon as a shā-mén (śramaṇa) of He-cháo 和朝 (Japan), and explains his compilation method: of Diamond Sūtra miracle-tales, “those of the He-cháo [Japanese] sympathetic-responses, scattered throughout various books, I set aside; I have here, only from books of foreign lands [= China] those that come within the bounds of my own seeing — without distinguishing monastic from lay, without considering temporal sequence — and as I obtained each, recorded it.” The colophon further notes that the work was published in concert with the Chinese 《金剛經感應傳》 KR6r0177 and the 《金剛經新異錄》 KR6r0178 of Wáng Qǐ-lóng — i.e., the three works were jointly engraved by Jìng-huì for circulation in Japan as a comprehensive Diamond Sūtra miracle-tale corpus.
He is otherwise undocumented in standard Japanese Buddhist reference works; his identification as a Japanese rather than Chinese monk is fixed by the colophon’s reference to He-cháo and by the Jōkyō era-name (a Japanese gengō).
