隱空

Yǐnkōng 隱空

Late-Míng / early-Qīng Fújiàn Buddhist monk, resident of Guǎngjìsì 廣濟寺. Lifedates not preserved.

Documented in 項謙 Xiàng Qiān’s 1652 preface to the Zhǔntí fénxiū xīdì chànhuǐ xuánwén (KR6j0760) as the monk who showed Xiàng both the Cuṇḍā repentance liturgy and the set of protector-deity images transmitted from the Míng-dynasty visionary lay practitioner 夏道人 Xià Dàorén. Yǐnkōng’s transmission served as the proximate channel for the 1652 Jiā-hé re-printing of the xuánwén.
