《太平广记·卷九十二·异僧六》
然而，惠照自梁普通七年出生，查对南梁历史，普通七年是丙午年；至唐宪宗元和十年乙末，计二百九十年；这与惠照自己说的岁数，果然相符。
然照自梁普通七年生，按梁史，普通七年，岁在丙午，至唐元和十年乙未，凡二百九十年。则与照言果符矣。
However, Huizhao himself stated that he was born in the seventh year of the Liang ordinary. Looking up the history of the Southern Liang, the seventh year of the ordinary was the year of Bing Wu; this would have been the year 290 before the tenth year of Xianzong's Yuanyun during the Tang dynasty; this corresponds to the age Huizhao told others, which really agrees.
