太元元年。西天沙門涉公至長安。秦主符堅尊奉之。常呪龍致雨以濟時旱。國人賴之○慧永法師。至廬山居西林香谷。潯陽刺史陶範。舍所居以為寺。

In the first year of the Taiyuan reign era, the śramaṇa Shegong of the Western Heaven arrived in Chang'an. Fu Jian, the Qin ruler, revered and served him. He often incanted nāgas to bring rain in order to relieve seasonal droughts, and the people of the state relied on him. Dharma Master Huiyong went to Mount Lu and resided in the Fragrant Valley of Xilin. Tao Fan, the Inspector of Xunyang, donated his residence to make it a monastery.
