七年四月。四明東湖二靈山知和菴主亡。師晚事南岳辯師（嗣東林總禪師）因遊方至四明郡。以名剎邀之。力距不受。問其故。曰近世住山者多以賄得。吾恥之弗為也。正言陳禾與之遊。自雪竇招居二靈山金襴菴。三十年不出山。問道者以未至其居為之恥。嘗有一虎為侍。師既亡。虎臥死於燼餘之地。三年有僧自蜀來問。海尊者何在。人言此但和公耳。蜀僧曰。正其人也。見其塔曰。此非吉地。歲餘勸土人為結石龕易葬之。見骨身舍利盈溢光燿林表○六月道州永道得旨放回。勅住昭先禪院。賜名法道以旌護法○八月詔罷黃老學。

> In the seventh year, in the fourth month, Hermit Zhihe of Mount Erling at Donghu in Siming passed away. In his late years, the Master served Master Bian of Nanyue (the Dharma heir of Chan Master Zong of Donglin). Traveling on pilgrimage, he arrived at the commandery of Siming. When famous monasteries invited him, he resolutely refused to accept. Asked for the reason, he said, 'In recent times, those who occupy mountain monasteries mostly obtain them through bribery. I am ashamed of this and will not do it.' Remonstrator Chen He wandered with him, inviting him from Xuedou to dwell in Jinlan Hermitage on Mount Erling. For thirty years he did not leave the mountain. Inquirers after the Way felt ashamed if they had not visited his dwelling. Once, a tiger served as his attendant. When the Master passed away, the tiger lay down and died on the site of his cremation ashes. Three years later, a monk came from Shu and asked, 'Where is Venerable Hai?' People said, 'Here there is only Master He.' The monk from Shu said, 'That is precisely the man.' Seeing his stupa, he said, 'This is not an auspicious site.' After more than a year, he urged the locals to construct a stone shrine to rebury him. They saw that the relics of his bodily bones were overflowing, shining brightly beyond the forest. In the sixth month, Yongdao of Daozhou received an imperial decree granting his release. An imperial order had him reside at Zhaoxian Chan Cloister and bestowed on him the name Fadao to commend his protection of the Dharma. In the eighth month, an imperial decree abolished the study of Huang-Lao.
