(15. Wuchen) Dharma Master Jingyuan of Jinshui in Hangzhou passed away into quiescence in the eleventh month. He was of the Yang clan of Jinjiang. He received the Avataṃsaka from Chengqian of Wutai; [Cheng]qian had once commented on the Jin shizi zhang (Treatise on the Golden Lion). He studied the Helun (Combined Treatise) under Mingtan of Henghai. Returning south, he heard the Śūraṅgama, Complete Enlightenment, and the Awakening of Faith under Changshui [Zixuan]. Senior scholars of the four quarters praised him as a dragon of the doctrinal meaning. When he went to visit his parents in Quan[zhou], he was invited to preside over Qingliang [Monastery]. Later he traveled through Wu and resided at Bao'en and Guanyin [monasteries]. Shen Wentong, the prefect of Hangzhou, established the Xianshou Cloister at Xiangfu [Monastery] to invite him. Later he presided over Mi'yin and Baoge in Qingzhen, and Puzhao and Shanzhu in Huating. The Korean monk superintendent Ŭich'ŏn crossed the sea to seek the Dharma and offered the courtesies of a disciple. Originally, the commentaries and sub-commentaries of the Avataṃsaka school had long been scattered and lost; because Ŭich'ŏn brought them to inquire and resolve his doubts, what had been lost was recovered. Pu Zongmeng, Assistant Director of the Left, was governing Hangzhou; sympathizing with his arduous aspiration, he petitioned to convert Huiyin [Monastery] from Chan to the doctrinal school and ordered the master to preside over it. When Ŭich'ŏn returned to his country, he sent back the three translations of the Avataṃsaka written in gold letters, in one hundred and eighty fascicles, to present to the master and to pray for the longevity of the sovereign (the sixty-fascicle translation jointly made by Dharma Master Buddhabhadra under the Jin; the eighty-fascicle translation by Śikṣānanda under the Tang; and the forty-fascicle translation by Dharma Master Chengguan from the text presented by Uḍra under the Tang). The master then built a great pavilion to enshrine them. At that time, people hailed the master as the leader of the revival of the doctrinal school. Because this monastery enshrined the sutras written in gold letters, it was popularly called the Koryŏ Temple. His relics were stupaed to the northwest of the temple. He lived to the age of seventy-eight. His ancestors were people of Jinshui in Quan[zhou]; therefore scholars called him 'Jinshui'. This was indeed the third year of Yuanyou.
