Chan Master Yuejiang, named Juejing, styled Yuejiang, was a native of Gusu. His father was Shen and his mother Niu. He left home under Zhangdun Guzhuo, who gave him the gongan of reciting the Buddha's name. He investigated with Xianshan Dazong, who directed him to see Master Dongming Chan, whereupon he attained enlightenment. He returned to Mount Gudao to dwell at Huoli Hermitage. During the Tianshun era, he resided at Shuixin Cloister in Xiaohong Village. After twenty years, he instructed his disciple Daolin, saying: "I am departing. This one robe and one bowl are the treasury of the true Dharma eye." He lived to seventy-nine. A stūpa was erected to entomb his sacred bones in the cloister.
