達停止通玄寺，首尾三年，晝夜虔禮，未嘗暫廢。頃之，進適會稽，禮拜鄮塔。此塔亦是育王所造，歲久荒蕪，示存基蹠。達翹心束想，乃見神光焰發，因是修立龕砌，群鳥無敢棲集。凡近寺側畋漁者，必無所獲，道俗傳感，莫不移信。後郡守孟顗復加開拓。達東西覲禮，屢表徵驗，精勤篤勵終年無改。後不知所之。

> Huida stayed at Tongxuan Temple for three years from start to finish, day and night reverently worshipping without ever ceasing for an instant. Shortly afterward, he proceeded to Kuaiji to pay homage to the Mao Stupa. This stupa was also built by King Aśoka; over long years it had fallen into neglect and ruin, and only its foundations remained. Huida focused his mind and restrained his thoughts, whereupon he saw a divine light blaze forth. Thereupon, he repaired and built the niche and masonry, and flocks of birds dared not roost or gather there. Anyone hunting or fishing near the vicinity of the temple invariably caught nothing; monastics and laypeople passed on the response, and none failed to be moved to faith. Later, the commandery governor Meng Yi further expanded it. Huida paid homage in the east and west, repeatedly revealing miraculous verifications, and his energetic diligence and earnest devotion remained unchanged to the end of his years. Later, it is not known where he went.
