宋高僧傳 30.22

30.22

釋金和尚者，姓王氏，西河平遙人也，所生之地猪坑村。幼而魁岸，為人魯質。所作詭異，與平人不類。於嵩巖山出家。其後身裁一丈，腰闊一圍，言事多奇差，終後如在。鄉人供祭之，乞願，皆遂人意。西河至稽胡皆鄭重焉。

Śramaṇa Preceptor Jin was surnamed Wang and was a native of Pingyao in Xihe; his birthplace was Zhukeng Village. In his youth he was tall and robust, but simple and rustic in disposition. His actions were bizarre and unlike those of ordinary people. He renounced the world at Mount Songyan. Later, his body measured one zhang in height and his waist one span in circumference; his predictions of events were often extraordinarily accurate. After his demise, he seemed as if still alive. When the local people made offerings and sacrifices to him, praying for wishes, everyone's requests were fulfilled. From Xihe to the Jihu, all treated him with profound respect.
