釋國道者,未知何許人也。器凝淳粹,行敦高邁,塊然獨處,翩翩在形器之上矣。參學攸廣,欲歇孤征,愛廬山秀異,誓隱淪以求其志。考築草舍,灌園植蔬,任山中居人揃取。或問其故,答曰:「貧道無心而種,無心而捨也。」驗此見知,實達道之上流矣。修睦僧正恒傾意奉重,詩贈國公云:「入門空寂寂,真箇出家兒。有行鬼不見,無心人謂癡。」後終于院,葬于雙溪山原,有小浮圖焉。今以「國」字呼之,為名邪?姓邪?未得詳焉。
Śramaṇa Daoist Guo: it is not known where he was from. His capacity was pure and refined, and his conduct was honest and transcendent; dwelling alone and solitary, he soared high above material forms. Having studied widely under masters, he wished to halt his solitary travels, and loving the extraordinary beauty of Mount Lu, he vowed to live in obscurity to pursue his aspirations. He built a thatched hut, watered his garden, and planted vegetables, allowing the mountain dwellers to pick them as they pleased. When someone asked him the reason, he replied: "This poor monk plants with no mind, and gives away with no mind." Examining this perception, he was truly an eminent person who had reached the Way. Saṅgha Rectifier Xiumu constantly revered and respected him, presenting Master Guo with a poem: "Entering the gate, all is empty and still; / Truly an authentic child of the Dharma. / Having conduct unseen by ghosts, / Possessing no mind, men call him a fool." Later he passed away in the cloister and was buried on the mountain plateau of Shuangxi, where a small stūpa stands. Today people call him by the character "Guo"; whether it was his name or his surname remains unclear.
