初，父藺居母阮氏憂，不食泣血而卒，家人賓客懼貞復然，從父洽、族兄暠乃共往華嚴寺，請長爪禪師為貞說法，仍謂貞曰：「孝子既無兄弟，極須自愛，若憂毀滅性，誰養母邪？」 Earlier, his father Lin in mourning for his mother Lady Ruan had not eaten and wept blood until he died. Family and guests feared Zhen would do the same. His father's younger brother Qia and his clansman Hao together went to Huayan Temple and asked the monk Long Claw to preach the law for Zhen, and also told Zhen, "A filial son has no brothers and must cherish himself utterly. If grief destroys your nature, who will nourish your mother?"
