For a normalizable state take $a>0$. inverse construction of a quantum potential gives $V=E+{\hslash }^2{\Psi }^{\prime \prime }/(2m\Psi )$. differentiation yields ${\Psi }^{\prime \prime }/\Psi =16a^2{x}^6-12a{x}^2$, so the chosen potential energy zero fixes $E=0$. ThusThis energy lies above the negative minima of the potential energy; its zero value does not mean zero kinetic energy. The nodeless eigenfunction is the ground state.
