Buddha sound waves, legends a dream
Early tour ------- Putuoshan
About boats, I Huaizhuo pious mind to visit this earth's paradise, heading straight for the first leg of the landing Guanyin "guanyin cave."
Guanyin Kwu Tung is located in Nishi door, in a hillside, not very high. The rugged path, but unfortunately there is no smoke-filled, or you will feel you at this time exposure to Xian Jie! Looking back tide, small waves rolling, gentle breeze flowing around the bush-sheng, Cao Er beginning of green, unknowingly has reached guanyin cave, hole aroma slowly and l, the pilgrims are respectfully worship with. Here was once a sacred place Guanyin cultivation is very quiet, you can even hear the Chaosheng. Suddenly I had an idea: If you received a Gulangyu Xiamen Nanputuo shift, would not be a second Putuoshan?
Out Kwu Tung, we continue to move ahead along the mountain. Hill is not high, not steep, not so much mountain climbing, as it is walking, and soon afterwards went to the "two turtle to listen to Law," Legend of the East China Sea Dragon King about Kameomi similar argument afternoon a memorable one for listening to Goddess of Mercy, was a huff into a 2 Dragon King "stone turtle." Two turtles one after lying quietly on a large rock at the beach, life-like. Over here, that is, "Paradise Pavilion" is the legend of "secular music can draw Buddha" Enlightened pick a place to paradise I do not know whether the two turtles have been received to Xianjie? Pavilion on a couplet, wrote: "Half Round Dan Yue Zhao Zen mind, streaks of smoke residue passenger dream." Pious pilgrims who wish it not full of it?
With a dream, we went to the "Pan Tuo stone." An odd-shaped stone standing on another rock on the slope, it seems very dangerous, a bit like Quanzhou, Fujian Province, "pneumatic stone", but the wind will not move the stone, but more narrowly. Pan Tuo Shi prostrate in front of a Stonebull is said to be a monk guilty of being the master into the temple rules, folklore touch can bring this Stonebull I'm Feeling Lucky, so there are a group of people rushed from the Lower Ngau Tau touched oxtail, a good one landscape !
In addition to gods here, there is also a worth mentioning. A few hundred years ago, here are a respectable hermit, cure-all for the people, and later after the death of the people to commemorate him, and built-Mei Shan Monastery. It seems as long as the virtuous person, the people will not forget him. In front is a one Buddha hospital characters, a lot of people here to pray for the children of Fukao, close your eyes, right and left turn a few laps, and then go straight to touch it "Buddha" and the word feet. Said临时抱佛脚resulting. Hsu I had a desire to let my loved one successful learning achievements. There is also a feature of nuns and monks living in a temple. Actually with the universities, living in a residential floor, boys and girls the same, but also no.
After a plum Monastery, there is definitely a place not to miss, and that is strange Tongdian ----- Dhamma talk about Temple. That is simply amazing endless. Throughout the hall is made of copper, including the floor is. Inside the wall is very cold. Breeze blowing, you can also hear the above issued by the crisp sound of wind chimes.
After visiting the Tongdian is already eating lunch. We ate lunch aboard Fusaiji rush forward. Nobuo Xinnv are most anxious to want to go is probably Fusaiji can be from one to the front door, and we were surprised, the front door closed. There is the original allusion, Qianlong had disguised private visit with Chen Xia, the day the sky could be late, and happen to be closing time, close the monk to consult the abbot, abbot said that national laws and regulations Temple Temple there, please come again another day. Qianlong very angry and said: "I can not let you open the door." Jun no joke, he returned to Beijing after the emperor declared closed Puji front door. Later, abbot Shangjing intercede, but unfortunately Jun no joke, only allowed to open the door until the time of major festivals, such as the emperor in person, the old abbot handover ceremonies. It seems both the Royal has always been high-handed. Inside the towering old trees, is particularly atmospheric. Golden yellow walls with glazed tiles film, gives some magnificent feeling. Thousands of fragrant camphor trees more people feel the mystery and majesty of the temple.
Wishing heard that the special spirit here, I promised a beautiful wish, wish the world were Chengjuan Zhu lovers, including me, will benefit.
Continue after a Fusaiji forward reached a station, we drove directly to the Purple Bamboo forest. I remember Journey to the West there have been written about black bamboo forest, it is Guanyin place to live, also not far away, think of it a little bit excited. No police on the road, but vehicles are very orderly, and definitely not overloaded, it actually deserves a mention. One is around the corner, and first of all our attention is the side of the road Shichiku. Bamboo leaves are green, but purple bamboo poles, bamboo, unlike elsewhere. The temple can be seen lying on the bed the Goddess of Mercy, lifelike, really rare! Goddess of Mercy here unique femininity. In fact, Guanyin is male, but spread to China, from the Tang Dynasty began to change to female body. Is said to be because at that time in the feudal society, boudoir man's body, dedicated to Goddess of Mercy is not suitable because it was not pro-women and men give and accept. Is in order to adapt to the prevailing social customs, she was into women in the civil body, of which there are many allusions do. I wonder if it is true, then the civil Kuanyin on behalf of female body must be the most beautiful women!
At the seaside has Chaoyin Dong, issued when the roar of the tide Hole, reportedly can predict the weather. Chao Yindong sit while listening to wave as if unconsciously forget earthly troubles. Chaosheng just like Buddha sound, long to settle in the mind of the depressed dissolved, Shione Lang Lang, Buddhism boundless.
Everyone has to visit the seaside large bronze statue of Guanyin. Tall statue of Guanyin in that front, I did not seem to think that the wide sea, Shione blowing and everything seems to be under the coverage of her Dharma.
