Far, in buses to see that a red walls, golden glazed buildings. Gradually closer, you can also see the rising of white smoke into the air and that faint smell of incense. Lama Temple, the capital of the largest Buddhist temple, located in the north of Beijing. Even in such an ordinary day, the incense is still strong.
Perhaps among the downtown's sake, Lama Temple, the lack of share of the temple should be quiet. Si Wai traffic stop, Temple and a small open area full of parked cars from all sides. Entering the temple, the hustle and bustle is all kinds of pilgrims. I quietly sigh in mind, this is the land of Buddhist Kiyonaga Mody? Are aimlessly walking in the temple, watching people burn incense and worship Buddha. A shadow thing that catches my eye, the big crimson robe, yellow belt, has gray hair and beard. The Lama Temple monks, holding Buddha bead, along the way they dress. Line to the Buddha, incense, salute with one hand and a foot between the revealing is to transcend the temperament, it is this temperament crowd I found him, and deeply shocked me. GU since he walked, as if only to live in his own world where everything around him not affect.
Around the people are still continue to worship their own, people find it strange that the pilgrims are mostly focused on the young. Everyone's faces were full of piety. Fate was more confused, nor is the fate of the puzzle can be resolved in that prayer. However, this prayer may be able to be encouraged to move on its own in the real world power. Human beings are petty, but it can step by step to advance religion, which in the end, in this played a role in how much, enough of any one human scientist study.
Continue to walk at the temple, Look at 26 meters tall and made of entirely of a sandalwood Buddha, look at the roof's cornice hanging angle. The characteristics of religious architecture is also reflected in the Lama Temple of the buildings, tall, solemn, people awe. However, the overall layout of the Lama Temple and other temples in different but has a relatively good symmetry, perhaps this is because the Lama Temple was adapted from the original palace caused by bar.
Religion and politics have always been inseparable pair, which reflect deeper on the Lama Temple. The Lama Temple in the Qing dynasty and the modern have had to bear the contact regime, the central government and Tibet's important role, which might have been to continue.
