I went to Shanxi, Wutai is the first stop, according to Mary, my birthday's calculations, Manjusri is my patron saint. Can be a trip to his temples, but also forget one of my wishes. In fact, more important is the Giant Buddha Temple Mount Wutai doucun temptation for me. 6:00 get up enough time to the hotel free breakfast, they hurry off. Shanxi Province in mid-December ice and snow, uh, gas into the ice, things along the way depression, trees dying, only the pale yellow of the hay in the howling winter shivering in the cold.
Shanxi is rich in coal mines, to begin to burn coal for heating in winter, there is no burn the coal dust floating in the air, but to the Taiwan became pregnant with clean up days, the sun is warmer, swept away in Taiyuan, the kind of cold, the air Refreshing also, and you can smell a hint of Kusaka. The snow has given way to and from the way the wheels crushed into black ice, under the sun into a Wang stagnant water, no one in town, only the children frolic in the snow. The summer market is now empty, the square of the snow reflecting the dazzling light, according to people lazy.
Our guides are local land access, some do not fall in. Qianyan out in appearance, actually took us to a small private hotel. I immediately asked her to the National Tourism Administration issued the certificate to show me the star, D also said that inside the room not a bad look, they and the hotel people are hedged and said boss is away, I said, star standard is hung on the wall , and not hidden in the boss pocket. After some argument we have finally moved to Taiwan will conceive a 3 star hotel, but to pick the right we have also resentment.
At noon at the hotel, food, dishes in general, like me, do not eat beef and mutton for people who travel in the North is doomed to suffer the mouth. The menu has everything Taiwanese giant mushroom dishes are extremely expensive, from afar, causing a mushroom of the touted Taiwan, we have dismantled a large amount of money a point of Taiwan mushroom soup, taste delicious indeed. Chiba is the 12 o'clock lunch, ground access to rest, do not want to take us up the mountain, so I and D alone, along the Hill Road north. Village Hotel, not far from the rain, there is a small temple in the repair, south-facing windows and doors have been removed, scattered on the ground. Five of the temple there is a characteristic of the knee is the door and people in general places a high dragon carved groups, leading the middle, the dragon body coiled, four claws open, powerful and brave. But only where the dragon is in the door directly chiseled out of the way with relief lines smooth lifelike. While the door is not painted, but after years of erosion, has been damaged, but the dragon's Olympus group was more eye-catching spirited. I can not help a thief wanted to put it back at home, or sent for paper and ink, even if the extension it down, but I had the pain Acacia future.
Then this time to the distinguished group began to take us to the temple is the famous monasteries in Taiwan concentration of Wye. Manjusri as its temple, and sure enough away from the hubbub of ethereal ease, if thousands of miles to worship in the summer people are doing it, and in this cold winter, still can not stop my pace. Wutai Temple of the temple is divided into green and yellow Temple, Green Temple is the temple monks, Huang Temple is lamasery. Although the shrine are the Buddha and Bodhisattva Manjusri, but the instruments used are different. Remember that when the emblem of the time due to the study in Shanxi, who held onto a turning round of the pictures, I immediately followed, and afterwards found expression and loss is, indeed, failure. Many temples in Taiwan, only after a long time can not 11 recall, but the next morning, after Deng Dai Luoding down the mountain, see a row of four people, my body apron, step 1 Koushou.
Mount Wutai is the Manjusri Bodhisattva's temples, each temple dedicated to Manjusri. Chaoshan believers worship, all the top five Taiwan Bai Guo, known as the "big toward Taiwan." Qianlong order to be convenient "big toward Taiwan," Ming Dai Luoding year in the main hall inside the temple's abbot, five co-Monju, like plastic, from the foot of the mountain to the Peak total of 1080 steps, all with the Wutai Mountain bluestone paved. Hill once said that worship is not sincere in car, ignoring her own 95 Extreme Qianlong personally boarded the Dai Luoding. But the winter season, the snow left on the blue stone steps, one hand on the stone stairs to emerge by a clear palm-prints, can be biting cold. But these pilgrims who relied in good faith, the heart can not concentrate, they do at each step must be affixed to the body to the mountains, it may not reach the noon peak. That's the spirit, but made me this onlooker could not help but burst into tears, what the Buddha incense-filled Wishing need our mind is the belief that the soul sustenance. I Ce Guoshen to enable them to have enough space for expressing hearts Thanks for the Memories, in such a misty mountain, I am the Buddha's mercy and broad, selfishness, and distracting thoughts seem to have left with tears, had humble mind.
