Today, I have the honor to show you the Longxing Temple, a key culturalrelic maintenance unit in China. Longxing Temple is one of the famous temples inChina, known as the four treasures of North China. It was first built in thesixth year of kaihuang in Sui Dynasty, and now has a history of more than 1400years. In fact, the original name of Longxing Temple was "longzang Temple", thatis, longzang with hidden dragon and crouching tiger. In the early Song Dynasty,the Tibetan character was changed to exuberant Xing character. In the 49th yearof Kangxi, it was changed to the name we saw at the beginning - Longxing Temple.From the name we can also think of, in the past dynasties, our Longxing Templeincense has been so prosperous.
Longxing Temple, with Dabei Pavilion as the main body, is a Song Dynastybuilding group with a huge north-south depth. The existing area of the temple is82500 square meters, and the important buildings are distributed on thenorth-south axis and its two sides. All the buildings are scattered high andlow, and the primary and secondary are obvious. It is the main example to studythe architectural layout of Buddhist temples in the Song Dynasty. After so manyintroductions, you must be very interested in this religious building complexwith thousands of history. Now please follow me to have a look at its mysteriousappearance!
There are six cultural relics in Longxing Temple, which can be regarded asthe most in China. They pass through the Tianwang hall and Dajue Liushi hall.Now in front of you, this majestic hall is the first one we want to visit today,which is the most isolated example of Chinese Architecture: mani hall. Mani hallwas built in the fourth year of Huangyou reign of the Northern Song Dynasty,covering an area of 1400 square meters. As you can see, its layout is verystrange. The center of the main hall is Xieshan with double eaves. In the centerof the four sides of the square hall, there is a mountain flower in each side.Xieshan Baoxia in front of it makes the whole building form a cross shape. Fromthe outside, we can see that the whole hall overlaps magnificently and is fullof changes. This kind of architectural method is the only remaining example ofSong Dynasty architecture in China. If you look at it again, the brackets underthe eaves of the hall are large, the distribution is sparse, the columns arethick, and there are obvious rolling brake side corners and rising, which areconsistent with the Song Dynasty's "construction law". Liang Sicheng, an expertin Chinese ancient architecture, praised the invention of Mani hall. He saidthat this kind of layout was only seen in Song Dynasty paintings except theturret of the Forbidden City in Beijing. Do you have the feeling of shuttlingthrough time and space in Song Dynasty paintings now? Let's get out of theAssociation quickly. After appreciating the individual buildings in thispainting from the appearance, let's go in and enjoy its more beautiful sceneryConnotation!
Please pay attention. Now I'm going to introduce the second most beautifulstatue in Longxing Temple, the most beautiful inverted Guanyin in China. Pleaselook at this colorful clay sculpture hanging mountain on the north wall of theinner trough of Mani hall. There are more than 30 clay statues in the hangingmountain, but the most noticeable one is the colorful Guanyin Bodhisattva in themiddle, commonly known as "inverted Guanyin". Because Guanyin Bodhisattva hasthe oath of "all living beings will never be able to reach the end of universalsalvation, and all living beings will never reach the end of universalsalvation", it constitutes the image of inverted sitting Guanyin. The statue ofAvalokitesvara is 3.4 meters high. Please look at the eyes with deep wisdomoverlooking us. Do you feel shocked? In fact, what is beautiful about her is notonly her elegant posture and elegant appearance, but also her vast mind andtouching charity.
Through the archway and the altar, we can see that scattered on both sidesof the central axis are two typical two-story pavilions built in the NorthernSong Dynasty, which can be distinguished as the lunzang Pavilion and the CihuaPavilion.
The zhuanlunzang pavilion was built in the Northern Song Dynasty. Thediameter of the zhuanlunzang Pavilion in front of us is 7 meters. It is dividedinto three parts: the Tibetan seat, the Tibetan body and the Tibetan roof. Nextto it is a 10.8-meter wooden shaft. You will be interested to ask what is theuse of such a special magic weapon? According to historical records,zhuanluncang was created for the convenience of illiterate believers or thosewho had no time to read scriptures in the southern Liang Dynasty. The believerspush the wheel for a week and read the Scriptures again. Although it has beenthousands of years, it can be rolled gradually with the help of two or threepeople. Isn't it amazing? As a special kind of magic weapon, it has a history ofmore than 1400 years. However, due to affectation and man-made reasons, thereare few existing objects in the sea. Among them, lunzang in Longxing Temple isthe oldest and the largest one, which is ten years old Precious historicalremains.
As we all know, in the history of Chinese calligraphy, the Sui Dynasty wasa transitional period from Hanli to Tangkai, and the longzangsi stele that Iwant to introduce now is just the representative work of this period. Its fontis dull and broad, clumsy but elegant, stable but not stagnant. It can be saidthat it is standard regular script and valuable material for studying thehistory of Chinese calligraphy. Kang Youwei, a famous scholar in modern times,also praised this monument as "the first monument of Sui Dynasty", and latergenerations even called it "the ancestor of regular script". Let's have a goodlook at it. First model net collects this article
What we are seeing now is the Dabei Pavilion, the main building of LongxingTemple. Entering it, we will see a 21.3-meter-high bronze cast iron Guanyin,which was forged in the fourth year of Kaibao in the Northern Song Dynasty. Ithas 42 arms. Besides its two eyes, it has 20 hands on each side of its body,holding different magic weapons separately. Each hand has one eye, which becomes40 hands and 40 eyes. It is said that each hand eye has 25 kinds of mana, and 40hands and 25 eyes become thousands of hands and thousands of eyes. Therefore,this Avalokitesvara is also known as "Avalokitesvara with thousands of hands andeyes". It is worth mentioning that as early as more than 1000 years ago, withoutmechanization, the bronze Buddha was completely cast by hand, which invented awonder in the history of metallurgy and foundry in the world. It is preciselybecause of its existence that people naturally called Longxing Temple "GreatBuddha Temple".
Finally, we came to the Pilu hall, where a bronze statue of Pilu Buddha wasworshipped in the middle. "Pilu" is the Sanskrit abbreviation of "piluzana",which means "shining everywhere". Pilu Buddha is Sakyamuni's Dharma Buddha. ThisPilu Buddha is 6.72 meters high. There is a small Buddha cast on the Chiba lotuspetals of the three-layer rosette, resulting in the pattern of "Thousand Buddhascircling Pilu". There are also three layers of four Zhou Buddhas, a total of 12.Each Pilu Buddha wears a five Buddha crown. There are 1072 large and smallBuddha statues on the whole Buddha statue, which has a high historical,superstitious and artistic value. It can be called an isolated case at home andabroad.
