A monk lying in a Buddhist temple

Cangyanshan reclining Buddha Temple is a temple managed by Jingxing Buddhist Association. There are three monks there, and one of the youngest-looking masters (as can be seen from their photos) is being ordained by a monk in Bailin Temple, and will not come back until 1 1 month later. When I went there, there were only two monks who became monks and were ordained, Master Sadaqing and Master Sadaqing. Both of them are from Shanxi. They were ordained in Bailin Temple in 2003, and they are brother and sister.

Judging from my feelings in those days, Master Sad Qing really has a big temper. His family is an ancestral doctor, who occasionally helps people tell their fortune through Zhouyi. There is also a daughter at home who is going to college. During my six days there, he was very strict with me and scolded me from time to time.

However, Master Sorrow is a very talkative person. He is calm and expressionless most of the time. Another expression is to see him smile. When chatting with him, he said that his family was a farmer, his mother believed in Buddhism, and he converted with her. After her death, he became a monk. Master Sorrow is a good-natured person. Although his speech can never correct his dialect, and I have some communication obstacles with him, I sometimes prefer to ask him for some Buddhist knowledge in my spare time. When I didn't see him in person, but only saw his photo in the sad teacher's dormitory, it seemed that my fate with him was doomed.

The Sleeping Buddha Temple is managed by the lay family. There are about six elderly lay people who take care of the temple there, all of whom are my grandparents. Those grandparents are very kind to me, a kind of simplicity unique to mountain people.
