Zhunti Pavilion, surrounded by mountains and lakes, enjoys a quiet environment, climbing high and looking far, "the river peak is far and near" and "the water is full of six bridges and low". This is an ancient building with Huizhou national style. The original jade Buddha, eighteen arhats and other exquisite statues in the pavilion no longer exist. Now the garden department has reclaimed the former site of Zhunti Pavilion, and plans to rebuild the second-floor temple pavilion, carve eighteen arhats, green the garden, and restore the "quasi-elevated pavilion overlooking the whole lake by leaning against the sunset." I don't think I am wandering to Lingyin, I am hiding in the lake. Zhunti Temple was built in Ming Dynasty. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, it was called Ruikai Pavilion. Later, because Zhunti Bodhisattva was enshrined in the pavilion, it was renamed Zhunti Pavilion. Zhunti Pavilion is a famous Buddhist temple in Lingnan, where many eminent monks and great virtues lived. Among them, Kongyin monk Daodu, Gui Lian monk Jinshi, Xueqiao monk Zhenpu, Zhunti monk Yuanya gave lectures here successively, making Zhunti Pavilion one of the most famous Zen forests in Dongjiang and Lingnan in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

"Zhunti Roy" was once one of the famous scenic spots in West Lake. 1903, Su, a famous revolutionary monk, came to Huizhou to learn from an old monk and became a monk for the second time.

1953, the 18th Luohan Statue and Zhunti Guanyin Statue in Zhunti Pavilion were destroyed, then the former site was converted into Xihu Middle School, and the Zen Temple was handed over to the garrison in 1969. From 65438 to 0986, Zhunti Pavilion was placed under the administration of Huizhou local government. After more than 400 years of ups and downs, Zhunti Pavilion finally avoided the fate of destroyed Buddhist temples such as the West Lake and yongfu temple, and survived.

/kloc-After the army handed over the temple land in the 1980s, Zhunti Temple was restored to its original site. The old house left by the army has fallen into disrepair.

1996 Huizhou municipal government approved the reconstruction plan of Zhunti Temple. The temple began to raise more than 20 million yuan for reconstruction.

In 2005, tickets for the main scenic spots of West Lake were cancelled. Because Zhunti Pavilion is no longer under the management of the West Lake Administration, and Zhunti Pavilion is not mentioned in the introduction of the West Lake Scenic Area, the popularity of Zen Temple has dropped significantly.

After Zhunti Pavilion Daxiong Hall and Guanyin Hall were put into use on 1998 and 200 1 respectively, the other reconstruction projects stopped.

In 2008, a landslide occurred on the hillside of Zen Temple. The rise of Buddhism in the West Lake can be traced back to the Fuhutai built by Buddhist slips in Yingangling area at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. After that, Huizhou Buddhism flourished and declined, and really flourished in the Southern Song Dynasty. According to records, during the Southern Song Dynasty, the forest on the top of the mountain near the West Lake in Huizhou was covered with various Buddhist temples, security halls, quiet houses and Taoist temples. Every morning and evening, when the morning bell is ringing and the smoke from the wild mountain temple is curling up, there is a vivid sentence of Yang Wanli's "Fengtou Temple Building on the Moon".

After entering the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's policy of restricting the freedom of Buddhism played a certain role in restraining the development of Buddhism, and Huizhou was no exception. In the 200-year history of Ming Dynasty, Huizhou Buddhism was no longer grand. In the early years of Hongwu, the Seven Zen Temple, Jiayou Temple, Yuantong Temple and Guangxiao Temple of Huizhou West Lake were all incorporated into yongfu temple. During the Chenghua period, monks in yongfu temple were still in debt and ran away, showing the depression of Huizhou Buddhism in Ming Dynasty. During Jiajing and Wanli periods in Ming Dynasty, due to the arrival of several eminent monks, Buddhist activities in Huizhou became active. For example, Vacuum Zen Master, Hanshan Zen Master, Zhongnan Monk and Kongyin Daodu successively came to Huizhou West Lake and Luofu Mountain, and gathered in yongfu temple, Gu Rong Temple, Liudu Temple, Zhunti Pavilion and Huashitou Station to preach the Dharma. At this point, the Zhunti Pavilion appeared in Huizhou West Lake.

Comparatively speaking, Zhunti Pavilion is not as famous as yongfu temple, but this situation changed obviously in the early years of Qing Dynasty. It turns out that the Zhunti Pavilion overlooking the two lakes, Feng and Crocodile, has won the victory of one lake. In addition to its superior geographical position, an abbot changed its position in Huizhou Buddhist history. The abbot's name in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province is monk Xue Wei. After Dingge in Ming and Qing Dynasties, he refused to join the new dynasty and cut his hair and became a monk. In the early years of Kangxi, monk Su Xue came to Huizhou to preach the Dharma, so Zhunti Pavilion soon became the base for people with lofty ideals in Huizhou to fight against the Qing Dynasty and regain their sight. Monk Xue Wei himself is a typical cultural monk. As the saying goes, "There is no Ding Bai between us", and it is natural that Zhunti Pavilion became the place where Huizhou literati sang at that time. On the hillside near the base of Zhunti Temple near the West Lake, there have been continuous cracks in the cement on the ground. Due to the large cracks in the ground, the stone fence of the temple Daxiong Hall has also broken. Fearing that tourists would be in danger, temple managers isolated the railings with steel pipes.

In 2008, a landslide occurred on the hillside of the temple, but since then, the mountain of the temple has only been simply maintained and only a few trees have been planted. Due to landslides and soil erosion, the ground of the Buddhist temple has suddenly risen about 30 cm above the hillside. Shi Zhiren, the abbot of the monastery, said that because he was very worried about landslides, he now patrolled around the monastery every night before going to bed to see if there was any danger around the mountain.

Not only the danger of landslides, but also the iron house where monks live. The dormitory with three monks in the tin house on the hillside is facing the hidden danger of collapse, and obvious cracks have appeared on the ground next to the tin house.

Now all the monks in Buddhist temples live in simple dormitories covered with iron sheets or asbestos tiles. In summer, it is more than 30 degrees Celsius outside, and it can reach more than 40 degrees Celsius in an iron house. Because the power supply of the temple is drawn from nearby troops and the substation is far away, the whole temple can only maintain two air conditioners at most because of the low voltage during the peak power consumption. At present, there are 17 monks and staff living in several iron houses in the whole temple. In summer, they can't get air conditioning and live like a steamer. Huizhou became one of the last battlefields to resist the Qing Dynasty and protect the Ming Dynasty when Shen Jia changed the dynasty, the Qing army entered the customs and the Jin, Ge, Tie and Ma crossed the south. Many Huizhou scholars resolutely joined the Nanming regime and fought to the death with the Qing army to support the crisis; After failing to save the country, he vowed not to cooperate with the Qing court, or to live in seclusion in the countryside in an attempt to recover; Or eat poor and write books; Or convert to Buddhism and sharpen their ambitions-Ye Tingying, Yao, Ye Weicheng and others are outstanding representatives. Together with a large number of Lingnan adherents such as Jinshi, Qu Dajun and Chen Gongyin who stayed in Huizhou, they formed a group of poets with a strong lineup. They were sad and generous. In addition to Ye Weicheng's Bi Garden and Ye Weiyang's Garden, Huizhou also has Zhunti Pavilion.

Zhunti Pavilion was named Ruikai Pavilion in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. The Buddha Pavilion stands at the foot of Chongdao Mountain, overlooking the rich crocodile lake. Xiangshan stands in the north, two rivers come from the east, and beside the Jade Pagoda, gulls gather at the mountain gate, and the clouds are lingering. Can be said to be the victory of a lake, is a solemn treasure hall. Why did such a clean Buddhist land become the contact point of anti-Qing dynasty? It turned out that the abbot of the Buddha Pavilion at that time was a monk named Zhangzhou, Fujian, with a common surname of Xu. After his death in the Ming Dynasty, he wanted to start a family because he refused to join the new dynasty. His name is Zhenpu, and Kangxi came to Huizhou to teach Dharma. With a figure like the abbot, people with lofty ideals who are anti-Qing and regain their sight naturally often stop at the Buddha Pavilion. The legal successor of the Taoist priest is a typical cultural monk who is virtuous and loaded with things. He once rebuilt Cao Nianpu and compiled "Hong Jue Zen Master's Journey to the North". He is good at calligraphy and painting, and he can also write poems. Gan Long's "Guishan County Records" recorded his three "Hu Feng Ji Xing", which was made when he sang with others at that time. The poem reads: "The suburban original group moved to Yuntang." Then he said, "Let's have dinner in the morning. One person leans on the plum with a cane." It can be seen that although he lives in seclusion, his mood is not easy to maintain the ambition of Lao Shuang.

In fact, it was the political choice of many Han intellectuals to draw a clear line with the new dynasty during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and Ye Tingying, the great-grandson of Ye Mengxiong, the former minister of the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Army, also took this road. The English word is often hidden, so today it comes out of Ye's genealogy. His real name is from Fucheng, Huizhou, and he was a disciple of Doctor Buyi during Chongzhen. After the death of the Ming Dynasty, he refused to wear clothes from the Qing Dynasty and could not live in seclusion. Finally, he became a monk in Zhunti Pavilion and adopted a new name, Bi Yuan. Yuan Ya is also a poet and monk. He wrote Jade and Water Clouds and Swallows. He wrote a poem "West Lake Mountain Residence" in Zhunti Pavilion, and the last two sentences said: "The fate is lost, what else can you expect?" The words seem to be open-minded, but they can see the poet's deep sadness. Ting Ying also got the legend of snow, painting and calligraphy, especially painting Buddha statues and arhats, almost every day. Luo Guiren has a poem praising him for "painting Buddha 5,480 and lotus flowers in inkstone pond every day". His works, "the winner thinks it is an arch", "spread in the sea". There is a famous landscape hidden in Hejiang Caotang, which Jiang once mentioned in a poem, saying that "the paintings and frames are both English in Ye Ting, so the Caotang is semi-psychic". Later generations respect his national integrity and cherish his legacy.
