Brief introduction of Yan Guang Temple in Chongzhou, Sichuan

? Chongzhou city Yan Guang Buddhist Temple is located on the plain of western Sichuan, 92km away from Chengdu. Climbing Fengqi Mountain along the Panshan Highway next to Jiezi Ancient Town is a "land of paradise" with beautiful scenery and flowers. The sound of the morning bell and the evening drum of Yan Guang Buddhist Temple has echoed here for more than 1,400 years.

? In 58 1 year, Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty established the Sui Dynasty. He lived in a Buddhist temple since he was a child and was raised by a Buddhist monk, Bhikuni, until he was thirteen years old, so Emperor Wendi of Sui still had deep feelings for Buddhism after he proclaimed himself emperor. During Renshou period, 36 temples were built, of which Chorakuji Temple (now Yan Guang Temple) was the largest.

? Around 660 AD, the Indian Udinese lost to Bogaro (known as carefree) and came to China with his brother (known as Suhakarasingha). In the fifth year of Kaiyuan, he was ordered to translate scriptures in the Bodhi Institute of Ximing Temple in Chang 'an. In that year, he helped Sumitomo to translate a book called "The Method of Holding in the Empty Hide". Tang Xuanzong later named Xu Bodhi a Buddhist. In the 23rd year of Kaiyuan, Sumitomo Buddha died in Dasheng Temple in Luoyang. In the 25th year of Kaiyuan, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty became a Buddhist teacher after his brother because he was good at thinking, knowledgeable and proficient in Sanskrit and Chinese. In the 14th year of Tianbao, An Shi Rebellion happened. Shan followed Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty to Sichuan to avoid disaster. After the rebellion, Shan Wu Si didn't want to go back to Chang 'an, so he came to Fengqishan Chorakuji Temple to practice and became an abbot.

A few years later, Yanwu, our diplomatic envoy to give up, visited and saw that the temple was in ruins, so he told the Ming court that Chorakuji Temple was rebuilt under the kind and considerate auspices.

In 769 AD, Shan Wusi died in Changle Temple, and its stupa is well preserved to this day.

In 845 AD, Tang Wuzong Li Yan ordered that "Buddhism should be suppressed" and the Chorakuji Temple was demolished.

Decades later, Chorakuji Temple resumed reconstruction. Tang Qiu, a poet who lives in seclusion on the street, wrote in "On Chorakuji Temple": "Gui Lengxiang smells ten miles, and the hall is not like a person. Looking back at the river head at sunset, a clear cloud is in the back mountain. "

Around A.D. 1 173, Chorakuji Temple was renamed Cuiwei Temple. When Lu You, a poet of the Song Dynasty, was a judge in Zhou Shu (present-day chongzhou city), he visited and left a poem "Cuiwei Temple"-"Dawn enters Cuiwei Temple, holding a thousand peaks. Birds sing in the mountains and deer follow. The wind is blowing, and the clock is faint outside the cloud. I won't be exhausted, I will rely on Chang Song. "

In A.D. 1204, Daoji monk happened to visit Cuiwei Temple, leaving the handwriting "There is no Sakyamuni Buddha in the South", which is still hanging in the Hall of the Great Hero. Dao Ji, commonly known as Ji Gong monk or Ji Dian monk, does more good deeds, punishes evil and promotes good, and punishes one to persuade a hundred. He is legendary and respected as a living Buddha by later generations.

Cuiwei Temple was later renamed Chorakuji Temple.

Wukong, whose common name is Zhu Wuliu and whose legal name is Faren (A.D.131425), is the younger brother of Zhu Yuanzhang's father Zhu. Originally from Zhongli County, Bozhou, Anhui Province (now Taiping Village, Fengyang), he became a monk in Huang Jue Temple since childhood.

In A.D. 1344, 17-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang was forced to make a living, and at the suggestion of his neighbors, he went to Huang Jue Temple to go to his uncle Faren. After his uncle pleaded with the abbot, he was able to cut his hair and become a monk. Faren then instructed my nephew to recite scriptures, learn to read and write, and live as a Buddhist.

In A.D. 135 1 year, natural disasters continued, and people's livelihood was difficult, and the life of monks in Huang Jue Temple was difficult. Both uncles and nephews left the temple, thinking about the uncertain future on the way, so they shed tears and did not part ways. Faren went through a lot of hardships to seek dharma in India, and returned a Bayeux Sutra. After practicing in Tibet for many years, he was appointed as an official in charge of ethnic affairs by the court at the end of Yuan Dynasty because of his proficiency in Sino-Tibetan language and high knowledge and virtue. Fallon lived up to his mission and was deeply respected by Tibetans, who regarded him as a bodhisattva. But because of his integrity, he was forced to leave Tibet and go to Chorakuji Temple to practice and become a host.

In a.d. 1368, the Ming emperor Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor. When Fallon learned this, he practiced wholeheartedly. He didn't ask for it, he took it lightly and kept hiding in the mountains.

? In A.D. 1370, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that his uncle had taught for several years and ordered temples all over the country to visit his uncle. Chunzhu, the king of Shu, met his father and granduncle who missed him day and night in Chorakuji Temple, but Faren didn't want to go down to see Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply moved to learn that his uncle would not be moved by the secular world. He wrote the words "Pure and Unforgettable" and gave it to his uncle (the inscription is also embedded in front of the Ursa Major Hall), and wrote a letter to rebuild Chorakuji Temple (the words "Daming Built" are still on the beam of the Ursa Major Hall). Give the emperor a pair of pots; A pair of dragon and phoenix flags; Luan frame half a pair; There are five glazed tile houses and halls (there are several glazed tiles carved with dragons).

In a.d. 1372, Zhu Yuanzhang implemented the "Yan Wu Wen Xiu" and ordered the official edition of the Tripitaka-Hongwu Nanzang to be engraved in the South Jingjiang Mountain Temple. Later, it was engraved in a.d. 1398, but only two copies were printed.

? In his later years, Zhu Yuanzhang was supposed to be his grandson Zhu Yunwen, but he took a fancy to the emperor's fourth son Judy. In a dilemma, I once asked a question to test my uncle. The first one is "The Wind Blows a Thousand Lines", and the second one is required. Zhu Yunwen responded to "the wool in the blanket is hit by rain", and Judy thought about "the lantern in the dragon forest in Rizhao". Zhu Yuanzhang was worried about Zhu Di's heart and decided to give it to his grandson Zhu Yunwen. After he ascended the throne, he had a premonition that something might happen in the future, so he secretly gave Zhu Yunwen an iron box and told him to open it at a critical moment, which could avoid a catastrophe.

? In A.D. 1399, Ming Huidi Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne, and Judy, the prince of Yan, launched a battle for the throne in the name of "Jun Qing side".

In A.D. 1403, Zhu Di arrived at the Palace, and a fire besieged Zhu Yunwen, Ming Huidi. In this desperate moment, he remembered the iron box given by the emperor, so he opened the box and found a razor and cassock inside. Another letter pointed out that there was a secret passage leading directly to the palace and marked the entrance of the secret passage. Zhu Yunwen then dived out of the secret passage alone, and his entourage was swallowed up by the fire together with the palace. After Zhu Yunwen left the palace, he saw a river crossing in front of him. At the critical moment, he was lucky enough to meet Zheng Wu, a Taoist priest of Qingcheng Mountain, and unexpectedly arrived at Chorakuji Temple, Fengqi Mountain, which is adjacent to Qingcheng Mountain, to avoid disaster. A few years later, spies sent by the imperial court followed, and Zhu Yunwen quickly fled from Chorakuji Temple.

In A.D. 14 16, Chunzhu, the king of Shu, once again told Judy, the uncle of Shu, that he was practicing in Chorakuji Temple. Emperor Yongle gave Faren Wukong, named Chorakuji Temple "Yan Guang Buddhist Temple" and gave Hongwu Nanzang (678 letters, 1600 volumes). The existing Sichuan Library has not yet returned to the Buddha.

? Around AD 1425, the abbot of Yan Guang Temple, the uncle of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor, passed away. The stone pagoda of the remains of Zen master Wukong stands at the highest point of Yan Guang Temple, which is the center of ancestral pagodas in past dynasties. Zen master Wukong devoted his life to promoting Buddhism, and his merits were quite high. Until he became an immortal, Buddhism was not obvious. (Today, the statue tower of Zen master Wukong is still there, but it was destroyed in A.D. 195 1. Only a photo of Zhang Zhengui in the Wukong Tower was left.

A few years later, Zhu Yunwen traveled to Yunnan, Guizhou, Pakistan and other places, and returned to Chorakuji Temple again, hoping to make a comeback. After that, Zhu Yunwen didn't leave Fengqi Mountain, but hid in Houshan after his death.

Afterwards, it was discovered that there was a poem on the wall of the Zen room where he lived:

Autumn enters the southwest in forty autumn,

Mix has white hair.

Where is Gankun's home?

Rivers are silent, and water flows by itself.

Clouds scattered in Changle Palace,

The rain fell on the Yuan Pavilion.

Green fragrant willow is green every year,

The wild old man swallowed and cried.

After reading the explanation, I am too lazy to knock.

Laugh at Huang Jia to send a group gourd ladle.

There are thousands of hills in the south,

Looking north at Tianmen, Wan Li is far away.

Wide satin has long forgotten the flying phoenix,

The robe is a new robe.

At this time of the officials where to know?

It's just that birds have to face it sooner or later.

? At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang sent troops to Sichuan, and Master Manatee, then the abbot of the temple, heard the news and led the monks to take the magic weapon Hongwu Nanzang to Ya 'an to avoid disaster. Yan Guang Temple was not spared, and the monks returned to rebuild after the military disaster.

? In A.D. 1673, that is, Kangxi 1 1 year of Qing Dynasty, the monk and child Pharaoh led the monks and ten lay monks to rebuild the temple again. Emperor Kangxi realized the importance of Yan Guang Temple and happily inscribed the plaque of Yan Guang Temple, which is still hanging above the mountain gate.

In A.D. 1932, that is, in 2 1 year of the Republic of China, Daoquan, the 43rd abbot of Lin Jizong, rebuilt the hall, living room and ancestral temple of Yan Guang Temple, fully adopted the ideas of some scholars and lay people in design, and highlighted the characteristics of China Temple with a slightly western architectural style. This uniqueness is unique in Fiona Fang thousands of miles away. At that time, Yin Lai Temple, commander-in-chief of the Sichuan military government, lived in seclusion, and the abbot kindly entrusted him with the right to Taoism, so he wrote a pair of couplets, which are still hanging outside the Daxiong Hall. The association expressed Yin's life experience of seeing through the world-"If you don't come from people, you don't know the bright road; And where to dye Shui Xin. "

/kloc-in the summer of 0/945 (that is, in 34 years of the Republic of China), Lin Sen, Chairman of the National Government, ignored Gaoshan Road and sneaked to Yan Guang Temple to read Hongwu Nanzang. Later, Yu Youren, the inspector-general and auditor-general of the National Government, also went to the temple to learn Buddhist scriptures, and left the words "Tibetan Classics Building" in Mo Bao. Later, a plaque was hung on the sutra building.

? In A.D. 195 1 year, New China implemented land reform. 1946, Master Deng Kuan, who took over as the forty-fourth abbot of Lin Jizong, was classified as a landlord, criticized and beaten, and underwent labor reform.

In June of the same year, Yao Tianxin, the county magistrate of Chongqing county government, learned of the preciousness of Hongwu Nanzang and immediately begged the superior government to take care of it.

Master Deng Kuan watched helplessly as the ancestral treasure Hongwu Nanzang, who had devoted countless sweat and sincere care since he could remember, was moved out of the Buddhist scripture building in bundles, but there was nothing he could do and tears filled his eyes. The Cultural and Educational Office of the Western Sichuan Administrative Office sent three trucks to send Hongwu Nanzang to the provincial museum and then store it in the provincial library. However, the Bayeux Sutra returned by Zen master Wukong still remains in the cultural management department of Chongqing County.

In the same year, a group of unidentified people opened the stone tower of Zen master Wukong. One of them stabbed Jackson Wukong's thigh with a rifle, twisted it hard and dragged Wukong out of the pagoda. The lifelike Zen master was destroyed in this way. The monks present and those who heard about it later were in tears.

In A.D. 1959, all the monks in Yan Guang Temple were sent back to their original places, and Master Deng Kuan returned to his hometown to engage in agricultural reform. His brother Deng Ji couldn't stand the cruel reality, so he hanged himself. My brother Deng Shangli joined the China People's Liberation Army. Since then, no monks have come to take care of Yan Guang Temple, only the empty hall is silently waiting for the sound of morning bell, dusk drum, wooden fish and menstruation.

In A.D. 1966, the Chongqing County People's Government demolished the Shanggu Temple in Yan Guang Temple and built the county people's meeting place with wood, leaving a desolate site. Gu Xia Temple was used as a pharmaceutical factory in Chongqing in 1958, and survived the demolition.

In A.D. 1984, with the care and support of governments at all levels, Yan Guang Temple was officially opened to the public. The name of this temple is called Jiezi Yan Guang Ancient Temple, which is called the Ancient Temple for short. The government decided to welcome Master Deng Kuan back to the temple as abbot. On July 15, Fengqi Mountain, which had been silent for many years, boiled. Firecrackers, gongs and drums, and chanting are endless. People from Chengdu, Chongqing and Jiezi gathered in the Yan Guang Ancient Temple. Good men and women are vying to see the Guangkuan Dharma, and a layman is in tears because there are too many people to get close. The moment Master Guangkuan stepped into the mountain gate, he couldn't help crying when he saw the ruined temple and the swaying weeds. At this point, the sound of the morning bell and the evening drum echoed in the peak forest of Fengqi Mountain for a long time again.

On1July 3, 9851day, Yan Guang Temple and Gu Xia Temple were listed as key cultural relics protection units by Chengdu Municipal People's Government.

In 2002, Master Dengkuan restored and rebuilt the burning lamp hall of the ancient temple, and Kannonji ushered in the day when Jieyin Temple was completed and opened. The leaders of Fuxiehe Street Town in provinces and cities personally congratulated him, which is unprecedented. On September 17 of the same year, Master Dengkuan felt that he was old (he was 102 years old), and appointed disciple Yan Gu Temple abbot XX as the 45th abbot of Linjizong, which was confirmed by Chengdu Buddhist Association on September 3, 2003.

On February 27th, 65438, the sites of Xiagu Temple and Shanggu Temple in Yan Guang were appraised as key cultural relics protection units by Sichuan Provincial People's Government.

In 2004, thanks to the joint efforts of Master Deng Kuan and Master XX, as well as monks and great monks, the Buddhist Temple, Bell Tower and Drum Tower of Yan Guang Ancient Temple were opened.

On July 6th, 2005, Master Deng Kuan died at the age of/kloc-0. At the age of seven, the mage came to the ancient temple in Yan Guang and became a monk. Nearly a hundred years later, he preached Buddhism for the benefit of students, and later revived Taoism and trained monks. His achievements are endless. Before his death, the master had a unique insight and entrusted the important task to Master XX, but unfortunately he could not wait until the day when Hongwu Nanzang, the treasure of the town temple, returned to the temple. In the same year, the reconstruction project of the Buddhist Sutra Building of Shanggu Temple and Daxiong Hall broke ground and is expected to be completed by the end of 2007.

In May, 2007, Master XX appointed Master XX, who graduated from Guangde Buddhist College, to assist in the management of the temple affairs, in view of the need of spreading the Buddha's light and inheriting the strict Taoist style of the ancestors in Yan Guang ancient temple Dojo. With the joint efforts of teachers, apprentices and monks, Yan Guang Ancient Temple will become a harmonious Dojo for practitioners and good people.

At this point, the ancient temple in Yan Guang, with a history of 1400 years, has peacefully ushered in a bright future with Buddha's light shining in the expectation of the government and the majority of monks and nuns.
