Jingde Temple

, located in the ancient town of Maoshan, Xinghua, Jiangsu, has a history of nearly two thousand years. As early as the Han Dynasty, in Xianyang, Shaanxi Province, there were three brothers Mao Shi, the eldest brother, the second brother Mao Gu and the third brother Mao Zhong, who saw through the world of mortals and wrote a sigh that "willow green only looks at spring, chrysanthemum yellow looks at autumn wind, splendor always dreams in the middle of the night, and wealth is still like frost in September", so they found a mountain temple. They came to the coast of the Yellow Sea day and night, took Dai Yue's plane and enjoyed a happy meal. They saw a high mountain, towering into the shadows, and fragrant grass and lemongrass everywhere, so they lived in seclusion, cultivated themselves, collected medicine and made an alchemy to save the world. After a long time, the Mao Shi brothers finally achieved a positive result, and they became immortals. Therefore, later generations built Sanmao Taoist Temple, which is called Sanmao Zhenren and Sanmao Mountain. There is an endless stream of people coming to the mountains to learn Taoism and seek medical treatment. At that time, the plague was prevalent in Jurong area in the south of the Yangtze River. It is said that there are three real people in Maoshan, Jiangbei, who are superb in humanitarianism and medical skills and can cure all diseases, so they come to seek medical treatment. Three real people happily went to Qushan Huayang Cave. After real-life treatment, hundreds of people were cured. After the death of Sanmao Zhenjun, people were grateful, built temples and mountains, and worshipped idols. Since then, Ququ Mountain has been renamed Nanmaoshan, and Sanmaoshan in Jiangbei has been renamed Beimaoshan, or Maoshan for short. There is a shrine in front of Sanmao Taoist Temple in Maoshan Mountain, which is dedicated to Sanmao Zhenjun and presided over by Taoist priests. Incense is burning all year round. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, there were many wars and few scholars, and the Taoist temple in Maoshan declined day by day. In the fourth year of Jingdezhen in northern Song Zhenzong (A.D. 1007), Zen master Dejing, the founder of the mountain, hanged a pot here to save the world and changed the temple into a temple. With the title of emperor as "Jingde Temple" and Zen master Dejing as abbot, the ruined temple was restored, and the statue of San Mao Zhen Jun was moved to the top of the mountain, and the Hall of Great Heroes was built in the center of the mountain. The following year, construction was carried out, and Buddhist temples, Buddhist temples and temples were built. At that time, Maoshan was full of citronella, which was fragrant and also called Xiangshan. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, wars were frequent, and the Ursa Major Hall, which had been in disrepair for a long time, once collapsed. In the 23rd year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1390), Zen Master Deju came to the abbot of the temple to rebuild the Hall of Great Heroes and sculpt three giant buddhas and eighteen buddhas. In the fifth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1407), the immortal teachings of Buddhist masters were granted to travel all over the world and pass through Maoshan, so it was renamed "Jingdezhen Zhihua Temple". After years of delay, the temple collapsed, so it fell into the middle earth and changed to "the ancient Jingde Temple in Beimaoshan". In the third year of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty (A.D. 1724), the Zen master of Du Yuan in Yangzhou came to the abbot of the temple on the orders of the famous Buddhist teacher Mu Chen, trying his best to restore the temple's capacity, promote the holy religion and open the Dojo. In the 23rd year of Qianlong (A.D. 1758), the master of the study followed the abbot of Jisheng and vowed to build this temple alone. After seven or eight years of hard work, the lotus has taken on a new look, the Buddha statue is solemn and solemn, and the temple has taken on a new look. In the 28th year of Guangxu (A.D. 1902), Sanmao Zhenjun Hall was destroyed by fire, and the abbot of Zhou urged it to be heightened and slightly repaired. After Tongzhi, Lang Yue became a monk and advocated Huayan Sect in Maoshan, and Jingde Temple became the ancestral home and Buddhist holy land of Huayan Zhongxing in modern times. In the second year of Xuantong (A.D. 19 10), Sanmentou Temple was destroyed by fire again. The abbot Maeda urged donations everywhere, and the believers donated money and materials to build the original four Tantou temples into six pagodas with three semicircular gates on the left, middle and right, and the words "Ancient Jingde Temple" and stone carvings were embedded in the main entrance. In the 11th year of the Republic of China (A.D. 1922), Master Mihai, a famous monk, served as the abbot of the mountain temple, presided over the temple affairs, guided Buddhism, expounded Buddhism, set up a Buddhist college, and collected a large number of Buddhist classics and three treasures from other places. There is a Zen hostel in the temple to receive ten monks, which opens the door for learning and spreading Buddhism. For a time, Buddhism flourished in Maoshan area, and a large number of Buddhist talents stood out. For example, Mihai Fatu Weifang was the abbot of Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang, Dalin Temple in Lushan Mountain in Jiangxi Province, and Jade Buddha Temple in Shanghai. After liberation, he served as the vice president of the National Buddhist Association. Master Ci Zhou has successively served as abbot of Jinshan in Zhenjiang, abbot of Baohua Mountain in Jurong and president of Zhenjiang Buddhist Association. Master Dayun, a disciple of Mihai, was the deputy secretary-general of Jiangsu Buddhist Association and a teacher of qixia temple Buddhist College. Mihai disciple You Cheng is the abbot of Guangfu Temple in Changshu and Lingyin Temple in Hangzhou. Zong Wei, disciple of Mihaifa, abbot of Guangxiao Temple in Taizhou. Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan has become a Buddhist holy place in the east of Jianghuai. Although Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan has experienced a long and complicated process of ups and downs, its glory in history will never be diluted and submerged by the misty rain of the years. After the continuous repair of Dade monks, Jingdezhen Temple has gradually become an ancient temple jungle with beautiful scenery and extraordinary momentum. The overall architecture of the temple follows the mountain trend, and the layout is rigorous and orderly. There are five entrances at the front and rear, ten compartments at the left and right, and 205 rooms are located on the central axis, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and the second increase is consistent and symmetrical. Shanmentou Temple is the only way to enter the temple. Located in Shanqian Street, there are three red painted round doors. On both sides of the door stood a pair of white and white stone lions. The stone forehead of the ancient Jingde Temple is placed above the door, and there is a statue of Wei Tuobao, the protector, in the temple. On both sides of the temple, there are kings who control the country in the east, kings who grow in the south, kings who attract wide attention in the west and kings who are well-known in the north. Daxiong Hall belongs to the core of the whole temple, and its scale is the most magnificent. It has a glass roof, cornices and corners, carved beams and painted buildings, resplendent and magnificent. There are Lotus Pagoda, Buddha Sakyamuni sitting in meditation and Manjusri Bodhisattva in the temple, and they are also called Hua Yan San Sheng. The giant Buddha is covered with gold and glittering with gold. Eighteen worshippers on both sides have different shapes and are lifelike. Behind the altar, there is an island. Master Guanyin holds a clean bottle and pours water to help all beings. The whole island is like a huge three-dimensional picture scroll, with snow-capped mountains, swift rivers and turbulent seas. Through the Hall of the Great Hero, there are Buddhist Scriptures Building and the abbot's room. The Tibetan Scripture Building is full of the Shurangama Sutra of the Song Dynasty, with exquisite carving, solemn Buddha statue and clear handwriting, which can be called three wonders. Sanmao Zhenjun Hall, built on the top of the mountain, is the last hall on the central axis. The three true gentlemen sit side by side, with a pleasant countenance, peace and good luck. Outside the main entrance of the mountain temple, there are Yingshan Bridge and Yingshan Gable, which are also on the central axis. In addition, there are Wu Temple, Kannonji, Sanguantang, Jietai Temple, Seven Saints, Galand, the God of Wealth, Lingguan, Zen Hall, Dizang, and the East-West Annex, all built on the mountain, one after another, which are magnificent. From the front of the mountain, the temple can't see the mountain, so it is called "Bos Mountain". From the back of the mountain, you can see the mountain but not the temple, which is called "Shanbao Temple". During the conference, pilgrims gathered in the north and south of the Yangtze River, cigarettes filled the air, Buddha flags fluttered, and the Sanskrit sound was earth-shattering. The fragrant boat under the mountain is like an ant, and it is parked for ten miles. Since the Qing Dynasty, Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan, Jin, Jiao and Jurong in Zhenjiang have been called the four famous Buddhist mountains in Jiangsu. Maoshan Jingde Zen Temple is not only famous overseas for its magnificent temples, solemn Buddha statues and numerous eminent monks, but also for its rich cultural heritage. Many scholars and modern patriots in China have left footprints and Mo Bao in Maoshan Ancient Temple. Fu Bi, the prime minister and university student of the Northern Song Dynasty, studied in the ancient temple. The colonnade link is "Fu Bi with humanity and Penglai with mountains and rivers", and the reading room is inscribed as "Reading Room". Later generations changed the reading room to "Five Immortals Temple" in memory of people who often visited the Temple, such as Fan Zhongyan, Teng, Hu Yuan and Zhou Mengyang. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, another literary celebrity came to Maoshan, that is, Han Ju, a poet of Xijiang School in the Song Dynasty. After visiting Taizhou, he went to Maoshan. After seeing the "Five Immortals Temple" and "Reading Hall", he didn't want to leave, so he stayed in the reading room in Fu Bi and studied hard, leaving a poem: two poems on the wall of Reading Hall (1), rattan bed, tile, pillow, breeze and boring article. After the hometown letter has not dispersed the frost, the geese are afraid of coming late. Jiuliu has been in operation for three years, and there should not be thousands of people living in exile. There are still poems hanging on the wall, so who will be his portrait this year? (2) The sea and air are weak and Feng Xiao, so we should offer a cup of help to the patients at an appropriate time. It's strange that children who have been locked up for three years have been idle for generations. If you get an orange, you should plant it by hand, and you should ask Qing Li Mo for a letter. I will feel comfortable laughing at myself and thank you for your kindness. Xu Gaizhi, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, also wrote poems crossing Maoshan Town (see Li Men, the Capital of Yizhi). If you want to cultivate the leopard industry in Yuan Dynasty, what else can you ask for? Qingganlong traveled south of the Yangtze River traveling incognito, passing through Maoshan Mountain, and abandoned the boat to climb the mountain. He wrote a poem in the Tibetan Scripture Building: Dengmaoshan Tibetan Scripture Building hurried to the sky at sunset, and saw the green hills in the moonlight stream. Qionglou Yuyu God Wonderland, Penglai on land is waiting for me to climb. (Note: Provided by abbot Zizhou of Jinshan Temple in Zhenjiang. In the Qing Dynasty, the censor and editor Ren wrote the inscription of crossing Maoshan for Maoshan. Imperial academy, the editor of Qing Dynasty, who temporarily avoided Maoshan Ancient Temple because he failed to participate in the reform of Kang and Liang Dynasties, also wrote many couplets for Maoshan Ancient Temple. During Guangxu period, Yuan wrote Maoshan Record in Maoshan. In 26 years of the Republic of China, Sun Guangyu wrote an essay on "Visiting the Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan". During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Maoshan became the gathering place of various anti-Japanese generals. Maoshan is located at the junction of Taizhou, Xinghua and Dongtai, and has become an anti-Japanese base behind enemy lines. Chen Yi, commander of the New Fourth Army, Chen Taiyun, commander of the theater, commander of guerrilla warfare in the Shandong-Jiangsu-Anhui border region, and Huang Yifeng, commander of the United Anti-Japanese Army, all visited Maoshan during the period of 1940- 1944, and set their headquarters in the ancient temple. In fact, they paid tribute to the Huangpu generals Chen Zhongzhu and Li who died for their country. In addition, Han, the former chairman and acting governor of Jiangsu provincial government, went to Maoshan after the battle of Huangqiao, met with the general in the Tibetan Scripture Building, and wrote a poem to show his patriotism: go to the Tibetan Scripture Building in Maoshan to leave his hometown and avoid climbing the mountain building, so that the enemy can worry about disaster. Jiang Chuizi cried silently on the bank of the river, and Huai Hai swallowed him up. The anti-Japanese alliance is a model, parting ways and digging its own mountain. Roommate is quick against the enemy, and Zhaoyang intends to call him back. These are just bits and pieces of the rich cultural heritage of Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan. It can be seen that Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan is not only a famous ancient temple, but also an amazing and dazzling artistic treasure. Brilliance is still a treasure, just the past, just history. Over the past two thousand years, Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan has gone through ups and downs and has gone through a bumpy and tortuous mileage. However, it was during the war and the ten-year catastrophe that the destruction was devastating. The first time was in the months of 1944 and 10. In order to prevent the enemy and puppet troops from guarding the temples, more than 90 temples, such as Sanmao Zhenjun Temple, Qi Temple, God of Wealth Temple, Temple, East Wing, Tianwang Temple, Zhenshan Land Hall and Reading Room, were demolished. The second time was in April, 1948. In order to liberate the whole country, the ancient ginkgo trees and Gleditsia sinensis trees, which had grown in the temple for thousands of years, were removed to repair gun butts. Among them, the ancient tree named "Ginkgo Old Man" was engraved with Buddha statues, and the people were not spared. The third time was in the autumn of 1955. Sanguandian and Wu Miao were changed to Maoshan Rice Factory. The fourth time was 1958, when Yingshan Bridge and Yingshan Wall were demolished, a stream in front of Pingshan was built, and Maoshan Street and commercial building were built. The fifth time was in the summer of 1965. The first hall of Shanmen was demolished to rebuild the Maoshan grain and oil retail department, the second hall of Guandi was demolished to rebuild the rice mill, and the Yingrui Hall was demolished to rebuild the grain depot. The sixth time was in the autumn of 1968. County Grain Bureau demolished Daxiongtang to expand the rice mill, and the words "Four years of sea surveillance in Wanli, Ming Dynasty" were engraved on the demolished Zhongliang. Part of the removed wood was sent to Xinghua Grain Bureau, part of it was used to expand the rice mill, and part of it was moved away by the rebels. This kind of destruction, more than any time in history, completely destroyed the Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan, razed the priceless cultural relics with a history of nearly 2,000 years, and left the once brilliant and proud Maoshan and temples gone. Since then, this famous temple with a long history only exists in people's memory and only in dusty historical materials. The people of Maoshan are extremely sorry, sorry and sad. When history entered the late 1970s, China ended the "Ten-year Catastrophe". The spring breeze of reform and opening up has spread all over the country, and the motherland is thriving and full of vitality. With the implementation of the party's religious policy, the reconstruction of Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan has been put on the agenda. Mr. Hou Zhaoming, chairman of Guangzhou Asia International Hotel, is from Maoshan. For the economic development of his hometown, he came up with the idea of saving ancient cultural relics and re-emphasizing ancient temples, conforming to public opinion and being in harmony with nature. After careful consideration and repeated textual research, I finally made a grand wish: at all costs, I will take the lead in restoring the Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan. In the past few years, he flew back to his hometown from Guangzhou many times to discuss the reconstruction with the leaders of the city and town and win the support of the government. He also worked tirelessly to travel around, discussing specific reconstruction issues with eminent monks and living buddhas in Taiwan Province, Hongkong, Macau, Guangdong, Tibet, Shanghai, Changzhou, Yangzhou and Zhenjiang, and sometimes inviting them to visit Maoshan. All expenses will be borne by Mr. Hou. He promised to take the lead in donating money to build a Buddhist sutra building, a reclining Buddha hall and an abbot's room as the start-up project for rebuilding the ancient temple. Several party secretaries expressed their support and offered help. The leaders of Maoshan Town put forward suggestions and made preparations for the reconstruction work. Members of the Maoshan Dragon Club actively cooperated with the organization to demolish houses, make room and level the ground. The great monk in Song Chun took reconstruction as his own responsibility and put forward many valuable reconstruction suggestions. He is going to give the national treasure reclining Buddha presented by Myanmar to Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan. Worth mentioning are Mao,,,, Li,,,, Wang Hengsheng, Han, Liu Youhua, Xu Rongshan, Lu Weihua, Tang Zhenghai, Lu Shudong and so on. During the reconstruction of Jingdezhen Temple, a lot of historical materials about Jingdezhen Temple were collected and sorted out, and the book Maoshan Ancient Town was compiled. It is this grand occasion and the strong support of active participants from all sides that the preparatory work for the reconstruction of Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan can be carried out in an orderly and intensive manner, and the foundation laying ceremony of Buddhist scripture building, reclining Buddha hall and abbot room can be held as scheduled on April 6, 2008, and the historical dust of this famous temple can be brushed away and the light of day can be seen again. The restoration and reconstruction of Jingdezhen Temple in Maoshan is of great significance and far-reaching influence, which is beneficial to the present, the future and the future. Maoshan has a temple because of Sanmao and a town because of the temple. Throughout the ages, temples and towns have coexisted and reflected each other. Like Jingdezhen Temple, the ancient town of Maoshan has experienced many vicissitudes and a long history. The industrious and intelligent people of Maoshan have created many brilliant miracles by constantly striving for self-improvement. Every year in Tomb-Sweeping Day, the Maoshan Boat Festival is held, and thousands of boats compete on the river, with crowds on both sides, splashing waves and loud shouts. Maoshan chant, in particular, is sweet and melodious and more distinctive. 1953, Maoshan trumpeter sang songs and went to North Korea to express condolences to the volunteers. 1954, Maoshan Amateur Troupe, represented by folk singer Zhu Xianglin, participated in the Sino-German folk song and dance evening held in Shanghai and won the silver medal. 1956, Zhu Xianglin went to Zhongnanhai to sing "Ode to Mao Shan", which was praised by Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou and other central leaders and took a group photo as a souvenir. In 2003, CCTV Heart-to-Heart Art Troupe came to Xinghua to perform, and Maoshan chant was famous throughout the country as a labor chant with local characteristics. In the summer of 2007, CCTV's Happy China Tour came to Taizhou to perform. Jay Chou, a famous singer from Taiwan Province Province, and three female singers from Maoshan sang Maoshan's song on the same stage, which caused a sensation among the audience. As a result, Maoshan Haozi is listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage for protection. Maoshan Temple Fair has a long history, a large scale and a wide range of activities, which is second to none in central Jiangsu. Tracing back to the historical origin, Mao Ying's birthday is on March 18th of the lunar calendar every year, and Mao Ying is the prototype of Dongyue God before the Ming Dynasty, so the Maoshan Temple Fair has a long history. "Temple Fair", "Meeting Boat" and "Zichan" can be called "three wonders", which originated from Jingde Temple, and can be described as "one wonder" by using "three wonders". The ancient Maoshan Temple in history really promoted the cultural and economic prosperity of Maoshan area. However, with the gradual disappearance of Jingde Temple, Maoshan Town has lost its former glory and its reputation is not as good as before. Today's Maoshan Town is just an ordinary township in Xinghua. Compared with other towns, it is not much ahead, but there is a clear gap compared with Dainan and Zhang Guo. Although there are temple fairs and boat fairs every year, the cultural connotation has not been fully displayed and the economic benefits have not been fully exerted. What shall we do? Savvy Maoshan people seize the opportunity of "rebuilding the ancient temple", catch up with the fashion of "building a stage with culture and singing opera economically", play this card well, and expand their popularity, so that "rebuilding the ancient temple" will become a new breakthrough for the ancient town of Maoshan to regain its glory and create brilliant achievements, and Jingdezhen Zen Temple will be like "Maoshan Boat Festival", "Maoshan Temple Fair" and "Maoshan Haozi" Maoshan people are consciously accepting the radiation from Dai Nan, integrating into the economic development circle of Dai Nan, speeding up the pace, building small towns and new countryside, and becoming rich and well-off. It is conceivable that with the gradual reconstruction of Jingde Temple, the status and reputation of Maoshan will be greatly improved, the pace of urban construction and new rural construction will be greatly accelerated, and the tertiary industries such as tourism and catering services will be further developed. The reconstruction of Jingde Zen Temple will highlight the status of Buddhist holy land and expand its humanistic connotation. By then, Maoshan will not only receive the economic radiation from Dai Nan, but also radiate to Dai Nan and its surrounding areas from the cultural perspective, forming a two-way interaction, complementary advantages and mutual benefit. It is not a dream for Maoshan to go out of Xinghua, Jiangsu, the whole country and the world. After the completion of Jingde Zen Temple, the "famous temple effect" is immeasurable, and a brand-new Maoshan will surely stand in the land of Central Jiangsu. The significance of the restoration and reconstruction of Jingde Temple is not only economic, but also limited to today. Zen is as deep as the sea and Buddha is as big as the sky. In the past, Jingde Zen Temple, with its vast expanse and infinite scenery, made Maoshan one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in Jiangsu. As a Buddhist temple, it not only cultivated a batch of eminent monks and Buddhist talents, but also educated the people and purified people's hearts. And the heart is good, all evil is not done, and all good is done, then the family is prosperous and the people are prosperous. Therefore, the reconstruction of Jingde Temple and the restoration of Buddhist sites have a far-reaching impact on purifying people's souls, building a harmonious society and promoting the construction of three civilizations. At the same time, Jingdezhen Zen Temple, as an artistic treasure, is one of the elements of China's art treasure house. Chinese culture is the enduring spiritual strength and motivation of the Chinese nation. Rebuilding Jingde Temple to make this artistic treasure glow again is undoubtedly a new contribution of Maoshan people to China culture and the Chinese nation. However, the reconstruction project of the ancient temple is huge and costly, which is by no means easy, and it will take a long time or even several generations to complete. The basic idea is overall planning and step-by-step implementation. Overall planning, strive to restore the original appearance, see the mountain in front of the mountain, and the temple is in the middle of the mountain; Looking at the mountain behind the mountain, the temple is a mountain bag. Shanmentou Hall, Tianwang Hall, Ursa Major Hall, Tibetan Scripture Hall and Sanmao Zhenjun Hall are all on the same central axis. One hall is taller than the other, and the rooms on both sides of the five halls embrace each other, which fully shows the magnificent features of towers, halls and pavilions built on the mountain. In view of the fact that the mountain has been cut manually and washed away by rain, it is necessary to dig and fill the basement manually. The renderings of the temple and the whole temple have been designed (see photo). Step by step implementation. After intense preparation, the first step is to lay the foundation stone and start the ceremony of building Buddhist scripture building, lying Buddha hall and abbot room. The time is scheduled for April 6, 2008. According to the funding situation, the second step will be to build the Hall of Great Heroes and the Hall of Shanmentou. The third step is to build the Temple of the King of Heaven and Sanmao Zhenjun Hall, and strive to build the ancient temple in a relatively short time. The source of funds is mainly social assistance, and large-scale apportionment is not allowed. All funds should be managed in a unified way, earmarked and used well. Here, we must adhere to the firm belief that the people build temples and build temples for the people. We sincerely hope that great monks at home and abroad, entrepreneurs from Dai Nan, Zhang Guo, Xinghua, Taizhou and other places, people of insight from all walks of life, men who believe in women and religious believers will lend you a helping hand and give generously. How much is not limited, the more the better. If you plant a millet in spring, you will reap 10,000 seeds in autumn. Give money, plant Futian widely, and have boundless merits. Donated money to build a temple, became attached to Buddha, and made great contributions. The abbot, abbot and famous monk of Jingde Temple will thank you for your good health, long life, prosperous career, rich financial resources, happy family and all the best. As the seat of the ancient temple, the people of Maoshan are duty-bound to make Qixin Qi Xin work together and go all out. This is a great event, a glory, an opportunity and a blessing for Maoshan. Whether laying the foundation stone, starting construction or the future process, Maoshan will attract great attention from the society and welcome guests, pilgrims and tourists from all directions. As the host, we should do a good job in every reception, show the world the good humanistic quality, moral standards and spiritual outlook of Maoshan people, and be honest, sincere, down-to-earth and equally meritorious. Due to its large scale, high specifications and narrow geographical environment, the grand ceremony on April 6 is difficult to satisfy everyone's desire to enter the venue. Therefore, from the perspective of safety, Maoshan people, as hosts, should be courteous to distinguished guests, take the overall situation into consideration, pay attention to civilization, be humble and treat others, and observe discipline. Admission is not crowded and noisy. Those who don't enter the venue don't watch or make noise, so as to ensure the smooth holding of the ceremony and give all the guests a good atmosphere. China is in its heyday, and the ancient temples are reopened. Despite the difficulties, the people of Maoshan have the determination and confidence to restore and rebuild the Jingde Temple at any cost and at any time. In the near future, this ancient and magnificent temple with a long history will surely reappear in the world and shine for generations! On April 10, 2009, the opening ceremony of the reclining Buddha was held in Maoshan Town, xinghua city, Taizhou. The abbots of Tianning Temple in Changzhou, daming temple Temple in Yangzhou and Guyanbao Temple in Xinghua opened the door for the reclining Buddha. The reclining Buddha is made of Burmese jade, which is 6.2 meters long and weighs about six tons. Presented by Song Chun, abbot of Tianning Temple. 2. Yishan Temple (located in Qiaoshan Town, Hengyang County, Hunan Province) was the place where Huan Yi studied, practiced martial arts and lived in seclusion in his later years in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It was named after a Zen master in the Jin, Tai and Yuan Dynasties. Song Zongwei gave "Jingde Temple".
