Is there a legend that Xishan in Kunming is a holy place for parting?

There is a saying in Kunming that if male and female friends climb the western hills together, the final result will be to break up and go to the blog at the end of the wind: although this statement has not been published in any media, it is well-known among the people. Until recently, some netizens posted on Cailong. Com for verification, attracting numerous replies.

As a result, the wind ended beyond its own ability, and this legend was verified.

The ups and downs of the western hills look like a beautiful woman lying on her back on the bank of Dianchi Lake in Kunming.

In ancient times, some people called it Sleeping Buddha, and the poet Guo Moruo wrote Sleeping Buddha in the Clouds.

But more people think that Xishan is a "sleeping beauty" and even called it "Beauty Mountain".

Such a beautiful mountain range naturally produces all kinds of folklore.

Among all kinds of legends about the Western Hills, the legends surrounding love account for the majority.

No matter whether the heroines in these love legends are princesses, village girls or peasant women, they all end up separated from their lovers, and tears flow into Dianchi Lake for 500 miles, and people finally fall down and become sleeping beauty-Xishan.

In fact, in the past, due to the long-term rule of feudal society, the free love between men and women was always blocked by various means, and people were full of beautiful yearning for it.

Goddess peak in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and "Wang Mi Shi" all over the country are pinning this ideal.

However, these legends of love tragedies make people sigh and feel disappointed.

Just like the poem written by Deng Tuo in those days: "Sleeping Buddha incarnates as a sleeping beauty, full of blood and red dust.

The sea dries up and the rocks rot.

Therefore, for lovers, these legends of Xishan unconsciously play the role of "psychological suggestion" in people's minds, and think that Xishan means "lovers break up".

Moreover, standing on the western hill overlooking Dianchi Lake, the wind under your arm is ethereal, which makes people feel detached from the world of mortals.

This is also the original intention of many temples to choose Xishan for thousands of years.

In Buddhist legends, the West symbolizes the Elysium, and the West Mountain is located in the west of Kunming. With such scenery, it is naturally a natural treasure to promote Buddhism.

Regrettably, for a long time, there was a certain misunderstanding about Buddhism, thinking that Buddhism would make people see through the world of mortals and abandon their feelings.

Even because of the words such as "driving a crane westward" in folk spoken language, there are certain taboos on "westward".

For example, when old Kunming people play mahjong, it is considered unlucky that four people can't play "West" at the same time.

None of the above understandings are correct. One of the moral standards that Buddhists abide by is to make Buddhism benefit all beings, have feelings for people and make people happy.

In a wedding photography shop in Kunming, there is a contemporary Kunming monk who wrote four characters "Forever and ever" for the newlyweds, wishing them happiness.

The orientation of the west, here, is originally a direction with beautiful yearning, and these derived taboos are too unfounded.

If we study the history of Kunming carefully, you will find that the Western Hills really have something to do with love. For example, the folk custom of "hitting the Western Hills on March 3rd" spread in Kunming since ancient times is the March 3rd in Du Fu's poem "Er Cheng".

In the pre-Qin period in China, this day has become a large-scale folk festival.

On this day, everyone bathed in incense, and men and women went to the river to sing and find someone. There are lyrics of love songs at that time in The Book of Songs.

But in the Central Plains of China.

The festival gradually disappeared later.

At the end of the wind, I personally think this is related to the rise of feudal ethics in the Central Plains.

The Kunming folk song "Da Shan Diao", which has been handed down to this day, is the proof that young men and women who are rarely influenced by feudal ethics met and fell in love with folk songs on the western hills.

On the Xishan Mountain in Kunming, there is another unknown symbol of love, that is, on the Xishan Mountain, the former site of key cultural relics protection units in Yunnan Province-"Taihuafeng Meteorological Station" Yide Meteorological Station.

This meteorological station was built by China and Yunnan meteorological pioneer Chen Yide (1886- 1958).

As a pioneer, Chen Yide's road is naturally blue.

However, in the process of his struggle, he was always cared for by his wife Liu.

Liu was the first coolie and Chen Yide's assistant.

The glorious portrayal of this love is a "star map" drawn by Chen Yide after observing the celestial phenomena in Kunming, embroidered by his wife Liu.

Up to now, this loving science textbook and historical relics are still collected in Yunnan Provincial Library.

The burial tomb of Chen Yide and his wife is also near the "one-to-one weather station", which makes future generations deeply feel their perfect love.

It is precisely because of these that this beautiful mountain, Xishan, is full of pursuit and praise for love.

The saying that "lovers will break up when they arrive in Xishan" is an unfounded superstition in contemporary times. At the end of the wind, it is better to say that it is a reflection of modern people's accelerated emotional changes in modern society.

When we are faced with the love legends since ancient times and a series of facts in Xishan, I am afraid we should compare and think about our attitude towards love.

Perhaps, this is the real consciousness of Xishan on the issue of love!
