Lingyun Shengjing

The temples on the peak of Lingyun Mountain are still preserved, including Lingyun Temple on the peak and Lingbao Tower on Lingbao Peak. Lingyun Temple is quite large, and the giant Buddha is carved on a cliff not far from the temple. From here, you can go down to the foot of the Buddha along a steep path dug on the edge of the cliff. You can look at the Buddha statues on the railings and carefully observe the subtle differences in various parts of the giant Buddha's head. Because the giant Buddha was carved in front of Lingyun Temple, it is also called Lingyun Giant Buddha. Lingyun Temple is also called the Big Buddha Temple because of this big Buddha. There is a giant Buddha in Lingyun Mountain, and the mountain is more famous. The giant Buddha is on Lingyun Mountain, and the mountain is more colorful.

There are pavilions and pavilions such as Dongpo Memorial Hall and Jingxiu Pavilion around Lingyun Mountain. There are many Han cliff tombs on the mountain, some of which are more than ten meters deep, surrounded by exquisite sculptures, as well as pottery women and other funerary objects, which are unique historical sites in Sichuan.

On the stone wall on the right side of the giant Buddha is the famous "Jiuqu plank road", which was dug at the same time as the Buddha flash. The widest part of the plank road is 1.45m, and the narrowest part is 0.6m Move the stone steps of ***2 17 backward down the cliff and reach the foot of the Giant Buddha. Unfortunately, the stone shrine left on the cliff has been badly weathered. Bypassing the foot of the Buddha is the "Lingyun plank road" on the left side of the Buddha. Cutting the wall and piercing the hole is hidden between the cliffs on the left side of Leshan Giant Buddha. The plank road 1983 was first excavated, completed on 1984, and opened in the same year1October, with a total length of about 500 meters. Together with the Jiuqu plank road on the right side of the Giant Buddha, it forms a circuitous tourist route.

Lingyun Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty, located at the right rear of the head of the giant Buddha, commonly known as the Big Buddha Temple. In the early years of Tang Kaiyuan (AD 7 13), temples were expanded. Lingyun Temple, built in the Tang Dynasty, was destroyed by Yuan Shundi War. It was repaired twice in Ming dynasty and destroyed again in late Ming dynasty. The existing Lingyun Temple was rebuilt in the sixth year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty (AD 1667). After many repairs. On the plaque in the middle of the temple gate is the word "Lingyun Temple" inscribed by Su Dongpo. The couplets on both sides are "the river of no return, Buddhism and Taoism come from the west". This couplet not only gives people a sense of Buddhist solemnity, but also shows the geographical location of Lingyun Temple, and cleverly embeds the word "Giant Buddha" in it. There is a triple quadrangle building in the temple, which consists of the Heavenly King Hall, the Ursa Major Hall and the Tibetan Scripture Building. The sutra storage building was originally the place where Buddhist scriptures were collected in the temple, and was newly built in 1930. Modern architectural style can be seen in structure and modeling. The newly-built "Shihai Hall" downstairs is carved with full-length portraits of Haitong Mage, the founder of the Giant Buddha, and Zhang Qiu, Joan and Wei Gao, the successors, to express their admiration.

Lingbao Tower, also known as Lingyun Tower, is named after it stands on the top of Lingbao Peak behind Lingyun Temple. Built in the Tang Dynasty, the tower is a square pyramid with dense eaves and bricks. It sits east to west, with a height of 38 meters and a floor of * * * 13. The tower is hollow, and the stone steps spiral along the tower axis to the top of the tower. The top of the tower is quadrangular. Lingbao Tower has windows on every floor. According to the situation of mountains and rivers, the purpose of building this tower is mainly as a symbol of the confluence of the three rivers. The 765,438+0-meter-high Giant Buddha is designed to protect the water and safety of the town, while the Lingbao Tower is used as a navigation sign to make boatmen pay more attention to cross rapids and rapids safely. Lingbao Tower, a symbol of the ancient city of Jiazhou, was declared as a cultural relic protection unit by the Sichuan Provincial People's Government.

Dongpo Memorial Hall is one of the famous monuments in Lingyun Mountain. Dongpo Memorial Hall is also called Dongpo Reading Building. Located at the top of Qiluan Mountain, it is a quadrangle building composed of buildings, corridors and pavilions. Dongpo Memorial Hall is a two-story building with single wood. The word "Dongpo Memorial Hall" on the horizontal plaque at the door was written by Huang Tingjian, and Su Dongpo reclined in the center of the hall. There is a pavilion opposite the cliff of Dongpo Memorial Hall, namely Yin Qing Pavilion. Looking at the Yin Qing Pavilion, the river is far away and the scenery is beautiful. The Western Heaven has beautiful scenery, integrating ancient buildings, cliff statues, sculptures, murals and colorful paintings. The ancient buildings imitating the Tang Dynasty include Tianqiao, Tianmen, Ladder, Yuntai, Ladder and Three Great Halls.

Oriental Buddha Capital

1994 was completed and opened in may. It is only one mile away from Leshan Giant Buddha, which is an extension of the Buddhist culture of Leshan Giant Buddha tourist attractions and a major part of the Giant Buddha. In the area of 200,000 square meters, more than 3,000 Buddha statues at home and abroad have been copied. With the extension of the natural mountain, cliff stone carvings, reliefs, carvings, murals and other forms are adopted, and different materials are selected, including stone carvings, bronze carvings, colored sculptures, jet sculptures and other large and small Buddha statues.

Cave Tomb on Mahao River

Ma Hao Cliff Tomb is located on the east bank of the spillway between Lingyun and Una Mountains, and Ma Hao is its place name. Cliff tomb is a popular form of tomb in western Sichuan, especially in Leshan area. It is characterized by artificially chiseling sand and stones along shallow hills and valleys into square caves, and then burying the remains and martyrs. Seen from the outside, this is a mysterious cave. This kind of tomb was popular from the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties more than 1800 years ago, so it was called the Cliff Tomb of the Eastern Han Dynasty. In the early years, Ma Hao Cliff Tomb was known as the "crown of tombs in Nan 'an" for its large scale and exquisite portrait carving. The tombs of the Han Dynasty were declared as national key cultural relics protection units by the State Council in 1988.

Una Temple

In ancient times, there were mountains and piles. According to legend, Li Bing, the prefect of Shu County in Qin Dynasty, dug them for "avoiding the harm of foam water". Wu Youshan and Lingyun Mountain stand side by side on the bank of Minjiang River, surrounded by water, with isolated peaks and lush trees. Wu Youshan is also called "Five Niu Shan" because he lives alone in the river like a black cow. According to legend, Huang Tingjian, a poet in the Song Dynasty, thought his name was indecent, but when he saw the ancient trees on the mountain, he changed his name to "Wu Youshan". Wuyou Temple, which was built in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, is adjacent to Lingyun Temple. The two mountains are separated by a water and connected by a suspension bridge, forming a complete scenic spot with Lingyun Mountain. There is a worry-free temple on the mountain. The building is built on the mountain, winding, exquisite and elegant, and has a unique style. Besides Buddhist temples, there are also exquisite buildings, such as Yi Kuang Pavilion, Tingtaoxuan and Ergoya. The existing temples are all buildings after the Qing Dynasty, and they are relatively well-preserved temples in Sichuan Province.

Brief introduction of Leshan Giant Buddha

Leshan Giant Buddha, also known as Lingyun Giant Buddha, is located on the side of Lingyun Temple on the east bank of Minjiang River in Leshan, Sichuan, near the intersection of Dadu River, Qingyi River and Minjiang River. The giant Buddha is a seated statue of Maitreya, with a height of 7 1 m, which is the largest cliff stone statue in China.

Leshan Giant Buddha was excavated in the first year of Kaiyuan in Tang Dynasty (7 13) and completed in the 19th year of Zhenyuan (803), which lasted about 90 years. The Giant Buddha is composed of Leshan Giant Buddha, Lingyun Mountain, Una, reclining Buddha and other scenic spots, belonging to the national 5A-level tourist attractions. 20 18 10 8. The nine-bend plank road of the Giant Buddha has been fenced and isolated before construction.

Construction history:

Guleshan, where the three rivers meet, Minjiang River, Qingyijiang River and Dadu River meet at the foot of Lingyun Mountain. The water is quite fierce, and the boat series is often subverted. Every summer flood, the river rushes straight to the mountain wall, which often leads to the tragedy of shipwreck death. Haitong Zen master initiated it to reduce the water potential and benefit all beings, and recruited manpower and material resources to repair it.

The construction of the Buddha statue began in the early kaiyuan year of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (AD 7 13). When the Buddha reaches the shoulder, the monk Haitong dies. After Haitong's death, the project was once interrupted. Many years later, Zhang Qiu and Joan, the messengers of Jian Xichuan, donated money, and Haitong's apprentice led craftsmen to continue to build the Giant Buddha. Due to the huge project, the court ordered the payment of hemp salt tax, which made the project progress rapidly.

When the Leshan Giant Buddha was repaired to the knee, the builders Zhang Qiu and Joan moved home to be the ministers of the Ministry of Housing, and the project stopped again. Forty years later, Wei Gao, the messenger of Jianchuan, donated money to continue the construction of Leshan Giant Buddha. After the efforts of three generations of craftsmen, it was completed in 90 years in the 19th year of Zhenyuan, Tang Dezong (AD 803).

Buddha structure:

1, basic appearance

The head of Leshan Giant Buddha is flush with the mountain, stepping on the river, touching his knees with his hands, and the Buddha's posture is symmetrical and solemn, sitting on the river near the mountain. The giant Buddha is 7 1m high, 14.7m high, 10m wide,102/bun, 7m long ears, 5.6m long nose, 5.6m long eyebrows, 3.3m long mouth and eyes, 3m high neck and 23m wide shoulders.

On the cliffs along the river on the left and right sides of the giant Buddha, there are two stone carvings of the protector king, which are as high as 16 meters, and together with the giant Buddha, they form the pattern of one Buddha and two kings. There are also hundreds of Buddhist niches and thousands of stone statues of heavenly kings, which are now gathered into a huge Buddhist stone carving art group. On the left side of the giant Buddha, along the "cave sky" is the starting point of Lingyun plank road excavated in modern times, with a total length of nearly 500 meters.

On the right is the Jiuqu plank road, the building and sacrificial passage left by the excavation of the Great Buddha in the Tang Dynasty. After the Buddha statue is carved, there are seven pavilions (nine or thirteen floors), called "Giant Buddha Pavilion" and "Elephant Pavilion". The Buddha Pavilion was built and destroyed repeatedly, and the "Lingyun Pavilion" and "Tianning Pavilion" were rebuilt in the Song Dynasty. Humboldt Pavilion was built in Yuan Dynasty; The "Buddha shed" was built in the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, and the "Buddha pavilion" was built in the Qing Dynasty and was finally destroyed.

2, the stone curls

There are 105 1 buns on the top of the giant Buddha, which are counted with chalk when 1962 is in maintenance. From a distance, the bun is integrated with the head, but in fact it is embedded with stones one by one. The exposed part of the root of a single bun has obvious splicing cracks and no mortar bonding. The surface of the bun is plastered with two layers, the inner layer is lime, and the thickness of each layer is 5-15 mm. During the maintenance period of 199 1 year, three snail stones were found in the depression of the Buddha's right leg, of which two were relatively complete, 78 cm long, 3 1.5×3 1.5 cm at the top and 24×24 cm at the root.

3. Wooden ears

There is a hole about 25 cm deep inside the root of the earlobe of the right ear of the giant Buddha. Maintenance workers take out many broken objects from the hole and carefully examine the decaying wood mud. This confirms Fan Chengda's record in Wu in the Southern Song Dynasty that "the Buddha statue in the world is big, but its ears are still wooden". So there are three pieces of wood exposed inside, and the finished glyph is formed. It shows that the protruding bridge of the nose is also lined with wood and decorated with hammer ash. However, it is impossible to verify whether this was the case when Zhenyuan was completed in 19 years, and whether this technology was adopted by future generations to repair it.

4. Drainage system

Leshan Giant Buddha has a very ingenious drainage system. There is a cleverly designed and concealed drainage system behind the ear and head of Leshan Giant Buddha, which plays an important role in protecting the Buddha. So that the Buddha statue will not be eroded by rain. Wang Shizhen, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, wrote a poem about Leshan Giant Buddha, "Spring flows in a bun from ancient Buddha".

In the bun on the * * *18th floor above the head of the Giant Buddha, there is a horizontal drainage ditch on the 4th, 9th and18th floors respectively, which is decorated with hammer ash, so it can't be seen from afar. Collar and garment line also have pleated drainage ditch, and there is a left-handed disassembled face ditch in the front chest, which is connected with the back ditch of the right arm. Behind the ear, near the cliff, there is a cave with a length of 9. 15m, a width of1.25m and a height of 3.38m; There are two holes at both ends of the chest and back, which are not connected with each other. Right hole depth 16.5m, width 0.95m, height 1.35m, left hole depth 8. 1m, width 0.95m, height1.1m.

These wonderful ditches and caves constitute a scientific drainage, moisture-proof and ventilation system, which has played an important role in protecting the giant Buddha and preventing erosive weathering for thousands of years. Due to the confluence of mountain springs, calcareous compounds with a thickness of about 5- 10 cm are condensed on the inner cliff walls of the two caves, while the cliff walls on the Buddha's body side are still red sand and relatively dry.

Two caves, the walls of which are separated from each other are wet, and there is water at the bottom, and water keeps dripping out of the caves, so the chest of the giant Buddha is about 2 meters wide. Obviously, this is because the hole has not been penetrated. I wonder why the builder didn't get through.

5. Chest tablet

According to Huang and Luo Hengheng, the person in charge of 1962 maintenance, a closed hidden hole was found in the chest of the giant Buddha. When I opened the hole, I saw it was full of scrap iron, worn lead skin, bricks and so on. In fact, Fengmen Stone is a chronicle of the reconstruction of Tianning Pavilion in Song Dynasty. After the completion of the Great Buddha in the Tang Dynasty, a wooden pavilion was built to protect it from the sun and rain.

Judging from the numerous column bases and pile holes left by the knees, legs, arms, chest and instep of the giant Buddha, it is obvious that there used to be a giant Buddha pavilion here. Rebuilt in the Song Dynasty, it was called "Tianning Pavilion" and was later destroyed. But I don't know when and for what reason, the Tianning Pavilion Chronicle Monument Tang was embedded in the Buddha's chest. Maintenance personnel moved the monument to Haitong Cave for preservation, but it was destroyed in 1966.

Extended data:

Design features:

Leshan Giant Buddha has a set of cleverly designed and concealed drainage system, which plays an important role in protecting the giant Buddha. In the bun of *** 18 on the head of the giant Buddha, there is a horizontal drainage ditch on the 4th, 9th and 18 floors respectively, and there is a ditch on the right chest to the left to connect with the ditch on the back of the right arm.

Behind the ear, near the cliff, there are caves connected left and right; There is a hole at each end of the chest and back, but they don't drill through each other. These ditches and caves form a scientific drainage, moisture-proof and ventilation system to prevent the erosive weathering of the giant Buddha.

You can directly reach the bottom of the giant Buddha along the prismatic cloud plank road on the left side of the giant Buddha. Look up at the giant Buddha here and you will feel the height of the sky. There is a nine-curve ancient plank road on the right side of the statue. The plank road was dug along the right cliff of the Buddha statue, which was extremely steep and tortuous for nine times before reaching the top of the plank road.

This is the right side of the giant Buddha's head, which is the top of Lingyun Mountain. Here you can see the carving art of the giant Buddha's head. There are 105 1 hairs on the top of the giant Buddha. From a distance, the bun is integrated with the head, but in fact it is embedded with stones one by one.

There is a hole about 25 cm deep inside the root of the lobe of the right ear of the giant Buddha, and the Buddha's ear is 7 meters long. It is not made of original rock, but made of wooden columns and decorated with hammer ash. A hole was also found at the lower end of the Buddha's nose, revealing three pieces of wood and a finished glyph. It shows that the protruding bridge of the nose is also lined with wood and decorated with hammer ash.

There is a closed hidden hole in the chest of the giant Buddha. Fengmen Stone is a chronicle of the reconstruction of Tianning Pavilion in Song Dynasty. The hole is filled with scrap iron, worn lead skin, bricks, etc. It is said that after the completion of the Buddha in the Tang Dynasty, a wooden pavilion was built to protect it from the sun and rain.

From the many pillars and pile holes left on the edge, legs, arms, chest and instep of the giant Buddha, it can be clearly seen that there was once a giant Buddha pavilion. Rebuilt in the Song Dynasty, it was called "Tianning Pavilion" and was later destroyed. Defenders moved the monument to Shihai Cave for preservation, but it was destroyed during the Cultural Revolution.

Religious connotation:

Leshan Giant Buddha is Maitreya Buddha. Worship Maitreya in Tang Dynasty. Buddhist scriptures say that Maitreya will be "peaceful in the world" when he is born. During the Wu and Zhou Dynasties, Wu Zetian ordered the fabrication of the Great Cloud Sutra to prove that he was the reincarnation of Maitreya. In the feudal era when men were superior to women, people's worship of Maitreya helped her ascend to the throne.

Because of Wu Zetian's vigorous advocacy, the wind of sculpting Maitreya Buddha swept the country. The construction of Leshan Giant Buddha was only more than 20 years from the time of Wu Zetian, so when Haitong built Leshan Giant Buddha, he naturally chose Maitreya Buddha, which is a future Buddha that can bring light and happiness, which is consistent with the requirements of Zhenjiang Giant Buddha to quell floods.

Great changes have taken place in the Buddhist culture of Han Dynasty in China. The first stage is the introduction of Jiao Jiao Maitreya from India to China. The second stage is the ancient Buddha Maitreya with "China characteristics"; The third stage is Maitreya. Leshan Giant Buddha is an ancient Buddha Maitreya with "China characteristics".

According to the description in the Maitreya Sutra, Maitreya has "thirty-two phases and eighty kinds of goodness", which requires his facial features, head, hands, feet and body to be different from ordinary people. The overall shape of Leshan Giant Buddha is extraordinary. The bun on the head, broad shoulders, tall and long eyebrows and round nostrils are all "broad shoulders and thin waist" of Indian Buddha statues built in accordance with Buddhist classics. There is nothing left on the giant Buddha, only strong shoulders and full breasts, which embodies the fashion of advocating fat beauty in Tang Dynasty.

The posture of Leshan Giant Buddha is that his feet droop naturally, which is different from the "knotting" posture of Indian Buddha statues because the giant Buddha was built to save water. This steady and steady sitting posture can give boatmen the courage and determination to overcome rapids and dangerous beaches.

Maitreya Buddha Maitreya Buddha is based on the image of a monk named Qi Ben in China during the Five Dynasties. This is from Fenghua County, Zhejiang Province. He is charitable and can predict the weather and people's good and bad luck. He often begs around with a cloth bag. Before his death, he once said, "Maitreya Buddha is really Maitreya Buddha, incarnating tens of billions, which often shows the world and the world doesn't know." So everyone thinks that he is the incarnation of Maitreya, and Maitreya in the temple has also shaped his image-a cloth-bag monk with a big smile and a big belly.
