Brief introduction to temples

Nanshan Temple is located in the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Area of Sanya. Nanshan Temple is located in the south foot of Nanshan Mountain, 40 kilometers west of Sanya City, covering an area of 400 mu. Nanshan is more than 500 meters high, and it is surrounded by clouds all year round. Nanshan Temple has a very good geographical location, surrounded by hills on the left and right, facing thousands of hectares of blue waves in the South China Sea.

Nearby is the famous Sanya Nanshan sea Guanyin.

The Huayan Sutra, entering the Dharma world, says: "there is a mountain named Bu taloka in the south, and there is a Bodhisattva's view of freedom.". The Bodhisattva had a wish to live in the South China Sea for a long time. It was called Nanhai Guanyin. Because Bodhisattvas live in the gate of great compassion and walk freely and conveniently, they are common before all living beings, and even mature when they live with them. Therefore, Guanyin Daochang is widely spread in all places, especially in Putuo Mountain in eastern Zhejiang, and Gai Bodhisattva lives in the South China Sea and should be transformed into shifangye. China's Nanshan is on the coast of Hainan, Sanya's Nanshan is the bulataluojia where Bodhisattvas live for a long time, and Daguangming mountain is also. Therefore, there has always been a saying that Guanyin visited the South China Sea in Qiongzhou. The two islands of Dongmao and XiMao on the side of Nanshan are said to be the remains of Guanyin's earth picking. Lotus is the form of samadhi of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Its seed character is Heli, which shows that all dharmas are pure and pure in nature. It is also like the heart of human flesh. It is like the eight leaf lotus, and its essence is pure and pure. According to Yazhou annals, "in 1881, yazitang Village (southeast foot of Nanshan Mountain) in Sanya suddenly produced lotus flowers with luxuriant leaves, which were withered in three years. In the 23rd year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu, it resumed production. The more serious it was, the more prosperous it has been. It can be seen from this that the reason why Nanshan and Buddhism are so different is the same. Later, master Jianzhen's sixth trip to Japan was successful, so he praised Nanshan as an auspicious place.

on a large scale

Nanshan is located in the south of Qiongzhou. It is more than 500 meters high and looks like a giant Ao. It was called Aoshan in ancient times. It is actually the phase of Guanyin Bodhisattva's Cihang Pudu mount. The mountains are meandering and emerald, surrounded by hills, and surrounded by auspicious clouds. Facing the South China Sea, there are thousands of blue waves, thousands of clear lights, waves exciting the sound of stones, and water reflecting the sky. There is a Buddha Kingdom on the sea and heaven, and Bodhisattvas are taking pictures of all living beings. In view of the requirements of the majority of believers, the favorable time, place and people, and the mature timing, the people's Government of Hainan Province officially approved the construction of Nanshan Temple in 1993 (2537 Buddhist calendar) with the proposal of Mr. Ruan Chongwu and the consent of the Religious Affairs Bureau of the State Council of China and the China Buddhist Association, and successively approved the construction of Nanshan Buddhist culture garden beside the temple. There is a huge bronze statue of Guanyin with a height of 108 meters in the sea in front of the temple. The mountain is adjacent to the ends of the earth on the left and Dadonghai on the right, which is a great tragedy mandala of "great ecology, great culture and great environmental protection". There has always been a saying in Qiongzhou that Guanyin travels in the South China Sea. It is said that it is the remains of the ancient ancestors of Guanyin. During the reign of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty, Jianzhen, the founder of Luzong, had five times to go eastward to Japan. He landed in Nanshan to promote Buddhism and was protected by Guanyin Bodhisattva. His sixth eastward journey was successful. Later, Japan sent the Buddhist master of Tang Monk dongmi to seek Dharma from the West. He was also hindered by the typhoon to Nanshan and was blessed by Guanyin. He went to Chang'an via Quanzhou to seek Dharma.

Sanya Nanshan scenic spot is located in the south of Qiongzhou. The mountain is more than 500 meters high and looks like a giant Ao. It also looks like the mount of Guanyin Bodhisattva's Cihang Pudu. The mountains are meandering and green, the hills are surrounded by auspicious clouds, and the South China Sea is surrounded by waves and rocks, and the water shines on the sky. It is a sea sky Buddha. In 1993, on the initiative of Mr. Ruan Chongwu, with the consent of the Religious Bureau of the State Council of China and the Buddhist Association of China, the Hainan provincial government officially approved the construction of Nanshan Temple, and successively approved the construction of Nanshan Buddhist culture garden on the side of the temple, so as to build a 108 meter high giant bronze statue of Guanyin in the sea in front of the temple. Adjacent to the mountain, the Tianyahaijiao tourist area is on the left, and the Dongtian tourist area is on the right, which covers the great tragedy mandala of "great ecology, great culture and great environmental protection".

Reconstruction period

The foundation of Nanshan Temple was laid in November 1995. The builders overcame many difficulties with great perseverance and wisdom. It took two and a half years. Jintang, Douli inner courtyard and renwangmen achieved great success. Zhao Puchu, President of China Buddhist Association, wrote "Nanshan Temple" and "sea sky jungle" in his own handwriting. It coincides with the 2000 year anniversary of the introduction of Buddhism into China in 1998. During the southern tour of Guanyin, the Buddha was killed in Yunnan Province. Therefore, on April 12, a grand ceremony of praying for the Buddha was held. He wrote in the stele: "those who plan, those who build, those who give, and those who receive, are all liberated. When they learn that they have entered the sea of great sorrow, they have boundless merits, and all return.

Nanshan Temple is a new modern Buddhist temple integrating Buddhist culture, architecture and garden, sightseeing and recreation. It is a large temple in the style of ancient Tang Dynasty.

Relying on the Bodhisattva's blessing, the universal support, the schemer, the builder, the giver, and the receiver, all of them are liberated. They know that they are in the sea of great compassion, and have boundless merits, and all of them return. The stele is dedicated to the construction of a temple in Nanshan and the promotion of great compassion. It is the same body, people are the same, comfortable and unimpeded, soothing people's heart and buds, deep Prajna, no quilt, Dharma, and daily glory of Buddha.
