Introduction:

According to the classic records of Yong Zhong's Benjiao, benri mountain is the holy mountain of zuoque benzun. There are three peaks in one mountain range of this mountain, namely murizaika, larijiangtuo and Xinri Dedan. Among them, murizaija is the god mountain of the Buddha, which is today's god mountain. The ancients said, "it's like the holy mountain of spearhead.".

Rarijiangtuoshan is not only the place where the first generation of Zanpu niechizanpu came down to earth, but also the place where muchizanpu and other successor Zanpu people repaired secrets. Fortunately, Rao Miwo, the Tathagata Buddha, once spent a night in Sinri Dedan mountain when he entered Tibet. The next day, he buried the big Buddha's conch, the small Buddha's conch and the iron armor here, and vowed that this place would become the place of Dharma.

According to the records of "Tibet Wang Tong Ji", "Duo Dui" and other ancient books and records, Xiangxiong people xinraomiwo Buddha made many changes to the original religion in the past, and created Yongzhong Buddhism, which is known as the oldest ancient Xiangxiong Buddhism in Tibet. Patriarch xinrao Miwo first created Xiangxiong characters and taught "five Ming disciplines": gongqiaoming (Technology), Shenglun (Linguistics), medicine, waiming (Astronomy) and Neiming (Buddhism). The ancient Chinese Xiangxiong civilization developed with the spread of "Yongzhong based religion" as the main line.

According to Chinese and Tibetan classics, the ancient state of Xiangxiong (in fact, the tribal alliance) was known as qiangtong and Yangtong, which reached their peak before the 7th century. According to the article a brief history of Tibetan population, the population of Xiangxiong should not be less than 10 million according to the proportion of the army. Later, Tubo gradually rose in the Tibetan Plateau, and in the 8th century, it completely conquered the ancient country of Xiangxiong. After that, Xiangxiong culture gradually disappeared. The literature of ancient religion in Tibet is called "Xiangxiong code" by experts. According to the records of the lineage of Tubo kings, from niechizanpu to longjietuozan, all the twenty-six dynasties used this religion to protect the state affairs At that time, the ancient Xiangxiong characters were mainly used for the writing of the Scriptures.

Luan Jianzhang, deputy director of the Research Office of the Ministry of foreign relations of the CPC Central Committee, once wrote an article on the historical significance of Xiangxiong civilization and our religion: "it is no exaggeration to say that to understand Tibetan civilization, we must first understand Xiangxiong civilization; to study Tibetan Buddhism, we must first study our religion. Otherwise, the deeper the inquiry, the farther away it may be from the truth. "

In the 7th century, Songzanganbu merged and unified various tribes in Tibet, established a powerful Tubo Dynasty, and began to write the official history of Tibet. In recent years, archaeological discoveries have proved that the ancient Xiangxiong civilization is the real root of Tibetan civilization.

Today, there are five monasteries, namely central sangwa yangzuo, Oriental Dalong cave, North Luocha cave, xixiade cave and South Taiyang cave. Today's temples include Shenmu temple, dazayong Zhonglin temple, Weipu temple, Dazhuo temple, Jiari temple, Zongqiang temple, gengbadang temple, Yonggeng temple, Guxiu temple, senmotaza temple, Jieju bangri temple, larijiangtuo temple, Dalong practice place, today's Buddhist College, etc. There are also countless magical phenomena such as footprints, fingerprints and natural shapes left on the rocks by the great witnesses.

About 6 kilometers away from Linzhi County in Tibet, there is a famous mountain in Tibet, which is benri mountain. On the hillside of today's mountain, there is a yongzhongben temple, called sekagengchin temple, which has a history of more than 1200 years. It is one of the oldest temples in the religion. Every year on April 30 of the Tibetan calendar, the temple has a traditional festival, the Tibetan Eagle worship Festival.

It is said that the sekaganqin temple was built around 757 ad, when there was an endless stream of monks and laymen who came to worship. But by 1330, it had lost its former scene of prosperous incense. Not only did the believers come less, but even the lamas and monks in the temple left the temple for many reasons. The whole temple is desolate and lifeless. In order to seek the true scriptures of various sects, a local Lama named duozengrebazhuse (the ninth rooting living Buddha) visited all the local monasteries and sects in Tibet and planned to write the scriptures of the local religion. At the age of 13, he began to study this religion and collected and wrote the scriptures of this religion. This year, he passed by the sekagengchin temple, saw this desolate scene, and thought that his religion would be annihilated. He was determined to save the temple, establish rules and regulations, and carry forward the knowledge of teaching here, so as to restore the glory of the temple in the past. He told the monks in the temple what he thought, and they all agreed. Soon all the activities were carried out in an orderly manner

.

The idea of living Buddha has not been fully realized, and a serious illness has taken the Pearl life of duozengeriba. On his deathbed, he called all the monks in the temple to the sickbed and said, "after my death, the affairs of the temple will be done according to my idea, and I will not be reincarnated any more. One year later, I will become 100 eagles and come back to see you and the temple, and I will come back every year." It's April 30 in the Tibetan calendar.

On April 30 of the Tibetan calendar the following year, 100 Eagles came from the east of benri mountain (the north side of sekagengqin Temple). After flying around the temple for three times, he flew to the southwest of the temple. Year after year, year after year. People are nostalgic for and grateful for duozeng RI bazhuse, and set April 30 in Tibetan calendar as a memorial day. On this day, the villagers, men and women, old and young, all wear festival costumes and come to the temple from all directions to dance the joyful "cheba (Gongbu)" dance. People also hold arena competitions to welcome the arrival of Baiying, pray for a bumper harvest of grain and prosperity of people and animals, and finally tell Baiying about the temple. After that, all of them make three turns around the temple. It is said that if the weather is fine on this day, the faithful believers of our church can see the flying eagles.

Time flies, I do not know when to start, people worship the eagle as God, and set the Tibetan calendar April 30 as the Tibetan Eagle worship Festival.

The mountain has vast forests, beautiful scenery, fine customs, blessed water, beautiful feathered birds and all kinds of animals. In addition, there are all kinds of trees and the top hair of the empty line mother. For example, Dala cypress, the king of the world cypress, which represents the black and white dice of gods and demons, and Liushen cypress also grow here. This is the source of the Yarlung Zangbo River, Niyang River and many other famous rivers. The local customs and geographical environment are still the same today, which is quite different from other Tibetan areas.

Up to now, the local people who believe in yongzhongben religion still have big stone worship, bird worship and TIANTI (a huge tree standing on the holy mountain, because it is often surrounded by fog, seems to rise to the sky, which is the universal tree in yongzhongben religion legend. The premature children are buried in the box between the branches of the tree, thinking that this can make the soul ascend to heaven) On the tree, which is regarded as the ladder of heaven, there are all kinds of prayer flags and sacrifices.

Every year during the saga Dawa Festival, the believers of our religion turn around the holy mountain anticlockwise. Ah Qiong Jiebo is regarded as the hero of protecting the holy mountain.

Today's famous Shenshan (benri Shenshan) is listed as "county-level cultural and ecological experimental protection zone" by Linzhi county government, and will be declared as "regional cultural and ecological experimental protection zone". It indicates that the famous holy mountain of the religion has been paid more and more attention by the state and the government, and it will receive strong support in environmental and ecological protection, cultural tradition protection and development.

Stories and legends

According to the historical records of our religion, when the Buddha lived in Tubo, the most powerful state was gongjiegabo, the king of Gongbo. Today, the holy mountain of Gongbo was under the jurisdiction of the state. At that time, seven horses of the Xin family were stolen to Gongbo by Chaba, the demon king, and hidden in Gongbo palace. On the one hand, Xin Rao Buddha came to Tibet in order to enlighten all living beings and promote the Dharma, on the other hand, he came to the place in order to find the horse. At the beginning, the king of Gongbo did not respect the Buddha and fought against him with the army. With his true compassion and Bodhisattva heart, the Buddha transformed the king of Gongbo and his family members, and let all hatred melt into the mind of nature. In order to eliminate his sins, King Gongbo confessed in front of the Buddha seat and became the first disciple of the Buddha. Wang presented his daughter to the Buddha, who gave birth to a son named gongchawangdan. Therefore, it is said that Chaba is beneficial to Tibetans.

The reason why Shenshan is attractive today is that there is a story. It is said that when master lianhuasheng arrived at the intersection of Yajiang River and Niyang River, he mobilized the strong wind to sweep away the villages and trees along the river. Ah Qiong Jiebo was in a hurry and pressed the trees with huge stones. Now the treetops in this area are all crooked, which is the result of this fight. Then they fought in the village of Gulu (meaning lianhuasheng) at the foot of today's holy mountain. Lianhuasheng failed to destroy today's holy mountain and block Niyang River with the mountain. Today, there are some legendary relics on the holy mountain, such as the worship of big stone, the worship of divine bird, the ladder of heaven and the holy water.
