Architecture

Haiyin temple, one of the three most famous Buddhist temples in South Korea, is located at the end of hongliudong Valley in Shanchuan county at the south foot of gyeongshang South Road. It is said that Haiyin temple was sealed by an ancient prime minister with the seal of the dragon king he brought back when he visited the Dragon Palace, so it is called Haiyin temple. In fact, Haiyin temple was first built in 802 A.D. in the period of Silla, and was founded by two masters, adaptation and Lizhen. Later, due to repeated fires, most of the pillars and stone towers were burned down except for the LongQian pillar. During the reconstruction in the last years of Li Dynasty, there are more than 40 magnificent and exquisite ancient buildings, such as yizhumen, fenghuangmen, jiejieta, jiuguanglou, Hades hall, dajiguang hall, magic weapon hall and Sutra Pavilion. The walls of the temple are painted with custom paintings of the Li Dynasty, as well as more than 30 cultural relics such as stone pagodas, jade lanterns and incense burners.

Haiyin temple, also known as Niutoushan, is located in JIAYE mountain, Shanchuan County, South gyeongshang Road, South Korea. It was founded in 802 A.D. to carry forward the Huayan sect by master Cong Hun and Li Zhen, disciples of the eminent monk Yixiang in the Silla period. The specific location can be checked offline at lailaihui. The fundamental classic of Huayan sect is Huayan Sutra. In Hua Yan Jing, there is the name of "Hai Yin samadhi". Haiyin samadhi is also called haiyinding, Haiyin samadhi and Haiyin Samadhi. This samadhi is the general rule of Huayan Sutra. Before the Buddha's saying, we must first understand the Dharma, and examine the root cause. For example, when we talk about fahua, we can enter into samadhi of limitless righteousness; when we talk about Prajna, we can enter samadhi of holding king; when we talk about nirvana, we can't enter Samadhi. Among the seven eight meetings of Huayan Sutra, each meeting has its own characteristics, that is, the first meeting enters into the samadhi of the Tathagata, and even the eighth meeting enters into the samadhi of Shizi. Haiyin samadhi is the general decision of the seven places and eight clubs. The seal of the sea is a metaphor for setting up a name. That is to say, when the sea wind stops the waves and the still water is clear, all the things in the sky will be printed on the sea. It is a metaphor for the Buddha's heart. He knows that the waves are not born, and is clear and clear. When it is clear and quiet, all the things will be printed for a while, and all the dharmas of the three generations will be known. The great Sutra of Huayan is said according to all the things printed in the book. This is the name of Haiyin temple.

Haiyin Temple

Haiyin temple was founded in the 3rd year of aizhuang king in Silla (802 A.D.). It is said that on his deathbed, master Baozhi of the Liang Dynasty told his disciples in "a tale of stepping on mountains" that "after my death, there were two Koryo monks who came to seek Dharma, so they recorded and paid for it." After that, Guoyou and Lizhen came to China to seek Dharma. Zhigong's disciples paid it in the book of stepping on the mountain and said the words of Zen master Zhigong on his deathbed. After listening to them, he asked the master where he was buried, and went to find out that there were ancient and modern people, but there was no law before and after. He entered the tomb seven days and seven nights to ask for the Dharma. He felt that the door of the tomb had been opened and Zhigong had gone out in person. He passed it on in a bowl, and he also gave mang shoes (the bowl and shoes have been handed down as Temple Treasures). He also asked, "there is a place where Buddhism flourishes in Niutou Shanxi, your country. If you return to the state, you can establish the dagha blue sea seal temple. " The end of the word is the end of the word. When the second division returned to the state, they went to Niutou mountain and crossed the mountains from the northeast to the West. They met hunters and asked, "because of hunting, you have read all over this mountain. Is there a place suitable for building temples?" "The hunter replied," there is a water berth (where today's Pilu temple is), and there are many iron tiles (that is, the iron tiles covered on today's Pilu house). It's better to look at it. " When the second division arrived at the water park, they found it very pleasant and sat down on grass. After entering the final stage, the top door is full of light and purple air. At that time, King aizhuang, the 39th king of Silla, suffered from back sores and failed to seek treatment. The king was very worried. He sent envoys to various places in the hope of being rescued by different monks. The emissary saw Ziqi on the road and suspected that there was a strange person in the place. At the foot of the mountain, the hazelnut is put into the cave, and the stream is deep and the gorge is narrow. After wandering for a long time, I suddenly saw a fox edge rock leaving. The envoys then arrived, and saw that the second division was settled. When the light came out of the dingmen, they worshiped and worshipped, because they were invited to go to the palace. The second division did not allow the middle envoy to sue the queen for back sores. The teacher gave five colored lines and said, "what's in front of the palace?" Answer: "there are pear trees." The teacher said, "if you hold this thread, one end is tied to the pear tree, and the other end is connected to the sore, then there is no danger." The envoys also reported to the king, and the king tried it according to his words. King aizhuang was deeply respected, so he asked the Chinese to help the second division to establish the temple, and gave the field 2500 knots. Later, the king sent people to the Tang Dynasty to invite back the Tripitaka and built pavilions for resettlement.

Collection

Tripitaka Edition

The reason why Haiyin temple is famous in the world is that there is a world-class cultural heritage, the Koryo Sutra edition, which came out in the 13th century. There are 81258 pieces of Dazangjing, known as "80000 Dazangjing". The total number of words is about 52 million. It is said that there is no mistake or omission. It is neat and exquisite, and has high artistic value and literature value. Among the existing Tripitaka, this one has the longest history and the most perfect content. This sutra was engraved in the 23rd to 38th year of Gaozong (1236-1251 A.D.), which lasted for 15 years. There were 1251 Sutras in 6791 volumes. Each Sutra plate was 69.5 cm wide and 23.9 cm long, with 22 lines in each plate and 14 characters in each line. Thousands of characters carved on the flat and glossy layout are all carved in Ouyang Xun style. More than 80000 Scripture plates are made by one person. Its superb woodblock printing technology occupies an important position in the history of world cultural publishing. Dazang is the general name of Buddhist classics. It is a collection of scriptures, laws and theories. It is a valuable document for the study of Buddhism in the world. The 80000 Tibetan scriptures are the oldest, most abundant and universally recognized standard Tibetan scriptures and Buddhist books. Japan's new sutra was based on this, and China also re introduced it back to China. Dazangjing was once collected in chuandeng Temple of Jianghua island in the period of the Korean Dynasty, and was transported to Haiyin temple in the seventh year of Taizu of the Li Dynasty (1398 A.D.), and has been preserved to this day. The library for storing the Tripitaka version was built in 1488. It has never suffered war and fire since it was built. It is the only building in the world to keep the Tripitaka.

80000 Tripitaka

The first carved Tripitaka carved in the period of emperor Xianzong (1009-1031) of Korea was re carved after being burned by the invasion of the Mongolian army, so it is also called re carved Tripitaka. After the first carving of the Tripitaka was burned, in 1232, in order to use the Buddhist power to invade Mongolia, the Emperor Gaozong moved his capital to Jianghua island. From the perspective of the state, he set up the supervision institution of the Tripitaka capital and began to carve the Tripitaka version again. At first, the Tripitaka version was carved in Nanhai, Qingshang Nandao, and then moved to the Tripitaka version Hall of Jianghua island for safekeeping. However, due to the frequent invasion of Japanese pirates in the late Koryo Dynasty, the Tripitaka version was moved to the present Haiyin temple in the period of emperor Taizu (1398). This version of the Tripitaka is corrected by monk Tong Shou of Kaitai temple, comparing with the official version of the Northern Song Dynasty, Khitan version and the early carved Tripitaka of South Korea.

According to Li Kui Bao's "prayer for the king and Minister of the Tripitaka engraving plate", when the Khitan army invaded in the second year of Xianzong (1011), the carved Tripitaka reported that the Khitan army had retreated, praying that it would be re carved due to the burning of the Tripitaka engraving plate due to the invasion of Mongolia, so as to fight back the invasion of Mongolia with Buddhist power. From 1237 to 1248, it took 12 years to carve the Tripitaka edition. If we add the preparation period, it took 16 years to complete.

The 80000 Tibetan scriptures refer to the number of more than 80000 editions of the Tibetan scriptures, which also comes from the Buddhist generalization of the number that can't be expressed, just as it is usually said that there are 84000 dharmas in Buddhism or 84000 troubles in all living beings.
