Fahua learning Temple

Fahua learning Temple

Fahua learning temple was founded in 2000. Since the opening of the mountain, when the Municipal Administration of Pudong is booming and the World Expo is unfolding, the temple has changed its address many times. After several twists and turns, Linpu Jiadi was set up around 2004, adjacent to the entrance of Shangzhong Road Tunnel in central, so the overall planning and design were carried out according to local conditions. Over the past six years, on the basis of keeping the overall blueprint unchanged, fahua Xuexue temple has revised and supplemented many details. With the joint efforts of zisu, the front yard has been built on a brilliant scale and opened to the public in May 2010 as one of the reception places of Shanghai Buddhist World Expo. Today, jintangxiong is located in the square, reflecting the shade of central. Its style is harmonious but different.

Architecture

Fahua Xuexue Temple faces south in the north, adjacent to Huangpu River in the west, and its main entrance is located in the East. It can reach the front yard through the simple wooden fence gate. In the layout of the front yard, the main unit is the Buddha Hall, the Golden Hall of the new Tang style. The roof is in the form of a veranda, with a broad curved surface. The settlement is a broad cornice, which slightly covers the solid foundation, and the corresponding is a wide eaves gallery. The silver gray pottery tiles reflect the light of the sky. They are the gold tiles of the Sanskrit symbol of the knowledge Temple of fahua, and they are silent to the sky. On the long granite foundation of Southern Fujian is a five bay wooden structure.

Compared with traditional temple architecture, the characteristics of the FA Hua Xue temple are simultaneous interpreting the characteristics of the times and the ecological environment. The tall building body, wide eaves and flat roof are designed in accordance with the proportion of Tang style buildings, presenting a majestic momentum as a whole. The whole hall is made of high-class engineering wood from Canada, and is processed by overseas professional technology. In the structure, modern technology is used to obtain large indoor space without columns. At the same time, the complicated decoration part of traditional architecture is abandoned in detail treatment, which makes the architecture return to nature and simplicity: the traditional bucket arch is replaced by laminated square wood to support the broad eaves, the hyperbolic vault is used in the interior, and the electric light is not used for lighting, and the doors and windows are simplified as floor glass and solid wood sliding doors. The floor to ceiling windows at the four corners of the building are made of dark blue tempered coated glass, which not only blocks the external vision, but also enables the interior to obtain more natural light. Through the glass and sliding door, the pool and grass in the environment are introduced into the interior, so that the interior and exterior spaces are integrated, low-carbon and environmentally friendly. The surface of the wooden structure of the building is painted with clear water mahogany color paint, showing the wood grain texture, showing the simplicity and simplicity. In this way, from the material to the color, it continues not only the modern fashion, but also the classical wooden tradition.

Before the Jintang is an open stone square with curved corridors on the left and right. The front runs through the river and the mountain gate is across the river, which together constitute the central space of the front yard. Finally, a shallow bamboo fence around the temple melts the limited temple into the surrounding continuous central green belt. At the same time, the secluded environment sets off the width of the front courtyard center. The square can store water as a pool, symbolizing the boundless sea of bitterness. On the middle axis is a broad road, which starts from Maitreya Buddha on the river bank and goes through the sea of bitterness to Jintang. A plaque is hanging on the gate, which reads "zhengbianzhi". "Zhengbianzhi" and "Daxiong" are both listed on the tenth of Buddha's list, which is a little strange and makes people think deeply. In this kind of experience, hearing and awareness, it sets off the firmness and solemnity of Jintang and highlights the supreme merits of Buddha.

Obviously, the layout of the front yard of fahua Xuexue temple is a new Tang style, which is more integrated with the aesthetic orientation of today's architectural art. As the name of the temple indicates, it expresses the blend of tradition and modernity, which makes people not only see what their original intention and long cherished wish is.

function

Since its founding, fahua Xuexue temple has made clear its own development purpose, that is, to build a pure Taoist temple with architectural layout as the first, traditional culture as the body, learning and practicing principles as the foundation, and protecting the country as the goal, to inherit the fine tradition of Chinese Buddhism from three aspects of material etiquette, institutional ethics, and spiritual justice, and to establish a new "urban mountain forest" Buddhist cultural landscape for the contemporary era It has been ten years.

This decade also coincides with the successful bidding and the successful conclusion of the Shanghai World Expo. In October 2009, the temple was confirmed as the reception place for the World Expo. The temple regards it as an opportunity to learn and grow up to firm its purpose and sharpen its moral style. It actively connects with all parties, makes orderly preparations and opens as scheduled, and receives visits from monks and customs in various ways: it receives monks and customs in the form of tea parties, exchanges on traditional culture, Buddhist historical knowledge and learning ways; it plans activities in the form of ritual music performance To show the purpose and advantages of the temple, carry forward the traditional material and non-material culture; to learn and cultivate for the purpose, except for the first, the fifteenth incense period, do not receive tourists.

After the official opening to the outside world during the Expo period, the temple is exploring how to adhere to its purpose and better serve the modern social, economic, political, cultural and ecological construction. The society has its own positioning for monasteries, either as a scenic spot of tourism economy, or as a place to experience traditional cultural heritage, or as a public place to build a community, or as a learning place to improve life education. These positioning are reasonable. It is also an opportunity for fahua learning temple to realize its purpose.

In terms of material etiquette and customs, the inheritance of modern garden architecture, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, medicine and tea ceremony, incense club and calligraphy has declined or even disappeared. With the revival of traditional Chinese culture, especially relying on the economic and cultural foundation of Jiangnan region, fahua Xuexue temple is expected to become a base for the transmission of traditional elegant cultural heritage.

In terms of ethical system, Buddhism, especially Tiantai Sect, has the tradition of protecting the country, believing that Buddhism, the state and individuals can be connected and integrated. Therefore, fahua Zhixue temple will take protecting the country as its characteristic, pay attention to the development of patriotism, participate in social charity, especially cultural public welfare, on the one hand, and also pay attention to the construction of natural ecology, so as to become a public cultural service place of the society.

In the aspect of religious justification, the temple insists on starting from the study of Buddhist history and common sense to carry out overall justification speculation and outline, so as to prevent being partial to a corner and fragmented. At the same time, on this basis, it emphasizes the adherence to the traditional commandments, so as to make the temple become a pure Taoist Center for the improvement of life.

This is the functional orientation of fahua learning temple in building a socialist harmonious society, which has been quietly implemented in serving the World Expo.

Future prospects

Adhering to the long cherished wish of yuanjiao and the function of remembering harmony, architectural construction leads the way, and the fundamental implementation is the cultivation of monks: only by building temples and establishing monks can we achieve a complete sense of Daoism.

According to the latest planning and design, the Temple group is located in the central green belt, surrounded by Huangpu River water and isolated from the outside. Within the group, there are three routes, nine hospitals. The middle road is the axis of Buddha worship. From the south to the north, the main units of the axis are Shanmen, Jintang, Liuli hall, Dabei hall, Fatang and sengliao. The land use has been implemented. The east road is the cultural axis, and the west road is the life axis. The two roads will build "harmony" (Museum of cultural relics and Art) and "peace" (Memorial Hall of historical eminent monks) twin towers respectively. The land is being applied for.

During this period, the public's original intention was not to retreat, and they became more and more loyal to Daoism. They were blessed by the Buddhist power and the prosperity of the land. They also relied on the protection of Ciyun and the common cultivation of Futian. During the past ten years, there were both the guidance of great virtue and benevolence from the educational circles and the compassionate support of ten good faith. Master Daxi also entertained himself in painting and calligraphy, and raised money for several charity sales. Jintang has been initially completed, the interior design is in progress, and the front yard has begun to take shape. The glazed hall will be built soon.

The building construction is very long, and the cultivation of monks has a long way to go, because the two treasures of Buddhism are passed on by Lai Seng Hong. Master Daxi, the abbot, has been attaching great importance to the cultivation of young monks for many years, and has provided financial support and guidance. Several of them are studying Buddhism overseas and studying doctoral programs in universities. Once the construction project is completed, they will come back to live in the temple to study and promote Buddhism. In addition to becoming a monk, the Buddhist dharma needs to be protected by the monks at home. In this regard, fahua Xuexue temple will combine its own functional orientation, and strive to rely on the traditional culture research statement, Yin Ming, Yi Fang Ming, Gong Qiao Ming and Nei Ming, so as to cultivate the external protection environment of monks' talent and learning.

In essence, Daochang is set up to cultivate the common pursuit of Taoism by both monks and customs, so the construction of Daochang itself depends on the common mental karma of both monks and customs. From this point of view, the architectural layout is only one aspect of the construction of the Taoist temple. What is more important is the cultivation of the monks and the common people in the construction process. It is the condensation of mental karma, the deep desire to endure and enjoy the real virtues and abilities - the four truths, the three treasures and the fruits of karma. Pure heart is faith, and the establishment of good knowledge and confidence.

The whole Buddhism is a great Fukuda. And the final appearance depends on the common karma and good fortune of all living beings. It is expected that more sentient beings can accumulate wealth of happiness and wisdom, improve their lives, initiate extraordinary Bodhi Heart, and successfully achieve humanity and Buddhism.

In the spring of 2000, with the support of the government, Fahong built the fahua learning temple, a Buddhist temple in Fanyu. At first, the elder Xu Da agreed to the real estate of Tanbu, the former site of Jiangjing temple, a Buddhist Taoist temple in Ming Dynasty, as the foundation for the construction of the temple. However, it was not successful. Later, after several moves, there was no appeal for the location of dahihe.

Thanks to the help of the government, the former site of Huangdaopo ancestral hall, which was abandoned in Linpu village of Sanlin Town, was used as the site for the opening of the mountain
