The origin of Luohan mountain

Luohanshan is a large-scale cultural tourism and leisure area founded and funded by Mr. Lin Zhiliang, a famous calligrapher, senior academician of China Buddhist painting and Calligraphy Academy, a well-known entrepreneur and collector from Xiamen (Yifan Jushi), in 2009. It is a charitable measure that Mr. Lin Zhiliang calls on successful people from all walks of life to thank and repay the society.

Under the leadership of Mr. Lin, we welcome 500 Arhats standing on the top of the mountain, which is named Luohan mountain. From Wuming mountain to today's pure land. Each arhat is solemn and respectable. It is like the world coming down to earth, gathering together in the world, which is very spectacular. It is also like the fairyland of Foshan, far away from the world, without the slightest noise of the world.

On this mountain, Lin Zhiliang devoted all his efforts. He said that the significance is not as simple as the temple building generally believed, it reflects the rich traditional culture of the country. He should not only spread Buddhist culture, but also embody the connotation of calligraphy one by one on the stones and columns in the mountains. What is moving is that the construction of this mountain has also changed the economic outlook of Lianhua town. "Three years ago, when I came here, many villagers still have candles in their homes and no lights." Lin Zhiliang said. Now, the construction project of a mountain, with 20000 or 30000 tourists at home and abroad every day, has solved the employment of villagers, improved the difficult situation, and promoted the economic development of the surrounding areas.

During the construction of Luohanshan, more than 10 listed companies and Chinese businessmen from the United States, Canada and other countries have come to Luohanshan to pledge to support the development of Luohanshan.

The founder of Luohan mountain

Luohanshan is a large-scale cultural tourism and leisure area initiated and funded by Mr. Lin Zhiliang, a famous Chinese calligrapher, senior academician of China Buddhist painting and Calligraphy Academy, a well-known entrepreneur and collector from Xiamen, in 2009. It is a charitable initiative that Mr. Lin calls on successful people from all walks of life to thank the society and repay the society. The scenic spot is free of tickets. At that time, 500 Southeast Asian eminent monks, 500 Buddhist Music Choir and 500 calligraphers will attend the ceremony.

Lin Zhiliang studied calligraphy and martial arts when he was young. In his early years, he ran a foreign trade enterprise and established a good reputation and prestige in business and trade. In 2005, at the joint invitation of Taiwan's Chinese century calligraphy and Painting Association and other units, he was the first mainland calligrapher to hold a 14 day personal calligraphy art exhibition in Taipei, Baodao. Celebrities from all walks of life in Taiwan went to congratulate him. More than 200 flower baskets were presented by the chairman of the three parties of the Kuomintang, the people first party and the new party and the "legislators" of the blue green camp. Dozens of authoritative media in Taiwan have followed up and reported the whole process, which is known as "opening a window for more than 50 years of closed calligraphy exchanges between the two sides of the Strait.".

Since then, Lin Zhiliang has become the object of public attention. His calligraphy works have been highly sought after in Southeast Asia and the collection circles on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. The auction price has been rising all the way. However, Mr. Lin always donates the proceeds from the auction as charity money. Lin Zhiliang's three masterpieces won a total of 134000 yuan at the Haixi Shexiang Yipai meeting, and all the money was donated to Zhouqu, Gansu Province, which was hit by the debris flow.

Lin Zhiliang's strong humanistic care for society has also affected many industry elites. In 2009, Lin Zhiliang invested in the construction of Luohanshan mountain, and all 500 Luohanshan were confessed in just 10 months. Among them, there are more than 10 listed companies and Chinese businessmen from the United States, Canada, Australia and other places. They support Lin Zhiliang and the development of Luohanshan business.

reason

According to Lin Zhiliang, he chose Lianhua Mountain in Tong'an for construction for three reasons: first, Lianhua Mountain is the only National Forest Park in Xiamen, occupying 1 / 4 of the green area of the whole city. There are rare ancient trees, exotic grasses, birds and animals in the mountains. The mountains are abrupt and majestic, and the lake, mountain and hot springs set off each other with beautiful scenery. And since the introduction of Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty, Zen culture has been developing here, leaving many historical sites, such as a large number of stone inscriptions of Zhu Xi, as well as religious temples, traditional Buddhist festivals, calligraphy and rich Zen heritage. The integration of natural landscape and cultural landscape has laid a strong cultural foundation for the development of cultural tourism resources in Luohan mountain. Second, Lianhua Mountain is an uncultivated virgin land. Before he came here, many villagers around him still lit candles. The construction of a mountain can solve the employment of villagers, improve the local poverty situation, promote the protection and utilization of Lianhua National Forest Park, and boost the construction of the back garden of the special zone, which is of great significance. Third, Lin Zhiliang is from Tong'an, Xiamen. With the growth of his experience, the more he gets from society, the more he wants to repay his hometown. According to Lin Zhiliang, the Luohanshan cultural tourism and leisure area will include Zen Buddhist culture base, "1 + 1" calligraphy creation base, Lin Zhiliang Art Museum, one village one product chain supermarket and other projects.

Lin Zhiliang has been associated with Buddhism for more than 20 years, and is a devout Buddhist. In 2005, he was certified as the first disciple of the Han Dynasty by the living Buddha gamalondo. Later, master Yicheng, the president of the Buddhist Association, granted the title of "Yifan" to the Buddhist. He said that the guidance of Buddha made him more responsible for carrying forward the Dharma. Luohan mountain will become a holy land for eminent monks to pass on Buddhist scriptures and give lectures. To build Luohan mountain into the world's largest and most complete "Luohan mountain outside the scenery" with prominent Buddhist statues, he is preparing to apply for the Guinness Book of world records. Lin Zhiliang said: "the art of calligraphy is the epitome of Chinese traditional culture, and people's life is limited. Even if they do their best, they will only leave some works to the society. To make the art of calligraphy continue, we need to cultivate the next generation of successors, which is also the purpose of my" 1 + 1 "project." His plan for the calligraphy creation base is to build dozens of calligraphy studios in the mountainous area of more than 30 mu, recruit calligraphy teachers from all over the country, let one teacher lead one student, systematically study calligraphy art, and let calligraphy culture Inherit indefinitely in the long run.

Buddhism

As long as you visit Luohan mountain, you can see the cliff calligraphy inscriptions in the mountain, Shen Peng's "Epiphany", the "one true dharma world" of monk Chuanyin, the current president of China Buddhist Association, the essence of Huineng Zen master's Epiphany, "Bodhi is no tree, the mirror is not a platform, there is nothing, where can cause dust", and Lin Zhiliang's "heart follows the sound of nature". Between mountains and rivers, in heaven and earth, art and meditation depend on each other, Buddhism and calligraphy blend. Lin Zhiliang also keeps his calligraphy works and many treasures from overseas auction in his personal art museum for visitors to enjoy. In addition, Lin Zhiliang believes that tourism will bring the exchange and development of culture and commodity economy. Tongan has rich specialty resources and unique flavor. One village one product chain supermarket will promote the development of regional brand, so as to realize the growth of local people's income.

The square inch of land witnessed the gratitude feelings, and the size of the pen and ink waved to write the noble righteousness. Mr. Lin Zhiliang hopes that more enthusiasts will come to Luohanshan to practice Zen together, work together to benefit the people, inherit charity and the virtue of love of the Chinese nation.
