Huafoshan

Huafoshan

Moudinghua Foshan, only 20 kilometers away from qianliangqiao Road, is one of the famous mountains in Central Yunnan. Baiyunwo temple was built in the fifth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1577), and 13 temples were built in the late Qing Dynasty. At its peak, there were hundreds of monks. It is a historical Buddhist resort. Human landscape and natural landscape resources are rich. In 1993, it was listed as a provincial scenic spot.

The scenic area is composed of huafoshan, Qingfeng reservoir and tuanjieba orchard, covering an area of about 30 square kilometers.

legend

The original name of huafoshan is unknown. It is said that in the early Ming Dynasty, the leader of the peasant uprising in Yaozhou retreated to Dingyuan county (the ancient name of Mouding County) after a long defeat, and set up a camp here, which is called Zijiu village. After the failure of Zijiu uprising, Zijiu village evolved from the name of military camp to the name of mountain, which was once called along the border. As for the name of "Hua fo", there is also a legend related to Buddhism.

In the middle of Ming Dynasty, Buddhism prevailed in Central Yunnan. In the villages and towns of Dingyuan County, Buddhist believers were on the way, and there were some monks and residents who were successful in learning Buddhism. Liangguan village, juntun township of Mouding County, was just an ordinary small mountain village at that time. However, because of the birth of a famous Buddhist monk without residence, it was known by the world and recorded in history. Wuzhu, a Buddhist monk with a common surname of Deng and a name of Hongru, is also called Xugu. He traveled from his hometown to Zijiu village and lived in Xikai mountain of Baiyun Wo to build Baiyun Wo temple. It is said that the word "white cloud" is derived from the fact that wuzhu Zen master sincerely practiced Buddhism in this remote and cold mountain, and finally realized the "good fruit" of Zen Buddhism. It is said that because wuzhu Zen master devoted himself to Buddhism, the Buddha showed his spirit specially. In that moment, he saw a piece of white cloud floating slowly, in which the ancient Buddha came, came leisurely and died quietly. From then on, wuzhu Chan Master was full of red face, full of spirit, and more devoutly participated in Buddhism. In order to verify his kung fu and Buddha's special kindness to him, he fasted and bathed, and planted a Camellia in Wulongtan, Baiyun wo. The way to verify it is to insert the camellia regulations and recite it silently at the edge of the tree: "vow to prove the success of my way by the withered glory of Camellia. "Before long, a miracle happened. Wuzhu inverted Camellia has luxuriant foliage and colorful flowers. Thus, a new variety of Camellia in huafoshan area was bred. The flower has nine pistils and eighteen petals. It is shaped like a lion's head, with bright colors and rich plumpness. The story of Camellia upside down has aroused people's strong interest. Many good men and women have come to pay homage to it. After watching it, they all praise and praise Zen master's practice. After all, the flesh and blood of human beings can't be compared with nature. The camellia, which is widely praised for its ability to prove Buddhism, still blooms. Since then, people have forgotten the actual existence of the leader of the peasant uprising for a long time, but they are deeply attached to the "Buddha" which has been "confirmed" but is still illusory, so zijiuzhai has been evolved into "huafoshan".

Beautiful scenery and religious culture complement each other, gradually making Foshan a scenic spot in Central Yunnan. The legend of Magic also spread among the people. It is said that before wuzhu Chan Master built Baiyun Wo Chan temple, there was a gurgling spring running along the mountain, which brought inconvenience to people's life. When wuzhu saw that this place was related to Buddha's nature, he blocked the mountain spring with his magic power and let the spring flow to the mountain behind Baiyun wo. It is commonly known as "big outflow" or "rolling pool". Until now, the ground in front of the Buddha seat in the main hall is often wet, which shows that this is the old site of the mountain spring exit. In front of wangsi village at the foot of huafo mountain, there is a cave about Zhang high, nearly one Zhang wide and unpredictable in depth. It is said that there are three fork holes in the cave. The left fork leads to Nanhua, the right fork leads to Guangtong, and the middle fork is endless. Every year when the rainy season comes, the floods from nearby roads flow into zhongchakou, and only flow in but not out. The wind in the cave is tight and the Yin Qi is pressing. There are groups of bats living here, so the local farmers call it "bat cave". On the top of huafo mountain, there is a small flat land. When people and animals pass by, they can sing. It's like stepping on the surface of a drum, so it's called "drum land". It's said that a monk became a Buddha here, and the earth became aura.

It has attracted a lot of literati to praise impromptu and left many well-known poems. As Wang Tianxi of the Qing Dynasty wrote when he visited Foshan: "take wine to relax and turn Buddha's forehead, sit alone and listen to the flowing spring. Drunk to remember no living words, night knock on the Mountain Gate learning Zen. "The mood of floating out of the world is integrated with the natural environment of huafoshan, which is leisurely and independent from the rest of the world.
