Hanxingchi

Hanxingchi

Hanxing pool is located in the west of Sanqing mountain, Jiangxi Province, which is a world natural heritage and a national key scenic spot in China. In the day after tomorrow, the eight trigrams change position, change elephant Ze, swamp. With an area of 3480 square meters and an altitude of 1530 meters, it is the largest Fengshui pool among the three Fengshui pools of Jingyi pool, Qinghua pool and Hanxing pool in the Fudi Alpine basin of Sanqing. The lake water is clear and calm, reflecting the stars and the moon like a mirror. "Han Xing Chi" is carved on the rock wall in the north of the chi. Under the dam in the west of the pool is an abyss with jagged rocks.

In June 2002, the southwest corner of the pool was opened as the intersection connecting Sanqing and Fudi at the north end of the plank road on the west coast.

Textual research on Culture

The name of "Hanxing" is mysterious and ancient, which is related to fengshui of imperial mausoleum. First of all, "Han" means tolerance and immersion. "Stars" are the luminous celestial bodies in the universe, such as stars and the moon. There is a saying in Jinshu · Yuandi Ji Lun that "stars show auspiciousness and Jinling shows celebration". Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty has a poem that "the eaves are hung with stars and the pillows ring with Feng Shui". Hanxing, as its name suggests, is a reflection of immersion and conservation of the stars and the moon. It can be seen that the naming of Hanxing pool is related to geomantic omen.

"Han" also means deep understanding. According to Zhu Zi Yu Lei Wu Xing Li Er, it is said that "whether it is in the middle or not, it is a conjecture. It should not be discussed in a hurry, and it contains swimming and playing. It should be seen for a long time.". Culvert means culvert, and pool means moat and moat. This is related to the fact that emperor Jianwen escaped from the culvert of Nanjing city. In Bai Juyi's song of everlasting regret, the emperor of the Tang and Ming Dynasties fled. There is an exclamation that "the bell and drum are late at the beginning of the night, and the stars are eager to dawn.". In connection with "Tian Bao Shi" and "Han Xing Chi Nan", there is the name "Jin Gu Shi". It seems that there are multiple hidden meanings in it, which need to be deeply understood in order to be recognized.

Hanxingchi is located in the west of the blessed land of Sanqing Dynasty. According to the theory of congenital eight trigrams, it is called Kan trigram in the West. The ridge is water, and the natural hexagram is "Moon", which is the place where the moon and stars are reflected in the sky. According to the four directions of congenital eight trigrams: left East, right West, left green dragon, right white tiger, South rosefinch and North Xuanwu, the right is the direction of white tiger in the West. Tiger is also one of the stars in Taoism. Tiger lives near the water, so "Hutou mountain" is carved on the cliff in the north of the pool to symbolize the ridge. In the west, there is a ridge for water, so a dam is built at the water entrance to store water, which means that the pool is a geomantic treasure pool for conserving and reflecting the stars.

What's the basis for saying that hanxingchi is a place to contain the stars and the moon? According to Professor He yunao, director of the Institute of cultural and natural heritage of Nanjing University, the layout of Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb in the Xiaoling Mausoleum of the Ming Dynasty in Nanjing shows the pattern of "Big Dipper seven stars". The author found that the tomb of bamboo collection in zhanbiyun, Sanqing mountain is also arranged in the pattern of "Big Dipper". Xu Yueqing of Song Dynasty: "heaven and earth contain esoteric learning, and the sun and the moon shine on solitary loyalty." This "Han Xing" should respect the ancient system of sacrificing heaven and earth, imitate the Xiaoling system, and imply the meaning of including the sky seven star schema.

Historical records

According to the records of Yunji Qiqian, there was no Sanqing blessed land in the ranking of the seventy-two blessed lands of the thirty-six caves in ancient times, that is to say, the Sanqing blessed land was not among the seventy-two. The ancients called the Sanqing blessed land "the unique blessed land in the world, the highest mountain in the south of the Yangtze River in the Han Dynasty". In other words, Sanqing blessed land is "the most blessed land in the world" above the 72 blessed land. So, what's the basis for this statement?

If we only use the orientation of the eight trigrams to observe the geomantic omen of Sanqing blessed land, the orientation of the natural geographical water mouth of Sanqing blessed land is not consistent with the best geomantic omen orientation of the eight trigrams. According to the congenital eight diagrams, the best orientation is to sit north and face south, that is, to stand facing south. In addition, there should be a mountain in the North Xuanwu, a Mingtang and Shuikou Guanlan in the South Zhuque, and two sand guards in the East and West. The natural entity of Sanqing blessed land is "sitting in the East and facing the west", that is, sitting in the East, Shuikou Guanlan in the west, and Longhu Ersha in the South and North. If we use the position of the eight trigrams to measure, Sanqing blessed land can not be called the best. However, if we observe the geomantic omen of Sanqing from the perspective of tianbagua, we will find that the mystery is obvious, and we have to be amazed and impressed by the excellent geomantic omen layout adjustment of Ming Dynasty designer Zhan Biyun. Abbot Biyun did not change the original ecology of the natural entity of Sanqing blessed land. He adjusted the layout of Sanqing blessed land to a deeper level according to the acquired eight trigrams schema. He cleverly integrated the Taoist ancient architecture with the natural entity environment, making Sanqing blessed land a lotus throne and a Fengshui pattern with stars and moon, making it a fairyland of "heaven and man in one" and an excellent place for Fengshui The supreme "unparalleled land".

According to the layout of the day after tomorrow's eight trigrams, we can find that hanxingchi is located in the west of Sanqing's blessed land, and the West belongs to dugua in the day after tomorrow's eight trigrams. For the marsh, marsh for the pool, Ze for "rain, virtue, Lu Wei" and so on. And the west is gold, and the five elements of gold generate water for gold. Building a dam and pool to gather water here is named Han Xing, which is not only in line with the principles of the hexagram, but also implies the meaning of vast boon and abundant wealth. For example, Huaqing pool in ancient Chang'an was called "Xingchen Tang" in the Western Zhou Dynasty, where you Wang once built a palace. The opposite of hanxingchi is the East, the East is Zhengua, and the earthquake is thunder. "Shuogua" in the book of changes says: "the emperor came out of shock, and Qi Hu Xun." Therefore, the dragon and tiger hall was built in the East, in which the statue of "emperor Xuanyuan" Lao Tzu was placed; therefore, the bamboo house of Zhan Biyun was built in Xun's place, on which the stone inscription "Haotian Jade Emperor God" was carved, to show that the emperor was sitting in the Jinluan hall, symbolizing the king's presence in the world and the benefaction of the East and the West.

From the view of Shuikou Guanlan, the geomantic book of Canyu introduces that if there is a beautiful mausoleum where emperors are buried, there must be Shuikou Guanlan, and the Shuikou Guanlan must have Beichen zunxing to sit in the town, towering high, which can frighten people from a distance, then it can be called "Shangge". Shuikou of Sanqing blessed land is located in the West. The overall geographical situation is high in the southeast and low in the northwest. However, it is strange that there is a high in the northwest. Hutou mountain stands just in time to build feixiantai to ascend to heaven. Zhan Biyun's tomb faces the Xunshan mountain. There are a series of mountains on the north and south sides of the tomb, which arc into the moon and close to the west to form Shuikou pass. In the south is Jiulong Mountain, with its head east and tail West circling to form a dragon body, with its head high in Longshou mountain; in the north is Hutou mountain, with its head west and tail East forming a tiger body, with its head gently lying in the north of Hanxing pool. The tiger's head and the dragon's tail, the head and tail of each other, and the water mouth separated, friendship surrounded the Sanqing blessed land, dozens of acres of high mountains and basins, surrounded by immortal gas, is actually the magical creation of nature's glaciers. Liu Bowen said on wind and water: "it's better to guard in the form of things than in the form of human beings.". Therefore, in order to prevent the white tiger from damaging the dragon, a stone was chiseled on the cliff at the foot of Hutou mountain, which is one of the four Taoist phases. The statue of Xu Xun and Xu Zhenjun, the founder of the Jingming school, was used to worship the star. The characteristic of Jingming Taoism is that it takes Laozi as its religion, and takes the cultivation of loyalty and filial piety as its foundation. It is a typical Taoist sect that advocates the confluence of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. The setting of "counting birds with one stone" not only shows the supreme authority of imperial power, but also conceals the true monarch's final possession here, and the loyal and filial ministers accompany him here. It's really superb in Taoism, which is beyond ordinary people's ability and ordinary people's ability.

The essence of Fengshui lies in the collection of wind and water. That is to say, wind should be hidden and water should be gathered before it can be called geomantic treasure land. The book of changes says: "the stars drive the weather, the mountains drive the earth's atmosphere. The weather is Yang, the earth's atmosphere is Yin, the Yin and yang are harmonious, the heaven and the earth are dense, and all things breed." Hanxing pool is vast and deep, symbolizing that it can hold the water of the Milky way in the sky, and store the water of the mountains and springs on the earth. And where the upper grid is, the wind should be hidden. The wind of Sanqing is located in the southeast. The southeast is Xun Gua, Xun Xiang is wind, wind is suitable for Tibet. "Shuogua" in the book of changes says: "the emperor came out of shock, and Qi Hu Xun." Xun and Qian stood against each other and ascended together. This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides. The Ming hall is open, and the dragon and tiger are embracing each other. The "bamboo hiding place of Zhan Biyun in the Meiji mountain" points at the lotus heart. The lotus pod is hidden deep. It is towering on the lotus throne, facing the rising platform of Feixian. It can be called the Fengshui treasure land of Longxue in juegang.

There is also the word "Tibetan bamboo" to make the finishing point. The witticism notes: "Tibetan" is strict and close, and the spirit is skillful and secluded; "bamboo" is elegant and open-minded. It's really unparalleled to call this place "the place for storing bamboo.".

From this, we can finally get a glimpse of the overall layout of sanqingfu Taoist architecture centered on Zhan Biyun's bamboo collection. In fact, it is full of the mystery of ancient Xuankong geomantic omen, the theory of yin and Yang eight diagrams and the emperor's idea of selecting mountains to build mausoleums. Its extensive and profound, not the author's superficial knowledge, can be correctly interpreted and completely solved, and it needs the guidance of experts and scholars. However, the Fengshui pattern of the moon with stars and the arch of seven stars, which is formed by the arrangement of the ancient buildings of Taoism in Sanqing and Fudi according to the congenital and postnatal directions of the eight trigrams, does exist and is supported by physical objects. Sanqing blessed land is also the place where bamboo is stored by Zhan Biyun of Meiji mountain, and the king pattern of "back against mountain, foot on water, head on sky, foot on earth" is formed around it, which not only hides wind but also gathers water. Therefore, Sanqing blessed land and Sanqing mountain are worthy of the name of "gaolingyunhan" above the thirty-six cave heaven and seventy-two blessed land Earth ", world natural heritage!
