Sanyuan altar

Preface to the history of sanyuantan

He who has heard of the ancient god of protecting the people will be respected by the people, and he will worship for the purpose of building the altar. The three yuan altar of pure land, my Buddhist land, was built in the early Tang Dynasty. Li Jing, a pharmacist and founder of the Tang Dynasty, passed by YAOGOU in Anhui Province. He saw several fishermen suffering from illness. He asked for medicine and recovered on the same day. People feel very much, so Sanyuan altar was set up to show sacrifice. Later, it was built in successive dynasties, and the altar was magnificent, with statues of Buddha, Guanyin, dizang, Jigong, King Lijing, God of wealth, etc. It's said that one day Jigong went down to the world with clouds; Fox fairy and boa constrictor often appeared; and the top of the altar was full of light. In recent years, pilgrims gather, which is called Xiaonanhai.

In the 19th century, the fourth grandmother Xie of Fenghuang Jingzhai built a three-story hexagonal incense Pavilion in front of the altar. The pavilion was carved with eight immortals, crane, unicorn, dragon and Phoenix. Pilgrims come and go in an endless stream, cigarette clouds around the sky.

The Japanese invaders invaded China, destroyed the altar and destroyed the incense Pavilion. After the Japanese pirates were driven away, the local people with lofty ideals simplified the Sanyuan altar and named it Ciyun Temple (jushilin). So far, part of the temple still exists

At the beginning of April this year, a large historic site in YAOGOU town was revived by the wishes of the people. This sacrifice: good weather, peace and stability of the country!

Yongning Temple

It was built in the late Tang Dynasty and early Song Dynasty, and declined in the Yuan Dynasty. In 1367, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, made an expedition to Zhang Shicheng, the king of Wu. Xu Da led the army to camp here, fought against Huanghuatan, collected Wuwei state, and broke the Wu army. The temple was destroyed because of the war. In the past, Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty was a monk, who was good at three treasures. He was treated with courtesy in temples of prefectures and counties, and so were the generals. Yongning Temple was destroyed in the fire, and there were no houses. Xu Da went out to recruit monks, and spent a lot of money to rebuild it. Yongning Temple was changed into general temple, and the statue of Xu Da was placed in the temple. To show their virtue.

The great name is unified and the country is consolidated. Jiangjun temple is located in Huanghuatan, YAOGOU Town, Wuwei Prefecture. It is adjacent to the Yangtze River and controls the inland river. There are many businessmen from the north and the south. The East and the West are prosperous, and the Jiangjun temple is popular. When Xu Da became Queen, the monks heard about it and built 10 more temples and squatters. The scale of the temple and the prosperity of incense were the first in Wuwei state at that time, and also the heyday of the temple. In the early years of the Republic of China, there were only 10 temples left. In 1945, when the Japanese army was defeated and surrendered, they burned the general temple to pieces.

After the founding of the people's Republic of China, due to various reasons, the general temple could not be rebuilt. There was only one temple built by local pilgrims, but the scale was not large. The Buddha statue and the general statue shared one hall, which was extremely disharmonious. In November 2002, master Zonghui moved into the general temple, restored the name of Yongning Temple, and began planning and construction. With the support of many residents, it took four years to build Shanmen, Jiangjun hall, Guanyin hall and Dongfang Sansheng hall, and expanded the temple area from 1 mu to 13 Mu when it was first built, which made the ancient temple shine again and release its son.
