Lingfeng Temple

Lingfeng temple in the history of Lingfeng temple, built by mountains and rivers, the layout is well arranged, and the scale is very grand. According to the annals of Santai County in Jiaqing of the Qing Dynasty, there is a bridge across the river, just like the bow at the beginning of the moon. It was built at the place where the Tieqin meets the immortal and gets the zhantan, which is named "meeting the immortal". The mountain has three platforms. After crossing Xianqiao, climb 20 or 30 steps to the first platform. From south to north, the mountain gate, Tianwang hall, Qifo hall, Zhuanlun hall, Daxiong hall and Yaobei Pavilion were successively built. From the left side of the runner hall ladder radial up to the second platform. From the south to the north, the "Buddhist kingdom of the west" square and the great compassion hall are built on the top, and the sengliao Zhaitang is built on the left and right sides. Out of the "Buddhist kingdom in the west" square, to the south, there is a peak, which looks like a bull's head. It is the third platform and the commanding height of the whole temple. From north to south, there are Wenchang hall and Leizu hall, and Huayan Pavilion and Shuixian hall in the East. In the west of Wenchang hall, there is a high stone platform with a forest of Steles on it. The steles include the statue of Sakyamuni by Yan Liben, the Prime Minister of Danqing in the early Tang Dynasty, the statue of Guanyin by Wu Daozi, the sage of painting in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the story of the bell tower of Lingfeng courtyard by Wang Xianfu, the judge of fenglang and Shuzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty. Its temple covers an area of more than 10000 square meters. It has an important geographical location and developed land and water transportation. Most of the celebrities in ancient and modern times will be here. It is said that the giant plaque of "the Buddhist kingdom in the west" is the handwriting of Xuanzang, a great monk in the Tang Dynasty; Chen Tuan, a master of Qigong and a neo Confucianist in the Five Dynasties, is said to have lived in seclusion here; Su Yijian, the number one scholar in Zizhou in the Northern Song Dynasty, once drank wine and wrote poems there. From the Southern Song Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there were many eminent monks in Lingfeng temple. The only works and inscriptions were Tieqin, Baosheng, Zhiwu, kechen and Wanxing. Tieqin is the originator of Lingfeng temple in Southern Song Dynasty. Because of the immortal arm skill of old woman, its temple is famous. Baosheng, the successor of Tieqin, has "built a bell tower on the top of the courtyard" in Shaoxing. Its building is seven feet high, five feet and six feet high. It is tall and majestic. It looks up with the head and moves people's mind. After "Yuanji temple was abolished", he realized in Yongle of Ming Dynasty that "the revival of the ancient temple was accomplished in a few years". So Lingfeng temple was brilliant again. Salman kechen, a native of benba (baiyanba) in Tongchuan, was born in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty. He traveled to Nanhai, ascended Putuo and visited many people. He was brave and vigorous, and returned ten years later. Yan Liben's statue of Sakyamuni Buddha and Wu Daozi's statue of Guanyin master have been reprinted and printed around the stele of weimotian master and Maitreya Buddha. At the end of Ming Dynasty, Lingfeng temple was destroyed again by war. In 1757, the magistrate of Tongchuan ordered the local gentlemen to "meet monk Wanxing of menglongzhi (in today's Jingfu town) on the South Road and come to the mountain for repair.". The temple of Guanyin, the seven Buddhas, the heavenly king and the thunder god were newly built But after Chen "sat down", his disciples complied with the will and "tried their best to build trees, but did not refuse the cold and heat.". Every tree planted is a volume of Sutra In the ten years before and after that, the total number of cypresses planted was 5480. From then on, Lingfeng temple was built
