This trip to Beijing, in addition to loss of the year for another purpose, that is attracted to visit Quanzhen attractions - White Cloud Temple. At that time, but here the famous Quanzhen ancestral home - the seven disciples of Wang Chong-yang, one of the seven rivers and lakes called the whole truth, which is Quanzhen Long, founder of sects, known as Changchun live - Qiu machine Dojo. Although such a description is a bit strange, but now the emphasis is on community brand and reputation, if such a description, some people may think that White Cloud Temple is a Taoist temple belongs to cat with three legs and his ilk fills said Qiu Changchun live machine or may be someone do not know, but if the whole truth Seven Quanzhen launched, and does not know who naturally relatively less, especially those who read his adaptation of Jin Yong's novel or seen the film a friend.
Attracted to visit White Cloud Temple, of course, not to live Qiu Changchun machine from. But the other day in looking for the origin of the Nine Emperors in the information learned in the White Cloud Temple on the temple for people in Dou Mu Yuan-chen. The total is well known that many of Malaysia's nine Emperors were known as the Dou Mu Temple, Palace, Palace Basking Doumu Gong, or the Big Dipper. The true face of the Nine Emperors has still preserved its mystique, no one knows, it was said that nine martyrs; Some say that one's ninth of the national hero; Some say that one of nine head of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom; and some say yes vertical and horizontal Seven Seas, Hangxiazhangyi pirates. Anyway divergent views.
It is noteworthy that the lunar calendar's first day to the ninth day in September is the birthday of the Nine Emperors, the temple will be hanging nine oil lamps, as is bamboo pluggin so called "pole lamp" light from top to bottom, respectively: One, two, three, three of the isosceles triangle arrangement with, I have questioned Pacific Furutake Basking Palace Temple of the Big Dipper "Vegetarian Friends" (another name for believers. 9 Emperors during the birth of believers who hold prime ring dirty) The sword of Damocles hanging Kanto reasons, "the highest representative of a keeper, the second floor on behalf of two deputy keeper, the third layer and fourth layer of oil lamps represent the living and the dead food friends Chang-ming, said lamp longevity a year on behalf of keeper extinguished the lamp often for no reason, the results of that year's keeper turned sick in the near dead. "Let's talk about lights turned off and people passed away, reminds me of the former Chi-Ting Ming Wuzhang story, lights eliminate = who passed away between the two may have some relevance.
Nine Emperors because there is no specific statues of the Nine Emperors in Malaysia believers regard the popular Thai island of Doumu Gong Shu as the Nine Emperors of the temple, people wishing to search for the Nine Emperors in China is the birthplace of the difficulties . Only first day to the ninth day of the lunar month birthday, who quit dirty Su, Chang-ming lighting is available for reference clues.
To have finally learned the books of Taoism: "Dou Mu, but also for the Big Dipper Basking. Bucket that Beidou the stars; Beam, that is, the mother also. Tao book" too on the mysterious spiritual Story Yuanjun Benming Yansheng Heart Sutra, "said, 'the Big Dipper el for the Beidou trans-pacific mother '. "According to" Hokuto Bunsen been "recorded, in the long, long time ago, there was a king named Zhou Yu Wang, he had a favored concubines, number" Purple Lady ", gave birth to nine children, boss Emperor the Great and her younger brother Ziwei the Great, the remaining seven children as Tan Lang, giant doors, Lu Cun, Venturi, Lian Zhen, Wuqu and broken army. In Taoism, the Great Emperor Great, and Zi-wei is one of the four Royal, while the remaining seven children are well-known Big Dipper. The private sector have to "go south fighting the Birth, Beidou the main death, to give birth to children, seeking the Southern struggle, we should pray for long life Compass," saying there are a few areas in China retained the Chinese custom of elements held in September.
From the two kinds of names but they are not similar to folk customs, it can be concluded the Nine Emperors Malaysian Chinese folk religion from the worship of Dou Mu Malaysia Nine Emperors of incense from China, not Thailand. Why is the Nine Emperors Temple, known as the Dou Mu Temple mystery solved followed suit. Nine Emperors of the cards is not a so-called "martyrs", "Hero," "leader" or "pirate", but the northern sky, and their two Laoge Big Dipper - Zi-wei and the Emperor. So baiyun can be regarded as the birthplace of Nine Emperors.
In addition to the Dou Mu Yuan Chen Temple, baiyun Another feature is that it is located in the plains above, the majority of Taoist temples are landed in the jungle among the mountains. In addition, the Taoist temples of the three hundred on the second floor is the drum pattern of left-right clock arrangement, but the White Cloud Temple to the contrary, is said to be the year sinister wind Temple White Cloud Temple monks prepared to use sinister wind blown clouds, in the big battle of wits when the Taoist White Cloud Temple, the three hundred swap on the second floor, breaking the sinister wind Temple, "Yao Fa", White Cloud Temple preserved so far. This is a concept where a Road chiefs say that story. As for the sinister wind temple located? So far no one knows.
China's tourism industry has been circulating a doggerel: "look at the temple during the day, sleep at night," but to visit temples are Buddhist monasteries, Taoist temples less baiyun few comparable with Buddhism, Taoism jungle jungle Construction . In addition to Bell and Drum Tower, Yuan Chen Temple, White Cloud Temple building complex also includes the worship Taoist Temple law-enforcement official Spirit of God; worship the Jade Emperor's Yu Huangdian; worship Tian Guan, ground officer, the water officer sanguandian; worship God of Wealth of the financial Temple; worship Taiyizhenren of Jiu Ku Tian Temple; dedicated to Sun Ssu-Dian and so the medicine. Beyond that, after the opening of White Cloud Temple is a concept of ancestral worship - a QIU Zu Qiu machine live hall. QIU Zu bring up the rear, it is primarily dedicated to Taoist gods Samcheonggak and four Royal Palace. Three clear that Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao and moral Tianzun; 4 Royal, that is, Haotian God, Polaris God, Ziwei God, Houtu imperial manner only. Polaris God that is brought before the Great Emperor.
In addition, there was the west line of Lu Zu Temple dedicated to Lu Tung-pin; worship of the Eight Immortals Eight Immortals Temple; worship Taishan empress gave birth to the empress, empress sons, vision empress, smallpox goddess and other gods of the five women, Yuanjun Hall; worship of Wenchang Xing Jun Wenchang Temple; while the previously-mentioned flies Yuan Chen Temple, then taken command in the West line of the end of Yuan-chen Dou Mu Yuan Jun worship hall in addition, the two sides have long Dobby Executed - God Save the canopy and are all run the Ming Dynasty Casting bronze statue, in addition to Yuan Chen hall also houses the memorial tablets 60 Jiazi God, 60 Jiazi God on duty each shift, that is, the year Tai Sui, who was born that year, when the value Benming God is his God, as six 10 Jiazi less than harmonious relationship between God, it is said people are often guilty of Tai Sui, recovery of its bedrock, that is: "I told you out when I was a value, the guy you have to take care of bad luck." This is the Taoist gods personified into one of the symbols.
In this paper, a great length about the Nine Emperors may cause readers to create a feeling irrelevant, in fact not the case, misfires has always been the way I wrote the article. What about the Nine Emperors introduced baiyun than the layout and structure of the building more meaningful, China's architectural forms, Dafan Pao Bule, "Xie Shan", "veranda Hall," "Hard Mountain", to the high point to a "eaves" of the class, if it is who studied architecture to introduce finished Tell me who do not necessarily understand. Do not?
