By: yellow-orange Chinese people like to rename, and open in history as large as country names, small villages, if there were no consistent. Leshan only one place, as an example: when the Qin and Han dynasties, called Nan County; to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, only said that Chia-Chou, Tang and Song Dynasties, when this area "two civilizations" big development, so much fame Chia-Chou, Li Bai and Su Shi and other celebrities are all chimed in this leisurely. I wonder who was watching dignitaries Chia-Chou dislike, and will it be renamed Leshan, and finding out the exact information, not to speculate. Admittedly, Leshan Chia-Chou better than this one, because "the Analects of Confucius Yong also" include: "the wise music water, benevolent Leshan", which means the wisdom of the people like water and a virtuous people like Hill. Who does not like to do a virtuous people?
Summer day at dusk, fog was a bit like a big rain, and in Leshan City Xiaogong mouth embankment, sat four, I was one, no matter, just tea. This Xiaogong mouth is not a tourist attraction, but it is a bit unusual. To water as such, it is the intersection of the Minjiang and Dadu angle; to the land concerned, it is the Binjiang Road and link road at Riverfront. Here dare not say that the best location overlooking the Leshan Giant Buddha, but it is an ideal location for convergence Sanjiang taste.
Rain and fog blurred the boundaries between mountains and water, Minjiang, Dadu, Qingyi convergence is still produced by acoustic noise to walk through our heart. The same is to look at three rivers converging, we have a relaxed and happy just to own. However, 1288 years ago (Xuanzong Kaiyuan) has a monk on the other side tipped saw the same scene, but are worried about (whether the tears can not test). The monk called Hai Tong, who had witnessed the confluence of three rivers rapids after the vortex led to a lot of them drown in Fish-bellied, such tragic events are often let him feel bad, so he was inspired to dig a mountain cliff Pong Maitreya Buddha, the town services in the water waves of the evildoer, bless ambition passing ships. Maitreya Buddha known as the "future Buddha", he represents the future, a symbol of bright, good luck and hope. There is based in three rivers, as well as what demons dare presumptuous!
Haitong is clearly an ambitious monk extraordinary figure, he wanted to build a Buddhist temple inside Nitai is not a small Buddha, but on high and Shan Qi (71 m) of the Buddha. Simple, he may not have thought he had to create not only is China the most, but also the world's wonders. Almost all Buddhist architecture, in addition to the Royal monastery, the court will not be funding. From AD 713 onwards, Haitong monks camped, earn four fund-raising, he raised the human and material resources far into the Huaihe River Valleys. 17 years later, the Buddha has finally started sinking, and he is on a hillside not far from the site dig holes and habitat, directing the construction of this unprecedentedly large. Pre-construction is the most difficult, but the monk Haitong great spirit of the Foolish Old Man, his feelings to the Buddha's compassion into the lives of migrants, and Chia-Chou of tranquility, this noble faith to his own hard work and uncomplaining no regrets. Finally finished carving Buddha's head, but he had been framed and Jun Li of the Sashouxiqu. According to Wei Gao, "stone in mind" contains: "Jun Li will seek bribes from time to time in the Zen Master, teacher, saying: 'Since the mesh can be cut out, a rare Buddha Choi!' Lai angry, saying: 'try in the future!' Division is self-ū? their eyes, both hands caused by the disc. lai because Startled, running pray for regret. "sea-this deposit Lingyun Hill, the division of plastic inside the cave, the sea, like the division of the orbital-free beads, despite her fortitude, that is, the events and spirit.
Haitong after the death of the monk, but also by the two continued construction, and it took 90 years, "The mountains are a Buddha, Buddha is a mountain," the ambitious project to complete. Leshan Giant Buddha is completed, the confluence of three rivers is also often among the boat people drowned in the rapids, I have not found a direct historical record. But one thing is certain, after a dynasty of water flow, Leshan flooding is becoming increasingly less.
Leshan from time to time over the next floating-point light rain, fortunately Xiaogong mouth open air cafes pluggin a big umbrella, we can still leisurely taste of the Emei Mountain in Trimeresurus. Hot tea and a few degrees cooler, and our topics, such as in front of the river are endless. We are not far away from the marshland, there are fishermen were out fishing, in such a fog days, I wonder if the fish are particularly vulnerable to cheating Teng arrest? Hu Wen, "soybean curd, soybean curd" and cries, a middle-aged lug burden to us. Had no appetite, but he was good at marketing: "This is a local upper soya and convergence of three rivers made it clear, polished river!" Look where the burden of spices quite rich, there are two kinds of spicy and sweet and can be choice, and finally could not withstand the temptation, we have come to a bowl and immediately spicy, tender and with the Xianchun "Three-River Confluence" was between the mouthpiece. Through the misty rain and fog, the surface of the little river vaguely saw the lights, when suddenly I had a sense of satisfaction. Vision, hearing, taste in place, what luxury should no longer appear.
If the weather is sunny and beautiful, Xiaogong mouth of the Yourenruzhi tonight, only four of us, seemed a bit chilly. Mai Doufu middle-aged brain was tired, I do not know or could not find a better outlet for simply sitting in a chair with us chatting about days. We asked: "Do you only sell a bowl of one dollar, the profit does not seem high, kinda hard, one year down future earnings-na?" He said: "The profit Daohai Yes, a pound of soy bean curd can be made of Liang Tong brain, the cost of expensive spices point, the key was sold out. a year earn a few thousand dollars on the bar! "he went on with emotion, said:" If every day is like an extended holiday, and to visit the Leshan Giant Buddha, more people, and my business enough. "
If the souls of Haitong monks have known, but also the great comfort of the old Wye. Created by him, Leshan Giant Buddha is another way to live in here to bring well-being of the people, but also allow visitors from afar to re-taste "the wise music water, benevolent Leshan," the profound meaning.
