Protectors on the left and right Chongming Temple

When the young security guard of Tiefo Temple talks about Chongming Temple, his eyes sparkle, making him proud of Gaoping people. What is so rare about the ancient national security temple that can be compared with the Iron Buddha Temple? Chongming Temple, built during the Kaibao period of the Northern Song Dynasty, is the earliest Song-structure building in Gaoping. The earliest one established the unshakable historical authority of this Buddhist temple. On this day, Chongming Temple was extremely lively, because a local ancient architecture tour group came to visit, and they also followed the explanations of expert teachers, and commented on the construction methods of ancient Song Dynasty structures in a specious dialect accent. Only this Chinese Buddhist Hall has the original appearance of the Northern Song Dynasty. It adheres to the openness and openness of the Tang style. It has a single eaves with nine ridges, gentle lifting and folding, seven pavilions as dougongs, and far-reaching eaves. Red brick walls are built on all sides to wrap the pillars inside, making the appearance more simple and square. There is also a famous "broken beam" in the hall. Two small beams are connected and the two ends are placed on the rear ends of the front and rear eaves pillars. This skillfully balances the gravity of the roof on the front and rear eaves pillars. This design is also unique in Gaoping. share. Naturally, some children in the tour group couldn't listen to these professional explanations. They kept running and playing in the front and back yards. When the large group moved to the back hall, they wanted to take a photo in front of the Chinese Buddha Hall, but they were unexpectedly surprised. A child suddenly appeared on the scene, rushed towards me, and was instantly frozen in the photo. He was guarded by Vajra, protecting the Dharma on the left and right, and fulfilled my Bodhisattva heart. Being ignorant and fearless at the age of childhood sweethearts, understanding life at the age of knowing destiny, passing it on naturally, without being awkward or forced, is a good time. 2024.11
