The morning sun shines on Takayama Temple, birds fly, golden wings outlining the tiled blue sky and distant mountains. The temple is quiet and solemn, and the bells blown by the wind are crisp and melodious, and suddenly, a string of wind chimes comes from the eaves of the temple. They sprinkled their elegant music on the world and blessed them with good morning. However, before they could make a sound, the birds had already flown away, and it felt as if they had taken the sound with them. Slowly, there were more and more pedestrians in the temple, and they walked briskly. A monk has a smile on his face, and the sun shines on his face, forming a picture of kindness and kindness. He whispered "Amitabha" as if he were both facing the world and immersed in his own heart. We greeted him, and he smiled back, still gentle and kind, like the morning sun, kind and warm. Some people call him Deyushi, which is a very good name. One by one, we stepped forward and shook hands, feeling that his virtue was as warm as jade. There was a thought in my heart, as if I had seen him in **, but I was not sure. The sun is getting brighter and brighter, and the flying rainbow bridge of Gaoshan Temple is more magnificent and wonderful.
The Flying Rainbow Bridge of Gaoshan Temple, also known as the Covered Bridge, spans two valleys, and the spring water flowing below is tinkling, and the shape of the bridge is in an arc, spanning east and west. At both ends of the bridge are lintels, which are carved with patterns, elegant Yuan Dynasty style. The structure of this covered bridge is a flying rainbow, and the four walls are dotted with exquisite calligraphy and paintings, as well as brick carvings and flower and bird paintings, which are beautiful and dazzling. Feihongqiao is located at the lowest valley of Gaoshan Temple, just on the edge of the mountain stream and valley. The bridge is made of stone blocks, with a total length of 136 meters and a width of 27 meters, and the lintel is engraved with the words "Huangmei First Spring". According to legend, this is the true work of the Jingjian Patriarch. The bridge has endured thousands of years of wind and rain, and is still standing majestically, withstanding the test of cloudy winds, lewd rain, snow and frost. From here, you can see the most beautiful view. Standing in front of the bridge railing, looking at it, the ravines under the mountain are steep, the flowing water is murmuring, and the pine waves are bursting, which makes people feel refreshed and happy. Time flies, life is between heaven and earth, time is moving forward, the seasons are in reincarnation, years and stars, many people and many things seem to be separated from each other. However, such a gentle and kind elder, we seem to have seen it before. The feeling flashed by, as if in a dream.
Climb high and overlook, the mountains are stacked, like the waves of the long river of time, layer upon layer, one after another, magnificent. It's late autumn, and the nearby peaks are still lush and green, with a faint gray in the distance, and a layer of pale and misty colors in the distance, just like the elegant dispersion in the ink. The covered bridge is like a faint painting, but it reveals infinite elegance and style. A bridge is a thick scroll of history, stretching endlessly, dazzling, depicting the memory of history and the traces of time. A bridge is a microcosm of an era, dotted with stars and of different lengths, telling the customs of the world. Walking through the temple bridges, you can feel the Zen of the Buddha and the eternity of thousand-year-old wisdom. Master Deyu smiled, and the sunlight outlined a harmonious silhouette. Leading us, pacing between the temples, looking up, turning around, the towering buildings, the gorgeous picture scroll came into view. Gaoshan Temple, is not what it used to be, the hard-working hands of the jade master, the smart heart, let the place glow with gorgeous and colorful brilliance, nestled between the remaining veins of Dabie Mountain, facing the smart Kaotian River, Gaoshan Temple is more majestic and solemn. Gaoshan Temple, also known as Gaoshan Puzhao Temple, is located in a remote area and the traffic is very inconvenient. According to legend, it was built in the Song Dynasty and is surrounded by ancient walls that are more than 2,000 meters long.
There are four gates in the temple, east, west, north and south, although the years are long, but they are still well preserved. According to the chronicles, during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestor of Jingjian hung tin here, established a dojo, and renamed it Gaoshan Temple. The mountains are high and the roads are far away, and the ancestor Jingjian personally planted the land and vegetables, refusing to accept alms. It is rumored that 360 taro crops are planted every year, and only one taro is harvested every day to make a living. If a guest comes, he will go hungry for a day. After the death of the Jingjian patriarch, the emperor expressed his deep admiration and personally named the Jingjian patriarch. As a result, the incense became more prosperous, and the number of monks increased day by day, reaching hundreds at one point. In the twelfth year of Ming orthodoxy, the ** Wen Jian of Jingjian Patriarch continued to repair the lower hall of the temple, and built a magnificent Feihong Bridge on the deep stream on the right side of the temple. Let's go back in time. Deyushi was born in an ordinary family in Harbin. When he was a child, he was sentimental and pitiful, and the elders said that the child was blessed. Maybe it's just a sentence that few people remember, but many years later, Master Deyu, who has become a monk of Donglin Temple, recalled this sentence in the early morning. Is this a Zen machine?It is not easy to be a good person, and it is even more difficult to do good. With the belief of giving back to mankind and contributing to society, he studied Xi life in Donglin Temple. He spearheaded the establishment of a memorial group to provide end-of-life care to those who are seriously ill and dying.
Gradually, he built up a wide range of contacts. In 2014, a chance encounter brought Tokuyu to Takayama Temple. At that time, the Gaoshan Temple was a little dilapidated, with only one patriarch hall and two ear rooms, and the simple places were even more shabby, and the non-shabby places also looked barren. After living at Takayama Temple for a year, Tokuyu gradually fell in love with the land, making it his home and integrating his mind with it. For the next eight years, he became a diligent monk, working from sunrise to sunset, and in order to save money, he worked diligently and thriftily, serving as a manager and laborer on the construction site, and even driving earth-moving trucks, excavators and hook machines around the construction site. Although he was approaching the age of 60 and his back was a little rickety, he still worked tirelessly. A strong sense of dedication drives him to keep moving forward. Eight years of hard work have turned the blueprints into gorgeous buildings, such as squares, covered bridges, the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the Patriarch's Palace, etc., which make the world breathtaking. Eight years ago, I came here, and eight years later, I stood on the central axis of Kozanji Temple again, and I was greeted by the fairyland in the mountains and the prosperity of the world.
Standing in the sun, Master Deyu told me that he had come to see himself as a local, and when he saw the land and the people of the land, he felt cordial and warm. Yes, he has fallen in love with Kozanji and everything here. The joys and pains of life come from the heart, and only when we are willing to give and have no desires will our world become vast and happy. He wore a white-washed robe, but he was still unpretentious, diligent in his practice, and selfless in his dedication. The smiling Master Deyu was more kind and kind. Birds spread their wings high on the ridge of the roof, and wind chimes make a crisp sound with the wind. **Nie Yuanchao.
