Chapter 782: Consecration Ceremony (3)
At 6 o'clock in the morning of the next day, the sky was just white, and a bell rang out in the Dayun Temple under the Luoyan Peak, mellow and loud, melodious and long!
Immediately afterwards, the sound of the bell rang, and it was heard from afar, as if the Sanskrit chant: "Hearing the bell, the troubles are light and the wisdom grows, Bodhi increases from hell, out of the fire pit, and wishes to become a Buddha and save all sentient beings!" Omgarati Yasha Bha! Omgarati Yasha Bha! Omgarati Yasha Bha! โ
A Buddha and a bell, each round is slowly knocked eighteen times, and each round is rapidly knocked eighteen times, a total of three rounds of 108 sounds, representing the elimination of people's 108 kinds of troubles, diligent practice, enlightenment Bodhi; It also symbolizes the 12 months of the year, the 24 solar terms, and the 72 seasons, the cycle is endless, and the days are long!
The bell on the bell tower on the left side of the mountain gate of Dayun Temple has just stopped, and the aftermath is still echoing in the mountains, and the drum on the drum tower on the right is ringing again. The sound of chanting Buddha and drums sounded again!
The sound of bells, drums, and Buddha's voices awaken the sleeping mountains, and the boiling day begins!
In fact, the tour groups that arrived in Wulongyu yesterday afternoon and evening all began to organize tourists to climb the mountain at 4 o'clock in the morning, earlier than the bell of Dayun Temple!
At this time, the mountaineering road leading to Luoyan Peak in Wulongyu was already full of people.
The ancient and remote Wulongyu is full of vitality!
There were too many tourists, which greatly exceeded expectations, and Wulongyu Tourism Development Co., Ltd. was all mobilized, and many of the workers only slept for two or three hours at night before they began to work.
The public security team that is responsible for the task of safety and security is also mobilized, and they work early, set up posts in various scenic spots in the Wulongyu Scenic Area, and patrol the mountaineering road leading to Luoyan Peak in Wulongyu and the road leading to the cable car boarding point to ensure safety and no accidents.
The media reporters from all walks of life who came to Wulongyu for interviews also got up early and set off, went to Dayun Temple to shoot the scene of the morning bell and morning class, and went up and down the Yanfeng to shoot the sunrise of the wild goose, and had to rush to the main venue of the opening ceremony early to occupy the seat. There is no way, the Falling Goose Guanyin is so far, the tallest statue of Guanyin in Asia, and today is the day of the light, how can this kind of news hotspot be missed? Therefore, there are a lot of media reporters who come, which is much beyond the scope of the invitation of the organizing committee.
After discovering that the Central Plains Provincial Television Station had sent an interview car and that the interview car could not drive to the main venue of the opening ceremony, they had already urgently reported to the station at dinner last night, requesting that they consult with the Central Plains garrison and deploy additional helicopters for CCTV reporters to conduct aerial photography. As a result, CCTV came forward to coordinate, and the main leaders of the Central Plains Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government were all in Wulongyu to watch the ceremony, and the matter was done, and the helicopter landed in Wulongyu at 7 o'clock, and after carrying CCTV reporters, it took off to take aerial photos.
Because Wulongyu people are Chen Guan's hometown, they enjoy great blessings, and for the first time in the world, the village is going to land a helicopter!
At 7 o'clock in the morning, the sound of Sanskrit had sounded on the top of Luoyan Peak.
Chen Guan originally envisioned setting up a loudspeaker on the top of Luoyan Peak to play Buddhist music. However, when the capital negotiated with the great monks of the Buddhist Association of China, those great monks knew that although Chen Guan's plan was in line with the Buddhist ceremonies, he must not have participated in the great Dharma meeting of the Buddhist family, and he did not know that there was no need to set up a loudspeaker to play Buddhist music.
However, the tweeter still needs to be built, the audio still needs to be installed, and the wireless microphone is still needed! Although the voices of so many monks singing in unison are loud enough, it is necessary to consider the needs of Mr. Zhao Puchu, who presided over the consecration ceremony, when praising them, and the needs of 108 eminent monks when they consecrate!
The so-called Sanskrit is the meaning of praise or singing, including praise and chanting. Sanskrit is the Indian word for "quiet"; ๅ is an abbreviation of the Indian word "ๅhidden".
Sanskrit, the statement that Sanskrit belongs to one of the five Ming of India, is the original sound of Chinese Buddhist music, derived from Indian declarations, and is the sound of monks chanting scriptures
When Buddhism was introduced to China, Buddhist music also came from India. However, the Chinese Fanbei was created by the great poet Chen Siwang Cao Zhi during the Three Kingdoms period, and is called Yushan Fanbei.
It is said that Cao Zhi likes to recite Buddhist scriptures, when visiting the fish mountain in Dong'a, Shandong, he heard a kind of Sanskrit sound in the air, clear and mournful, very moving, listen carefully for a long time, have a deep understanding, is to copy its syllables, according to the "Rui Ying Ben Qi Sutra" written as Sanskrit, write the text and make the sound, the music melody and the rhyme of the Sanskrit poem and the pronunciation of the Chinese characters are matched, the sound and text are both, so that the Buddhist scriptures are seamless when chanting, and the problem of using Sanskrit sound to sing Chinese "is complicated", and the Sanskrit verse is satirized by Chinese songs, "the rhyme is short and the words are long".
Later, according to Cao Zhi's experience, the monks of the past dynasties began to try to further use Chinese folk music to adapt Buddhist songs or create new songs, so that the ancient Indian Sanskrit music was gradually combined with traditional Chinese culture, and in the Sui, Tang and Song dynasties, it was integrated with the Buddhist music elements of the Western Regions and other countries, forming a Chinese Buddhist music system - Chinese Fanbai.
The accompaniment of the Sanskrit is mainly composed of ritual instruments, chimes, bells, hafnium, bells, drums, fish, etc., and is also accompanied by simple wind instruments when necessary. Such as "Green Yellow Flower", "Hanging Golden Lock", "Heroin", "Eight Sentences of Praise", "Zhun Ti Mantra", "Pu'an Mantra" and so on. Among them, the "Pu'an Mantra" is not only used by monasteries. Piano, pipa, and orchestral ensembles all have the same name. The whole song consists of "Commentary and Sentences", "The First Mantra", "Xiangzan", "
