3, Indian holy stone

In the western Indian state of Maharashtra called Shivoburi. There is a Sufi saint Kumar. Ali. The temple of Darvich.

There are two "holy stones" weighing about 90 kilograms each in the open space in front of the temple, which can automatically leave the ground with the shouts of people. Only people placed the index finger of their right hand at the base of the "sacred stone" and shouted in unison and without pause, "Kumar. Ali. Dalvi-Chi-Chi-Qi". And when pronouncing the word "Qi", the sound is as long as possible, so that the heavy stone suddenly bounces off the ground like a living person and hangs to a height of about 2 meters. It doesn't fall back to the ground until people are out of breath when they are out of breath.

4. Holy Stone Temple

One of the earliest surviving Islamic buildings, the Dome of the Holy Stone Temple in Jerusalem (688~692), is actually a temple. Its basic architectural form is a striking example of the pursuit of the combination of cube and dome. The balance between the cube-shaped octagonal shape and the dome. In the centuries to come, few could surpass it. This centralized form not only had its projection on the dome of the main hall of the mosque in the future, but also was adopted by the main building of the mausoleum later, and had a far-reaching influence.

The domed sacred stone temple was built in the early years of the Umayyad Dynasty. During the period of the formation of Islamic art, the glass mosaics used were in the tradition of Christian art, with motifs from Sassanid, Byzantine and local motifs. However, on the marble slabs in the lower part of the building, there is already a simple beginning of abstract geometric ornamentation. This kind of ornamentation has become more complex and dizzying. The slightly pointed round and the pointed arches that echo it throughout the building may have been inspired by the pointed barrel vaults of the Sassanid palaces. The pointed arch is more flexible than the round arch because it can be designed to almost any scale. Introduced to Europe, the pointed arch was adopted by Romanesque architecture at the end of the 11th century, and became the standard shape of the arch during the Gothic period. It was thanks to the pointed arches that the Gothic church building was able to rise to that height.

5, Stone of Destiny

The Stone of Destiny, also known as the Stone of Destiny, is commonly known as the "Stone of Destiny" or "Coronation Stone", on which successive Scottish kings have stood and been crowned. It was taken by Edward I when England annexed Scotland in 1296 and has been stored under the Coronation Seat at Westminster Abbey. It was returned to Scotland in 1996, but instead of being returned to Skun Abbey, it was placed in Edinburgh Castle.

The so-called "Stone of Destiny" is a large rock that was seated at the time of the coronation of the capital city of the Kingdom of Scotland, Skun, when Kenneth I united the Picots and Scotts in 843 A.D., and was called "Stone of Destiny", which is one of the sacred relics necessary for the coronation of British monarchs to this day. It is said that this stone has an unusual origin, and is the stone that Jacob in the Bible was pillow on when he dreamed of the staircase to heaven. There is also a legend that it came from ancient Egypt or ancient Ireland.

Early historical records of the Stone of Destiny suggest that it was used in the enthronement celebrations of several Darriadick monarchs, and appeared in Iona, Dunadd, Dunstaffnage, and Scone. In 1292, John. John Baliol became the last king of Scotland to use the Stone of Destiny after Edward I of England invaded Scotland in 1296 and took it, as well as plundering other important national treasures in the south of Scotland and depositing them in Rabbey, England. For the next 700 years, it served as part of the throne of Ewards for each new monarch to sit at the coronation. The last time the Stone of Destiny was used was at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II in 1953.

On Christmas Day 1950, four Scottish students (and Alanstuart) took the Skun Stone from Westminster Abbey and returned it to Scotland.

On 11 April 1951, the Scots believed that the British Government had yielded to popular opinion, so they held a symbolic ceremony to enshrine the Skun Stone on the altar of Arbroath Abbey in Angusshire, hoping that it would be placed in the custody of the Church of Scotland. But the London police learned of Skun Stone's whereabouts and brought him back to Westminster Abbey.

On November 30, 1996, St. On Andrew Day, the Stone of Destiny returns to Scotland and is celebrated in Edinburghcastle. The Stone of Destiny, along with other national symbols of Scotland, became the glory of Scotland. About 10,000 people came to the Royal Mile in front of Edinburgh Castle to catch a glimpse of the King's Stone. The Stone of Destiny was escorted from the Palace of Holyroodhouse (Dhouse) all the way to the castle under the protection of some important people and military personnel. In St. Giles' Cathedral, the church of the presiding priest of the Church of Scotland, St. Giles' Cathedral, the Holy Priest John Gilles. McKinddou officially took over the throne and said it would "add a unique spiritual strength to which the people of Scotland can be proud".

Although the stone has now returned to Scotland, the British government has issued an ordinance that in the future when the king is crowned, the stone will still be transported back to Westminster Abbey and placed under St. Edward's throne.

In the splendid ancient history of our country, there are two treasures that are famous all over the world and must be fought for by the emperors of all dynasties, that is, the wall of the He clan and the pearl of the Marquis of Sui. There is a detailed record of these two treasures in "Han Feizi": "The wall of the He clan is not decorated with five cai; The pearl of the Marquis of Sui is not decorated with silver yellow, its quality is beautiful, and the thing is not enough to decorate. "LĂź's Spring and Autumn. "Guansheng Chapter" uses "Sui Zhu to play the sparrow" as a metaphor for the principle of overkill: "Now someone uses the pearl of the Sui Marquis to play the finch of a thousand people, what is it? "Every beautiful thing is accompanied by a moving story, and the wall of the He clan and the pearl of the Marquis of Sui are no exception. People may be familiar with the allusions to the wall of the Heshi, but little is known about the beautiful legend of the pearl of the Marquis of Sui. (To be continued)
