About 200 years later, there was a decorated king of ancient India, and he was the famous Ashoka. He was originally the third monarch of the Mauryan Empire and did not believe in Buddhism. In the process of unifying the country, the ruthless Ashoka led his army to wage wars everywhere, once killing more than 100,000 people at one time. When he conquered the Kalinga country in South India, he saw the scene of corpses strewn and countless refugees, and decided to stop his war and expansion.

Awakened to the realization that "the victory obtained by law is the supreme victory," Emperor Ashoka began to devote himself to the promotion of Buddhism and the promotion of Buddhism. He advocated the Buddhist idea of non-killing, and engraved the idea of non-violence on the stone tablet in the name of the king's edict, so that future generations would always love peace.

As a sign of his love for Buddhism and his respect for Shakyamuni, Emperor Ashoka took possession of the relics of the past eight kings and redistributed them into 84,000 shrines in 84,000 shrines, distributed them throughout the five parts of India, and built 84,000 stupas for worship. Because the pagoda was advocated and built by Emperor Ashoka, it is also called "Ashoka Pagoda". And this is also the reason why most of the stupas were called Ashoka Pagoda in later generations.

In 185 B.C., in the Sunga Dynasty of central India, the king of Bushamidoro took the Brahmins as his national teacher and implemented a comprehensive and brutal policy of attacking Buddhism, destroying more than 800 pagodas, killing all monks, and destroying Buddhism. In the face of this difficulty, many monks tried their best to take away these relics, and later in order to protect this Buddhist treasure, there was this relic shadow bone, one of the Buddha's tooth shadow bone relics was transmitted west to the country of Wuchang, and then with the Silk Road to Khotan, and then a generation of high monks Master Fa Xian brought back to Middle Earth......

In 371 A.D., the ancient Indian kingdom of Gakya was attacked by neighboring countries, and King Gohaseva feared that the tooth of the Buddha would be snatched by the enemy, so he ordered his daughter Princess Hemanli to send the tooth of the Buddha to the lion country and hand it over to the lion king Jit Shali Miwen for offerings. This is the Buddha tooth relic that is now enshrined in the Kandy Buddhist Temple in Sri Lanka.

Another Buddha tooth relic, later reappeared in the day, enshrined in the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple near the city of Qunu, because of the policy of Arona Shun to destroy the Buddha's Brahman, in order to ensure the safety of the Buddha's tooth relic, so he invited it back to his meditation room, so he was enshrined!

Before that, the Buddha tooth relics enshrined in the Chinese dynasties were the shadow bones of this Buddha tooth relic, and then this relic has been enshrined in the palace of the Tang Dynasty. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xizong brought this Buddha tooth to Shu, and the Buddha tooth was submerged for forty-seven years. After this, in the second year of Tiancheng of Tang Mingzong (927 AD), the Yizhou Festival made Meng Zhixiang offer the Buddha's tooth to celebrate his birthday, and the Buddha's tooth was transmitted from Shu to Luoyang, Henan. Immediately after the third year of Tianfu in the Later Jin Dynasty (938 AD) in November, Xijing left and right street monk Lu Kezhao and others brought the Buddha's tooth to Luoyang to Kaifeng. In this war-torn period of five dynasties, the time came to this Kaiyun three years (946 AD), at this time the Khitan invaded Kaifeng, and the Buddha tooth relics had no place to be examined, but it was determined that it was plundered to the north!

Time back to 1900 A.D. in Beijing's Xishan Lingguang Temple, after the Eight-Nation Coalition captured Beijing, this temple was also destroyed in the war, and after 23 years of vigorous reconstruction, it was reborn. Later, in the process of rebuilding Lingguang Temple, on the remnant of Zhaoxian Pagoda in Liao Dynasty, a stone letter was found, which contained an agarwood box, and there was a text on the box: Shakyamuni Buddha Spiritual Tooth Relic, Tianhui seven years (that is, 963 AD) April twenty-three diary, Shanhui book.

The monk who presided over the reconstruction project opened the wooden box in public, and sure enough, he saw a Buddha tooth relic, and the monks were overjoyed, so they enshrined the Buddha tooth relic in the meditation hall of Lingguang Temple, and became the treasure of the town temple. According to the research of the late Mr. Zhao Puchu, president of the Buddhist Association of China, this relic is indeed one of the two Buddha teeth that survived in the world after the death of Shakyamuni.

Now this Buddha tooth relic is still there, and it is enshrined in the Buddha Tooth Pagoda of Lingguang Temple, witnessing the glory of the Chinese nation......

There are poems:

The Buddha passed away and left his bones

There are many disasters in the millennium

Step into the Chinese Spiritual Light Display

The glory of the prosperous era blesses all the people

The long river of history is rolling, like a seven-colored rainbow. Joy, anger, sorrow, sorrow, horror, how many swords and swords. After talking about this Buddha tooth relic, let's come back and talk about this Almita. She and Prad fled by boat along the river along the river from the east gate of the city of Qunu to the kingdom of Ayuda.

As mentioned above, during the reign of the king of the Horisha Empire, this Ayuta country has always been the rear of its elephant army, and the relationship between the two countries is quite harmonious. Since this Alonashun usurped the throne, he still maintained good relations with this Ayuta country.

Although at this time the king of the kingdom of Ayuta had heard that this Alonashun had been captured, and the rest of the army fled to his kingdom of Ayutha; Although he also intended to fight back, after all, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the Tang Alliance's banner of this was only to kill the rest of the Alonashun, and it had nothing to do with other countries. Therefore, it also has the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight!

Not long after, the two of them, Almita and Prade, fled south along the Ganga River to the elephant army camp on the bank of the Qiantuowei River, where they not only collected the defeated soldiers, but also obtained the original 5,000 defenders here, totaling more than 10,000 people!

I saw this handsome tent. Prad said to Almita in a low voice: "Queen Mother, according to the defeated soldiers, my father has been captured by Wang Xuance, and one of his generals is coming with 20,000 soldiers, what should we do?" ”

Although this Amital fled in embarrassment all the way, he was extremely calm at this time, and he slowly said to Prader: "This King Ayutta is also the one who sees the wind and the rudder, and when he is fleeing south, I have sent a messenger to send troops to support, but I have not received any response from him. Although the current situation is difficult, after all, there are still so many defenders, even if they die, they must fight to the death with them openly, only in this way can they be worthy of your father! ”

When he heard the dead word, Prad retreated. At the age of twenty, he was originally in his youth, but he never thought that he had just robbed the Tang Mission, a seemingly insignificant little thing; actually ruined the empire of the emperor and the life of the father and queen mother!

Counting carefully, I can't count how many such trivial things I have done in my life, and I can't think clearly. But only this one thing makes it unforgettable. What kind of country is this Datang? Thousands of miles away from me, he has such great ability and ability, which really makes him feel a little terrifying!
