Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Hall of Water and Land Water and Land Puja
Water and Land Temple?
Hearing Chun Ting's mouth determine where we were going to explore next, I suddenly understood why he was smiling so strangely.
Previously, because Yong'an was leading the way, it was not convenient for us to talk or explore, so Chun Ting deliberately found a reason to send him aside and asked him to take Ling Xuan and Xie Xie to the most damaged place in the Huanghua Temple to check.
Yong'an didn't doubt this statement, he left with the two of them first, and the place where he went was the next clue we got now, the Water and Land Palace.
Xue Nan also remembered why this place was so familiar, and she looked at Chunting in surprise, unable to believe it.
"Chunting, are you sure that this intersection is the Water and Land Palace?"
Chunting didn't answer directly, he shrugged his shoulders, his words casual but very affirmative.
"I have been familiar with the location of the halls of the Huanghua Temple in the past two days, as long as the drainage track of the head you calculated is correct, I will not make a mistake."
Shen Lang saw Chunting's reaction and knew that he had full confidence in this matter, so he no longer doubted it, but just muttered emotion.
"That's too much of a coincidence......"
I couldn't help but sigh too, but I wasn't overly surprised, because I had already figured out that no matter where the clue was indicated, we all had no choice, so why bother.
"Don't think about it, it's all providence."
Chunting is still as indifferent as ever, he is not as emotional as us, but takes the lead in the forefront, stepping towards the direction of the Water and Land Palace.
This Huanghua Temple is said to be not big, but in fact the sparrow is small, all the organs are complete, there are all kinds of halls and side halls, if it is not for the spring pavilion in front of the way, we really can't find where this water and land hall is located for a while.
Under the leadership of Chunting, the plaque of the Water and Land Hall soon appeared in front of us, and before everyone approached, we heard the three people who had just gone ahead of the hall discussing fiercely.
"Brother Ting, why are you here?"
Although Ling Xuan was discussing with these two people, he was the first to notice our arrival.
"I'm tired of shopping, I want to come and see you, how is it, what do you think of the renovation of this water and land hall?"
Chun Ting secretly glanced at Ling Xuan and Xie Xie, and then said casually.
"We are discussing with Little Master Yong'an how to repair this place, and it just so happens that you are here, so you might as well discuss everything."
Xie Xie is also a shrewd person, although he is not as tacit as Ling Xuan and Chun Ting, but when he saw Chun Ting's eyes, he didn't know that things had changed, although he didn't know what was going on, but his face was still as usual, and he talked about the repair of this water and land hall.
It turns out that this water and land hall is derived from the water and land puja, but this Huanghua Temple has been built for thousands of years, but has not held any water and land puja, so idle can not help but make people feel that it is useless to stay here, so these three people are now discussing whether to repair or abandon this water and land hall.
"Brother Chuan, what is the Water and Land Puja?"
Shen Lang heard Xie Xie's introduction, and continued to carry forward his spirit of asking if he didn't understand, and looked at me and asked my own questions.
And I only know a little about these, Buddhism naturally doesn't dare to be embarrassed, so I can only look at Ling Xuan embarrassedly, Ling Xuan smiled helplessly when he saw this, and began to introduce us to what this so-called water and land puja means.
Water and land puja, originated in the Northern and Southern Dynasties when Emperor Wu of Liang, through the Tang Dynasty Esoteric Buddhism full development, until the Song, Yuan, Ming Dynasty mature stereotype, has been handed down to this day, its full name is the Dharma Realm Shengfan Water and Land Pudu Lent Victory Meeting, referred to as the water and land meeting, also known as the water and land dojo, is a practice of Han Buddhism, but also the most grand and grand festival in Han Buddhism.
The water and land puja is offered to the Buddhas and sages of the ten directions, and the sentient beings of the six realms are rescued, and mandalas are set up extensively, so that the sentient beings participating in the puja can have their causes and root instruments, and go to the altars to listen to the scriptures and hear the Dharma.
"Obediently, it turns out that this is such a major Buddhist puja, but this Huanghua Temple doesn't look like it can be done......"
Shen Lang learned the origin of the water and land puja from Ling Xuan's mouth, and then began to comment on the Huanghua Temple without concealment.
I saw him like this and hurriedly covered his mouth, this fool doesn't know whether to hit someone in the face or not, and he really doesn't know how to write the word embarrassing when he says such a thing in front of others.
"Little Master, my brother is unscrupulous, don't blame it."
Chun Ting came out and played a round, but when we heard him say that Tong Yan was unscrupulous, we couldn't help but laugh secretly, this Shen Lang really didn't look like a child, and it was difficult for Chun Ting to open his eyes and talk nonsense.
"Amitabha, what Shen Lang's donor said is not wrong, and the monks in the temple have also discussed it in private, which is why I discussed it with the two donors, it is really useless to use this water and land hall."
Yongan smiled slightly, but instead explained to Chunting for Shen Lang, but it didn't seem to be angry.
"Little Master, as far as I know, not all temples have this hall, since your temple has not held a water and land puja, then I don't know why this water and land hall was built when the temple was built?"
Xue Nan found the key point and asked Yongan about the mystery of the origin of this water and land hall.
"Female donor, the little monk doesn't know about this, but I heard that when the temple was built, it seems that the water and land hall was built first, and then the Daxiong Treasure Hall and the Tianwang Palace, etc., the specific reason has long been unknown."
Yongan also answered Xue Nan with doubts, seeing that his doubts did not seem to be fake.
It was originally built first this water and land hall, and then there was this Huanghua Temple.
Hearing Yong'an's explanation, we secretly glanced at each other, and secretly said that there was something strange here.
Chunting saw that everyone was standing here without making any progress, so he coughed lightly and asked Yongan tentatively.
"Little Master, I don't know if it's inconvenient for me to wait here to go in and pay homage?"
After hearing this, Yong'an hurriedly pushed open the door of the water and land hall and responded politely to the Spring Pavilion.
"Why not, donor, please."
We followed Yong'an into the water and land hall, and found that although the hall was dilapidated, it was not difficult to see that the decorations in it were quite attentive.
In the middle of the main hall, enshrine three Buddha statues of Virujana Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, the Buddha statue is placed under the offering table, there are incense lanterns, candles, fruit offerings, four long program platforms are placed in front of the table, copper chimes, drums, cymbals, handbells and other things are placed on the desk, respectively, the main Dharma, the main table, the sub-table, and the four people who are using the main Dharma in the water and land puja.
On the other side of the square platform, there is an incense burner of such height, look at the handwriting on the stove, it should be on behalf of the water and land puja in the big altar, the Fahua altar, the Huayan altar, the Lengyan altar, the pure land altar and the altar of the scriptures, these six outer altars, although the layout is relatively simple, but the overall look of the inner altar and the outer altar are readily available, but there is quite a bit of the charm of the puja.
"Little Master, since this hall has a long history, it is a pity to abandon it, so let's wait a few days, I will let the construction people come to your temple, and we will start repairing this water and land hall?"
Chunting walked around the hall and made his own suggestions to Yong'an.
"Donor, although your intentions are good, you want to repair and preserve this historic hall, but although this water and land hall is a useless place, it has been damaged a lot, and it must cost a lot to renovate it, isn't it a bit of a waste?"
"Little Master is in the picture, money is something outside the body, since I have decided to come here to make a vow, naturally it is not a matter of coping, just do what I say."
"Amitabha, donor is of great goodness."
Yongan saw that Chunting was resolute, so he didn't say more, after all, it was this Huanghua Temple that benefited, how could he have an opinion.
Seeing this, Chun Ting walked out of this water and land hall, he looked back at the hall at the gate of the hall, and made the final decision categorically.
"Then it's decided that little master, we will bother here for a few days, and when the construction people come here, we will start repairing the water and land hall!" Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Guanshan Chronicle Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
