Where is Dabei Temple in Haicheng? Is there anything special about it?

China has had a tradition of worshiping Buddha since ancient times. This tradition can be said to have been spread. In the past hundred years, some emperors would even build their own unique royal temple. Now, our country's national conditions have improved, and many temples are no longer as pure as before, and some have even become particularly commercialized.

When traveling to temples, we will find that tourists are often charged a variety of high fees. This makes us feel that Buddhism is no longer a pure place. However, there is a temple in China that is completely different from what these people said. They do not do anything special, and they do not put a merit box and do not allow tourists to make special donations. What's more important is that these monks are only allowed to eat one meal a day, never more. So, where is this temple?

This temple is actually Dabei Temple in Haicheng, located in Liaoning Province, our country. It is located in a mountain col because it is surrounded by mountains and the scenery is very beautiful. And when you stand in the temple, you will feel the solemn and solemn feeling of a thousand-year-old temple. And, more importantly, we will see a huge reservoir in front of the temple. Yes, this reservoir is used to release tourists.

This temple looks gray due to its age. Although it is not brilliant at all, it gives people a very simple feeling. The overall area of ????the temple is very large. During the tour, we walked around the entire temple and we would not see any merit boxes. Not only is there no place to donate money, we saw many slogans here, reminding tourists that "Donating money in the temple is prohibited."

There are nearly 100 monks living in this temple. Monks are very disciplined and have very good consciousness. Among them, there is an important rule of life in the temple, which means "monks are not allowed to eat anything or drink tea in the afternoon," and other express regulations.

So, some people may ask, since they are not allowed to sell tickets and do not accept donations, how do these monks live? Their lifestyle is also very simple. After August 15th every year, they will go out together to pray for alms. This kind of alms usually lasts for 15 days, and each time they walk about 300 kilometers. It is reported that this started in 1995. After the tradition, it still continues to this day.

The style of Dabei Temple is indeed very rigorous, which is completely different from other temples. What do your friends think of this unique temple? The editor feels that this is a real Buddhist realm. In today's society, temples have become so serious about fame and wealth, but Dabei Temple still maintains such a pure heart, which is really awe-inspiring. What do you think of Dabei Temple? Friends are welcome to leave messages and interact. Come and talk about the temples you saw during your travels!

Haicheng Dabei Temple

The thousand-year-old Dabei Temple is located in a mountain valley in Maoqi Town, Haicheng City, Liaoning Province. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides. The temple has blue bricks and gray tiles, and there are morning bells and evening drums. A place of quiet practice is a pure land in the world.

Master Miaoxiang, the abbot of Dabei Temple, leads a group of monks to follow the Buddhist path and seek transformation from above to below.

Dabei Temple has the following eight precepts:

1. Keep the precept not to catch money. Monks are not allowed to store or use money, nor are they allowed to accept monetary offerings. There are no merit boxes in temples and it is forbidden to put money.

2. Eat one meal a day. The monks do not eat after noon every day, and do not eat separately if they are not in attendance.

3. Walking to beg for food. Stay away from home, travel around the world, travel and practice meditation, teach and save people according to circumstances.

4. Do not accept the courtesy of monks from outsiders.

5. All donations should go to the abbot of the temple. The abbot shall allocate them according to needs.

Six and three, the mantle and mantle should never leave the body. The three clothes must be of bad color. Eighteen kinds of items are the items that monks must carry when they go to Toutu.

7. Don’t beg for alms or ask for help. Only when the mind does not cling to attachment can the mind die and the mind of the Tao arise.

8. Follow the teachings.

The above eight clear rules and precepts are the basic requirements for practicing and living in Dabei Temple, and are the practice guidelines that every monk must abide by throughout his life.

Dabei Temple is a true Buddhist temple. The temple has the mountain gate, the Heavenly King Hall, the Seven Buddha Hall, the Great Compassion Hall, the Medicine Master Hall, the Sutra Library, the Dharma Hall, the Zen Hall, the Buddhist Chanting Hall, the Guest Hall, the Zhaitang, and the Cloud Hall. Water hall, monk dormitory, etc. The Taoist temple adheres to the principle that men and women live without sexual intercourse, remain calm and undisturbed, and see their nature clearly.

The Taoist Temple of Dabei Temple is compassionate and compassionate, and all living beings in the world are equal. The drums used in the temple are made of synthetic materials and do not use animal skins. No supplies or food containing animal ingredients or food with animal images will be used in the dojo.

Good men and women from all over the world bathe in the light of Buddha here and enjoy hearing the Dharma.

Dabei Temple does not have tickets, does not engage in tourism, and the temple does not have any business operations.

Buddhist scriptures, Buddha statues and other magical treasures are available for free.

In today's materialistic society, there is still such a refreshing place where even the Buddha would hold flowers and smile.

I hope that the "Great Compassion Temple" in Haicheng will always inherit the spirit of Buddhism, practice all good deeds, and refrain from doing any evil; take the precepts as a teacher, gradually become enlightened; and forever preserve the pure land of Buddhism.

Why was the Dabei Temple in Haicheng, Liaoning closed?

Because of fire protection problems, it was closed within a time limit for rectification. The Dabei Ancient Temple has gone through thousands of years. It is inevitable that the building will be damaged, there are safety hazards, and the fire protection facilities cannot meet today's fire safety standards. The relevant departments have ordered rectification within a time limit in accordance with the current standards. Special rectification of the Dabei Ancient Temple is carried out according to the actual needs of the work. , a special working group was set up to be responsible for the repatriation of monks, animals and relocation of items.

Basic information and temple history of Dabei Temple

Dabei Temple is located in a mountain depression in Maoqi Town, Haicheng City, Liaoning Province. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides. There is a Fangsheng Reservoir in front of the mountain gate. The environment Quiet and quiet, a place for quiet practice. Dabei Temple, close to the mountains, has begun to take shape. It has built the mountain gate, Tianwang Hall, Seven Buddha Hall, Dabei Hall, Pharmacist Hall, Sutra Collection Building, Dharma Hall, Zen Hall, Buddha Chanting Hall, Guest Hall, Zhaitang, Yunshui Hall, Monk Hall, etc. Liao et al.

The main body of the Dabei Temple is mainly in gray tones, with blue bricks and gray tiles. There are no bright colors. It is calm and solemn. It was built for spiritual practice and reflects the principles of spiritual practice. Dabei Temple was originally a Haicheng-level cultural relic protection unit and an ancient temple. Its original site was located on the southern slope of Tangwang Mountain, Maoqi Town, Haicheng City. The year of its construction is unknown. According to existing inscriptions and historical records, it was repaired many times in the 28th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty and the first year of Tongzhi reign.

In the eighth year of Guangxu's reign, the surrounding eight villages elected Yongzhang, a fifth-grade title Gongshengqu, as president. He initiated the initiative to raise huge sums of money and build many more buildings, making the temple unprecedented in scale. Since then, the stone tablets of the Qing Dynasty have experienced wars and social upheaval. The monks were expelled and there was no abbot. Later, during the Cultural Revolution, the temple fell into disrepair and was only guarded by an elderly believer.

In 1993, in order to implement religious policies, meet the needs of local believers, and exploit Tangwangshan silica sand resources, with the approval of the Religious Affairs Department of Anshan City (now the Religious Affairs Bureau), the entire Dabei Temple was moved to Maoqi, Haicheng City Zhongcaojiabao Village, a mountain col (Cigou reconstruction.

What is the difference between Dabei Temple in Haicheng and Dabei Ancient Temple?

The difference between Dabei Temple in Haicheng and Dabei Ancient Temple is: Dabei The temple is a formal temple, and the Dabei Ancient Temple is a grove of laymen.

The specific differences between the Dabei Temple in Haicheng and the Dabei Ancient Temple:

All the monks of the Dabei Temple in Haicheng, Liaoning, do not agree. The precept of catching money is to eat once a day. The monks get up at 2 o'clock in the morning, recite the Shurangama Mantra 10 times, recite the precepts for 2 hours in the afternoon, and only rest for 4 hours a day. They start walking every year on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. . Asking for alms during the trip. The monastery has strict rules and the monks are dignified. There is no merit box in Dabei Temple. There are two Buddhist services every month (Chaobu on the 14th and Buddha worship on the 15th), and there is no charge. .

Every year on the eighth day of April and the fifteenth day of July, all monks in Dabei Temple in Haicheng, Liaoning, must memorize the Heart Sutra and the Great Compassion Mantra. Adhere to the money precept and eat one meal a day. There is no merit box in the temple, and there are two Buddhist services every month (14 Chaoba and 15 Pufo, no fees are charged.

Every year on April 8 and July 15 The monk must get up at 2 o'clock in the morning, recite the Shurangama Mantra 10 times, recite the precepts for 2 hours in the afternoon, and have 4 hours of rest every day. . To maintain the Buddhist system, we start walking on August 15th every year. The monks are strict in their precepts and have great dignity!

The abbot of Dabei Ancient Temple is not a monk. It is said that there is no abbot or abbot, because the head of the family is not a monk, but a layman. His surname is Tan, and he is the Lin Chang of the lay community. Monks and nuns all obey the arrangements of the Lin Chang. I have not seen Tan Lin Chang in person, but I have only heard his voice. He is very kind. Very gentle. I heard that Mr. Tan has a daughter who is not young now. He and his wife are also very affectionate. He has devoted himself to Buddhism for many years and has achieved great attainments. He intends to become a monk.

Catch him. When he was about to become a monk, his wife was pregnant again (and later gave birth to a son). Naturally, it was not easy for him to become a monk at this time. However, he was very pious and eager to worship Buddha, so he decided to build a Buddhist grove. Naturally, the scale was small at first. Later, the four people were gradually moved by his sincerity, and the size of the lay community became larger and larger.

It was pouring rain when I went there for the second time, so I did some work during the break. From a rough observation, there were no less than two or three thousand people participating in the Buddhist ceremony. You can imagine the grand occasion when the weather is good. I think Tan Linchang has the style of Nichiren, the founder of Nichiren Buddhism, a large sect of Buddhism in Japan.

Generally, for Buddhist services in temples, the client pays a certain amount of money, and the monks and nuns chant extraordinary scriptures. Most of the clients are not very knowledgeable and do not know what the masters are chanting or know very little about it. Dabei Ancient Temple does not ask for money from anyone, and it is up to the victim to decide whether to pay or not.

What’s more important is that everyone who performs Buddhist services is given a copy of the "Zhongfeng Three Hours Lecture Song" (I don’t remember the name very accurately. The monks lead everyone to sing it sentence by sentence. After reading it, the Buddhist attainments and religious identity of some people who go there will of course gradually deepen, so I think Tan Lin has the bearing of an educator.

In each of the three Buddhist services, he started singing from Namo Amitabha. The melody is very slow. I feel like climbing a mountain. At first, it is a very gentle and flat slope, and it is easy to walk. Then gradually it changes to the four characters of Amitabha, and the rhythm becomes faster, as if the slope is getting steeper and the road is difficult to walk. When you recite Amitabha many times in one breath, the specific singing method is to recite the first A-character in the third tone, and the remaining A-characters in the fourth tone. If you look closely, it will look like you are on a steep slope that goes straight up and down, and the person above is pulling hard. The people below are pushing hard and helping the people in the middle to go up.

From a distance, chanting and chanting like this is like a sharp arrow shooting straight through the sky, passing through many realms at once, until everyone is there. When I was exhausted, my voice was hoarse, I had nothing to sing, and when I had nothing to go up to, the rhythm suddenly slowed down, and I chanted Namo Amitabha very gently for many times, as if I were climbing a mountain and finally reached the top.

Allusions to the Dabei Ancient Temple: According to legend, when Li Shimin, the king of the Tang Dynasty, led his troops to the east, he played chess with his general Xue Rengui on the top of this hill. There was a magical stone chessboard on the mountain, and the stone chess pieces could be played on it. I moved back and forth on the chessboard, but I couldn't get it off. There was a flat piece of land on the top of the mountain, which was called "Take Off the Boot Top". It was formed by the soil shaken off by King Tang when he took off his boots. There were also stones left by King Tang on the mountain. Pots and horse hoof prints. Later, people called this hill "Tangwang Mountain" and it has been passed down to this day. In recent decades, due to people quarrying here, these relics on the mountain no longer exist.

On the Sanhuang Mountain in the southeast of Tangwang Mountain, there used to be an ancient temple, the Tangwang Mountain Dabei Temple. According to legend, during the Eastern Expedition, the Tang King Li Shimin came to Tangwang Mountain. One day, the King of Tang dreamed of Guanyin, the Great Master of the South China Sea. The Bodhisattva enlightened him and said that the King of Tang escaped from the disaster due to the Bodhisattva's rescue. After the King of Tang returned to the dynasty, he ordered the temple to be rebuilt, and the Great Compassion Temple in Tangwang Mountain was built.
