Introduction of Tiantong Temple in Ningbo.
Look at the geographical advantages of the whole temple first. Tongchan Temple, located in Taibai Peak, the main peak of Taibai Mountain, is a relic of Tiantai Mountain. It starts from Xingfeng in Tiantai Mountain, extends to Yinzhou through Ninghai and Fenghua, reaches Jin 'e Mountain and Fuquan Mountain, rises to the larger Songling Mountain, and then rises to the coast of the East China Sea.
At the foot of Taibai Peak, there is a alms bowl peak as a barrier for the whole temple. The top of the bowl is round and extends downward like a bowl. The temple was built under the Bowl Bowl Peak and extended outward.
On the left of the temple are Zhongfeng and Dongfeng, and on the west are Yuqi Peak and Linglong Rock Mountain. If you look down from the air, the mountains seem to surround a Maitreya Buddha; Tiantong Temple is located on the navel of Maitreya Buddha.
This is the feng shui pattern that old people often say, "two mountains are sandwiched by a bar, and generations are the pillars." A generation of famous teachers in Tianchan Temple also confirmed this sentence.
Look at the long-term feng shui of Tiantong Temple. Tiantong Temple faces south, and the main peak of Taibai Mountain hangs alone. To the east, you can see the sunrise in the East China Sea, to the west, you can see the smoke and dust in Yongcheng, and to the south, you can enjoy the sparkling of thousands of lakes.
The area of East Lake is equivalent to four West Lakes. The so-called "mountain behind, water in front" is indeed a rare big pattern.
However, although the overall feng shui of Tiantong Temple is good, it has one drawback, that is, the peak in the west is higher than that in the east, referring to the white tiger in the west and the dragon in the east. Generally speaking, the green dragon should be winding and supple, and the white tiger should be slow, even more supple than the green dragon. This is the only good feng shui.
The mountain in the west of Tiantong Temple is higher than the mountain in the east, which is a taboo in geomantic omen: if you are not afraid of Qinglong, you are afraid of the white tiger sticking out. According to the old monk, Tiantong Temple does not build a drum tower, but only a bell tower, and "the bell tower weighs 15 thousand Jin and bells can be heard ten miles away" is to make up for this shortcoming.
