On the land of China, the ancestors of mountains originated from Kunlun, and the water source of rivers originated from stars. Mountains, rivers, oceans and lakes are all over the world, with ups and downs, changes such as Tai Chi and different shapes. The four sacred places of the Five Mountains are guarded by gods, so the landscape, geography and humanities of China are very rich and wonderful. This article will introduce Jizu Mountain in Dali, Yunnan.
In ancient times, Jizu Mountain was called Qingdian Mountain. When you climb to the top of the mountain, you can look at Cangshan Mountain and Erhai Lake in the west. Jizu Mountain is located in Yundian, connecting the three states and controlling Xifan. On a cliff called Snow Mountain, it is said that the Buddha practiced penance from generation to generation, so the local flowers and trees, even the rocks, smelled of sandalwood. Jizu Mountain, which stretches for 500 miles, has amazing scenery, comparable to Emei, Jiuhua, Tiantai and Yandang Mountain.
There are poems praising yue:
"Hanging in the sky, the sky is open and the sky is boundless; Yushan people are old, and the cranes at sea should return.
Xuefeng now supports a fist stone in the west, and two waters float in the east for a drink; It's neither wild nor quiet. Help me get on a few levels. "
In ancient times, Yunnan belonged to Tianzhu, an ancient country in the western regions, and has belonged to China since the Western Han Dynasty. In the past, the Central Plains dynasty could not reach Yunnan, so the local customs were very tough and ignorant. Since Sakyamuni Ye settled in Jizu Mountain, spreading Buddhism, folk customs gradually changed, people sprouted good thoughts, worshiped Buddhism, and tens of thousands of monks burned incense and scattered flowers to support the gods and buddhas.
Southern Yunnan believed in Buddhism earlier than the Central Plains. Local villagers and aborigines are often not afraid of the king's law, but when it comes to karma and other things, they will be honest immediately and dare not talk nonsense in front of the Buddha. Because of faith, people's self-discipline, the wind of worshipping faith is helpful to the emperor's education and the society has benefited a lot.
Consistent with each other
At the Lingshan meeting of Sakyamuni Buddha, the Six Brahma Kings presented golden Polo flowers to the Buddha. When Sakyamuni Buddha ascended the throne, he waved flowers and smiled at the public. At that time, all the people present didn't understand the meaning of Buddha, and they were all waiting silently. Only Sakyamuni broke his face and smiled. Buddha said that his dharma is exquisite and will not be passed on to future generations. Sakyamuni Buddha saw that in the last days of Buddhism, there would be a demon son and a demon grandson, who would be clothed in cassock and bring trouble to Buddhism. Only the method of turning the wheel to the holy king can keep the mass practice from being divorced from the secular world. He specially instructed Dayejia to go to Jizu Mountain in Middle Earth to treat Maitreya and hand over the gold cassock. So Mahayana came to Jizu Mountain and settled in China. It was not until Maitreya was born that Sakyamuni Buddha's entrustment was completed.

There are hundreds of Longtan and Lingquan in Jizu Mountain. Legend has it that when Sakya left in time, 72 dragons accompanied him to protect the law. Therefore, there are many dragons in Jizu Mountain. They often have some miracles, but they never hurt the local people.
Compilation of mountain records
At the end of the Ming Dynasty, after Zhang, an anti-Ming general, died in battle, the Ministry and Li Dingguo retreated to Guizhou. After Qian Bangju recovered Zunyi, Li Yong appointed him as the governor of Guizhou. In the fifth year of Li Yong (165 1), Sun Kewang claimed to be the King of Qin, forcing him to give an official position to Qian Bangju, who was loyal to Nanming, and refused to accept his resignation. In order to avoid Sun Kewang's entanglement, Qian Bangju retired from his hometown and lived in a building. Sun Kewang sent someone to summon him with a knife 13 times, but Bangmao insisted on being unmoved and finally decided to cut his hair and become a monk, calling himself a "big mistake".
Cao, the Qing military attache, was ordered to inspect Dali, Yunnan, and came to Jizu Mountain. He asked the monk to read the book, but the monk saidno. Cao was surprised. Jizu Mountain is the Dojo of everyone, and it is also called Wutai, Emei, Putuo and Jiuhua. How can such a resort lack mountain records? Scholars and righteous people who come here in the future are at a loss. Therefore, Cao led the monks to visit the great scholar in Jiangdong, who lived here to avoid the disasters in the world.
Cao organized the scribes to visit the wonders of Buddha, the wonders of mountains and rivers, the figures in the temple, poems and songs, and classified them as moistening algae. They explored caves in the mountains, tried their best to explore wherever they went, collected anecdotes and allusions everywhere, and finally completed the ten-volume Ji Zu Shan Zhi.
After editing, Cao said that the reading of mountain records by future generations can trigger their talents, make the imagination feel comfortable with their temperament, and also make the practitioners eliminate their thoughts on secular life.
Elephants are hanging in the sky.
The big mistake monk said that he used to read Shangshu, and every time he read Gong Yu, he found that the distinction between local customs and local products must start from the border areas where mountains and rivers originated. A group of wizards in the Tang Dynasty were proficient in astronomical star observation. He took mountains and rivers as the boundary and observed the influence between astronomy and humanities. Judging the weather of the stars in the sky by the arrangement of mountains and rivers can also observe the disaster of national transportation and the rise and fall of national politics and civil affairs.
The big mistake monk told an example. Wang Dayu Shengde Houlong was given a golden bamboo book and a jade book by the gods when he was harnessing the water in Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue. Dayu began to understand mountains and rivers, arts and sciences, and the earth's meridians, so he split mountains with divine power, laid a grand plan for Kyushu, modified canals, and nourished the land of China reasonably, and ordered Boyi to compile the Classic of Mountains and Seas and collect it on the Baoshan in Dongting.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a nursery rhyme in the West Sea of Sang Wu:
"The prince traveled the lake. Rowen lives in seclusion in Zhangrenshan.
Going north to Baoshan is stealing Shu books from Dongting.
It's hard to relax. This article has been circulated for 16 years.
If you are forced to go abroad. "("Ancient Proverbs ")
During the Spring and Autumn Period, He Lv, King of Wu, went out to enjoy the scenery of Taihu Lake. Mr. Rowen, a hermit who lives in seclusion in the mountains, boarded the Baoshan Mountain in Taihu Lake and entered Xu Ling, where Lingbao Five Elephants were hidden, to steal the golden slips and jade books of King Dayu. All along, important written records between heaven and earth cannot be easily opened and leaked. There are 160 days for nursery rhymes to reach Tomb-Sweeping Day from the solstice of winter, which means that all the treasures and spells in the world will be circulated for a long time until Tomb-Sweeping Day. If the treasure book is forcibly taken out, the monarch will lose his land.
King Dayu decides Kyushu, and the division where Kyushu is located corresponds to the stars in the sky. No matter whether the harvest is good or bad, the rise and fall of the national government can be predicted by the astronomical phenomena falling from the sky. People on the earth and people in the sky reflect each other.
Jizu Mountain, which stretches for 500 miles, accounts for one tenth of Dali and one percent of Yunnan. This tiny place corresponds to the stars in the sky in the eyes of astrologers. The astrology mentioned by ancient astronomers symbolizes the officials of the DPRK, the people, and the specific mountains and rivers in the wild.
Master Tang and his party said, "The elephant hangs in the sky and originates from the ground.". In fact, its essence corresponds to the earth. Yunnan has a vast territory, and Jizu Mountain is located in the northwest, corresponding to the well and ghost of Suzaku in Tiannan.
Thousands of years of doubts, lingering singing
Jizu Mountain is famous all over the world and enjoys a good reputation in ancient and modern times. Scholars, Zen monks and Taoist priests of past dynasties climbed Jizu Mountain, but when they saw the wonders of Jizu Mountain, the peaks were arranged in disorder. Literati often write travel notes with the brushwork of Liuzhou, and sing with Du Fu's romantic love, which is always extraordinary.
Big mistake monk chanting JiZuShan yue:
"The Japanese sent Yue Zhen to the south of Xinjiang, and the ridge cut three pressures on Cangshan; The first gate in China is high meditation, and the grass stream is a drop of water.
Suzo Tokyo has a clear division of labor, and the situation is controlled by Xifan. Strange wins can't be explored for a thousand years, and the peaks fly by. "
The history of the Qing Dynasty chanted:
"The secluded rock valley is full of Zen, and the bamboo ploughing is long and loose; Two waters surround the lake outside the ridge, and half of them control Binchuan in the air.
There is no sign of apes and cranes in the deep mountains and forests, and the ancient caves do not remember the years; The most is the dream of Xiao Zhong diners, having an affair with several people here. "
Later generations traveled to Jizushan, and people from outside the sky came with sticks. They were quiet and enlightened, and there were also feelings of literati writing calligraphy, dancing and writing ink, which often reminded people of chic and tranquility.
