Fozishan Town is located in the northwest of Tianmen City and belongs to the remnant vein of Dahongshan. The town governs 25 villages, 246 villagers' groups, with 38,700 people, and the cultivated land area is 5827 1 mu. It has a vast territory with a land area of 130 square kilometers. It has a long history. As early as 5,000 years ago, human beings lived there, which is one of the birthplaces of human beings in the Yangtze River Basin. Beautiful scenery, including Fozi Mountain, Jinbei Mountain and other 10 peaks, unrestrained and beautiful. Rich in human resources, there are more than 30 places of interest such as Buddhist Temple and Lu Yu Spring. With obvious economic characteristics, it has formed more than 40,000 mu of four agricultural plate bases of high-quality rice, high-quality fish, high-quality oil and high-quality fruit, as well as characteristic industrial groups focusing on tourism, building materials and agricultural and sideline products processing.
Tianmen Mountain: In Jianghan Plain of Mapingchuan, Tianmen Mountain rises from the ground. Tianmen Mountain is located 22 kilometers northwest of Jingling City, Tianmen City, Hubei Province. The mountain group consists of five peaks: Fozi Mountain, Jinbei Mountain, Tuanshan Mountain, Puchuan Mountain and Weilong Mountain, with an area of 93 1.9 hectares and an altitude of 192 meters. The whole mountain is east-west, facing south, with five mountains leaning against each other. It looks like jade, with beautiful scenery, lush forests, pleasant climate and convenient transportation. The feather pond under Fozi Mountain covers an area of about two hectares, with clear water, rippling blue waves and fish and shrimp swimming. On the top of Foshan, there are the remains of Buddhist temples, the throne of Sakyamuni Buddha and the treading moyu, the ancient moat on the mountainside, the Marshal Terrace on the southeast slope, the scenic spots Luzi Reading Room, Luyuquan, Luyuting and Luyu Temple, four scenic spots (Cha Sheng Lu Yu studied in Tianmen Mountain when he was young, and Zou Fuzi) lined up, as well as Han Guangwu's hand pillow hill and the legendary beautiful tiger cave in Weilong Mountain.
It is about 22km away from the northwest of Tianmen City, with the junction of Fozishan Town and jingshan county in the north. It is the only mountain group in Tianmen City-Tianmenshan Community. The remaining veins of Dahongshan stretch for thousands of miles and become the natural barrier of this town.
From a distance, Fozi Mountain, Jinbei Mountain, Tuanshan Mountain, Puchuan Mountain, Tianmen Mountain and Weilong Mountain are arranged in a "dou" shape from east to west. Shoot north like a bow and arrow, and shoot south like a Buddha. In fact, the real "Buddha's seat"-the throne of Moyu, is at the top of Fozi Mountain at an altitude of 173 meters. The highest point of Tianmenshan community is Weilongshan, with an altitude of 19 1 m.
The Buddha is beautiful and full of aura. It should be a treasure trove of geomantic omen, a holy land. As for whether the Buddha has been to China, the Buddhist community really has no opinion. I have done some research on this in the past. From some folklore and scattered written records, it is entirely possible for the Buddha to preach in China-the Buddha's footprints are all over Asia, and China, with its vast territory and rich resources, is adjacent to India, and its economy and culture are also very important in the world at that time. Will the Buddha ignore such an important country? But I haven't had time to make a detailed investigation on this problem. I told Tony my opinion, and told him that if my guess could be confirmed, it would be an epoch-making discovery for the Buddha to come to China and give a lecture in Foshan. My words inspired Tony, who immediately decided to do further investigation.
Foshan is located in the northwest of Tianmen City, Hubei Province, about two kilometers away from Fozishan Town. The south is bounded by the ridge, Tianmen and Jingshan. On the same day, Mr. Bie Bixiong, the manager, pointed to a mountain and told me that it was Foguang Mountain. When I looked over, I was immediately impressed by the momentum of Foguang Mountain. From far and near, Foguang Mountain stands on the vast land of the Central Plains, and its position is the Long Mai of the earth, which looks like a huge jade. It is no accident that a jade ruyi suddenly rises on such a plain. According to China's geomantic theory, the soil is dragon meat, the stone is keel and the vegetation is dragon forest; The flat Long Mai is marked by topography and current. Moreover, the whole Foguang Mountain is surrounded by dragons, noble, handsome and auspicious, and its shape and momentum are different from those I have seen elsewhere! It consists of five peaks: Zizi Mountain (Jinbei Mountain), tan shan Mountain, Huomen Mountain, Wohu Mountain and Weilong Mountain, which extend from east to west in a Wolong shape, with different steps, just like a big family (see attached figure). Among them, Children Mountain is the dragon head, Tanshan Mountain is the dragon claw, Huomen Mountain and Wohu Mountain are the dragon body, and Weilongshan is the dragon tail. The direction of the mountain is positive, circling clockwise from the starting point, which is also Yang Long. The situation of leading Tongshan depends on it, and there are many people around. Long Mai is sleek, sharp, beautiful, powerful, dignified, and heavy in form and spirit, which greatly leads the pack. The mountains are rolling like beads, the air is flowing, the trees are shaded, the branches are shaded, and the weather is myriad; There is a clear distinction between the subject and the object, showing a look of despair, concession and resignation. The ancients paid attention to the location with mountains and water at the back, with beautiful mountains and dragons, surrounded by hoses, spacious halls and water inlets. The ideal environment should be beautiful environment and good weather, especially water as the source of life. Water is a mountain and strength, and water is also the main fame. Where there are mountains, there are bones, and where there is water, there is life. The mountains and rivers of Foguang Mountain complement each other. Tang Ming is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the host and guest are congenial, and the situation is commensurate. Its cave field is a natural "lotus-shaped cave", just like the lotus throne of Buddha.
