Baopu Temple is located in the depths of the Himalayas. It faces south and is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Qinkang Hall is the center, with mountains and water on the back. There is a tall Buddha exhibition platform on the south bank and the north foot of the mountains. The main hall is The surrounding area is surrounded by four dharangs, and a magnificent ancient Buddhist temple is composed of sutra halls, shrines, monks' houses and lachangs, quiet rooms and other buildings.
In front of the entrance to the temple is a large square. The incense is not strong here, only a few pilgrims are there to express their sincere respect to the Buddha with five-body salute.
Li Muye and his group of five came here. Professor Harrison revisited his old place. With a lot of emotion, he led Brother Xiaoye and An Yiru to introduce the situation in the temple while walking. Bai Qi He Elai didn't have much interest in these history and culture. Seeing that there was no excitement, they told Li Muye to go back to the camp. The two monkey cubs were fascinated by the sea Dongqing. Qi Rulong promised that they would do their best to get it and hand it over to the two. Now they have seen initial results. Both brothers are waiting to ride the condor and fly in the sky. .
In the center of the square stands a stone stele. Harrison said that the stele was erected in the ninth century during the Dezan period of Chi Zu. The inscription said: “The temple was built on the riverside of Duilong and the place where the Three Treasures rested.” ·The Jiangpu Temple built by Cai Bangda Sanyeduo was destroyed as early as when Rangdama killed the law, but the ancient Tibetan inscriptions on the stone tablet of the temple were completely preserved and moved to the temple. Now this precious cultural relic has become a rare and important historical material for studying the politics, economy, religion, and culture of the Tubo period.
Harrison has done a lot of research on the religious culture in the rim of the Himalayas. This old man is strong and sturdy. Although he looks a little old with a white beard, he actually has the same physical strength as a young man. He practiced here in his early years, so he is very familiar with the connotation of this temple and the surrounding environment.
Li Muye’s finding of this place was not entirely under the influence of Old Harry. It was also because Xiaoye accidentally found a notebook from many years ago when he was sorting out the relics of the second sister Chen. This practice and found the secret key to open the shrine.
Go through the square and climb up to the twenty-four stone steps. There is a bright corridor with six pillars. Entering from the Ming Corridor is the main building of Baopu Temple, the Qinkang Hall. It is three stories high and has a square layout. It is composed of scripture halls and Buddhist halls. A first floor is raised in the center of the Jingtang, with an exaggerated high open skylight for lighting. This is the place where the monks of the whole temple gather and chant sutras. The scripture hall is richly decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and the curtains are intertwined with colorful colors; the walls are painted with sixteen arhats and other murals.
Li Muye imagined that his mother came here alone, after suffering the pain of losing her husband and children one after another, looking for the home of her soul here. How much inner suffering did she endure to survive that difficult time
This place lies between the border buffer zone between the Republic of India, India and Bhutan. Within a hundred miles, there are only a few Tibetan villages. In order to avoid friction, the three parties have tacitly chosen a vague method to define the ownership of this area. . In short, the three countries all believe that this is their own territory, and none of them has sent troops to this area to formally and openly exercise their sovereignty.
There are two white towers on the west side of the temple: the front tower is a square tower with an aquarium-shaped tower above; the back tower has a square base and tower body, with a simple shape, and a total of seven-level buddhist temples. The former is a resting place for the souls of the great monks of the past dynasties, and the latter is a place where the monks in the temple devote themselves to practice. The general practice time is three years, three months and three days. During the cultivation period, they are not allowed to go out, nor can they come into contact with anyone outside. Their food is passed in through a window.
Harrison practiced here for a short time, because he could not bear the feelings of it, and was kicked out of the temple after deliberately breaking the rules and precepts. He introduced that this temple is self-sufficient, so it hardly interacts with the outside world. He used a book of Dainichi Propaganda Sutra obtained from an expedition in exchange for the opportunity to practice here. Sister Chen also mentioned this place of practice in her notes, but her mother is much better than Harrison. She used to climb to the top of the seventh-level Buddha in three years.
Politics and religion in Tibetan areas are often inseparable. The Black Hat Tantra in history also had a glorious era that belonged to them.
Legend has it that there is a black hat made by millions of dakinis using the hair of many believers in the temple. In fact, the real black hat was presented by Mongolian Great Khan Mengge with a gold-rimmed black crown at the time of the Second Living Buddha. Since then, this black hat has become a symbol of the inheritance of this living Buddha, and it has been passed down from generation to generation. Whenever the sitting ceremony of the reincarnated living Buddha and major Buddhist activities are held, the living Buddha who inherits this inheritance must wear this black hat to show The black hat is the dignity of the Tantric Living Buddha.
Li Muye didn't have much interest in these historical anecdotes, he was looking at the magic country treasure mentioned in his mother's notes.
Second sister Chen said that the seventh floor of this ascension tower is densely covered with ancient Tibetan scripts that were engraved by someone who did not know what year, month, and who. The key to the Dharma of Consummation. The so-called Devil Kingdom originated from the Tibetan epic King Gesar, which tells the myths and legends that happened in Tibetan areas in ancient times. At this time, the Kalachakra Dzogchen law is the method left by the gods to open the gods.
Professor Harrison believes that there was a period of great flood on the earth more than 10,000 years ago. Before the flood receded, only a handful of land could allow humans to survive. Therefore, all modern civilizations originated in the present plateau. Naturally, the mysteries of prehistoric civilization are also hidden under this magical land.
The plateau is not generally recognized as a livable place, but the scientific community has found sites of prehistoric human activities in plateau areas around the world.
Harrison assumed that the cause of the Great Flood was war. The ancients who survived many years ago founded the country here, and retained some of the technology and cultivation culture of prehistoric civilization. Some elites realized that these technologies would cause great damage to the world, so they Preserving these technical seals, they assigned a small number of people to leave the plateau along with the receding floodwaters with their new-born human descendants, and go to a place more suitable for humans to thrive and live.
At that time, the new humans were ignorant, and a small number of people were unable to tell the secrets of the civilization of their home country due to various factors, so they could only selectively impart some non-taboo technologies and civilizations, and let the new humans ponder and evolve themselves. In this process, those few people gradually died out. In the first time, new humans had to rely on the limited skills they left behind to fight against nature. Naturally, it was difficult to survive, and it was difficult to have time and leisure to explore the plateau ancestors. Mystery, so the plateau has become the legendary place where the heaven and the devil are fighting.
As the level of civilization of the new humans has increased and the productivity has gradually developed, some people have been liberated from heavy production activities, and they have begun to delve into the few words left by those few people that day, in order to introduce a very small number of prehistoric civilization technologies. At the same time, while the part of the people who stayed on the plateau was old and withered, the kingdom of God they had was inevitably going to decline. Those technologies and civilizations that were sealed by them might be buried under this land. , Or somewhere hidden in the depths of the old forest.
Harrison has a more mysterious speculation. If God created prehistoric humans, and humans reached or reached the realm of God in the evolution of civilization, they would turn against God under the control of the hell dragon. Just like in myths and legends, the god king multiplied the gods, but the powerful gods rebelled against the god king. So God activated the restart device that was specially reserved when designing this world, and destroyed the prehistoric civilization with the flood. Then, the human elite realized that betraying God was a mistake, and that science and technology and evolutionary practices are taboos, so they decided to devoutly believe in God and seal all taboos.
Astronomy, engineering technology, witchcraft, physique, and all technologies that may guide human beings to evolve toward God have been sealed for a long time. Until the first industrial revolution. Suddenly many epoch-making great scientists were born in this world. Harrison said that this is probably the will of God, because in that dark age, black magic is about to control Europe, witchcraft and astrology are rampant, the shark tribe appears in the image of the dark dragon, and their biochemical technology proliferates leading to werewolves and werewolves. Vampire zombies frequently appeared and ruled the night. In the East, dragon worship has become the mainstream ideology, and the belief in destiny makes people willing to be obscured and trust destiny instead of pursuing evolution.
Although all these statements are only his personal speculation, they seem to have found the correct answers to many historical puzzles. For example, before the Industrial Revolution, why did human beings stay in place after thousands of years of obscurity? And why are there legends about vampire zombies all over the world? During World War II, why did Schroeder send people to the Himalayas to find the mysteries of the axis world
Li Muye didn't have much interest in these whimsical ideas of the old Harry, but faintly hoped that his speculation could be somewhat true, such as the part of prehistoric civilization hidden in the plateau. Brother Ono's current spiritual cultivation has reached a bottleneck stage, even Bai Wuxia can't help him find the right way to get to the next level. The Flawless Witch believed that this was the limit of talent, and it was already the limit for Li Muye's talent to reach this point.
She suggested that Brother Xiaoye go directly to Lei Yiming, an authority in the field of nanotechnology, and maybe find a solution. Li Muye rejected this proposal in his heart. If you can tell the uncontrollable outsider this big secret of yourself, it would be more reliable to find Duke Long directly.
Li Muye didn't take Bai Wuxia's innate theory seriously. As a person who has died twice, in the eyes of Brother Xiaoye, there is no such thing as impossible in this world. It is said that the son, Xiaomum, and the second sister Chen's talents are not high, but in the end she has cultivated to a realm of innocence. Since my mother can do things, why can't I
Li Muye is not sure whether Kalachakra Dzogchen can solve his own problems, but he believes that his mother will protect himself in the dark. Deep in the dungeon that night, he dreamed of the scene when his mother left. That dream is so real, Xiaoye believes that it is the enlightenment left to him by his mother's final spiritual will. He wants to follow in the footsteps of Sister Chen to find all the truth about her departure... (End of this chapter)
