　　It is said that one night in AD 67, Emperor Liu Zhuang of the Han and Mingdynasties had a dream of an immortal with a golden body surrounded by light,flying from afar and landing in front of the imperial palace. Emperor Hanmingwas very happy. The next day when he went to court, he told his dream to hisministers and asked them what was sacred.

He can fly in theillusion and radiate light all over his body. The emperor, you may dream ofBuddha!" so the emperor of the Han and Ming sent envoys Qin Jing, Wang Zun andother 13 people to the western regions to pray for Buddhism. Three years later,they returned to Luoyang with two Indian monks, jayamotong and zhufalan. Theybrought back a number of sutras and Buddha statues and began to translate someof them.

　　At 3:30 in the afternoon, our family arrived at the Baima Temple ForestPark. The tall and straight trees swarmed together. The mountain roads werewinding like Wolong. There were numerous amusement parks like wild geese. Thewater level of the lake was as gentle as a mirror

　　After we get off the bus, we first go to climb the mountain. There arestairs one by one, winding mountain roads, and yearning tree lined pathsEverything is so tempting.

　　Climbing began, I step by step, a section of the stairs. Sometimes happy,sometimes jumping; sometimes chasing my sister quickly, sometimes sitting in thepavilion enjoying the pastoral rest, here is really beautiful, countless greenforests, countless silver lakes, it is so desirable.

　　When I saw the ants climbing the mountain, I couldn't help but stop forfear of hurting them; when I met the hare, I held my breath for fear of scaringhim away; when I met the birds, I didn't hurt her, because I knew it would behappy only when it was free. I can't count how many roads, how many stairs, howmany steps I took; I can't count how many trees, how many lakes, how manyscenery I saw.

　　One of the most influential is the historical allusion "white horse pullingrein". It tells about a poor boy who cut firewood for the old rich man becauseof his poor family. One winter, when the boy finished cutting firewood, he sawan old man on his way home suffering from cold. He forgot the old rich man'scruel intention to light a fire to keep the old man warm, and put some water inthe river to make the old man drink, The old man was very grateful to him, so hegave him a paper horse and told him that if the paper horse ate the millennialcereal grass, it would become a magic horse. When the young man came home,suddenly the wind was strong and there was a snowstorm all night. The next day,despite the storm, the rich man forced the boy to go into the mountain tocollect firewood. The young man thought of the paper horse hidden in his arms,but where to find the millennial cereal grass? Suddenly, he thought that amillennium old Buddha statue had been destroyed in the White Horse Temple on themountain. He clearly remembered that the skeleton of the Buddha statue was madeof cereal grass, so he immediately came to the temple and took out a cerealgrass from the Buddha statue. The paper horse in his arms opened his mouth andswallowed it, shaking his head and tail, and suddenly became a snow-white steed.He went into the mountain to carry charcoal for the youth. When the rich manlearned about it, he wanted to take the god horse for himself, so he conspiredwith his servants to steal the horse before midnight, and was kicked to theground by the white horse. The boy wakes up from his sleep, jumps on his horse'sback and flies away with the white horse. The horse bell is pulled down by therich man and scattered all over the ground. It turns into a ringing stone. Aridge dragged by the white horse's reins is still barren. This is the origin ofmalingshi and the story of "white horse pulling rein", one of the four famousscenic spots in Jincheng.

　　I've read this story many times, and I understand the general meaningaccording to the pictures. I dare not say that I memorized it, but I can saythat I absolutely understand the general meaning, because I know it's a storythat benefits me all my life.

　　Dear friends, the next stop we visit today is Baima temple, which is knownas "the first ancient temple in China". Baima temple is located about 12kilometers east of Luoyang City, with a history of more than 1900 years. Baimatemple was founded in 68 A.D. in the 11th year of Yongping in the Eastern HanDynasty. It is the first temple founded by the government after Buddhism wasintroduced into China. It is the first voice for Buddhism originated from theSouth Asian subcontinent to survive and develop in the vast land of China. It ishonored as "ancestral court" and "source of interpretation" by the Buddhistcircles. "Zuting" is the courtyard of the patriarch, and "Shiyuan" is thebirthplace of Buddhism. It has played a positive role in the spread anddevelopment of Buddhism in China and in promoting the ideological and culturalexchanges between China and foreign countries.

　　When it comes to the White Horse Temple, I think you will have a clearerpicture of the white horse that monk Tang took Buddhist scriptures from. What Iwant to tell you is that it took 560 years earlier than monk Tang to takeBuddhist scriptures!

　　When it comes to "White Horse Temple", you will ask why it is called "WhiteHorse Temple" since it is not the horse of white dragon horse. First of all,let's introduce the word "Temple". The word "Si" originated from the "Si" ofHonglu temple, a diplomatic organization in feudal society, and later became thegeneral name of Chinese temples. In Baima temple, there is a story about Baimatuojing. One night in the seventh year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty,Liu Zhuang, the son of Liu Xiu, spent the night in Nangong. He dreamed that agolden man, who was six feet tall and shining on his head, came from the Westand flew around the palace. The next morning, Emperor Hanming summoned hisministers and told them the dream. The learned Fu Yi said: I heard that there isBuddha in the west, just as you dreamed. After hearing this, Emperor Mingbelieved it, so he sent more than ten people, including Cai Yin and Qin Jing, tothe western regions to seek Buddhist scriptures. CAI and Qin left Luoyang in 65AD and set foot on the road of "learning from the west". In the middle ofDayue's life (today's Afghan), he met with Indian eminent monks photographermoteng and zhufalan, and saw Buddhist scriptures and statues of Sakyamuni. Hesincerely invited the two eminent monks to go to China to promote Buddhism. In67 A.D., the two eminent monks were invited to carry the Buddha statues withwhite horses together with the envoys of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and theBuddhist scriptures returned to Luoyang, the capital of the country. The emperorof Han and Ming Dynasty was very happy to see it and was very polite to the twoeminent monks. He arranged for them to stay in Honglu temple, the officialoffice in charge of foreign affairs at that time. In 68 ad, the Ming emperorordered to build a temple in Luoyang, named "Baima Temple" in memory of Baimatuojing.

　　In 1961, the State Council announced Baima temple as the first batch ofnational key cultural relics protection units. In 1983, the State Councilannounced Baima temple as the national key Temple of Chinese Buddhism. In June20xx, Baima temple was designated as a national 4A scenic spot by the NationalTourism Administration.

　　Tourists, we are now in front of the Mountain Gate of Baima temple. The twowhite horses in front of the temple are in front of the tomb of Wei Xianxin, theFuma Duwei of the Song Dynasty. They are two excellent stone carvings of theSong Dynasty. Around 1935, when he was in charge of monk Dehao's reconstructionof Baima temple, he put them in front of the mountain gate. The mountain gate wesee was built in the Ming Dynasty and renovated in 1981. The word "Baima Temple"is the original Chinese Buddhist Association

　　It was inscribed by the president, Mr. Zhao Xiangchu. The three caves ofShanmen are called "three extrication gates", namely Wuzuo gate, Wuxiang gateand empty gate. Now, please follow me to Baima temple. There is a drum tower onmy left and a clock tower on my right.

　　Maitreya Buddha is sitting face to face. He is smiling. He holds cloth beltin his left hand and rosary beads in his right hand. It is vivid andinteresting. It is a statue of Ming Dynasty. What I want to tell you is that inthe Buddhist temples of the Han nationality in China, the first hall is usuallydedicated to Maitreya Buddha. When people enter the Buddhist temples, they firstsee this cheerful image, which makes people feel kind to Buddhism. The fourheavenly kings were worshipped around, holding one kingdom in the East, one eyein the west, one dragon in the south, and one year in the north. The fourheavenly kings mean that the wind and the rain are smooth. The four heavenlykings are clay sculptures of the Qing Dynasty. There are many pomegranate treeson the East and west sides of Tianwang hall. People say that "pomegranates inMay are as red as water", while pomegranates in Baima temple are white.

　　This northern clay statue Buddha is called "Dharma protector God" becauseit is Wei Tuo's heavenly general. After setting up Maitreya Buddha, it is facingSakyamuni Buddha in the Great Buddha Hall. It is a clay sculpture of the QingDynasty. It is carrying out the task of maintaining the preaching hall andforbidding the invasion of evil demons. In the fourth month of the lunarcalendar, the trees are full of crystal white pomegranates. It's really "maypomegranates are as white as snow"!

　　This is the end of the visit to Tianwang hall. Please follow me and visitthe second major Hall of Baima temple, the Great Buddha Hall. Friends, we areentering the Great Buddha Hall now.

There are seven statues in the center ofthe hall. One Buddha, two disciples and two Bodhisattvas provide for seven gods.Sakyamuni Buddha, the main Buddha, sits on the seat of Xumi, 2.4 meters high. Itis said that this is what he looks like when he does not speak. The characterson the chest of the Buddha indicate that the Buddha is "boundless". On the leftside of Sakyamuni is the eldest disciple motangjiaye. In this "speechlesssaying", only he understood the real intention of the Buddha, so he burst into asmile. Later, he was promoted as one of the top ten disciples of Sakyamuni.Chinese Zen Buddhism recommended him as the first generation of patriarch toinherit Buddhism in India. On the other side is Ananda, the eldest disciple. Heis well-known and knowledgeable, and is known as "the most knowledgeable".Chinese Zen Buddhism recommends him as the second generation of patriarch whoinherits Buddhism in India. On the left side of JIAYE is Manjusri Bodhisattva,and on the right side is Prajna Sutra, which is famous for its profoundknowledge and wisdom. On the right side of Ananda is Puxian Bodhisattva, holdingRuyi hook. Deyang is a perfect person who has made great contributions to heavenand earth, and is famous for "making wishes". Sakyamuni, Manjusri and PuxianBodhisattvas are called "three sages of Sakyamuni".

It is known as the "ancestral court" and "source of interpretation" ofChinese Buddhism. It has a history of more than 1900 years. The existing sitesand historic sites are preserved in yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are alarge number of Jiagan lacquered statues of the Yuan Dynasty, such as the thirdBuddha, the second general and the eighteen Arhats.

　　In 1961, Baima temple was announced as the first batch of national keycultural relics protection units by the State Council of the people's Republicof China. In 1983, it was designated by the State Council as the national keyTemple of Chinese Buddhism. In January 20xx, Baima temple was named as the firstbatch of AAAA scenic spots by the National Tourism Administration.

　　In the seventh year of Yongping in the Eastern Han Dynasty (A.D. 64),Emperor Liu Zhuang (the son of Liu Xiu) spent the night in Nangong. He dreamedthat a golden man, six feet tall and shining on his head, would come from theWest and fly around the palace. The next morning, Emperor Hanming told theministers about the dream. Doctor Fu Yi said, "there is a God in the west, whichis called Buddha, just as you dream.". After hearing this, Emperor Han and Mingsent more than ten ministers, such as Cai Yin and Qin Jing, to the westernregions to worship Buddhist scriptures and Dharma.

　　In the eighth year of Yongping (AD 65), Cai, Qin and others bid farewell tothe imperial capital and embarked on the journey of "learning from the west". InDayue Kingdom (from Afghanistan to Central Asia today), I met Indian eminentmonks, such as shemoteng and zhufalan, and met Buddhist sutras and white feltstatues of Sakyamuni Buddha. I sincerely ask the two eminent monks to go east toChina to preach Buddhism.

　　In the tenth year of Yongping (AD 67), two Indian eminent monks wereinvited to carry Buddhist scriptures and statues on white horses together withenvoys of the Eastern Han Dynasty to Luoyang. Emperor Hanming was very happy tosee the Buddhist scriptures and statues. He was very polite to the two eminentmonks. He personally received them and arranged for them to stay in Honglutemple, the official office in charge of foreign affairs at that time.

　　In the 11th year of Yongping (A.D. 68), the emperor of Han and Ming orderedthe construction of monasteries in the north of Sanli imperial road outsideXiyong gate in Luoyang. In memory of Baima tuojing, it was named "Baima Temple".The word "Si" originated from the word "Si" of "Honglu Temple", and later "Si"became a general term of Chinese temples. This is the first Chinese translationof Buddhist scriptures in China.

　　After taking photos of moteng and zhufalan, many Western eminent monks cameto Baima temple to translate Buddhist scriptures. In more than 150 years after68 A.D., 192 Buddhist scriptures, 395 volumes in total, were translated here.Baima temple has become the first Buddhist Scripture Translation Center inChina.

　　In the second year of Caowei Jiaping (A.D. 250), Tan kejialuo, an Indianmonk, came to Baima temple. At this time, Buddhism also entered the public fromthe deep palace. Later, tankojaro translated the first Buddhist commandment inChinese in Baima temple. At the same time, Tan Di, a monk of the Sabbath state,also translated Tan Wu De Jie Mo in Baima temple, which regulated theorganization and life of the monks. So far, the commandments and theconstitution of the monks' group have been completed, and a path of monasticpractice has been paved, which is the beginning of the commandments inChina.

　　In the fifth year of Ganlu (260 A.D.), a commandment ceremony was held inBaima temple, which is destined to be deeply engraved in the history of ChineseBuddhism. On this day, Zhu Shixing ascended the altar of abstinence inaccordance with the law of karma, knelt down in front of the Buddha, and becamethe first monk who formally received the bhikkhu commandment in Han China. Sincethen, the ancient Confucian tradition of "body hair skin, parents, dare notdamage" has been broken.

　　During the first 200 years of Buddhism's taking root and spreading inChina, the whole process is closely related to Baima temple. This is the productof China's first search for Dharma from the West. It is the residence of thefirst monks who came to China to preach and spread Dharma. The first ChineseBuddhist Scripture and Chinese Commandments were born here, and the firstChinese Buddhist monk was born In a word, Baima temple is closely linked withmany "firsts" of Chinese Buddhism, which makes it the real ancestor and sourceof Chinese Buddhism.
