The origin of the shroud The shroud of Ganlong is naturally not an ordinary cloth, and the things used by the royal family are not bad at all. But the origin of the shroud of Ganlong may not be as good as that of several emperors. This shroud is actually a Tathagata quilt, which was given to Gan Long by the living Buddha of Tibet as a tribute for his 80th birthday and opened by several tantric masters. This is a quilt blessed by Master. It is tailor-made for Gan Long and unique in the world.
This Datura quilt is 2m long and1.38m wide. The length is customized according to Gan Long's height. Moreover, thousands of pearls and gems were sewn on it, and the quilt was covered with scriptures, Buddha spells, stupas and so on. The whole quilt is yellow, silk with Tibetan antelope velvet and roe deer velvet. These Tibetan antelope hairs are not any hairs on the Tibetan antelope, but just a little hairs under its tail. You can imagine how much Tibetan antelope hair will be used for such a big quilt. Everyone knows that Sun Dianying, a thief from Dongling, was the first person to break into the tomb of Qianlong. He stole a lot of good things from the grave. But Sun Dianying only took the gold and silver treasures from the tomb, and had no interest in cloth and silk. What did he do with silk from the dry shroud? Make yourself a quilt? It's a pity, but the jewels on the quilt were torn off and the really valuable quilt was thrown aside. This throw, 65438+300 million is gone. Later, when Elder Qing, who was guarding the imperial tomb, arrived, the good baby had been taken away, taken away by Elder Qing, then passed around and then flowed into the auction house. What about the auction? I didn't make a counter-offer, but I identified it as an ordinary cassock and sold it at an auction price of 80 thousand yuan, or even almost sold it. If a teacher surnamed Qin thinks it's unusual, he will spend 90 thousand to buy it, but it can be auctioned. Moreover, Qin's idea was later confirmed, and it was also worth the money. The historical value and technical value of the quilt; This sutra was used by the emperor. Even pestering the emperor is a matter for the royal family. Since ancient times, there have been no worthless things in the royal family, and even the urinals used by Cixi are valuable. Where is the shroud of Gan Long? Besides, it's not just a shroud.
The urinal that Datura used for Cixi is also valuable. Where is the shroud of Gan Long? Besides, it's not just a shroud. The reason why the quilt can appreciate twice in just five years is definitely not just because it is the property of Qianlong, but because Qianlong has a lot of property, but not many can achieve this value. The Buddhist scriptures on the Buddhist scriptures can be used for us to study Buddhism at that time, because the Buddhist scriptures belong to Buddhist sacred objects, which can turn people over and have certain historical value. What is the production process of Tathagata quilt? It is silk reeling technology, and the creation of silk reeling takes time and energy. The ornamental value and artistic value of silk reeling works can be compared with the calligraphy of famous paintings. After so many years, the words, patterns and Buddha characters on the quilt are still clearly visible, which shows that the manufacturing technology of the quilt is second to none. Therefore, this kind of Datura Sutra used as the shroud of Gan Long has great technical value, and it is also helpful for future generations to study the development of silk reeling technology at that time.
The background of the times is different from the first auction in 2005. At that time, people's understanding of cultural relics and protection value was not as good as it is now. Maybe that's when I found it. That's the quilt used by Qianlong, and it's a tribute to the living Buddha in Tibet. Its price can't reach the later 65.438+0.3 billion. After all, people's thoughts at that time were not as good as those of later generations. If the book is auctioned again now, its price is probably not as simple as 65.438+300 million yuan. Just entering the museum, the annual visit fee is a huge income, not to mention other values.
