After the three-year term of office of the abbot who broke the mountain in Guangfu Temple expired, "Emperor Wu of Jin was afraid of great tranquility, and the official departments of Bojing and Feng Gong were afraid of scholars' benevolence, and it was appropriate to ask the teacher to return to Shu." ("Zhang Xue Breaking the Mountain") At the request of laymen such as Feng, he broke the mountain and bid farewell to his teachers and friends in the south of the Yangtze River, and returned to Bashu by boat from Nanjing. He first lived in Guangji Temple in Wanxian County, Sichuan Province, and then collected the sorghum gentleman Tu Shoubei. At this time, Broken Mountain just turned 36, and he began to teach French and Bashu. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Bashu Buddhism gradually declined, and few Buddhist elites were able to be immune to it.
Zong Mi only knew that the five founders of Xuan Shi, namely, non-monks from Xuan Shi and Zhou, Yu Yun from Langzhou and Bichuni Yicheng from Xiangru County, guided the believers to meditate by spreading incense. This is an early spiritual group that advocates meditation and purification.
Another famous Zen Sect in the Tang Dynasty was the Zhong Jing Sect founded by Master Wuxiang (684 ~ 762) in Silla, Chengdu. It is aimed at three sentences: no memory, no thought, no forgetting. It combines three theories of abstinence, determination and wisdom, and advocates not to look back on the past, not to think about the future first, and not to forget to always correspond to this wisdom. Jing Zhongzong also inherited the legal system of the five ancestors. It spread from Zizhou Zhi Zhi (609 ~ 702) to Silence (648 ~ 734), and Silence passed down without any phase. Wuxiang Zen master preached Zen in Jingzhong Temple in Chengdu, so he took the temple as his ancestral name.
There is also a Sect split from the loyal Sect, which was founded in Tang Bao Temple in Chengdu for the layman (7 14 ~ 774). Based on the three sentences of the Buddhist monk Wu Xiang, he integrated the three theories of abstinence from wisdom of Heze God (686 ~ 760), and advocated abstinence from rites, reading, painting Buddha and writing scriptures with no thoughts as the religion. Changing the "unforgettable" of a Zen master who has no memory, no thought and no forgetfulness into "correct", the Zen pulse of Bashu has gradually attracted the general attention of scholars, and more and more people are learning meditation.
Since Yuan Wu Keqin Zen Master (1063 ~1kloc-0/35) in the Song Dynasty, Bashu Zen School has been in a slump, even only popular theoretical lectures, and the former Zen holy land has been silent. Returning to Bashu after breaking the mountain, carrying forward the clan style and popularizing the teaching method directed at the heart have aroused widespread concern in a short time, and people who came to study and ask questions have come in an endless stream, which has once again revived Bashu Zen.
Broken mountain returned from Jiangnan at the age of 36. Under the courtesy of Gong Fei, Feng Silie, Hu Yuchuan, Master Xinhai, and others, he stayed in Taiping Temple, Wanfeng Mountain, Liangshan County. At that time, Taiping Zen Temple was just in ruins. For example, Duanshan said in a poem in the last class: "Retro Taiping Temple has a broken sense of sadness. After 800 years of cold, two or three monks were killed. Mice live in incense, foxes blow Buddha lanterns, and gold is redistributed. I don't know who can. " After a year and a half of hard work, Brahma Temple reopened in the ruins, making it a "Buddhist monastery, full of waste, new corridors and new chalk, completed in winter". (Chronicle of Broken Mountain) Because Broken Mountain opened Feng Wan Taiping Temple in Bashu and called himself "Old Feng Wan", the Zen Buddhism he led was often called "Feng Wan Fa School".
In November of the seventh year of Chongzhen (1634), Poshan moved to Zhongqing Temple. Zhongqing Temple is 50 miles west of Liangshan County, surrounded by thousands of acres of forest, with beautiful environment and pleasant climate. This temple was built during the Jiajing period, with only a few temples and pavilions. Because it is remote, the incense is unsustainable. Later, it was changed from salt bone Taoist temple to Buddhist temple. After several changes, the monks dispersed and eventually became ruins. At that time, there were two laymen, Feng and Zhu. They respected the broken mountain very much, so they built their house into a temple, and asked the broken mountain to revive Zhongqing Temple. [36] After Duanshan lived in Xiqingqing Temple, its influence in Bashu and other places became more and more great, and then Qiling Temple, Daning Temple, Ziyun Temple and Qifeng Temple in Kaixian County, Xiangfu Temple, Wuliang Temple in Dangqu County, Foen Temple in Dazhu County, Panlong Temple in LULU County, wanfu temple in Nanpu County, and Jincheng Temple and Shuanggui Temple in Liangshan County were revived. During the period of Buddhism popularization, Broken Mountain paid the most attention to communication with local politicians, and even turned them into a protector.
In the eighth year of Chongzhen (1635), in the spring of March, Broken Mountain accepted the invitation of Zhu Weifeng and Feng and ascended the throne in Zhongqing Hall. In autumn and August of the tenth year of Chongzhen (1637), the abbot opened the Qiling Temple in Kaixian County. In November of the 11th year of Chongzhen, he was invited by Tan Yue Suliu, abbot of Xiangfu Temple in Quxian County. In the spring and February of the twelfth year of Chongzhen, at the invitation of Wang Taiyi and Li Fengshan, he returned to his hometown of Dazhu County and became the abbot of Wuliang Temple. In the same year, he was taken back to Feng Wan by the dharma protector. In the 14th year of Chongzhen, he was invited by Mou Bingsu and Fan Woshao, two laymen in southern Sichuan, to become the abbot of Panlong Temple. In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Xu was invited by the abbot of Daning Temple in Kaixian County. In the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Zhang Rebellion approached Kaixian County, and the abbot Jiang Jiaan returned to his hometown to avoid chaos. He repaired Jiang Jia 'an and renamed it Foen Temple. During his stay in Foen Temple, Broken Mountain was mistakenly thought by Zhang to be captured by Tang Jinshi of Dazhou. After being tortured, he was put back to Liangshan to build a buried temple. In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen (1644), Shen Jiazhi changed, the Ming Dynasty perished, the Yuan Dynasty was changed to the Qing Dynasty, and the national political situation deteriorated. Broken Mountain accepted the invitation of Qin Liangyu, one of the thirteen schools of Kuizhou, and became the abbot of Sanjiao Temple in Zhongxian County. On the Buddha's birthday in the fourth year of Shunzhi (1647), the layman Zhang Yingqi stayed in Tianzhu Temple. Militarily, Lu of Nanming regime was also promoted. According to the Chronicle of Broken Mountain, "Dongchuan Root Book was welcomed into the Department, and its old illness was resigned first. Because Lu Yin was in military affairs, she couldn't go to bed. She urged me to go again and again, and the teacher was planning to go with a stick. " Under the threat of breaking the mountain, Lu Daqi was impressed by the great use of breaking the mountain and held it as a gift for his disciples. After Lu Daqi took refuge in Broken Mountain, many local armed leaders also worshipped Broken Mountain as their teacher. Shunzhi seven years (1650), 54 years old, a teacher. Li Liyang, one of the thirteen schools in Kuidong, stationed troops in Fuling and lived in Wuxi in Yanshan, spreading Buddhism in the military camp. That's when the killing case happened. Yu Xiaoshan, a local armed force, personally invited Broken Mountain to Huanghua City, and frequently asked the Buddha for karma. During this period, the mediation between various military forces often announced what they should do, or took not killing as the supreme virtue, reduced the war as much as possible and saved the people in from the mire. (Chronicle of Broken Mountain)
In the eighth year of Shunzhi (165 1), he broke the mountain in Nanbin Aquarius to avoid the war. At the invitation of Qin Dunyuan, the official, he lived in Futian Temple. Shunzhi nine years, the abbot Nanpu Taibai Cliff Wannian Temple; On April 1 day of the same year, he settled in Ziyun Temple in Kaixian County and settled in Qifeng Temple. In the winter of the same year, at the invitation of General Yao, the local armed leader of Liangshan County, he became the abbot of Jincheng Temple. Breaking the mountain created a Zen style in Sichuan, and Buddhist temples were revived. Very famous, ten parties invited. Wherever he went, scholars gathered and the jungle flourished. Broken Mountain spread Buddhism in Jincheng Temple in Liangshan County (now liangping county, Chongqing), and its reputation spread far and wide. One by one, people who came to learn Zen gathered more and more. Yao Yulin, the local armed general who occupied Jincheng Village at that time, wanted to build a new Buddhist temple in Wanzhu Mountain, half a mile away from Jincheng Temple.
In the autumn of the tenth year of Shunzhi (1653), with the concerted efforts of Qixin Qi Xin, we built more than 30 pagodas, abbots' buildings and monasteries in a wilderness, and the scale gradually became larger. Because there are two osmanthus trees in the temple, it is named Shuangguitang Temple. Broken Mountain has preached in Shuangguitang Temple for more than 20 years, and there are many heroes, ghosts and gods, and the melting pot is wide open. Although Buddhism declined during the war years, under the inspiration of the broken mountain, students from all over the world came to participate in meditation and enlightenment.
In the eleventh year of Shunzhi (1654), Zhang, a master of breaking mountains, came to Shuangguitang in Liangshan from Guizhou. Seeing that he had become a climate, he broke the mountain and ordered him to worship in the south of the Yangtze River and sweep the Miyun Zen Master Tower. Zhang Xuezui, a disciple of Duanshan Sect, traveled to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. First, I want Zhang Xuezui to study in Jiangnan and sharpen his mind through travel. The second is to ask Zhang Xuedai to sweep the Miyun Zen Master Tower, saying that he will not forget the teacher's kindness. Third, in order to contact the good knowledge of all parties, twelve volumes of Quotations from Broken Mountain were printed and engraved.
In order to disintegrate Bashu Nanming regime, peasant rebels and local armed forces, the Qing army sent people to capture Broken Mountain many times. In the 14th year of Shunzhi (1657), Wu Sangui, the king of the day, introduced the wax juice spirit of Jingming Temple in Hanzhong County, and sent messengers to send incense vestments and other solemn things in the name of Chen Yuanyuan in Fujin. Please break the mountain for his statement When the messenger left Shuanggui Hall in Liangshan, he asked for the portrait and calligraphy of Broken Mountain and came back to me. At that time, the political environment in Bashu was very complicated, and many anti-Qing people took advantage of it to oppose the Qing court. For example, armed forces in Yao and other places, in the name of "fighting against the Qing Dynasty and restoring sight", are trying their best to win over spiritual leaders who unite people and break the mountains. Knowing the mountain-breaking forces in the middle of Shu, the Qing government also extended an olive branch, intending to win over and subdue local armed forces with the power of faith. Later, the Qing Dynasty sent Li to Sichuan to "invade". The first thing Li did after entering Sichuan was to write a very humble and respectful letter to Broken Mountain, hoping to get its support, but he didn't get a response from Broken Mountain. As the last stronghold of Nanming regime in southwest China, various local armed forces have also set up their own homes, nominally supporting Nanming, thus forming a strong anti-Qing trend in southwest China. The Qing government wanted to use the great influence of Broken Mountain among the people to divide the local armed forces in Bashu area one by one and finally eliminate the residual forces. However, as a court official, Li himself did not make full use of this broken mountain. Obviously, he also believes in Buddhism and admires Broken Mountain. In the eighteenth year of Shunzhi (166 1), the newly-built Shuanggui Hall was completed, and there was a sleeping hall on the left side of the hall. The Dharma Hall is a place where Zen Buddhism preaches, which shows that the scale of breaking the mountain and spreading Buddhism has reached a new level. At that time, Li also asked the emissary, "What about the jungle system in Guangdong and Guangxi?" The messenger said, "Fan Yu Xiongwei, the hut is quiet. Among them, there are more than 10,000 people who sincerely learn the Tao. " Of course, more than 10,000 fingers is definitely a compliment, but it shows that the jungle of Shuanggui is complete and meditation and enlightenment have become a common practice. Upon hearing this, Li inscribed "Bright Lights" to show his admiration. Broken mountain has a soft spot for the Ming Dynasty, but it has some conflicts with the Qing government. However, Li sent messengers to visit him many times, or wrote books to greet him and accepted him as a disciple. According to the Chronicle of Broken Mountain, just after the war, Li Kaixuan returned and immediately sent officers to Shuangguitang to welcome Broken Mountain to Chongqing to recommend relatives. At that time, breaking the mountain ordered water and led people to practice. They led their team through Changshou County and all the way to the mountain city of Chongqing. In Chongqing, Broken Mountain has received unprecedented welcome.
There are many Zen masters in history who either sit back and watch, or die, or die suddenly, and so on. They don't want to shock the world by breaking mountains. They just want to live as usual, naturally, live like life, die like death, and face life and death aloof. According to Zhang's drunken Zen master, Broken Mountain told his disciples not to cry after his death, but to handle the funeral according to the etiquette of Confucian gentleman's coffin and clothes. March 16, sea time, thunder and lightning, downpour. The mountain breaks and ends up tight, pointing to the candle and dying. At the age of seventy. The disciples did not violate the teacher's teaching, but built a tower for the broken mountain behind Shuanggui Hall in accordance with Confucian funeral etiquette.
