This temple is now located halfway up the mountain on the east side of Caishan Town, Huangmei County, Hubei Province. It was built in Weichi Gong in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. On the girder of the main hall of the ancient temple, there is the handwriting of "Eight years of Zhenguan (AD 634), Weichi Gong Xiu".
Li Bai's poem "Stay in Jiangxin Temple" is engraved on the rock, and there is also a plum tree planted by Zhi Dun, a monk of the Jin Dynasty, which is called "Golden Plum" by the world. Today, although the trunk is old, the new branches are flourishing. Because they bloom twice a year, they are also called "Ermei".
Sleeping in the Mountain Temple, a poem that was once selected as a primary school Chinese textbook, is generally considered to be the work of Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty. This poem depicts the towering buildings in the temple in an extremely exaggerated way, expressing the poet's amazement at the engineering art of ancient temples and his yearning and pursuit of immortal life.
The original text is as follows:
The tall buildings of the temple on the mountain are really high, like a hundred feet. People upstairs are like a hand that can pick off the stars in the sky.
Standing here, I dare not speak loudly for fear of disturbing the gods in the sky.
The translation is as follows:
The high-rise building of the temple on the mountain is really high, it seems to be 100 feet. People upstairs seem to be able to pick off the stars in the sky with one hand.
Standing here, I dare not speak loudly for fear of disturbing the gods in the sky.
Extended data:
The poet spent the night in a temple in the deep mountains, and found a high Buddhist scripture-storing building behind the temple, so he climbed it. Looking at the distance from the railing, there are many stars. Li Bai wrote this short poem about a scenic trip full of poetry.
The first sentence depicts a steep, straight and towering temple building. The word "danger" is eye-catching and eye-catching. The ingenious combination with the word "high" in the same sentence accurately, vividly and vividly depicts the extraordinary momentum of the mountain temple standing on the top of the mountain and dominating the world.
The second sentence uses extremely exaggerated techniques to set off towering peaks and temples. Every word leads the reader's aesthetic sight to the splendid night sky of Xinghan. Instead of feeling "too cold at the top", it gives people a broad feeling. The beauty of starry night arouses people's yearning for towering "dangerous buildings".
In three or four sentences, "Dare" describes the author's psychological state in a dangerous building at night. From the poet's psychology of "dare" and "fear", readers can completely imagine the distance between "Mountain Temple" and "Heaven and Man", so the height of Mountain Temple is self-evident. When the poet stands on the roof, he can pick off the stars in the sky with his hands. I dare not speak loudly here, for fear of disturbing the gods in the sky.
