The Historical Rise and Fall of Nanshan Method

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, after the hardships of Huichang Law and the wars of the Five Dynasties, Nanshan Law School, like other sects, went into decline. Lawyer Yun Kan of Taizhou in Song Dynasty (A.D.? —— 106 1 year, the Zen master opened the Buddhist altar widely, and based on ten books of Taoism, he wrote ten annotation books, such as "Money must be recorded correctly when traveling", "admonition book", "Records of the origin of the book of abstinence from ink" and "Taking Yi Ni's money as an auxiliary note", to illustrate the spirit of this Sect. This is the lawyer Yuan Zhao Hangzhou (A.D.1048-116) who is known as the "teacher with ten annotations" in the Lingzhi Temple in Qiantang. He participated in the study of the Tiantai Pure Land, and recorded the Taoist teachings on Tiantai for the three major parts of Nanshan, namely "Doing Money" and "Instructions". At the same time, he advocated the theory of the integration of teaching, dharma and Zen, became a generation of legalists, and greatly promoted the legalist thought, thus reviving the declining Nanshan School again. Since Daoxuan, there have been more than 60 scholars who have written thousands of books, among which lawyer Yuan Zhao and his followers are the most prosperous.

However, although Yun Kan's Zheng Huiji and Yuan Zhao's Zi Zhi Ji are both explanations of Daoxuan's Si Fen Chao, these two books often give different explanations on the direction of Buddhism and the length of clothing system, which leads to the division of Nanshan Legalism into Cheng Wai and Zi Zhi Zong, and Yuan Zhao's Zi Zhi Zong is one of them. In the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, although the inheritance of Buddhism was not interrupted, it once again showed a scene of decline because of the dispersion of classics. In the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, great achievements in practicing Buddhism appeared one after another, such as Lianchi, Yan Yi, Hongzan and Yuanxian, all of which were handed down from generation to generation. In addition, Nanjing lawyer Gu Xinruxin (A.D.1541-15) climbed Wutai Mountain and felt that Manjusri Bodhisattva was given a precept, had an epiphany and wandered in the multiplication table. After returning to Nanjing, he opened more than 30 places in Linggu Temple, qixia temple, Kanluo Temple and Lingyin Temple, attracting more than 10,000 people, thus reviving the Nanshan method. To encourage him to promote education, Ming Shenzong gave him a purple coat, a bowl and a stick, and was named "Hui Yun Lawyer", known as the originator of ZTE law in the world and the Gu Lin School of Legal System. There is a volume of "Busa Orbital Instruments with Warning and Signs".

There is sex, silence, clarity and so on under the ancient heart door. Among them, Samadhi Ji Guang lawyer (1580- 1645) first learned the idea that saints should teach first, and then learned the methods of Ni and Zen, and set up a ring altar in Nanjing Baohuashan to establish the Nanshan Famen Dojo. Since then, Baohua Mountain has become the abstinence center in China, and the abstinence preaching in the jungles in the north and south has followed the norms of Baohua Mountain. There are more than 100 altars presided over by Samadhi lawyers, and there are countless commandments. Famous disciples are Xiang Xuehai and Yue Yue. He is the author of four volumes of Direct Interpretation of the Sanskrit and Sixteen Views of Confessions.

See Harle style (A.D. 160 1- 1679) inherited the method of Baohua Mountain, and Xiang Xuehai transferred to Tianning Temple in Changzhou, all of which were passed on.

Seeing that Lawyer Yue is a beginner of Hua Yan, he soon fell in love with lawyer Samadhi Ji Guang and studied the four-point method in depth. When I saw the moon rising, I spoke the Sanskrit, and I was articulate and analyzed the essence. Samadhi's lawyer once praised: "The old man quit building for 30 years. If he hadn't seen the moon, he would have been ruined!" More than 60 disciples are determined to inherit the Dharma, and have written dozens of ritual rituals such as Mahayana Xuanyi, Tani Zhichi Collection, and Tani Zuo Zuo's Interpretation.

Under Ding 'an, three generations, Min Song, Shi Yong and Wen Hai, successively spread the method of Baohua Mountain.

In the 12th year of Emperor Sejong Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1734), Wen Hai was sent to Beijing to collate the four volumes of the Sanskrit, the abbot of Fayuan Temple, the branch of Bao Hua Famen, and the first ancestor of Fayuan Temple. Wenhai offered to build the Three Altars Great Ring. At that time, there were 1800 monks begging in the Great Ring. Since then, Baohuashan's method has also branched in the north and distributed lights all over the country. Wen Haijie has spread all over the world, with hundreds of thousands of followers. Its dharma vein is passed down from generation to generation, such as sexual speech, roundness, clarity, calmness, wisdom, generosity, naturalness, India Sect and hair circle.
