Chapter 187

As Gou Sheng introduced it, he played the video data of the Jade Buddha Temple to the team members.

[Gou Sheng: The Temple of the Emerald Buddha has the highest status among many temples in Thailand. There are several reasons: First, the king of Thailand must be a Buddhist, and during the growth stage of the king, he must become a monk and practice for a period of time. The Temple of the Emerald Buddha is the Thai The place where the king of the country became a monk and practiced asceticism;

Second, it is said that the Emerald Buddha has always protected Thailand.This Jade Buddha once triggered the war between Thailand and Laos. In the end, King Rama I brought it back to Thailand after repelling Laos in 1778, and built a temple specifically for her.Third, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha also enshrines the relics of the Buddha Sakyamuni! 】

When Gao Ruiya heard this, the "occupational disease" occurred again, and her eyes widened: "I heard that the relics are actually stones in the human body, which are formed because the monks meditate for a long time and are inactive.

Buddhism emphasizes that the four elements are empty, and it is a tradition to be cremated after death.

It is said that when Sakyamuni entered nirvana about 2500 years ago, his disciples obtained a skull, two phalanges, four teeth, a middle finger bone relic and 84000 bead-shaped true bodies from the ashes when he cremated his body. Relics.

I really want to scrape off a little bit, even a tiny bit, into a powder, and use it for a comprehensive DNA profile analysis, that would be great~"

[Gou Sheng: Just think of your whims. Let’s not mention that DNA becomes unrecognizable even to grandma under high temperatures. Do you still want to do a complete DNA sequencing in 2500 years? 】

Gao Ruizhe became impatient: "Don't listen to her, she is ill again, Gou Sheng, please continue to introduce us!"

[Gousheng: Got the order!The carving of the Jade Buddha was completed in 43 BC and has a history of more than 2000 years.

It was recorded in historical records around AD 1434 that it was first enshrined by the Thai country. During these more than 1000 years, the Jade Buddha was enshrined by people from six countries, and finally came to Chiang Rai.

At that time, there was a war. In order to protect the Jade Buddha, the Lord of Chiang Rai came up with a countermeasure, which was to paste the Jade Buddha with mud and then coat it with gold.

From the appearance, this is just an ordinary gold-plated clay Buddha statue, which was later enshrined in an ordinary temple in Chiang Rai Province.

Later, because the war never subsided, fewer and fewer people knew this secret, until a mysterious and mysterious thing happened a few years later!

It is said that lightning strikes big trees from time to time, but it is rare to hit temples.

The main hall enshrining the gold-plated clay jade Buddha statue was actually struck by lightning!
The Buddhist temple was destroyed beyond recognition. The monks at that time were still worried that someone in the temple had broken the precepts and caused disaster.

The monks had no choice but to move the Buddha statue to other Buddhist temples and continue to receive incense and worship.

At first, people did not find anything special about this clay Buddha statue. After a while, the gilded plaster on the tip of the Buddha's nose gradually fell off, and the monks discovered that there was something hidden inside this ordinary clay Buddha statue. A rare jade Buddha in the world!
Since then, an ingenious and priceless jade Buddha has been able to see the light of day again.

When the Lord of Chiang Rai learned about the Emerald Buddha, he would respectfully invite the Emerald Buddha to Chiang Mai to continue to be worshiped by people.

At that time, elephants were the main means of transportation in Thailand. When the elephants were carrying this exquisite Buddha statue towards the city of Chiang Mai, something strange happened.

This elephant actually turned its head three times and walked towards Lampang Province. No matter how hard the mahout drove or lured him with food, the elephant just refused to move towards Chiang Mai.

In desperation, the monks gave up their efforts and allowed him to walk freely, following the elephant's footsteps.Finally, the elephant carried the Jade Buddha to Lampang Palace. The Jade Buddha has been in Lampang Palace for more than 200 years.After that, the Jade Buddha also went through several changes, and was once respectfully invited to Vientiane, Laos to be worshiped for more than [-] years.

It was not until 1778 that King Zheng of Thailand welcomed the Emerald Buddha back to Thailand from Vientiane and enshrined it in the Temple of Dawn in the capital Thonburi Province for people to worship.

It was not until finally, when Rama I became the King of Thailand, that the Emerald Buddha was enshrined in the current Temple of the Emerald Buddha. 】

After Gou Sheng's introduction, Gao Ruiya looked at the picture of the Jade Buddha on the screen and sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect that a Jade Buddha has such a history of ups and downs!"

Long Tenghai, who had been fascinated along the way, was brought back to his senses by Gao Ruiya's exclamation, and he couldn't help but admire: "Yes! This jade Buddha has spanned the long river of history and has been watching the joys and sorrows of the world for thousands of years. , bless people's safety with endless compassion and wisdom.

The Buddha's light shines everywhere, helping the world to escape from the abyss of suffering and reach the other side of Nirvana as soon as possible! "

Gao Ruiya was stunned immediately and murmured in a low voice: "It seems that this person is an expert ~ a senior believer! I am an atheist, not a religious person ~ I didn't say everything just now, I just lamented that an ordinary Jade Buddha, why are there so many misfortunes in life?..."

Long Tenghai almost vomited blood: "I'm sorry, I wronged you." Then he rolled his eyes.

Wan Hao looked at Long Tenghai with admiration: "It seems that you are also a devout Buddhist~"

Long Tenghai: "Actually, I don't really count. It's just that my mother believes in Buddhism and has listened to it a lot since I was a child. I guess I've been influenced by it~"

Wan Hao seemed to be relieved: "I'm relieved now. When we arrive at the Jade Buddha Temple, everyone will listen to Long Tenghai's reminders and suggestions. I'm afraid that when I'm cooking vegetarian food in the kitchen, you will make a fuss without me watching. What an embarrassment.

Gou Sheng will introduce to them our plan for today. "

[Gou Sheng: We are honored to be able to take advantage of Master and go to the scene today to watch the Buddha's robe changing ceremony. After the ceremony, both of you stood out.

Because devout believers will kneel on the ground at that time, you should be careful where you step. It’s not a big deal if you step on other people’s clothes. If you step on someone else’s fingers, it will be too embarrassing!
After the ceremony, Master will cook a vegetarian meal for the holy monk Luang Phor, and then it’s time for you to show off your shoe-shining rainbow P skills!

Thanks to the blue team's new freshman gift package strategy that was promoted in rural areas, their enrollment continues to grow.

The current number of registered people has grown to thousands!

And the number of students enrolled in our red team is still in the ten digits, still starting with 1~ If we polish our shoes and take good pictures of our horses, there will be more than a thousand people. If the holy monk gives the order, he can't wait for all the novice monks in Thailand to go there. School reports.

Not to mention 5 schools, even 50 schools we will fill it with students! 】

Gou Sheng proudly continued to introduce the situation to the team members, and the chariot drove the team members to the outskirts of the city.

It's just that the more people look at it, the more wrong it becomes. This doesn't look like the area around a temple with lots of incense, does it? !
