承天禪寺條評論

承天寺，位於福建省泉州市中心承天巷對面南俊巷東側，又名月台寺，初名“南禪寺”，南唐保大末年至中興初年（公元957－958年）建寺，北宋景德四年（1007年）賜名承天寺，其規模僅次於開元寺，為閩南三大叢林之一。承天寺歷代屢經重修，與開元寺、崇福寺並稱泉州三大叢林，有“一塵不染”、“梅石生香”等奇景，原為五代十國時期清源軍節度使留從效的南花園。承天寺又名月台寺，位於崇陽門東南、南俊巷東側。承天寺屢修屢廢，歷經千年，建築規模卻越來越大，與開元寺、崇福寺並稱為“泉州三大叢林”。鼎盛時期殿宇曾達40多座，海內外許多名僧大德出其門庭。文革期間寺宇大毀，彌勒殿、法堂、鐘鼓樓、廊廡及山亭塔幢等等被毀，其他則用作民宅、辦工廠。承天寺是85年在原址重修的。承天寺環境清幽，頗具城市山林之概，是鬧市難得的一片園林緣地。承天寺，被稱為“城市山林”的十奇景分別是：偃松清風、方池梅影、捲簾朝日、榕徑午蔭、塔無棲禽、瑤台明月、推蓬雨夜、嘯庵竹聲、鸚歌暮雲、石如鸚鵡。南宋泉州太守王十朋將這十景加以總結，寫有“十奇”詩七律十首，后明書法家張瑞圖將這十景書刻於碑文，傳之後世。但也有人認為“月台倒影”、“一塵不染”、“梅石生香”各為十景之一。

就向閩南甲剎——承天寺出發。承天寺原為五代節度使留從效的南花園，后改建為南神寺，北宋景德四年賜名承天寺。進入山門，先是一徑幽幽長道，道旁榕樹垂條，自是與別處不同。轉彎就見中軸線上的建築依次是天王殿、彌勒殿、大雄寶殿等。院內還有弘一法師化身處，這是在泉州第一次與法師軌跡相遇。院牆上有他的箴言，“執相而求，咫尺千里”“律己，宜帶秋氣，律人，須帶春風”，可做自省之句。旁邊是六祖慧能的佛語“迷時師度，悟了自度”，讀罷有些迷津可渡的釋然。

承天寺，位於福建省泉州市中心承天巷對面南俊巷東側，又名月台寺，南唐保大末年至中興初年（公元957－958年）建寺，歷代屢經重修，與開元寺、崇福寺並稱泉州三大叢林，寺內有七座宋代石塔及石經幢。大雄寶殿前有兩口“放生池”，池旁有兩座“飛來塔”，還有五代閩越國的古鑄錢遺址，寺內非常清幽

它是美麗的,充滿了歷史,對它有一種和平的感覺。

Chengtian Temple is located on the east side of Nanjun Lane opposite Chengtian Lane in Quanzhou City, Fujian Province. It is also known as Platform Temple. It was built from the end of Baoda in the Southern Tang Dynasty to the beginning of Zhongxing (957-958 A.D.). It has been renovated many times in past dynasties. It is also known as the three jungles of Quanzhou, including "spotless", "Meishengxiang" and other wonders. In fact, it's not far from the Yuan Temple. It takes about half an hour to follow the navigation. When you first see the mountain gate, it's not so conspicuous. You think it's a small temple, but when you enter it, you have a different world. The entrance to the mountain gate is a 4.6-metre wide, 99.6-metre long, 458.16-metre-wide Yongdao, south of Yongdao, seven Buddhist pagodas with banyan trees planted between them. There are "tower without bird habitat", "banyan without wall", "fly does not face the sky" scenery. On the South wall, there are Master Hongyi's handwriting "Amitabha Buddha in the South" "ascending to the Supreme Tao, gaining the right Dharma flow", "good enlightenment without hindrance, eternal peace" and other Zen enlightenment. On the North wall, there are two stone tablets "Ancient Cast Money Site" and "Revolutionary Site". On the south side of Yongdao lies a stone tablet for the protection of cultural relics of Quanzhou Municipal People's Government. The end of Yongdao turned north into a dense temple building, all sitting north to south. This is different from the general pattern of the temple entrance is the main hall. Turning to the main hall, the central axis of the temple is distributed in turn with the Temple of Heaven, the Hall of Maitreya, the Hall of Majesty, the Hall of Fatherhood, the Hall of Manjushu, and the Eastern Axis: the Yuanchangyuan, the Guangqin Monk Library, the old monastery, the new monastery, the guest hall, the Dragon King Temple, the Five Views Hall, the former site of Nanyuan, the Great Pessimism Pavilion, the Memorial Hall of Master Huiquan, the Zen Hall, the Nirvana Hal There are Kaishan Hall, Zen Hall, Guangxiao Temple, Wang Gong Temple, Liugong Temple, Gong De Hall, Xu Gong Temple and so on on on the West axis. Today there are only Tanyue Wang Gong Temple . The weather was fine, and I felt relaxed and happy walking in it. Chengtian Temple was more like a hermit hiding in prosperity and a place of peace than the visitors of Kaiyuan Temple such as knitting.

Chengtian Temple is also a well-known Millennium ancient temple, although its next door is a primary school, the door is a noisy road, but into the temple, suddenly feel everything is clean. There are towering ancient trees in the temple, but the palaces seem to have been reconstructed in modern times, and there are not too many ancient traces. It is said that most of the monuments here were destroyed in the Cultural Revolution, which is a pity. Chengtian Temple is also adjacent to a small ancestral hall of the three kings of Kaimin, built in memory of the great beneficiaries of the late Tang Dynasty, Wang's three brothers.
