The bright moon and the empty courtyard are like water like a Chinese year

Chapter 62 Vega suddenly and miraculously wakes up (1)

Since the second young master of the Song family (Vega) was injured, the second aunt of the Song family (Yiyi) tried all kinds of methods, but her son (Vega) did not wake up.

One day, I heard from my friends that praying at Zhenru Temple was very effective.

Therefore, the second concubine of the Song family (Yiyi) decided to bring her daughter-in-law (Zihan) to Zhenru Temple to pray for her son/second young master of the Song family (Vega), hoping that her son (Vega) would wake up soon.

Narrator:

Shanghai Zhenru Temple is also called Putuo Zhenru Temple.

Zhenru Temple was first built in the Jiading period of the Southern Song Dynasty (1208-1223). It was originally Zhenru Temple and was rebuilt by Seng Yongan.Zhenru Temple is a famous Buddhist temple in Shanghai. It was originally named "Wanshou Temple" and commonly known as "Grand Temple".

During the Jiading period of the Southern Song Dynasty (1208-1224), the monk Yong'an changed the courtyard into a temple.

In the seventh year of Yuan Yanyou (1320), monk Miaoxin moved it to the present site on the northeast side of the intersection of Taopu and Liyuanbang, built a new hall, and renamed it Zhenru Temple.

The name of the temple is taken from the explanation in the Buddhist scripture "Cheng Wei Consciousness Theory": "True means real, and it is not false; Ru means as usual, which means there is no change. It is said that this is true, and it is always like its nature in all places, so it is called true. .”

The couplet on the crossbeam in the temple has the sentence "The Buddha grows brighter day by day, worships the prosperity of the world, and realizes the truth", which points out the origin of the name of the temple.

After the relocation of Zhenru Temple, due to the strong incense, a market appeared in front of the temple, which was named Zhenru City because of the temple.

With the development of the market town, the Zhenru Temple located in the north of the town is also expanding.

Many side halls and Buddhist pavilions have been expanded around the main hall (Daxiong Hall).

There are four versions of the Tripitaka and other Buddhist classics in various versions such as "Taizheng Zang" and "Yaziji Zangjing".

At the bottom of the architrave of the main hall, there is a hook inscribed with 26 characters "(time) the seventh year of Geng Shen Yanyou, the seventh year of the Great Yuan Dynasty, the [-]th day of the summer month of the Guiwei season, Sunda can't do anything to build the tripod", which should be the time when the main hall beam was completed.
