Blessed health culture of Darushan coastal tourist resort
In Rushan, it has been passed down from generation to generation that Darushan is a treasure place where miasma does not invade and longevity is prolonged. The average life expectancy of people in this area is very long. The proportion of centenarians in Rushan city to the total population has exceeded 75% of the standard of "hometown of longevity" for many years in a row, and the resident of Darushan coastal tourist resort is 5-6 times of this standard; Life expectancy is four percentage points higher than that of the whole city. There are only 67 households in the three administrative villages, and there are more than 1 elderly people over 8 years old. Darushan is a well-deserved longevity area in the hometown of longevity. Among them, xishan village, since the establishment of the village-level Party branch in Zhongzhong, eleven party branch secretaries are still alive; In 28, Zhao Xiuxiang and Zhao Xiuju, the 96-year-old twin sisters of the village, received the certificate of "Best in kiness in the Great World" from the headquarters in kiness, Shanghai on July 28th, and were confirmed as the oldest twins in China. Is it a coincidence of legend and reality that the largest number of long-lived elderly people in China appear at the foot of Darushan, or is there an inevitable connection between them? With this question, the author launched an investigation.
Nu Wa, a mythical woman in China, made people out of earth with the intention of prospering the world and making the people she created live a long and healthy life. Legend has it that the ancestor of the Chinese nation, the Yellow Emperor, ascended to heaven with his body. The Bible also says that God created Adam in the image of God from clay, with the intention of letting people manage the world. Afraid of Adam's loneliness, God made Eve out of one of Adam's flank bones and made Adam a spouse. Satan, the invisible devil with spirit, attached himself to the snake body and opened his mouth to lure Eve and Adam to steal the forbidden fruit. After being expelled from the Garden of Eden, Adam worked hard to support his family, but he still lived until he died at the age of 93. The origin of life is disease-free, and the meaning of life is happy. People used to fantasize about some mysterious power in order to exist with heaven and earth. Qin Shihuang sent Xu Fu to lead boys and girls across the sea to seek immortality. Chang 'e ate the fairy medicine and ran to the moon; Liu Chen and Ruan Zhao went to the rooftop and ate Xiantao. They consciously stayed on the mountain for only half a year, but when they got home, they met their great-grandchildren after seven generations.
According to the spirit of the Book of Changes, a gentleman keeps improving himself. The terrain is Kun, and the gentleman is virtuous; The three talents of heaven, earth and man should be more and more harmonious and unified. According to the principle of the five elements, everything has its vanquisher, and there should be no incurable disease. According to the viewpoint of evolution, the process of evolution is progressing in an excellent, balanced and beautiful direction. According to the information transmitted by genetic science, the age of maturity multiplied by eight is the law of life span, and people should live to at least 15-2 years old.
A large number of examples show that human beings have been looking for ways and materials to live a long and healthy life since ancient times. Then, do Zhao Xiuxiang, Zhao Xiuju and the people at the foot of Darushan know how to live long and have longevity materials? Song Lifu, who is devoted to the study of aging in Rushan, said in the Investigation on the Reasons for the Longevity of Centenarians in Rushan: "Longevity genes, stable social environment, good family environment, appropriate lifestyle and positive attitude towards life are not unique to Rushan, but also exist in other regions, and the only excellent natural environment is the greatest advantage of Rushan, which is beyond the reach of most regions." Why does his research conclusion say that the natural environment can't be reached elsewhere?
the climate is unique. There is no heat in summer and no cold in winter. This sentence is more appropriate to describe the climate of Darushan. Darushan Scenic Area faces the sea and is surrounded by mountains. In summer, the sea breeze is cool and natural. In winter, the north wind is in season, and the mountains are like walls, which block the cold and store the warmth. The uniqueness lies in this kind of "wall" or "multi-layer". In the whole Rushan area, the mountains such as Kunyu Mountain and Ma Shishan form a crescent-shaped barrier, which blocks the chilly north wind and forms a warm winter-style "Rushan climate"; Darushan and the surrounding mountains form a barrier, which blocks the wind from the north again, and with the temperature regulation of the sea, a unique "Darushan climate" is formed. Its moderate temperature, appropriate humidity and fresh air are extremely pleasant.
the soil is unique. Darushan scenic spot resident, hilly landform, sandy land. According to the analysis of agricultural departments, its soil is "nutrient soil" and "non-toxic mud", which is rich in many minerals needed by human body and does not contain any harmful elements. The grain, fruits and vegetables produced here are all pure in taste. Sandy hillside, because of its good water permeability and drainage, can't stay in the soil even if it has been used with chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
the water quality is unique. There are many wells around Darushan, whose water is milky white. When people call it "white serous water", its water is sweet. White serous water appears at the foot of Darushan, a myth of maternal love, which makes people feel amazing. It is regarded as the milk of the Virgin Mary, so it is also called the "holy milk spring". In Darushan area, even if it is not milky well water, the drinking taste is quite good. All the well water is weakly alkaline, which is a rare high-quality drinking water.
the products are unique. Darushan area is rich in seafood and mountain plant resources. Rushankou in the west and Langnuankou in the east, a large open water area, has smooth tidal current and less wind and waves. Rushan River and Huanglei River rush into the sea, bringing in a lot of natural bait, which is very suitable for shellfish growth. Therefore, oysters, sea red (mussels) and clams (variegated clams) produced along the coast of Darushan are of excellent quality and have been famous all over the country since ancient times. Especially oysters, there is a beautiful legend. It is said that when the Three Notre Dames turned into Darushan, for the sake of the children's livelihood, some milk was dripped to the coast and became shellfish attached to the rocks. Its meat color is as white as milk, it can be eaten raw and cooked, and it is rich in nutrition and delicious, so it is called "mother drain" and later written as oyster. There are quite a lot of wild vegetables in Darushan area, among which bracken, shepherd's purse, bitter herb, purslane and woman-in-law are the most famous. There are a lot of medicinal materials along the side of Rushan Mountain. There are 738 species of plant medicinal materials belonging to 155 families in Rushan Mountain, most of which are concentrated here. Among them, motherwort, mint, madder, perilla, cattail, yam and Ziziphus jujuba seeds are of high quality.
unique diet. People in the three villages under Darushan have had the habit of "porridge at night" since ancient times, that is, drinking noodles with gravy for dinner. When wheat was planted less, it was to drink sweet potato noodles (commonly known as sweet potato soup). It is not strange to drink noodles, but it is strange in the "soup brine" that pours noodles. In the past, there was no monosodium glutamate, and the meat and juice of shellfish were essential materials for making fresh brine. That is to say, people living here can get the nutrition of shellfish almost every day. The molecular structure of chitin in shellfish is similar to that of plant cellulose, but its function is not comparable to that of plant cellulose. Although chitin is finally deposited in the shell, it is "generated" in the shell meat. This substance is called "the sixth factor of life" by the scientific and technological circles after the discovery of protein, fat, sugar, minerals and vitamins, and it has a particularly strong effect on removing garbage from the body. In addition, people with a long life under Darushan have the habit of drinking tea. They drink a variety of tea, including regular tea and homemade "earth tea". The so-called earth tea is "tea" fried with mangosteen, chrysanthemum morifolium, huangqin leaf, honeysuckle, pomegranate leaf, shredded melon pulp, etc. They enjoy it with relish. People in Darushan also have the habit of eating wild vegetable dregs (also called bean foam or wild vegetable tofu). Wild vegetables can cure diseases. Many people with chronic diseases eat the dregs of wild vegetables, and their condition is alleviated or eliminated.
unique culture. The legend of the mother's love, in which the Three Sisters and the righteous sisters fought against the siren, saved the children and fended off the wild waves, gave birth to the culture of mother's love and filial piety. Paying attention to family, feelings, faithfulness, harmony, kindness and courtesy are the main tone of the folk customs here. Harmony is smooth, courtesy is safe, mind is broad and body is healthy, and mental state and physical function interact. There is a local tradition that married women sincerely worship Darushan, praying that they can become mothers after marriage and become good mothers respected by their husbands. After the children angered their parents, they also worshipped Darushan and vowed to honor their parents well in this life; These activities of worshipping faith have played a good role in inheriting and carrying forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. Good cultural traditions will certainly be of great benefit to people's mental adjustment and physical and mental health.
even myths and legends are a reflection of real life. Although the ancient people's exploration of immortality and immortality was not successful, the research on longevity has achieved fruitful results. The Huangdi Neijing says: "Yin and Pingyang are secret, and the spirit is the cure", "If you go to work, you will be cured of the disease, but if you don't, you will be cured of the disorder." This is the earliest theoretical exposition of preventive medicine. Clinicians treat the disease, and a prescription can only be directed at one patient; The preventive doctor has cured the disease, and a prescription should be universal to all people. In contrast, clinical medicine is passive medicine and preventive medicine is active medicine. Therefore, in terms of physical recuperation, people take the initiative to carry out "three major interventions": First, adjust consciousness, sort out psychological problems, and eliminate bad mental factors. The second is to adjust behavior, exercise moderately, eat scientifically, and correct bad living habits. The third is to adjust drugs, prevent diseases early, and treat diseases early, especially taking foods that reduce blood fat and soften blood vessels. Making these adjustments means keeping fit.
judging from the "six elements" of unique climate, unique soil quality, unique water quality, unique products, unique diet and unique culture, Darushan area is a rare blessed place for health preservation in the world. There may be one or two of the "six elements" in other places, but they are all concentrated in one place. As far as the author knows, only Darushan. Everything is interactive, and the "elements" complement each other and are indispensable. This is just like the prescription of traditional Chinese medicine. The drugs that are compatible together have their own "mission". If one of them is missing, the whole prescription will be "wasted". Therefore, Darushan can't be compared with other places and can't be copied. If you want to achieve the best effect of health care, you have to go to Darushan to be "nurtured" and "baptized".
In real life, there are many examples about the physical and mental rehabilitation of Darushan Scenic Area. Liu Yuefang, an employee of Rushan Petroleum Company, suffered from high blood pressure and insomnia. She retired and went back to her husband's family, Xihuangdao Village, for some time. I didn't want to stay for a long time, but my blood pressure dropped and I lost sleep. To my surprise, she discussed her husband and moved to live with her family. Chi Hongtai, a fellow villager, lives in the city with his son because his children are working outside. Chronic bronchitis was left because of a cold, and all the treatments were ineffective. Later, he found that his condition improved after living in his hometown for a few days. He was puzzled and said to everyone, "I don't have a life in a big city." People who work in Jiangjiazhuang Village and xishan village should bring some "Shengruquan" well water back to the city when they return home. According to them, the pressure of work and life is great, and the body feels weak and uncomfortable. If you drink the water from your hometown, the pressure will be relieved and your energy will be refreshed.
Darushan Scenic Area integrates mountains, seas, beaches, bays and islands, Rushankou Bay is surrounded by clear water, and the stars of Little Qingdao, Pudao, Dujia Island and Nanhuangdao arch the moon. It's really beautiful with mountains and mountains, and the islands are small in scale, and the scenery is changed. The beauty is natural, which makes people feel relaxed and free from dust. Especially in the morning or evening glow, islands, beaches and green hills are set off by the sea waves, just like a dream world. There is no boundary between heaven and earth, and mortals are immortal, with no membership or division. Such a beautiful and magical place, the essence of the sun and the moon stored, and the aura of heaven and earth contained, are beyond our ability to explain clearly. In addition to the "six elements", there may be secrets in the legend of Darushan health care. The existing scientific "eyesight" can only observe things from the three-dimensional space of "length, width and height", so human beings have not found the edge of the universe so far. If the universe is four-dimensional, five-dimensional, or even more, then many things can't be explained clearly for a while with the existing cognitive ability.
We will continue to explore Darushan, a blessed land for health. Also welcome more friends to join the health experience and field exploration! Darushan has become the birthplace of maternal love culture because of the beautiful legend that the Three Virgin Mary saved all beings. Also because of the touching story of the pharmacist Buddha opening Hulu Mountain, it has become a place with profound health culture. Motherly love nurtures the blessed land, and the blessed land can preserve health. The two are mutually causal and complementary. Darushan area, surrounded by mountains and water rings, has beautiful scenery. Since ancient times, it has been a blessed place for health and longevity. According to research, the average life expectancy of the people living here is very long. Kiness's oldest twins, Zhao Xiuxiang and Zhao Xiuju, who are now 98 years old and the oldest in China, live at the foot of Daru Mountain.
Hulu Mountain, located on the southeast coast of the main peak of Darushan, is called Huludao by local people. But she is neither an island surrounded by water, nor the Huludao city outside the province, but a small hill in the Darushan system, which is said to have been cultivated by the treasure gourd of Tie Guai Li, one of the Eight Immortals.
It is said that one day, Wang Yuyang, the "barefoot fairy" (also known as the iron-footed fairy), came here to pay homage to the Daru Mountain transformed from the Three Virgin. Just in time for the Eight Immortals to be here, Wang Yuyang said that the story of the Three Notre Dames saving the world touched many people, and everyone guarded and loved her. Even the ginseng dolls in Changbai Mountain moved to Darushan to provide nutrition for the Notre Dame. The fairy magpie and Firefox, who care for the small Rushan Xiantao, have also done a lot for this rich land. You only come to see the beautiful scenery and eat Xiantao, aren't you going to do something?
Tie Guai Li said, we have this intention. When the Three Notre Dames turned into Darushan, for the sake of children's livelihood, little milk was dripped on the coast, and it became a kind of reef shell. Its meat was as white as milk, and it was edible both raw and cooked, rich in nutrition and delicious, so it was called Muli (that is, oyster-the author added). It would be better if there were some spirits here to eliminate plague and avoid epidemic, then it would really become a paradise on earth, and it would better reflect the great love will of the Three Notre Dames. While speaking, he threw the treasure gourd in his hand to the south, and suddenly it turned into a gourd mountain by the sea. The mountain and the foot were covered with medicinal plants such as Scutellaria baicalensis, Adenophora adenophora, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Polygonum Multiflori Radix, Radix Platycodi, Radix Bupleuri, Polygonatum odoratum, Acanthopanax, Perilla frutescens and Artemisia capillaris. He Xiangu also jumped up, shaking the flower basket, and came to a goddess to spread flowers, and exotic flowers and herbs were all over the Darushan. At once, the fragrance here overflowed and reached the sky, and the turbid gas was not committed, and the poisonous insects were far away.
Just as the Eight Immortals were displaying their magical powers, an auspicious cloud floated in, and a blue pharmacist Buddha came here, wearing a golden Buddha dress and bare arms. He has a solemn manner, black hair and a bun, double ears and shoulders, holding the fruit branch of Zunsheng Chebula in his right hand and the Buddha bowl in his left hand. Wang Yuyang and the Eight Immortals hurried to pay homage. The pharmacist Buddha folded his hands and said, "The Three Notre Dames turned into a big Rushan to save the people, and gave their lives for the people's love, and both the immortal and the mortal world admired them. It's a great deed of virtue and kindness for the immortals to spread Zhilan Lingcao Hui Ze here. My Buddha is merciful, and I would like to bless the land and treasure with all the immortals, so as to ensure the well-being and happiness of the people in all directions. " Subsequently, the pharmacist Buddha chanted the "Twelve Wishes" and baptized Hulu Mountain, praying for the blessings of all beings, eliminating disasters and prolonging life. The immortals also realized the true meaning of universal love, and revered the Three Notre Dames even more, intending to protect the whole world and make all beings live a long and healthy life according to the great love feelings of the Notre Dame.
Later, in order to realize the "integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism" and jointly benefit the people of the country, Wang Yuyang and Qiu Chuji helped master Wang Zhongyang to establish Quanzhen religion in Jiaodong Peninsula. The Jade Deficiency Temple in Fengjia Town of Rushan City used to be one of the three Taoist temples in northern China, and it was Wang Yuyang's residence for more than 3 years in his hometown. Wang Yuyang founded the Lushan Sect of Quanzhen religion here, and advocated the "harmony between man and nature" on the basis of the "three religions in one" doctrine of Quanzhen religion. His Taoist philosophy and the highest achievement of health culture have been carried forward in Rushan.
It is precisely because of the above legend that the local people have the custom of worshipping the pharmacist Buddha. From generation to generation, it continues today. My mother believes in Buddhism. In her youth, she once set up a shrine for a long time to worship the pharmacist Buddha. At that time, my grandmother was sickly and her children prayed.
