The only snake temple in the world is full of poisonous snakes. Why don't snakes bite for a hundred years?
Located in Penang, Malaysia, this snake temple was originally named Kiyomizu Temple and Seiryuji, with a history of over 100 years. Although he is in Malaysia, the background of the temple has deep roots in China, because the founder of Shimizu who worked in the temple was Chen Chaoying, an anti-Yuan hero in the late Song Dynasty, who became a monk in Fujian in his later years. Since then, he has followed the rumor from his hometown that since the temple was built in Malaysia, green snakes have been entering the temple to steal food offered by pilgrims. These green snakes are more than one meter long and as small as earthworms, hovering around the incense table, candlesticks, vases and beams in the temple. At first, the monks in the temple drove them away for safety, but they found that they would make a comeback the next day and would not take the initiative to hurt the pilgrims, so they stopped driving. Gradually, snakes enjoyed the food on the incense case at will, and the pilgrims made their own incense, but they got along well with each other and did not interfere with each other.
This makes more and more snakes in the temple, and even many poisonous snakes have become permanent guests in the temple. The most common is the green snake. If this poisonous snake bites, it is very likely to kill people. However, the green snake in the temple, or other poisonous snakes, 100 has not harmed anyone for more than years, and has attracted many tourists to take pictures around their necks, making it one of the most famous scenic spots in the area. Then why don't snakes in the snake temple bite? Is it true that the local residents said that poisonous snakes were affected in the temple?
Snake is a cold-blooded animal, which is difficult to domesticate. No matter how many years the snake trainer has been bitten by a snake, the snakes in the temple have never practiced, but they never bite. There are two reasons for this, which are divided into self-factors and external factors. Self-factors should start from the nature of snakes. Although poisonous tongues have deadly venom, they never use it easily, but they will resist when threatened. Poisonous snakes seldom take the initiative to hurt people. Both Xiangke and the monks in Zhesi Temple regard the snakes in the temple as sacred incarnations with gods, so they will not take the initiative to hurt them, and even love them.
The other is its external factors. Many pilgrims come to the snake temple to worship every day. Its fragrance is full, and people who inhale too much fragrance will have dizziness and other discomfort symptoms. So do snakes. They inhale a lot of smoke, which makes their tongues slow. In addition, they have been taken care of by monks in temples all their lives and have long lost their ability to survive in the wild. Therefore, they can only be golden snakes in the temple, living on the sacrifices in Kiyomizu Temple. Snakes in temples will not attack other creatures to solve the hunger problem after they are full. On the other hand, folding only moves at night and sleeps around during the day, which is also staggered from the trajectory of human activities, greatly reducing the possibility of snakes attacking humans.
In a word, these two reasons make the snakes in the snake temple not attack human beings, and both are indispensable, realizing the rare situation of harmony between man and snake. It can also be seen that in fact, the key to achieving harmony between man and animals lies in how people do it. Do you think this will happen in our country?
