The situation of Dabei Ancient Temple in Tangwang Mountain in Haicheng
I went to Dabei Ancient Temple on March 18. It was still very cold at that time and I wore cotton clothes. There is also a strong wind on the mountain there. I think it would be better to wear a thicker coat when I go out. When I enter the main hall, it will be very warm, probably because there are so many people. I can take off my coat then.
You will be staying in the large Nianfo Hall in the temple. Don’t worry, you can still live there. On the night before the first and fifteenth day of every month, many people will rush there to recite the Buddha's name. When I went there, I attended the three-hour chanting ceremony on the fifteenth day of the lunar month. There were more than 2,000 people, but they could still fit in. Even though the fourteenth day was It was a bit crowded in the evening. As soon as the 15th Dharma Assembly was completed, many people left, so I slept quite spaciously the second night.
It is best to bring a pair of clean cloth shoes. You cannot take off your shoes in the main hall, and it is a bit hot due to the large number of people. This is also refreshing. In addition, it is also good to put on clean cloth shoes before returning to the main hall after using the toilet. The legal approach.
Bring your ID card, which is required for placing orders. Keep the receipt given when registering after placing the order. When you leave the temple and go home, you must hand in the list.
If you want to request a magic weapon, please make a list before requesting it. However, if you are taking the early train and the circulation office is not open yet, you can go and explain the situation in advance.
One thing to note is that mobile phones are required to be turned off when going there. In order to avoid affecting the spiritual practice of the countless visible and invisible sentient beings who follow the crowd, do not do this during the Buddhist chanting ceremony. Impeding their major events in the afterlife will cause them to become resentful and troubled, so they are required to turn off their phones. The two words that can be seen most everywhere are "stop talking". No matter whether you are fasting, washing up, going to the toilet, or doing morning prayers, you should stop talking. Once you have made up your mind to go here, just treat yourself as far away from the world of mortals and become a monk for a few days, and put down the secular world. I just want to recite the Buddha's name with peace of mind.
I hope it will be helpful to your mother.
