Ten Famous Pagodas: The Geomantic Story of Nanjing Guling Pagoda
I also want to know the common sense of geomantic omen in building construction.
Linggu Temple in Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Scenic Area in the eastern suburb of Nanjing is close to the Memorial Hall of Unknown Martyrs of the National Revolutionary Army, also known as Wuliangtang. This hall is very dark. I remember that in the 1970s, people didn't have air conditioning, and many citizens went there to enjoy the cool in summer. In fact, you should know that if a place is gloomy, it is actually not a good thing. People often commit suicide in the Guling Tower next to it. It's a pity that the Buddha did not avoid these obstacles. It also shows that the feng shui in the temple is not good, and it is difficult for monks to improve their spiritual skills. For Buddhists, this is a great pity. Two monks in this temple died for no reason during their recent visit to Taiwan Province Province.
There is a martyrs memorial hall in Wuliangdian in front of the temple, and a martyrs tower behind the temple. What a geomantic Jedi. If there is no real teacher to resolve it, many incredible things will happen in the future.

Public trust. Com Nanjing 1 Month 1 4th (Sun Xiangming)1Month14th At 7 o'clock in the morning, according to the telephone report of the Nanjing religious delegation to Taiwan, two Linggu Temple monks who participated in the Nanjing religious delegation were killed at Futai Business Hotel in hsinchu city, Taiwan Province Province. The abbot of Linggu Temple died in the hotel room, and the director of Linggu Temple in the same room fell to his death. According to the Taiwan Province provincial police, according to the visiting members, after preliminary investigation, Master Ran Jing was killed by him, and Master Chun Ru committed suicide.
The delegation consists of seven people, headed by Master Ran Jing. At the invitation of President hsuan chuang university of Taiwan Province Province and Master Zhong, abbot of Shandao Temple in Taiwan Province Province, the delegation went to Taiwan on 1 month 12 to attend the 10th anniversary commemoration and academic seminar of Xuanzang's parietal relic, and planned to return to Ning on 1 month/7.
The Nanjing authorities attached great importance to the accidental murder during the delegation's visit to Taiwan Province Province, and asked other members of the delegation to actively cooperate with the police investigation and find out the truth as soon as possible. At the same time, Nanjing set up a special disposal team to go to Taiwan on the same day, and the Nanjing Municipal Bureau of Religious Affairs assisted the Buddhist Association to actively do a good job in Linggu Temple and appease their relatives.
note:
At the southern foot of Nanjing Purple Mountain, there is a memorial tower for the fallen soldiers of the National Revolution built by the Kuomintang. The tower is located behind the famous Linggu Temple, and there is an ancient site called "Wuliangtang" in front of it. In front of the temple is the Red Mountain Gate, inscribed by Yu Youren, a veteran of the Kuomintang. In front of Shimen is "benevolence and righteousness", and behind Shimen is "saving the country and the people". There are 1 10 pieces of green slate in the hall, and there are more than 32,000 martyrs who died in the Northern Expedition, ranging from first-class soldiers to major generals.
About one kilometer east of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, there are towering trees and flowing water. There is a scenic spot in Songtao, Linhai-Guling Park, surrounded by Lingxiang Temple, Wangongchi, Wuliangdian, Songfengge, Guling Pagoda, Baogong Pagoda, Linggu Temple and other places of interest.
1928, the national government built a cemetery for fallen soldiers of the National Revolutionary Army at the site of Linggu Temple. Now renamed Guling Park, it is a scenic spot integrating temples, tombs and parks. Usually, people still call this area Linggu Temple.
