PHUC NGHIEM Pagoda

PHUC NGHIEM Pagoda

Referring to the Buddhist Center of ancient Vietnam (now in Thuan Thanh district, Bac Ninh), many people often think of places such as But Thap pagoda, Dau pagoda, Kinh Duong Vuong mausoleum, Sy Nhiep temple... , relics bearing the mark of Vietnamese spiritual culture. But there is still a place of meditation whose birth is associated with the "Luy Lau Buddha land", which is the To Pagoda in Man Xa village, Ha Man commune, Thuan Thanh district. Phuc Nghiem Pagoda is popularly known as Chan Pagoda, because the pagoda is located in Chan Lang village, Yen Son commune, Luc Nam district, Bac Giang province. Chan village's name is Khe Khau village, under the Le dynasty it belonged to Lan Son commune, Tri Yen district, Phuong Nhon district, Lang Giang district, Kinh Bac region. Khe Khau village has long been divided into 3 independent village units (Chan Lang, Chan Dong and Trai Cau), so Phuc Nghiem Pagoda has become a Buddhist religious building for all 3 villages. Every year, in February, on the 19th and 20th of the lunar calendar, the people of the 3 villages organize a pagoda festival that attracts a large number of Buddhist disciples and tourists from all over to visit the festival. Through surveying the relics, it is estimated that Phuc Nghiem Pagoda was built around the 14th - 15th centuries, that is, the end of the Tran Dynasty and the beginning of the Early Le Dynasty. Over five or six hundred years of history, the architectural work has gone through many restorations and repairs, so there have been many changes compared to the original style of knowledge. The architectural works that still exist today bear the architectural style of the Nguyen Dynasty with typical construction items such as: Three Jewels Court, Ancestor House, Monk's House, Ancient Tower... Direct survey of people's relics It is possible to predict relatively accurately the layout of the ancient pagoda of the early Le period. At that time (15th century), Phuc Nghiem Pagoda had a complete architectural layout in the style of "foreign domestic work", but because the two corridors and three entrance gates were destroyed by time, the current building still follows its layout. Department of Public Letters. The three-jewel building is built in the style of a "vase-shaped vase" in front with two bronze pillars covered with fruit. The Three Jewels are divided into two adjacent buildings, the Front Hall and the Buddha Hall, arranged in a mallet-shaped layout. The front hall consists of 7 ironwood houses, with 5 rows of pillars, a striped architectural structure, and simple carvings. Connected behind the front hall is the Buddha hall, 3 large spaces with the same architectural style but not carved but carefully smoothed and sharpened. In the front hall, there are a number of carved panels, with decorative motifs on the theme of four precious things, vividly reflecting the rich products of the homeland. On the gable of the Buddha hall, the ancients wrote four Chinese characters in the style of a book, with magical butterfly strokes "Boundless Wind and Moon" to praise the charming beauty of this monument. Everlasting with the three jewels, Phuc Nghiem pagoda also preserves the ancient brick tower system. This is the eternal resting place of the monks who practiced and passed away at the temple. Today, visiting Phuc Nghiem Pagoda, people can still clearly see the traces of two ancient architectural works that were damaged during the resistance war against the French. These are two corridors (where the Arhat statue is placed) and three gates. That vestige has helped today's generation to imagine the majestic scale of this monument. For a long time, Phuc Nghiem Pagoda has become a famous Buddhist center of the Truc Lam Zen sect in the lower Luc Nam district. Currently, the system of ancient statues, architectural works, and worship objects are still carefully preserved by the locality. In the Tam Bao and the ancestral house, there are over thirty ancient wooden statues of the Le - Nguyen dynasties that are very valuable. The stone stele system is lost, but the temple still retains a Tay Son bronze bell. The bell is about 100cm high (including handle), mouth circumference is 160cm. The bell handle is molded into the shape of a pair of dragons living together, the dragon's mouth spits out pearls, looking serious but gentle, not fierce like the dragons of the later Nguyen Dynasty. On the 4 segments of the bell are embossed with 4 Chinese characters, indicating the name of the bell: "Phuc Nghiem Tu Chung" (Phuc Nghiem pagoda bell). At the end of the article, there is a stray line indicating the time of casting this bell: "Eight years of the Canh Thinh dynasty, three moons, the first day of the sand, the first day of the third month of the 8th year of the Canh Thinh era (1800). create a large bell). This article engraves the meaning of bell casting, then goes on to record some of the groups and individuals who contributed to casting this bell. The bell text was composed by the monk who was the abbot of Phuc Nghiem Pagoda at that time. Finally, there is an 18-sentence long poem, written in a 4-word verse form praising the scenery of Phuc Nghiem Zen temple and the kindness and compassion of the compassionate Buddhas to bring peace to the country and people. Phuc Nghiem Pagoda is an ancient pagoda, once a place where many Buddhist scriptures were printed in the 18th and 19th centuries. Along with Chan village communal house and Noi communal house, Phuc Nghiem pagoda relics have contributed to beautifying and enriching the people. relics in the lower Luc Nam district. Furthermore, Phuc Nghiem Pagoda also preserves many ancient relics of the Le - Nguyen dynasties, so they need the attention and research and protection of the government and professional sectors./.
