Lang Pagoda

Lang Pagoda

Lang Pagoda is located in Lang village. Lang or Ke Lang is the name of Yen Lang village, now in Lang Thuong ward, Dong Da district, Hanoi. Lang Pagoda has many unique characteristics, because this is a temple worshiping Buddha and Saints, associated with a famous figure of that era, Zen Master Tu Dao Hanh. During the Ly Dynasty (1010 - 1225), Buddhism flourished. Many temples were built and expanded. In Thang Long and Hanoi, during this period many pagodas were restored and built such as Tran Quoc, Hoe Nhai, One Pillar, Kim Lien and Lang pagodas. Among them, Lang Pagoda has many unique characteristics, because this is a temple worshiping Buddha and Saints, associated with a famous figure of that era, Zen Master Tu Dao Hanh. Lang Pagoda is located in Lang village. Lang or Ke Lang is the name of Yen Lang village, now in Lang Thuong ward, Dong Da district, Hanoi. Lang Pagoda is located right next to Lang Pagoda street in this ward. Lang Pagoda was built during the reign of King Ly Than Tong (1128 - 1138) right on the old house of Mr. and Mrs. Tu Vinh, who gave birth to the famous Zen master Tu Dao Hanh. Zen master Tu Dao Hanh once practiced at Phat Tich Pagoda (Sai ​​Son - Hanoi) and according to the book Hoan Long district chi, Tu Dao Hanh once went to Tay Thien to study Buddhist magic, knew how to ride clouds, step on water, fly into the sky, and crawl down. Earth, immeasurable magic. After Tu Dao Hanh went to Sai Son mountain to practice, the reincarnation was reincarnated as the son of Sung Hien marquis, (Ly Nhan Tong's younger brother) and was passed down to the throne as Ly Than Tong.(1). Lang Pagoda, in addition to worshiping Buddha, also worships Tu Dao Hanh and Ly Than Tong. Lang Pagoda's literal name is Chieu Zen Tu. The stele creating the statue of Chieu Thien Pagoda (Chieu Thien creates the image of self-compassion) was engraved in the 4th year of Thinh Duc (1656) and still kept at the pagoda, explaining the name of the pagoda as follows: "The blessed land and the sacred world only have the best Chieu Thien pagoda." . Because it has a clear good omen, it is called "Chieu". This is the birthplace of Zen Master Dao Hanh, so it is called Zen. Researching pagodas and pagoda statues of the Ly Dynasty, Associate Professor. Tran Lam Bien wrote: "A third type of pagoda originated from the Ly dynasty, which is Lang pagoda. Like Thay Pagoda and 2 Keo Pagodas (Nam Dinh, Thai Binh), this is a pagoda with a "temple"-like architecture whose temple properties in ancient times were probably quite strong. In addition to worshiping Buddha with many precious statues, great attention has been given to worshiping Saint Tu Dao Hanh as a "Taoist" ancestor. Sometimes people forget that it is a pagoda, and Tu is a monk, so his successor was once Mr. Thong or Ms. Tu as a shaman with elements of witchcraft. That's why it's difficult to find ancient towers or ancestral houses here. The above explanations are completely reasonable when we explore this temple. The pagoda has 2 three-entrance gates, of which the outer three-entrance gate is believed by researchers to have the ceremonial gate of the royal palace of the Le Trung Hung period (1533-1789) with 4 large square pillars and three small curved roofs attached to it. column rib. This three-entrance gate is considered a model three-entrance gate for other cultural works restored later such as Voi Phuc temple gate, Tay Phuong pagoda gate and Kim Lien communal house gate (Hanoi). The custom stele of Chieu Thien pagoda praises the scenery of Lang pagoda: "This world is at the top of all three thousand worlds. This Zen realm surpasses the thirty-six realms of Zen. It is truly a most famous place, no temple in the world can compare to it. The good energy of Phuong Thanh on the right spreads everywhere, the To Lich river on the left circles around. Nhi Ha thousands of miles around the capital meanders like green dragons flocking back and forth, Tan Vien mountain range is full of beautiful air heading in, like white tigers playing lutes coming to meet. This is the most beautiful scene in the Son Nam region The sacred land molds wealth and talented people; Heaven gave birth to a Holy mother, a child of Buddha."
