2. The old monk Xu Yun (1840- 1959) was a Zen master in modern times. He not only practiced Fu Hui, but also followed his career destiny, made selfless dedication, promoted dozens of Buddhist temples, preached Fa Cao Cave, and became an economic heir. It took more than 100,000 people to carry forward the Cloud Gate, help the dharma eyes, continue to admire and admire, and combine the five dharma veins to revive Zen Buddhism and update the wisdom of Buddhism.

The old monk is happy, and a good Buddha statue is a good scroll. Nineteen-year-old, determined to leave the custom, he often became a monk in Yongquan Temple in Gushan, Fujian. The following year, a Gu Shan Miaolian monk got enough precepts, named Gu Yan, also known as Yanche, whose name was Deqing. After becoming a monk, the old monk lived in seclusion in a lonely cave for three years.

Twenty-four years old, working in Gushan, holding leadership positions such as Shuitou, Yuantou, Hangtang and Dianzuo.

At the age of twenty-eight, following the example of Goode's ascetic monk Kushen, he resigned, his clothes were all scattered, and he lived in a cave, eating wild vegetables and drinking streams, looking like a savage. If so, three years. One day, when I went to a mountain in Wenzhou, I met Yi Chan. I couldn't say anything about it, so I went to the Tiantai Huading Longquan Temple to be a mirror teacher. Mr Jing Rong is over eighty years old. He is disciplined and deeply religious. Master Melting Mirror said: "Drinking and meditating in Rock Valley is similar to heresy. Although it will last for ten thousand years, it is only one of the ten immortals of Yan Yan, and it is still far from the Tao. " That is to say, the first fruit of the certificate also came from the Han Dynasty. If the Bodhisattva is sincere, he will seek the Buddha's way, descend all beings and measure himself. "Since then, the old mage who worked in the mirror has participated in" Who is Dragging a Dead Body ",learned the concept of Tiantai teaching and worked hard.

At the age of thirty-three, he was ordered to study Zen in Xiaoguo Temple and Fahua in Fangguang Temple.

At the age of 36, I visited famous temples all over the country, participated in contemporary virtues, and studied Sanzang classics.
