The life and achievements of the master are recorded in Biography of Liang Shu Zhu Yi, Biography of Monks, Complete Works of Dunhuang Grottoes, Kingdom of Buddhism, Fayuan Zhu Lin, etc. Master Huida, a generation of eminent monks, died in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (16), in the fourth year of Moody's Shengping (AD 360) and in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 436), at the age of 76, and gave lectures for more than 40 years. Ji Hu (another kind of Xiongnu) was born in Lishi, Xihe, Bingzhou (now Lishi, Shaanxi). The young man was bohemian. He once joined the army as an assault cavalry in Liangcheng, guarding Xiangyang. At the age of thirty-one, he was in a coma for seven days because of alcoholism. After waking up, he said that he was guilty of murder and is now suffering from hell. After awakening, I was convinced that there was no doubt about cause and effect, and I resolutely became a monk in Wutai Mountain. According to the Biography of the Southern Dynasties, Andy Long 'an Liang traveled in Jianye, Danyang, Huiji and Wu Jun in the south of the Yangtze River for three years from 390 to 397. When he was worshipping the foundation of the stupa of Ashoka Temple, he felt that Buddhist relics, teeth and hair were pouring out, causing a sensation in the south of the Yangtze River. At the base of this pagoda, there is also the only national key temple named after Ashoka-Asoka Temple in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province (now Asoka Ancient Temple, with protruding rocks). The first activity in Liu Sa and Jiangnan was Jianye Chang Gan Temple. It is said that he saw the wing light of the base of the stupa in the temple, so he dug out the relics, nails and hair under the base. He thinks this pagoda is one of the 84,000 pagodas built by Asoka in India in the third century BC. There is a golden Buddha statue in the temple. Liu Sa worships this Buddha statue very much, and there is a supernatural story related to the appearance of the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue consists of a Buddha's body, a round lamp and a lotus base. Each part comes from a different place. This Buddha statue was salvaged by Yin Gaochun near Zhanghouqiao in Danyang from 326 to 334 AD (during the reign of Xianhe in the Eastern Jin Dynasty). The back of the Buddha statue is engraved with Sanskrit, which is said to be made by the four daughters of Ashoka. Gao Jian passed the alley of Chang Gan Temple with a statue of Buddha carried by a cow, but the cow hesitated and was pushed less than half a step by others. People couldn't pull the ox cart, so they had to let it go to Chang Gan Temple, and the golden Buddha statue was enshrined in the temple on the spot. The bronze lotus seat was discovered in Haikou by Zhang, a fisherman near the temple. Send it to the county government, and the county magistrate will write it on the table. The emperor ordered this seat to be placed at the foot of the Buddha statue, which is actually consistent. Later, five Indian monks came here to worship the Buddha statue, pointing out that the Buddha statue was originally round and should be found and placed on it; Sure enough, Dong Zongzhi, a pearl picker in Hepu County, Jiaozhou (now Hepu, Guangxi), found the round lamp of the Buddha statue on the seabed. As soon as the Buddha statue, the round lamp and the bronze lotus pedestal were combined, they were enshrined in the Chang Gan Temple, and the Emperor Wen of the Eastern Jin Dynasty ordered the statue to be given.

After leaving Jianye, Liu Sa lived in Xuan Tong Temple in Wu Jun (now Suzhou) for three years, and there were no stone buddhas exposed in the godless temple. This story is recorded in the Biography of the Taoist. In 3 13 (the first year of the western Jin dynasty), the stone Buddha floated on the Wusong River. The fisherman thought it was a sea god and invited Wu Zhu to meet him, which caused a storm. Wu Zhu and the fisherman returned in fear. The local Taoist priest regarded this as a statue of Zhang Tianshi, so he made sandalwood to meet the enemy, and the wind and waves were as good as ever. Later, after Zhu, a Buddhist in Wuxian, gave up bathing, several Buddhists in Boni, Tolin Temple went to the Wusong River to worship the stone Buddha, but the wind and waves were calm. Vision: Two stone buddhas come from the river, and there is an inscription behind the Buddha statue, one is Wei and the other is Wei. Athena Chu and others immediately hired a boat to take it back and dedicate it to Xuan Tong Temple. After traveling all over the south of the Yangtze River, I resolutely embarked on a long journey to the west and went to Tianzhu (ancient India) alone to learn from the scriptures and seek the Dharma. When the master went to Khotan alone (present-day Khotan County, Xinjiang), he "happened to meet" the famous monks Faxian, Hui Jing and Daozheng, and they took the westbound route together. In order to save countless sentient beings from suffering, the master risked his life. With the tenacious perseverance of "I would rather die in the West than live in the East", he crossed quicksand, climbed snow-capped mountains and crossed grasslands, and slept in the heat and cold for several days, which surprised the ferocity of the tiger and the wolf! It's like the danger of nine demons and eighteen holes is more dangerous! Pedestrians really can't stand it, and neither can people. They ate up all the human sufferings and donated several people along the way because of freezing, illness and osmium. Finally, he arrived in India through more than ten countries including Jiyi, Wuchang, Naji and Frausha (now Pakistan). He participated in the "Buddha's Tooth and Buddha's Top Bone" in Xiaoshichen Foying Cave in Luocheng, EduardoNajera, North India (now west of Avanje Bai La). Later, a number of Sanskrit Buddhist scriptures were obtained (translated into 6 scriptures, totaling 24 volumes). In the second year of Emperor Andi's reign (AD 409), Master Huida, Bao Tan and Monk Jing returned to China three years earlier than Fa Xian, and unexpectedly became the first preacher to go west to learn from the scriptures in history. (See Fa Xian Zhuan, Complete Works of Dunhuang Grottoes, and Picture Scroll of the Story of Buddhism Spreading to the East). Master Huida and his companions' feat of learning from the scriptures lasted for ten years. More importantly, they started their first trip to China to learn from the scriptures! It deserves to be the "backbone of China"!

During the period of 409-4 15, after returning to China to learn from the scriptures, Liu preached in his hometown of Shi, Ji, Ci, Dan, Yan, Wei and Lan. He was born six years ago. Officials and people once gathered to influence him and tried to portray his image in order to support him. People in eight nearby States trust him very much. Today, there is still a legend circulating in the local area. The tall red sandstone Buddha statue was carved as a memorial statue in Mazongzhuang Stone Buddha Temple (formerly longxing temple), which is separated from the stone.

From 4 15 to 436, the master once again went west to Dunhuang and Liangzhou, which was the fast lane of his life until his death in 22 years. Among them, in addition to a large number of legends and stories about pushing mountains with bare hands and guiding floods to save people, there are also many relics such as the statue of the ancient temple in the west of Jiuquan City and the meditation cave of Yunzhuan Temple in Qilian Mountain, which are well-known in Hexi Corridor. Liu Sa and his life were worshipped by people in his hometown and Hexi area. The biggest reason is that his prediction is effective. The Mogao Grottoes have a large collection of legends and stories about him, and a large number of cultural relics and stone carvings about him have also been found in Hexi area, including the "Inscription of Jade Mountain Stone Buddha in Liangzhou" in Wuwei Museum, and the Yurong Stone Buddha completed in the Northern Wei Dynasty, which has its predictions on more than 20 cliffs in the northwest of Yongchang County. Post-temple ruins related to the Yurong Stone Buddha and the stone Buddha head discovered in Qilijian; The story of Yurong Mountain Stone Buddha was also painted as Liangzhou Ruixiang, which was earlier in the Han Dynasty. Dunhuang Ruixiang picture books come from India and Khotan.

The story version of the emergence of Yurong Mountain Stone Buddha can be found in the "Shame Map of the Zen Master in Liushahe" on the south wall of Cave 72 of the Five Dynasties in Mogao Grottoes. According to the explanation, in 435 AD (during the Northern Wei Dynasty), Liu Sa went to Fanmu County, Liangzhou (now Wuwei West, Gansu 170 km, Jiaojiazhuang, Shuimoguan, Yongchang County) to worship Yurong Mountain, and everyone unknown so predicted that there was a giant Buddha on the cliff of Yurong Mountain. After that, he continued his Western Expedition and died in Qilijian, west of Jiuquan City, the following year (AD 436). One day, 86 years later, lightning and thunder thundered, and the cliff shook. Only a loud noise was heard, and a headless natural Buddha statue appeared in the stone cliff stream. People think of Liu Sa and his predictions. In order to stop the chaos in China, they immediately installed a stone Buddha's head for the headless giant Buddha, but it would fall off every time it was released, and it could not be successful. It was the Southern and Northern Dynasties when natural and man-made disasters were the most rampant in China's history. More than 30 years later, a luminous stone Buddha head appeared in Qilijian, Liangzhou (the land of nirvana of the master), which was sent to the Buddhist temple for worship, and then sent to Yurong Mountain, 200 miles away, and installed on the headless Buddha statue; In fact, the head and the wall are attached together, just like one, shining brightly, and the country and the people are safe. The people called Qingsheng everywhere and built Ruixiang Temple here. At present, the Buddha statue has been listed as a national cultural relic (the Buddha head is now in the Yongchang County Museum).

Before Emperor Wudi of the Northern Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Buddha, the Buddha's head fell for no reason and could not be installed, which was a bad omen for Emperor Wudi of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to destroy the Buddha and the Northern Zhou Dynasty to perish in 574 AD. Sure enough, not long after, Emperor Wu of the Northern Zhou Dynasty banned Buddhism, confiscated the temple property instead of calling it a Buddhist temple, and forced monks and nuns to return to the secular world. It was not until the early years of Emperor Wendi that Buddhism was revived that the Buddha was able to integrate with his head again. In 609 AD, Yang Di toured Hexi and went to Ruixiang Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. He ordered the construction of this temple, named it "Gantong Temple", and inscribed the letters of "Rong Sheng Dojo", ordering people all over the country to write the true face of the Yurongshan Buddha. This is one of the earliest auspicious stories in Dunhuang-Liangzhou Ruixiang. In the middle Tang Dynasty, the Yurongshan Giant Buddha was painted on the top of caves 23 1 and 237 together with other auspicious statues. During the period of returning to the rebel army in the late Tang Dynasty and early Song Dynasty, the back screens of Cave 6 1 and Cave 98 were developed to depict the story paintings of the giant Buddha in Yurongshan. Emperor Taizong and Zhong Zongfu continued to seal the temple to commemorate the magic of the auspicious statue of Liushahe, and officially renamed it Rong Sheng Temple. Especially in Zhenguan 18 of the Tang Dynasty, Tang Xuanzang, a famous monk at home and abroad, made a special trip to this temple to worship and give lectures for three days in order to admire the sages. As we all know, Dunhuang Grottoes are listed as world cultural heritage, which fascinates Chinese and foreign cultural celebrities. According to the records of Complete Works of Dunhuang Grottoes, Cultural Relics, Dunhuang Studies, Knowledge of Literature and History and Oriental Monthly, Master Huida's influence on Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes is very important, because he is one of the most important figures who planned the large-scale construction of Mogao Grottoes after the first opening of the two masters, Le Zun and Fa Liang. Among them, he predicted as many as 299 caves. Only the murals in Cave 203, Cave 300, Cave 323 and Cave 6 1, Cave 72 and Cave 98 of the Five Dynasties covered the important activities of the master in various periods, including becoming a monk, learning from India and spreading Buddhism in Hexi, totaling more than 30 aspects. In addition to painting his single portrait in a prominent position on the west wall of Cave 72, the words "Liusa and the Great Monk" were specially marked. From the literature of the Tibetan Sutra Cave, he has been vividly described by silk paintings, embroidery paintings and other artistic forms (see pictures 13 and 34 in "A Thousand Buddhas" by Stein et al. ), and almost all the deeds of the master are recorded in a large number of words. In a word, from the important documents of Master Huida on the construction of Dunhuang Grottoes, the master has indeed become the most important cultural giant in Dunhuang.

Here, the most sad and regrettable thing is that at the beginning of the last century, the documents of the suicide note in Dunhuang Tibetan Sutra Cave were taken away from other places (by criminals such as Britain, France, Russia and Japan), and a large number of precious materials are now hidden in the National Library of Paris, the British Museum and other places. For details, please refer to the Catalogue of Stolen Classics by the legal person Peliot.

Fortunately, Professor Bai from Lishi Normal University, who attended the International Symposium on World Religion and Art Architecture in India in 2003, unexpectedly brought back a large amount of information (copies) about Master Hui Da (Liusahe) lost in the original site of Dunhuang Tibetan Sutra Cave from the Indian Institute of International Culture. Sensational Lishi, Lvliang children exclaimed, China's Sakyamuni out of Lvliang!

What is even more striking is that the "emblem" of the international symposium on world religious and artistic architecture held in India in March 2003 actually adopted the headless Buddha statue of Yurong Mountain predicted by Master Huida. No wonder the Liusa River, which predicted the extinction of the Buddha, is famous all over the world and will last forever! No wonder he was deified by the world as avalokitesvara, and he is on a par with Buddha Sakyamuni, the twenty-second generation master, and is a symbol of the complete China of Buddhism. No wonder he predicted that the magic power of Rongshan Buddha statue and the ability of Buddha are wingless, so he was honored as Liu Sahe, Liu and Liu Moho, immortal!
