From: Encyclopedia of China (Excerpt) Like millions of Buddhist believers in the world, Vietnamese Buddhist believers have been committed to the cause of Buddhism since ancient times. For this reason, when you come to Vietnam, you will witness the ubiquitous imprint and color of Buddhism in people's lives in this beautiful country. There are magnificent, simple and kind temples in villages all over Vietnam. Village temples are always open to welcome guests. The offerings of worshipping Buddha are generally products that people grow or process themselves, such as bananas, betel nuts, glutinous rice, sand cakes, biscuits, betel nut sweet soup and so on.

In many religious ceremonies in Vietnam, one of the beautiful customs of Buddhist believers that is often mentioned is the custom of releasing birds and fish. Release was originally a Buddhist custom. For Vietnamese people, it means cherishing life, showing great mercy and saving suffering on major festivals such as Spring Festival and Buddha's Birthday. This is also the inherent virtue of the Vietnamese since ancient times.

In addition to the release ceremony, Vietnamese Buddhist believers also hold a ceremony of "giving up one's sin and dying" on the Yulan Filial Piety Festival (July 15) of the lunar calendar every year, also known as "offering sacrifices to all beings". On this day, people pray for originality to report filial piety to their parents and ancestors, and at the same time, they don't forget to set up another altar to pray for the deceased who have not yet escaped, sacrificed and helpless, reflecting the heart of fraternity.

Like the developed countries of Buddhism in the world, Vietnam has always been a country where most people believe in Buddhism. Believing in Buddhism is just like one's own instinctive need, because it advocates the Buddhist teachings of cherishing life, magnanimity, compassion and joy. On Buddha Worship Day, an old believer looked into the distance with pious eyes and held incense in his hand, which showed the respect of Vietnamese believers for Buddhism today.

In Vietnam, one of the typical religious activities of Buddhist believers is to go to temples on the first and fifteenth day of the first lunar month to pray for peace and prosperity, family harmony and happiness of all beings. Every day, many believers, men, women and children, are welcomed to temples all over the country, and they pray to the Buddha devoutly. Guanshi Temple is the largest temple in Hanoi, the capital, and the office of the Central Buddhist Association of Vietnam. On the first and fifteenth day of the first lunar month, believers from all over the country gathered in front of the Buddha to worship solemnly.

There is a Buddha in the world, and I wish to be with him after death. According to Vietnam's long-standing tradition of ancestor worship, future generations should take care of the graves of ancestors, grandparents and parents, and burn incense for dinner on the day of death. However, considering that there is no sacrifice after death or out of preference, some people order their families to put their photos and ashes in temples to keep their souls close to the Buddha, and some people will take care of incense to avoid loneliness and hardship. This shows how colorful the Buddhist life of the Vietnamese people is.

Rural people's offering Buddha is a simple and energetic rural product, while urban people show their devotion to Buddha in a unique way. For example, in this photo, in order to present a gift before the inauguration ceremony of Daxiong Hall, believers had to personally come to the traditional craft village to customize a red-painted and gilded Buddha statue. Sang Temple is located in Qingjiang Township, Shuncheng County, Beining Province, about 30 kilometers away from Hanoi. This is the center of the ancient city of Leilou in the second century A.D. Sang Temple is the oldest temple in Vietnam and the birthplace of Vietnamese Buddhism. After nearly two thousand years of historical changes, great changes have taken place in today's Sangzi Temple. In the past, after visitors passed through the spacious three-view gate and the spacious venue, they could see nine sections of house bridges reflected in two long pools (like the house bridges that can still be seen in Hoi An), and pilgrims entered the temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. Sang Temple, built in the 2nd century AD, is the earliest Buddhist temple in Vietnam.

Like many temples in Vietnam, the interior of Sang Temple adopts the traditional architectural style of Yadong. Four rows of houses are connected in a rectangular shape, surrounded by three main rooms: the front hall, the mountain incense and the upper hall. Now that the back hall is gone, pilgrims can still see about 40 rooms. There is a Hefeng building in the middle of the compound. The tower was made of big bricks at that time, and the color was like the dark brown of a crock. With the passage of time, the six floors above have collapsed, leaving only three floors, but they are still magnificent and solid. The oldest surviving imprint of the temple was identified by archaeologists as 13rd century Chen Dynasty,1313rd century Chen Yingzong overhaul.

According to folk allusions, Mannia began to practice in Lingguang Temple (now Xianyou County) at the age of 12. One day, Mannia was sleeping, and after Zhu Xi (India) and Chanchutra accidentally passed through her body, Mannia got pregnant and gave birth to a daughter in 14 months. Before returning to Zhu Xi, Qiu Tora gave Mannia a Zhang Xi, telling him that putting it in the ground during the drought could save the people. After singing, he put his daughter in the mulberry root hole by the Tiande River.

After the monk returned, the drought lasted for three years. Mannia made rain in the fields with the pictures left by the monks. Mulberry trees fell into the river and drifted to the tired construction city. They landed when they heard a beautiful girl's voice. Mannia had the mulberry tree carved into four Buddha statues, which were called "Four Methods". The Buddha's name is Fayun, Fayu, Faye and Codex, symbolizing clouds, rain, thunder and lightning. In the process of carving, the craftsman saw a stone and threw it into the river. At night, the river is bright. It turned out to be the fossil of the daughter of the monk Cutra. This stone jumped into Mannia's boat, and Mannia dedicated it to the altar, calling it the Sage of Stone Light. Later, Mannia was honored as the Buddha's mother and practiced in the ancestral temple (Manshe). The four dharmas were enshrined in four temples in the same area. The temple was rebuilt in 20 1 1, and the Vietnamese government invested 3 million Vietnamese dong to build it.
