What are the "three unique woodcuts" in the Lama Temple?

There are many Buddhist instruments and countless Buddhist treasures in the Lama Temple. The most commendable is the three woodcut works called "Three Musts". What are these? This is 500 Luohan Mountain, Nanmu Buddhist Shrine and Sandalwood Buddha.

Behind the statue of Zong Kaba in Fallon Temple, there is a mountain carved with sandalwood, which is 3.40 meters high, 3.46 meters wide and 0.30 meters thick. There are five hundred arhats of gold, silver, copper, iron and tin on the mountain, which is one of the "three wonders". The whole mountain is carved with rosewood. Looking from a distance, the mountains are stacked and lush, and the forests and canyons are dotted with verdant pines and cypresses, exquisite pagodas, quaint pavilions and deep caves. Looking closely at the arhats, some meditate on the floor, some recite scriptures, some practice fists and feet, or sit or lie down, or be drunk or think, or laugh or be stupid. It's really colorful and lifelike. Unfortunately, there were only 449 arhats left on the mountain after the war.

Another masterpiece of the "Three Wonders" is in Wanfuge, also known as the Giant Buddha Pagoda, because there is a tall carved Buddha statue of Dalbergia in the pavilion, which is one of the "Three Wonders". This giant Buddha is carved from the trunk of a white sandalwood tree, with a total height of 26 meters and an underground burial of 8 meters, so it is 18 meters above ground and 8 meters in diameter. Its origin is that the Lama Temple is located on the right side of Bailin Temple, and Emperor Qianlong is afraid of affecting the geomantic omen of the forbidden area in front of the dragon. He plans to build a tall pavilion on the open space in the north of the Lama Temple to provide a giant Buddha as a barrier and to protect peace with the help of Buddha's power.

1750, Emperor Qianlong handed over the power to govern Tibet to the Seventh Dalai Lama. In order to repay the "kindness of the powerful emperor", the Dalai Lama exchanged a lot of jewels for this huge Dalbergia tree from Nepal. It took three years from Tibet to the Lama Temple via Sichuan. After that, the "Ludian" carved Buddha was built, and then Wanfuge was built. This Buddha is covered with gold, five Buddha crowns and garlands all over his body. Influenced by Tibetan cultural and artistic styles, his garlands, bracelets and gold bracelets on his arms are all inlaid with turquoise and pearls. According to records, the project cost about 82,000 taels of silver in that year, and the gown he wore used 5,400 pieces of yellow satin. Because the trunk of this Buddha statue is carved from a piece of wood, which is rare in the world, it was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records in August 1990.

"Nanmu Buddha Shrine" in the "Three Wonders" of the Lama Temple woodcut is located in the Zhaofo Building in the east wing of Wanfuge, and there is a Zhaofo statue in the building 10. According to the Buddhist scriptures, Sakyamuni went to fight and told his mother, Madame Moyev, the Nirvana Sutra. Buddhist disciples asked the Buddha to take a picture, and it was inconvenient for the painter to look directly at the Buddha when painting, so he had to ask the Buddha to stand by in the water and take pictures of the Buddha in the water, so it was called "taking pictures of the Buddha". After the Buddha statue is painted, make it out of sandalwood? The right hand bends its arm upward, calling it "the seal of fearlessness", which means that Buddha can eliminate the suffering of all beings; The left hand hangs down, named "willing to seal", which means that Buddha can fulfill the wishes of all beings.

Later, the Buddha statue based on this image was also called "Sandalwood Buddha statue". According to the Buddha House, the Buddha is a sandalwood Buddha carved in imitation of wood and cast in copper. It is very precious. There is a flame backlight behind the Buddha, carved with nanmu and painted yellow. The bronze mirror is embedded in the backlight. The sun shines and the Buddha shines brightly, making it a spectacle. But the nanmu niche dedicated to this Buddha statue is more precious. The niche is about ten meters high from the ground to the top of the building. It is supported by two golden dragon pillars. The beams are covered with gold skin of wood, and many golden dragons are carved on them, with the pattern of "Two Dragons Playing with Beads" in the middle. It is said that there are 99 golden dragons carved on the panlong columns and beams of the Buddhist shrine, and 99 three-dimensional golden dragons protruding through carving roll in the sea of clouds, with realistic shapes.
