China's fairy tale Nu Wa created people from the earth with the intention of prospering the world and making the people she created healthy and long-lived. It is said that Huangdi, the ancestor of the Chinese nation, ascended to heaven with his body. The Bible also says that God created Adam from clay in the image of God, with the intention of letting people manage the world. God was afraid of Adam's loneliness, so he made Eve out of one of Adam's flank bones and made Adam a spouse. Satan, an invisible and spiritual devil, attached himself to the snake and opened his mouth to lure Eve and Adam to steal the forbidden fruit. After Adam was expelled from the Garden of Eden, he worked hard to support his family, but he still lived to 930 and died. The origin of life is disease-free, and the meaning of life is happiness. People once fantasized about some mysterious power in order to coexist with heaven and earth. Qin Shihuang sent Xu Fu to lead boys and girls across the sea to seek immortality. Chang' e ate the fairy medicine and ran to the moon; Liu Chen and Ruan Zhao go to the rooftop to eat Xiantao. They consciously stayed in the mountains for only half a year, only to go home and see their great-grandchildren after seven generations.
According to the spirit of the Book of Changes, a gentleman always strives for self-improvement. The terrain is Kun, and the gentleman is virtuous; Heaven, earth, man and talent should be more and more harmonious and unified. According to the principle of five elements, everything has its vanquisher, and there should be no incurable disease. According to the viewpoint of evolution, the process of evolution is moving in an excellent, balanced and beautiful direction. According to the information transmitted by genetic science, the mature age multiplied by eight is the law of life, and people should live to at least 150-200 years old.
A large number of examples show that human beings have been looking for methods and materials for healthy and long life since ancient times. So, do Zhao Xiuxiang, Zhao Xiuju and people at the foot of Dalu Mountain know how to live long and have longevity materials? Song Lifu, who is committed to the research on the aging of Rushan, said in the investigation on the reasons for the longevity of centenarians in Rushan: "Longevity genes, stable social environment, good family environment, suitable lifestyle and positive attitude towards life are not unique to Rushan, but also exist in other regions, and the only excellent natural environment is Rushan's greatest advantage, which is beyond most regions." Why does his research conclude that the natural environment can't be achieved elsewhere?
Unique climate. There is no heat in summer and no cold in winter. This sentence is more suitable to describe the climate of Dalu Mountain. Dalu Mountain Scenic Area faces the sea and is surrounded by mountains. In summer, the sea breeze is cool and natural. In winter, the north wind is in season, and the mountains are like walls, which block the cold and store the warmth. The uniqueness lies in this "wall" or "multi-layer". In the whole Rushan area, Mount Kunyu, Ma Shishan and other mountains form a crescent-shaped barrier, which blocks the chilly north wind and forms a "Rushan climate" of warm winter; Dalu Mountain forms a barrier with the surrounding mountains, which blocks the wind from the north again, and the temperature adjustment of seawater forms a unique "Dalu Mountain Climate". Its temperature is moderate, humidity is appropriate, and the air is fresh and extremely pleasant.
The soil is unique. Darushan scenic spot resident, hilly landform, sandy land. According to the analysis of agricultural departments, its soil is "nutrient soil" and "non-toxic mud", which is rich in various minerals needed by human body and does not contain any harmful elements. The grain, fruits and vegetables produced here are all pure in taste. Sandy hillside, because of its good water permeability and drainage, can't stay in the soil even if it has been applied with chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
The water quality is unique. There are many wells around Dalu Mountain, and the water is milky white. When people call it "white serous water", its water is sweet. White serous water appears at the foot of Dalu Mountain, and the myth of maternal love makes people feel amazing. It is regarded as the milk of the virgin Mary, so it is also called the "holy milk spring". In Dalushan area, even if it is not milky well water, the drinking taste is quite good. Well water is all weakly alkaline, which is a rare high-quality drinking water.
Unique products. The Dalushan area is rich in seafood and mountain plant resources. Rushankou in the west, Langnuankou in the east, a large area of open water, gentle tide and less wind and waves. Rushan River and Huang Lei River run into the sea, bringing a lot of natural bait, which is very suitable for shellfish growth. Therefore, oysters, sea red (mussels) and clams (variegated clams) produced along the coast of Dalu Mountain are of good quality and have been famous all over the country since ancient times. Especially oysters, there is a beautiful legend. It is said that when Notre Dame became Dalu Mountain, some milk was dripped on the coast for the sake of children's livelihood and became shellfish attached to rocks. Its meat color is as white as milk, and it can be eaten raw and cooked. It is rich in nutrition and delicious, so it is called "mother drain" and later written as oyster. There are quite a lot of wild vegetables in Darushan area, among which bracken, shepherd's purse, bitter vegetable, purslane and Veronica are the most famous. There are many medicinal materials on the edge of Rushan Mountain. There are 738 species of plant medicinal materials 155 families in Rushan, most of which are concentrated here, among which motherwort, mint, madder, perilla, cattail, yam and Ziziphus jujuba seeds are of high quality.
Diet is unique. People in Xiasan Village of Dalu Mountain have had the habit of "night porridge" since ancient times, that is, drinking noodles for dinner. When wheat is planted less, it is to drink sweet potato noodles (commonly known as sweet potato soup). It's not strange to drink noodles, but it's strange to pour noodles in the "soup brine". There was no monosodium glutamate before, and the meat and juice of shellfish were necessary materials for making fresh brine. In other words, people living here can get the nutrition of shellfish almost every day. The molecular structure of chitin in shellfish is similar to that of plant cellulose, but its function is incomparable with that of plant cellulose. Although chitin was finally deposited in the shell, it was "generated" in the shell meat. This substance is called "the sixth factor of life" after protein, fat, sugar, minerals and vitamins by scientific and technological circles, and it has a particularly strong effect on removing garbage from the body. In addition, people who live long at the foot of Dalu Mountain have the habit of drinking tea. They drink all kinds of tea, including ordinary tea and homemade "earth tea". The so-called earth tea is "tea" fried with mangosteen, chrysanthemum, Qin Huang leaves, honeysuckle, pomegranate leaves and shredded melon pulp. They enjoyed it with relish. People in Dalushan also have the habit of eating wild vegetable residue (also called bean curd or wild vegetable tofu). Wild vegetables can cure diseases. Many patients with chronic diseases have been relieved or eliminated by eating the dregs of wild vegetables.
Unique culture. The legend of maternal love in which the three sisters and the righteous sister fought against the siren, saved the children and repelled the wild waves gave birth to the culture of maternal love and filial piety. Attaching importance to family, affection, faith, harmony, kindness and courtesy are the main tone of folk customs here. Harmonious and smooth, polite and safe, broad-minded, healthy, mental state and physical function interaction. There is a local tradition that married women sincerely worship Dalu Mountain and pray that they can become mothers and be respected by their husbands after marriage. After the children angered their parents, they also worshipped Dalushan and vowed to honor their parents in this life; These activities have played a very good role in inheriting and carrying forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. Good cultural traditions are certainly beneficial to people's psychological adjustment and physical and mental health.
Even myths and legends are reflections of real life. Although the ancient people's exploration of immortality and immortality was not successful, the research on longevity has achieved fruitful results. Huangdi Neijing said: "Yin Pingyang is the secret, and God is the cure", "If you work, you will be cured, and if you don't work, you will be treated indiscriminately." This is the earliest theoretical exposition of preventive medicine. Clinicians treat diseases, and a prescription can only be aimed at one patient; The preventive doctor has cured the disease, and a prescription should be universal. In contrast, clinical medicine is passive medicine and preventive medicine is active medicine. Therefore, in terms of physical conditioning, people take the initiative to carry out "three major interventions": First, adjust consciousness, sort out psychological problems, and eliminate bad mental factors. The second is to adjust behavior, exercise moderately, eat scientifically and correct bad living habits. The third is to adjust drugs, prevent diseases and treat diseases early, especially taking foods that reduce blood fat and soften blood vessels. Making these adjustments means staying healthy.
Judging from the "six elements" of unique climate, unique soil quality, unique water quality, unique products, unique diet and unique culture, Dalushan area is a rare health-preserving paradise in the world. There may be one or two "six elements" in other places, but they are all concentrated in one place. As far as I know, only Dalushan. Everything is interactive, and the "elements" complement each other and are indispensable. This is just like the prescription of Chinese medicine. Drugs that are compatible together have their own "mission". If one is missing, the whole prescription will be "wasted". Therefore, Darushan can't be compared with other places, and it can't be copied. If you want to achieve the best health care effect, you have to go to Dalushan to receive "edification" and "baptism".
In real life, there are many examples of physical and mental rehabilitation in Darushan Scenic Area. Liu, an employee of Rushan Petroleum Company, suffers from hypertension and insomnia. She retired from the army and went back to her husband's family, Xihuangdao Village, to live for some time. I didn't want to stay too long, but my blood pressure dropped and I lost sleep. To my surprise, she negotiated with her husband and moved to live with her family. Chi Hongtai, a fellow villager, lives in the city with his son because his children are working outside. Because the cold left chronic bronchitis, all treatments were ineffective. Later, he lived in his hometown for a few days and found that his condition had improved. He was puzzled and said to everyone, "I don't have a life in a big city." People who work in Jiangjiazhuang Village and xishan village should bring some "Shengruquan" well water back to the city when they go home. According to them, work and life are stressful and they feel weak and uncomfortable. If you drink the water from your hometown, your stress will be relieved and your energy will be restored.
Darushan Scenic Area integrates mountains, seas, beaches, bays and islands. Rushankou Bay is surrounded by clear water, and Little Qingdao, Pudao, Dujia Island and Nanhuangdao are surrounded by stars. There are really mountains and peaks, and the islands have scales. The beauty is very natural and makes people feel relaxed and happy. Especially in the sunrise or sunset, islands, beaches and green hills are like a dream world against the backdrop of waves. There is no boundary between heaven and earth, and mortals are immortal, without affiliation or division. Such a beautiful and magical place, the stored essence of the sun and the moon, and the aura of heaven and earth are all beyond our explanation. In addition to the "six elements", there may be secrets in the health legend of Dalushan. The existing scientific "eyesight" can only observe things from the three-dimensional space of "length, width and height", so human beings have not found the edge of the universe so far. If the universe is four-dimensional, five-dimensional, or even more, then many things can't be explained clearly with the existing cognitive ability for a while.
We will continue to explore Dalu Mountain, a healthy and blessed land. Also welcome more friends to join the health experience and field exploration! Dalushan has become the birthplace of maternal love culture because of the beautiful legend of the Three Virgin Mary saving all beings. It is also because of the touching story of the pharmacist Buddha opening Hulu Mountain that it has become a place with profound health culture. Motherly love nurtures blessed land, and blessed land can preserve health. The two are mutually causal and complementary. The Darushan area is surrounded by mountains and water rings with beautiful scenery. Since ancient times, it has been a blessed place for health and longevity. According to research, the average life expectancy of people living here is very long. China's oldest twins, Zhao Xiuxiang and Zhao Xiuju, are now 98 years old and live at the foot of Daru Mountain.
Hulu Mountain, located on the southeast coast of the main peak of Daru Mountain, is called Huludao by local people. But she is neither an island surrounded by water on all sides, nor Huludao city outside the province, but a hill in the Dalu Mountain system, which is said to be cultivated by the treasure gourd of Tie Guai Li, one of the Eight Immortals.
It is said that one day, "barefoot fairy" (also known as iron-footed fairy) Wang Yuyang came here to visit Dalu Mountain, and Dalu Mountain was transformed into three Virgin. It happened that the Eight Immortals were here. Wang Yuyang said that the story of three Notre Dame Cathedrals saving the world touched many people, and everyone guarded and loved her. Even the ginseng dolls in Changbai Mountain moved to Dalu Mountain to provide nutrition for Notre Dame. The magpie fairy and Firefox who care for XiaoRushan Xiantao have also paid a lot for this rich land. You just came to see the beautiful scenery and eat Xiantao. Aren't you going to do something?
Tie Guai Li said, we have this intention. When Notre Dame became Mount Dalu, for the sake of children's livelihood, there was little milk dripping on the coast, which became a kind of reef shell. Its meat is as white as milk, it can be eaten raw or cooked, it is nutritious and delicious, so it is called oyster (that is, oyster-the author added). If there are some gods here to eliminate the plague and avoid the epidemic, so much the better, it will really become a paradise on earth, and it will better reflect the great love will of the three Notre Dames. While speaking, he threw the treasure gourd in his hand to the south, and suddenly it became a gourd mountain by the sea. Medicinal plants such as Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, Adenophora adenophora, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Polygonum Multiflori Radix, Platycodon grandiflorum, Bupleurum, Polygonatum odoratum, Acanthopanax Senticosus, Perilla frutescens and Artemisia capillaris are growing on the mountain and the foot. He Xiangu also jumped up, shaking the flower basket, and a goddess came to scatter flowers, and exotic flowers and herbs spread all over Dalu Mountain. All of a sudden, the aroma here is overflowing, reaching the sky, and the turbid gas is not committed, and the poisonous insects are far away.
Just as the Eight Immortals showed their magical powers, a piece of auspicious clouds floated in, and the pharmacist Buddha came here wearing a golden Buddha dress, bare chest and arms, and a blue shirt. He has a solemn manner, black hair and a bun, his ears are shouldered, his right hand holds the branch of St. Chebra, and his left hand holds the Buddha bowl. Wang Yuyang and the Eight Immortals quickly paid their respects. The pharmacist Buddha put his hands together and said, "The Notre Dame has turned into Darushan to save the people, and sacrificed his life for the people's love, which is admired by both gods and mortals. It is a great kindness for the immortal to spread Huize in Lan Zhi and Cao Ling. I, the Buddha, are merciful and willing to bless the treasure with all the immortals to ensure the health and happiness of the people in all directions. " Subsequently, the pharmacist Buddha chanted the "Twelve Wishes", baptized Hulu Mountain, prayed for all beings, and eliminated disasters and extended life. The immortals also realized the true meaning of universal love, and respected the Notre Dame three times more. They planned to protect the whole world and make all beings live a long and healthy life according to the great love of Notre Dame.
Later, in order to realize the "integration of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism" and jointly benefit the people of the whole country, Wang Yuyang and Qiu Chuji helped Master Wang Zhongyang to establish Quanzhen religion in Jiaodong Peninsula. Yuxu Temple in Feng Jia Town, Rushan City was once one of the three Taoist temples in northern China, where Wang Yuyang lived in his hometown for more than 30 years. Wang Yuyang founded the Lushan Sect of Quanzhen religion here, and advocated "the unity of heaven and man" on the basis of the doctrine of "three religions in one" of Quanzhen religion. The highest achievement of his Taoist philosophy and health culture has been carried forward in Rushan.
It is precisely because of the above legends that the local custom of offering sacrifices to the pharmacist Buddha has emerged. It has been passed down from generation to generation and continues to this day. My mother believes in Buddhism. When she was young, she set up a shrine for a long time to worship the pharmacist Buddha. At that time, grandma was weak and sick, and the children's eagerness to pray for their mother's early recovery could be imagined. Later, due to the well-known reasons of the times, she did not set up a Buddhist shrine in her husband's family, but the education of our brother and sister and the Buddhist thought of Purdue have been going on. 1970 I started working as a barefoot doctor in the village, and my mother was very happy. "Being a boy who delivers medicine to a doctor before a pharmacist's knee is a blessing that you learned in your last life." This is what my mother often encourages me.
As all the old Chinese medicine practitioners know, Deng Qin is often mentioned in classic medical books, which refers to Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi produced in Rushan, named after Rushan once belonged to Dengzhou. In the mid-1960s, President Mao Zedong called for the focus of medical and health work to be placed in rural areas. Subsequently, all production brigades started cooperative medical care. Rich brigade, members of free medical care; If the economic conditions are poor, at least half of the medical expenses will be reduced for the masses. Master and I often go to Hulu Mountain to collect herbs. Hulu Mountain has many varieties and good quality, which is the best in North China. Polygonatum odoratum is an underground rooting plant. Once, we dug up a plant that weighed half a catty. It is common to dig out oversized Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi, Polygonum Multiflori Radix, Adenophora adenophora and Saposhnikovia divaricata. Now it seems to be a rare treasure. Unfortunately, we didn't have the consciousness of collecting specimens at that time. The collected Cheba Cheba is used as a common medicine after sun drying.
"In order to save money, the superior called for" three soil and four self "and" soil single prescription "to reduce the cost of medicine. Barefoot doctors grow their own herbs and make their own medicines, which was the fashion of that era. There is no pharmaceutical factory in our village to grind Chinese medicine into fine powder. Boat-shaped medicine mill with pedal is out of stock. Later, Jiang was discovered and wanted to give us his medicine roller. During the war, he learned some medical knowledge from the doctors of the Eighth Route Army. After returning to his hometown to farm, he prepared some powder for the treatment of trauma and sores for patients free of charge. On the day Master Zhao and I went to get the medicine roller, Jiang solemnly told us that I was almost 80 years old and could not grind the medicine. I'm relieved to give you the medicine roller. " This is what I said in the article "Fisherman Heroes in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression" (Under the Mountain of Dalu, 173). Jiang, who lives in Hulu Mountain, was the president of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Association of fishermen in the eastern coastal areas of China, such as Wen, Rong, Yi, Mou, Hai and Jiao (Rushan City Records, 990 pages). There is no lack of true feelings in the world, and heroes also have bodhisattva hearts. He waited for the medicinal materials from Hulu Mountain and used them to cure many intractable diseases for the villagers.
It is gratifying that the concept of scenic spot construction of Rushan Victoria Bay Tourism Development Company has well inherited the regional culture of Rushan, and vigorously carried out the construction of health culture on the basis of widely promoting maternal love culture. At present, the world's largest glazed pharmacist Buddha Hall and the Sun and Moon Twin Towers have been built in Hulu Mountain, which makes the pharmacist Buddha health culture return to reality from legend, inherit and carry forward the society and actively serve the public.
Pharmacist Buddha, also known as pharmacist glazed Buddha, is a pharmacist Buddha who can eliminate disasters and prolong life. He can cure all kinds of diseases of all living beings. According to his twelve wishes of "Buddha's life, career development, endless endowment, building a road to peace, abstinence from purity, taking root, physical and mental recreation, unity of form and spirit, returning to evil, freeing from bondage, wonderful diet and wonderful clothes", all kinds of troubles and pains will gradually decrease. The two bodhisattvas, the sun and the moon shine together, are the two sons of the pharmacist Buddha, named Rizhao and Yuezhao respectively, and they are both father's right-hand men. The series of buildings of Pharmacist Buddha aims to further guide tourists to understand Buddhist ideology and culture from the rites and buddhas, follow the law of peaceful and uncontested life and advocate reconciliation, understand the true meaning of health-preserving culture in the Twelve Wishes, and enjoy the happiness brought by health-preserving, so as to achieve the goal of health and longevity.
Rushan is the hometown of longevity in China, and Darushan is the source of longevity. Dalushan health culture has a long history, extensive and profound, and visiting it in person will satisfy people's desire to increase happiness and longevity in this unique health environment.
