The poems related to the West Zen Temple were written by Yu Liangneng of the Song Dynasty,"West Zen Temple":"A thousand pillars press down on the shade of the city, and the mountain is surrounded by Lushan Mountain and two forests. In June, there is no summer heat under the eaves, and there is a clear sound in the mountains and rivers all year round. Birds fly not far above, whales roar can not hear the depth of the courtyard. I want to write a poem to express my good mood. Panlin always cares about it." In addition, there were also some stories related to the West Zen Temple that involved the creation of poems. For example, Lun Wenxu had some interesting stories in the West Zen Temple, but he did not mention the specific content of the poems.

Temple-related poems often contained a strong Zen meaning. In the Tang Dynasty's Chang Jian's "Poshan Temple Zen Courtyard","Early morning into the ancient temple, the first sunlight in the high forest." The winding path leads to a secluded place, and the meditation room is full of flowers and trees. The light of the mountain is pleasing to the birds, and the shadow of the pool is empty to the hearts of the people. The poet entered the ancient temple in the early morning. The rising sun shone on the tall woods. The winding path led to a quiet place. The meditation room was deep in the flowers and trees. The mountain light made the birds happy, and the reflection of the pond made one's heart empty. Finally, all was silent except for the sound of bells and chimes. Through the description of the temple environment, an ethereal and quiet Zen atmosphere was created. Li Bai's " Overnight in the Mountain Temple " wrote," The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and the hand can pick the stars. The exaggerated description implied that the mountain temple seemed to be connected to Tavern Heaven on Earth, expressing a sense of transcendence and a certain Zen. Jia Dao's "Sushan Temple" said: "The peaks are cold, and the fine houses are divided here." Meteors pass through the water and run away from the moon and the clouds. Few people come to the top of the mountain, and the tall pine trees and cranes are not flocks. The description of the cold peaks, the location of the temple, the shooting stars and the moon, and the ignorance of the 80-year-old monk all reflected a Zen realm that was far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Xin Qiji's " Parcolin Sky·Boshan Temple " wrote," Don't go up Chang 'an Road. I'll teach the mountain temple to hate flattery. Taste tasteless place to seek my happiness, material or not between this life. It is better to be me than to be a minister. I've traveled all over the world, but I've returned to farming. The poet did not pursue fame and fortune. His association with the mountain temple, his insistence on his independent personality, and his regard of pine, bamboo, flowers, and birds as friends and brothers showed a kind of Zen that transcended the secular world and returned to the original. Su Shunqin's " Inscription on the Wall of the Flower Mountain Temple " wrote," The mountain in the temple is named after the flowers. From the current situation of Huashan Temple, it elaborated on the phenomenon of flowers withering and grass growing. It hinted that life required hard work, just like taking care of the flowers and plants in the temple, which contained the perception and Zen of the world. Lin Bu's "Lonely Mountain Temple on the end of the people's room to write Wang""At the bottom of the place against the Lan thought, Lonely Mountain Pagoda behind the west." The gloomy painting scroll in the forest temple, scattered chess board on the field. Sometimes a lone bird flies in the autumn scenery, and the setting sun has nothing to do with cold smoke. The poet looked at the distant view of the people's houses in the Gushan Temple. The scenery he saw was like a gloomy painting axis, with birds, cold smoke and other scenes, reflecting a kind of remote and quiet Zen. In addition, Dai Shulun's Crossing the Mountain Temple with Friends, Meng Guan's Sushan Temple, Zhang Hu's Inscription on Gushan Temple in Hangzhou, Xue Feng's Dingshan Temple, Ye Yuansu's Mountain Temple, Shu Tan's Lushan Temple, Zhao Wei's Late Sushan Temple, Zhu Derun's Spending on Jiaoshan Mountain, Chen He's Wangjin Mountain Temple at Jingkou, Song Juye's Shuangfeng Mountain Temple, Qi Wuqian's Lanruo, etc. also described temples from different angles or described the natural environment of temples.

The secluded birds chirped and whistled chaotically, and the evening sun continued to shine between the cloudy and dark. The poet untied his belt and wanted to get drunk here and forget to return. He was very satisfied with drinking and making merry. The novel "Listening to the Rain in Green Bamboo and Watching the Egrets" is equally wonderful. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!

If you can stay away from the world, you can see the Tathagata body. 2 "Meditation"-Su Shi of the Song Dynasty Holding a wooden collar in hand, I learned to sit in meditation, read books in the dark, and taste tea carefully. When will the fireworks of the mortal world stop laughing at themselves? 3 "Peace of Mind"-Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty Right and wrong are only for the sake of speaking more, and sickness is often due to lack of strength.

Clouds rise and smoke extinguish on the faraway mountains. If life is only like the first time, what is the autumn wind sad painting fan?

There are many kinds of Zen poems. The following are some examples. Some Zen poems expressed their views on the world, such as "Everything in the world is not as good as the mountain, only to return to this old face." I slept at noon and woke up in a clear dream. The birds chirped several times, and the green shade was spotted. Life has wine to enjoy, wealth and floating clouds do not climb. However, if he was free, why not let the sun and moon circulate on their own? It reflected a kind of attitude that looked down on worldly affairs and pursued leisure and freedom. There were also some who wrote from the cultivation of the mind, such as "The old Zen master's heart was originally flat, and a little bit of the spiritual altar was light." Don't fight for gains and losses in the world, but let losses and gains happen outside the world. Before the wind, the bamboo shadow shook the window, and after the rain, the lotus fragrance sat down. I am also fated to find the Old Covenant, and when we meet, we will talk about no life."It expressed the inner peace, not disturbed by the gains and losses of the world, and the state of mind that was free and easy outside of things. There was also a Zen poem that started from the understanding of the world and life." Everything is like cultivating the spirit, and one's heart is always corresponding to the Tao. It's really fun to have fun in peace, but it's always a monk who gets carried away in leisure. When the clouds come out of the mountains, the mountains are free, and the moon is high in the sky, where the water is clear and ice.

Xuankong Temple was the only temple in China that combined Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Inside the temple were statues of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. It was a rare temple in China that combined the three religions. There was no specific information about Zen and Buddhism in the literature. Therefore, I am not clear about the relationship between Zen and Buddhism in Xuan Kong Temple.
The author of " The Broken Zen Courtyard of the Temple on the Back Mountain " was the Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi. This poem was an idyllic poem written by Bai Juyi when he was traveling in Chang 'an. It depicted mountain temples, stream pavilions, wild paths, shade of trees, flowing water, and other scenery. It expressed the poet's praise for nature and his thoughts on life. This poem's language was fresh and natural, and its artistic conception was profound. It was considered one of the representative works of the Tang Dynasty's idyllic poetry.
The meaning of this sentence was to express philosophical thoughts through poetry and to express the path of Zen cultivation through words. This kind of expression is often used in literary works because poetry has a unique rhythm and rhythm that can better convey the author's thoughts and emotions. At the same time, the word is also a literary form, usually used to express philosophical thoughts or emotions, and its rhythm and rhythm are more beautiful.
Zen and poetry were often closely linked, providing a unique perspective for people to understand the world of mortals. It could be seen from many ancient poems, such as Liu Shang of the Tang Dynasty's "The void has no place, like glass." The Zen mind transcended the realm of poetry. This realm was a deep understanding of abstract concepts such as the void, allowing people to feel the emptiness and nothingness of the world through the taste of poetry. Qingjiang's poem " Return to South India, Zen Heart is Lonelier " portrayed a quiet and lonely Zen realm. It also hinted at the state of mind after being far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. In the world of mortals, people were often disturbed by all kinds of hustle and bustle, and this lonely Zen heart formed a sharp contrast with the hustle and bustle of the world of mortals, prompting people to think about the true peace of the heart. In modern times, there were also some expressions such as "Zen Heart of Cloud Water, Poetic Words." Time made people understand, time made people understand. When the wind blew a leaf, everything was already shocked by autumn. Riches and riches are but a thin frost on the grass that disappears in the blink of an eye; splendor is but a clear dew on the flowers that disappears in a flash." The description described the view of wealth and splendor in the world of mortals in a poetic way. It believed that these were as short as a thin frost in the face of time, reminding people not to be overly obsessed with the fame and fortune of the world, but to pursue a more open-minded and detached state of mind. In general, the Zen Heart Poetry was like a mirror, allowing people to examine themselves, fame, fortune, emotions, and many other aspects of the mortal world through the poetic Zen expression. From there, they could obtain a deeper understanding of the mortal world and find inner peace and detachment. "Let go and become a Buddha, draw your saber!" The novel is equally exciting.
