Autumn: Pure is the heart

Time: 14th August, 2015

When the spring with luxuriantly blooming flowers goes away, when the summer with lush green mountains goes away, here comes the most elegant and fresh autumn of Mt. Emei. On an autumn morning when the sky is clear and the wind is gentle, come to Mt. Emei and get close to the nature, and you will get into a beautiful world where human is an integral part of the nature.

It is worth keeping in mind that the best season in a year is when the fruits can be harvested. Autumn in Mt. Emei is full of glistening yellow: flaming maple leaves, yellow leaves of Cotinus-coggygria, lush Phoebe zhennan and brilliant Populus are all immersed in the luxuriant yellow and green. Crimson azuki beans and little cypress seeds are like pretty agate inlaid onto colorful blankets. The mountain, the water, the clouds and the sky complement each other's beauty, drawing a fascinating painting of the golden autumn.

Living in the hustle and bustle of cities, people are far away from the nature for so long that they are estranged from the nature. When getting to Mt. Emei and getting closer to the nature, you can feel sunshine and springs everywhere. You can also gaze into the distance to enjoy the forests, and inhale fresh air. Here is the place endowed by the nature, the breeding ground of life, and the Garden of Eden for health.

Appreciate with every part of your body: feel the poetic mind of Li Bai, listen to the babble of the Black River and White River and enjoy the oxygen bar, sun bath and pure water given by the nature. When night falls, you can listen to the music played by the nature in the tents in the bright moon light: the mountain breeze strokes the forest like the silkworms chewing mulberry leaves and thousands of steeds galloping.

A safe and happy trip is like the timely rainfall in the morning and the residual heat of the setting sun. With the whole body and mind immersed in the nature, you will experience the nature unmindfully and feel the spirituality of the nature with full devotion to the nature.

Fuhu Temple is a peace and quiet place. When autumn comes, seat yourself at a corner of the temple and taste a cup of tea. The tea leaves are fresh green and tea tastes fresh. Watching the monks in brown robes sweeping the stone steps, and hearing the sound of reading, a mixed feeling will arise from the bottom of your heart.

Have a rest in the Qingyin Pavilion and you will hear the sound of the river, which is like pearls falling on a jade plate, the wind blowing the pine forest and the birds singing in the trees. Sounds of the nature are the most attractive concert in the world. When you get lost in the music, a sudden Buddhist sound pierces the sky, filling your ear. You will feel pure in your heart as if you have just been baptized.

It is never too tired to enjoy the green mountains and clear waters, and there is a temple deep in the clouds. Strolling into Wannian Temple, you can burn a stick of incense and bow and worship Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, who will bless you a mature, harvesting, successful and kind-hearted life, and help you realize your wishes.

Touring Mt. Emei in autumn may satisfy your pious hearts.
