Legendary Life | Master Hongyi's Xiamen footprints

The frost is quiet, and the autumn events promote the west wind

Whenever the flowers are full of tall branches, the full moon hangs in the air

It will remind people of the legendary life of this genius

Today marks the 141st anniversary of the birth of Master Koichi

Countless treasures are offered to the eyes of the world, and a round of bright moon shines on the heavenly heart

The modern poet Zhao Puchu praised Master Hongyi

Ji Shi's merit is like a bright moon in the world

What kind of personality charm is it

Literati and scholars were impressed

Half a life prosperous half a monk

Li Shutong was born in 1880 in Tianjin to a family of rich merchants. Temperamental and mellow, he traveled to Japan at the age of 26 to study. Poetry and song are given to music, golden stone seal engraving and calligraphy, and Danqing literature and drama are all involved and have long been famous.

Young Li Shutong

A song "Farewell" spread throughout the country and was recognized as a great talent, scholar and artist. The Xiamen Sixth Middle School Choir once performed this famous song on the stage of CCTV.

After Li Shutong returned to China, he served as a teacher at the Zhejiang Provincial First Normal School, the originator of Chinese oil painting, the pioneer of modern song history, and the founder of Chinese drama, and his calligraphy and seal engraving also achieved extraordinary achievements.

Li Jinzhang's old collection

Uncle Li, who was gradually confused, suddenly realized that the first half of his life was like a white colt crossing the gap and had nowhere to chase. Under the influence of the master of traditional Chinese studies, Ma Yifu, he sought a way to relieve his troubles from Buddhism and resolutely decided to become a monk. Since then, there has been no more Li Shutong in this world, but one more Hongyi Master.

In 2008, in order to commemorate the relationship between Master Koichi and Nikko-iwa-ji Temple, the "Koichi Master Memorial Garden" was built, which was built on a high platform on the west side of the temple, and there is a statue of the master in the garden.

The "two-one old man" returned to the basics

In his later years, Master Hongyi gave himself a name, called "Eryi Old Man". "I often reflect on myself, feeling that my virtue is really lacking... I remember that the ancients had a poem that said that nothing is getting older than adults, and that a penny is not worth saying, so I use it to make my own name."

Before his death, Master Hongyi wrote an appendix to the "Testament" to his friend Xia Junzun and his disciple Liu Zhiping.

A gentleman's friend, its light as water.

Clinging to the elephant and seeking, thousands of miles away.

Asked Yu Heshi, Gur said deadly.

The branches are full of spring, and the moon is full in tianxin.

Master Koichi's handwriting is dying

From a famous man, to a generation of senior monks

The footprints left by Master Hongyi in Xiamen
