Xingji, a high monk in the Nara era in Japan, 15-year-old family Nara Jingyaoshi Temple, 24-year-old was given a foot ring. In the era when Xingji was in, the temple was only set up for the emperor and nobles. The Buddhist faith was limited to the upper society. Xingji made a wish to practice the purpose of Buddhist "pudu all beings", to promote the Buddha's law to the ordinary people, and to establish a charity and an orphanage to relieve the poor. The name of the foundation was widely known and loved by the people. In 745, the court awarded the title of the foundation of the "big monk", and then the title of "bodhisattva".
If the Xingji Bodhisattva Fountain is seen as a scenic spot, there is actually nothing special, the fountain itself is not spectacular, only this Bodhisattva in the middle of the fountain is more interesting, this Bodhisattva called Xingji is actually just a high monk in Japan at the beginning, Because of his bodhisattva heart and moved a lot of people, later also known as the Japanese Bodhisattva, in order to commemorate him in the 1970s here for him to set up such a statue and use the continuous fountain to set off him, maybe people can feel in the washing of water constantly clean To make your own mind.
