嵩山少林寺
女士们、先生们，
欢迎大家来到河南，我是您本次河南之行的地接导游员，我的名字叫温辉辉。
我们今天要去参观的是中国禅宗的发源地———少林寺。
少林寺建于北魏年间，因其建于嵩山少室密林之中，故定名“少林寺”。
少林寺被称为世界佛教“禅院”，特别是在唐代赢得“世界第一名刹”的美誉。
少林寺之所以出名有两个原因:就是“禅”和“武”。
第一，它是中国佛教禅宗的发源地。
禅宗是佛教中的一个重要的派别,它融合了中国本土的宗教和儒家思想的一部分内容而形成的，对中国文化有深远的影响。
“禅”，就是安定、排除杂念的意思，尤其它提倡平常心。
少林寺闻名于世的第二个原因就是武术。
中国是武术的故乡，具今已有两千多年的历史了，在漫长的历史发展过程中，中国武术形成了南北两大派，内外两家,少林武术是被公认的武术正宗之一。
那么这座古老的寺庙到底是什么样子的呢？请跟随我的脚步让我们走进少林寺，通过我的讲解会让您更加的了解少林寺。
我们现在看到的是少林寺的大门是清代建筑,“少林寺”三字，由康熙皇帝题写。
大家看，在入口的宫殿佛龛供奉的是大肚弥勒佛，他慈眉善目，微笑着迎接你的到来。
我们现在看到是第二进建筑天王殿，天王殿的原建筑于1928年被石友三烧毁。
这是1982年重修的，殿门外的两大金刚，传为“哼”、“哈”二将，职责是守护佛法。
大殿内侧塑的是四大天王，又称四大金刚，它们的职责是视察众生的善恶行为，扶危济困、降福人间。
人们根据四大天王的组合特点，寓意“风调雨顺”。
大雄宝殿是全寺的中心建筑，是僧人进行佛事活动的重要场所。
殿内正中供奉的为现世佛释迦牟尼如来佛，左为过去佛东方净琉璃世界的药师佛，右为未来佛-西方极乐世界的阿弥陀佛另外，
在该殿中间有两根大柱下还有麒麟雕像，预示了禅宗佛教是完全汉化的中国式的佛教。
游客朋友们今天我们参观了少林寺，您是否领悟到禅并且欣赏到少林武术的精彩了呢？我们都知道武术能强身健体，希望您能将少林功夫带回家乡，希望您及家人有一个强壮的身体。
Shaolin Temple.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to Henan。
I am your tour guide .My name is Whui Huihui.Today we are going to visit the birthplace of Chinese Zen Buddhism['budizəm] 佛教-- Shaolin Temple.The Shaolin Temple began construction at Northern Wei Period. Because it is located in Shaoshi in the mountain jungle, "Shaolin Temple" is thus named .
Then what on earth does the ancient temple look like? please follow my steps to walk into the Shaolin Temple. Through my explanation will let you know more about Shaolin Temple and Shaolin KungFu .
Shaolin Temple is known as the "Zen center of Buddhism in the world", and won the fame of "the First Ancient Temple" in Tang Dynasty.
Shao Lin Temple is famous for two reasons: Zen and Chinese KungFu. Zen is an important branch of Buddhism. It mingles Chinese native religion and Confucian thought. It has profound effects on Chinese culture. Zen means calmness and a life without desires. It advocates to deal with everything with a quiet attitude.
Chinese Kung Fu is the second reason which makes Shao Lin Temple well known in the world. China is the hometown of Kung Fu, which has a history of over 2,000 years. During the long period of development, Chinese Kung Fu has fallen into two branches: the north branch and the south branch. Shao Lin Kung Fu is recognized as the authentic Kung Fu. Now let's look at the gate of Shaolin Temple. It is the Qing Dynasty construction. The three characters "Shaolin Temple"
were written by Emperor Kangxi of Qing Dynasty。
In the entrance of palace, there is a niche壁龛[nitʃ] for a statue of Buddha佛陀['budə] ----the big stomach Maitreya smiling and welcoming guests.
The Son of Heaven palace we are now seeing is the second row of the constructs. The original constructs of the Son of Heaven palace was burned down in 1928. This was repaired in 1982 .Outside the palace gate are two big Jin'gang, named "humph", "Kazak" , whose responsibilities includes protecting the Buddhist doctrine. Inside The main hall are the statues of the four great heavenly gods, also called "The Four big Jin'gang". Their responsibilities involves inspecting all livings' good and evil behavior, helping the distressed and the poor, bringing happiness to the world. The combination of the four great heavenly gods implies the good crop weather.
The Great Buddha Hall is the center building of the constructs. It is the main place for monks to perform Buddhism ceremonies. Enshrined in the centre is Siddhartha, on the left is The Medicine Buddha, and on the right is Amitabha （阿弥陀佛）. Besides, below the poles of the hall are the statues of Kylins, which indicate the Zen Buddhism is one of the Chinese Style.
We have visited Shao Lin temple today. Have you understood the true meaning of Zen and appreciated the excellence of Kung Fu? As we all know, kung fu can keep fit. I hope that you can take Chinese Kung Fu back to your hometown and I hope your friends and family to have a strong body.。
