ahavira Hall

大雄寶殿前面的石碑

大雄寶殿 Mahavira Hall (Main Hall)是寺院佛事活動的中心場所，與天王殿、藏經閣並稱為三大佛殿。殿內供釋迦牟尼、藥師佛、阿彌陀佛的神像，殿堂正中懸掛康熙皇帝御筆親書的「寶樹芳蓮」 四個大字，屏牆後壁有觀音塑像，兩側塑有十八羅漢像。

The setout of the hall was no different from the other temples elsewhere and Sakyamuni Amitabha, Medicine Buddha and 18 Arhats were worshipped here.大廳的陳列和其他地方寺廟沒有什麼不同，這裡祭拜釋迦牟尼，阿彌陀佛，藥師佛和十八羅漢。

In the hall there is a stone Kirin Statue under the pillar , about one meter (about 3.33 feet) high, was said if touched the Kirin's head will bring you good luck.

大殿中的柱子下有一個石麒麟雕像，約一米多高（約為 3.33英尺）。據說摸 了麒麟的頭會給你帶來好運。

Large iron pot in front of Cangjingge, minted in the Ming Dynasty, which is Shaolin monks cooking pot In the ancient days.藏經閣前面有一口大鐵鍋，明代萬曆年間鑄造，這是古代少林寺和尚炒菜用的鍋子。

藏經閣 (Sutras Hall) Rare books concerning secrets of martial arts are kept here. All books was burned at 1928.珍貴書籍包括武術秘笈都保存在這裡。所藏經書已於 1928 年大火付之一炬！

這個藏經閣的「藏」字，是故意這樣寫的，因為現在的經典收藏不完全，所以後人在題字時，刻意少了旁邊的筆畫來表示。

Shaolin Abbot Court 方丈室Abbot court is where the abbots live. Emperor Qianlong once stayed here when traveling to Mt. Songshan. 寺中方丈起居與理事的地方。清朝乾隆皇帝遊少林寺時的行宮，故又稱「龍庭」。

少林寺內多古樹，姿態各異，多有兩樹共生，互相纏繞。也有經大火後不死重生的樹，一邊已焦黑，另一邊仍生命力旺盛地生長。

The famous Snow Pavilion was here and it was the very site where the well-known story of “shedding blood on the snow” happened. It was said that once Dharma was cultivating himself on Buddhism at this place. Dharma's disciple Huike wanted to be instructed by him and he stood outside of the pavilion for several days. It happened to snow one day when Dharma told him, “I will teach you only if the red snow appeared.” Huike then cut one of his arms. His blood dropped on the snow. It was completely red. Dharma was touched by his determination and sincerity and made him the inheritor of his teaching.著名的「立雪亭」就在這裡，「斷臂立雪」的典故即出於此地。傳說達摩曾 在此亭中修行，弟子惠可為求其真傳，立亭外數日不去。時逢 天降大雪，達摩謂其曰：「欲得真傳，除非天雨紅血」。惠可即引刀自斷一臂，血瀝雪上，一片鮮紅。達摩感其誠，即授其衣缽。

千佛殿 Thousand Buddha Hall 又名毘盧殿，是寺內最後一進大殿。殿內的壁畫非常有名，是少林寺壁畫中的珍品。大殿背面及東、西兩牆壁上都繪有彩色壁畫，最著名的有「十三棍僧救唐王」、「五百羅漢毘盧圖」，色彩艷麗、構圖和諧，衣袂飄飄，展示了唐代壁畫的極高水準。殿內正中還供有毘盧佛銅像 和白玉釋迦牟尼像。

Pilu Hall, also called the Thousand Buddha Hall, was built during the Ming Dynasty. that is main highlight and the largest Buddhist hall in Shaolin Temple. It consecrates the Pilu Buddha in the center of the palace.

Look at the floor of Thousand Buddha Hall (Training Hall).

We can know how wonderful they were from these foot pits．細看千佛殿 ( 訓練館 ) 的地上，磚鋪地面上有 4排 48 個「站樁坑」，它們是少林寺僧人練拳習武所留下的腳坑，這些腳坑見證了少林功夫非同一般。

“All kinds of People Tablet”, its top quarter is a pictorial depiction of Buddhism, Daoism and Confucianism. The tablet reflects Mt. Songshan’s importance as a common meeting place for Buddhism, Daoism, and Confucianism and underscores the confluence between the three major religions.

《混元三 教九流圖贊碑》，上方圖案描述佛、道、儒三教混元圖像 ，此碑反映了嵩山是佛、道、儒三教薈萃之地，體現了三教合流的重要思想。

“Qianlong Imperial Tablet”, which was engraved during the 15th year (1750 A.D.) of the Qing Dynasty.

《乾隆御碑》清乾隆 15 年（西元1750 年）刻立的。
