I am Xiang Bakzhu, who was recognized by the government as the third living Buddha of Lazi Temple, Bianba County, Changdu City in 2014. From May 13 to May 24, I went to Xi'an, Yan' an, Putuo Mountain, Hangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing and other places to visit and study. Along the way, I was extremely excited. It not only broadened my horizons, but also increased my knowledge. I gained too much.Our first stop was the ancient city of Xi'an. We first visited the world-famous Terracotta Warriors. Walking closer to the pit, I shuttled through the long alleys of the terracotta warriors and felt extremely shocked. Terracotta warriors stand tall in the exhibition hall, and each terracotta warrior is lifelike. Many Buddha statues were seen in Famen Temple. The Buddha statues here are lifelike, the murals are exquisite, and every place demonstrates the charm of Buddhist art. Here we also witnessed Buddha relics with our own eyes.Visit Zaoyuan. Zaoyuan has a quiet environment, shady trees and beautiful scenery. Here are the former residences of great men Mao Zedong, Wang Jiaxiang, Zhu De, Liu Shaoqi and Zhou Enlai. Among them, the one that impressed me most was Chairman Mao Zedong's former residence. There are many books on Chairman Mao's bedside, which reminds me of a great man's saying: "You can go without eating food for a day, you can go without sleeping for a day, and you can't go without reading books for a day."Arriving at Putuo Mountain, we visited three temples on the mountain. The monks in the temple welcomed us very much. It was the first time I saw the sea in Putuo Mountain, and this was also the first time I saw the sea. Facing the vast sea, I was extremely excited.Arriving in Hangzhou, the first attraction we visited was West Lake. Here I saw the West Lake in the book and the West Lake in the poem. The West Lake is as beautiful as I imagined it to be. It is like a Chinese landscape painting that makes people forget to leave.Visiting the Nanhu Revolutionary Memorial Ha

Sinicization of Tibetan Buddhism: Historical Inevitability and the Choice of the Times The Sinicization of Tibetan Buddhism is not only an inherent requirement for the religion itself to achieve long-term and healthy development, but also an inevitable choice to actively adapt to the new era society and keep pace with the times.In the 7th century AD, Buddhism was introduced to Tibet from ancient India and the Central Plains, and gradually formed a unique Tibetan Buddhist system in the integration with the local Tibetan culture. Historically, Tibetan Buddhism is closely linked to China's cultural, social and political development. Especially in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, Tibetan Buddhism has always occupied an important position in the national governance system and has become an important link in maintaining national unity and promoting cultural integration.From a philosophical point of view, the concepts of "compassion", "cause and effect" and "wisdom" advocated by Tibetan Buddhism are highly consistent with the ideas of "benevolence", "retribution" and "reasoning" in the excellent traditional Chinese culture, laying a deep ideological foundation for its Sinicization.In recent years, temples and Buddhist colleges in Tibet have achieved remarkable results in promoting the Sinicization of Tibetan Buddhism. At the educational level, temples not only impart Buddhist knowledge, but also regularly organize monks to learn national policies and laws and regulations, incorporate the content of China's excellent traditional culture into the curriculum system, and cultivate a group of monks who are proficient in religious doctrines and familiar with modern social systems.In terms of theoretical research, scholars have conducted discussions on the classic doctrines of Tibetan Buddhism and actively explored the parts that are connected with Chinese culture. For example, Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, produced a special film on "oral history" by Tibetan monks such as
