During the Jiajing (嘉靖) period of the Ming Dynasty, the temple was abandoned and eventually re-built as the Yingxiang ((迎祥) Temple. During the reign of the late Ming Dynasty Emperor ‘Chongzhen’ (崇祯) - between the end of the eleventh and the beginning of the twelfth-lunar month (from the end of December 1638 to the beginning of the first solar-month of 1639), is the time when ‘Xu Xaike’ (徐霞客) and his extended family went on a tour of the Jizu Mountains. In his book entitled ‘徐霞客游记’ (Xu Xia Ke You Ji) - or ‘Xu Xiake’s Travel Journal’ - he records that he only toured the Jizu Mountains to specifically visit the ‘Yingxiamg’ (迎祥) or ‘Welcome Auspicious’ Temple! During the Ming Dynasty the Yingxiang Temple was famous and a favourite place for the ordinary people to congregate and the great Buddhist monastics to abide within! During the reign of the Qing Dynasty Emperor ‘Guangxu’ (光绪) the ‘Yongxiang’ Temple was already in a dilapidated state! Master Xu Yun (虚云) took-on the task of repairing and extending this Buddhist monastic construction – a task which was completed during 1909 – when the complex was granted the name ‘Zhusheng’ (祝圣) Temple!

关于祝圣寺
来自:读者投稿 发表于 2018-5-8
祝圣寺原名迎祥寺,又名钵盂庵, 是鸡足山一座庞大的建筑群,系虚云和尚亲自在国内外募化功德创建,清光绪赐名“护国祝圣寺”,为十方丛林大刹,总面积1.335万平方米,1984年,国务院确定祝圣寺为汉族地区佛教全国重点寺院、佛教开放活动场所。明朝嘉靖年间废庵建成迎祥寺。明末崇祯十一年底至十二年的正月(公元1638年12月底至 1639年正月),大旅行家徐霞客云游鸡足山后,在《徐霞客游记》的有关鸡足山部分中,只简单地点到迎祥寺。可见在明代时,迎祥寺在鸡足山众多寺庙中的地 位还远未体现出来。迎祥寺到清朝光绪年间时,已破败不堪,到宣统六年(公元1909年)后才得以重修,并改名为祝圣寺。
