Bayeijing The Bayeijing was mainly written between the 8th and 14th centuries A.D. Due to the dry climate of Tibet, as well as the unique conservation methods and strong conservation awareness, the Bayeijing found in Tibet are very well preserved. However, the sutras are mainly written in Sanskrit, and only a few people in the world are proficient in Sanskrit. The study of the sutras cannot be done with the help of modern tools, and the translation is done manually, which is an exceptionally difficult project. Inheritance and Protection Widespread Inheritance: The Bayeijing encompasses the entire content of the traditional culture of the Dai-Tai ethnic group. It is not a prehistoric "living fossil", nor is it an archaeological "cultural relic". Secularity, universality and universality are its most basic features. It is practiced and inherited by all levels of the family, society and temples within the whole nation, and is almost a historical form of "national education". It covers more than Xishuangbanna, Dehong and all the Dai and Zhuang ethnic areas in Yunnan, and extends to the whole of Southeast Asia and the South Asian subcontinent, where almost hundreds of millions of people are still inheriting and using this kind of change. The Bedouro tree, shaped like a palm tree, is called "Golan" in the Dai language of Xishuangbanna. In the minds of the Dai people, the "Golan leaf" (i.e., the shell leaf) is a piece of God that carries the history and culture of the Dai people to the light. Since ancient times, all the historical events and cultures of the Dai society have been passed down from generation to generation by using a piece of bay leaf as a record, and the Dai people regard the Bay Leaf Scriptures as the precious wealth of the whole nation to be protected. Historically, each Buddhist temple has a hidden scripture pavilion, the Dai language called "Lin Tan", all of the Bay Leaf scriptures are to be unified custody here, by the Buddha, the monk strictly guarded. Without the permission of the master of the temple, no one may enter here to take away the scriptures. The management of the Bayeux scriptures is also very strict, in addition to the sheep paper transcription of the singsong, production and life, medicine, calendar, ethics, divination, legal texts can be retained in the village for the use of the village people, where the Buddhist classics and other content of the Bayeux scriptures are not allowed to individuals out of the Buddhist temple hidden in private homes. Therefore, it is rare to see the phenomenon of the loss of the sutras in the Buddhist temples. Two Forms Form: Leafy Form One type is the real Shell Leaf Sutra, which is called "Tanlan" in Dai language. It is made of folk iron hairpins inscribed on the specially made shell leaf sheet, its specifications have four lines per page, five lines, six lines and eight lines and so on four kinds of Dai language were called "Lan play", "Lan Ha", "Lan He", "Lan", "Lan He", "Lan", "Lan He", "Lan He" and "Lan He". ", "Lanbe". The previous three specifications of the Bayeux sutra is the most common. Paper form a class refers to the paper scripture, the Dai language called "thin Ga La Sha". It is with the wild fern poles sharpened fern pen dipped in ink written on cotton paper and become. Its specifications have a wide page type and even folded two kinds, of which the wide page type is the most common. Of the above two types of scriptures, the Bayeux Sutra is the most voluminous, followed by the paper-form scriptures. The above two types of scriptures, due to the large number, content, meaning profound, and therefore known as the "Bei Muo play version of the Kang" (84,000), and in the Dai history of the ancient times. How to make Take leaves Cut down the leaves from the Bay leaf tree, use a sharp knife to trim the leaves one by one, three to five pieces rolled up into a bundle, and put them into a pot to cook. The skin on the surface of the leaves is peeled off by adding capers or lemon. Usually half a day, until the shellfish leaves become light green and white, only from the pot out, to the river with fine sand scrub clean, and then the shellfish leaves flattened and dried in the sun, put away to let it through a period of time after the wind, and then booked into the box. Making the box The standard for making the shell leaf sutra box is a special two-piece wooden box. Wooden box is about a city foot and a half long, about four inches wide, about half a city foot from the ends of the wooden box drilled a small hole, a piece of sun-dried flattened by the wind through the treatment of shellfish tightly clamped in the middle of the two pieces of wooden box, the two ends of the rope tied tightly, and then use the special nails along the two sides of the wooden box holes will be drilled through the shellfish, and then threaded on the rubbing of the good threads, according to the 500 to 600 pieces of shellfish booked as a box. Ordered with a knife after gently repair the shell box smooth, and with a special ink line bow, in accordance with the format of writing, the ink line gently playing in the shell leaves, to be engraved later. Bay leaf sutra engraving initially with a small sharp knife along the ink line to play the Daiwen engraved in the Bay leaf. Later on, the knife was found to be slow and laborious, so the iron hairpin was used to carve the scriptures. After carving, the black smoke from the bottom of the pot was mixed with vegetable fruit oil and applied to the engraved words on the shell leaves, and then wiped with a wet cloth, and the words on the shell leaves appeared clearly. Carved and written scriptures bound into an album, coated with a layer of gold around the edges of the fine, uniform specifications, due to the scriptures on all sides are coated with a layer of colored lacquer, wiped with gold dust, thus giving people a superb, simple, generous, beautiful feeling. Because it is written on the shell leaves with an iron hairpin and coated with pigment, not only is the handwriting clear, but also it cannot be erased and wiped away. Because the shell leaves have been boiled in water and other special treatments, they are insect-proof, waterproof, deformation-proof, and durable. This is also the reason why Bay Leaf Scriptures can be preserved for hundreds or thousands of years. Bay leaf culture Legend source Chinese Dai ethnic areas of Buddhist temples have long been a tradition of Bay leaf literature, the source of one is written by the Buddha himself, the second is to accept the secular beings "fine Tan" offering scriptures or "fine book" offering books.

In addition to the centralized storage of Bayeux scriptures in Buddhist temples, the Dai secular folk also have various types of Bayeux literature, so the Bayeux culture has become the representative and symbol of the Dai culture from the Buddhist temples to the folk. The shell leaf culture is a symbolic reference to the traditional culture of the Dai people. It is called "shell leaf culture" because it is preserved in the shell leaf scriptures made of shell leaves. The shell-leaf culture includes three aspects: shell-leaf sutras, sutras written on cotton paper and traditional Dai cultural events surviving in the folklore. Characteristic Carrier The Bay Leaf Scripture is the oldest and most central part of the Bay Leaf Culture, which is the main carrier of the Bay Leaf Culture and can be said to be the root of the Dai culture. For more than a thousand years, the Dai people of the previous generations of writers do not seek fame or profit, tireless use of the iron pen to inscribe the text on the Bay Leaf, silent dedication to the wisdom and talent, one generation after another, among them, no one in their own inscribed scriptures to leave their names, but left behind for future generations of infinite wisdom and spiritual wealth, gathered into a vast Bay Leaf canon, creating a profound and profound "Bay Leaf Culture". "Bayeux culture". Thus, the rich Bay Leaf Scriptures became the encyclopedia of the Dai society and formed the local ethnic culture with great characteristics.
