In December 1937, the Japanese forces captured Nanjing, marking the beginning of a horrific massacre. Amid the chaos, the monks of Qixia Temple, led by the courageous Master Jiran, took a stand to protect their fellow citizens.
Master Jiran and his monks transformed their temple into a refuge for both civilians and Chinese soldiers. Through their tireless efforts, they sheltered and resettled over 24,000 refugees. The monks faced unspeakable brutality at the hands of the Japanese soldiers, yet their resolve never wavered.
Despite the constant threat of death, Master Jiran and his followers provided medical aid to the wounded and sick. They ingeniously devised ways to protect anti-Japanese soldiers, ensuring their safe passage across the river. In a daring act of defiance, the monks risked their lives to smuggle out photographic evidence of the atrocities being committed by the Japanese army in Nanjing.
The selfless actions and unwavering bravery of Master Jiran and the monks of Qixia Temple stand as a testament to the power of compassion and courage in the face of unimaginable horror.
