廣教寺

江蘇南通

原名慈航院。位於江蘇省南通市狼山。始建於唐總章二年(669),天寶年間(742~756)重修,改稱廣教寺。歷代屢有興廢。狼山為大勢至菩薩道場,有中國佛教「八小名山」之譽。一九八三年列為中國「漢族地區佛教全國重點寺院」。
 該寺主要分為山上、山下兩部分,山下稱紫琅禪院,山頂稱支雲塔院。紫琅禪院建築主要有法乳堂、輪藏殿、大悲殿、金剛殿、藏經樓及幻公塔等。法乳堂是紫琅禪院的主要建築,原為該寺的大雄寶殿,明成化年間(1465~1487)焚毀,重建後稱釋迦殿、大佛殿,一九八三年改建後易為今名;門上懸「法乳堂」匾額,為趙樸初所題。法乳二字源於《大般涅槃經後分》卷上:「飲我法乳長法身。」殿內供奉明代(1368~1644)塑釋迦牟尼佛像,牆壁上鑲嵌燒瓷十八羅漢圖,為一九八二年范曾所繪。
 支雲塔院是廣教寺主建築群,有山門、萃景樓、圓通寶殿、大聖殿及支雲塔等。山門上懸額「第一山」為米芾所書。支雲塔為南通三塔之一,建於北宋太平興國年間(976~984),為方形五層磚木結構樓閣式塔,高34.9公尺。寺現存有《明藏》、《龍藏》、弘一法師手抄《僧伽六度經》及清(1644~1911)末狀元張謇手抄《般若波羅蜜多心經》等文物。
