Looking at the history of Jile Temple, before 2002, it was first destroyed by the Cultural Revolution, and then someone built a "Fox Fairy Hall" in Jile Temple, where "tributes" such as roast chicken, wine and meat are placed. In addition, the popular sacrificial "burning ingots" atmosphere in the Northeast was also brought to Jile Temple by some people who did not understand Buddhism. They openly placed burning paper stoves in the temple to make a profit, making a living, making this ancient temple that was personally created by Master Nengxu for nearly a hundred years and almost became a chaotic place with chaos.

In 2002, Master Jingbo, who served as the teacher at Chinese Buddhist Academy, returned to his hometown Heilongjiang to serve as the abbot of Jile Temple. In order to clarify the boundaries of Buddhist faith and restore the temple to a pure land, Master Jingbo risked revenge on the risk of cutting off other people's financial paths, withstood the pressure and cleared out the temple such as "supporting great immortals" and "burning ingots", which seriously violated the Buddhist precepts !
