As far as the mainstreamBuddhist research is concerned,scholars tend to restore the human morality memory by the historical anthropological methods. As the important heritage of the Buddhist grotto im-ages,the northeastern region of China completely replicates the crowd pattern of the grotto morality system. China plays an important role in the propagation of grotto civilization,and as the image museumand image relic,grotto historiography shall be transformed into image recognition and construct newimage cultural systemso as to further explore the basic model of the morality construction of human beings.展开更多
