作品介绍

哈拉和林石，又称“石祖”（英语：Phallic Rock），位于蒙古国前杭爱省哈拉和林，靠近额尔德尼召，是草原上的一块巨大的阴茎状的石头。这块石头有多种功能：主要是提醒僧人保持独身生活，另外也是繁殖力和人生的象征。其长度大约为60厘米。

传说

传说，额尔德尼召一位僧人曾发誓要独身，但他原来是个好色之徒。作为惩罚，他被阉割，以提醒他想起自己的独身誓言。作为对额尔德尼召其他僧众的警告，一块岩石被雕刻成阴茎形状，称为“哈拉和林石”，放在距离额尔德尼召不远处，提醒僧众不应沉迷于与当地妇女的任何性行为。

位置

《Lonely Planet》称这块大石头“色情地指向一个有趣的所谓‘阴道坡（vaginal slope）’” ，后者隐藏在一个小山谷中，位于额尔德尼召东南方向大约2公里处。流经这片玄武岩区域的河流源自Gyatruu山脉，流向哈拉和林苏木。可以从大路经过一条好走的小路到达哈拉和林石。哈拉和林石可以从起自乌兰巴托的大路上望见，该石头距离哈拉和林山1公里。许多游客希望参观该石头，许多妇女也来此祈祷能生育子女。

此外，还有四块龟状的石头（龟被视为保护和永恒的象征）标记着额尔德尼召四个方向的界线。这四块石头的背上刻有它们的历史。

Kharkhorin Rock, also Kharkarin Rock or Phallic Rock, is a large statue of a penis raised on a platform on the steppe, located near Erdene Zuu Monastery (part of the World Heritage Site entitled Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape) in Kharkhorin, Övörkhangai Province of Mongolia. The phallic rock statue has dual functions; primarily it is a reminder to the monks to remain celibate, but it is also a symbol of fertility and human life.

Legend

Legend states that a monk who had vowed to be celibate had turned out to be a womanizer. As punishment he was castrated to remind him of his vows of celibacy. As a warning to the other inmate monks of the monastery, a rock in the shape of a penis was prominently engraved as a stone phallus called "Kharkhorin Rock" within walking distance from the monastery, to remind them that they should not be indulging in any sexual activity with the local women.

Access

Lonely Planet says that the statue "points erotically to something interestingly called a 'vaginal slope'" which is hidden in a small valley, about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) to the southeast of Erdene Zuu Monastery. The river flowing in this basaltic rocky area originates from the Gyatruu range to Kharkhorin soum. It is accessed from the main road by a well-used path. One can see a larger newer statue from the road from Ulaanbaatar road and 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from Karakhorin hill. Many visitors seek the opportunity to visit the original statue, and many women also approach the site to seek blessings for a child to be born to them. The smaller, 24 inches (610 mm) stone phallus is located within the grounds of the monastery itself, just to the northeast of the main monastery building.

There are also four rocks in the shape of turtles (considered to be symbols of protection and eternity) marking the four cardinal directions of the ancient boundary limits of Karakorum. The stones are inscribed with their past history on the back.
