349 Religious Administration
"Miss, someone in the family is looking for it, saying that it is from the Religious Affairs Bureau. β
As soon as Murong Xianxian walked out of the rehabilitation center and was about to get into the car, her mobile phone rang, but it was Bai Suzhen calling.
"People from the Religious Affairs Bureau, what are they looking for me?" Murong Xianxian was a little puzzled with her mobile phone, she had heard of this institution, but she was not a disciple of Buddhism, what were you looking for her?
"You tell them to wait at home, and I'll go back now. Murong Xianxian said.
"Miss, what does the Religious Affairs Bureau do?" Tu Xuan asked, carefully reversing the car out of the parking space and heading towards the main road.
"It's supposed to be the management of those who have religious beliefs, that's probably it, I don't know very well, I'll know when I go back. Murong Xianxian said uncertainly.
Back at Wenxiangfang, Bai Suzhen came out to open the door and said behind her: "Those people have already come, waiting in the living room." β
Murong Xianxian nodded slightly and walked into the living room: "Hello, I'm Murong Xianxian, may I ask you what is the matter with me?"
In the living room, in addition to three young and middle-aged men and women, there was also a little lama...... It still seems familiar.
"Miss Murong, hello. I am a brief biography of the Religious Affairs Administration, this is my ID, and I would like to consult you about something. β
Seeing Murong Xianxian come in, the four people in the living room all stood up, the little lama clasped his hands together and saluted, while the middle-aged man led by him stretched out his hand and shook Murong Xianxian gently, introduced himself, and handed over his work card.
Murong Xianxian took the work card but didn't open it immediately, but looked at the little lama, and suddenly remembered: "You are Gesang!"
The little lama smiled and nodded.
"You may be seated. β
Murong Xianxian sat on the sofa. looked at the documents, and then returned them to the middle-aged man, "Deputy Director Jian, may I ask what is the matter with your coming over this time?"
Jian Chuan nodded. said straight to the point: "Miss Murong, you're welcome, it's like this." I don't know if you are a demon bell that you once received as a gift from the Jizhu Living Buddha of the Jokhang Temple in Tibet?"
Well?
Murong Xianxian glanced at Gesang, and when he saw that he lowered his head and looked away, he said indifferently: "It is said to be a gift, but in fact, it is also returned." I wonder what this has to do with your business?"
When the Jizhu Living Buddha handed over the Fu Demon Bell to her, there was a recourse from the lama of the Jokhang Temple, and now he wants to go around this bend and seek it from the government through the GuΓ² government?
Hmph!
Although she lives in the secular world. She should also obey the laws of the secular world, but that doesn't mean she should be subjected to those unreasonable coercion, but why did the lamas of Jokhang Temple do this?
She was thinking about things here, but Jian Chuan over there felt that she was being ignored and was very dissatisfied...... Although there is no affiliation between the two. But he is also a government official anyway, and the other party's attitude really dislikes him, so he coughed dryly: "Miss Murong, last month, we received a report from the Jokhang Temple, saying that we have been preparing to carry out the work of searching for the reincarnated spirit child of the Jizhu Living Buddha of the Jokhang Temple, but there is still a lack of some tokens or magic weapons worn by the Living Buddha before his death. The report mentions the Demon Bell, saying that it is a magic weapon that has been blessed for decades. It is very helpful in finding a reincarnated spirit child. β
Reincarnation of the spirit child is a unique way of transmission in Tibetan Buddhism, which originated in the 13th century A.D. in the Karma Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism, and after the head of the black hat system passed away, the disciples elected a young child as the reincarnated heir, thus creating the method of reincarnation of the living Buddha, and various sects have followed suit since then. At the turn of the 14th and 15th centuries AD, the Gelug sect of Tibetan Buddhism was founded, and gradually formed two major living Buddha systems of ** Lama and Panchen Erdeni.
After the formation of the reincarnation system of the living Buddha. After a series of historical evolutions, a system was finally formed to identify the reincarnated spirit child of the living Buddha by "casting lots in a golden vase". In history, the identification of the reincarnation of the Great Living Buddha has many drawbacks, the reincarnation of the Living Buddha is often designated by the "Blowing Loyalty" (that is, the Dharma Protector Lama) to practice the sΓ©ance and prayer, so the wind of bribery and blowing loyalty, pretending to be a prophecy, and arbitrarily pointing fingers prevails, and the reincarnated spirit child is mostly from the family of princes and nobles or from the clan marriage, and some upper-class nobles or great lamas take the opportunity to manipulate the religious power.
What's more, the 10th living Buddha of the Kagyu sect of the Red Hat faction used the excuse to divide the property of Tashilhunpo Monastery, and after the failure, he actually seduced the Gurkha to invade Tibet, endangering the safety of the country and the people. In the face of these shortcomings in the final identification of the reincarnation of the Great Living Buddha, Qing Gaozong accepted the request of the local monks and lay circles in Tibet to "establish a legal system" and "hang it for a long time", and after sending officers and soldiers to repel the Gurkha invasion, he ordered the officials in Tibet to prepare regulations for dealing with the aftermath.
In 1793, Emperor Qianlong officially promulgated the "Twenty-nine Articles of the Regulations for the Aftermath of the King James in Tibet", and established the golden vase lottery system. Article 1 of the charter clearly stipulates: "The Great Emperor in order to seek the prosperity of the Yellow Sect, specially given a golden bottle, in the future, when he encounters the search for the spirit child, he invites the four protectors, the name and date of birth of the spirit child, in Manchu, Chinese, Tibetan three languages written on the sign, put into the bottle, select the truly learned living Buddha, pray for seven days, and then by the Hutu Ketu and the minister in Tibet in front of the Jokhang Temple Shakya statue formally, when identifying **, Panchen spirit child, also must be written in Manchu, Chinese, Tibetan three languages on the sign, the same." At this point, the system of "casting lots in a golden vase" was established in the form of national law.
After the Jizhu Living Buddha was completed, some people proposed that there were not many items left behind by the Living Buddha, and that the Living Buddha had given a magic bell to a young female Han Chinese, so someone asked to take the magic bell back, so that today's Jian Chuan came to the door, and Gesang came to confirm whether it was Murong Xianxian.
"Deputy Director Jian, it's impossible to return that Demon Bell. Murong Xianxian refused.
Jian Chuan's face changed: "Miss Murong, the Jizhu Living Buddha has a great influence in the Jokhang Temple and even in Tibet, which involves ethnic relations, and we must be cautious, so as not to affect the stability and unity between the two ethnic groups." β
"Deputy Director Jian, this hat you buckled is too big, my head is too small to wear. β
Murong Xianxian said indifferently: "According to Chinese law, that Demon Bell is already my belonging, and no one can take it away from me!"
"Miss Murong, you misunderstood, you didn't want to take it by force, you just borrowed it. Jian Chuan frowned, his dissatisfaction with someone had reached the extreme.
"Borrowed, I'm afraid Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, right?" Murong Xianxian sneered. It's not that she's stingy, once that magic weapon falls into the hands of the Jokhang Temple Lama, I'm afraid there will be nothing to do with her.
"Miss Murong, how can you talk like that! You have to trust the government!" Jian Chuan was displeased, if it was an executive order that was valid, he would have stopped talking nonsense to the girl in front of him a long time ago.
"Lord Murong Shi,"
Gesang, who was next to him, saw that the conversation between the two sides seemed to have reached an impasse, and hurriedly interjected: "Please don't misunderstand. If you are worried about the loss of this magic weapon, you can also take it into Tibet in person, and in order to successfully find the reincarnated spirit child of the living Buddha, I hope that the donor will give you permission!"
After speaking, he stood up and gave Murong Xian a deep salute, with a very sincere look on his face.
Going in person?
Murong Xian sighed slightly, she was almost sure that there was something wrong with this, but what would it be?
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and she glanced at Gesang and asked, "When?"
"In another half a month, a ceremony will be held in the Jokhang Temple to find the reincarnated spirit child, and I hope that Murong Xianxian will take the time to go. Gesang said, handing over an invitation, and Jian Chuan next to him showed a little envy in his eyes - don't look at him as a deputy director, but in the bureau, he is just a marginal figure who plays soy sauce, and even he is not qualified to have this invitation.
Half a month later?
Murong Xianxian silently calculated his time arrangement...... In two days, she was ready to set off for Yunnan to participate in the small trade fair organized by those cultivation families, and then to Kunlun, which should be able to be arranged in time.
"Okay, I'll make as much time as I can when the time comes. She nodded.
"Okay, Lord Murong Shi, thank you, thank you so much!" Gesang happily saluted Murong Xianxian after receiving an affirmative reply from Murong Xianxian.
His attitude surprised Jian Chuan and the other two staff members next to him, they knew that although this lama was not very old, his status in the Jokhang Temple was not low, and when dealing with them as members of the Religious Administration, he often put on a cow appearance, but she would be so polite to a young girl, why is this?
Could it be that the spring of this little lama is also coming soon?
Jane passed on a few of them and began to make up for their brains.
After sending a few people away, Murong Xianxian sat on the sofa and began to groan.
"Miss, what's going on?" Bai Suzhen asked.
"It's just that some people want to use their brains. Murong Xianxian smiled faintly and told the story of the matter.
"Miss, what are you going to do?" Bai Suzhen asked.
"What will be counted. β
A layer of murderous aura appeared on Murong Xianxian's face: "Birds die for food, people die for money, and those who always think of crooked ideas are done, naturally no one dares to be presumptuous anymore." β
"Do you need anything to prepare?" asked Bai Suzhen.
"I'll take Tuxuan over, and you can help me take care of it at home. β
After Murong Xianxian finished speaking, he walked out of the room and walked towards the backyard.
In comparison, the backyard is much more lively than the front yard, Zhao Yacheng and Mu Fei are practicing martial arts with Murong Xiaoxiao, although they have just started practicing, they already have a bit of momentum between the shots, the fist is tigery, and the scrape on the skin is also a little stinging, and the bearing is also much calmer.
Xiaoqing, Huanhuan and Xingxing, who were lying next to them watching the little martial arts practice, saw Murong Xianxian come in, and immediately got up to greet them, but they seemed to sense that Murong Xianxian had something on their minds, and they all followed her quietly.
"Sister. When Murong Xiaoxiao saw her come in, he stopped his fists and feet, ran to her and smiled innocently.
"Xiaoxiao, my sister is going out in a few days, you have to practice martial arts at home, don't go out casually, okay?" Murong Xianxian asked.
"Hmm. Murong nodded slightly.
