Chapter 14: The Theory of Cause and Effect
Zhang Kuan was wearing wet clothes, crooked eyebrows, squinted his eyes, rolled his eyes at Wu Zheng, and said loudly: "Bald, isn't the Buddha family not close to women, why are you picking up girls here?"
Wu Zheng hurriedly recited the Buddha's name." Don't want to recreate the mouth karma, you will go to hell with tongue pulling."
"Fart, I said that I want to go to hell with my tongue, but it's you, when the monk doesn't recite the scriptures well, and I run to coax the girl, I think it's you who will go to hell." Zhang Kuan wrung the water on his clothes angrily, and he was not polite at all.
Song Jia was extremely uncomfortable in his ears. The master didn't mess with you, why are you talking so impulsively?"
Zhang Kuan replied." I don't know, I'm mad at seeing these bald heads." He didn't say nonsense about this, since he approached this Qinglong Temple, Zhang Kuan's heart was very impetuous, and he didn't like anything.
That Fang Wuzheng recited the Buddha name again." The donor is impetuous, and he just enters my Buddha Gate and can cultivate his self-cultivation."
"Yo-heh." Zhang Kuan smiled. You're weird, tell me to be a monk, I'm going to marry a daughter-in-law and have a baby."
Enlightenment is the way." I also have lay disciples in Buddhism, and I can marry a wife and have children."
When Zhang Kuan heard this, he pulled Song Jia along. Go, ignore him, the big bald head will fool people, and he says that the Buddha family is not close to women, and he says that there can be lay disciples.
Song Jia was pulled by Zhang Kuan, and she desperately shrank back. I'm not going anywhere, I'm just here to talk to the master, and I think the story told by the master is very good."
Zhang Kuan just laughed." I'll tell you stories, and I'll tell you better stories than the big bald heads. Let's go to the car, and I'll tell you the story of a little brother and a little sister fighting."
Song Jia was furious when she heard this, her face was red, but she was helpless, she turned her head and walked into the mountain gate angrily, looking for her mother.
At the door, there were two people, Zhang Kuan and Wu Zheng, and Wu Zheng smiled at Zhang Kuan. Are you still impetuous?"
"Impetuous, your sister." Zhang Kuan said, turning his head and going down the mountain.
Wu Zheng looked at his back, said a Buddha name, and entered the mountain gate.
Mrs. Song listened to the abbot talk about a Buddhist scripture again, and her heart was much calmer, and she got up to say goodbye when it was not too early.
Wu Zhengxian said: "The disciple has just seen his person, he is stubborn, his words are rude, his heart has no reverence, he is extremely arrogant, he doubts in his heart, he is really destined for my Buddha."
The abbot said, "Of all the disciples, you are the only one who is the smartest.
Wu Zheng folded his hands and thanked him, and asked again. How should this person be measured?"
The abbot closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then said, "The Buddha had foreseen many years ago that the time of the end of the Dharma was coming, and you should enter the world to practice."
Wuzheng hurriedly nodded.: "The disciple understands, let's clean up, and go down the mountain."
The abbot heard this, and nodded with joy. Go, so merit, you should take it."
As soon as he left the Qinglong Temple, his mood was much calmer, anyway, he had nothing to do, so he turned on the radio to listen.
Zhang Kuan didn't realize it for a while, he was still calm, and he was intoxicated.
At the end of the song, the voice of the female announcer came: Buddhist songs have been there since the Sui and Tang dynasties, and there are records in the Tang music scores.
As the music sounded, there was another burst of Sanskrit, Zhang Kuan was drunk again, closed his eyes and listened quietly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and nodded again and again.
When Mrs. Song's mother and daughter came down, they saw him lying in the driver's seat listening to Buddhist music, and they stayed for a while. The monks are quiet and do nothing, they have no quarrel with the world, what are you going to bully them for?"
This thing just rolled its eyelids." Whoever bullied them, I just wanted to catch a fish to eat, these little guys were so angry that they wouldn't give it, even if I was wrong, they were a dozen bald heads to beat me together, who was bullying whom?"
Mrs. Song has a weak temperament, is not good at verbal disputes, can only close her eyes and meditate, and silently recite Buddhist scriptures.
Song Jia was not convinced, and said later: "Although it is said that there is freedom of belief, if you openly slander the cultivators, are you not afraid of retribution?"
Zhang Kuan smiled. Don't listen to the nonsense of the bald heads, if there is really retribution in the world, they are the ones who deserve retribution the most, they don't do anything all day, they chant the scriptures and ring the bell, they will have something to eat, and this kind of lazy person will be retribution, and they will be reincarnated as pigs in the next life."
"You." Mrs. Song couldn't help but be angry when she heard this. Who said that the family members were lazy, and that the food and clothing in the temple were all earned by their own farming.
Zhang Kuan leaned back with a grin. That's because their monasteries aren't famous.Look at those famous mountains and big temples.Just the ticket is enough for them to eat and drink spicy.It's not that I slander them.You just go to the road and grab someone and ask.See what they think of monks.I heard that the threshold for being a monk is very high now.I don't have any ability.And the treatment is very good.The entry and exit are all BMW Mercedes-Benz.Eating is big fish and meat.I can also marry a wife and have children.Not to mention more moisturizing.I'm itching.I want to be a monk."
Mrs. Song had long known that Zhang Kuan was a bad person, but she didn't hear it, she closed her eyes and said: "I haven't seen anything myself, don't take hearsay seriously, the kind of monks like you said are a minority, and they are also a minority, but they are exaggerated by the people.
Zhang Kuan wanted to say more, and Song Jia patted him on the shoulder." Look, Master Wuzheng is here."
Zhang Kuan looked sideways, and the young monk he had just seen was wearing a yellow monk's robe and carrying a yellow baggage.
Zhang Kuan smiled. It's time to go down the mountain to ask for food."
"Don't talk nonsense, master fate, if you can help a trip, you can help a ride."
Satoru walked up to Zhang Kuan's Audi and smiled slightly, putting his hands together. Brother, can you give me a ride?"
Even if Zhang Kuan asked the monk for help, he still agreed, and then opened the car door, let Wu Zheng get into the car, and asked, "Master, where are you going?"
Gosho just laughed." Go to the world."
Zhang Kuan slapped the steering wheel." Speak human words."
Wu Zheng blushed when he heard this, and announced the Buddha's name." I'll go wherever you go."
Zhang Kuan was strange, looked at him sideways, and then looked at the two ladies in the back seat, and they didn't speak, so they set off in gear and drove towards Weiyang.
Zhang Kuan galloped all the way, and Song Jia felt bored, so he leaned his head forward and asked Wuzheng. Master, like the story you told today, is there anything else, I want to hear it again."
Wu Zheng thought about it and said. Then let's talk about Senior Brother Hongyun.Senior Brother Hongyun was originally a butcher under the mountain.Half a life has created countless killing karma.That day, the old abbot went down the mountain.Seeing that he was about to slaughter a black dog.So he persuaded him to put down the butcher's knife.Of course Senior Brother Hongyun didn't want to.The old abbot paid him money.Spare the black dog for the time being.Since then.The black dog followed Hongyun.Left and right.After a month.Hongyun went to the ditch to catch fish.Suddenly the black dog barked wildly.Pulled him on the leg of his trousers.So that he couldn't come forward.When Hongyun was strange.A poisonous insect with black skin and green patterns came out of the grass in front of him.Hidden in the water.”
"Wow, that's amazing." Song Jia sighed like this.The little daughter is extremely cute.Zhang Kuan, who listened to it, was unhappy for a while, but he didn't make a sound.
"What happened later, what happened next." Song Jia asked.
Wu Zheng said: "Later, Senior Brother Hongyun was moved by the Black Dog Savior, so he treated the Black Dog as if he were his own child, and because the old abbot persuaded him to slaughter the dog, he often came to the temple to talk to the abbot, and the abbot told him about the cause and effect in Buddhism. Hongyun was moved, and since then he put down the butcher's knife and changed to a vegetable farmer.
"So good." Song Jia sighed. The theory of cause and effect is amazing, and the Dharma is wonderful."
Satoru smiled." It is the subtlety of the Dharma that lasts forever in the world, and if you are interested, you can study it."
Song Jia nodded again and again and smiled at her mother. Mom, I'll start chanting with you tomorrow." He turned his face around again and asked Gosho. You say the Red Fish is doomed. What's going on?"
Wu Zheng replied: "I have already said that there was a turtle in the reform pond at the beginning, and the red fish was a latecomer, and at first they had no time to get along, and then they had a dispute, so they made a feud with the turtle.
"That's right." Song Jia listened strangely. The Red Fish and the Turtle have a grudge, why is it the man who comes to complete the retribution for the Turtle?"
Wu Zheng said: "The cycle of heaven and effect, cause and effect are unhappy, lions eat tigers, tigers eat leopards, leopards eat wolves, wolves eat dogs, dogs eat cats, cats eat mice, mice can produce elephants, elephants can eat lions, the world is like this, the cause and effect of the fruit is always returned, Party A does not pay back Party B, this life does not return to the next life, if you want to jump out of this cause and effect, you need to meditate and practice."
Song Jia was already fascinated by what he heard, and the monk's few words were full of many philosophies, which impressed the little girl, and she was about to boast and praise, when she heard Zhang Kuan in front of her suddenly say: "It's nonsense, it's a big brag."
One sentence shocked the three of them at the same time, and Mrs. Song said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense."
Wu Zhengzhi folded his hands." Amitabha."
Song Jia said: "Why don't you argue between right and wrong, what the master said makes sense, why did you become nonsense."
Zhang Kuan snorted twice. What he said is the law of nature, and it has a fart relationship with cause and effect, and if there is cause and effect, why don't so many damned people die, and why are those who deserve happiness still suffering?"
Wu Zheng said: "What Senior Brother said is not true, the so-called cause and effect, it is not that there is no retribution, the time has not come, those who deserve to die, they must have done a lot of good things in the previous life, they need to consume the good fortune of the previous life in this life, and it will be the turn of the evil retribution, and those who need to enjoy the blessings but do not enjoy the blessings must have done too much evil in the previous life, and they will not be finished in this life."
