Chapter 443: All Merit Lottery [Ask for Subscription]

Zheng Jiaxing said: "I want to fight against gambling, so I will take ourselves as an example and publicize it in various villages, hoping that everyone will not fall into that pit again." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"I'm glad you think so. Go ahead, I'll support you in whatever you do. Li Na smiled.

"Dad, I support you too!" Zheng Xiaoyu shouted.

"Son, you've finally grown up......," Zheng Huo sighed......

……

At this moment, Fang Zheng had already returned to Yizhi Mountain, eating, chanting scriptures, and when he was fine, he called a few disciples over to talk about the scriptures, and lived a very leisurely life. As for the incense or something, Fangzheng is no longer worried, people come every day, and the incense has not been broken.

The only thing that makes Fang Zheng unhappy is that he has done so many things, why hasn't any of them caused a social sensation?

Crossing the river with a reed was regarded as a liar.

No one mentioned it at all!

crossed a bunch of fake charities, and no one seemed to care.

Now that the gambling tumor has been solved by going down the mountain, the police have arrested people, and the incident is on the news, it seems that it has nothing to do with him!

……

Fang Zheng didn't know that what he did was too unbelievable, some insiders, out of kindness to him, did not say it to the outside world; occasionally said it to the outside world, because no insider came out to testify, it became false propaganda, in addition to these people nearby, there were more people who scolded him from afar. In this way, although he has done a lot, there are really not many people who know who he is.

Fang Zheng lay on the wall every day, staring at the arrival of a large number of pilgrims, and as a result, hey......

"System, when will my temple be upgraded? The incense is so vigorous, it may not be much worse than Hongyan Temple, right?" Fang Zheng asked.

"What does it have to do with me if your temple is upgraded or not?" the system asked.

"It's not...... Don't you care about this?" Fang Zheng was stunned.

"You yourself have said before that there is a difference in the size of the temple? It is just a matter of worshipping the Buddha, every inch is enough, and the size of the heart determines the size of the temple. Why do you care so much about the size of the temple?" the system asked rhetorically.

Fang Zheng was stunned, and then said with a wry smile: "I don't care about the size of the temple, but I really cared about my father back then." His greatest dream is to carry forward the temple and turn it into a great temple second to none......!

"I said help you become a master, and the monastery becomes the biggest monastery. Isn't your monastery small now? People don't increase in value because they live in the mountains, but the mountains increase in value because of people with high virtues. Since ancient times, I have only heard of mountains that are famous because of people, but I have never heard of people who are famous because of mountains. The system said.

Fang Zheng said: "I understand everything, but ......" But after a long time, Fang Zheng suddenly realized that he also misunderstood the meaning of the Zen master......?

Fang Zheng suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he asked the Zen master Yizhi, and there was a local tyrant who wanted to expand the temple by a few halls, but the Zen master Yizhi refused, and Fang Zheng couldn't understand it at the time, so he asked: "Master, why did you refuse? Our dilapidated house has been demolished, isn't it good to replace it? People's temples are so big, and ours is too small." ”

The Zen master shook his head and said, "Having money and no virtue is a curse, a curse to yourself, and a curse to others." The practice of Buddhism, one's own virtue, and the merit to the world are not enough, so I am afraid that I will not be able to suppress it if I build a big temple rashly. Fangzheng, remember, everything is empty, everything you see is empty, and when you leave the day, you can't take anything with you. Only what is in your heart is real, and when your heart is big, the temple is big. When the temple in your heart is big and tolerant of wind and rain, you are qualified to protect a larger temple. The heart is still in place, giving you a mountain and a palace, but it is just a big cage. ”

Fang Zheng listened to this at the time, but he didn't understand, but later he realized something, that is, no matter how big or small the temple is, sincerity is the most important. But now it seems that there is more to this than that...... The temple is not impossible to be big, but it must be matched with virtue.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng nodded silently, understanding the path of his future struggle. Self-cultivation, external merit, and growing together are the royal way.

After thinking through everything and having a clear idea, Fangzheng's heart was also extremely comfortable, and he said with a smile: "System, I have accumulated three task rewards, let's draw a lottery, I am starting to look forward to this reward." ”

"Do you want to smoke now?" the system asked.

"Yes!" Fang Zheng said with great certainty.

"Ding! Congratulations on obtaining the Buddha Gate Building, Morning Bell!"

When Fang Zheng heard this, he was immediately ecstatic, what is the symbol of a temple, a temple? No, the morning bell and the dusk drum are! Whether it is ancient or modern, it is often not seen that the temple but hears the sound of bells and drums. The morning bell and dusk drum have also become a kind of code name for temples and Taoist temples, and when you hear this sound, there are most temples or Taoist temples nearby.

Bells, native of China, began in the government and were later used by Buddhism, but they were not the same in their usefulness to each other.

In Taoism, the bell is called the Tao bell, in addition to the use of telling the time, it is also a ritual instrument and architectural decoration. In many famous Taoist halls, there are big bells hanging on the top! Its existence can make the Taoist temple appear more solemn, solemn, majestic and inviolable, it is not only the most iconic worship instrument, but also is also believed to have the effect of removing demons and warding off evil spirits, is one of the most important magic instruments of Taoism. Therefore, Taoism also calls it the Dharma bell and the Dharma bell. Large-scale Taoist temples, there are bell towers, every day there are morning bells and dusk drum ceremonies, a reminder that practitioners should be diligent and hardworking, brave and diligent, do not be easy to work, relax themselves.

In the "Taoist Book of Aid to the Gods", it is said: "The ancients had chimes and chimes, each with sixteen, in response to the twelve laws and the clear sound of the four palaces. There are also special hanging bells and special hanging chimes, special hanging, and only hanging ones. Today's cave case golden bell jade chime, and there are big bells, etc., all of which are here", and there are scriptures: "The morning bell and the dusk drum are used to summon the hundred spirits, which is called the majesty of the Zhuang Palace View, and the weather of the Hongshan Mausoleum must be every morning and dusk, and there can be no mistakes." The monks have great reverence for the bells and the ringing of the bells. Knock on the bell, deep and clear, knock on the confusion of all beings, "the bell of the upper realm and the lower realm hear", "a bell chime wakes up".

In Buddhism, the bell is given a different meaning.

The bell of the Buddha gate, called the Buddha bell, in many famous temples and ancient temples, there are bell towers and drum towers on the left and right sides in front of the main hall, and the bells and drums are placed respectively, which are called "left bell and right drum".

The bell of the temple is usually struck once in the morning and once at dusk, but unlike other places, only the bell is struck in the morning and the drum is only struck in the evening. The monastery has to be struck, and each time it has to be hit one hundred and eight times in a row. The temple bell is only one of them, and the more important thing is to warn the world. Buddhism believes that "hearing the sound of the bell chime can give birth to good hearts and increase righteous thoughts", "the sound of the bell vibrates and awakens the masses, and the sound spreads through the immeasurable land of the ten directions", Buddhism teaches people to be good, to purify all sentient beings, and practitioners should promote the Dharma, not only to realize themselves, but also to help others and all sentient beings to become enlightened, so that they can be liberated from suffering. Therefore, there is also a "big bell, the jungle commands the beginning of the capital." The dawn strike will break the long night, the alarm sleeps, and the twilight strike will feel faint and ignorant".
