Chapter 592: Ruling Shaolin
Elder North glanced at Su Huai tremblingly, and before he could speak, Director Peng said in a low voice:
"Our municipal government requisitioned land, the unified price is 80,000 per mu, but in order to repair the temple and support the development of our Shaolin Temple, the Land Bureau has increased the land by 130,000 per acre.
Director Peng received Su Huai and the Municipal Tourism Bureau to cooperate with the development of Shaolin Temple, a few nights did not sleep well, before they had already said to the real estate developer, this land they land bureau received, and then auctioned to the developer at a reserve price of 400,000 yuan per mu, unexpectedly, Su Huai inserted a pole. Heavenly
Only then did he quickly raise the price, he didn't believe that Su Huai had the money to collect such a large area of land in Shaolin Temple, he quoted the price because he wanted Su Huai to retreat, so after he finished speaking, he looked at Su Huai's eyes, hoping to see the panic.
To his surprise, Su Huai smiled at Elder Bei:
"I'm not here to buy land, I'm here to help Shaolin promote Buddhism, Shaolin doesn't need to sell any land, but to change, from escaping to joining the world...... Otherwise, even if you sell the land in the back mountain and build the temple, you will not be able to avoid decay. ”
Zen Master Dayong frowned beside him and reprimanded: "Amitabha, Master Su's nephew should not be open-mouthed, Shaolin Temple is a quiet place in ancient times, how can a practitioner enter the world?
You must know that Su Huai is a "Taoist saint" recommended by Taoism, is it not suitable to come to Zen Buddhism to give advice?
Su Huai smiled at Da Yong and said, "Uncle Da Yong, have you joined the Dao Sect?"
"I'm a Zen monk, what Taoist sect I attend. Dayong was stunned and said, this can't be nonsense.
"Cultivating behind closed doors, old and dead, is the Taoist way of cultivation. Su Huai smiled:
"Buddhism is to make a good relationship, if the disciples of Buddhism are the same as Uncle Dayong, just settle in the quiet mountain gate, waiting for pilgrims to come to sell incense, collect tickets, the decline of Buddhism is inevitable.
Why? Because we talk every day that we don't go to all sentient beings, and we can't actually save a few people in a lifetime, or even one person, then we just have a compassionate heart.
The reason why the Divine Sect can spread the Dharma so well is because the priests of the Divine Sect are willing to save sentient beings, they go to war zones to save people, to pacify the people, to build schools, and they are respected in society.
Su Huai's words were righteous and awe-inspiring, and Ling Huizhi also nodded, "What Xiao Su said is" Abbot Nanyun also said:
"Amitabha, good ~ good ~ Mr. Su said very well, Buddhist disciples should take the purification of sentient beings as their own responsibility. ”
Dayong had long known that Su Shengren could speak well, but he didn't expect to be so sharp-tongued, and hurriedly reminded Elder Bei:
"Elder North, our Shaolin Temple monks are all Qing cultivators, have always enjoyed a good reputation, if you rashly enter the WTO to do business with this group of laypeople, do business, no matter what you do, you will be criticized, slandered, this will damage my Buddha's reputation~!
Even if Mr. Su is a Chinese literary saint, isn't he slandered by countless people?
The latter sentence was said to Su Huai.
Su Huai thought to himself, you want to be beautiful, but unfortunately this Shaolin is not only your Shaolin, but the Shaolin of the Chinese people, I am not here today to ask you, but to lead Shaolin, today it seems that I want to establish a prestige, so I laughed:
"You are purifying your body and practicing in retreat for the purpose of cultivating Buddhism, so isn't it true that preaching justice and educating thousands of ordinary people is not practicing Buddhism?
Could it be that Purdue is not the responsibility of a Buddhist disciple for the rest of his life?
Since you are a disciple of Buddhism, then you must stand up, even if the world laughs at you for loving money, saying that you are greedy for fame, and pointing out that you are doing business under the guise of Buddhism, you must also stand up!
Because you Buddhists are heavenly teachers, and you dare not live sentient beings like hell, what kind of bodhisattva is the heart of a bodhisattva, cherishing your name and protecting your body, how can you purify sentient beings?
Jizo Bodhisattva went to hell, made a grand wish, and swore not to become a Buddha if he didn't spend hell, why can't the children of Shaolin join the world?
Then what other Buddhas do you practice, what offerings do you receive, what kind of monks do you be!?
The Bodhisattva King of the Earth is willing to go to hell to live all sentient beings, do we Chinese Buddhist disciples still care about this bit of dirty water?
Zen Master Huizhi heard Su Huai scolding them for begging for food in Shaolin Temple, and his face changed in fright, and he said in a loud voice: "Xiao Su, you are talking nonsense~~Talking in vain~~"
But I heard Elder North chant a Buddha horn, and said in a deep voice:
Although Mr. Su's words are a little extreme, but it is also reasonable, in fact, Nanyun also told me that now the times have changed, to promote the Dharma, to keep up with the times, not to always give lectures in the temple, but also to go out, to go online macro law, to build a local area network, to buy computers...... I persuaded me to open my heart and cooperate with you to develop other industries.
But I'm still worried that if I do this, I will be suspected of turning our Buddhism into a business field......"
Su Huai couldn't help but glance at the abbot of Nanyun when he heard this, thinking that this old abbot was really trendy, and he even knew that he was underestimating the Shaolin Temple, so he turned his face to Elder North and said:
"As long as the monks of Shaolin Temple abide by the precepts, use all the wealth they have to build temples, schools, and pay for the treatment of those lonely and helpless patients, even if outsiders scold Shaolin Temple, Shaolin Temple is also a pure land of Buddhism.
On the contrary, even if you knock on the wooden fish every day to recite scriptures and cultivate your mind, but you only think about yourself in your heart, no matter how others say that you are a high monk, it is just a vain name, Elder Bei, do you think this is the truth?"
As soon as he said this, the doubts that Elder Bei had been holding in his heart suddenly opened, stood up and bowed to Su Huaiyi:
"Mr. Su is really a master, which makes the old man suddenly. ”
Dayong was anxious and wanted to speak, but he saw Elder North wave his hand to stop him, raised his head and asked:
"Then I dare to ask Mr. Su, how do you plan to let Shaolin enter the WTO to spread the Dharma?"
Su Huai stood up and said his thoughts:
"The fist is named after the temple, the temple is shown by the fist, Shaolin martial arts, in ancient times, it was to protect the temple, and now it can be used to promote the Dharma. ”
"Martial arts propagation?" Elder North and Abbot Nanyun were both full of doubts, and Abbot Nanyun said:
"How can we be able to get on the stage with these superficial kung fu in our temple? Could it be that Mr. Su is planning to do some competitive events? We Buddhists can't compete and be competitive. ”
Su Huai said with a smile: "Shaolin Kung Fu is no longer needed to protect the temple, but it can make Kung Fu artistic and become a work of art, dare to ask Elder Bei, how does Shakyamuni Buddha live all sentient beings?"
