Chapter 984: Getting Started

Li Junge poured back again: "Uncle, what's the matter? There is only one way to go to Fawang Temple here, just go along this red stone road, no need to ask for directions." ”

The middle-aged man had a big belly and said, "No...... Can you help us pick up the oil? We're a little bit unable to walk, so let's not do it for nothing, I'll give you twenty ...... Not thirty!"

Li Junge said with a smile: "I'm afraid you have come to the wrong temple gate, and the monks of Fawang Temple do not accept offerings." ”

Another middle-aged man said, "Little brother, don't talk nonsense, we have walked so many temples, and we haven't heard that temple does not accept offerings. ”

The middle-aged man with a big belly also said: "That's it, little brother, you don't seem to understand Buddhism, Buddhism opens the door to convenience, no matter what way you think will make you to Buddha, Buddhism will recognize it." ”

"Look...... You can copy sutras, you can fast, you can make offerings, no matter which method you use to get started, it's all good. ”

Li Junge said: "I'm not raising the bar with you, since you think the offering is good, then you should practice it, how can you give up halfway? Come on, then I will support you spiritually!"

Another middle-aged man said, "Little brother, don't make trouble, don't you think you don't have enough money?" Then let's add another ten, forty!

Li Junge was about to laugh: "Forty is enough to buy a barrel of oil, right?

The middle-aged man with a big belly said, "How can you do that?

Li Junge took off his clothes, twisted them into strips and passed through the handles of the four oil drums, then tied a knot, adjusted the position of the oil drums, and hung them on his shoulders two in front and two behind: "Okay, then let's go." ”

Along the way, the two middle-aged men brainwashed Li Junge and asked him to convert to Buddhism.

Li Junge said a lot of witty words, and when he saw the moves, he just didn't get into the trap, and turned the journey into the debate scene.

About to walk to the mountain gate, the fat middle-aged man took out his mobile phone and said to another middle-aged man: "I have a Bodhisattva's birthday table in my mobile phone, there are many Bodhisattvas, maybe today is the birthday of which Bodhisattva, then it is just right." ”

The other middle-aged man nodded in goodness.

Li Junge didn't forget to complain: "What, our old saying in Li Jiagou, Arhat please Guanyin - few guests and more hosts! If you have an Arhat birthday watch, it will work!"

The big-bellied middle-aged man didn't bother to pay attention to him, and took out his mobile phone to take a look, the sixteenth day of March of the lunar calendar is the birthday of Zhun Ti Bodhisattva, and March 25 is the birthday of the Buddha of Duobao.

Li Junge couldn't stop laughing: "Two big brothers, is this your worship of the Bodhisattva, or is the Bodhisattva accommodating you?"

The middle-aged man with a big belly said: "Little brother, I found that you don't have any respect for the Bodhisattva, how did you think about the matter of believing in Buddhism before?"

Li Junge said with a smile: "There is a Bodhisattva who purifies the world, and it can be said that China can have so many people now, and this Bodhisattva has made great contributions. Her birthday is on the first day of the eighth month, and if you can tell who this Bodhisattva is, I will believe it immediately. ”

The middle-aged man with a big belly took out his mobile phone again: "That's not easy......? There's no ...... on the top of the table."

I heard a voice say: "Amitabha, the first day of August is the birthday of Sweet Potato, Piwa, you are naughty again." ”

Li Junge turned around and saw Master Guoshan dressed in a gray cloth short, carrying a basket of bamboo shoots on his back, his sleeves were on his arms, and he was holding a firewood knife in his hand.

Li Junge said with a smile: "The two donors sent four barrels of oil to the temple, saying that they were giving to the temple, and they also said that along the way, they have given to many temples, and the Dharma is profound, and they want to influence me to believe in Buddhism." ”

Master Guoshan didn't care, and gave a salute to the three of them, saying, "The two donors will go into the temple with me to serve tea." ”

Entering the Fawang Temple, Master Guoshan put down the back basket, summoned the disciples to deal with the follow-up, asked Li Junge to put down the oil, and took the two middle-aged people to the tea room first, and then he arrived.

After a while, Master Guoshan arrived, changed his clothes, and began to sit down to give tea to the three of them.

The tea room is very elegant and concise, and the new Buddha heart tea is very good, and the two middle-aged people drank it again and again.

After talking for a while, Master Guoshan said: "The two of you came from afar, and Fawang Temple is full of hospitality, but I still want to say a few words to the two of you." ”

The middle-aged man with a big belly was very respectful: "Master, you say." ”

Master Guoshan said: "Just now Piwa told me what you have done all the way, my Buddhist family opened the door of convenience, this is true, but the original intention of opening the door of convenience, the two of you were mistaken. ”

"What is the purpose of opening the door? Now that the door of convenience has been opened, let's go inside. ”

"The essence of Buddhism is to have a clear mind. There is no difference between ordinary people and Buddhas, and the difference is only between delusion. ”

"The process of survival is created in 'impermanence'. 'Impermanence' is the experience of self-growth in one's own orientation and choice in the process of survival. ”

"In every day of life, all survival orientations are sometimes a kind of accumulation of experience, sometimes a kind of learning growth, and sometimes a kind of process of penetration. ”

"Every choice is related to whether one's spirituality rises or falls. Striving to elevate one's own spirituality, using one's spirituality to understand and experience impermanence, is practice. ”

To put it simply, it is to continuously improve one's self-cultivation, improve oneself, and clarify the universe through learning and verification. Finally, we will attain great wisdom and great consummation. ”

"That's what 'get through the door.'" ”

The two of them did something similar to having walked to the door of a Buddhist hall, but they stopped and wiped the door over and over again. ”

"A gate is a gate, and even if you wipe it clean, or even paint it, carve it, and decorate it, it's still just a gate. And you're still outside the door. ”

After speaking, he went up and down three books from the bookshelf in the tea room: "Tan Yue of Zen Buddhism, I recommend these three books." It is relatively safe for studying Buddhism. ”

"You can start with this book of "The Great Treatise on the Second Brother of the Path to Bodhi", if you are really not interested, you can also read this "Sutra of the Six Patriarchs" directly, and then learn the previous one. ”

"The text of the "Altar Sutra" is relatively simple, not difficult to understand, and there are many famous sayings and aphorisms, so it will not be too difficult to learn. ”

In addition, the "Altar Sutra" itself is divided into many kinds, such as the Zongbao book, the Cao Xi book and the Dunhuang book. I am here to write the earliest new Dunhuang book of the era, that is, the Dunbo book. ”

Since the text is already simple, there are many proofreading books on the market, so it is only for reference, and do not take the proofreading as a guideline. ”

"The original explanation obtained from one's own heart is the most precious. ”

"After that, you can look at the Diamond Sutra. The Diamond Sutra has been a Buddhist scripture of Zen Buddhism since the Tang Dynasty, and it has many commentaries, and the six ancestors themselves have a "Diamond Sutra Formula". ”

"If you want to be easy to understand, I recommend this Nan Huaijin's "What Does the Diamond Sutra Say". ”

"I give you these three books. ”

"After becoming interested in Buddhism, I can study the intellectual history of Zen Buddhism, and study how the idea of Zen Buddhism's 'direct to the human heart and clear mind' was formed, developed and evolved, and how it was related to other systems of thought. ”

"At that time, you can take a look at the "History of Zen Buddhism in the Five Tang Dynasties" and "The History of Zen Buddhism in the Song and Yuan Dynasties", and you can also read the "Ancestral Hall Collection". ”

"When you have seen all of this, you can look at the collision of Zen thought with other thoughts, read "The Records of the Tibetan Monks", or read "The Philosophy of Tibetan Buddhism Madhyamaka". ”

"There is another good place, and that is the Lijiagou Forum. There are some superficial views on the ideological systems of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, which were explained by the old man Li Liangchu, the Taoist Shihe and me. ”

"Although we always say whatever we want, we have all been immersed in our respective fields for many years, and in the words of the fourth grandfather of Piwa, that is, the old man Liangchu, we can 'do what we want without exceeding the rules'. ”

On the contrary, it is easier to understand the differences in the ideological systems of the three religions from the details of these daily topics, and even I love to read them. ”

"Again, since they have all come to the door and the door is open, let's go in decisively. Zen Buddhism, welcome to this hall. ”

The two middle-aged men have been running so many temples, and they have never seen anyone lead them to get started, and this time they can be regarded as taught.

Li Junge laughed secretly on the side, those monk temples you went to, the abbot presided over the entrance or not, and they still said two things!

Listening to Master Guoshan has always been a pleasure, and Li Junge always feels that his voice seems to have a kind of religious magic.

Coupled with a kind attitude, excellent knowledge, never difficult to force others, just tell you to listen unconsciously, the two middle-aged men are really as Li Junge expected, full of piety and a look of confidence.

Master Guoshan stood up and said, "Piwa is right, we at Fawang Temple do not accept alms, only rejoicing merits, but those must be registered for temple affairs and believers' Buddhist affairs, not for ourselves. ”

"The monks of Fawang Temple are all Zen farmers and self-reliant, and please understand the two Tan Yue. ”

The two middle-aged people hurriedly stood up and bowed, only saying that this time it was a mistake, and they would never do it again next time.

Master Guoshan smiled: "There is no offense, after this incident, four barrels of oil for six books, if the two of them have a heart, this is really a primer, this is called a great joy." ”

"The cloud board is ringing, please come with me, and please also invite the two of you to experience the vegetarian food of the Fawang Temple, Piwa, this big-bellied walker, isn't this what he is here for? ”

Li Junge smiled: "Master Guoshan, you must be loyal, and you can't expose my shortcomings in front of the guests." ”

For a meal, Li Junge ate four bowls as usual, and everyone else is devout to experience Buddhist culture, and this baby is a real supplement to physical strength.

Out of the Wuguan Hall, I saw the monk looking at him in front of the merit box with joy and sneering.

The famous benefactor of Howang Temple is here again!

Li Junge also sneered in return, and stretched out his hand to the big-bellied middle-aged man who came out: "Take it!"

The middle-aged man with a big belly didn't react: "What?"

Li Junge said: "Wages! You promised to give forty!"

Only then did the big-bellied middle-aged man react: "Oh!"

During the conversation in the tea room just now, the two middle-aged people knew that this Li Datanyue had great merits.

Every year on the eighth day of the fourth month, tens of millions of lives are released, which is simply full of evil and good, pure wisdom and wonderful circle, and the body is empty and lonely, and does not seek to be in the world.

Such a Bodhi in the world, how can he be embarrassed to pay his wages?!

Li Junge couldn't control what people thought, and snatched forty yuan from the middle-aged man with a big belly who was still hesitating.

Then he proudly threw the money into the merit box with joy, and looked at the monk provocatively, humming how about it, Lao Tzu gave the money this time!
