One thought to become a Buddha, or one thought to become a demon?

From now on, this girl will be despised and spurned by everyone?

She stared at the monk in front of her, her eyes shining with an unyielding light. Maybe it's because she's young, ignorant and fearless, maybe she's self-stubborn and willful, in short, she's now provoking his majesty.

The Master smiled, not seeming to see her gaze, or rather not react to her gaze. Like anger...

But it was precisely because of this that there was no reaction at all, but it made the girl's heart begin to bear great pressure. She guessed that he must be very angry, and even prepared to add many crimes to himself, maybe he would die, maybe he would affect her relatives..., and she faintly began to regret it...

"Whoever does not worship the gods like this should be immersed in a pig's pen..."

"If the gods are angry and send down a natural disaster, won't we be affected in vain?! The plan now is to soak her in the pig cage to dissipate the wrath of the gods, and we can all be safe. ”

"Uncle Zhang is right." Someone's eyes lit up

"Yes, yes..., her family should also be immersed in the pig pen...", someone echoed excitedly.

A few became agitated, while the majority became silent.

As the saying goes, it doesn't hurt your family. Some people have vaguely felt that it is too much for this girl to dip in the pig cage, but it is a matter of the anger of the gods, and she can only be sacrificed, but at this moment, someone proposed to let her whole family die, this...

The noisy chatter of the surrounding people reached the ears of the girl and the outsider. The outsider's face was pale, sweat flowed, and he regretted bringing his daughter here. It's just that, apparently, it's too late.

The discussion behind it is like a tide, and the pressure is like a sea. It's just that it further aroused her unyielding resistance, and she looked at him more and more stubbornly, looking at the monk in front of her.

"This benefactor is really a person with wisdom roots, and understands the principles of Buddhism, but—" He spoke, his words were beyond everyone's expectations, but they would echo everyone's expectations. This is just an obvious turning point, and it is obvious that she intends to investigate her for disrespecting the Buddha.

"It's a pity that the donor is a woman, and my Big Buddha Temple only accepts men, so it's a pity that I can't be a brother with the donor..."

Their eyes were wide open, their mouths were open, and they were shocked as if they had been struck by lightning. Just a little less charred and soot.

The master looked around, a hint of loss in his eyes, before he spoke slowly.

"To cultivate a Buddha is to cultivate oneself, to improve one's self-cultivation, morality, and knowledge, and to achieve the goal of becoming oneself a Buddha. Actually, you are not worshipping the Buddha in this temple, but your own Buddha. ”

"The abbot of my Great Buddha Temple, the holy monk of Wushan, once opened Chrysostom to talk about Buddhism, saying: Cultivating Buddha is accumulating goodness, accumulating goodness is cultivating Buddha, and the way of Buddhism is nothing but goodness..."

Everyone may not believe in the master in front of them, but there will never be a person who does not believe in the holy monk of Wushan.

Sure enough, after the master finished quoting the words of the holy monk Wushan, everyone's faces showed convincing.

"However, many of you have just clearly developed evil thoughts in your hearts, hoping that this female benefactor will die and save yourself..., such behavior is really disappointing."

The faces of the people became ashamed, and some even showed a hint of determination on their faces, were they thinking about dying by themselves?

"However, people are not Buddhas after all, or you are not Buddhas now, and it is normal for you to have evil thoughts in your heart. It is precisely because of these demonic thoughts that I can get closer and closer to the Buddha through cultivating the Buddha. Therefore, you do not have to blame yourselves. ”

Everyone has no place to be ashamed, and they almost want to find a crack in the ground to get into. But that

"This female benefactor did not bow down because she understood the truth of cultivating Buddhism, and she was born with a wisdom root..."

After he finished speaking, he finally turned around and walked into a door next to him, not knowing what to do.

"Liu Yuanwai, just now..., it's really offended, please Haihan..."

"I was confused just now..., no, it was the demons in my heart that made me say that..."

Everyone began to apologize, but as soon as they finished speaking, they hurriedly walked away, obviously a little shameless to stay here any longer.

It wasn't until a few people left one after another that the outside reacted to what had happened, and he hurriedly returned the salute.

"Where, where, a little misunderstanding, but it makes the big guy worry, I'll set up a few tables of banquets another day, everyone must appreciate their faces..."

"It's polite to outsiders, it's because we're not authentic, and our Dharma cultivation is not enough..."

"Where, if you have cultivated enough Dharma, won't you all become Buddhas? I'm afraid I won't be able to invite you at that time..."The staff suddenly quipped.

"Haha," the crowd laughed in agreement.

"This matter is so decided, on the second day of the next month, please come to the Humble House..."

"Definitely..."

"Extra-staff Gao Yi..."

"Sure enough, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, there is such a daughter with wise roots, and the father is really also a profound Dharma..."

In a polite voice, everyone dispersed one after another and went down the mountain.

Only Yuan Wai and his daughter were left in the huge Buddha hall.

He reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead and face with his sleeve, then turned his head and looked at the tall golden Buddha statue in a daze. After a few moments, he fell to his knees and kowtowed respectfully.

"Daughter—" he said, standing up and turning around. It's just that when he saw his daughter's demeanor, he was stunned.

At some point, she seemed to be awakened by her father's voice, she smiled at him, and then bowed down to the golden Buddha statue.

"You...?" He waited for her to get up before he asked. Apparently, his daughter's approach surprised him a little.

"Father, if it wasn't for the master to break the siege just now, the consequences would be unimaginable. In your opinion, did the master deliberately help us? She asked, but it was clear that she meant yes.

The staff was stunned for a moment, in fact, he vaguely felt like this, otherwise he would not have bowed down so reverently.

"The master's Dharma cultivation is profound, far from what we can imagine..., and the lives of our family can be said to have been saved by the master." He sighed.

"To cultivate the Buddha is to cultivate goodness...", the girl whispered, her eyes beginning to fill with light.

"Father, we might as well build a soup kitchen when we get back, we might as well save many lives," she said, her eyes almost burning.

The eyes of the staff lit up.

"Good idea, Wu'er really has a wisdom root..."

Since then, there has been an extra soup kitchen shed in the town under the Big Buddha Temple, and the soup soup is served rain or shine every morning, never stopping, and I don't know how many lives have been saved. The people sang their praises.

The family outside the staff died without illness, this is a later story.
