When I arrived at the meditation hall, there were already many people standing in the meditation hall, and the bedding was placed at their feet. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The crowd waited for a few minutes, and a few more people came in.

Su Wen counted it, not counting the total of thirty-seven people in the field, in addition to Decheng, Tianru, Changguan, and Daoyan, there were also 33 disciples of the Xingzi generation who participated.

Xingyuan, the only mage in the Xingzi generation, was naturally also present. In addition to him, most of the monks from Lingshan Temple such as Xing Nan were also there, and only two people were present for Xingzheng and others, namely the Xing Yin of Zhike Hall and the Xingben of Yunshui Temple.

In addition, disciples such as practicing wisdom, virtue, law, precepts, and discipline were also present.

It's no different from the list that was given to him yesterday.

When the time came, Su Wen took out a piece of paper from his bosom and asked Xinghui to stick it on the wall next to him, on which was the timetable for the seven days of Zen.

It is mainly divided into morning incense, breakfast incense, morning four incense, morning six incense, lunch incense, afternoon four incense, evening incense, nourishing incense, late four incense, late six incense, and last incense.

The main reason is that in the past, most of the time the temple was timed with incense, and the name of an incense was a time period.

Each of these items is divided into several subsections, such as morning incense, which is divided into:

4:30 Four plates

Incense rises at 5:00

5:10 Hanging two plates (eat ginger)

5:20 a.m

5:25 Extraction

Silence at 5:30

6:30 a.m

The same is true for other early four sticks, early six sticks, and so on.

In this way, the whole day is planned very carefully, with little to spare.

However, it is not all about meditation, but also includes other contents, such as "standing board", which is to get up and walk after a period of sitting meditation, and move a little to let the blood flow throughout the body.

After all, there are not many people who can get to the point where they can sit in meditation for a few days.

The timetable was pasted, and after everyone read it, Su Wen stood in front and said, "Everyone is on leave for life and death." ”

Everyone had no experience, and they didn't know how to tell this life and death fake, so they said with a solemn face: "Disciples, make a promise to the Buddha, to the Three Treasures, and to the abbot, during the seven meditation periods, you must have experience, you must have attainment, and you must have understanding, otherwise you will die in the meditation hall." ”

As the words of martyrdom echoed in the meditation hall, the atmosphere was a little solemn and heavy for a while.

After he spoke, others also spoke one after another, saying the same thing, all of which was a promise and a pressure on themselves.

“…… During the seventh period of Zen, you must have experience, you must have attainment, and you must have understanding, otherwise you will die in the meditation hall. ”

At the end, a childish voice sounded, and Yukita was infected by the surrounding atmosphere, and he also said the words of appeal with a serious face.

After everyone finished speaking, Su Wen nodded, and then slapped his palm.

A few people suddenly walked in outside the meditation hall, only to see Lu Zhishen and Tan Zong carrying a thing to the front, and then spread out the items in their hands on the ground.

Only then did everyone realize that they had brought in five stretchers, lined up in front of everyone.

Lu Zhishen and the others put down their things and retreated. Although no one spoke in the field, everyone's hearts were heavy.

These stretchers were not placed on the ground, but on their hearts.

Su Wen looked at the crowd in front and spoke:

"You must know that the seven rules of Zen are strict and different from the usual.

What's the difference? Even today, you have taken a leave of life and death to your ancestors in the past, and you have taken a leave of life and death to me. I allow your life and death to be false, and your life and death are grasped in my two hands, and if you want to live, you will live, and if you want to die, you will die—stand here and die.

In ordinary times, the color body is handed over to the permanent residence, and the life is paid for the dragon; Otherwise, in the seventh phase, my body and life are in my hands.

In the next seven periods, the Qing people and Xingshan did not put their palms together with Vina, nor did they ask the head of the class for an inquiry, nor did they ask me with their palms together.

In the seventh period, the Buddha does not worship, and the incense is not burned, what do you inquire and do with your palms? ”

After asking rhetorically, he continued to speak to everyone, and his words were unpleasant, but the words of the content seemed to have a shape and smashed on the hearts of the people, making people's hearts tremble.

"I'll tell you beforehand: a big deal is a big illness; During your time here, you have no contact with the outside world, and at most you will get sick. When I get sick, I usually take a leave of absence, but this time I can't. Not only sick leave, but also incense leave, menstrual leave, and even all leave.

What should I do if I am sick? There is no way, life is also seven, death is also seven, good is also seven, illness is also seven, and eventually seven is played. Even if you are seriously ill and can't stand, how can you run? When you really reach the point where you can't run, you will throw your body to the stretcher, whether you are sick, alive, or dead, until you are sent to life after the seventh day.

Seven periods are not sent to life, and three or five are always thrown to the bottom of the broad order, which is a sick solution. ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces turned pale. In the past, no matter how hard the cultivation was, it had nothing to do with life and death, it was nothing more than how much effort you worked on. But at this time, after listening to Su Wen's words, they realized that Zen Seven is really different from the past Zen meditation. No wonder it is so harsh to sue for life and death leave.

But they had only listened to a small part of it, and they already felt extremely harsh. If you are sick, you can stand up, and if you can't get through it, you will die. When have you ever heard of such a rule?

But they didn't know that Zen Qi was much harsher and more terrifying than they thought now.

Su Wen continued with a serious face:

"Also, in the seven phases of your incense, incense, and hall, and even the large and small rooms, you drop your head for a while, or laugh for a while, then, I tell you: Your life is gone!

How not?

As soon as you enter the hall, the incense boards of the head of the class and the Vena come up together, and one or twenty incense boards, regardless of the head, face, and ears, are beaten together, and they are not dead, or they are beaten seven. If he died, he would throw it at the bottom of the stretcher, and send him to life after the seven days.

It's not an ordinary punishment, but a small punishment, if you are injured, you will be sent to the pharmacist hospital, which is not like this in the seventh phase.

A few died in the seventh issue, which is a common thing, not a peculiar.

I tell you again and again: Whatever rules are explained, it is what it is; Don't show favoritism, you can't miss a little.

I always say one more thing: if you are sick and want to die, you don't get sick leave, and when you die, you will be thrown under the stretcher; broke the rules and was killed, and was also thrown under the stretcher. I have explained it to you, and there must be no mistake. Also, in normal times, you have to go to the toilet in silence and ask Vena for leave, and Vena will open the door and go out with six incense boards.

It is not allowed in the seventh period, because there are twelve incense sticks a day, and there can be twenty-four times on the shelves, even if you have diarrhea, you are not allowed to open the door; You just pull it in your pants or pull it on the mat, and you don't blame it, you can pull it up on the mat, but you can't open the door.

Be ye careful! ”

As soon as Su Wen said this, everyone below gasped in unison.

If you make a mistake, you will be beaten directly to death, if you are not dead, you will continue to Zen Qi, and if you die, you will throw it there, and the corpse will not be allowed to be carried out, and you will not be able to lift it out until the end of Zen Qi.

This kind of rule makes everyone's hearts feel cold.

Throughout these two thousand years, there has been no such rule in Buddhism.

And now it's the twenty-first century, can you still kill people?

Even the difficulty of walking feels a little incredible.

Ke Suwen's face was cold at this time, very different from the usual young man with a gentle smile. Just looking at Su Wen's eyes, he knew that what he said at this moment was completely serious.

He's really going to enforce the rules.

Su Wen kept looking at the people below with a cold face and looking at him incredulously, and waited for a few minutes for them to digest what they said before continuing:

"What's the matter with playing seven? It is nothing more than meditation, enlightenment, birth, liberation from death, and nothing else.

During these seven days, everyone should recognize a saying, either 'who is chanting the Buddha', or 'who was your true face before your parents were alive', or 'all the laws are one, where is one return', or reciting a Buddha's name, holding a mantra, in short, everyone follows the root machine and bluntness, the good root of the world, the cause of the present life, any practice of one Dharma, perseverance, unswerving, in the middle of the two or six hours, at any time, to tear up, to live, sit and lie down, and not to leave this. With such effort, Fang Fu is the purpose of the seven-gram period of Zen to obtain evidence. ”

Unbeknownst to everyone, this rule is a system that has been practiced in another world for thousands of years.

And to play "Zen Seven", there is also a name - Life and Death Seven.
