Suwen Hui Monastery asked people to prepare some Buddhist scriptures, and they were translated into the vernacular. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After all, many of the people in the detention center do not have high academic qualifications, so they can't understand the classical Chinese version at all.

On the contrary, the vernacular version is easier to understand the story inside, and you can also learn something.

This time, Su Wen did not think about letting them realize the benefits of the Dharma once or twice, but planned to slowly let them understand the Dharma, know some of the things in the Dharma, and subtly let them remember them.

After all, they are all people who have been in the detention center for a long time, and they have nothing to do every day, and they are most empty. It is a good choice for them to read the stories inside and subtly keep the Dharma in their hearts.

The next day, Su Wen took Xinghui and Xingtian to the detention center, carrying two large bags of scriptures.

It is not a classic such as the "Diamond Sutra" and "Ranga Sutra" for the introduction of Zen Buddhism, but the "Sutra of Amitayus" in the Five Sutras of the Pure Land Buddhism, which is a spiritual classic of the Pure Land Buddhism.

Because this scripture is a very strong story, it is also very suitable for those in the detention center.

This time, Su Wen brought 100 copies of the Sutra of Amitayus, 50 of which were distributed to those people, and 50 copies were left in the study room of the detention center, and if anyone else wanted to read it, he would give it to them.

Su Wen told them a few stories from the Diamond Sutra and some allusions that day, and then left two hours later.

"Did he do this?" Some of the police officers in the detention center wondered, the Pure Heart Temple is now so famous in the East China Sea, and there are many rumors about the abbot Su Wen. They thought they could have something great, but they didn't expect that they would tell a few stories and leave after coming twice, which was somewhat disappointing.

"You don't care if it has any effect, anyway, what the above explained, just let him come and go. The other said disapprovingly.

Now it's all compulsory education, and these people have been in school for nine years of ideological and moral education, haven't they still entered the detention center?

If you want to take the basic Buddhist scriptures, let them change their ways, and dream about it.

When she went back, Xinghui finally couldn't help but ask Su, "Abbot, is it useful for us to do this?"

"What do they do in the detention center every day?" Su Wen asked rhetorically.

"There's nothing to do, right?" Xinghui thought for a while and said, "These two times I came to pass by those rooms, I saw that the people inside were all idle. ”

"Since they have nothing to do, there is a storybook to relieve boredom, will they read it?" asked Su Wen again.

Xinghui thought about herself, if she was there, she would definitely be looking. Not to mention storybooks, even if he gives himself an ancient book of Chinese literature, he will definitely read it.

Because there's really nothing else to do in there. It's always good to have something to pass the time.

And then even if they can't remember the story, they will at least have a little impression. Su Wen said.

What's more, the descriptions of many things in the book both make them yearn for and make them repulse. ”

"Yearning, rejection, abbot, how do you say that?" Xinghui didn't understand the meaning of Su Wen, and asked sincerely.

"Longing is their yearning for the Pure Land scenery in the story, the endless life of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, and they yearn for these. Not to mention them, even a normal person would yearn for them. ”

And rejection is because they don't believe. Their education has led them to scoff at the stories in the scriptures. After all, no one takes a story seriously. ”

"And then?" Xinghui asked subconsciously.

"Then, they will contradict me. Su Wen said: "If there is a refutation, if there is an argument, I will explain." They came up with it, so they will take my explanation to heart. In this way, they remember. ”

"That's it?" Xinghui didn't understand, even if they remembered it, what was the use? They still didn't believe it.

"Some of them will start to waver, and if they were out there, they would definitely leave these things behind. But they can't get out of the detention center, they have nothing to do, they don't have the interference of outside information, and if they have these things in their heads, they will ponder. The more I pondered, the more impressed I became, and the more I doubted. ”

"It's up to us to do it. Su Wen said with a smile: "After all, no one has ever done this before, after all, the Buddha has a fate, and only if there is a fate, can he cross." This time, I also crossed the river by feeling the stones and made an attempt. ”

Su Wen thought about this for a long time, and felt that in this environment, the chances of success were not small.

A few people returned to the Taoist temple, and Xingzheng came to Su Wen and said, "Abbot, Daoji Dade is back." ”

Su Wen was slightly stunned, Dao Ji had been gone for more than a month. It's time to come back.

"And Dao Ji Dade also brought back an apprentice. Xingzheng added.

Su Wen smiled when he heard this: "This is a good thing. can make Daoji Dade look at it, he is indeed a person with Buddha fate. ”

"Go back, and I'll go see Dao Ji. Su Wen asked the three of them to leave, returned to the monk's house by himself, and knocked on the door in front of Daoji's room.

I thought that the Dao Franciscan would be in the room, but I didn't expect it to be there.

Su Wen went to the pharmacist hospital again, and saw that many people in the pharmacist hospital were there, and most of them were patients who were seeing a doctor. With the reopening of the mountain gate, more people went to the temple to see Xiuyan for medical treatment.

Su Wen walked around inside, but still didn't see Daoji, which made him a little strange. Where did Dao Ji go when he came back?

Since he couldn't find it, he didn't look for it anymore and went straight back to his room.

As a result, as soon as I pushed open the door, I saw Dao Ji lying on the kang on all fours, one leg still cocked, and there was a snoring sound.

A young man of sixteen or seventeen years old next to him stood respectfully, and although Daoji was asleep, he still did not look slack.

"You are the disciple that Daoji Dade just accepted, right?" asked Su Wen with a smile.

"Master Daoji said to see how I perform. The young man said.

"Come out and talk, don't disturb his sleep. Su Wen beckoned.

The young man looked at Dao Ji and then at Su Wen, but he didn't move, but hung his head down.

Su Wen smiled when he saw him like this. "This is my room, I'm the abbot here. You don't have to worry, Dao Ji Dade won't blame you. ”

The young man looked up and looked at Su Wen carefully, as if to confirm that what he said was true or false.

He had already seen it when he went up the mountain just now, the temple covers a huge area, the building is magnificent and solemn, and there are many monks in the temple.

On the third floor, I also saw some people practicing martial arts next to me, and many people watching from the side.

He felt in his heart that the abbot of such a large temple must be a highly respected monk.

I didn't expect it to be a very young monk.

The young man thought for a moment, but finally shook his head. His mind is very simple, he wants to worship Daoji as a teacher, not to worship the abbot here as a teacher, it doesn't matter who the abbot is, and the abbot's words don't mean that he has to listen, but Daoji is here, so he won't leave.
