The two living Buddhas of Tantra have arrived, and the main personnel are all together.

There are still some monks from the small monasteries left.

After inquiring at noon, there were probably more than 200 people who had not yet arrived.

Now most of the monks are on the other side of the hotel, walking around with each other and talking about the Dharma.

There are also a few people who have nothing to do, so they come to the branch temple to go around.

After eating at noon, the food was still sent by the Huang Jushi, but it was given money.

After all, there are thousands of people, and a meal costs tens of thousands of yuan, so they can't let people pay this money.

This time, all the expenses were taken care of by the Pure Heart Temple.

Among the monks who came in the afternoon, there were two high monks, and they were both from the Tiantai sect, and they belonged to the usual seclusion on the mountain.

In this way, there are three great masters of the Tiantai sect, two of Zen and Tantra, and one of the Vinaya.

The Three Treatises Sect and the Faxiang Sect have been in decline for a long time.

The Huayan sect is not in decline, but it is not thriving either. No high-ranking monks came this time, but none of the people from Huayan Sect felt that there was anything wrong.

Only the Pure Land Sect, as the most prosperous sect at present, did not even show up a single senior monk, although the others did not say anything, Jing Zhen always felt a little lost.

After the two eminent monks of the Tiantai Sect arrived in the afternoon, Su Wen noticed that Jing Zhen was always a little depressed, and he understood what he was thinking after a turn of thought.

But I can't say anything about it, I can only understand it myself.

By the end of the night, a total of 1,241 people had arrived. The number of people set before was 1,185, but there were almost 60 more.

These are the additional number of people, such as the two high-ranking monks of the Tiantai Sect, who are not among the original personnel.

Fortunately, in the end, there was nothing wrong with all aspects of food and accommodation, and that Huang Shizhu did make a lot of efforts in the past few days.

In his own hotel, a few rooms were deliberately vacated, just for fear that there would be something wrong in the end.

For the past two nights, the whole street was full of bald heads, and those who didn't know thought they were in the wrong place.

After all, almost no one had ever been to the imperial capital, and many of the young disciples were quiet and active at night, and they all walked around the neighborhood, so they could talk to their senior brothers and junior brothers when they returned.

As a result, the area around this street is full of bald heads at night.

Since ancient times, the disciples of Buddhism are a family, and these are all here to participate in the creation of the Buddhist Association, which is the same goal, and it is all the eight sects of Buddhism, which family does not want to be embarrassed outside, so when they come out, many teachers and elders have told them to be polite and courteous, if you are not thoughtful, you must clean you up when you go back.

Therefore, these disciples had to stop and salute the monks who came over on the opposite side before they could walk a few steps: "Poor monk XX temple XX, I have seen senior brother." ”

The two sides said hello and then went their separate ways.

After a few steps, he ran into someone again, and stopped again.

Even the shopkeepers and pedestrians on the side of the road felt tired looking at them like this.

Many disciples didn't care at first, after all, they rarely went down the mountain, and they didn't see many disciples from other temples.

But after walking for an hour, I didn't go far, but my mouth was dry, and I fainted halfway first.

Many disciples looked at it and said, "Let's go back to the hotel and rest." As a result, it took a lot of effort to return to the hotel and never go out again.

This incident was passed on to Su Wen's ears as a joke by Miaozang, and even Su Wen laughed for a while.

However, I also feel from the bottom of my heart that there is really too little communication between the various sects and temples of Buddhism.

Early the next morning, thousands of people rushed to Jiming Mountain after breakfast in the hotel.

The buses took almost one after the other, and it took more than twenty to send everyone over.

During this period, there was no basket at all, which made many people greatly admire the personnel in charge of the Pure Heart Temple.

When they arrived at the temple, the courtyard was already full of futons, and each person had a place to sit according to the sect and the monastery.

Fortunately, most of the people were very quiet, and there were people arranged by the ancestral court to schedule, so it was not noisy, and it didn't take long for all the seats to be filled.

By the time everyone was seated, it was already nine o'clock.

When the time came, Su Wen came to the front of everyone first, and sat at the top of the steps in front of the main hall, just so that everyone could see it.

"Dear fellow initiates, great masters, we have gathered here this time for the same grand goal.

What this goal is, I don't need to say that everyone knows it, otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here. ”

All the people here are from Buddhism, and there are about 300 Dharma masters, so it can be said that they are all experts.

Su asked a mouth, and the voice seemed to sound in everyone's ears, and this hand made everyone amazed and ashamed.

The abbot of the Pure Heart Temple in front of him is not only skillful, but also far beyond ordinary people in his Buddhist cultivation.

"Why did we set up the Buddhist Association? For a long time, our Buddhism has been scattered, and the Buddhist Association is trying to change this situation.

Many people think that my cultivation of Buddhism is my own business, and that I am doing so much about foreign affairs.

Practicing is not just meditation, not just chanting Buddha. Can you become a Buddha by meditating?

If we could, we wouldn't be here now.

Of course, that doesn't mean it can't. The Buddha said that there are 84,000 methods, and each of them can become a Buddha. Among them, it is not an exaggeration to say that it can be achieved just by meditating and reciting the Buddha.

Most people still have to communicate.

One of the most important functions of the Buddhist Association is to communicate with each other and build a platform so that everyone can communicate with each other and listen to the experiences of others, so that they can make progress.

Let's talk about the second point, when we become a Buddha, we can do without relying on all external things, but we haven't become a Buddha yet, so we still need external things. At least you have to eat, make sure that you don't starve to death, and only when you live can you recite Buddhism and practice. Do you still need to be dressed, and you can only get warm when you wear clothes?

Most monasteries can still achieve these two elements of survival. However, there are still some monasteries located in relatively remote places, where there is not much incense, and the wealth and food are limited, so they always have to worry about what to eat for the next meal, so how can they still have the heart to practice?

The second purpose of the Buddhist Association is to help each other and ensure that each monastery can meet the basic needs of life, so that they can practice with peace of mind.

The third purpose is to regulate, punish, and deal with disputes. There is a thing that many people may know, there is a big Buddha temple in Min Province, and the monks of the Iron Buddha Temple had a quarrel before, and directly injured the person, if it was not for the timely treatment, the person would have died.

And the Iron Buddha Temple has no way to ask for help in this matter, and no one cares. Later, when I posted on the Internet, I was noticed by a disciple of this temple, so I arranged for someone to investigate. As a result, this investigation found a big problem, the Big Buddha Temple turned out to be the dojo of the White Lotus Sect. Who could have imagined this before?"

Su Wen paused for a while when he said this, and everyone looked at each other, many people had heard about the matter of the Big Buddha Temple, but they didn't expect that there was such a hidden secret.

"Huisheng, a poor monk in the Iron Buddha Temple, asked what the master said, and everything was true. If it weren't for the help of the Pure Heart Temple, I am afraid that the poor monks and disciples would have already returned to the Buddha land at this time. A monk stood up and said something to everyone, which confirmed Su Wen's words.

"There is a problem in the Big Buddha Temple, not necessarily no one notices, but I don't know who to talk to, no one cares, so I have been mixed into my Buddhism for hundreds of years, and now it has been discovered.

When the Iron Buddha Temple encounters such a thing, there is nowhere to go high, if it is not for the Internet speech to be known, I am afraid that there is no way to ask for help.

This kind of thing is not a special case.

In the future, the Buddhist Association will be able to take charge of these things, and everyone can report anything directly, and naturally there will be a committee to arrange for someone to investigate and mediate, or punish them. ”

After Su Wen finished speaking, everyone nodded. Although they already have a certain understanding of the functions of the Buddhist Association, Su Wen's words let everyone know more intuitively what the Buddhist Association can help them.

"There is a fourth purpose. From the perspective of monasteries across the country, the phenomenon of dilution of faith and lax precepts abounds, and there are many people who pretend to be people from our Buddhist sect to swagger and deceive. In particular, some monasteries, in the name of Buddhism, are completely for the purpose of making profits, and have no meaning of propagating the Dharma and benefiting people. We must eliminate such cases. ”

After Su Wen said this, many people looked at a monk in the crowd.

This monk is called Yong'an, and he is the abbot of Nantai Temple, but he couldn't even see the Buddha statue that day, and many people looked at him a little weird after this matter spread. And on the first day he came, he was still wearing a string of Buddha beads with yellow pears, and boasted to the people in the same car, and his behavior was extremely ridiculous.

In the eyes of others, this person is the kind of person who Su Wen said.

Yongan saw that everyone was looking at him, and suddenly he couldn't sit still, and couldn't help but get up and said, "Su asked the abbot, we don't want to do this either." It's just that people in some places meddle in the monasteries, and we can't even do it if we don't agree, and we can't even practice normally and receive pilgrims, so how can we practice?"

Su Wen glanced at him, and then said: "This kind of thing, the Buddhist Association will be responsible for handling it in the future." Anyone who is harassed by the local government, whether it is an idle person or some basic department, can report it to the Buddhist Association, and then someone will be arranged to investigate and deal with it.

But there is one thing, don't use the Buddhist Association as a pretense, even though we are monks, we also have to obey the laws of the world. If someone is approached for breaking the law, and the Buddhist Association finds out about it, they will also punish you. ”

Su Wen's gaze swept around the field, and many people lowered their eyes.

Su Wen is like a mirror in his heart, and I'm afraid there are not one or two people with unclean buttocks. In the past, unless the matter was relatively big, the Buddhist Association would not pursue it. But if you do this after that, you will be punished by the punishment and removed from the Buddha's door.

"The Buddhist monastery, after all, is a pure place for monks to practice, and it is a place to open the mountain gate to promote Buddhism. ”
