These days there is chaos outside, today the Pure Land sect says that Tantra does not belong to Buddhism, tomorrow the Huayan sect says that the origin of the so-called Zen Buddhism in the Pure Heart Temple is unknown, and the acquired Tantra says that the Vinaya sect is stubbornly conservative. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoAfter the high-level leaders of the sect spoke out at the beginning, few people spoke in the past few days. However, some young disciples and some lay people were arguing on the Internet, and the anger became more and more intense, and at first it was only the Nyingma sect of the Red Sect that spoke, but within a day, even the Gelug sect of the Yellow Sect was drawn in.

On the contrary, the Pure Heart Temple has not made any remarks from the beginning, and has always remained silent, even if it is often pulled out by other sects to belittle and denounce together with Tantra, it will not say a word.

Su Wen has a plan in his heart, and every day is still as usual, as if he doesn't know everything about the outside world.

In fact, the Pure Heart Temple itself was not affected too much, and that was enough. Most of the pilgrims in the temple know the strangeness of the Pure Heart Temple, and they are naturally not affected by outside speech. As for those tourists, they were originally there to see the birds and beasts that listened to the lectures every day, and the controversy in the outside world did not have much impact.

On the contrary, because the reputation of the pure heart tea of the Pure Heart Temple has spread these days, there are more people going up the mountain these days. Those who didn't drink it at the beginning regretted it in their hearts, and they didn't wait a little longer, but now there are more people who "fight" for tea every day, and the front of the main hall is more noisy every day.

Fortunately, with the addition of everyone from Lingshan Temple, the temple is now much more abundant.

At this time, Su Wen was plowing in the back mountain naked under the sun, his trousers were pulled up to his knees, his feet were full of mud, and from time to time bean-sized sweat slipped down his spine. After distributing the exchanged seeds of Zen cabbage and white jade radish, in the past two days, the people of Jingxin Temple have been cleaning up the fields on the mountain and planting seeds on the other hand, and from time to time they have to go to the fields of Changmi to weed.

There are a lot of weeds in the fields where we grow in the rice fields, and they grow quickly, so basically three or four people can weed every day to keep them from being everywhere. Originally, this work was done by older children, but now it is the work of the monks in the temple.

For the new rules issued in the temple, most of the monks of the Xingzi generation are difficult to understand, including Xingyan and others, and they really can't figure out what the relationship between farming and cultivation is. In the past, in Lin San Temple, as long as the people in the temple finished the arranged work every day, they could arrange it more freely at other times.

And now every morning at 5:30 a.m. to get up for morning class, after breakfast, some people go up the mountain to work, and the other part of the people do the things that the temple should do, such as the Zhike Hall is to clean and receive pilgrims, such as Yunshui Temple to count and sort out the items in the temple. In the afternoon, it was replaced, followed by evening classes, and at about 7 o'clock in the evening, I began to meditate for two hours, and from 9 to 10:30 I was reciting Buddhist scriptures.

Although there were some complaints in their hearts, Su Wen and Fahai took the lead, and even Deyan, Depp, and Ma Tian had to do what they could, so that everyone couldn't say anything. Especially after the establishment of the rules this time, the rules in the temple are much stricter, and seven monks were punished for violating the rules yesterday alone.

If there is anyone in the temple who can take a leisurely time, it is the collection and fruit in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. After all, cleaning in the Scripture Pavilion is still relatively easy work, and the cleaning is also very fast.

"Abbot, someone has sent a stone tablet and wants you to go down and receive it. Xingsong trotted to the edge of the field and shouted at Su Wen, who was cultivating the field.

Su Wen raised his head and wiped his sweat, then glanced at the people who were planting seeds and watering in the back, and then walked to the edge of the field and put the monk's robe on his body.

The stele was customized by him the day before he set up the "Wuxiang Ring" and "Zen Gate Qing Rules", and it was not delivered until today, which took almost 6 days.

When he came to the bottom of the mountain with a pine, seven or eight people were using a crane to lift a stone tablet more than three meters high and one meter five wide, with dense handwriting engraved on it, from the bottom of the mountain.

"One, two, put"

Su Wen and the monks of Zhiketang stepped forward to help put the stone tablet firmly on the ground.

Next was a smaller stone tablet, followed by two more bases.

If the stele and base are attached together and it is difficult to transport, it is much easier to install them in a split like this.

"Abbot, where is this stone tablet?" the person in charge of transportation recognized Su Wen at a glance, and did not mention the matter of signing for it, but first asked where to put it.

"Put it in the back. Su Wen stretched out his finger and pointed at it, this stele is going to be placed next to the stone steps connecting the second floor on the first floor, and the full text of the "Zen Gate Qing Rules" is engraved on it, so that the monks in the temple can see it every day when they go in and out, and always record it in their hearts.

Another smaller stone tablet is placed at the mountain gate, and it is engraved with a poem for the lay people who go up the mountain to keep themselves awake:

The mind is peaceful, what is the hard work, and the practice of meditation is straight;

Kindness is filial piety to parents, and righteousness is compassion for each other.

Let the humble and harmonious, and endure the evil;

If you can drill wood to make fire, the silt will give birth to red lotus.

The bitter mouth is good medicine, and the bad ear is the good word.

Reform will give birth to wisdom, and protect the short-hearted non-virtuous.

Daily use is often beneficial, and enlightenment is not due to money.

Bodhi only seeks from the heart, and He Lao seeks the mystery from the outside.

I heard that according to this practice, heaven is only in the present.

This stele with a height of more than two meters attracted many onlookers as soon as it stood at the mountain gate, and soon someone gave it a name: Zen Gate Lay Monument. I have to say that the person who took this name was quite talented, the name and content were appropriate, and soon the name spread.

I have to say that after this stele was erected, the reputation of the Pure Heart Temple was much higher.

The first sentence alone makes many people feel good. Completely different from the dogmatic things of other denominations, the essence of which is pointed out in just one sentence.

This is a non-phase verse, which shows that Zen Buddhism is different from other sects, putting aside all those complicated rules and regulations, and completely idealism, everything is determined by the heart.

These include peace of mind, integrity, filial piety to parents, and friendliness to others, which can be said to be completely in line with the values of Confucianism, intellectuals, and the general public.

That night, the ode to the Wuxiang on the monument of the Zen monk was spread on the Internet, and many netizens praised it when they saw it.

This unphased verse also reaffirms the core of Zen Buddhism, which is that everything comes from the heart. Unlike the practice of other sects, the ultimate goal of becoming a Buddha feels too far away to be reached. Zen Buddhism, on the other hand, proposes that everyone is originally a Buddha and has a Buddha nature in their hearts, but they are obscured by delusional separation and attachment. If you want to practice, you don't need to seek external methods, you just need to do it in the unphased verse, so that the pure mind can appear.

This Wuxiang Ode also really made the names of Pure Heart Temple and Zen Buddhism remembered in everyone's hearts, in the practice of Buddhism, not in martial arts.

It can be said that from this unphased verse, Buddhism also began to be completely secularized, from the outside world to the world. (To be continued.) )
