Chapter 17: Shravaka Bodhi
Fahai hurriedly took two steps forward and helped Zen Master Guangzhi up: "Zen Master is too polite, Fahai can't afford such a big gift." ”
The master of the Jialan Hall next to him was also an old monk, and hurriedly said: "The abbot of our temple, Guangzhi Zen Master." ”
Fahai handed over a grateful look, his eyebrows were delicate and picturesque, as if there were rippling water, which was simply breathtaking.
The old monk who was about to enter the ground of the Lord of the Jialan Hall was actually unstable.
"I've seen the abbot, can you tell the story of the palace?"
"Oh, good, good, it's the old man who is slacking off, the holy monk is invited. ”
Fahai has stepped through the void and is not strictly human.
One moment here, the next second.
It's like a ghost in the city.
After Fahai flashed away, the commander-in-chief of the Xiang army in the city gathered the troops and horses in a chaotic manner.
I don't know what to do, so I can only use my subordinates to vent my anger.
Blaming these soldiers for their inability to resist the enemy, they beheaded four people on the spot, punished the overseer for his ineffective supervision, and sent them to prison.
The noise in the city was noisy, but Fahai was not in a hurry or impatient, closed the temple door with a bunch of monks, sat in the side hall and lectured in the hall, and sat down to drink tea with the abbot.
In accordance with the rules of Buddhism, the monks each sit on the futon, regardless of the old monk Shami, after all, he is taking a break from practicing Buddhism, and he has his own concentration and listens quietly.
On the upper seat, a coffee table, two futons, Fahai, the abbot, sit opposite each other.
The deacon of the temple is located at the lower head.
The abbot handed over a cup of vegetarian tea respectfully.
Fahai took it in fear: "There is Master Lao, don't be so polite, the little monk can't afford it." ”
Bow slightly to the Zen master.
Fahai was so humble, but let the hall lords and deacons below, including Zen Master Guangzhi, quickly move out of the futon, not daring to accept Fahai's bow.
After the propagation of Buddhism, several major sects were divided according to different doctrines.
Pure Land Buddhism, Tantra Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, Vinaya Buddhism.
In addition, there are also sects that specialize in a certain type of Buddhism, the Lotus sect and the Huayan sect.
They have different teachings and adapt to the practice of different groups of people.
The Pure Land Sect, Tantra, also known as Shingon Buddhism, is the oldest sect, and in the past, the Western Heaven Bliss was the ultimate goal, and the disciples were extremely strict, and they had great power and wisdom roots, and not everyone could cultivate.
Zen Buddhism and Vinaya Buddhism are relatively simple, with a low threshold, practicing the rules and precepts, participating in Zen enlightenment, comprehending philosophy, paying attention to clear mindfulness, seeing nature to become a Buddha, and not tabooing female guests, as long as men and women are sincere to the Buddha, they can practice.
In Buddhism, there is no such thing as the higher or the lower.
But in terms of cultivation, it is the difference between the abyss.
Buddhism practice, a total of eleven realms.
Eluciation, shravaka, karma, one-yana, bodhi, non-thought, emptiness, enlightenment, Hinayana and Mahayana, and crossing.
The elucidation, from the Mahayana into the Ranga Sutra, not only breaks the root of goodness, but also breaks goodness, great compassion, asexuality, the three realms, cuts off the six roots, and abides by the rules and precepts of Buddhism, which is the introduction to Buddha nature.
Hear, cut off the sound and lust, do not see, do not hear.
Yuanjue, cut off the mortal dust.
One multiplication, it is equivalent to building a foundation for the Dao Gate, opening the Purple Mansion Spirit Platform, and you can practice mana and master supernatural powers.
Bodhi, rooted in Buddha nature, has the beginning of mana.
When you reach the realm of thoughtlessness, you can be called a mage.
By this time, no matter how talented he is, he will already be fifty or sixty years old.
If you can't comprehend emptiness, then your path ends there.
Emptiness is to sit, nirvana, and cultivate relics, primordial spirits, and only then can you be reincarnated.
After reincarnation, continue to practice, realize enlightenment, which means enlightenment, and at a certain opportunity, awaken and know the memories of past lives.
Then practice slowly and accumulate mana.
Generally, it takes at least three lifetimes before you can enter Hinayana for the first time.
According to the common saying.
The power of a tripod is 1000 catties.
The power of a bull is 2,000 catties.
The power of a tiger is 5,000 catties.
The power of an elephant is 12,500 catties.
Ten elephants, for the power of a dragon, that is, 125,000 catties.
The Hinayana dragon elephant is the power of the dragon elephant, and it has reached such a level.
A minimum of three reincarnations is required.
Taoist cultivation is to fight for one's life against the sky, take pills, improve one's skills, prolong one's life, and be two or three hundred years old at every turn.
Buddhism, on the other hand, is in accordance with the will of heaven, nirvana, rebirth, and reincarnation.
The practice is extremely difficult.
Looking at the entire Dongtu Buddhist Gate, thousands of temples large and small, the total number of hundreds of thousands of monks, and the number of cultivators who have cultivated the Hinayana dragon elephant are all more than 100 people.
As for Mahayana?
That's just a legendary existence.
I don't know, I never left any way.
There is only one in hundreds of years, and after the Mahayana, it faces a heavenly tribulation, and soon it will soar.
The same is true for Daomen, when you reach the realm of Yuan Infant Transformation God, you will face a catastrophe.
But after ascending, you will face the constraints of the two worlds, and if you want to go down to earth, you can only choose reincarnation.
The difficulty of cultivation can be imagined.
Now the Fahai Mahayana Heavenly Dragon is already sacred in the world and the supreme in the world.
It is only one step away from ascending to the Western Heavenly Bliss.
When the opportunity came, he completely abandoned the mortal world and followed the Buddha.
And in front of this group of monks, only Guangzhi Zen Master is the second reincarnation, Yuanjue realm, in this life, we must study mana, fill the spiritual platform, and lay the deeper the foundation, the better.
Wait for the third reincarnation, and then cultivate the golden body of the Arhat.
Only by helping each other inside and outside can we enter the Hinayana dragon elephant.
As for the rest of the people, the two hall masters are thoughtless realms, and they haven't comprehended the emptiness, and they don't know if they can leave relics when they die, and whether they can be reincarnated.
What is the gap with Fahai?
In terms of age, Fahai can be said to be the ancestor of their ancestors.
How dare to bow to Fahai?
It is also Buddhism that pays attention to the equality of all beings, and does not mention the rank, so that everyone can sit down and speak.
If it is changed to a Taoist gate, the disciples and grandchildren will already kowtow.
Zen Master Guangzhi has been paying attention to Fahai's cultivation, but with his realm, how can he see through?
After thinking for a while, he bowed deeply and asked tremblingly: "Please forgive the old man for being rude, dare to ask the holy monk, how much has he cultivated now?"
Fahai smiled without saying a word, and a lotus flower appeared in his hand, as if the ancestor was holding flowers in Jialing Mountain to show the public.
At the beginning, the Buddha held flowers, petals and stamens, like substance, colorful, this is the supreme cultivation, has reached the opportunity of creation.
All the bhikshus and arhats bowed to him.
It's like showing strength.
Now the lotus flower of Fahai, although it is a mana illusion, it is not illusory at all, it is almost pure gold, like substance.
Only the power of the ninth layer of the Hinayana Dragon Elephant, the Nine Dragons, was used.
The shock on the faces of the monks was like seeing the Buddha.
He is also reincarnated twice, and he can be regarded as having some insight, Fahai's cultivation, this lotus, even if it is the six ancestors of Zen Buddhism, I am afraid it will not be able to reach it.
The shock on his face is beyond words.
Zen Master Guangzhi trembled, ignoring the chaos outside, and knelt down in front of all the disciples and grandchildren.
"I beg the holy monk to give me mystery, I am now deeply stuffed on the spiritual platform, and the Xuanyin jade pillow is like a stalk in the throat, always ......"
Fahai Lotus disappeared in a flash, and stopped his hand to signal: "The situation is not allowed now, and the matter of cultivation is still left aside for the time being." ”
Unexpectedly, Guangzhi was extremely stubborn, and in front of all the disciples and grandchildren, he burst into tears.
"Ask the master for guidance, just one sentence, just one sentence. ”
Looks like madness.
