Chapter 62: The Village Immortal Family

Bai Lian returned to her mother's house, piled a stack of books in her bedroom, washed her hands, and incense the portrait of Guanyin Bodhisattva. She sat cross-legged in front of the statue of the Bodhisattva www.biquge.info closed her eyes and thought about what had happened from the entrance to the village.

"Guanyin Bodhisattva, is the mother-in-law at the entrance of the village your incarnation? Did you point out my White Lotus? Did you tell me to calm down and learn something? Bai Lian thought to herself, "Yes, my knowledge is too little. I wanted to follow the Pure Land method, I wanted to make it simpler. You must know that the Pure Land Method is most suitable for practicing alone, but I still have to do my best to heal diseases and save people, isn't it self-knowledgeable! If you don't want to do porcelain work, you really want to ask for hardship! Indeed, it is not easy for a person who lacks knowledge of Buddhism to save himself! ”

Bai Lian stood up, opened more than a dozen Buddhist books and put them on the box, and flipped over one after another, each of which was densely packed, and some were still in traditional characters. Thinking of the abbot of the temple asking her to read the scriptures and chant mantras, what people said is not unreasonable. Ever since she graduated from high school and was admitted to college and had no money to go to college and stayed at home, Bai Lian didn't want to read books anymore and developed a kind of resistance and aversion to books. Occasionally read Tang poems and Song lyrics to relieve boredom. Now I have to pick up books again in order to study Buddhism, which is very annoying!

The book in her hand was so heavy that it made Bai Lian restless. If you simply recite Amitabha Buddha and recite it honestly, maybe one day you will be reborn in the Elysian World, but you can't transform others with your own strength. If you don't study these Buddhist scriptures carefully and memorize these Buddhist mantras wholeheartedly, you will be evading it, and your ideals will come to naught.

Read! Sink your heart and read it word by word!

So Bai Lian recited the "Heart Sutra", "Amitabha Sutra", "Six Ancestors Altar Sutra", "Lengyan Sutra", etc., each of which recited a few paragraphs, devoured alive, read without seeking to understand, read in a daze, from noon to nine o'clock in the evening, lunch and dinner were not eaten, and the thought was dizzy.

Bailian's parents took turns to deliver rice, took turns to deliver hot rice, and took turns to scream and whisper, but to no avail. The old couple was worried, sighing, what should I do? Is it evil? But I didn't dare to disturb, I didn't dare to shout, I didn't dare to teach a lesson, my daughter was bitter enough.

But after all, people are iron and rice are steel, how can you go without eating for a day, Dad can't bear to let his daughter starve anymore! He pushed the door open, but he was astonished! I saw that Bai Lian had fainted on the ground.

"My daughter!" White Lotus's parents woke up Bai Lian sadly.

"Go to sleep, I don't want to eat, let me be alone." Bai Lian was lying in the quilt and said weakly.

"You don't have a fever, do you?" The mother touched her daughter's forehead with her hand, "Don't burn, it's always on fire, drink more water, and it will be fine tomorrow." ”

The father poured his daughter a glass of boiling water.

At midnight, White Lotus didn't seem to be asleep. Her heart was clear. She wondered how she could finish reading those books so quickly, and when she would be able to memorize dozens of spells, even if only a dozen. From the temple to the present, how many times has she recited, but she still only remembers the "Six-Character Great Ming Mantra" and "Great Compassion Mantra". Think about how good my memory was when I used to study, what Tang poems and Song words and what classical Chinese, at most ten times I can completely memorize them, but these spells are just a few words, a dozen words, dozens of words, why can't I remember them? Is it the spell itself that is difficult to remember, or is it that you are always absent-minded or have lost your memory?

White Lotus entered the dream in a daze.

In the dream, Bai Lian saw a circle of people on the street, Bai Lian squeezed in, and saw a blind old man singing and begging, he sang a duo stage for people, and sang a section of erhu and sang a section, singing while playing. Suddenly, there was a problem with the strings, and they couldn't be pulled, so the blind man began to tune the strings. I didn't think about it, and the strings suddenly relaxed, pulled, and didn't pull out the sound. Tune and tune again, it's tight, pull it, haven't pulled it back and forth a few times, "pop", the string breaks.

"What a blind man! The strings are too loose or too tight! I don't even know this, and I came out to eat mixed rice! A second-rate young man scoffed. The way of employing people is more important than one relaxation, and the things of the world are not like this! ”

A second-rate word. A second-rate son, he actually understands the way of the world?

Bai Lian was woken up by the ridicule of the second-rate son, but the voice seemed to still echo in the dark room.

Bai Lian thought that he had to learn Buddhism in an orderly manner, just like he did when he was in school. You must set your homework for yourself, follow the rules every day, and form good habits.

Be sure to memorize the "Six-Character Daming Mantra" and "Great Compassion Mantra", "White-clothed Master Mantra", "Six Paths Vajra Mantra", "Hearing Liberation Mantra" and so on, as well as some mantras for treating minor diseases.

Early the next morning, Bai Lian prepared a large bowl of cool water in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she wanted to infuse the "Great Compassion Mantra" technique of reciting the Tao every day into the water to become Great Compassion Water.

In the morning, sure enough, dozens of people came to Bai Lian's house again and kowtowed to Bai Lian. White Lotus led them into her bedroom and made them all kneel in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, burn incense and kowtow.

Together with them, Bai Lian knelt in front of the statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva and led the singing of "Great Compassion Mantra".

The people who came after knelt down in turn, from the bedroom door to the courtyard.

Above the village, the sound of the "Great Compassion Mantra" sounded.

After reciting it nine times, Bai Lian motioned for people to get up and give a sip of great compassion water to people with headaches and brain fever, and everyone suddenly felt refreshed.

Eight white doves hovered like notes in the Buddha's voice.

In the countryside, such a large-scale Buddha promotion scene can also be said to be huge.

Soon, the name of the white lotus spread again. The whole township knew that a young woman was a living immortal.

"What nine-year-old red, what drunken red, can't compare to the living Bodhisattva White Lotus! That's the real immortal family! It's the real Guanyin Bodhisattva! People rushed to tell each other.
