Chapter 771: The Building of the Pit Buddha
For Famen Temple, Fang You didn't know much, he hadn't seen the Heten Relic Pagoda that Master Huijie said, and now, when he really saw this golden Heten Relic Pagoda, Fang You felt really ugly.
It looks really spectacular, a pair of hands in a joint shape, this is a common etiquette in Buddhism, but in it, Fang You didn't feel the slightest Buddha intention, and some were just distorted with money.
This is completely imposing some ideas of modernization on religion, and there is really a move that makes Fang You want to destroy it.
Seeing this relict pagoda that was not a pagoda at all, Wang Zijian on the side smiled, "I've heard a little about it before, but today I always see the first place in the list of the top ten ugliest buildings." ”
"Top 10 ugliest buildings, second senior brother, what's going on." Fang You couldn't help but turn his head and ask.
Wang Zijian smiled, "You know, your senior brother and I are in Tielijian, and we are also paying attention to some situations in China, on a forum, we learned the list of the top ten ugly buildings in China, this activity is taken by a website in China, and all netizens in China vote to select the top ten ugliest buildings, and the new halten relics pagoda in Famen Temple is rated as the top ten ugliest buildings. ”
"The reason for being on the list is also very appropriate, the newly built Buddha bone relics pagoda in Famen Temple is actually ugly, if the Buddha knew that his fingers were hidden in such a nondescript tower, he would definitely want his bones back."
Hearing what Wang Zijian said, Fang You and Ye Yuqing couldn't help but smile, it was really appropriate, such a building that said that the tower was not a tower and that the building was not a building really insulted the Buddha's holy name.
Looking at the ugliest relics pagoda again, Fang You couldn't help but sigh and said: "My son had an accident with the name of Lao Tzu, this is called a pit father, and the real body relics of the Buddha are stored in such a relic, I call it really a pit Buddha." ”
The Buddhist disciple who was in charge of driving the tour bus in front looked at Fang You, and said helplessly: "Donor, everything in the scenic spot is not decided by Famen Temple, the buildings here are built under the guidance of the government and some construction teams. ”
Listening to this Buddhist disciple's words, Fang You smiled and nodded, "Little master, don't worry, I will keep it secret." ”
After walking on Foguang Avenue for a while, the Buddhist disciple turned to the east side of Foguang Avenue, Famen Ancient Temple, when there was still a long distance from the temple gate, Fang You and others saw a pagoda about fifty meters high, layer after layer, continuous, this is the real tower in Chinese civilization, and the nondescript Heten Relic Pagoda outside, there is a gap between heaven and earth.
Entering the monastery, unlike the grandeur outside, it is full of antique fragrance, and there is a kind of Buddha meaning in it, and from time to time you can see monks reading scriptures or sweeping the fallen leaves on the ground.
In a Buddhist hall, Fang You and the three of them met Master Huijie, as well as other Buddhist masters, including the host of Famen Temple, and when they saw Fang You coming, many Buddhist masters and disciples stood up, shouted a Buddha name to Fang You with respect, and bowed slightly.
Fang You gave a salute with a calm demeanor, this mental state made many Buddhist masters who had never seen Fang You deeply amazed, and after talking with Fang You, everyone couldn't help but admire, although Fang Xiaoyou was young, his state of mind cultivation was extraordinary.
After a few words of conversation, Fang You smiled, and then said, "Master Huijie, I remember that you said before in Hui'an Temple that you would store this Buddha's true body relic in the namaste stupa outside with the other, right?" ”
Master Huijie looked at Fang You's smiling appearance, but he had a premonition that something was about to happen, he nodded, "Fang Xiaoyou, that's true, there is another Buddha finger bone relic enshrined in the Heten Relic Pagoda, and this one naturally has to exist with it." ”
"I don't agree." Fang You said calmly, with incomparable firmness in his calmness.
Master Huijie's face changed slightly, as did many other Buddhist masters, although they had only talked to Fang You for a while, they knew that the young man in front of him was extremely determined, and once he made a decision, it must have been after careful consideration.
"Fang Xiaoyou, why are you?" Master Huijie couldn't help but ask with a puzzled face.
Fang You smiled slightly and pointed outside, "Master Huijie, I don't agree with the reason why the Buddha's true body relics are stored in the Heten Relic Pagoda, I think you should know. ”
"The Halten Relic Pagoda, from the inside to the outside is full of interests and money, although its structure is the Buddhist gesture of Heshi, but there is no Buddha will, no peace, some are just cold and magnificent, the relics pagoda, this building is like a tower, nondescript, the Buddha's true body relics are stored in it, this is tantamount to an insult to the Buddha and other Buddhas, this, I believe that the master of Huijie and the masters will not feel it." In the end, Fang You said lightly, word by word, since he had made a decision, how could he hesitate.
Ignoring the expressions on the faces of Master Huijie and the others, Fang You continued: "I said, I want to let this relic get a good destination, this Heten Relic Pagoda is not a qualified destination, it can be said that it is not a stream, I will never agree." ”
After listening to Fang You's categorical words, Master Huijie and the others couldn't help but have a look of emotion on their faces, they really didn't expect that Fang You, who was not even a Buddhist disciple, would care more about the fate of the Buddha's relics than them.
Even if he is the discoverer of the relics, he should not care so much, Master Huijie nodded secretly, Fang You This is really for the sake of the Buddha's relics, and he has a relationship with the Buddha, and it is really true.
Master Huijie and the other Buddhist masters looked at each other, and their faces showed helplessness, "Fang Xiaoyou, although we are religious, in some aspects, we are also subject to the jurisdiction of some government departments, such as the storage location of the Buddha's relics, as well as some scenic spots outside the Famen Temple. ”
Fang You shook his head, "I already know this, no matter what, this Buddha's true body relic must not be stored in the Heten Relic Pagoda, this is my bottom line, if you can't make a decision, then let the people in charge of this part of the government come and talk to me." ”
"Otherwise, today, I will take back the Buddha's true body relics, tomorrow's worship ceremony will not be opened, I believe that the Buddha does not want his own bones, stay in such an ugly building, although Buddhism pays attention to purity and inaction, but, related to the Buddha's relics storage place, how can it be easily compromised, some monks in the temple, in order to protect the Buddha's true body relics, did not hesitate to risk killing their heads, made imitations, in order to protect the real body relics, the protection of the Buddha's true body relics, to the end, It's not for the sake of being stored in such a pit building. As he spoke, Fang You's tone couldn't help but become a little heavier.
Fang You's words made the faces of all Buddhist masters gloomy, but they were convinced, "Fang Xiaoyou's words woke up the people in their dreams, Lao Qu and the others became disciples of the Buddha in vain, Lao Qu ordered someone to invite people from the government over, and we will fully support Fang Xiaoyou's actions." ”
Due to the imminent ceremony of the Buddha's relics, the heads of some government departments also came to the place of Famen Temple, and when they learned that Fang You did not agree to put the Buddha's relics in the Namaste Relic Pagoda, but placed them in an ancient pagoda in the Famen Ancient Temple, several responsible persons sternly refused, and explained that the place in the Namaste Relic Pagoda was for better protection of cultural relics, and was approved by the state and the Buddhist Association.
Fang You smiled slightly, not wanting to talk nonsense about whether the relics stupa had the Buddha's intentions with them, and directly explained that if he did not agree to his request, he would revoke the previous gift today and take the Buddha's true body relics back to Wuyang, in the end, he smiled and said to them: "I believe you also know my economic strength, it is easy to build a temple in Wuyang, and it is easier to build a few towers, it is better to let the Buddha's real body relics stay in such a nondescript building." ”
Some things must be insisted on, Fang You once wanted to let this Buddha relics find a good home, he must do it, even if he loses his interests for this, even if he offends some people for this, he will not hesitate to do it, involving financial interests, he can choose to give in, but it is related to the location of the relics, as well as the difference in concepts, he will never back down.
Master Huijie said with a smile at this time: "Fang Xiaoyou had an agreement with our Buddhist Association before, that is, when he is not satisfied with the Buddha's relics being used by us for benefits, or other things that he feels dissatisfied with, he has the right to choose to take back the relics. "Since I fully support it, why hesitate to say it.
"Master Huijie, your opinion is the same." Several people in charge said angrily.
Master Huijie and all the Chinese Buddhist masters nodded with a smile on their faces, "As the owner of the relics, Fang Xiaoyou naturally has the right to choose the location where the relics are stored, and his opinion is naturally our opinion." ”
"Okay, it's the other way around, you wait, I'll report to the competent department immediately, you wait to be criticized." Several people in charge were furious and threw up their sleeves and left.
Fang You shook his head and smiled, his face was full of disapproval, he put his hands together and bowed to Master Huijie and the others, "Master Huijie, thank you for your support." ”
"Fang Xiaoyou, don't be polite, now Lao Wei and the others are still ashamed of their previous selfish behavior, it was you who gave us a chance to atone for our sins to the Buddha." Master Huijie and other Buddhist masters stood up together to return the salute.
