Chapter 785: Buddha Things
Chen Guan didn't believe in the theory of the six realms of reincarnation in his heart. However, enshrined the spirit tablets of the grandparents in the underground palace of the Yuantong Hall, receiving the protection of Buddhism and offering incense, it is the filial piety of future generations to the grandparents who have a rough fate, and it is also a good prayer. It's just that Chen Guan is a cadre, and because of his identity, he won't express his position, so he can only let Shi Yanming go to his mother Zheng Yulian to discuss.
What Chen Guan didn't expect was that Shi Yanming promised the pilgrim from Hong Kong to enshrine his parents' spiritual seat in the underground palace of the Yuantong Palace, which was equivalent to opening an opening, and after the tour group from Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia learned the news, some tourists were moved by the wind and asked the Dayun Temple to enshrine the ancestors' spiritual tablets in the underground palace of the Yuantong Palace.
300,000 yuan is a huge amount of money for ordinary Chinese people at this time, but for those Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia who believe in Buddhism, it is all small money, nothing more!
Shi Yanming, the host of Dayun Temple, let go because he got Chen Guan's permission, and as a result, on this afternoon alone, he accepted the request of dozens of Chinese businessmen and tourists to worship the ancestors' spirit tablets in the underground palace of Yuantong Palace. Although this is just a request, it is an intention, but Buddhism does not speak, the promise must be fulfilled, these Chinese businessmen can not pay all the money for the time being, they also need to go back to prepare the ancestors spirit card, and then to do things, arrange the ancestor spirit card worship ceremony.
The rebuilt Dayun Temple suddenly became a famous temple where Guanyin showed the Bible, had a great reputation, and was prosperous with incense!
After Shi Yanming left, Cui Ying came down from Luoyan Peak, tired, and knew that Chen Guan was likely to be in the organizing committee office of Dayun Temple, so he came to find Chen Guan.
I don't know why, during this time, Cui Ying didn't go to Zhouli Township to supervise the water supply and drainage project, and she had less contact with Chen Guan.
Seeing that Cui Ying had found here, Chen Guan hurriedly led her to his and Hu Ming's office to sit down, made a cup of hot tea, and then asked her if she had eaten at noon?
There are too many people today, and there are many big leaders and VIPs who come, and Chen Guan doesn't care about greeting his friends at all.
Cui Ying took a sip of tea and replied that after eating two steamed buns and a tea egg, she was not hungry, but she was a little thirsty, and she didn't want to drink cold mineral water, and she was tired, so she came to see Chen Guan and find a place to rest.
Chen Guan felt sorry for Cui Ying and persuaded her to stop looking, go down the mountain early, and if she didn't go back to the county seat or Shuiquan today, she would go to his house to rest and rest. If you want to play, you will come back to Dayun Temple tomorrow.
Cui Ying said that it was fine, and she wanted to go to Dayun Temple to watch the ceremony for a while. Today, Guanyin Bodhisattva has appeared, and she wants to burn incense in Dayun Temple again.
Chen Guan couldn't imagine that Cui Ying still wanted to burn incense, so he persuaded him not to make trouble, in case it was not good if he was recognized by others.
Cui Ying said that there is nothing bad, so many people burn incense, who can recognize her? Besides, today is the day of the opening of the Great Cloud Temple and the Falling Goose Guanyin, the Bodhisattva of Guanyin has appeared, so many virtuous monks are chanting and worshiping the Buddha, when will you burn incense at this time?
The two of them were talking, Hu Ming came back from outside, and just heard Cui Ying say that he thought of burning incense in Dayun Temple, and opened his mouth and said: "There are too many people in Dayun Temple, and those pilgrims are burning incense and worshiping Buddha, and watching the monks do things." It's cheap for those merchants who sell incense, but it's a fortune! ”
As soon as Cui Ying heard this, she hurriedly finished the tea, got up and left, Chen Guan couldn't stop shouting at her!
Hu Ming shook his head and sighed: "It's over, we worked hard to build a big cloud temple and Luoyan Guanyin, which was originally built into a leading tourist attraction, but in the end it became a place for those who believe in Buddhism to burn incense and worship!" A good Luoyan Peak has become Foshan! I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing! ”
Chen Guan said that it must be a good thing, it is better for people to have a little religious belief and a little spiritual sustenance than no faith at all!
Hu Ming said that Chen Guan was finished, completely finished, and forgot Confucius's "blame the gods for everything", the atheism and materialism of Marxism-Leninism, and the deception of religion.
Chen Guan scoffed at Hu Ming's statement, saying that Hu Ming's statement was too extreme. Religion is indeed deceptive, but it also has a good side to guide people, and it also relieves people's suffering. The presidents of the United States believe in Christianity, and they do not see anyone paying attention to feudal superstition. Fortunately, they believe in Christianity and fear God, otherwise, if a madman like Hitler comes to power, with the force of the United States, I don't know how many people in this world will be unlucky!
Both of them are busy, and they can't delay their business by laughing. No, after a while, Deputy Secretary Li Lide came over and said that he was not at ease, and he had to go to Dayun Temple to take a look, there were too many people there, so don't have a safety accident.
Chen Guan and Hu Ming had no choice but to follow Deputy Secretary Li Lide out.
Chen Guan opened the road in front, Hu Ming was behind, and Deputy Secretary Li Lide was in the middle, and a group of three people came out of the small courtyard of the West Cross Courtyard where the Organizing Committee Office was located, bypassed several cross courtyards, and entered the main scenic spot of Dayun Temple.
In the ears is the loud and long sound of the Buddha, the main hall of the Dayun Temple, the Daxiong Treasure Hall, is still doing things.
At this time, the Dayun Temple was indeed overcrowded.
At the gate of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, Chen Guan, Deputy Secretary Li Lide, and Hu Ming stopped to watch, only to see the fragrance in the courtyard, those pilgrims lit a handful of incense, their faces were solemn, and they bowed to the east for a while, to the west for a while, to the south for a while, and to the north for a while, all of them were very pious.
And in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, the monks who are doing Buddhist things are ringing the bell chime, wooden fish, and chanting Sanskrit, which is also pious.
In the courtyard outside the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Chen Guan discovered a new thing, that is, someone specially instructed the pilgrims to burn incense like this. Looking at it again, these people who instructed the pilgrims to burn incense were all locals of Mingshui.
Chen Guan muttered a few words to Hu Ming, and Hu Ming walked over and asked a person who instructed others to burn incense, and asked how much money he charged for burning incense with a group of guests.
The man sued Hu Ming and said that he would receive 20 yuan. On the day when the Great Cloud Temple and the Luoyan Guanyin are consecrated like today, there are many people who burn incense, and at least they can earn three or four hundred yuan.
After Hu Ming asked, he came over and said to Chen Guan that he had found a way to make a fortune without investment, and when he retired, he would come to Dayun Temple to instruct others how to burn incense, and it was estimated that he could withstand a year's salary for a month.
Deputy Secretary Li Lide and Chen Guan were silent.
When I turned to Guanyin Pavilion, I happened to meet Cui Ying burning incense.
Chen Guansheng was afraid that Deputy Secretary Li Lide would see Cui Ying burning incense and criticizing her, so he hurriedly took Secretary Li away, but he didn't expect Deputy Secretary Li Lide's sharp eyes to see Cui Ying who was burning incense, his brows furrowed, his face was a little unsightly, and he turned around and asked Hu Ming and Chen Guan to call Cui Ying over.
Chen Guan "chuckled" in his heart, knowing that it was going to be bad.
When Cui Ying followed Hu Ming to Deputy Secretary Li Lide, Deputy Secretary Li Lide asked, "Director Cui, what wish did you make by burning incense?" ”
Cui Ying said that she had never burned incense, and today she watched so many people burn incense, thinking that her parents had passed away for many years, and she burned incense for her parents to bless them with peace in the heavens.
With this, Deputy Secretary Li Lide's temper was gone, and he only said "pay attention to the impact" and turned to leave.
After looking at the Dayun Temple and feeling that the safety precautions were still in place, Deputy Secretary Li Lide was relieved and went back to the temporary office of the organizing committee.
Chen Guan did not go back with Deputy Secretary Li Lide, saying that he would go up and down Yanfeng and take a look.
The situation on Luoyan Peak and Dayun Temple is almost the same, there are many people who take pictures and burn incense. Chen watched for a while, and when he saw that there was no problem, he went down to Luoyan Peak and returned to Dayun Temple to find Cui Ying.
Cui Ying didn't know what was going on, and the momentum of burning incense was very strong. Deputy Secretary Li Lide almost criticized her just now, but I didn't expect her to still be the same, still burning incense in Dayun Temple, and very religious, after burning incense, she had to go to the Buddha to kneel and worship, and secretly pray.
When Chen Guan found Cui Ying, Cui Ying had just knelt down in front of the Guanyin statue in the Guanyin Pavilion and was stuffing money into the merit incense.
Seeing that Cui Ying stuffed a big ticket of 100 yuan, Chen Guan was anxious, pulled Cui Ying out of the Guanyin Pavilion, and blamed her for being too expensive, how much to give a little is a meaning, how can you throw hundreds of money?
Cui Ying looked happy and replied that today was the day when Luoyan Guanyin and Dayun Temple were consecrated, and she couldn't help with anything else, so she should give some incense money. Besides, she lives alone, without any burden, and spending this money is nothing.
Chen Guan wanted to say more, but Cui Ying stopped him, saying that he couldn't talk nonsense before the Buddha again, he had to be pious, and he was careful of the Bodhisattva's blame.
Chen Guan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and felt that Cui Ying in front of him still had the pungent and capable female secretary of Tonghua Town, and she was purely a kind-hearted little woman.
Cui Ying then told Chen Guan that she had already made a wish in front of the Buddha, and as long as the wish came true, she would come back to make a wish. When the time comes, I have to let Chen Guan accompany her!
Chen Guan didn't dare to say anything, he vaguely realized what kind of wish Cui Ying had made, either praying for Chen Guan to marry her, or praying for Guanyin Bodhisattva to send a child. In addition to these two, it is estimated that Cui Ying will not make any other wishes.
At this moment, Cui Ying let out a surprised "um".
Chen Guan followed Cui Ying's gaze and looked back, only to find that his mother Zheng Yulian and several village aunts were also burning incense.
Cui Yingmei's eyes turned, and she whispered to Chen Guan: "Guess what your mother will make?" ”
Is this still a guess? Zheng Yulian will definitely make a wish in front of the Buddha, so that the Bodhisattva will bless his son with a safe life, bless his son with marriage as soon as possible, and bless Yutai Mingyue with giving her a white fat grandson as soon as possible.
People of the upper age are like that, no different!
Chen Guan hadn't gone to greet his mother yet, and Cui Ying said "um" again, it turned out that Wang Meng accompanied Bai Shouyong and several experts from the American stock exchange to visit Dayun Temple.
The beautiful Wang Meng also carried the incense bought outside the Dayun Temple, and in front of the Guanyin Pavilion, under the attention of Bai Shouyong's wife Avril and those American experts, he walked to the big incense burner, lit the incense in his hand, and worshiped it decently.
Chen Guan stopped talking, left Cui Ying, turned around and left.
