Chapter 134: If the guts are so fat, the people are even fatter
Time flew by, and soon the day of the conference was coming.
Today, the White Horse Temple is closed, which is to welcome the monks of all the temples.
The venue of the conference was in the open space in front of the main hall of the White Horse Temple, and it was now filled with hundreds of monks.
The monks are all dressed in their monastic robes, but they all look the same, bright yellow, and some sky blue.
The requirements for monks' robes in the temple are very strict, and monks who wear bright yellow monk's clothes must have a status in their own temples.
And the monks in the sky blue monk's clothes are generally the followers or apprentices of these monks in bright yellow monks' clothes.
Just like Guangliang and Biqing, the two of them have always been dressed like this.
The presiding officer of the White Horse Temple has not yet appeared, and Guangliang and Biqing are whispering in the small corner.
"Master Jian Temple, you said that Uncle Ji has not appeared in the past two days, is there any danger?"
For Li Xiuyuan, the uncle, Biqing has also been unwelcome from the beginning, to the present sincere concern.
Although Guangliang looked unconcerned, he was still worried in his heart.
"I don't think it's a big problem, your Daoji Uncle shouldn't have a problem, he has great powers, and you don't know it. ”
"Then are we really going to do this later?" Biqing looked at the so many monks around him, still a little cowardly.
"What your uncle explained, we naturally have to do it for him, otherwise what if he goes back to complain. ”
This is just Guangliang's hard talk, he is worried that if he and Biqing don't do things well, it will ruin Li Xiuyuan's plan.
Typical knife mouth, tofu heart.
Biqing nodded, stopped talking, and then looked intently at the main hall in front of him.
Soon, an old monk walked out of the main hall and stood on a high platform.
He had a kind face, his hair and beard were gray, and his face was wrinkled.
It seems that he has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven.
This is the current presiding officer of the White Horse Temple, Xingzheng Zen Master, who has been the presiding officer for more than 50 years.
"Amitabha, welcome to all of you. Zen Master Xingzheng clasped his hands together and smiled slightly.
A neat voice sounded in the clearing, "Amitabha, the little monk has seen the Xingzheng Zen Master." ”
Xingzheng Zen Master smiled lightly, "You have come from afar to participate in today's scripture discussion conference, thank you for not disliking, let the old man come to the scriptures, and the old man will talk about this first scripture today." ”
"Amitabha. "It's a neat voice again.
With the White Horse Temple presiding Zen Master Xingzheng taking the stage and speaking the opening remarks, the grand discussion conference officially began!
Sprinkle flower petals, sprinkle holy water, and chant the scriptures......
After a set of tosses, it was already noon.
After the scene quieted down, Zen Master Xingzheng began to explain.
"The poor monk recites the Ruyi Sutra day and night, and he has some feelings in his heart. In particular, the saying that one is many, and many is one. Most people in the world are deceived by the numbers in it, but they don't know that the one and many here represent more than just numbers. Rather, it is one and ten thousand laws, and all laws are one, and ten thousand laws are one, and ten thousand laws are returned to heaven and earth. Between heaven and earth, my heart is the only one, and all the laws of heaven and earth are evolved from the heart, and when the heart arrives, all the laws are born ......"
The other monks all listened to the lecture with an open mind, of course, I don't know if they can understand the lectures of the Xingzheng Zen master.
If Li Xiuyuan was here, he would definitely say: Anyway, we don't know, and we don't dare to ask.
For Guangliang and Biqing, two monks who usually don't like to chant scriptures, listening to them for a long time is equivalent to playing the piano to the cow.
The two of them have been holding back without moving or talking, which is a little uncomfortable.
Finally, I don't know how long Master Xingzheng spoke, he stopped.
"The above is Lao Gao's understanding of the Ruyi Sutra, if there are other deficiencies, please don't mind. Of course, if you don't understand something, you can also let the old man explain. Zen Master Xingzheng looked humbly seeking advice, but his face was still a little proud.
"The abbot is too modest. For a while, the monks began to pat themselves on the back.
However, it was originally a sutra conference, so it was naturally impossible for the Zen master to speak on it all the time.
After the Xingzheng Zen Master finished speaking, the others were also a little nervous.
This was a great opportunity for their monastery to make a name for themselves, and they naturally couldn't let it go.
Then, one by one, monks wearing bright yellow monk robes came to the stage and talked about the Buddhism they had comprehended.
However, there was soon a refutation, and a large group of abbots of the monastery began a war of words......
Guangliang and Biqing glanced at each other, and saw two words in each other's eyes, 'action'!
"Xingzheng Zen Master, the little monk Guangliang, there is something unclear, and I hope the master can solve the doubts. Guangliang squinted his eyes and showed an extremely official smile.
For this kind of monk who wants to ask questions, Zen Master Xingzheng, as the host of this sutra conference, will naturally be willing to answer them.
"Guangliang, it's okay for you to say. "Zen Master Xingzheng naturally believes in himself and will not be stumped by a young monk.
Guangliang clasped his hands together, coughed lightly, and slowly spoke.
"The little monk has a slightly different view on the one in the Ruyi Sutra, and the many are one. ”
As soon as these words came out, the audience was shocked.
The people who appeared just now were all people who went to debate the Ming Huang monk's robe, and this was the first one to ask the abbot.
Obviously, when it comes out like this, it's not really to ask questions, it's to smash the field.
Eh, which temple monk is this, the courage is so fat, and the person is even fatter.
"Amitabha, the Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, but where is the suffering of all living beings? The Lingyin Temple, where the little monk is located, is very remote, and there are only a handful of people who go up the mountain every year. The little monk always felt that he was having a hard time, but later Biqing and his junior brother appeared and went up and down the mountain with them, and the little monk was satisfied again. All laws come from the heart, everything comes from the heart, and everything comes from the heart. There is only one mind, but the mind can evolve into infinite troubles. Therefore, the Buddha said that one is many. And more is one, the poor monk believes that only by abandoning those troubles and turning thousands of troubles into a simple heart can we truly be liberated and gain great freedom!"
Quiet, the audience was silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded, silent, and even shocked!
I didn't expect this chubby monk to say such a big truth.
Only Guangliang spoke, and his forehead was full of sweat.
Why is there no sound around?
Could it be that there is something wrong with the words handed over to him by his junior brother?
The expressions on everyone's faces are so strange, the situation is not good now, if it really can't work, you can only run away.
Senior brother, it's not that you don't cover you when you are a senior brother, it's really your words that make people speechless.
As everyone knows, it's not that they don't speak, but they just have nothing to say.
Because when they savored it, they realized that what Guangliang said was simply right!
Guangliang hesitated, should he throw this pot to Li Xiuyuan?
