The dust before the falling mirror lake is forgotten, and the past is empty when you enter the Buddha Gate2
Soon Master Silence discovered that Chenyin was not stupid at all, on the contrary, she was also very sensitive, she understood many things at a glance, and she also hid a lot of thoughts in her heart.
One day, Shanhua said: "All appearances are false, if you see all the appearances that are not the appearances, you will see them as they are." ”
Then Chenyin said: "There is no self, no one, no sentient beings, only one mind." ”
Silence nodded approvingly: "Your mind is ingenious, and it is also appropriate to realize the Buddha with one heart." ”
Tatsune smiled and continued to clean the courtyard.
Silence called her: "How many times have I told you, you don't have to do these sweeping work." ”
Chen Yin shook his head: "Over the years, thanks to Master's intake, I will not be adrift. Cleaning the courtyard is a disciple's job, so Master will repay you for your kindness. ”
Lonely had no choice but to go with her: "Buddhism emphasizes the equality of all sentient beings and the universality of all sentient beings, and my rescue of you is also a good and self-beneficial act." ”
"All beings are equal?" Chenyin was stunned.
A few words drifted through her mind: "I remember you once said that human cultivation and spirit beasts should be equal. I thought so, too...... Aren't you people cultivating the 'equality of all beings' in Buddhism? Naturally, there is some truth to it. ”
Chenyin shook his head, and when he remembered it carefully, he couldn't remember anything.
Seeing her confused expression, she was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Chenyin pursed his lips: "I just seem to remember a past event, but I don't remember it at the moment." Her expression was a little distressed, with a hint of melancholy and annoyance.
Silence nodded: "Okay, you don't have to be obsessed with this, just go with the flow and get the right result." ”
"The disciple has been taught." Chenyin responded in a regular manner.
Silence was relieved. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew off the beads in his hand. He was about to lean over to pick it up, but he coughed several times in a row, and almost didn't stand firm.
Chen Yin hurriedly ran over, picked up the string of Buddhist beads, and asked with a concerned face, "Master, are you unwell?" ”
Silence glanced at the palm of the hand that covered his mouth, and saw that the palm of the hand was full of blood stains coughed up. He quietly pinned his hand behind him and said to Chenyin, "It's okay, it's just that I'm choking on the wind." ”
Chen Yin felt strange: "This is exactly the weather in April, blowing the cold willow wind, why is Master choked by the wind?" ”
Silence glanced at Chenyin a few times and asked, "Have you finished copying the scriptures that you were asked to copy last time?" ”
Chen Yin patted his head: "I forgot about this." Master, don't blame, I'm going to copy it. ”
When she was late, she picked a scripture book and sat by the green lantern to copy it. The sky was getting darker and darker, and she gradually felt sleepy, so she unconsciously put down her pen and fell asleep on the desk.
There was a very strange scene in the dream.
A young man took out a booklet and handed it to her: "This is a Buddhist scripture that I have copied in recent years, and I invite my seniors to appreciate it." ”
She wanted to ask, "Who are you?" Do you recognize me? But what he said was, "Do you still like this?" ”
The young man smiled: "Almost everyone who practices Zen a lot will prepare a book to copy Buddhist scriptures. It may help to be pious and upright. ”
She nodded uncontrollably again, and said, "That makes sense." In the future, if I am impetuous, I will try to transcribe a Buddhist scripture. It must be more effective than those calming pills. ”
The young man said, "If the seniors don't dislike it, how about accepting this Buddhist scripture that I copied?" May it protect the predecessors to ascend the immortal path of immortality early. ”
The dream came to an abrupt end, and Chenyin woke up and knocked down an oil lamp beside him.
Chenyin bent down, collected the candles scattered on the ground, and thought, "It's really a day and a night." I was still copying Buddhist scriptures when I dreamed that someone gave me a hand-recorded Buddhist scripture. It can be seen that all I am thinking about is how to get something for nothing, and I am really ashamed of the Buddha. ”
She couldn't remember the conversation in the dream anymore, and looked at the half-copied scripture on the case, and only vaguely remembered a few words - "pious authenticity", "elixir", "immortality" and "immortal road".
Fearing that she had forgotten about it, she wrote them down on a piece of paper and sandwiched them between the scriptures. I felt that these things were far away, and I didn't know why I dreamed about them.
A few days later, Shanhua happened to take the book away. As I flipped through it, I saw a piece of paper fall out of the page. Silence picked up the piece of paper and looked at it, and exclaimed: "Pill, immortality, immortal road...... Isn't this Chenyin's handwriting, how could she know this? ”
So Silence immediately went to Chenyin, took out the piece of paper, and asked, "Did you write these down?" ”
Chenyin nodded and admitted: "A few days ago, I heard these words in a dream, and I felt very strange in my heart. I was worried that I had forgotten it, so I started to write it down. ”
"I see." Silence looked at the piece of paper for a while, looked at Chenyin for a while, and finally sighed, "Chenyin, you come with me." ”
Chenyin didn't know why, so he obediently and skillfully followed.
Silence came to the inner room, took out a book from behind the simple bed tent, and handed it to Chenyin: "You can take a look first." ”
"What kind of book is this, and why is it so shabby?" Chen Yin curiously opened the title page, and couldn't help but read out loud, "The way to ascend to immortals, thousands of them." The indispensable is the only spiritual root. Those who are overwhelmed are also ...... by Taoism"
The more she watched, the more fascinated she became, and she watched it for three days and three nights. The book depicts a different kind of world, where all people can study the immortal method, and if they are successful in cultivation, they can also shape immortal bones and soar into immortals.
For some reason, Tatsune has an inexplicable fascination for that world.
Silence looked at her expression, and sighed faintly: "Chenyin, you said that you dreamed of the immortal path of immortality, and I think it was some immortal fate in your life. As a teacher, I can't stop you, I can't stop you......"
Chen Yin was stunned when he heard this: "Master, what do you mean by this?" ”
"I stumbled upon this book many years ago. Before that, I didn't know that there was a world of immortal cultivation in this world. Now it seems that you actually have some fate to cultivate immortals and enter the Dao. "Everyone in the world is good for immortals, you should follow the instructions in the book and find your own immortal path." ”
No one knows the anguish in Silence's heart. He had hoped that Chenyin would be able to inherit the mantle, but he never expected that she would have a long way to go. But he didn't want to hide it from her - he had been apprenticed to Chenyin for many years, and he hoped that her future would be bright.
Chenyin thought back and forth what Silence said a few times, and raised his eyes: "Master is trying to drive me away?" ”
"How did I mean that? I hope you will find the immortal path of your dreams, don't stay in this square inch of land, and mistake your immortal fate. ”
Chen Yin shook his head firmly: "But Master is old and lonely, I must not abandon Master." (To be continued.) )>
