Chapter 6: The Mystery of One Finger

At dinner, Fahai's heart was pounding, and the deeper his gaze was at him, the more inscrutable it was, and the smile on his mother's face became richer and kinder, which made Fahai feel like a thief. However, fortunately, Fa Er was still trustworthy, and the master and the master did not ask about participating in Zen, and Fahai was relatively stable in his heart.

Following.

Although Fahai doesn't have to carry two barrels with pointed bottoms every morning to work every morning to polish his body and bones, he also has his own job.

True aristocracy requires at least three generations of nurturing. Although Fahai is a phoenix with lost hair, but he is born with a kind of graceful temperament of a child, as well as the appearance inherited from his mother, although he is not a beautiful man, but he can also be regarded as a beautiful man, and his appearance is dignified.

Early this morning, Fahai and Fa Er got up early and dressed up carefully, and went to the lower courtyard with the Zen Master Wudu, who looked like a dignified monk.

The lower courtyard of Dalin is the only courtyard of the temple open to earthly pilgrims, the lower courtyard not only represents the image of Dalin in the world, but also is responsible for taking care of the temple property, and the incense of the lower courtyard also supports the daily use of thousands of people in Dalin Temple.

Therefore, the whole Dalin Courtyard is built with great momentum, the law is strict, a mound and a pillar, a grass and a tree, all have been carefully arranged, full of Buddhist atmosphere.

The place where Wudu Zen Master sits in meditation and points out the maze is called a reed pavilion, which is on a hill behind the Daxiong Treasure Hall in the lower courtyard, and the layout of the pavilion is extremely simple, only one stone table, an incense burner, and two futons.

The breeze outside the pavilion is gentle, the light smoke in the pavilion is curling, and the sandalwood is swirling, which makes people feel calm and happy.

Wudu Zen Master has a great reputation in the world, and his status is respected among believers, so not everyone can come up to the reed pavilion where he sits in meditation, and only the Tanyue monks who are bold and spend a lot of money will be attracted here by the Zhike Master. The couplet in front of the pavilion is proof of this.

"A piece is worth a thousand gold; Enlightenment is Bodhi. ”

Wudu Zen Master is calm and leisurely in a reed pavilion to drink tea and recuperate, indescribably leisurely. Behind him, Fahai was leaning on a pillar with a whisk in his arms and lazily playing Hachi, while Fa Er followed Zazen for the first time, and was extremely uncomfortable with the quiet atmosphere here and felt very bored.

"Senior brother, I'm surprised. We monks don't do anything serious for a day, how can so many people be monks? ”

"People who do serious things will always spend their money on things that are not serious, so it's no surprise that everyone came into being." Combined with all kinds of previous lives, Fahai felt it.

"Senior brother, you said that if one day the Dharma is not popular, won't we all starve to death?"

"Monks should not learn from others to be far-sighted, and be a monk for a day. Besides, Buddhism is not popular, let's prepare to transform and become a Taoist, as long as we can give people guidance, where can we not live and nourish? ”

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south! Xiaohai, you have come to your senses. ”

Zen Master Wudu, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating his mind, suddenly opened his eyes, as if aroused by Fahai's words, and said,

To be a qualified Zen master, you must learn to see feng shui, do good deeds, preach scriptures, make up the other side, and pretend to be open, pretend to be compassionate, and pretend to be smiling. If you can't learn it, then don't be a Zen master, just go to a practice teacher, although it is a hard work, but learn the ability to subdue demons and subdue demons with one hand, you will not starve to death. ”

"Master, is there such a big gap between this mage and a Zen master?" Faheqi said.

"It is also a practice of Buddhism, and the most that a Dharma master has cultivated to Dzogchen is to become a 'master', and it is difficult to further become a 'titled master'. Since Buddhism was introduced to Middle-earth, two of the three 'holy monks' were born as Zen masters, don't you see the advantages of Zen masters? Zen Master Wudu said leisurely.

After following Wudu Zen Master for more than ten years, Fahai really understands the terms in the mouth of the Zen master.

Tuasa is an honorific title for those who practice Buddhism above the third grade, which is equivalent to the feather priest of the Taoist Gate.

The title of Guru is an honorific title that can only be obtained by cultivators who cultivate to achieve immortality or more, and it is common to Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism; As for the holy monk, it is even more remarkable, simply put, he is the first person in the world of Buddhism.

There are three sects of Buddhism in the world, namely Sutra, Heart and Tantra, and at present, Sutra is the largest sect in Middle-earth. The sutras practice Mahayana Buddhism, and they chant sutras much more than practice the Dharma on weekdays, and what they pursue is to realize the Dharma and become a Buddha on the ground. Perhaps, in terms of fighting, killing, and killing, the sutra sect is not as good as the tantric sect and the heart sect, but in terms of the comprehension of all kinds of scriptures, the tantric and heart sects are out of reach.

"Only pursuing mana and not pursuing the state of mind, the more we cultivate to the later stage, the more difficult it becomes, and the pursuit of the state of mind by us who practice Buddhism is a Zen heart, to put it bluntly, it is the comprehension of all kinds of scriptures. Therefore, you see the elders in the temple, in the first half of their lives, they made a great name with their magic power, and they were very majestic, and in the second half of their lives, they all went to Zen behind closed doors and pursued their state of mind. If you look at the elders of the Xianzong Sect, the younger they live, the older they get, the more they jump, and it is much easier for them to turn into rainbows and soar than us. ”

Zen Master Wudu swallowed his saliva and concluded, "So, these scriptures and meanings are definitely the foundation of your life, and you need to study them well. ”

"Cultivating the mind will benefit you for life, and what you need to do now is to familiarize yourself with the scriptures and meanings, and practice until you can casually occupy the scriptures, point out the maze, and become more and more confused." Master Wudu finally concluded.

While speaking, three young people dressed as nobles and scholars climbed a reed pavilion along the rockery, and bowed down in front of the Wudu Zen Master with a reverent face.

"The three of them are about to go to Beijing to catch the exam, and I heard that the Zen master is superb in Buddhism, can know the past and the future, and must be right in his words, so I will come to Fashan to offer five hundred taels of small money as incense. I wonder if the Zen master can count the three of us and see who can go to high school? ”

Hearing this, Wudu Zen Master nodded slightly, his hands formed dozens of Dharma seals one after another, and in an instant, a smile of wisdom beads appeared on his sanctimonious old face, and his arm was lightly raised, as if my Buddha stretched out a finger to the void lightly, and continued to sit still, his eyes closed slightly, as if he was settled, and there was no word.

"A finger? What does that mean? ”

The three scholars were full of doubts, and just as they were about to open their mouths to ask again, Fahai had already raised a Buddha call, "Amitabha!" Zen Master Fang Cai has already communicated with the Buddha from the East who is in charge of the future rebirth in the Western Heavens, and the answer you want is between these fingers......"

"Little Master, what does this finger of Zen Master mean?"

"The heavenly machine cannot be revealed, although my Buddha's magic power is boundless, but only give the world a trace of Zen, enlightenment, the answer is at ease...... South~None~A~Mi~Buddha~"

After Fahai made an unfathomable noise of the Buddha's name, he learned to have no crossing, his hands were closed, his eyes were looking at his nose, his nose was looking at his heart, and he was silent.

Seeing this, Fa Er was afraid that he would be caught by three scholars and let him explain Zen, but he couldn't pretend to be as good as Fahai, so he quickly closed his eyes, shook off the dust, closed his palm with one hand, and recited his most familiar Lengyan Sutra over and over again.

Seeing the demeanor of the three masters and apprentices, the three scholars were embarrassed to ask again, after all, we are full of scholars, aren't we?

The little monks all said that they had to rely on understanding, how could we, a talented and quick reader, admit in public that we have no understanding? Go home and realize, even if you can't realize the master's Zen machine for a while, won't you know the result when you come back from the exam?

As soon as they thought of this, the three of them immediately put away their doubts, and they all showed a look of understanding, shook their heads and thanked them.

"Brother Zhang, have you understood?"

"This son is gifted and intelligent, of course he understands!! What about you? ”

"My son has learned to be rich and has five cars, and he has long been enlightened!"

"What did you realize?"

"The Buddha said~ Don't say." (Together)

……

"Whew, it's finally gone, it's scared to death!" Fa Er took a long breath and nervously wiped the beads of sweat from his head.

"What is this, we who cultivate Buddhism, we must learn to be calm!" Fahai smiled slightly.

"Senior brother, what does it mean that Master stretched out a finger? Is there anyone who will pass the exam? If they make a mistake, they will come up to the mountain to make trouble in the future, and our master's sign will be smashed! Fa Er asked like a cannon.

"I don't know."

"I don't know if you're still so calm with them~ calm?"

"Amitabha, not knowing is knowing, knowing is not knowing, whether it knows or not, I am comfortable with it, this is the true meaning of calmness!" Fahai felt the touch, suddenly felt the breeze blowing on his face, and his heart was enlightened, as if his mood had improved again.

"Xiaohai, you've come to your senses!"

Zen Master Wudu said with great relief, "One finger can be said to be a person's success, or it can be said that one person is not hit, and it can also be said that it is a high school together, and it can be said that it is a failure to hit together." So, no matter what the results of the three of them are in this rush, we can explain the past. Method 2, have you come to your senses? ”

"Uh...... Master, it's too difficult to guide the maze, why don't we change our careers to practice as a master~~"
