Chapter 1481: Affinity with the Buddha

He remembered entering his scripture room, but he didn't realize it. Liu Ben found that there seemed to be a big gap between his strength and his imagination, and it seemed that he was not so strong in cultivation.

You know, if someone is forced to such a close distance on the way to the path of cultivation and doesn't realize it, it is very dangerous.

Liu Ben became more and more curious about him. And he said he had been here for thousands of years, which means that he wasn't here thousands of years ago.

Liu Ben felt as if he was covered with a layer of fog. It's very mysterious.

Unconsciously, Liu Ben found that it was completely dark outside. Thousands of miles away, it is almost impossible to return to Jiuxiao Immortal Island at such a late day, and it is destined to sleep outside.

Moreover, Liu Ben also wanted to find a way to suppress the foreign powerhouse from this Buddha disciple.

"Little Master, can I spend the night here?"

Liu Ben said.

"Amitabha. Buddhism is a convenient door, and it is indispensable for the donor to spend the night here. It doesn't matter if it's one night or a few nights. It makes no difference. ”

The young monk pronounced a Buddha horn and said with a pious expression.

Liu Ben found that he was acting entirely in accordance with the precepts of Buddhism.

"Little Master, I just heard you say that you have been transcribing scriptures here for thousands of years. I don't know where he lived thousands of years ago. Is the little master from the Western Continent? ”

Liu Ben still couldn't change his words.

"It's not." The young monk shook his head and lit a few oil lamps. The light of the oil lamp reflects the light and shadow of the buildings, which seems very quiet:

"I have forgotten where I am."

Maybe I haven't spoken to anyone for a long time, and there is only Liu Ben here. The young monk did not look resistant, but was slightly interested:

"All I know is that my master has adopted me and has grown up in the Great Brahma Realm since I was a child."

"The Great Brahma Realm? Little Master is not from this world? ”

Liu Ben was taken aback. He didn't expect that the monk didn't look good, but he wasn't actually from this cultivation realm, think about it carefully. I had never heard of the name of this great Brahma realm.

Judging by the name. Liu Ben's first thought was in the two worlds where Wang Zhixun and Song Donglai were. This monk must be similar to them, all of them are disciples who have come out of the powerful world to practice.

But why did the disciples of such a powerful world run here? And only transcribe scriptures here, and the strength cultivation is so poor?

The young monk nodded, indicating that Liu Ben's guess was correct: "I grew up in the Great Brahma Realm. ”

"Then how did you end up here? Have you never been back to your world for thousands of years? ”

Liu Ben couldn't help but say.

"Nope."

The young monk shook his head, and was rarely asked by Liu Ben, and his expression was slightly sad:

"I'm different from my brother. Since childhood, I have been cultivating for a long time. The exercises are not interested. I only care about the Buddha's teachings and the Dharma. The reason is reasonable, and the law is self-contained, and the Buddha abstains from killing, after all, it is contrary to the senior brothers. Senior brother, they have always disliked, and then the temple was big, the strength of the little monk was too poor, and the master was angry and demoted to this place and asked me to transcribe the Buddhist scriptures. ”

The young monk smiled, seemingly unconcerned about being punished here.

Liu Ben knew that for a person like him who diligently sought and studied Buddhism. It's a remote and quiet place, undisturbed, but it's a good place to go, and it's exactly what you want.

"However, there is a wrong sentence in the little master. It is true that Buddhism does not like to kill, but Buddhism does not abstain from killing. The Buddha subdued demons and subdued demons, subdued the outer way, and relied on killing. ”

Liu Ben said with a smile.

"Senior brother also dabbles in Buddhist scriptures?"

The young monk was stunned. A look of surprise on his face.

"Occasionally, dabble."

Liu Ben said with a smile.

"The donor is wrong. The Buddha abstained from killing, and the Buddha broke out of the belly of the Peacock King. But the Peacock King did not die, but later became the Mother of the Buddha. The Buddha fed eagles and tigers with his body, how could this be killing? ”

The young monk suddenly became interested. The body is straight, and the face is serious, as if talking about something very important.

"It is true that the Peacock King made the Mother of the Buddha, but the Buddha cut open its belly. Isn't it killing? The Buddha fed eagles and tigers with his body, cutting off his own flesh and blood. Is this a kill? Killing doesn't mean that the head will fall to the ground, so it's all killing! ”

Liu Ben looked at the young monk and said with a smile.

"How can this be considered killing?"

The young monk stood upright on his knees, excited. finally put all his thoughts on Liu Ben. It was the first time for Liu Ben to see him so excited, as if he had been greatly stimulated by some kind of great stimulus, as if Liu Ben had insulted his faith.

"Although the Buddha cut open the belly of the Peacock King, it was to subdue its ferocity and finally make it clear. forsake evil and see good; The Buddha cut off his own flesh and blood, but made the beast lie in ruins, heard the Dharma, and opened wisdom. This is degree, it is ascension, and what does it have to do with killing? ”

The young monk is colorful.

"Hehe, kill, killing is killing. If you have the intention of killing, you will kill, and if you kill others, you will kill. To kill yourself is to kill. If the Buddha abstains from killing, then he should renounce all killing. The so-called killing is the protection of life, if the Buddha abstains from killing, why should there be so many vajra and arhat protectors? These King Kong and Arhats are not holding dishes in their hands, are they? When did even King Kong and Arhat quit killing? ”

Liu Ben said lightly.

"The Buddha pays attention to the heart of being born and is good, and obtains the three bodhisattvas. All bodhisattvas, arhats, and vajrayas are the same. Vajra and Arhat Buddha are not profound. How does the superficial cultivation represent the attainment of Buddhahood? For example, if someone makes a mistake, will his relatives not be able to sit together? ”

The monk said solemnly, completely taking this as a Buddhist debate.

"Hehe, one person makes a mistake. Relatives don't need to sit together. But if a soldier kills, is the general not responsible? If the son violates the law, is Venerable Puling not responsible? Aren't Vajra and Arhats practicing the Dharma? Killing for the sake of protecting the living, you should have heard this sentence. Moreover, eagles and tigers are vulgar and meat-eating, and the Buddha subdued ferocity, what do eagles and tigers feed on? To grass? If the eagle and tiger die because of this, is the Buddha considered killing? ”

Liu Ben laughed at the end.

The young monk was dumbfounded. Liu Ben said that King Kong and Arhat killed, and he could still distinguish it. After all, Vajra and Arhat are not Buddhas.

But when Liu Ben said that the eagle and tiger starved to death and the Buddha killed, the young monk opened his mouth and could not be distinguished. Liu Ben's translation of this rhetoric is really unheard of and undistinguishable.

The Buddha fed eagles and tigers with his body, which is a Buddhist allusion. But according to Liu Benyi, it became the Buddha killing. To say that the Buddha killed living beings is completely unacceptable.

This is completely different from Vajra and Arhat.

The young monk instinctively felt that Liu Ben's speech was a little inappropriate, but he couldn't say it? Could it be that the Buddha kills living beings? This is clearly not true.

The young monk squatted there, stunned, with cold sweat on his forehead. He studied Buddhism intensively, and the killing of the Buddha in Liu Ben's mouth had a great impact on him.

"Therefore, killing is a nursing. If you want to promote Buddhism, you still need to have strong force. The so-called punishment of evil is to promote goodness, and the little master likes literature and hates martial arts, so I am afraid that he has gone in the wrong direction. ”

Liu Ben said with a smile, and finally said his purpose.

This monk is a bit of a dementia, and after receiving the benefits of others, he always does something good. His Dharma is so profound, but his cultivation is so poor.

Liu Ben really couldn't look at it.

"The donor also studied the Buddhist scriptures. The little monk admired, and he didn't know where the donor got the Fa. I hope that the donor can stay for a few more days, and the little monk hopes to be able to learn the Dharma with the donor. ”

The young monk suddenly knelt on the ground and bowed deeply, with an attitude of humbly studying and asking for advice. even wanted Liu Ben to stay for a few more days on the spot, and wanted to learn Buddhist scriptures and Buddhism with him, which frightened Liu Ben.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be."

Liu Ben hurriedly stood up and helped the young monk with both hands. This monk is simple in nature and is fanatical about Buddhism, and when he worships him like this, Liu Ben is uneasy in his heart.

When it comes to Buddhism and Buddhism, I am far from him. Liu Ben didn't want to mislead people.

"Little Master is serious. You see me too much. In fact, I have already said that I am an ordinary Taoist monk, and I am not a disciple of Buddhism at all. -- To be honest, I didn't learn any Buddhist scriptures or Buddhist principles at all. ”

Liu Ben said, this monk is too straight in nature, he really can't bear to lie to him.

"No, senior brother, don't scold me. Buddhism has declined, if the donor has not studied Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist principles. How do you know so much about Buddhism? And so deep understanding? The little monk was stupid, seeing that the senior brother had the aura of an external demon, and thought that the senior brother was a foreigner. Can't you see that the Dharma is so profound? To punish evil is to promote goodness, and the little monk is taught. ”

The young monk was extremely respectful to Liu Ben. Buddhism is in decline, and in this era, everyone practices Taoist exercises. It's really not easy to find a fellow practitioner who can distinguish and talk about the Fa with you.

There are only one or two people in a million!

The young monk apparently regarded Liu Ben as a fellow practitioner.

Liu Ben smiled bitterly, this is called cocooning self-restraint. Liu Ben didn't want to lie to him, and finally put it together:

"Although I have read a little bit about Buddhism in the wild history, it is only a passing one. The real contact with Buddhist scriptures and Dharma is actually from a young master. ”

"Me?"

The young monk exclaimed, feeling that Liu Ben was lying to himself.

"It's true. When the little master was transcribing the scriptures, I stood in the back and watched. This was my first exposure to Buddhist scriptures. I don't usually practice it. ”

Liu Ben admitted frankly.

"How is that possible?"

The young monk looked horrified. is even more horrified than when Liu Ben talked about Buddhism and killing before:

"I write Sanskrit, can you read Sanskrit?"

"I don't understand."

Liu Ben shook his head honestly: "But I can see the Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, Vajra, and Futu Vientiane that you have incarnated into words. So strictly speaking, it's still the Buddhist scriptures you taught me. ”

"See?"

The young monk looked shocked: "Can you see the scriptures I wrote?" Just for a moment, you understand? ”

The young monk did not expect it, and went around and around. Liu Ben actually learned the Buddhist scriptures from him. What I didn't expect was that this strange visitor couldn't read Sanskrit, but he knew that he could see and understand his scriptures? (To be continued......)
