Chapter 497: Prayer
Unlike yesterday's sporadic pilsmers, there were many people gathered in the Maduo Po Ling Monastery today, and it seems that today's empowerment and blessing prayers were arranged a long time ago, and the square stones came just by chance.
Others don't know, but Fang Shi knows, the so-called empowerment prayer is the same as the puja blessing ceremony, the key lies in the size of the will, and the wish power relies on the pious crowd to gather, and the crowd gathering itself will also have a group effect, which can greatly improve the efficiency of the gathering of the will.
Therefore, the blessing of Lou Jingzhong alone is definitely not as effective as sharing it with others during a public empowerment ceremony.
Fang Shi and Zhang Kexin were invited to the site of the blessing ceremony as distinguished guests, and a low couch was placed on the side of the main hall, and the two of them sat there, while Lou Jingzhong and Xu Liquan, who needed to pray for blessings, honestly lined up in the crowd, holding a plate with tribute and Hada in their hands, and there were people waiting for the empowerment of Master Zhishan like them, including locals and tourists, everyone's faces were solemn, and some were even more excited and some couldn't help themselves.
Lou Jingzhong and Xu Liquan are in the middle position, this position is obviously also exquisite, in fact, it is not the first best, and it will not be the last best, the best effect of empowerment and blessing should be in the middle, of course, if Master Zhishan is good at guiding, then it doesn't matter where it is.
Before the ceremony began, the sutras and prayers were to be recited, Fang Shi and Zhang Kexin did not understand the scriptures, so they had to watch from the side, and as for the devotees waiting for the initiation, they honestly knelt on the futon, and those who knew the scriptures followed along, and listened honestly if they did not understand.
The murmuring scriptures resonated in the main hall. Look up at the tall Buddha statues that are either compassionate or hideous. I was shocked by the solemn atmosphere around me. Coupled with the guidance of the scriptures, the believers were unconsciously assimilated by the environment, and the solemn Buddha statue seemed to come to life in the eyes of everyone, and the believers were surging with irrepressible excitement and piety, and the distractions in their hearts were swept away, leaving only the reverence for the gods and Buddhas.
This is a sound mantra, I don't know what the scriptures are, but this kind of sound mantra hardly requires mental energy. Relying on the resonance of the group to form a spell effect, and then guided by the host, is a common spell that benefits but does not cost, this spell in the Guangfa Temple and Fang Shi cooperation in the study of the mantra belongs to a very ordinary Buddhist magic, but the effect is very good.
The yin and yang aura and wish caused by this kind of Cheng dΓΉ's sound mantra are not large, and it is not even tickling for Fang Shi, Fang Shi looked around the scene without care, observing the impact of this sound mantra on ordinary people.
Master Zhishan, who was sitting on the high seat, lowered his eyes, but he had been observing Fang Shi's movements, and he was now doing it in front of a master. Even if he is profound, and his mind is firm, it is inevitable that he will care a little about Fang Shi's evaluation of himself. After all, Fang Shi was the only master he had seen, and he also longed for Fang Shi's approval in his heart.
Seeing that Fang Shi was not affected by the sound spell at all, and there was not even the slightest defense, Master Zhishan couldn't help but admire it very much, the Central Plains of the Heart Road is really the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Qingcheng Mountain is just one of the top ten famous mountains, and such a young monster has been cultivated, if there is a chance, he should also go to the Central Plains to travel around, increase his knowledge, and it is still not good to build a car behind closed doors all day long, as Fang Shi said yesterday, communication is the king!
Zhang Kexin, who was sitting next to Fang Shi, had to guard his mind at this moment, and formed a defensive circle around him to resist the influence of the sound spell, Fang Shi naturally saw it, and he also appreciated the solid basic skills of the senior brother of Longhu Mountain.
At the end of the prayer, the bronze bell rings three times, and the monks turn 90 degrees, facing the middle passage on the left and right, and the monks outside who are in charge of arranging the ceremony explain in a low voice to the devotees the rules of waiting to enter and receive the empowerment and prayer.
"You enter one by one, hold your hands above your head with your hands in your hands, bow down, and sit down with your hada in your hands, bow your head three times, accept the lama's rubbing, don't speak when you receive the blessing, get up and fold your hands together, and then leave through the left passage."
After a while, the ceremony began, the first believer who accepted the top of the Mo excitedly held Hada, bent down and walked forward quickly, because he was too nervous, he almost fell, but no one dared to laugh out loud, there was only a low chanting sound in the hall, and so on until this believer respectfully offered Hada, and then knelt on the ground and bowed three times.
Master Zhishan began to chant the mantra, Fang Shi's eyes lit up, this is the official spell, the breath of the entire hall suddenly became active with the spell of Master Zhishan, and the power of the wish that was originally gathered on the Buddha statue was also moved, and the yin and yang breath and the power of the wish were organically gathered together, forming a spiral-shaped nebula, suspended above the head of Master Zhishan, and then along his hand, he pulled a thing like an elephant's trunk, touched it on the person who was blessed by the Moding, and quickly retracted it.
Fang Shi looked very carefully, and at such a touch, the breath on the body of the believer who accepted the top of the Mo was suddenly assimilated for a short time, and there was a relatively strong resonance, which was quite similar to his own ability to pray for blessings, but his own ability was more dense and pure, and the empowerment of the master of Zhishan was characterized by high intensity, and the strong resonance instantly squeezed out some bad breath in the human body, and the wish power in it can dispel the mysterious karma and bad luck.
When the man got up and folded his face excitedly, Fang Shi threw a Qi Hope Technique in front of Master Zhishan without hesitation.
Master Zhishan's empowerment and blessing are really powerful, the fortune of the person just now is -1, the luck is -1, and now it is zero, which Fang Shi can also do, but with Fang Shi's current spiritual power reserves, it is great to do six or seven at most, and the consequence of doing this is that his own fortune will be in a very dangerous downturn all day long.
And Master Zhishan did this without any consequences, because he was just guiding the huge power of desire and yin and yang, and it was not Master Zhishan who was paying at all.
Fang Shi looked straight and nodded, this is the royal way, the Xuanmen magic pays attention to 'borrowing', borrowing the power of heaven and earth is the essence of a warlock, if you only rely on your own strength, the effect is quite limited.
Fang Shi carefully watched Master Zhishan guide the spiral above his head again and again to stretch out the elephant's trunk to pray for blessings, and also noticed that the wishes of the believers and monks are also constantly converging into the vortex nebula, this method is really good, as long as the spiritual power and mental power of Master Zhishan allows, he can also continue to pray for blessings, in fact, the wish power has not been consumed, but may increase slightly, as for the yin and yang breath between heaven and earth, it is even more inexhaustible, What's more, this is still the Kunlun Mountains.
Finally it was Lou Jingzhong's turn, although Lou Jingzhong had some reluctance to bow down, but thinking of the cause and effect in his body, Master Zhishan was an elder, so he had to pinch his nose and admit it, besides, this kneeling worship is not a person, but a 'Buddha'.
When Lou Jingzhong bowed forward, Master Zhishan suddenly arrived: "Just bow down." β
Lou Jingzhong was stunned for a moment, and then bowed gratefully, this bow was just a thanks, indicating that the other party helped him clear the cause and effect.
Lou Jingzhong bowed respectfully, the old monk smiled slightly, began to recite the scriptures again, and then reached out to touch the top of Lou Jingzhong's head, this time the time was much longer than that of ordinary people, Fang Shi squinted his eyes and watched, because Lou Jingzhong's body has much more yin and yang breath than ordinary people, and the spiritual resistance is much stronger, so this time the elephant's trunk induced by Master Zhishan is much thicker, and the speed of resonance is much slower, Fang Shi can clearly see that the resonance starts from the head and gradually descends, and finally pushes out the soles of the feet, Master Zhishan took advantage of the situation to accept the spell.
"The donor, please, the donor has great merit, but also has great cause and effect, becoming a Buddha and becoming a demon is only in a thought, and the donor must not mistake himself."
"The master's teaching is that my master's family will be bound to me, and I only want to become a Buddha in the future, thank you master."
Master Zhishan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Donor, please." β
Next is Xu Liquan, Xu Liquan, who is still hanging an arm, regardless of the wound, still holds the Hada in a proper manner, bows honestly, and prays for blessings, Master Zhishan also instructed him a few words, Xu Liquan wrote it down respectfully, and left after saluting
In the evening, Fang Shi and others were about to say goodbye, Master Zhishan personally sent it to the outside of the mountain gate, all the monks were surprised by this, after walking outside the mountain gate, Master Zhishan still did not stop, and Fang Shi and the two walked towards the stone steps together, and everyone else was left behind.
"Master stay, if the master moves, don't forget to visit Qingcheng Mountain."
"The poor monk also has this thought, and after many years of closed-door consultation, it is better to talk to Elder Fang, and the benefits are a lot! Reading 10,000 books still needs to travel 10,000 miles, and sure enough, the poor monk arranged things and went to the Central Plains. β
"Then I'll wait for the master's visit, oh, by the way, what is the relationship between the master and the south?"
"There are some exchanges, but they don't stop at the Dharma, and Maduo Baoling Monastery is a clean temple that does not tolerate the defilement of the world."
"It's so good, it's better to be peaceful in this world, the so-called strife, in the end it's just a game for some careerists, my head of Qingcheng also has this wish, we are the Pure Land outside the world, or we should return to the essence of the good."
"That's right, the poor monk will not be sent far away, and I hope to meet with the elder Zhongyuan again another day to discuss the truth of heaven, earth and man."
Fang Shi stopped and turned around, took two steps back, and bowed: "Master, please stay, there will be a period later." β
"Elder Fang, please!"
Lou Jing and the others also sped up a few steps, walked behind Fang Shi, bowed together, and then turned around and walked towards the parking lot, and after a while, the two cars staggered away along the dirt road, Master Zhishan held the rosary in both hands, whispered the scriptures of prayer, and watched his friends go away.
The wise monk looked at the master curiously, this is the most noble etiquette that the master has given to the guests after he has followed the master for so many years, what kind of ability does this young Fang Shi have?
"Master, Master."
"Wise, the teacher is going to the Central Plains in the near future, are you willing to follow?"
"Disciple is willing to go!"
"The Central Plains is really the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and in the future, you will have to take turns to travel, behind closed doors, and the way to perish! Okay, let's go back, it's time for evening class. β
"Yes, Master." (To be continued......)
