Chapter 62: There's a mystery inside
"Sooner or later, revenge will be avenged, I can feel that Alona Shun will not live long." Talia said.
"Talia, tell the kings that the road has been cleared of enemy forces and that they can go back."
Talia instructed his servants to inform the kings. In a short time, several kings came to thank him, and after a few polite exchanges, they set off for their own country.
After this battle, Liu Fengwei became famous, of course, after this debate, the snow mountain cherry tomatoes have spread in the mouths of the nobles.
Rare leisure, Liu Feng, Talia and Kulanyi carefully observed in the Great Bodhi Temple, the country of Buddha is still a country of Buddha, which feels really good.
Suddenly, I remembered something, and sent someone to find the senior monk Lado from Shimira, as well as Master Razhi, Lu Wen, who failed the debate conference, and other senior monks, and a group of people came to the Great Bodhi Temple. The Bodhi tree where the Buddha enlightened has now grown luxuriantly, and many monks worship and practice Buddha here.
Seeing that the people have almost come, the most famous great wisdom is here. Liu Feng led everyone to the Bodhisattva statue on the side of the tree, the legend of the Rongri Kingdom, if the Bodhisattva statue is submerged in the dust, then Buddhism will be extinct in the Rongri Kingdom. Now that the sand has sunk into the neck of the Bodhisattva statue, looking at this scene, several eminent monks look sad.
For hundreds of years, there have been countless monasteries in the Rongri Kingdom, and practitioners can be seen everywhere, especially in this Jialuo Kingdom. The birthplace of the Buddha, Lumbini, the great Bodhi Temple of the Buddha's enlightenment, and the Naranto Temple, which is the largest, has many monks. Nowadays, it has withered one after another, and the monasteries have either been destroyed by the war or have fallen into the cold.
"Ladies and gentlemen", Liu Feng's words interrupted the thoughts of the monks, and they all looked up to see the marshal from the Tang Dynasty, who brought everyone here today, and everyone was full of doubts. Liu Feng cleared his throat and continued, "I don't understand Buddhism, but in my Tang Dynasty, Buddhism is very prosperous, and there are fixed numbers and variables in all living beings. ”
"The same is true of Buddhism, and at the debate meeting a few days ago, I believe you have already experienced that if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will be able to make progress, and if you are successful, you will be able to do it for a long time. Today, I'm going to show you first. ”
After speaking, Liu Feng ordered the soldiers, picked up the tools that were in good condition, reached out and turned out a shovel, cleaned up the Bodhisattva statue, and then ordered the sergeants:
"Right here, build a lotus platform, and ask the Bodhisattva to stand on the lotus platform." After speaking, he looked at Venerable Raji, "After today, I hope that Venerable Master will send someone to protect the Bodhisattva, so that the filth will not defile the Bodhisattva." ”
"Good, good." Raji agreed.
"We are here, the Buddha is here, the Bodhisattva is here, how can Buddhism die?" Liu Feng made a pun. When the Great Wise Ones heard this, they fell into deep thought again.
Dharma is philosophy, life is philosophy, and war is philosophy. There are many things worth thinking about, some people don't care about doing things, thinking day and night, and some people do things day and night and can't think about it. Perhaps, this is just a way for the universe to work, so let it be.
Since you have come to this Buddha country, you must go to Lantuo Temple, and Liu Feng also wants to know what kind of charm this Lantuo Temple has, and he has kept Master Xuanzang for so many years. Moreover, this monastery is famous far and wide, thousands of miles away in the Tang Dynasty, there are countless monks who dream of coming to Nalanto.
In less than half a day, they arrived at Nalanda Temple.
Nalanto Monastery is the largest monastery in the Rongri Kingdom, built by the kings of the Gupta Dynasty, and later kings who converted to Buddhism, including Rongri Wang, have been expanded or renovated. The Sanskrit word naranto means "fearless" or "fearless", and the Buddha used to speak here for three months. The temple is magnificent, and the sound of Lang Lang's chanting can be heard far, far away.
The little monk who had received the reception was notified in advance, so he took Liu Feng and a few people into the temple for a tour.
Layers of buildings and monasteries, boulder-paved floors, monks everywhere, and a house full of books. According to the little monk, there are now more than 9 million volumes of books in this place, and tens of thousands of monks have come to learn and practice. Jiangara is a country of Buddhism, and there are many people who take care of the monks who come to study, and there are special people to serve and eat, so that the monks can concentrate on learning Buddhism.
Seeing that Liu Feng was from the Tang Dynasty, the little monk introduced: "There have been more than 100 monks from the Tang Dynasty who have come to study Buddhism. "The little monk seems to have a good impression of the Tang people.
"At the debate conference that year, Master Xuanzang was alone, and his opponents of various religions emerged in an endless stream, and no one had the slightest chance to win against Master Xuanzang." At present, the teachers in the temple persuaded Master Xuanzang to stay here to study Buddhism, but he must return to Datang and pass the Buddhist classics back to Datang.
In fact, Liu Feng didn't know about these things, and Liu Feng even knew that more than a thousand years later, the mainland donated money and built the Xuanzang Memorial Hall in this Nalantuo Temple.
However, several other things introduced by the little monk caught Liu Feng's attention.
It turned out that there were 1,500 teachers in this Nalanto Monastery, and the most important thing was that, in addition to the Buddhist monks, there were many scholars in logic, medicine, mathematics, astronomy, architecture, and agriculture.
It looks like a monastery, but in fact, it is a comprehensive university, and the style of study is unparalleled.
"Students don't need to worry about their daily lives, they just need to study with peace of mind, and they will be taken care of by someone when they do everything. Every day, there is a forum to learn various kinds of knowledge. The little monk continued to introduce, and then scratched his head, "If you don't concentrate on studying, you'll be embarrassed to greet others." ”
