Chapter 408: Buddhism's Good and Evil Enter Reincarnation
Liu Yu said softly: "I said, it seems that you Hu people don't shave your heads, and then burn a few more scars, it's ugly to death, if a man is fine, if it's a woman, there are still a few scars on the bare head, then you can't be ugly." ”
Murong Nan laughed out loud all of a sudden: "Liu Yu, Liu Yu, people are monks, strictly speaking, they are no longer people in this world, do you still care about this beauty and ugliness?" The scar is called the ring scar, which is to prevent the hair from growing back, because in Buddhism, people believe that the hair is called the three thousand troubles, which symbolizes the bond with the world. ”
Liu Yu nodded: "This is a bit interesting, the hair is related to the world." ”
Speaking of this, Liu Yu suddenly thought of before joining the army, and Liu Muzhi had been humiliated at the Jiang family's wedding banquet, and afterwards Liu Muzhi's wife Jiang, in order to appease her husband's injured heart, did not hesitate to cut off a lot of hair, sold it for a meal of wine and meat, that meal was so warm, full of warmth, it can be said that it is the most heartwarming meal he has ever eaten in his life, thinking of this, Liu Yu couldn't help but sigh, sighing: "I have a brother who was once bullied, and after returning home, his wife cut off one of his hair, sold it for wine and meat to comfort her husband, but that time it was not the same as Buddhism to cut the thread of troubles. ”
Murong Nan's eyes widened: "Is there really such a woman, she doesn't even want her hair, just to change her husband's wine and eat?" As for this? ”
Liu Yu nodded: "Because his husband was humiliated in public at the banquet, he had no face to see people, and even because of this, he put down the dignity of a literati. I experienced it all myself and it was touching. ”
Murong Nan didn't say a word, his eyes sparkled, and he looked at Liu Yu straight for a long time before he said softly: "If you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for a husband." Liu Yu, I hope you can have such a good lady in the future, who can accompany you for the rest of your life. ”
Liu Yu suddenly laughed: "I'm not worried about this, I believe that Miaoyin will not do worse than that woman." You see............"
As he spoke, he pointed to the red thread tied on his right arm, and his eyes were suddenly full of tenderness and sweetness, as if Wang Miaoyin was standing in front of him, within reach: "Look, my love with Miaoyin is here, we have made an appointment to live for a lifetime, she will definitely be a gentle and virtuous wife, accompany me for a lifetime." ”
Murong Nan turned his head, and an imperceptible look flashed in his eyes: "I wish you and Miss Wang a hundred years of happiness." By the way, Liu Yu, I said that there is a mistake, you just asked about the reincarnation of Buddhism, and I haven't said it yet. In fact, this reincarnation is a theory that Buddhism is different from other religions, they believe that people live in the world, death is not the end, and after death, people will decide whether to go to the world of bliss or go to hell according to their actions before death. ”
Liu Yu muttered, "Elysium, tongue-pulling hell? What are they? Is it a place for enjoyment or atonement? ”
Murong Nan nodded: "Yes, if you do good deeds in your life and have no faults, you can go to the Elysium and enjoy all the happiness that you can't enjoy in the world." On the contrary, if you do evil deeds, you will go to hell to pull out your tongue according to your evil deeds, and suffer all kinds of tortures, such as those who lack virtue in their mouths will have their tongues pulled out, murderers will be beheaded and disemboweled, and those who rape ** women will be castrated and punished incessantly, and so on, and the evil committed in the world will be repaid a hundred times and a thousand times. ”
Liu Yu stuck out his tongue: "It's so ruthless, then it seems that I have killed so many people in my life, I must be going to hell, and when the time comes, I will be cut into ten or eight sections every day, and then sewn it up and continue to chop, right?" ”
Murong Nan smiled and hammered his fist on Liu Yu's chest: "Look at your greasy mouth, if you want me to say, before I chop you up every day and sew it up again, I have to cut your troublesome tongue every day." ”
Liu Yu instinctively wanted to punch Murong Nan's chest as well, but a flash of lightning flashed in his mind, thinking of what happened last time, the hand he just wanted to stretch out stopped in mid-air, he hooked the corners of his mouth, and said: "Don't talk about this, it's scary to say, but after completing the pleasure or torture, what will happen to these reincarnated people?" Also, when the body is still there after death, how can people go to Elysium or go to hell? ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the burning corpses outside the city: "You see, if we don't burn these corpses, it is estimated that we can store them here for ten days and half a month. This lie can't be fulfilled. ”
Murong Nan put away his smile and said, "Liu Yu, it is not the human body that goes to heaven and earth, but the soul, or rather, the soul. This is also recognized by the Taoists here. ”
Liu Yu nodded: "We call it soul here, three souls and seven souls, but there is no reincarnation or anything." Could it be that it is the soul that goes to heaven and earth after death? And what is reincarnation? ”
Murong Nan said with a smile: "Everything has a soul, and this soul is reincarnated. ”
Liu Yu shook his head: "I don't believe it." If, according to what you say, among the three souls of the soul, there is a soul of the memory of the master, if my current soul is reincarnated from someone, then why don't I have any memory of my previous life? ”
Murong Nan looked at Liu Yu motionlessly, and his voice became ethereal and distant: "Because, in the teachings of Buddhism, before the soul is reincarnated, it has to pass through a river, that river is called Lethe, and there is a bridge on it, called Nai He Bridge, there is an old woman at the head of the bridge, and before each soul goes to reincarnation, he will drink a bowl of Meng Po soup, after drinking, all the memories of the previous life will be lost and become blank, and the next life will be reincarnated, and according to your practice in the previous life, you will still become a human being in the good world, and you will become a grass and tree beast in the evil world. They were killed and eaten to atone for their former sins. ”
Liu Yu breathed a long sigh of relief: "There is still such a saying, it's really amazing, in this way, if you do evil in your last life, you will not only suffer from that tongue-pulling hell after death, but you will continue to atone for your sins in the next life." In that life, I am afraid that there are many evil deeds, and no one can not do evil in the whole life, so will there be anyone in the world? ”
Murong Nan smiled slightly: "It's not only people who have souls, Buddhism talks about the six realms of reincarnation, that is, plants, trees and animals, all of them have souls, and they will also have reincarnation." ”
Liu Yu hooked the corners of his mouth: "It sounds impeccable." In this way, the enemy sergeants who killed us were lucky, and they did not continue to kill and do evil, maybe they can be human beings again in the next life, but you and I have so many lives in our hands now, I don't know how many lives we will have to redeem it. Brother Murong, you said that if I became a horse in my next life, what would happen to you? ”
Murong Nan looked at Liu Yu and said calmly: "Then I will also become a horse and continue to accompany you." ”
