[Father's majestic debate style of overthrowing the four elders, Tang Bohu is here]

One day, a dispute at home showed me the power of my father.

On that day, the four Weng of plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum argued, and the topic of the debate was, "Is it necessary to cultivate the Tao without a view of the door?" ”

Mei, Lan, and Zhu Sanweng have a negative attitude, and Juzhuang Weng has a positive attitude, and everyone argues very much, but I can also hear that the three old men can't fight one old man.

Ju Zhuang Weng only said: "Cultivation will eventually embrace all rivers, and the avenue will be the same after all." ”

No matter what the three say, their momentum has stopped, which is called "get one, everything is done." ”

At that time, I guess my father couldn't stand it anymore, and he said, "Boy, let's say a few words." ”

The four old men immediately let him speak, because the current situation was a foregone conclusion, and his father said eloquently: "Boy, I think so, at the beginning of the way of cultivation, the sword is a sword, and the sword is a sword, which is absolutely incompatible. ”

After saying that, he looked at Ju Zhuang Weng, the old man opened his mouth and couldn't speak, the three kept nodding, and the smile overflowed between his eyebrows, and my grandfather said loudly: "This is called 'disagree'." ”

My father paused for a moment and then said: "After the basic skills are completed, you can 'have no definite law', and even 'return to the sect', this is the true meaning of 'the great road is not two'!" Is there a problem with that? ”

After speaking, he looked at the three old men with his eyes, and this time Juzhuang Weng stroked his palms and laughed: "This is called 'unavoidable'." ”

After that, everyone was amazed by his father, and Ju Zhuang Weng kept saying: "This son must have the best talent, it's amazing!" ”

My grandfather taught me to read, taught me to make poems, and told me to know the big end, and he didn't talk about some ancient books, so he just told me to bury my head in hard reading, saying what "read it, read it, and the ghosts and gods will be able to do it." ”

But the "Five Steps to Reading" he talked about really benefited me a lot when I was a child, and what to talk about "tasting its taste, understanding its reason, reaching its meaning, knowing its interest, and understanding its spirit." ”

But he was actually a little afraid that I would ask some weird questions, and sometimes I didn't talk about him, even my father was in pain.

One day, I asked my grandfather, "This Chinese Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism are all very good, but how do they connect with each other?" ”

My grandfather couldn't answer with his mouth open, and my father said, "Why do you children ask such profound questions?" ”

Grandpa waved his hand and said, "He is reasonable, I can't answer, you can come, remember, he is a child." If you want him to understand, he can't understand it. ”

My father was stunned for a while, and then patiently said to me: "Bo'an, let's chew the words, how to write this Confucian character?" Is it a person on the left, and a word on the right, that is to say, Confucianism is the most needed university question for being a person. ”

I saw my grandfather smiling beside me, and I said, "This Buddha is a person on the left, Buddha on the right, and the Buddha is not a person, a non-person, what does it mean?" ”

My father smiled and said: "This Buddhism explains that all the tangible world is empty and false after all, this is called the four major emptiness, and it is also the truth that your grandmother often recites in the Heart Sutra, "color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color", you understand, right?" ”

On a whim, I asked, "What about the Tao?" The middle is the head, the side is the walk, don't you walk with the head? ”

Grandpa laughed and looked at his father, who smiled slightly and said, "You are so naughty, but you are good, you see, the head, the head, the head, the wisdom, understand?" ”

I couldn't help but shout, "Wisdom walks the world." ”

My father nodded approvingly, "This is the true meaning of the Tao." ”

I only heard a cheer, and I don't know when the three old men also came, Ju Zhuang Weng said: "You haven't talked about Xiao Bo'an's problem yet?" Dehui. ”

My father arched his hand and said, "I have a summary, four sentences: 'Take Confucianism as the lineage of the law, Buddhism as the eye of the law, the sons as the Dharma Tibet, and the hundred schools of thought as the sea of law'. ”

Juzhuang Weng took the lead in applauding: "The momentum is magnificent, the weather is thousands, yes, Confucianism is based on benevolence and righteousness, and it is right to talk about the 'Dharma lineage', the core of Buddhism is to open the wisdom, and the 'Dharma Eye' is very well summarized for it, as for the 'Fazang' and 'Fahai' are said to be a great success!" ”

I was overwhelmed by my father's knowledge.

Early in the morning, my grandfather was very excited to tell me: "There is a contemporary Confucian today, you must pay a good visit to him." ”

As soon as the sun came out, I saw a middle-aged and elderly Confucian student in his fifties stepping into the gate of our Wang family, he was the contemporary Confucian Mr. Chen Baisha, he entered the door and saw the bamboo in the courtyard, and chanted a poem:

"The bamboo outside the window is green, and the person sitting alone in the window.

In the end, there are no two bamboos and people. ”

Chen Baisha smiled and said: "I look at heaven and earth, the sun and the moon are bright, the mountains and rivers are flowing, the four seasons are running, and all things are born, nothing more than ...... my extreme."

I couldn't help but step forward and salute, "Where should the Confucian Dao begin?" ”

After listening to my father's introduction to me, Chen Baisha smiled and touched my head and said, "Start with meditation, only through meditation can you make your heart clear and quiet, and then you can seek the clues of the Great Dao." ”

I was disappointed and said, "It's the same old thing again." ”

My father hurriedly pulled me away and asked for further advice, and Chen Baisha continued: "In order to learn, you must cultivate clues from meditation, and then there is a place to discuss. ”

The father asked, "What about from the perspective of 'understanding the body'?" ”

Chen Baisha said: "There is a son who says, 'The original is born and the Tao is born'. It is only through meditation that we can cultivate the clues and thus improve our self-cultivation is the way forward. ”

My father smiled and said, "Zen says, 'walk, walk, sit, lie down without leaving this', what do you say?" ”

Chen Baisha was stunned for a moment, and his father said: "The key is self-satisfaction. ”

Chen Baisha said: "Yes, if you want to seek the Tao, you must tacitly understand the supernatural powers, and you must be self-satisfied. ”

Mr. Chen Baisha spoke well, but I think he is a little inferior to my father, maybe his seriousness is not close to my lively personality!

followed, came a father and son surnamed Tang, very interesting, Tang's father is a businessman in Wu County, Suzhou Prefecture.

My grandfather treated people equally, but my father was different, because the society looked down on businessmen, and I was interested in that child, this child was called Tang Yinzi Bohu, he was two years older than me, a little quiet, but there was a bright look in his eyes.

Grandpa gathers the children of the guests together to take the exam.

The topic is to compose a poem or paint, and the friends all spread out the paper and ink, writing and painting on it, and I also went to join in the fun, I wrote a poem.

Everyone pasted their names with paper to prevent cheating, and the referee was four old men, and finally two pairs were selected, one poem and one drawing.

The poem was written by me, and the title of the poem is "Deyi Fu":

Seeing that one is not one or the other, the south and the north are the east and west.

The infinite scenery is in harmony with nature, and the dripping water is self-evident.
