Chapter 8: Can You Hold on to the Present?
One. There are no words in the night.
On the second day, when the morning light was reflected in front of the illusion with the bell of the Landa Temple, he had already gotten up, carefully arranging his monk's robe, as if he were tidying up a brocade robe, and ignoring the strange eyes cast by the void.
Personally took out the cold water from the well in the courtyard, and after washing, Illusory walked slowly to the main hall in front of him, calmly doing the morning class, so that all the other monks who saw him were stunned, but Illusory did not have any change in expression.
After the morning class, it was breakfast, and Unreal also quietly took a piece of gruel and a piece of bread, ate it very carefully, and then rearranged the monk's robe, turned around and strode towards the precept institute.
The Vinaya has always been an unpopular place in Landa Temple.
It's the same now, even if they know Unreal is going.
"Disciple Illusory, come and meet the elders of the Discipline Academy!" After the illusory finished speaking, he stood beside him without saying a word, and lowered his head with his hands folded.
The first seat of the Vinaya is actually not of high seniority, the first generation is the first generation than the illusory master asking the Dharma monk, but it is a monk of the same generation as the illusory, but because his age is older than the monk who asks the Fa, he seems mature and stable, which is also related to the fact that the precept institute of Landa Temple has always operated independently.
The Void Monk just glanced at the illusory lightly, then turned his gaze to the monk who asked the Dharma, and said lightly, "Ask Uncle Master, I don't think I need to repeat what happened to my nephew, even if you have what you said yesterday, but many things cannot be avoided, such as the reputation of my Landa Temple, such as the illusory junior brother who really did that kind of thing after all, as for whether the other party is a little lady of the Shen family, this has nothing to do with my Buddhist precepts!" ”
The monk didn't express his meaning, but just recited lightly, "Nan no Amitabha Buddha ......"
The void was standing behind the monk who asked the law, and at this time he did take a step forward and said, "Senior Brother Void, Senior Brother Illusory was framed by someone, maybe he was drugged?" ”
"Presumptuous!" The Void Monk frowned, didn't look at the void, just looked at the Monk who asked the Dharma, and asked very seriously, "Could it be that he was tempted by the illusion. There can be more confusion than my Buddha's disciple Ananda, why can Ananda stick to my Buddha's heart? If your Buddha nature is firm, even if you are red, it is just an old skin, a skeleton, how can you be tempted! ”
"After all, he's moved!" The Void Monk just said lightly.
The monk also nodded, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, the illusory heart is moving!" This is his calamity, and if you can't cross it, you just look at his own creation, and you continue to ...... it."
This is a kind of respect, the three major power centers of the entire Landa Temple, the presiding abbot asking the monk, the supervising monk asking the Dharma, and the void monk of the Vinaya Temple.
Now at the beginning, the monk who asked the law put on a posture that he had nothing to do with himself and asked Jun to handle it impartially, but it made the monk of nothingness feel stunned for a while.
It's not about power struggles.
It's just that as he said to the monk who asked the law, in fact, if there are precepts, it may not necessarily put people to death, but if it is the heart, the heart is moved, then it is the real catastrophe, and that is the real end of people's death.
Nothingness is essentially for the sake of illusory good.
But the same nothingness also knows that what the illusory inherits is the mantle of the monk who asks the law. And Qfa is the best candidate for the next presiding abbot. In a way, the unreal is the future of the next generation of Landa Temple. It's like the Great Xiangguo Temple Zhiqian is the leader of the next generation.
Illusory and Zhiqian are also well-known figures in this Tokyo Bianliang City, representing the future of Landa Temple and Daxiangguo Temple, although Daxiangguo Temple is a royal offering, but now the Shangguan family does worship Taoism and suppress Buddha.
If the illusory is really dealt with now, it will not only be irresponsible for the future of the Landa Temple, but also a huge punishment for the illusory.
But if you don't deal with it, this matter will be even more impossible to explain!
Now many people look at the Landa Temple, and what they want to see is nothing more than a result.
"Unreal, what else do you have to say?" The Void Monk saw that the Monk had no intention of coming forward, and he also sighed in his heart, but he asked straight up.
He thought that the monk would fight for his mantle disciples, but in fact, this matter was strange everywhere, and what the nihilistic monk wanted was just an attitude, and under the dispute, the punishment would naturally not be too heavy, so that the illusory would still have the point of redemption. It's just that now the monk who asked the Dharma suddenly became dumb, which made this matter a one-man show.
Unreal shook his head, still bowing his head, and didn't speak.
The Void Monk was stunned for a while, he didn't know what to say, but he looked at this pair of masters and apprentices with some tears and laughter, this is really not a family that does not enter the door, they both have such an attitude, this is a little difficult to do!
It's heavy, and the temple can't afford it.
Light, Landa Temple can't afford it.
However, as the head of the Precept Academy, the Void Monk still stood up on that seat after thinking about it, bowed slightly to the first presiding abbot to intercede with the monk, and said with his hands together, "Since this is the case, and the illusion has confessed, this matter is so decided,"
Speaking of this, the Void Monk paused, but after a while, the resolute look on his face made everyone feel a burst of heartbeat, and they heard the Void Monk continue, "The meaning of my precept is that the illusory offense is not lewd among the five precepts!" It is really a big sin, the six roots do not enter, the Buddha nature is unknown, our hospital decided to punish the rod for thirty years, expelled from our temple as a punishment! ”
Thirty ......
Expelled from our temple......
Hearing this punishment, everyone was stunned, you must know that this punishment is extremely serious. The rod blame here is not the rod blame of the yamen, but the real rod blame of the warrior monk, and there are not a few people who beat people to death with ten rods and twenty rods.
As for the expulsion from the Landa Temple, Illusory is an orphan, and he has been in the Landa Temple since he was born, so he is a monk who is registered with a degree, just like ordinary people have household registration, if Illusory is expelled from Landa Temple, then he is a person with no identity. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, a person with no identity, even if he was killed, there would be no substantial punishment, it was nothing more than the money to hand over some punishment, and it was not much, three times!
This void monk is ruthless enough!
If you don't hate, how can you be the first seat of this precept house?
At this time, the presiding abbot interceded with the monk and opened his eyes slightly, turned his gaze to the illusory, and just said lightly, "Do you live a long life, don't drink, can you hold it today?"
Illusory was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but put his hands together, knelt on the futon below, and said slowly, "Disciple Anzhi!" ”
"Do your best and don't lie, can you hold it today?"
"Disciple Anzhi!"
"If you don't steal and don't steal, can you hold it today?"
"Disciple Anzhi!"
"To the end of your life, not to be adulterous, can you hold it today?"
After the intercession monk asked this, there was a surprising silence, and the illusory did not answer, but just lowered his head.
"To the end of your life, not to be adulterous, can you hold it today?" The interrogating monk asked again, and when he saw the illusory, he still didn't answer, and there was no change in his expression, but he just thought to himself, "Do you live as long as you can, don't kill, can you hold it today?"
Unreal still lowered his head, clasped his hands together, and didn't say a word.
"If you live as long as you can, don't kill, can you hold it today?" The interrogating monk opened his eyes, looked at the illusion seriously, and then asked a question.
