Fifty-Three: The Crowd Wanders to the Vaishali The Abbot Comes From Here (Part II) (Page 1/1)
At the same time, the Vimala Sutra uses the incredible method to dissolve all contradictions, which affects Zen thought, Zen enlightenment, and public case sharpness. Zen Buddhism regards the Vimala Sutra as one of the sutras, and the only way to deal with the world, eliminating all opposites, so as to obtain the infinite transcendence of life and freedom. Among the many non-dual methods of the Vimala Sutra, the two that have had the greatest influence on Zen Buddhism are the two that have had the greatest influence on Zen Buddhism. Vima Fuji Zen Machine, in addition to the methodology of cutting Kudzu vine, has the greatest influence on Zen Buddhism, which is the realm theory of existence and transcendence. This is mainly manifested in the purity of the mind, the purity of the Buddha's land, the practice of meditation while desired, the dyeing of everywhere without staining, and the birth of the mind without dwelling.
Therefore, the influence of this scripture on future generations is quite far-reaching, and this is also the reason why Wang Xuance and others visited this Vimalaya's former residence this time. As everyone had a deeper understanding of the Vimalaya monks, they saw that Wang Xuance took the three incense sticks handed over by Chen Maocai, and after carefully lighting them, he sincerely saluted.
After the salutation of the stupa, this Kumarila led them to the ashram next to the stupa. It's not very large, it's just one house, and it's made of stones. I saw this Chen Maocai casually asked: "Is this house where the Vimalaya monk lived back then?" ”
"Indeed, although Vimalaya was rich back then, his life was still very simple, and this was left to the house, which was his bedroom back then?" Kumoriro replied.
"How big is this house, it does look quite small," Chen Maocai said casually when he looked at this small house.
When Wang Xuance heard this, he was also very curious, and he understood that this famous sage had outstanding features, and he had seen everything very thoroughly, so it was enough to have such a place to shelter from the wind and rain. So he smiled and said, "In that case, then I will use this wat board to measure it." ”
But when he saw him, he immediately took out the wat board used by the court, and measured it carefully from the east end of the house to the west end, and counted it as a total of ten wats; And then from the south to the north, it is also ten wats. Because he was square and upright, and he was a zhang in the Tang Dynasty, he replied casually: "It's really an abbot's room!" ”
Hearing the name of this abbot's room, this Kumorira rolled his eyes like this, and said to them: "This Vimalaya layman's bedroom, to this day we are still called like this, and we have never had an elegant name, I never thought that Wang Changshi casually said that this is the abbot's room, not only the size is appropriate, the name is also quite elegant, I think it is better to call this abbot's room in the future, what do you think?" ”
Hearing his proposal, Wang Xuance was also quite happy, and watched everyone nod their heads in agreement and praise again and again, so this abbot's room was only called the bedroom of this Vimalay monk in the Tang Dynasty.
However, history is so interesting, with the passage of time, the passage of events, and the fact that this Vimalaya is such a noble person, and among this abbot, there is an all-encompassing and all-encompassing person. Therefore, the living room of the temple master in many temples was also called the abbot's room, and later, with the spread of the name, the temple owner of a temple was also called the abbot. Therefore, the word abbot was born because of Wang Xuance and Wang Xuance. Since then, the word abbot has appeared on the land of China......
After the view of the former residence of the Vimalaya monk was completed, this Kumarila led them to see the right fruit of the relic. This relic is the fruit of the year after the king of the Vaishali country shared the relics, in here respectfully enshrined, according to the previous historical records, there was a relic here at that time, in the period of the King of Sanssouci, once opened the tower to take out nine buckets, only one bucket was left. Later, the king wanted to open the tower and take out the relics, but when the construction was about to start, it caused the anger of the heavens and the people to complain, and an earthquake occurred, so the matter was stopped.
After viewing the fruitfulness of the relic, they came to a stupa not far from it. This stupa was when Nyorai was about to go to Nirvana in the country of Kushnajra. People and non-humans alike followed him, stopping here to watch. And in the place corresponding to this stupa, there is also a stupa, which is where the Buddha left this Vaishari city and looked back.
After viewing the two ruins, Kumarila led them to another stupa not far away. But when I saw this pagoda, it was taller and more solemn than the other Buddhas. But this week, I casually asked like Kumariro, "I don't know what is the story of this pagoda, Master?" ”
"This pagoda tells the story of repaying kindness, called the Thousand Buddha Bunsen Pagoda." Kumariela then returned to them.
"I have heard this Master Xuanzang say, this Buddhism only has this past Buddha, the present Buddha and the future Buddha, I don't know how there is a story of a thousand Buddhas?" Chen Maocai asked him with a little doubt.
"Master Xuanzang is right, but what he said is too general. According to the teachings and main ideas of Buddhism, 1,000 Buddhas were born in these three lifetimes. And the stage we are in is the stage of this present Buddha, that is, the Buddha. Of the 1,000 Buddhas this time, the first eight tribulations were the births of the Buddhas. At the time of the ninth tribulation, there was a Buddha, called the Buddha of the Detention Sun, the first of the thousand Buddhas, the second of the Buddha of Kannahamuni, the second of the Buddha of the Buddha, the Buddha of the present day is the Buddha Shakyamuni, and then the birth of Maitreya, and the advent of the nine hundred and ninety-four Buddhas, a total of one thousand Buddhas......"
Hear him say so. But seeing that this week, Zeng folded his hands and said to Kumarila with a smile on his face: "I never thought that the master, who is the patriarch of this Brahmanical sect, would study the history of Buddhism so thoroughly. ”
"General Zhou has won the award, the little monk, as a believer in Brahmanism, has the responsibility to protect this Brahmanism, so only by knowing more things, knowing more about some problems, can he be targeted" between the words, but seeing this Kumori Luo also returned with his hands folded.
"Master, since this is the case, how about you explain to me the story of this stupa and the story of this thousand Buddhas?" Wang Xuance also said to Kumori with a sense of joy......
Seeing that everyone had pricked up their ears and were ready to listen to their own story, the Kumorira paused and said to them the story of this stupa......
