Chapter 52: Wang Xuance Asks the Buddha Relics and Guma Sincerely Responds (Part II) (Page 1/1)
"Haha, General Zhou's words are very straightforward, and that's what the little monk meant. Because many of the five religions in India are derived from the Vedas, and most of the teachings are the same and understandable, through this debate, it is natural that there will be one and the other, and in the end, they will come together and become a sect. And in your Chinese land is obviously different, your Confucianism, Taoism, plus the Buddhism that has been passed down in our five Indias over the years, are all derived from different classics, and tell different lifestyles and philosophies of life, so there is not much interference between them, and your Tang Dynasty is a unified whole, unlike our five Indias, falling apart, your unity will also promote the development of Buddhism, so you can rest assured that Buddhism will shine in your Tang Buddha." This Kumoriro said this to them with joy.
Listening to his reply, coupled with the fact that we have understood the relationship between Buddhism and Brahmanism, and the reasons for the growth of one or the other. Wang Xuance also deeply understood that all this was not available in Datang, so Datang provided fertile soil for Buddhism to grow. I couldn't help but think of another purpose of this trip, to pay homage to this Buddha relic, so I also wanted to ask him what he thought about this matter, so I asked him again: "I don't know what the master thinks of the Buddha's relics in front of the supreme sacred relics of Buddhism?" To tell the truth, it is precisely because this Buddhism is flourishing in my Tang Dynasty that I waited for the third time to send an envoy to your country, precisely to pay homage to this Buddha relic, and never thought that this Buddha finger relic and this Buddha parietal bone relic have disappeared. ”
"Every religion has its own holy relics, and this relic is an indestructible holy relic that was conjured up after the Buddha's death. As a pagan, it is naturally difficult to comment on how powerful the relic's wish is. But what I've learned about Buddhism over the years is that it's really a desirable way. After all, any religion needs a realistic carrier, which can not only increase people's feelings for the Lord God, but also increase the original intention of goodness. No matter what kind of religion it is, as long as it is not a cult, it should educate people's hearts and teach them to be good. So I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Although this Buddha relic disappeared when you came, from a psychological point of view, it is definitely not hidden by some people, but through some secret means, it is flowing to a certain place, waiting for the person to worship him to appear. ”
Hearing his words, Wang Xuance was also stunned, and asked casually: "Why did the master say that?" ”
"This Buddhist holy relic, people who believe in Buddhism, will naturally treat each other diligently, even if they don't believe in Buddhism, but in the face of such a hard thing, it is impossible to destroy it at present. There is a saying in Buddhism that this Buddha's relics will never be dusty, but will only go to the place where the Dharma is flourishing. Since this Buddha relic has not been seen in our five India for a while, and Wang Changshi and others have been looking for it for a long time in our five Indias, I think it is very likely that he will come to your Tang Dynasty. By the way, at the same time, I would like to explain that this matter is definitely not what my Brahmanism is called, because our way of debating is only to knock down the other party from philosophical ideas and theories, not to suppress it in this way, and this or two Buddhist treasures, even if they are gone, it is impossible for Buddhism to be fundamentally defeated, so please Wang Changshi relax his mind. I, a disciple of Brahmanism, despise this kind of behavior. But when he saw this, Kumoriro said to them casually.
Hearing Kumoriro's affirmative reply, coupled with Wang Xuance's scrutiny and cognition of this Brahmin patriarch, he got acquainted with Chen Maocai, and saw that Chen Maocai also nodded. So the thought of the Buddha's relics being destroyed by the Brahmans was ruled out in his mind, but where did it go? I really hope that I can explain to Kumarila that the Buddha's relics are walking in the direction of the Tang Dynasty......
"Before I met the master, I was still wondering why a fierce and aggressive person like you could just make a swing at this Kaye Temple, then leave, and then reappear again. Today, I heard your high-level arguments, coupled with this careful speculation, and finally understood the reason," Wang Xuance said to Kumori with a happy face.
This sentence suddenly made this Kumoriro feel curious: "Oh, I don't know why? Would you like to hear Wang Changshi tell me why? ”
"Haha, it is precisely because the master is not a competitive and aggressive person, and is only willing to conquer the other party from this theory, seeing that this Kanoji Temple refuses behind closed doors, you already have a general idea. Actually, the master of Kano Temple, Master Xingming, also knew this very well, and when I talked to him, he also understood that the debate would not be able to defeat you, so he made this decision. Wang Xuance told the truth.
"Master Xingming is also a monk who has attained the Tao, and the little monk also admires his character very much, I think that although I only had a relationship with him back then, but his words and deeds make me remember it in my heart," Kumoriro said along with his words.
Thinking back to the conversation just now, coupled with this Kumori Liluo's good speech, I felt that he not only knew a lot about the history and customs of the Tang Dynasty, but also had a clear understanding of the various monks of the Five Indians, so he asked curiously again: "I don't know the master, why do you know so much about the great monks and the customs and customs of my Tang Dynasty?" ”
"Haha, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can survive a hundred battles This should be the words on your "Art of War", in fact, this sentence is very correct. Only by understanding a person can we know where the person's weaknesses are, and only by having a clear outline of the person can we know that it is his shortcomings in that aspect, and we can hit it with one blow. And this is also something that the little monk has often paid attention to over the years. Kumoriro replied.
"In this world, how can there be so many enemies, and the reason for the emergence of enemies is not only not to see through the world, but also to not see the essence of things. All these great monks understood this, so we were only friends, not enemies. It is only because there is a gap between the two factions in terms of righteousness, and in order to maintain the authority of one faction, that such a last resort is possible."
Listening to such profound words attracted Wang Xuance and others to nod and praise......
No matter what, if you want to develop proudly and vigorously in some places, you need a foundation, and this foundation is the support and support of the people. It is a pity that since Kumarila opened this introduction, Buddhism in the land of five India, there has never been a monk like Xuanzang, such as Master Jiexian, with more than a hundred years later, the emergence of Shangluo, Buddhism completely in the land of five India, was absorbed and developed into Hinduism by Brahmanism......
Despite this, Buddhism spread across the land of China, spreading to Japan, Korea, South Korea and other countries, and gaining its own popular base, and then becoming one of the three major religions in the world.
