As the uncovered assembly began, the ceremonial officer sang loudly, "Please sit down with the king of the Holisha Empire (the king of the sun) and the master of the precepts."

Because the two of them were the decision-makers of this uncovered assembly, after the ceremonial officer sang, the two of them sat down peacefully under this golden Buddha.

After they sat down, the ceremonial officer sang loudly: "Please upgrade Xuanzang of Shamen of the Tang Dynasty"

At this time, Master Xuanzang politely sat down under the two of them, on a lotus platform three zhang away.

After Master Xuanzang ascended to the throne, the ceremonial officer sang loudly: "Please protect the kings"

Therefore, the kings of the ranks, including Alonashun, the old kings of Sam and many countries, and the queen of Raja Sri of the other countries, sat on the bright yellow futon prepared in advance, and guarded Master Xuanzang in the center in a semi-circle shape.

Then the ceremonial officer sang, "Please sit on the floor."

So many eminent monks, Brahmanical patriarchs, and many believers all sat curled up in the great flower forest under the kings and Master Xuanzang. And Wang Xuance and others, as envoys of the Tang Kingdom, naturally sat in the best position to observe the ceremony.

From a distance, today's big flower forest is not only full of flowers, but also orderly, on this huge lawn, the believers are in accordance with the pattern of ten people in a line, ten lines of a phalanx, orderly extension backwards, and this golden Buddha is also under the sun, interpreting this endless light.

Looking at such a grand scene, but listening to the King of the Ring Sun with a happy face, he announced loudly to all the believers: "I announce that the debate will officially begin, and I invite Master Xuanzang to announce the thesis!" ”

Therefore, Master Xuanzang was upright and upright, and announced his thesis word by word: "The truth is extremely beautiful, and it is not separated from the eye; Since Xu Chu three shots, the eyes do not take the reason; It's like vision. ”

Translated into the vernacular, this sentence is popularly to mean that the objective world cannot be separated from subjective consciousness. In other words, what Master Xuanzang means today is that let's debate the issue of the objective world and subjective consciousness.

After listening to Master Xuanzang's speech, I saw Master Jiexian follow his words and announced: "The master of this association, Master Xuanzang of Shamen of the Tang Dynasty, declares the public with the Mahayana Buddhism "True Consciousness", and solicits debates from all sects of Zhu throughout the day, and within the next 18 days, if anyone can break this thesis, Shamen Xuanzang is willing to behead the prime minister. ”

At the suggestion of the King of the Ring, a group of officials immediately copied the paper and posted it inside and outside the venue, so as to facilitate the participation of commentators from all walks of life.

I saw Master Xuanzang sitting on the lotus platform, and from time to time some monks from different schools came to challenge under the instructions of the king. With his superb Buddhism and the understanding he has felt and realized in Tianzhu for so many years, Master Xuanzang will be discerned one by one under the main teachings of "The Theory of the Land of Yogis", "The Theory of Enlightenment" and "The Theory of True Enlightenment"!

In fact, this debate is not about eloquence, but about the understanding of Buddhist teachings, the perception of Buddha nature, and the guidance of ideology. I only saw monks of various schools of thought, arguing about the subtlety, which is called the theory of consciousness and idealism. This has been the case for eighteen consecutive days, and under the painstaking meditation of many Tianzhu monks, Master Xuanzang has still not been discerned.

This scene not only made the King of Jieri look at this monk with admiration, but also made Master Jiexian admire this disciple. Wang Xuance, as an envoy of the Tang Kingdom, and Chen Maocai, Zhou Zeng and others, although they are not very clear about the arguments and arguments of these debates, but when they saw Master Xuanzang refute the monks one by one and lead the group, he was also deeply impressed by Master Xuanzang's wit and practical skills.

In these eighteen days, because no one justified Master Xuanzang, this was naturally Master Xuanzang's victory. With the end of the debate, the kings of Buddhism in various countries, as well as the monks, all threw themselves on this monk from the Tang Kingdom in the Eastern Soil.

Of course, with the end of the debate, the task belonging to Master Xuanzang has also come to a successful conclusion. Through this debate, all parts of Tianzhu have a deeper understanding of the teachings of Buddhism, and there is a deeper implementation of the idea of unifying Tianzhu Buddhism by the king of the precept day. Therefore, there are many people who rejoice.

Although there are many people who are happy, Brahmanism, which is quite disdainful of Buddhism, seems to be very unoptimistic about this Master Xuanzang. These days, in the debate, Wang Xuance also often observes the king of the country of Vilochauna, Alonashun, and every time Master Xuanzang discerns others, he always casts a jealous look. In the middle, he also repeatedly signaled his Brahmin monks to come to debate the scriptures, but unfortunately, they were defeated by Master Xuanzang. Therefore, he could only stare at his monk helplessly with vicious eyes, and motioned for him to get out of here as soon as possible, so as not to be embarrassed here. provoked, Wang Xuance and the members of the Tang Dynasty delegation secretly laughed.

Will things end so easily? The answer, of course, is no......

Confucianism emphasizes the inherent goodness of human nature, Taoism expounds that goodness is like water, and Buddhism pursues the equality of all beings. It is precisely because of the pursuit in life that there is competition, but when there is competition, some people take the wrong path, and there is good and evil, good and bad.

The world is the same, and the world is not only the belief of the king of the sun; It is the common idea of all the heroes of the seventh century. And it is precisely because of this belief that I can't help but let the religion, which was originally a religion that educates people's hearts, gradually go to the devil's path and enter the road of no return for the sake of profit and fame and fortune.

This unprecedentedly grand occasion shocked everyone; This shock is not only reflected in the hearts of many Buddhist believers; It is also reflected in the depths of the hearts of many Brahmans.

It is precisely because of this uncovered conference that not only invited the five great monks of Tianzhu; And also invited a number of famous Brahmanical patriarchs; Among them, this Rocho Pota is also invited.

This man was the famous head of the Brahmanical sect of the kingdom of Virakhana, and had a very good relationship with Armitta, the wife of Aronashun. He has always been regarded as a spiritual mentor by Almita, and he obeys his words. And the 500 Brahmins brought by Aronashun this time were under his rule.

On top of this uncovered assembly, I watched the disciples all defeat under this Master Xuanzang; Although he was also eager to try, he could only regret that he had never been able to discern Master Xuanzang's strong assertions, coupled with cherishing his reputation.

In addition, this uncovered conference is a grand event of Buddhism, although Buddhism and the teachings of Buddhism are clear, but after all, there is a distinction between priority and subordination, so they are slightly neglected. So, this kind of dissatisfaction, and full of anger, suddenly surged into the heart of this narrow-minded Rocho Botuo.

The story began in his heart......

Knowledge: "Breaking the Mahayana Theory" was also controversial in Indian Buddhism at that time, among which the Theravada Buddhist commentator, Prajna Yuduo, in order to promote Hinayana Buddhism, wrote this Breaking Mahayana Theory, at that time in the five Indians, no one could discern it. Later, after Master Xuanzang checked it in many ways, he wrote more than 1,600 words of "Views on Controlling Evil", and since then, Master Xuanzang has become famous in India. It is a pity that this theory of evil has been lost.
