"This ......" Zhang Cambodia pondered the other party's words, and suddenly, hearing the sound of "buzz, buzz", a bee vibrated its wings, and wanted to break the window and fly out of the meditation hall but could not find an exit, so it could only fly around the meditation hall.

Zhang Khan's heart suddenly struck, and he pointed to the flying elf and said to a certain Zen master: "Master, what do you think this is?" ”

Inside and outside Daishan Temple, peach red and willow green, a hundred flowers contend. When the flowers bloom, the fragrance is overflowing, and bees fly in flocks from all directions to compete with butterflies for pollen. Every year is true, and so is every year. For a certain Zen master, this is a commonplace scene, and now I saw Zhang Cambodia pointing to the bee and asking him, and replied directly: "This is a bee, it has a head and eyes, wings and needles, and it is no different from the bees picking flowers in the flower garden outside!" ”

Seeing that his answer was very shallow, Zhang Cambodia continued to ask: "Master, I didn't ask about the shape of this bee. I'm asking you, what is it doing? ”

The Zen master's eyes must be wandering, staring at the bees flying around, thinking for a while, but still replied calmly: "It's flapping its wings and flying." These bees not only collect pollen in the flower garden outside our temple, but also often fly into the meditation hall and fly around, which is strange and annoying. ”

Seeing that he still failed to realize the true meaning, Zhang Cambodia said: "Master, you only see the world by seeing things and saying things, and you can't go straight to the source of your heart. It's no wonder that you have been chanting for more than 30 years and are still trapped in the pile of old papers, and you can't go up a step in meditation and enlightenment. There is no doubt that there is a dense Zen machine hidden in Zhang Cambodia's words.

The Zen master must have frowned, his eyes fixed, and he carefully pondered what Zhang Khan was referring to: "You say that the poor monk only sees the world and talks about things, and fails to go straight to the source of his heart? ”

Zhang Cambodia pointed to the bee that was still touching the transparent gauze paper in the window, and his words were full of wit: "This bee, just like those of us who practice in the monastery, how do you think it can go to the vast world of freedom without being trapped in this meditation hall surrounded by four walls?" ”

The Zen master must have followed Zhang Cambodia's fingers and saw that the bee was "buzzing, buzzing" in the meditation hall, trying to fly to the outside world where a hundred flowers are contending, but he always bumped into the layer of transparent gauze paper pasted in the window. Undeterred, the bee flapped its wings and flew to the window on the other side, and slammed into the gauze again. It whirls left and right, trying many times, but it hits a wall back and forth, in vain, and cannot fly out to get close to the vast world outside, to get close to the lovely nature......

Seeing Master Certain's focused demeanor, Zhang Cambodia pointed to the bee, and then pointed to the layer of window paper, and raised his voice: "Look how diligent and busy this bee is, but he can't find a way out." It's just a thin layer of window paper from the world outside. ”

The Zen master must have played: "It's just a thin layer of window paper from the outside world?" ”

Zhang Cambodia walked to the window and gently poked the window paper with his index finger, and the window paper was pierced with a small hole.

"What do you mean by that?" The Zen master must have looked at it for some reason, only to see the bee flying out of the hole in the window paper and going to the flowers to collect honey.

Zhang Cambodia raised his voice: "You see, once this thin layer of window paper is pierced, it will be a new world for bees." In life, good and evil, good and bad, high and low, that is, the difference between a thought. Isn't the path of our meditation cultivation just like what we are looking for?! ”

Although Zhang Cambodia's words were short, they were as deafening as the thunder of Huang Zhong Dalu and the heavenly drum, which caused a strong resonance in the heartstrings of a certain Zen master. He was so stunned that his mouth opened wide and he couldn't close it for a long time. A spiritual light flashed in his mind, and he suddenly felt that his eyes lit up, he took the trouble to look at the green light and yellow scroll in this temple, and how much time and energy he spent to study and practice diligently, and to memorize and memorize, but he had never been so clear and clear now, and the realm in front of him was so open, and he suddenly felt that the whole meditation hall became bright.

Zhang Cambodia continued: "If you practice only by delving into the vast scriptures, interpreting those profound teachings, and abiding by those immutable practice norms, you can only become a bookworm. If you combine meditation with the present moment, this will activate the wisdom of life. When you are confused, you are carried by the Buddhist scriptures, and you can turn the Buddhist scriptures after you realize it! ”

The Zen master must have pondered the meaning of Zhang Cambodia's words, and the more he pondered, the more he tasted the connotation: "When you are confused, you are carried by the Buddhist scriptures, and you can turn the Buddhist scriptures after you realize it?" ”

Zhang Cambodia said loudly: "Why work hard to keep the precepts with a peaceful heart, and what is the use of practicing meditation when you are straight?!" One thought of practice, Dharma body and other Buddhas. If one thought is realized, all beings are Buddhas. ”

The Zen master must have heard Zhang Cambodia's direct teaching, and he was deeply touched: "Amitabha, the poor monk thought that after becoming a monk, he let go of all delusions, and he was already free of worries, and the six roots were pure. In the temple, I diligently recited the scriptures day and night, and for 30 years, I believed that by this way, I would be able to achieve positive results in the future and attain Bodhi, but in fact I was imprisoned. Today, the benefactor made the poor monks seem to see the glow of the lamp of meditation, illuminating the lost path; Let me brush away the clouds and fog barriers in front of me, and my confusion will be wide open, and I will see the past and the present. ”

Zhang Cambodia said humbly: "Master, don't hold me up so high, you must know that it is uncomfortable to fall from a high place!" ”

The Zen master must have known that he had met a master, and said sincerely: "Donor, in this Daishan Temple, those little monks have returned to the meditation room to rest, and now they are silent, only you and me." We might as well talk about the matter of entering the WTO and leaving the world, and it doesn't hurt to talk about it directly. ”

Zhang Cambodia: "One light can remove thousands of years of darkness, and one wisdom can extinguish ten thousand years of foolishness." The best way for a person's life to break off the suffering is not to be polluted by the hustle and bustle, and to cultivate the mind and nature. The Dharma is in the world, and it is not separated from the world. Leaving the world to find Bodhi is like asking for rabbit horns. The path to enlightenment is both physical and mental. The nature of oneself is pure, and one can become a Buddha when you see nature. ”

Zen Master: "Don't look at the poor monks living in the deep mountains and old forests, but over the years, there have been hundreds of wandering monks from all over the world who have visited Daishan Temple and Tianlu Temple, and they have brought wonderful stories such as the dispute between the government and the opposition outside, the changes in Buddhism, etc., to this silent mountain forest, so that I can also see the outside world." ”

Zhang Cambodia: "Really? ”

The Zen master must have said in a pious and admiring tone: "Don't say what is far away, just say what is near." Humanity is a wild and desperate region in Xinzhou, but there is also a great Confucian who has shocked the government and the opposition. ”

Zhang Cambodia had a vague premonition that the Zen master in front of him would continue to say something, and asked knowingly: "Confucianism?" Master, who are you talking about? ”
