Between Yin and Chou, the sky was bright, and people were still asleep, and the monks in the Ming Temple got up one after another, ready to welcome the arrival of this day. The monk www.biquge.info Jifang found a futon for Xuanyu and placed Xuanyu in a corner of the Heart Buddha Hall, and the center of the hall was the location of the monks. He, a layman, naturally can't sit down.

Xuanyu sat on top of the futon, ready to wait for the start of the morning class, and found that there were still two futons in this remote corner. I don't know if it's for someone else, or if it's discarded here.

"Knock, knock~"

After a short time, Xuanyu heard a grand and vast sound of ancient bells. Xuanyu counted it secretly, and it was exactly nine.

After these nine bells rang, the door of the Heart Buddha Hall remembered a drum sound. Xuanyu knew that there were monks beating the "monk's face drum".

The drums were loud, but they weren't irritating.

With the sound of drums, one by one the monks quietly entered the main hall.

Xuanyu didn't mean to get up to greet him, because this was the morning class of the Buddhist family, and the Buddhist family valued the equality of all beings. These things, Xuanyu already knew when he was in the Buddha realm.

The "monk's face drum" at the door sounded about half a pillar of incense, and at this time, the monks who were qualified to come to the main hall to do morning classes had already arrived.

On Xuanyu's side, there were also two people. Both of them covered their faces with white gauze, wore pale yellow monk's robes, their hair was tied up, and between their eyebrows and eyes, they should be women. Xuanyu guessed that one of the two should be Cai Wenji.

Congming Temple is the largest Buddhist temple in Luoyang, Cai Wenji was born in everyone, and he came here to avoid trouble, presumably his father Cai Yi had already arranged it. With the face of the Cai family, it is not difficult to let Cai Wenji take the morning class.

Xuanyu didn't observe the two women too much, but both of them looked at Xuanyu several times. I also feel it now, but now it's morning class time, Xuanyu has been used to it in the Buddha realm back then, and when it comes to this time, he has no distractions. Although it has been abandoned for many years, some things that have become in the bones are not so easy to forget.

The monks were dressed in sea green, chanting in unison in the heart Buddha hall, the abbot monk came to the scene in person, and there were dozens of monks who participated in the morning class.

Xuanyu didn't know the name of the abbot here, nor did he know his seniority, but it seemed that the abbot should be not young, and the seniority was estimated to be low. However, compared with Xuanyu's morning classmates in the Buddha world at that time, it must have been too far behind. Maybe this abbot can't even rank the tenth great-grandson.

The abbot sat cross-legged at the front of the statue of the Buddha of the Heart, and the low futon was also the largest, facing the crowd. There are two monks in the foreman, one is the Jifang master that Xuanyu saw just now, and the other Xuanyu doesn't know, but his status must not be low. The two of them, sitting at the front of all the disciples, meant the meaning of domination.

There are many who attack the Buddhist teachings on the equality of all beings. Looking at the seats of the monks, it is obvious that there is a hierarchy, and if you don't know Buddhism, you may have doubts about it.

Buddhism says that all beings are equal, and in the teachings of the Buddha-Heart, the equality of all beings is interpreted as the equality of all beings.

Xuanyu once asked the Buddha about this question, why did the Buddha say that all beings are equal, but there are high and low status in Buddhism?

Xuanyu still remembers that the Buddha replied to him like this:

"Are all beings equal in this world? In the eyes of the Buddha, all beings are equal, and equality in the world does not mean that there is only equality in the world. In addition to equality, there are also courtesy, righteousness, spring and autumn, five ways and so on. The attainer is the first, respect him as a teacher, and the teacher is the superior, which is a courtesy. The position of high and low in the religion is in line with etiquette, but can it be contrary to equality? Moreover, all beings in this world are not equal, their ambitions have not been fulfilled, and the rules have not been changed. ”

At first, Xuanyu didn't understand this sentence very well, but later on some things, especially during the time when he was the emperor in the God Realm, Xuanyu gradually understood.

Equality is always relative.

What's more, the current world is not equal in the first place.

Xuanyu got rid of distracting thoughts, and also recited the Heart Sutra with the monks, and there was a Sanskrit praise in the hall, which coincided with the recitation of the monks.

Xuanyu didn't have a scripture in his hand, but the content of the "Heart Sutra" Xuanyu had long been familiar with it, and he had no distractions in his heart, and he closed his eyes and concentrated on reciting the content of the "Heart Sutra". The woman covering her face on the side couldn't help but look sideways, she had been coming to the Ming Temple for almost a year, although she could also recite the Heart Sutra. But the content is so profound that if you can't understand it first, you won't be able to memorize it in the morning class. Needless to say, this woman is Cai Wenji.

That is, a few days ago, Cai Wenji was able to come to the morning class without scriptures. Looking at Xuanyu's attentive appearance, she never expected that the person next to her would have such profound knowledge of Buddhism. Looking at Xuanyu's appearance and bearing, she didn't look like a mortal, and Cai Wenji began to guess Xuanyu's identity in her heart. The other woman was holding the scriptures, and she also looked sideways frequently, looking at Xuanyu curiously, but her movements were very careful, for fear of being discovered by Xuanyu, but at this time, Xuanyu's body and mind were silent in the ocean of Buddha, and she had no heart to feel it at all.

It didn't take long for the "Heart Sutra" to be recited and Xuanyu knew that he would chant the "Great Compassion Mantra" together, and the "Heart Sutra" and "Great Compassion Mantra" were the foundation of the Heart Buddha. In every morning class, the monks also recited and chanted these two sutras repeatedly.

Xuanyu didn't open his eyes, listened to the Sanskrit sound, found the rhythm, and sang the Great Compassion Mantra when he opened his mouth. Cai Wenji on the side glanced at Xuanyu in surprise, and Xuanyu actually spoke with the abbot master just now.

You must know that Zen singing is different from ordinary singing, which contains an understanding of the Buddha's meaning. Like Cai Wenji, every time she sings the Great Compassion Mantra in Zen, she seems to be slow to react, and it is someone else who has already sung several sentences before Cai Wenji suddenly speaks. This is actually not because Cai Wenji is distracted, but because her understanding of the Buddha's meaning is still far behind, so she will be slow to react.

However, this is not a problem for Xuanyu for a long time.

Xuanyu's understanding of the "Great Compassion Mantra" is much higher than that of the "Heart Sutra", and even Xuanyu can not exaggerate to say that none of the monks present have a deep understanding of Xuanyu.

As time passed, Cai Wenji frequently looked at Xuanyu, and even sometimes sang wrongly. Fortunately, the three of them were in the corner of the main hall, and no one found them.

Perhaps feeling embarrassed, Cai Wenji stopped peeking at Xuanyu, and closed her eyes and began to concentrate on chanting the Buddha.

At this time, Xuanyu seems to have returned to the time when he listened to the lecture under the seat of the Emperor Buddha of the Relic, the Emperor Buddha sat on it, and there were Buddhas beside him, and the light of the Buddha was all over the sky, reflecting each other.

In the corner of the main hall, a Buddha light slowly lit up.

Cai Wenji, who was closest to Xuanyu, widened her eyes and looked at Xuanyu incredulously.

I saw Xuanyu at this time, and a golden lotus with brilliant golden light held up Xuanyu and flew seven feet into the air, with endless Buddha light flashing around her body.

"Nam-no, Drink Rak-na, Dora-yaya, Nam-no, A-yaya, Bharukati, Shrou Bowl Yoya, Bodhisattva Bharvaya, Mahasattva Bharaya, Maha, Kalu Nigaya, Om, Sa Sara Punishment Drag, Shā Nam-na, Sigi Riga, Imamona Agaya, Bhalugi Dhi, Muro-Buddha Rak-ra-pha, ......"

At this time, the Xuanyu treasure is solemn, like a true ancestor of Buddhism. The mouth whispered the great compassion mantra, and it actually formed a Buddha lotus all over the ground.

This vision, even many monks in Congming Temple couldn't help but look sideways.

At this time, you can see whose Dharma cultivation is high or low, and the abbot master still closes his eyes and sings, not disturbed by Xuanyu at all. But some, if not most, of the monks were reciting the Great Compassion Mantra in their mouths, but their minds were on Xuanyu. They were amazed and wondered why this lay benefactor had such Buddhist attainments.

Still, they underestimated Xuanyu.

A moment later, something even more unbelievable happened.

I only listened to the Heart Buddha statue behind the abbot, and there was a roaring sound.

The monks looked at the Buddha statue of the Heart Buddha in a daze, and hurriedly bowed. Cai Wenji on the side was still a little confused, and she couldn't understand what was going on. After listening carefully for a while, she suddenly discovered that the huge Buddha statue in front of the main hall was actually chanting the Great Compassion Mantra, and the rhythm was the same as Xuanyu!

"Po Luli. Lu Jiadi. Garodi. Sigh. Mahabodhisattva, Sabha. Molamo, Molamo, Pregnancy. Kulu Kulu, Kamon. Dulu Dulu, Punish Jayadi. Maha punished Jayati. Tuo Tuo Tuo ......"

At this time, even the abbot master was no longer calm, and looked at Xuanyu in horror.

Now everyone can't tell whether Xuanyu is singing or the Buddha is reading, the two voices are intertwined, and they seem to merge into one, and they can't tell each other.

Gradually, the Heart Buddha statue stopped making a sound, but Xuanyu still chanted the Great Compassion Mantra again. Moreover, Xuanyu's figure rose higher and higher, and the Buddha light around her body became more and more prosperous. The Buddha lotus is all over the ground, both illusory and beautiful. The monks hurriedly held their breath and contemplated, experiencing the artistic conception at this time.

This is a rare opportunity to practice.

The hall full of Buddha's intentions, Xuanyu sat high in the air, as if he was lecturing for sentient beings.

At this time, another woman also sat concentratingly, not looking at the Buddhist scriptures in front of her, but concentrating on running the exercises in her body to eliminate some hidden diseases in her heart. The light of Buddhism is the most conducive to practice. At this time, the Buddha light of Xuanyu made the woman forget the uneasiness in her heart.

On the other hand, Cai Wenji, she doesn't practice, and she is not a real Buddhist cultivator, she is just amazed by this vision, but she doesn't know how to cherish this opportunity. It's like watching a lively person, staring at Xuanyu blankly.

"Katsukaro Night. Suo Po He. Nan Wu, Drink Raktana, Doro Night, Nan Wu, Ah Yaye. Po Yao Ji Di. Shimmering Night. Suo Po He. Om, Siddhandu. Mando. Bhadhaya, Subhaha."

The Great Compassion Mantra is not a scripture, but a mantra, and the whole text is not long, and before you know it, Xuanyu will read it to the end.

But it was these last few sentences that suddenly changed.

I saw that Xuanyu, who was sitting firmly in Gao Lian, suddenly turned red, and the golden Buddha light around her body began to become uncertain, and there was a sense of crumbling.
