Chapter 173: The Way of the Buddha or the Buddha of the Dao
The host nodded slightly, turned to Liu Tingting and smiled kindly, and said, "The donor is kind at first sight, welcome to our temple." ”
Liu Tingting saluted and said: "The host master is serious, and it is the honor of my life to be fortunate to come to see the light of the gods and Buddhas." ”
The host smiled slightly, nodded slightly, and said, "The donor is a good life, if you have some free time, please sit on your knees and discuss the mystery together." After speaking, he sat down on the mat.
Liu Tingting said: "Thank you for hosting the master." Sitting on the mat of the relative host, he said to the yin and yang twins: "Please go and wait outside the temple first." The Yin and Yang Twins walked out of the temple with a voice. Yaojia also sat cross-legged on another mat next to Liu Tingting, listening to the two talking.
The host said: "Dare to ask where the donor is coming from and where is he going?"
Liu Tingting said: "From Dali country, I returned to this place, and the path of Baosha came to worship and express my sincere gratitude. ”
The host nodded slightly and smiled, and said: "Dali respects the Buddha and respects the Tao, and is known as the country of incense, famous far and wide, and admires left and right. Nowadays, it is rare for a virtuous ruler to rule the world, prosper, and return to his heart inside and outside. ”
Liu Tingting said: "King Yalongjue is also talented and strategic, so that the territory is prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is also rare. ”
The host smiled slightly and asked, "Does the donor believe in Buddhism or Taoism?"
Liu Tingting said: "The younger generation believes in Buddhism. ”
The host looked puzzled and asked, "Isn't it unfaithful to believe both?"
Liu Tingting said: "The Tao is yin, the Buddha is yang, the chaos of heaven and earth is beginning to open, and the two qi of yin and yang come out of the same source." The deepest part of the Tao is nothingness, transcendence, and nature. The top of the Buddha is the four great emptiness, and it is also extraordinary, universal to all sentient beings, and the achievement of the true body. Both come from the same source, and return is also the same source. The origin of the two is one, but the method of returning to the origin is different, and the different paths are the same. Since they are of the same origin and do not distinguish between each other, faith is faith in Buddhism, and belief in Buddha is belief in Buddhism. ”
The host said with a smile: "The old man has been participating in Zen for decades, but he has not been able to understand it thoroughly, and he has a deep understanding after listening to the words of the little benefactor." The little donor said that the Buddha is the yang, but the sun?" he said "the sun" here refers to the sun.
Liu Tingting shook her head and said: "The Buddhist scriptures say 'the Buddha increases its brilliance', the Buddha is by no means the sun, the yang is strong and strong, and the Buddha is omnipresent and is beyond the reach of the sun, so Buddhism is prosperous and will exist forever in the Three Realms." ”
The host was delighted, nodded and smiled: "That being the case, the Buddha and the Tao, which one is one?"
Liu Tingting said: "The Tao is natural, unpredictable, and meticulous. The Dharma is boundless, strong and everywhere. If yin and yang are determined, the Tao is one, and the Buddha is two. In terms of Pudu, the Buddha is one, and the Tao is two. If the chaotic heavenly theory, the Tao and Buddha come out together, in no particular order, no matter how high or low, they are the same. All things in the world are born of yin and yang, one cannot be lost, and the younger generation believes that there is no distinction between high and low, no distinction between high and low, and the same is one. ”
The host said: "There are narrow people who say: the Buddha purifies all sentient beings, and the Taoist returns to the wilderness to cultivate himself alone, although he can transcend the world, he cannot purify all sentient beings, which is far less than the Buddha's broad kindness." The old man thought for a long time, and he didn't know what the little donor thought?"
Liu Tingting said: "The Buddha is yang, the yang is warm, and the warm is kind." Compassion is the embrace, the universal sentient beings, and the Buddha becomes its boundless one. Therefore, it is said that the Buddha, the Dharma, knows the Dharma, integrates it with reason, and uses the way of Dapu to save all sentient beings. The Taoist, the yin, the yin, the mysterious, the mystical is natural. The natural one is mysterious and mysterious, and the one who reaches the extreme can become its nature, and the one who becomes its nature is also infinite. The Taoist, the virtue also, the individual cultivation into itself, the cultivation of others, can also achieve the world's virtue. The world is united with the heart, the expression is the action, and the heart and action are united, and respecting the Tao and virtue is also the universal sentient beings. The visible and invisible universality are both universal, and they are all meticulous, and those who are merciful and compassionate are not distinguished from each other, regardless of the high bottom, and even more broad. The narrow-minded naturally do not understand the reason, only know what the eyes see, and do not understand the formlessness of the mind, so it is not surprising that there is such a statement. ”
The host nodded and smiled: "The little donor has a good opinion, and the old man has been taught." ”
Liu Tingting said: "The host has won the award, and the younger generation is speculating, and I dare not be ashamed." However, the younger generation does have something to understand, and I hope the host can guide the maze. ”
The host said: "The donor said that it is okay. ”
Liu Tingting said: "A few years ago, the younger generation met a team of samurai armed with gears and blades in my country, and almost mistook them for the masters of your temple. ”
The host was slightly stunned, and said with an embarrassed smile: "The lamas of our temple practice martial arts are aimed at strengthening the body and having no quarrel with the world. A few years ago, there were indeed a few disciples in our temple, and the Buddha nature was not pure, and they did not listen to humility to prevent the temple from going out of the mountain. So far, there is no news, I don't know if I went to Dali, I don't know where I am now?"
Liu Tingting was fully released and said: "Presiding over compassion, thinking of brothers and sisters, and admiring the younger generations." However, everything is predetermined, everything is natural, there is no need to think too much, do not need to think too much. Those who come come come from themselves, those who go go by themselves, those who can achieve their achievements do not need to be bitter, and those who become losers are also in vain in many Buddhist scriptures. ”
The host seemed to hear the meaning of Liu Tingting's words, got up and looked at the statue of Princess Wencheng, and said, "What the donor said is extremely true. ”
Liu Tingting got up and looked at the statue of Princess Wencheng, and then fell into deep thought. Yaojia didn't understand the meaning of what the two said, although Liu Tingting got up and looked around.
The host also pondered a little, looked at Liu Tingting, pondered a little and said: "Princess Wencheng came to the barren land of Tubo from the prosperous Tang Dynasty. ”
Liu Tingting thought: "The princess has traveled thousands of miles for the people of Li, and she is kind and kind, and she is famous all over the world. The master was victimized by Mo Chengxi, and the culprit was only because it was Mo Chengxi, not the entire Xuanmo Palace. Now leading 5,000 men and horses to attack Xuanmo Palace will inevitably destroy the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and war is inevitable. At that time, how many lives will be ruined, all because of my own personal grudges, which does not conform to the righteousness of the Great Dao and does not conform to the aspirations of my heart. But how can the master's order be ignored, and what should be done?" After pondering for a while, when she thought of talking to the reverse heaven in the back garden, she once said, "Master rest assured, Ting'er will definitely be able to capture Mo Chengxi and bring him to the master for a deep investigation." Then he thought, "The master did not refute my words, so I assumed that he had agreed to my request." Her sentence inadvertently tampered with the intention of going against the sky to exterminate the Xuan Mo Palace, and changed it to just capture Mo Chengxi. Thinking of the meaning of these words, he just captured Mo Chengxi, and had no intention of killing Xuan Mo Palace. In this way, we can avoid a large-scale conflict between the two religions, and avoid the situation between the two countries, which will harm innocent people and affect the two countries of Tibet and Dali. And against the sky did not refute her words at the time, and if she did not refute her, it should be recognized by the god, which is exactly what she wants.
She bowed to the host and said, "It is an honor for the younger generation to be able to talk freely with the master, and in the joy of forgetting the time, I took my leave first." ”
The host said: "I am willing to stay with the donor for a few days, and the old man still has many catechnots to study with the donor. ”
Liu Tingting said: "Don't dare, don't dare." The younger generation is indeed in a hurry, and he will definitely choose a good day to visit the temple in the future. ”
The host nodded slightly and said, "That's very good, the donor goes all the way!"
Liu Tingting turned around and walked out of the temple of Princess Wencheng, Yaojia also bowed to the host, withdrew from the temple, and invited the Yin and Yang twins to go down the mountain and walk towards the ancient city.
Yin Danzi asked curiously: "Girl, what did the old lama tell you, why did you talk about it for so long?"
Yang Danzi was also curious and asked, "That's it, that's it, did you hide any good wine and secretly drink it with you?"
Yaojia said coldly: "Nonsense, do you think that my sister is like you to rare those broken wines." ”
Yin Danzi sarcastically said: "What the little girl said is right, do you think that the kid is also a drunkard like you, and he only thinks about eating and drinking Lazar wherever he goes." ”
Yang Danzi smiled: "I eat and drink, you Lasa, I am the mouth, you are the ass, and all you put in your mouth is waste." ”
Yin Danzi said angrily: "Fart......"
Yang Danzi smiled: "It really stinks!"
Yin Danzi was furious, pulled out his sickle, and scolded: "Lao Tzu's hands are itching a lot these days, you are trying to find a fight." ”
Yaojia scolded: "Hurry up and put it away, this is not Dali Kingdom, I was caught by the Tubo soldiers, and my sister and I don't care about you." ”
Yang Danzi said proudly: "That's it, that's it, the guy with the rat belly and chicken intestines." ”
Yaojia glanced at Yang Danzi and said, "You are similar, you think about eating and drinking all day long, really." ”
Yin Danzi laughed, withdrew the sickle, and said, "That's it, that's it, it's still fair for the little girl." ”
Yang Danzi snorted, glanced at Yin Danzi, and ran forward with Liu Tingting without saying a word. Liu Tingting pondered all the way, but she didn't pay attention to Yaojia and the others.
The four of them arrived at the ancient city of Jiegu and returned to the inn.
Liu Tingting sat down at the wooden table and pondered, thinking: "All the way here, I haven't seen the state of the Tubo State accumulating troops, and I haven't built any offensive. Trade between the border cities of the two countries is smooth, there is no hostility, and the situation between the two countries is not tense. In recent years, there has been no friction between the Tubo Yalongjue King and the Dali Kingdom. In addition, the current situation in Tubo is chaotic and complicated, although the power of King Yalongjue is strong, but his heart is about the great cause of the unification of Tubo, so he should not think about invading Dali Kingdom, which is stronger than him. It seems that the news that the master obtained that the Tibetans wanted to invade Dali may not be true. If he really led 5,000 people to attack Xuanmo Palace, whether he won or lost, it would inevitably implicate the friendship between the two countries, and war was inevitable. The master acted like this, regardless of the war between the two countries, and he was bound to capture and kill Mo Chengxi, so Mo Chengxi must be the only one who assassinated the master. According to the kindness of the master, he must only want to capture Mo Chengxi, and he never wants to see the lives ruined, so he ordered me to lead 5,000 men and horses, because I was worried that I would not be able to fight against the Xuan Mo Palace and be unable to capture Mo Chengxi, so it was also a helpless move to increase the gesture of help. As soon as I thought about it, I saw Hu Jue and Qianxian walking into the guest room and stopped thinking.
The two saluted and said, "My subordinates pay a visit to the young master." Yaojia closed the door tightly and sat next to Liu Tingting.
Liu Tingting hinted that the two of them would get up, and Hu Jue said: "My subordinates have secretly arranged for five hundred disciples to disperse to various inns, and their whereabouts will never be revealed." ”
Qianxian nodded casually, implying that he had also arranged the same arrangement as Hu Jue.
Liu Tingting said, "Uncle Hu, where are the rest of the elders?"
Hu Jue said: "Because of the large number of people, they went their separate ways." The two elders Fu Yan and Shi Xian have already arrived in Mardang Town, Yu Jie and Luo Jinxian have arrived in Deqin Town, and the rest have gone to Shangri-La. ”
Liu Tingting said: "Qianyang Envoy, you immediately lead the thousand disciples who came here to return the same way and wait for Shangri-La, there must be no mistake." ”
Qianxian was stunned and asked, "Young master, my subordinates don't know what this means?"
