Zheng Lang greeted him, and there were more than a dozen monks of all sizes standing outside the chrysanthemum bush.

Among them, there was a great monk sitting cross-legged on the ground, putting the guqin on his lap and playing, even so, the sound of the qin was so beautiful that Zheng Lang had never heard of it. There was also a young monk standing beside him, listening. In addition to these two monks, there were several other monks, but with a respectful attitude, they surrounded an old monk in the middle plus two young monks.

The latter Zheng Lang didn't know their identities, but the people who played the piano and listened to it had already guessed that it was Yihai, a senior monk of Fahua Mountain in Yuezhou, who might also be the first guqin master in the Song Dynasty at present. After finishing middle school with Zhiyu Shiyi in the capital, he returned to his hometown to continue his hard training, and he never went down the mountain for ten years in Fahua Mountain. Because of his excellent piano skills, there are many people in the world who learn the piano from the sea, but no one has perfected it. Later, he carefully selected among many piano learners, and finally chose a proud disciple named Zequan.

This line of Yihai occupies an extremely important position in the history of Chinese guqin, and the famous Zhejiang score is carried forward from this lineage of Yihai.

He came to Yihai with a smile and said, "Great monk, it's not good, it's not good, do you want to learn from the gods to send the jade girl to the Buddha?" ”

From the forty-two chapters of the twenty-six chapters of the Heavenly Demon Rao Buddha, Bo Xun sent a wonderful jade girl to the Buddha, the Buddha said that there are filthy things in the skin, what is the use of sending it, go, I will not use it.

This is the Hinayana teaching, only living for oneself, and the realm is more than 108,000 miles worse than the Mahayana. In the Vimala Sutra, it is recorded that Bo Xun pretended to be the emperor Shakti and sent 12,000 jade girls to the Bodhisattva, but the Bodhisattva did not dare to accept them. At this time, the monk Vimo said to Bo Xun, "Give me all these women." Bo Xun was very frightened when he heard it, thinking that Vimo intended to oppose him and wanted to escape incognito, but he couldn't leave with all his divine power, and at this time the voice of Vimo was heard in the air, Bo Xun, leave the jade girl to the layman, and you can leave. Bo Xun had no choice but to leave the jade girl and let Vimo influence them one by one.

One is to save oneself, and the other is to save people in the world.

But Zheng Lang didn't mean that.

If you want to dialectically verify the Buddhist scriptures, you must be familiar with the Buddhist scriptures, how many Buddhist scriptures are there? Even Einstein's brain came to learn, and he couldn't finish it in a lifetime. Zheng Langchun was cramming Buddha temporarily, and the time was even tighter, so he chose to build a bamboo house here to temporarily learn Buddhist scriptures. That's it, I also distracted myself, occasionally taught the students, and paid attention to the governance of Hangzhou.

However, Zheng Lang loves the qin, and when Yihai comes at this time, if he doesn't persuade Zheng Lang and uses the piano to bewitch Zheng Lang, it will also make Zheng Lang seriously distracted.

"I play the piano, your ears are your ears, and the donor doesn't even understand this, so what kind of Dharma can he discern?"

Zheng Lang laughed, but he was not angry, and pointed at these monks: "Since you are here, what qualifications do you have to discuss the Dharma, each other, everyone is not an enlightened person, see who understands a little deeper." ”

These two sentences are extremely deep Zen machines.

But it's not Zheng Lang's moment to show off now, and said: "Great monk, you and I are still a family, Buddhism also talks about cause and effect, you got my piano score, but you disturbed me when you were critical, I don't know what fruit to plant?" ”

"Good, good, all Dharma surnames are the same, but the mind is separated from the realm, ordinary people are confused and cannot be solved, there is nothing to see, nothing to see, nothing to say and nothing to say. Seeing the Buddha and hearing the Dharma are all distinctions, such as seeing what you see, you can't see the Buddha, and you can't see the differences. It doesn't matter what it grows! ”

The previous paragraph is from the Sutra of the Flails, saying that the Buddha said the Dharma in the Dragon Palace, came out of the sea and saw the city of the Leng, saying that in the past, all the Buddhas spoke here about their own enlightenment with righteous wisdom, and now I also teach this Dharma for King Ravana, so I took many great bhikkhus, great bodhisattvas, Brahma, Shakti, and the great protector Tianlong to demonstrate supernatural powers, and preach the Dharma Sutra, and after the Dharma is demonstrated, they are all hidden in the air. So King Luo Po became enlightened, who was [***] just now? Who are the people who listen to the Fa...... All the dharmas in the world are about like this, they are all the result of their own vainness. Ordinary people don't understand this truth, there is nothing to see, nothing to see, nothing to say, nothing to say, nothing to say, and to see the Buddha and listen to the Dharma are all vain distinctions, as I just saw, it cannot be said that I have seen the Buddha, and I have not seen the Buddha until I see it.

To put it bluntly, you can't look at the picture, and as soon as you look at it, you will fall down, and the heavier one will fall into the devil's path. As long as you don't look at the appearance, you can really see the Buddha and not plant evil consequences.

"Great monk, rats bite the strings, but I like it."

Another Buddhist allusion, two little ghosts went to catch a mage, the mage said to the two little ghosts, I have been a monk all my life, only do merit, not practice, you give me seven days, seven days of practice is completed, I will save the two of you first, and then your boss Hades. The imp was moved by him and gave him a seven-day deadline. The mage knew that he was going to die, he let go of all his thoughts, there was no self, no one, seven days later, the little ghost came, and he saw a piece of light, but he couldn't see anyone, and there was no way to catch him. The two little ghosts wanted to cry without tears, they were fooled, what should I do, I watched for a long time, and saw a trace of black shadow in a piece of light. It turned out that this mage had great merit, and the monarch named him a national teacher, and rewarded him with a purple gold bowl and a golden robe, and the mage put down everything, only this bowl could not be put down. The two imps saw it and turned into two rats to bite the bowl. The mage thought moved, and there was no light in the thought, so the little ghost was shackled, and the mage thought that he had not realized the Tao, and the little ghost would say it, and the mage threw the bowl to the ground after listening, Okay, I will go with you to the king of Hades. It doesn't matter what Hades is and what bowl. So he immediately preached, and brought two little imps with him to follow the enlightenment.

Uncle Shi, don't talk to me about Zen machines, first smash this high-quality guqin in your hand, and then talk about Zen machines after smashing.

Yihai finally stood up, knocked on Zheng Lang's head and said, "Senior brother's letter is right, you are really a lazy person. ”

Zheng Lang just smiled and said, "Please come in." ”

Yihai pointed to the big monk in the middle behind him and said, "Master Zheng, this is the reappearance of the Zen master and his apprentices Tianyi and Yihuai. ”

"If you are here, how can you come to Zen Master?" Zheng Lang said coldly.

This attitude was too arrogant, which made a group of great monks very dissatisfied.

Other monks do not mention, re-show a great reputation, is the Yunmen sect of the premier monk, the abbot of Mingzhou Xuedou Mountain Zisheng Temple, the people of the time called Xuedou re-appearance, or Yunmen re-appearance, once wrote "Song of the Ancient Hundred Rules" and "Ancient Hundred Rules" famous all over the world, the two disciples are also quite proficient in Buddhism, is a famous rising star among the monks.

If you talk about the ranking of high monks at this time, the reappearance can definitely be ranked in the top five.

If it weren't for Zheng Lang causing a battle and going to the palace again, Zhao Zhen would have treated this monk with courtesy.

Zheng Lang downplayed the attitude of these great monks, and said lightly: "But you can barely be regarded as disciples of Buddhism, you can also come in, as for the others, this is a pure land, I don't welcome it, so as not to stain my chrysanthemums." ”

I walked ahead, but I glanced at Rexian out of the corner of my eye, and although Rexian followed, there was no wave on his face, and he was very calm.

The monk is always different, about his own uncle, he also reappeared, helplessly, he is too famous in the Buddhist world, not only at this time, throughout the Yunmen Sect, there are few monks who can surpass him. Or there is a monk Qi Song, who has not come to Hangzhou at the moment, and studied Buddhism under the Xiaocong sect of Ruizhou Rendong Mountain. It wasn't until a few years later that he came to Qiantang and wrote dozens of volumes of Buddhist scriptures and rebuilt the altar scriptures before he surpassed and reappeared. Most of the altar scriptures seen in later generations are this Chesong version. But at the moment, Qi Song is not very famous.

After receiving the bamboo house, Zheng Lang said: "Everyone, wait until I finish writing these words." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the pen and wrote a few big characters on the paper, Fu Yi's eleven articles, good, good.

The faces of the five monks all changed color.

Fu Yi reprimanded the Buddha in the fourth year of Tang Gaozu Wude, showing the eleven evils of Buddhism, exploiting people's wealth, cutting off the national reserves, deserting the military and civilians, shaving their hair and hiding it, not doing two things, and committing ten evils, and so on. The Buddhist monk Fa Lin replied with a heretical theory, scolding Fu Yi, I am a high monk, detached from the world, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to scold you for being too Shiling. Gaozu shelved the controversy and did not happen. Three years later, Fu Yi went to the table again, the Buddha was in the Western Regions, the demon was far away, the Chinese translation of Hu Shu, and his pretense, so he was disloyal and unfilial, cut his hair and shook his relatives, wandered around and ate, easy to obey to evade rent, played his evil law, described his evil law, pseudo-enlightenment three Tu, absurd six ways, intimidated fools, and deceived mediocrity.

This is very powerful, not only pointing to the shortcomings of Buddhism that does not engage in cultivation and weaving, but also pointing out another drawback, disloyalty and filial piety, monks do not recognize their families, how can they come to their parents, let alone the country.

Therefore, Zheng Lang scolded the law on the lotus leaves of the West Lake, and many people wanted to beat the law yuan, which is exactly why. Taoist priests Li Zhongqing and Liu Jinxi also made a distinction and asked Fu Yi to play the court. Fallin refuted it. But it is very reasonable, but the crown prince Li Jiancheng looked for Buddhist support, but it was unsuccessful.

Until the sixth year of Zhenguan, Fu Yi went to the Buddha three times, and in the second year, the prince Zhongshe Xinzhen also began to criticize Buddhism. Huijing made an analysis of doubts, Fa Lin made an analysis of doubts and answers, but gradually fell into the disadvantage, so Li Shimin issued a clear edict to say that the special scriptures, Yu is the first of all wonders, the teaching of Zhuxia, after turning over a multiplication, that is, grandma's, what we have become a descendant of Chinese Taoism, and the theory of Hu people's one-vehicle has actually become a human master, I can't tolerate it, so that the Taoist female crown lives in front of the monks and nuns. Fa Lin was not convinced, saying that the Li family was not a descendant of Laozi, nor was it the Li family in Longxi, but the Xianbei Tuoba Daja, and persuaded Li Shimin to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, you are the Xianbei Li family in Yinshan, don't climb the Li family of the Han people. Li Shimin was furious, and saw that Fa Lin had a sentence that the knife of Guanyin could not be injured in the article on the discernment of the letter and the destruction of the report, and ordered Fa Lin to read Guanyin seven times, and test the neck with a knife when it was due to see if Guanyin worked.

Will this work?

Fa Lin was frightened, and said in prison that I only read Your Majesty in the seven days, not Guanyin, Your Majesty has made great contributions, Your Majesty is Guanyin, and she is extremely flattering and servile, so Li Shimin let him go and exiled him in Yizhou. Buddhism failed miserably. It was not until Wu Zetian sought religious support in order to establish orthodoxy that Buddhism gradually flourished.

In short, Fu Yi's eleven articles are not a major event in Chinese history, but they are a tragic pain in the hearts of the Buddhist community.

He looked at Zheng Lang with apprehension, wondering what Zheng Lang meant by suddenly writing these nine big characters? Could it be that the imperial court could not tolerate Buddhism, and wanted to suppress and exclude Buddhism as the Tang Dynasty did for a period of time?

Zheng Lang dropped the brush and said, "Yihai, then Quan, sit." By the way, reappearing, Tianyi, righteousness, it's not that the official is slacking, since you are here, you are not the so-called Zen master, I can't respect you. Unless you also have a hand that can make the official admire the piano skills, calligraphy, and painting skills. ”

Let you in, stand still.

Chongxian sat down calmly and said: "I'm here, I'm already in the picture, and if I don't sit down, I'm even more in the picture." Sit, sit, why not? ”

"You are also a lazy monk."

Reappear smiled slightly.

In any case, a high monk is high, and with this sitting alone, Zheng Lang can't increase his favor. However, there are too few such great monks.

Zheng Lang made tea, and Yihai opened the door and said: "Master Zheng, you said that thirty-three is not pure charity, but there is another paragraph in front of you, you listen to the report." There are multiple points. He Yi is giving. He has given to himself, and he has eaten and purified himself. Shi has been reported to be named Charity. In what sense is it called the benefactor. That's the questioner. Daxian should listen. If a man has a thing, he has faith. The faithful have been sent to other nations with money. He gives things to other nations. He gives to the rich, and the rich man is blessed, but not the giver is blessed. Though he sends him to give what he has, not to the Lord. If a man gives to himself with his own hands. It is both the giver and the benefactor. Why don't you understand? That Heart Sutra ......"

"Drinking tea, drinking tea, involves Buddhism, although you are not a monk in Hangzhou, the official also allows you to go to identify the Buddha. On the night of Chung Yeung Festival, I will discern with you. I won't talk about it today. ”

But how can this work?

The reason why I came to visit today is to solve the matter today, and if it really starts to distinguish the Buddha in Chongyang, it will become a trend of fish dying and the net is broken.

Don't think that there are many Buddhists, Zheng Lang represents the imperial court, especially the nine words just now have put heavy pressure on a few monks, it is best not to distinguish and solve everything today. So Yihai said again: "Master Zheng, you can't reverse black and white, and there is a Gion Essence. ”

The Gion Monastery is one of the more famous allusions to Buddhism.

Nepal has a Sawei country, and there is an elder named Suda in the Acropolis, hoping that the Buddha will speak in the Sawei country, so he wants to find a place as a place for Shakyamuni to say the Dharma, so he took a fancy to the prince's garden, and was troubled by the prince, and put forward the condition that the garden would be covered with gold before he was willing to sell it. Sudas then paved the ground with gold, and the prince was moved by his sincerity, so he donated all the trees in the garden to the Buddha as a retreat. This allusion is called Gion Ashra, or to the Garden of Solitude, or to the Garden of Solitude.

Zheng Lang said: "Yihai, don't you read the Diamond Sutra?" ”

This is one of the great secrets of Buddhism!!

In many Buddhist scriptures, almsgiving is often seen in a variety of precious stones, scents, and music. But in the Diamond Sutra it is clearly written, "If you see me with color and ask me with your voice, you are walking in an evil way, and you cannot see me as it comes."

Since it is an evil way, why are there so many precious stones, fragrances, beautiful music, and retreats in Buddhist scriptures? Or rather, offerings.

In fact, it is very simple, if you want Buddhism to carry forward, just by begging like a beggar, can it be carried forward, so you want to build a gorgeous Buddhist temple, burn incense, the fragrance is permeated, do not want gems, but to be golden, coupled with solemn Sanskrit singing, the melodiousness of the temple bell, the solemn and sacred atmosphere of religion. In this way, Buddhism can flourish.

This is one of the offerings.

There is also almsgiving, Shakyamuni is a prince, and the group of people he follows are also nobles, such as his cousin Ananda, these people can't plow or plant, and they have to get rid of the world, so they can't starve to death. Therefore, the people should be asked to give alms, but not begging, which would be looked down upon. Therefore, Buddhism has several sayings, called begging for land, begging for Buddhism and Buddhism, begging for food for sentient beings, begging for food that is immortal. There is another one, a bowl of water for the Buddha, and 84,000 insects.

Therefore, many regulations were made that when a disciple drank water, he had to strain it with a cloth before drinking. Disciples are not allowed to cook, and farming is also a violation of the precepts. There are 84,000 insects in a bowl of water, so how many lives will there be when a spade is down? You must cherish life, so you can't farm. There are many insects and ants in summer, and it is necessary to have summer, otherwise many living beings will be trampled to death when they go out to make a relationship. I can only stay indoors to practice, and go out after the autumn to transform my fate (in fact, Tianzhu is hot in summer, and it is so bitter to go out to transform my fate, not really).

But did you consider how many living beings the peasants had caused to disappear because of the alms they had eaten? If he doesn't kill him, what is the difference between the surname? Or as Ouyang Xiu said, the gentleman's friends are good, and the friends are friends, is it because of them, the moon will become the sun?

However, looking at how to distinguish it, Ouyang Xiu was halfway successful, and not many people criticized him later. The Buddha has succeeded in identifying 90 percent, who dares to say that the monk is asking for food?

The prince of the kingdom of Sawei and the son of Sudas repaired the ashram, and Shakyamuni was stationed, and he said the Dharma here for twenty-five years, which is longer than the time of the Dharma in any place, but only one sentence is mentioned in the Diamond Sutra, for a time, the Buddha was in the Solitary Garden of the Buddha in the Solitary Garden, and the great bhikshus were 1,250 people. There is no mention of the great merit of the crown prince and Sudas making offerings.

Zheng Lang is still very in favor of the Diamond Sutra, first of all, it is not as strong as other Buddhist scriptures with such a strong mythological and fantasy color, it is very practical, even if the Buddha has to eat like the common people, so he begs for food. It's hot, and I'm shirtless. The second is that all sages and sages are differentiated by non-action, saying that all sages and sages in ancient and modern times, and all religious masters, have all attained enlightenment, only because of their personal depth, time and place, and the way they have been transmitted. There is a certain dialectical view and inclusive view.

There are very few loopholes, such as a large section of almsgiving. It's not like the altar scripture, what is empty, what is it, but it took a long time to say that the sixth ancestor Hui Neng was hunted down by the Northern Zen sect for the robes of Bodhidharma. Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Yes, I'll give it to you. Those who have attained enlightenment have the method of enlightenment, not clothing, and they are not only obsessed with appearances, but also with demons.

Zheng Lang doesn't believe in Buddhism, but every time he looks at the first product of the altar scripture, he can't help frowning.

But it is this Diamond Sutra that speaks of the true way of giving.

Great Buddhist Secrets!!

Every time Zheng Lang saw the Diamond Sutra, he would smile, and then sigh, different paths lead to the same end, all laws are one, and if you don't deceive me.

And this secret will be the heaviest bomb that Zheng Lang dropped at the Buddha Identification Meeting!

immediately hid the topic, and said: "Yihai, let's play the piano." Each bodhisattva in the Lengyan Sutra has its own method of entering the path, and each bodhisattva's method is completely different. In the past, I said that I didn't study Buddhism, thinking that the Zen master was obsessed with the way of the qin, but after reading so many Buddhist scriptures today, I realized that the qin also has the way of the qin. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the thick Buddhist scriptures behind him.

"What's the explanation?" Yihai couldn't help asking.

"You study Zen Buddhism, there are epiphany and gradual enlightenment, epiphany is difficult, and gradual enlightenment is not impossible. Therefore, it is said that the mountains are like mountains, the mountains are not like mountains, and the mountains are still mountains. There are ten thousand laws in the world, and the piano is also one law. First play the piano with your heart, the heart and the piano are one, the heart is the piano, the piano is the heart, just now I heard you play the piano, it seems to have entered this realm. If you lose your heart and lose your piano, you have no heart and no piano, and you have nothing and no self, then you can realize the Tao. ”

After that, I want to have fun.

This uncle who met for the first time, don't be fooled by your own words, and realize the way! Play the piano well.

Already flickering, Yihai frowned and pondered.

Yihai suddenly opened his eyes and said: "Master Zheng, I came here to be entrusted by the elders of the Audience Temple, please ask you one thing, Hangzhou Zhutian will listen to your exchange, and the Chongyang will be canceled." ”

"Great monk, do I want to call you Master, or uncle, or something else, tell you a story, someone asked Yaoshan Zen Master (a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty), how can I not be confused by the outside world, Yaoshan said, let the outside world come and go, what does it matter? Reply, no. Yaoshan asked rhetorically, then what external realm can confuse you? This leads to a story in which many teenagers gather around an elder to drink, accompanied by many kabuki. Because he was the only one who was the oldest, the elder closed his eyebrows and closed his eyes, sat upright and undisciplined, ignoring the frolic around him. When the party was over, the kabuki demanded a reward from him, and the old man got up and said angrily, "I don't even look at you with a straight eye." When Kabuki heard this, he grabbed him with his hand and said, "What are you looking at with your eyes, but you can only think when you close your eyes." ”

Wang Anshi and the others all laughed, and even the three younger monks held back the corners of their mouths, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

Zheng Lang said again: "The water watering the duck is leeward through the tree, and the Buddha should be viewed as such." Why don't you count the circumstances and close your eyes to a public case. You are in a more vulgar mood than me, and besides, the tea is cold, please leave. Yihai, if there is fate, after Chongyang, you and I will meet again, only play the piano, not talk about Buddha. ”
