Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Demon Wolf Buddha and the Three Religions
As for Sima Shenxian and Zhongnan Mountain Tiger Zhenren Zhong Li, their hearts tumbled, they understood what kind of impact this side would have on the Buddhist sect, and I am afraid that anyone who comes into contact with the Buddhist sect will come here first to talk to or argue with others in the future.
The two of them glanced at each other, and muttered in their hearts, the Demon Wolf Heavenly Star would become a figure that would not be bypassed in the future development of Buddhism.
"Amitabha" almost a cup of tea, several monks woke up, and announced the Buddha's name.
"The Heavenly Star donor sacrificed one side, breaking the essence of my Buddhism's teachings for thousands of years, this side is enlightened to my Buddhism, if you drink it as a head, we and other ignorant people, if you have the consciousness of a smile on the leaves. The merits of the celestial star donor are immeasurable," the old Kukai master had a different color in his eyes, and stood up like a pilgrimage to Dugu Tianxing with his palms together.
Tianxing hurriedly got up and returned the salute, "I don't dare to be a master to praise, but at a certain whim, I suddenly realized, I talked nonsense, and I was happy not to pollute the ears and eyes of the monks."
"As soon as the star benefactor comes out, all the people of my Buddhist sect should take it as a canon, and from then on, my Buddhist sect will have another Buddha" Silla monk Yixiang was even more excited, and directly gave a Buddha.
This will not only be unknown to everyone, even Tianxing will be stunned.
"The star benefactor deserves the title of Buddha," Master Kukai also solemnly declared, "Amitabha, the poor monk listens to the true Zen today, should meditate and tidy up, disturb the donor, and sin and sin"
Master Kukai said, regardless of it, he left straight away, and the monks who accompanied him came out one after another, and just left.
Several wealthy merchants and believers also hurriedly followed, and the rest of the people were stunned and didn't know why, so they had to look back at Dugu Tianxing again.
Dugu Tianxing Shi Shiran took a sip of tea, "On the copper pot, I'm hungry"
Everyone is drunk, you scared away the monks, and after a while, they actually shouted that they were hungry, and they all wanted to ask why this goods were there, but they didn't know where to start.
For a moment, Tianxingju was chewing, everyone was still pondering, and several little ladies shouted in their hearts why? Why? The two Taoist elites pondered silently, and the wealthy businessmen whispered about the behavior of the monks, and several generals of the Metropolitan Protectorate were bored, and went downstairs to find comfort together.
Tianxing beckoned his two guards, the big bear and the dog, to follow him and eat meat and drink wine, ignoring the eyes of everyone looking at the crooks.
Seeing that the demon wolf Tianxing was also eating, Sima Chengjiao's sect master muttered, and the long sleeves of the robe were thrown downstairs and walked away, Tianxing hurriedly shouted, "Sima Immortal, what you promised must be done."
"When the twilight is frugal, the mountains and forests are lonely and secluded. Dengqi Peak looks at the white clouds, and is sad and longing. The white clouds are long and do not return, and the sea breeze blows in the evening and evening. I don't see who is talking to him, and I sit and play the piano and think about it. Sima Chengjiao didn't answer, and chanted a poem without looking back.
"Hey, Immortal Sima, you make it clear? What is this? Tianxing was in a hurry, dropped his wine glass and rushed to the corridor and shouted.
"This is not the other, the puppet turns into a stubborn stone, the fate will come to an end, and there is no time for many things" When he arrived on the second floor, Sima Shenxian gave another sentence and left adrift.
Tianxing returned to his seat angrily, took a big sip of wine, forked a piece of fat and tender mutton and swallowed it in one gulp, looking at the crowd, "You're all idle, aren't you?" What are you going to do, what are you going to do?"
The third floor of the Temple Street Inn is half empty, there are still twenty or thirty people stranded, the three little ladies are looking at the stars with Venus eyes, the third princess and Ximen Ying sit in a corner, and glance at the Tianxing from time to time.
The tiger shark Feng Tang, the head of Liuqiu, drank wine, looking like a fairy with a glass in his hand, and several wealthy businessmen from the Far East and Liaodong gathered to discuss mundane matters, but their ears fluttered and paid attention to this side.
The two of them smiled and toasted each other and poured themselves a drink, leaving only the two stupid bears and dogs to eat the large pieces of fat mutton in the copper pot.
Dugu Dadu listened to Tianxing's indignant words, and smiled pleasantly: "Finally, you don't know anything, right?" ”
"I am a scholar in this book, how can I know how many of you are a great sage?"
"Look, this is scolding us for being old? Lao Dan, has this monkey's tail not come down from the sky? Dugu Dadu Hu pointed at the Demon Wolf Tianxing and scolded with a smile.
"Hey, Dadu Hu, it's you who take the lead, otherwise I want to accept a Buddha as a son," Shan Dadu Hu teased.
"What's the matter? Are you envious and jealous and hateful? Dugu Tianxing squinted his eyes and tasted the wine, "Those few eminent monks and great virtues have a good eye, how can you two people in the world see the true face of Ben Langjun?" ”
"You..." Shan Da took care of the danger and didn't choke on a sip of wine, didn't you see anyone talking back? "You, Demon Wolf Tianxing, slaughtered the city and exterminated the clan, did you do less bloody things? Also the Buddha? Devil, right? In the next life, in the next life, in the next life, in another dozen lifetimes of cultivation, see if you can eliminate the sin? ”
"Hey, a single pair of mostly protectors, compared to this, neither of us can say anyone? They are all people who have fought on the battlefield in the army, but we have to say it separately, the enemies of the Khanate think we are devils, is that our glory? You let those good gentlemen go to war and be called bodhisattvas? I'm bah, Ben Langjun will definitely stab him when he encounters this kind of person. ”
"This is right for appetite, come, let's go together" Okay, a deputy capital protector of Anton's Dadu Protector's Mansion, a temple street Chong Du Wei's wine glass clanged and drank it all.
"Okay, you two slow down" Dugu Dadu smiled hehe, "I can't see that you have a Dugu Tianxing Demon Wolf cub, and the Daomen Buddhism has suppressed you, how about it?" Also comment on our Confucianism? ”
"That's it, Sect Master Sima who asked yesterday was speechless, and today's four sentences and sixteen words have suppressed a few famous monks in Kyoto," Wang Jiangnan hurriedly interjected, "Where did you see these words?" Teach me, and I want to become learned."
"Little lady Wang, this study is based on talent," the Tianxing University scholar squinted and looked at Wang Jiangnan, who was smiling and grinning, "Do you want to become as knowledgeable as me?" Hey, is it hard? ”
"Tianxing Duwei is very knowledgeable, and he has studied Buddhism and Taoism very deeply" Zheng Suier also said on the side, "We are not as worthy as we are, and I hope that Tianxing Duwei will give more advice"
"Don't you dare to be a "Captain Tianxing" is fluttering, "It's just this to do learning, there is no shortcut?" I will send you a side: There is a road in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea. ”
"Okay, I only see you drinking wine and eating meat on weekdays, how can I see you concentrating on studying?" Dugu Dadu immediately exposed the skin of this goods, "It's just that you are thinking about it on weekdays and guessing randomly, but you put your mind on the battle that is about to be fought."
"Yes, yes, Captain Bendu will definitely practice diligently these days, study more military books, and strive to settle the Far East in a war" Dugu Tianxing patted his chest and assured his future father-in-law.
"Well, after this battle, you and I will go back to Kyoto, and we will find a pure place, study more scriptures, and I will be a disciple of Confucianism, what will I say about a son who talks about Buddhism and Taoism?" Dugu Daduhu began to imagine his life after the war.
"Hehe, Dadu Hu, Tianxing can suppress Buddhism and Taoism in a few words, and he may also have a deep understanding of Confucianism, and he has a unique insight?" Most of the single pairs can't see the father and son working together, and they are happy.
"Yes, yes, Dugu Tianxing, you also have a high opinion of Confucianism, right?" Wang Jiangnan was afraid that there would be no topic, so he hurriedly spoke out to help.
"Just talk about it" Dugu Dadu Hu encountered an assassination at noon, and at lunch, he encountered a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism, and he was full of waves, drinking wine and eating delicious food, and he also wanted to hear interesting stories.
"Hah, you guys are studious, aren't you? Think you can stump Ben Lang-kun like this? Ben Langjun has been diligent in learning since he was a child, and he has a wide range of knowledge is not something you can imagine, "Dugu Tianxing looks at the sky is still early, the golden crow has not yet fallen westward, and the trade conference has its own Far East Merchants Bank to take care of it, and it is idle to be idle, and he drank a little wine, and he couldn't help but flutter around, "Today, Ben Langjun will let you see what is called learning?" ”
"Hula," the people around hurriedly gathered around, and the studious Prince Yu Zhi was holding a paper in his hand, looking like a good student.
"Okay, okay, don't squeeze, let's find a seat and sit well, let's just talk about passing the time" Tianxing was also startled, why are there so many people with no knowledge and culture?
Everyone hurriedly found a chair and sat down to gather around, all wanting to hear what this No. 1 scholar in the Far East had to say. Even the resentful Third Princess of Temple Street and the well-informed Manager Feng Tang were no exception.
"Ahem, okay, everyone is tireless in learning, I'll just say it, you just listen to it" Tianxing coughed twice.
"Having said ... "Oh, what do you want to hear?"
"Just listen to you talk about the essence of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism," Wang Jiangnan gave the question, and everyone agreed.
"Okay, Ben Langjun will popularize the essence of the three religions for you. You know that the three religions in the world, Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, have been widely spread for thousands of years, but do you know the difference between this sect and family learning? ”
"Okay, I know you don't understand, this sect is a religious sect, and the so-called religion is a kind of spiritual sustenance for people, such as you Wang Jiangnan, you don't know where you come from? Who are you? What are your future pursuits? Are you looking for answers? At this time, someone told you that you were sent by God, that you were a practitioner sent by the Buddha to the world, and that your pursuit was to save everyone from human suffering, and you agreed, well, you slowly found that there were many people who had the same idea as you, and this formed a religion, and you had faith, doctrine, a code of conduct, and a desire to educate and educate people, and this formed a sect."
"With teaching, there is a method of preaching, you spread the word, he is heart-to-heart, this forms a sect, what Zen Buddhism, Huayan Sect, Tiantai Sect, etc., are all Buddhist sects, what Maoshan sects, Louguan sects are Taoist sects. With the sect, there are people who study and improve, and these people love to write books and pass on them, and gradually form academic classics, which is the so-called Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism. Do you understand? ”
Whether you understand it or not, everyone nodded like chickens pecking rice.
"As the saying goes: Confucianism and Taoism are connected, and the three religions have always been one ancestral style. Red lotus, white lotus root, green lotus leaf, the three religions were originally one family. Hey, don't remember this sentence, this sentence is controversial, I'm afraid of being beaten to death, I'm just talking"
Everyone was speechless, but this argument was really fresh, and although everyone below was unconvinced, it was not easy to pursue it.
"In fact, to study the three religions, you have to jump out of the Three Realms, as the saying goes, look horizontally at the side of the ridge into a peak, the distance and the height are different, you are a person in the three religions, and you will naturally understand the other two religions from the sect of your own sect, so it will naturally deviate far, for example, you Wang Jiangnan is a Buddhist person, you pay attention to the emptiness of all laws, how do you understand the rule of inaction and benevolence."
Wang Jiangnan grinned, why am I a Buddhist?
"It's just a metaphor, in fact, a religion must first solve three questions, that is, who am I? Where am I from? Where am I going? Do you know these three questions? Do you know Wang Jiangnan? ”
"I'm Wang Jiangnan, I'm from Kyoto, and I'm going to the Far East battlefield," Wang Jiangnan replied cooperatively.
"Yes, yes, Wang Jiangnan is very studious, so who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? In other words, what is the world as we see it? Where did it come from? Where to go? ”
"Don't understand, do you? Confused, right? These three teachings are dedicated to explaining these three issues."
"Buddhism says that all dharmas are empty, that is, the world is illusory, everything in the world is not eternal, birth, old age, sickness and death, destruction and new life, which is the so-called six reincarnations of cause and effect in the three worlds."
"Taoism, that is, the Tao gives birth to one, one, two, two, three, and all things, and all things in the world are born from being, and some are born from nothing."
"Confucianism, the ancestor of all things, all things are not born in heaven. Innate destiny, destiny has a way. ”
"Confucianism talks about harmony and development, Taoism talks about nature, Buddha opens the universe and clarifies the mind, and the three have the same root since ancient times. Confucianism talks about entering the WTO, Taoism talks about birth, and Buddhism talks about salvation. Confucianism talks about the mandate of heaven, Taoism talks about nature, and Buddhism talks about liberation. Confucianism starts from life, Taoism starts from self-cultivation, and Buddhism starts from cultivating nature. ”
