Chapter 845: Mahayana Buddhism

Wang Chongyang returned to the Bodhi tree at this time, and the lantern burning Taoist was still sitting under the tree, the clothes on his body were already a little torn, his hair seemed to have grown, and his beard was more messy.

Wang Chongyang felt that this lantern burning Taoist seemed to have been sitting here since he left last time, and he hadn't left a single step, and he couldn't help but secretly admire that this was the person who wanted to become the master of all Buddhas in the future.

In fact, Wang Chongyang felt that although he was the master of the Burning Lamp Daoist, he had not taught him anything at all, and all the Buddhist principles he comprehended in the future may have been realized by himself.

Wang Chongyang saw that the Daoist was concentrating on enlightening the Buddha, so he didn't disturb him, and when he was about to leave again, he saw two auspicious clouds flying in the sky, and there were two more people in front of him in an instant.

One of them is burly, with a disheveled head, but a string of Buddhist beads hangs around his neck, and the other is slightly emaciated, but his bearing is extraordinary, and the aura of both of them is extraordinarily strong, and he is not an ordinary person at first glance.

After the burly man glanced at Wang Chongyang, he turned his head to look at the Burning Lamp Taoist who was meditating under the Bodhi tree, and then smiled at the emaciated man and said, "Senior Brother Zhun Ti, it seems that the Buddha qi you sensed is emanating from this real person!" ”

Wang Chongyang couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he heard this, this burly man is called a thin man, so he is the guide?

The quasi-Taoist laughed at this time, stroked his beard and said, "This person is indeed a Buddhist genius, it turns out that he can get such a cultivation by sitting and enlightening, but I'm afraid that you and I are not as good as him!" ”

At this time, Wang Chongyang turned to the Daoist and the quasi-Daoist, "It turned out to be the Daoist and the quasi-Daoist, which is really disrespectful!" ”

After the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist glanced at Wang Chongyang, they secretly felt strange, the young man in front of him didn't seem to have been cultivating for a long time, but he was already on par with his own cultivation, and the most important thing was that he didn't know anyone who had such a cultivation.

Wang Chongyang knew that this Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist were the disciples of his senior brother Mixed Kun, so he immediately said to the two of them, "Lingshi Mixed Kun is my second senior brother!" ”

Hearing this, the faces of the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist couldn't help but move, and after carefully looking at Wang Chongyang, the Daoist immediately bowed to Wang Chongyang and said, "It turns out to be Uncle Yang!" ”

Wang Chongyang smiled when he heard this, it seems that in front of these two Buddhist gods, he still has some identity, although they don't know themselves, but as soon as they mention that Mixed Kun is their senior brother, the two of them immediately know themselves.

The quasi-Ti Daoist couldn't help but say to Wang Chongyang, "Why is Uncle Yang here?" ”

Wang Chongyang pointed his finger and lit the lamp, "That's my disciple, and I am now called Bodhizi!" ”

When the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist heard this, their faces suddenly moved, it turned out that the person who realized the Buddha was a disciple of Uncle Yang, and they couldn't help but have a little admiration for Wang Chongyang.

The quasi-Daoist immediately knelt in front of Wang Chongyang and said, "Uncle Yang, please save me!" ”

Wang Chongyang's heart moved, how could he know what kind of Buddhism he had, and immediately said in an instant, "You two have already established a Western religion in the West, and Buddhism has already been formed in your hearts, how can I treat you?" ”

The Taoist said to Wang Chongyang, "I don't know where Uncle Shi's Buddhism came from?" ”

Wang Chongyang asked rhetorically, "Where did your Buddhism come from?" ”

"This is the secret book passed down by the master and the master, the so-called elite enlightenment of the Buddha, only people with Buddha nature can participate in the Buddha's teachings, just like the disciple of the uncle!" ”

Wang Chongyang asked the Daoist again, "Those who don't have Buddha nature, will the Buddha give up on them?" ”

The Taoist was stunned for a while, and he was allowed to mention the Taoist, "The so-called Buddha and the Tao are general, and those who cultivate the Tao in the middle of the way are not also people who have understanding to realize the Tao?" ”

Wang Chongyang laughed and said, "Then since the enlightenment of the Buddha is the same as the enlightenment of the Tao, why do you still have to separate the Buddha from the Tao, in the eyes of the two of you, isn't the Buddha the Tao?" ”

Zhun Ti frowned when he heard this, and was immediately speechless, Wang Chongyang was right, if the Buddha and the Tao are the same, then why did he and his senior brother have the ingenuity to create a Western religion that they thought were different?

The Taoist immediately said to Wang Chongyang, "Uncle Shi should also know that not everyone has understanding, all things in the world are the best of the best, and we in the West are naturally pursuing such natural laws!" ”

Wang Chongyang shook his head and said, "The Buddha comes from the Tao, but it should be different from the Tao, the Tao pays attention to the elite policy, but the Buddha should also purify all sentient beings, and all living beings are equal!" ”

After hearing this, the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist glanced at each other, and they didn't know how to answer Wang Chongyang's words for a while.

At this time, the quasi-Ti Daoist arched his hand towards Wang Chongyang and said, "Uncle Yang, although you are the uncle of my senior brothers, but what you said, the disciples dare not agree, everything in the world is born with a rank, and the equality of all beings is just an idealization!" If you want to implement it, it is not feasible at all! ”

The Taoist also echoed, "What the senior brother said is right, if the equality of all living beings is to be implemented, then there should be no emperors and generals in the world, and everyone should be treated equally, no one can restrain others, and the heavenly emperor should not be elected in the heavenly palace, and there will be no such level gap between you and me as a senior uncle and a nephew!" ”

Wang Chongyang said with a smile, "You have fundamentally made a mistake in your understanding, the original intention of having emperors and generals in the world is not to elect emperors and generals to control others, but to use their elite minds to lead other ordinary people to create a better life together, and the hierarchy of the Heavenly Palace should be the same!" ”

The quasi-Daoist immediately said, "What Uncle Shi said is reasonable, but the disciple still feels that it is a little too idealistic, and the hierarchy in the world is still pressed up and down, big and small?" ”

Wang Chongyang smiled and said, "So your Buddhism is just Mahayana, and you don't take into account Hinayana at all?" ”

The Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, "Mahayana? Hinayana ? ”

Wang Chongyang explained, "The so-called Mahayana is the elite system, and the Hinayana is the system of sentient beings, you don't emphasize the current human phenomenon, you have also lived for thousands of years, experienced a lot of emperors and generals, and the emperors and generals have always regarded the people as their people, all of them have created an unprecedented prosperous world, and those who regard the people as ants will never recover, leaving infamy through the ages!" ”

After a deep groan between the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist, the two looked at each other, what Wang Chongyang said seemed to be very reasonable, but it was completely contrary to the Buddhist principles understood by the two of them, and even completely contrary to it.

If they accept Wang Chongyang's theory, it is tantamount to asking them to abandon the so-called Mahayana Buddhism and completely start accepting Hinayana Buddhism again.

Once this is the case, it means that the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist will have to abandon their cultivation for thousands of years and start cultivating and realizing the Buddha again, which is simply difficult for the two of them to ascend to the sky.

Just like asking Wang Chongyang to give up his cultivation and start cultivating again, Wang Chongyang may not be willing to give up.

Wang Chongyang looked at the expressions of the two people, and guessed the thoughts of the two, he could also understand the thoughts of the two, and he didn't force it, just smiled at the two of them and said, "Although the two teachers and nephews are profound, they are bound by common sense, and they may not see any clues at the moment, but they will inevitably succeed and fail in the future. ”

The Taoist and the quasi-Taoist successively gave Wang Chongyang his hand, "What Uncle Shi said is extremely true, but the two disciples have already accumulated a lot of difficulties, and now they are cultivating in this life, I am afraid that it will be difficult to give up!" ”

Wang Chongyang said, "Everything can't be forced, everything is two-sided, you two have this kind of thought, I don't think it's strange, just read that you two are the disciples of my senior brother Mingkun, so I advise the two teachers and nephews, 'If you are willing to give up, you can only get if you are willing to give'!" ”

When the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist heard this, their hearts were all in the same place, and they each silently recited Wang Chongyang's words in their mouths, "If you are willing to give up, you will get if you are willing to give!" ”

The truth is very simple, but it is easier said than done, how many people in this world can abandon what is in front of them and pursue a future of nothingness.

In the end, the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist glanced at the Burning Lamp Daoist sitting under the Bodhi tree again, and their hearts were secretly Dao, the same reason, they were unwilling to give up the cultivation they had obtained now, so if they wanted to persuade the Burning Lamp Daoist to join their Western Sect, I am afraid that it would never be possible, right?

Wang Chongyang saw that the Daoist and the Quasi-Tidao were looking at the Burning Lamp Daoist, and it was as if a picture scroll of Buddhism appeared in front of him, two great gods representing Mahayana Buddhism, looking at a great god who would replace them in the future and represent Hinayana Buddhism, and the great god Burning Lamp Daoist who could replace them would still be replaced by others in the future.

This shows that there is nothing in this world that cannot be replaced, and it also shows that society is always moving forward and will not stop because of any person's consciousness.

Wang Chongyang sighed at this time, "Two nephews, don't look at him, he, like you, can only represent the present, not the future!" ”

Both the Daoist and the Quasi-Daoist were puzzled, and looked at Wang Chongyang in surprise, "Please also ask Uncle Shi to make it clear!" ”

Wang Chongyang said, "For yourself, you are the present, but for those who come later, such as the junior brother in front of you, you are the past, and he is ......the present."

The quasi-Daoist and the Daoist nodded as if they didn't understand, but they heard Wang Chongyang then say, "But this is not the end, in his eyes, he is the present, you are the past, but there will still be latecomers, I think he is in the past, and the latecomers are the present!" Got it? ”

The Taoist and the quasi-Taoist had an epiphany, and immediately knelt down in front of Wang Chongyang and said, "What does Uncle Shi mean, let the two disciples look at the future, not the past, nor the present, but the future?" ”

Wang Chongyang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes! ”
