Chapter 297: Today is the Most Important!
"Disciples, as a teacher is about to leave you, I hope you will reform well, meet a new life with a new look, breaking the law and committing crimes, committing adultery and committing crimes, all are despicable behaviors, how to prevent crimes? It is necessary to maintain good thoughts from the bottom of the heart, do less bad things or even do not do bad things, if you really can't control yourself, you can also chant the Buddha, and then I teach you to recite a section of the Buddha: natural disasters and man-made disasters, which can happen at any time, unpredictable, uneasy, if you often chant the Buddha, the big things will turn into small, the small things will be turned into nothing, and the peace will be avoided. If you are poor and recite Buddha, you can help each other with nobles and get food and clothing; The patient's recitation of Buddha can assist medicine and make a speedy recovery. The merits of reciting the Buddha are boundless, and the ten dreams of sentient beings can be fulfilled: seeking children, prolonging life, healing diseases, solving disasters, helping fame, settling down in a home, seeking a career, benefiting assets, resolving grievances, and dying excessively. Not only have I been blessed myself, but I have also benefited my family. Those who chant the Buddha, Amitabha, live on the top of it, magnify the light, guard day and night, follow the Bodhisattva, and the gods support; The present world is stable and happy, and the pure land of life is dying.
Please always recite: 'Nam no Amitabha', or 'Nama' (note: Ah, pronounced the same as 'ah'. Mida'. ”
As a result, all the inmates recited the Buddhist scriptures with devotion. has been teaching Weiyang to a dry mouth, but she never gets tired of it.
Weiyang pondered: "It's so long! Then he said, "If you don't want to memorize such a lengthy scripture, you can simply remember a few words: 'People are doing, and the sky is watching', 'People have good thoughts, and God will help them', 'If you do evil, you will not look back, and the heavens will destroy it', and 'Doing good things cannot be stopped, and you are born and long.' ’”
The disciples had recited the Buddhist scriptures, and most of their souls seemed to have been silently baptized by the Buddha's feelings, but some people objected and said in a lost voice: "Master, are you telling us all to become monks?" Do you still have to fast when you go back? ”
"You think so, I think it's already good, for the teacher is very happy, not to ask you to become holy monks and Qingdao, including myself, also a person in the red dust, but it is better to have the temperament of a monk, for example, to have the Zen of a monk, the realm of a Taoist and the compassionate heart of a bodhisattva. Do you know why a bodhisattva's eyes are closed? Weiyang scanned the entire cell meaningfully.
"That's a strange question! Who knows?" Everyone said in unison.
"To solve your doubts and doubts for teachers is to welcome everyone's rebirth. The next passage of the teacher may touch everyone's soul, but knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great. Successive dynasties have promulgated strict punishment laws, and even more stringent requirements from generation to generation, but the bad people in various states and regions are constantly committing adultery, why is this so? Bodhisattvas are powerless to stop the sin of being greedy and selfish, or to sprout sinful thoughts of unearned gains, or to create sinful karma that is not as good as that of beasts, and the bodhisattvas are powerless to stop it in time, so they simply close their eyes and listen to maintain the purity of their hearts. ”
"Oh! I see. "It turned out that we caused the Bodhisattva to dare not open his eyes!" Everyone began to review themselves, Weiyang was very happy, and the two adults also smiled convincingly.
"Actually, I hope that the criminals of the Great Song Dynasty will be extinct or even extinct! Ay! I don't know how many generations of Nuri will have to go through!" Weiyang lamented.
"Master, how can we cultivate good thoughts well?" One asked.
Wan Juan saw that the master was extremely thirsty, so he ran out to bring tea for the master, Weiyang felt that these people were not bad at all, and they were really affectionate and righteous! Maybe it's a moment of confusion, maybe it's a habit that is hard to change, maybe it's someone instigated.
"For example, when you see a grass, a flower, or a tree, you don't want to pull it up and cut it down right away, but appreciate it and appreciate it, imagining yourself as this grass, this flower, this tree. When you see a house, you should not immediately imagine the wealth of the owner, otherwise, you will have evil thoughts, but imagine the life of the owner, how the flowers and plants are planted in front of and behind the house, how the fruit trees are planted, etc., in short, we should really care about whether the family lives happily. ”
"Thank you, Master!" Everyone understood it thoroughly.
"Master, I sometimes feel too bored, so I went out to find excitement, but I didn't expect to be sanctioned by the government as soon as I made a move, hey, the unlucky days are really distressing, in this life, which day is the important key?" Horizontal asked.
"As a teacher, I have to tell you another story, a young man who went to visit a wise man who lived in the mountains, and wanted to ask him some questions about life. May I ask you, Master, which day is the most important in a person's life? Is it a birthday or a day of death? Is it the day your first love begins, or is it the day you succeed in your career? The youth asked, 'Neither, the most important thing in life is today.' The wise man replied without thinking. 'Why?' The young man was curious, 'Is there something earth-shattering happening today?' ''Nothing happened today.'' ''So is it important today because of my visit?'' ''Even if there are no visitors today, today is still important because today is the only wealth we have.'' Yesterday, no matter how memorable and nostalgic it was, sank to the bottom of the sea like a shipwreck; Tomorrow, no matter how brilliant it may be, is yet to come; And today, no matter how ordinary and bleak, it is in our hands and at our disposal. The young man also wanted to ask, but the wise man stopped talking and said: 'In talking about the importance of today, we have wasted our today, and we have much less today. The young man nodded thoughtfully, and then went down the mountain. Indeed, for each of us, today is our only capital and our only opportunity. So, what we should do now is to forget yesterday's unhappiness and tomorrow's unreachability, firmly grasp today, repent, reflect with heart, work hard to reform, and embrace a new life with a new look. ”
"No, anyway, my most important day is really 'today', not every boring today, because there are good-looking fairy ways to open our hearts, don't you say?" Zhang Daru said excitedly.
"Yes!" The crowd chimed in.
The prisoners were taken in again, and everyone lay down by the small window and asked anxiously, "Master, will you come back to see us?" ”
"As long as you transform with your heart, I will be by your side at any time, because the 'avenue is invisible'!" Weiyang laughed.
"That's great! Don't lie to us!" Many said eagerly. "I never lie!"
Before Weiyang resigned, he also donated fifty taels of gold to the government office, and asked Lord Cao to buy some books such as subsets of scriptures and histories for the "disciples", so that their diet was reasonable and balanced, Lord Cao held Weiyang's hand, and said gratefully: "Niangniang, the merciful Concubine Wen Niangniang, how can the old man praise you?" On behalf of all my fellow inmates, I would like to express my highest respect to you! ”
Concubine Wen presented ten taels of gold to Fu Weng, and asked: "My lord, my little sister is going to say goodbye, Su Huang is not separated, Master Su is here, the valley Taoist is here, and my scholars from Song Deyi Shuangxin are here!" Please take care of your precious body! Remember! My Great Song Dynasty's literary world is indispensable! ”
"Thank you for your concern!" Huang Tingjian's eyes were full of tears.
