Chapter 868 is a bit of a mess
The father and son were about to make a move if they quarreled again, Zhou Xuan stood in the middle and pressed his hands and said, "Everyone, can you talk about one side and the other?" Many family conflicts are caused by ineffective communication, as long as you open your heart, sit down and talk quietly, if you still can't solve it, then think of other ways. ”
Guan Qing interjected: "I suggest that President Yuan shut up and let the two big brothers speak first." ”
The two brothers were stunned, they couldn't imagine that this ordinary-looking young man dared to talk to his father in such a tone, and his father was not angry, which was incredible.
Yuan Yaoxing snorted, no objection, Yuan Sheng sighed slightly, and bowed to his father, "Dad, I'm sorry, I know I have disappointed your high expectations." ”
"Dad, our brother doesn't want to make you sad, it's just that there is nowhere to say the words in your heart." Yuan Qi also bowed down to apologize, tears welling up in his eyes.
"Then let's talk about it!" Yuan Yaoxing's tone also became a lot gentler.
"Dad, you have your ambitions, we also have our own pursuits, and I deeply feel that everything in the world is suffering and it is difficult to get rid of it." Yuansheng Dao.
"Hey, what are you suffering from, you live in a big house, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you will have more daughters-in-law than your father in the future, obviously asking for trouble." Guan Qing began to express his opinion again, "I have no father and mother since I was a child, I sleep in the cemetery, eat hundreds of meals, wear a pair of pants for three years, and show a leg, are I still happy?" ”
"Guan Qing, these two brothers are different from yours, and when they are bitter in their hearts, they feel that everything is bitter and there is nowhere to put them, so they feel that it is difficult to get rid of them." Zhou Xuan said.
The two brothers couldn't help but clench their fists towards Zhou Xuan in admiration, they had heard that Zhou Xuan was talented, and what he said was that he had a level and explained Buddhism thoroughly.
"That's right, I never feel bitter, but there's nothing to be bitter about!" Guan Qing is an optimist, and it is difficult to understand these sentimental groups.
"Zhou Xuan, can I communicate with you?" Yuan Sheng asked.
"Of course, I hope to learn more from you." Zhou Xuan nodded.
The two brothers hurriedly moved chairs and sat in front of Zhou Xuan, opening the chatterbox, as if they had met an old friend, they had closed themselves off for too long, and they urgently needed to open their hearts.
Seeing that Zhou Xuan and his two sons were talking happily, Yuan Yaoxing left quietly, he knew that he had been too strict with his family for so many years, and he couldn't say something to say about guarding him.
"Zhou Xuan, some people say that wealth is enlightened, and our current life is the hometown of wealth and wealth, and we have also experienced eating, drinking and having fun." Yuan Sheng frowned slightly, and said frankly: "However, in our family, you have also seen the intrigue between the three rooms, and my second brother and I can only be Taoist friends, but we can't coexist in the shopping mall, because my father's heir can only have one." ”
"Hmph, this kind of life is really boring. There is also a third brother, who used to be very close to our brothers, but now he is instigated, and he hides when he sees it. We're not going to fight for it, are we? Yuan Qi also began to complain.
"I'm glad that you two can tell me what is in your heart, hehe, you have studied the Dharma more than me, let me ask, is the person who said such a thing already worldly?" Zhou Xuan asked rhetorically.
The two brothers laughed, and they also knew that, in a way, it was a timid escape, unwilling to face reality.
"In life, whether it is practice or work, we must make due contributions, instead of spending years behind closed doors, and the Buddha also has to go out to spread the Dharma. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are not used to prostrate, but to learn to imitate or even transcend. Aren't those heroes who are desperate for their lives Buddhas and Bodhisattvas who save suffering? What is the difference between using one's own painful experience as a lesson for the benefit of future generations and great compassion? The ragged and hungry beggars on the roadside are our warning, and wealth is hard to come by. It's like Yuan'an, who is afraid of his father, and it also makes you see the shadow of your childhood. Zen Buddhism incarnates countless billions, and they are indeed incomparably powerful and omnipresent, it is you, it is me, and it is him. Zhou Xuan said.
Yuan Sheng was stunned, and said for a long time: "It turns out that entering the WTO is to find those role models around you. ”
"Well, the more I cultivate in the house, the more distressed I become, I often feel confused, sometimes I have illusions, and I also suffer from not having the guidance of a high monk." Yuan Qi also nodded.
"Born in a wealthy family, you still have this extraordinary heart, which I admire. A true practitioner, walking, sitting, and lying down is Zen, and there is a saying, you must use the heart of birth to enter the world, you have a mission in the Yuan family, your parents are getting old, and your younger brother is young, so you should be the mainstay of the beam. Zhou Xuan said.
"But I'm so tired of deceiving me! The hell under your feet is empty, and the demons in the world are dancing! Yuan Qi was a little excited, like an angry young man.
"Evil does not suppress righteousness, and Haoran righteousness will definitely be able to return a bright future! You say it's a group of demons dancing, it's just some people and things around you, the world is so big, as a hot-blooded man, are you already scared before you get out of the house? The fear in the practice is precisely the invasion of demons. Zhou Xuan raised his voice.
"Don't be afraid!"
"We're not afraid!"
Guan Qing interjected again, "That is to say, becoming a monk is not going to die, but still living in this world." According to this statement, where is not practice? ”
"Little brother Takami!" Yuansheng is not polite, and it is not easy for Guan Qing to realize these truths at this age.
"If you're afraid of demons, it's useless to hide anywhere, sooner or later it will grow out of your heart. When I was a child, I was scared in the cemetery, but the more I was afraid of nightmares. Guan Qing brought out his own experience.
Yuan Qi was a little curious and asked, "Later, how did you defeat it?" ”
"What else, I'll just go out and whine outside, and never dream of evil spirits again." Guan Qing grinned.
Everyone laughed, and the two brothers also gave a thumbs up, the devil was born from their hearts, and it was their own shortcomings that gave it the soil to breed.
Through conversation, Zhou Xuan found that the two brothers were bound too much by their families, and in addition to not lacking money since they were young, the rest were lacking, especially warmth. They don't feel the warmth of this home, and other people's children are afraid to go to school, but they want to leave home early, and they are bored.
"In your eyes, my father was strict and unkind, but many families were lifted out of poverty because of his benefit. Everything is relative, always learn to find the good side, and live a more relaxed life. Zhou Xuan said.
Yuan Sheng laughed, "So, my dad is also a living bodhisattva?" ”
"It depends on whether you treat him with the same respect as a bodhisattva." Zhou Xuan nodded.
There are many topics among peers, and several people chatted for almost two hours, Yuan Yaoxing was extremely pleased, and the cooperation with Zhou Xuan was the most successful.
"The Buddha has taken root in my heart, and I will not let go of it in this life. Actually, we don't have the intention of becoming a monk now, and our parents are very capable, so they don't need us. Yuan Sheng said.
"Well, our brothers have already discussed, all living beings are suffering, and those souls who died in vain are also suffering, and we will do some work to surpass the undead in the future."
Yuan Qi's words surprised Zhou Xuan, serving the undead, and he had the feeling that the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth had made a wish to empty the hell. Yuan Yaoxing came in again, don't starve the guests, and the conversation was terminated.
"Master, I've also read some Buddhist scriptures, what you said is a bit messy!" Guan Qing scratched his head and muttered quietly.
