Chapter 797: Merit Exchange

Xuan Chu said: "Then why don't Taoist priests easily accept disciples? ”

The young man in white said with a smile: "Two people draw talismans, the same master teaches the same method at the same time, one is a Taoist monk who has been a Taoist for many years, and the other is just a hobbyist, and at the same time a teacher, who do you think is more effective in drawing talismans?" ”

Xuan Chu said: "I think it may be good to be a Taoist priest in the Taoist temple, and he is dedicated to the cause of Taoism!" Why can't you even draw a going charm......"

The young man in white said with a smile: "Maybe the lines drawn by the Taoist priest are uneven and crooked, and the other has good art calligraphy skills, and the characters drawn are as beautiful and exquisite as the printed ones, who do you choose?"

Xuan Chu said: "I believe everyone will choose the ...... painted by Taoist priests."

The young man in white smiled: "Why? ”

Xuan Chu said: "You may feel that the Taoist priest in the Taoist temple has the blessing of the Taoist temple......

The young man in white said with a smile: "First of all, Taoist priests have merit in their bodies, supported by the Three Treasures, they give up the comfort and enjoyment of the prosperous world, choose to live in the Qing Meditation, maintain the ancestral master's dojo incense, so that it can operate normally, play a role in maintaining religious sites and improving people's hearts, which are all merits; Secondly, Taoist priests, especially Taoist priests who have been ordained or ordained, are recognized by the three worlds of heaven, earth and man, and are qualified to summon generals by practicing the law and endowing them with spiritual powers. ”

Xuan Chu said: "Oh, I see, but this doesn't say anything, why don't Taoist priests accept disciples at will?" ”

The white-clothed young man said with a smile: "This is why in ancient times, when a Taoist priest had to do a few years of coolie labor, he had to hone his temperament, accumulate merit and good fortune, and practice the Dharma calligraphy to have something to exchange." Of course, if you help others deal with things, you will also have merit in return, and if you handle it well, the subject will be satisfied, and the merit will outweigh the fault, and you will receive money from others, and the merit will be offset. If it is not handled well, the owner's wish is not fulfilled or there is a deviation, which is too much for the merit, and it will damage one's own blessings. Therefore, even if we have learned the Tao, we should not just help others deal with things, but do what we can and follow the circumstances. ”

Ji Chu said: "We have been exchanging, will we finish exchanging merits?" ”

The young man in white smiled: "The answer is: yes." ”

Chu said, "Huh!? "If you pay it back, won't you use up all your merits and blessings?

The young man in white said with a smile: "When the merit and blessing are not enough, I will exchange my luck and even life and life." To give a very direct example: Taoist priest Guo Ran, a native of Shaanxi, traveled to Dongguan, and practiced in a grassland near Humen Town, which coincided with a natural disaster in a certain year, and there was no rain for three years. The Tao is not enough, the merit is not enough, the rain does not come, so the last link of the Dharma needs to accumulate salary from f, after Guo Daochang feathered, it really rained from the sky, benefited the people, the merit is huge, the local people in order to commemorate the merits of Guo Daochang, they built an ancestral hall to worship the Taoist tablet, which has continued to this day. ”

Hui Chu said, "Then how can we bring the merit back?" Otherwise, it will be too late to exchange your life......"

The fairy in red said: "There is a price to do things, and the greater the cause and effect, the greater the cost." When your merits and blessings are not enough, you will exchange your life or your life, so it is important to practice yourself. This is also the reason why some folk onmyoji and feng shui masters do not die well in the end, they only know how to blindly take, squander and consume, and do not know the accumulation of practice, and when the ancestral remnants are consumed, they will consume their own blessings. And the orthodox Zhuguan Taoist priests, who make incense, kowtow and even sweep the floor every day, have merit in it, and the lost merit will slowly come back. ”

The young man in white said with a smile: "There is a saying among the people: merit is not enough to make up for virtue, and virtue is not enough for six relatives." This is a folk saying about the problem of spell compensation, you are not strong enough and use a powerful spell, what to use to compensate, use your accumulated character, that is, your good fortune, if it is not enough, what to do, use the good fortune of your family. ”

The fairy in red said: "There is a problem here, that is, your good fortune has been compensated, your own good fortune will be reduced, your fortune will be low, and all kinds of decay will follow." ”

The white-clothed young man said with a smile: "That's why Taoist disciples have to go through a long time of assessment after apprenticeship, and the master thinks that you will only teach spells after your heart and virtue are qualified."

Xuan Chu thought to himself, he must be vigilant, he must understand his own position, think about what virtue he can do, spend a few thousand yuan or worship a teacher to learn such a powerful spell or charm, if he can spread it without restrictions, a certain virtuous and respected Gao Dao will make it public on TV or the media, so that the whole people can learn it, wouldn't this be beneficial to the country and the people, and the merit is immeasurable.

Xuan Chu: "Virtue, this sentence is also suitable for people who want to learn Taoism and Taoism, only profound virtue can support the effectiveness of magic." ”

Now affected by the Internet, film and television, some young people fantasize about wanting to worship a "fairy" or "master" as a teacher, and then they can learn powerful spells and magical powers; Or if you want to cultivate the Dan Dao, after apprenticeship, you will be able to get through the second vein of Rendu, the big and small Zhoutian. Just imagine, there are thousands of cultivators, those who started before you, those who have better understanding than you, those who have deep blessings, and those who have great merits, why are there so few cultivators, and how can they be favored by the gods?

These are unrealistic, practice still to be down-to-earth, cultivate humanity, and then realize the immortal way; With the Tao of the arts, with the art of the Tao, with the good to raise virtue, with the virtue of the Tao; Only then can we get a glimpse of the way of heaven and be consummated.

Xuan Chu said: "I hope that all friends who like Taoism and want to enter Taoism will not be anxious, slowly learn Taoist knowledge, and exchange and learn from each other." Everything goes naturally, one day, you will meet your master, even if you don't, don't be discouraged, because with more and more learning, you will eventually be different from the previous you, and you will eventually realize your own experience and understand more truths. Fusheng immeasurable Heavenly Venerable. ”

The young man in white said with a smile: "Hehe, but it is indispensable to be born with the guidance of immortal roots, and it must be cultivated, so it can't be generalized that it is not ......."

Chu thought to himself that he was such a person!

If it weren't for the fact that he had just been born, he cried for three years for no reason, and he could see gods and ghosts, how could he embark on a path of cultivating immortals!

Xuan Chu said: "Also, there are some things that happen like that in the dark, and you don't have time to think too much about it, think too much, this thing seems to have been predetermined for a long time......

The young man in white smiled: "Hehe, there must be some adventures in the interior......"

Chu said: "Is crying for three years just after being born an adventure? At that time, my grandfather was writing everywhere in a panic, and there was a night crying man in my house......"

Hehe, I really don't understand when I think about it, what kind of logic is grandpa......

Now that everyone is gone, it's still sad to think about it! People are really fake sometimes! Say no, it's gone.
