The Seven Sufferings of Man
Luo Hua didn't want to see me, I looked at his body and secretly felt sad. He still blooms like this, but he no longer sees the boy who used to dangle around me.
When Meng Po saw me like this, she couldn't bear it and told me an amazing secret:
"Girl, Luo Hua doesn't want to see you, it's that he can't see you."
I looked at Meng Po in confusion and asked:
"Why did Meng Po say this?"
Meng Po sighed and said:
"This also has something to do with me, you have guarded the Yellow Spring for a thousand years, and then you will sleep for a thousand years because of the flowers. During these thousand years, I have poured out the tears of the world. In fact, there is nothing in this book, but Luo Hua has absorbed all the bitter tears of the world, and he has left you the pure tears of the world because of love, which makes him carry the negative emotions of too many people. Later, because he was punished by the Buddha of the precepts, he had to separate you from him, and left most of the roots for you, which made his body unable to bear such heavy resentment, and he almost fell into the demonic path, so he sealed his consciousness. ”
Meng Po's words shocked me, and it was because of me, Luo Hua always because I was injured, always carried the consequences for me, and I owed him too much.
"Girl, I didn't go to see Master and me when I came, I have no conscience, why am I so miserable to accept such an apprentice as you? Hum! ”
I looked back and saw Master pretending to be angry, like a lovely old urchin.
"Master, I was about to go to see you, but who knew you were coming."
A smile immediately appeared on Master's face,
"I knew my apprentice hadn't forgotten me, hahaha!"
I said right away:
"Look at what you said, Master, one day as a teacher and a father for life, how could I forget you."
After I finished speaking, I bowed to the Master and said:
"Master, the disciple is confused, please explain, the Buddha said that all living beings are suffering, what is suffering, what is suffering?"
After listening to my question, Master's eyes became serious, and he said to me seriously:
"There are seven sufferings of sentient beings, namely, birth, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love, parting, and unwantedness."
After Master finished speaking, I continued to ask:
"Disciple asks Master to solve his doubts, what is the suffering?"
As he spoke, the Master seemed to have returned to the time when he was a monk who preached under the Bodhi tree, and he said:
"There are five kinds of suffering: first, conception: when the mother's womb is recognized, it is narrow and impure in the mother's womb. The two, the seed: It is said to know the remains of the parents, and the seeds of their knowledge are in and out with the breath of the mother, and they are not at ease. Three, growth: It is said that in the mother's womb, after October and October, the internal heat is decocted, and the body gradually becomes formed, living under the raw organs, above the cooked organs, and the sandwich is like a prison. Fourth, out of the womb: it is said that under the first birth, there is a cold wind, hot wind blowing on the body, and clothes and other things touch the body, and the skin is soft and tender, such as being stabbed by objects. Five, types: It is said that the character is rich and poor, and the appearance is flawed and ugly, which is a name and a bitterness. ”
I went on to ask:
"Then what is old suffering?"
"There are two kinds of old suffering: one is growth: from young to strong, from strong to declining, with little strength, and restlessness. The two are destroyed: it is said that prosperity and decay come, the spirit is consumed, and its life is shortened, and it gradually decays, which is the name of old suffering. ”
"What is sickness?"
Master continued to answer:
"There are two kinds of sickness: one is physical illness: it is said that there are four major imbalances, and many diseases are attacked. If the ground is out of tune, the body is heavy. The water is out of balance, and the body is fat and swollen. The fire is out of tune, and the body is steaming. The wind is out of tune, and he is stubborn. The two are heart disease: it means that the heart is distressed, sad and sad, and it is a sickness and suffering. ”
"What is the bitterness of death?"
"There are two kinds of death suffering: one is death from illness: death due to illness and death. The two, the outer edge: It is said that it is a name for death and suffering by encountering evil fate, or suffering from fire and water. ”
"What is love, parting from suffering?"
"Love and parting from suffering: It is said that the people who are always loved are obediently separated and cannot coexist, which is the name of love and parting from suffering."
"What is resentment and bitterness?"
"Resentment will be bitter: It is said that the person who often resents and hates wants to stay away, but gathers together, which is resentment and bitterness."
"What does it mean not to suffer?"
"Asking for no suffering: It means that everything in the world, those who love and enjoy the joy of the heart, ask for it but cannot get it, it is the name of seeking without suffering."
After Master, he asked me:
"Solvable?"
I replied:
"Solution."
Master asked again:
"What's the explanation?"
I replied:
"There are five kinds of suffering, that is, in the mother's womb, the living environment is small, dirty, uncomfortable, and suffers from intermittent suffering, as well as the suffering of external environmental stimulation after birth and the suffering of being destined at birth after birth. There are two types of old suffering, that is, physical and mental aging suffering and old age suffering. There are two types of sickness and suffering, which are physical illness and mental suffering. There are two kinds of death suffering, that is, the suffering of being tortured by illness and the suffering of being killed by natural disasters and man-made disasters. All four of these are the sufferings that cannot be changed by manpower. The pain of parting from love is the suffering of separating from those who do not want to be separated. Resentment will be bitter, that is, the suffering of meeting people who do not want to see each other. To ask for pain is to want to suffer from not getting. These three are probably bad fate. ”
After I finished speaking, Master nodded with satisfaction and said:
"The comprehension score is not bad, if you can collect half a drop of each of the original tears that flowed due to the seven sufferings, and then purify it, you can save Luo Hua."
"It turns out that Master already knows everything."
There was some blame in my tone, blaming the master for not telling me earlier, which made Luo Hua suffer a lot. Luo Hua has paid too much for me, and I will do my best to save him.
Instead of getting angry at my reproachful tone, Master calmly told me:
"I already knew everything, but I will not be able to tell you until the time is ripe that it is your calamity, and you will always have to cross it yourself."
Yes, I should cross the calamity by myself, but Luo Hua bears everything for me.
"I'm sorry Master, I'm too worried about Luo Hua."
Master laughed and said,
"Silly girl, it's hard to buy him willingly, you don't have to blame yourself too much."
Master is back to his old naughty nature, and I know how he didn't get angry with me anymore.
"Master, I will find the original tears I need as soon as possible and rescue Luo Hua."
Master nodded and said,
"Master believes in you, you have always done what you say, Luo Hua also believes in you, you will definitely be able to save him. Actually, you know everything, you just forget. ”
My face was full of doubts, I don't remember well, I know, but I can't forget such an important thing. Since the last time Luo Hua helped me recover my memory, I am sure that I have not forgotten any important people and events, and I don't know why Master said this.
"Master, I have regained my memory, I haven't forgotten anything."
The master shook his head and didn't want to say more. Whether it is Master or Meng Po, they always like to talk half like this, and they also say that the secret of heaven cannot be revealed.
I took my leave to Master and said to Luo Hua's body:
"Luo Hua, wait for me, I will come back soon to save you."
After I finished speaking, I turned around and left, and the mandala of the eight hundred miles of Yellow Spring shook without wind.
