Chapter 15: The Great Yogi
Back to Bajiao Street, today's weather is good, although it is a cold winter, but it is still a big sun. Master went out to look at the goods, leaving me alone to look after the store, and I was idle and had nothing to do, just basking in the sun outside the store.
"There's only one sun in winter."
I heard this voice in my head, in Tibetan, which is a Tibetan slang phrase that I can understand, which means, when you are basking in the sun in winter, don't block other people's sun.
When I looked back, there was a person sitting behind me, this person was not very old, dressed in tatters, with a long beard on his face, red on the plateau, and dusty people, I knew that he was blaming me for blocking him from the sun. In fact, when I came to bask in the sun, there was no one behind me, and this person suddenly appeared in my shadow, obviously deliberately looking for trouble.
According to my character, I didn't want to argue with this strangely dressed man, so I took a few steps back to give him the sun.
But as soon as I took a few steps back, and had not yet lit a cigarette, I heard his voice in my head, "There is only one sun in winter," and when I looked back, he ran behind me again.
I was a little frightened at this point, because I didn't see how he got behind me at all, maybe I was distracted when I was holding a cigarette just now, and then I turned around and strode a dozen steps, glancing at him a few times as I walked to make sure he didn't follow.
Only then did I take out a lighter and light the cigarette, and just lit it and took a puff, and his sentence "There is only one sun in winter" came again, which scared me so much that the cigarette almost fell to the ground.
It is said that I walked for four or five seconds in ten or so steps, and it took me two seconds to light a cigarette, unless he sprinted with all his might, otherwise it would be impossible to run behind me so quickly.
This person should not be too old, less than forty years old, just a large beard plus the plateau red on his face and the tattered clothes on his body, which makes people misjudge his real age, looking closely, there are few wrinkles on his face, only a few wrinkles scattered in the corners of his eyes, the bridge of his nose is high, his eyes are not big but bright, like a clear lake, he wears a large string of Donkey Kong around his neck, full of dust and no color can be seen, and he is carrying a broken bag behind him, full of oil stains.
He didn't speak, slowly opened the backpack, took out a toba (also called gabala, skull bowl, tantric ritual instrument, made of the skull of a monk, friends who don't understand can Baidu), and took out a bag of tsampa from the bag, poured it into the toba, poured water again, reconciled the tsampa, saved a few times with his hands, and began to eat tsampa.
Sure enough, it's a master.
According to his performance, this person should be a yogi with advanced cultivation, and he has already comprehended the divine foot power of the six divine powers, otherwise it would not have been possible to follow me like a shadow, or he would have appeared suddenly.
At this moment, my heart was full of awe, on the other hand, this yogi felt very special to me, as if it was very familiar and very kind, but I knew that I didn't know him at all, and this was the first time we had met.
I tried to communicate with him, first I said "Hello" in Chinese, he was unmoved, probably because he didn't understand Chinese, and then I said "Gong Kangsang" (Tibetan for "hello"), but he still didn't respond. I didn't know what to do now, but after thinking for a while, I said "Howdoyoudo" again, but the master still didn't respond.
I didn't know what to say, so I just stood and watched him finish eating Tobari's tsamba, and he burped when he finished eating it, put Toba's bowl back in his backpack, looked up slightly, and looked at me.
I said in my heart, the master is full, do you want to guide me? He stood up, did not speak, and turned to leave.
I was hesitant to ask him any more instructions, maybe he could tell me the answers?
But I suddenly remembered the voice in my mind: "Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, things must be opposed, and it is better to ask for others than for yourself." ”。
Look at the yogi again, he has disappeared into the crowd.
Ouch I'll go, it's the legendary "He Heart"! He never spoke, but his meaning was visible in his mind. This yogi is indeed a master, and the "divine foot communication" and "his heart communication" in the six divine powers have been enlightened, as for other magical powers, not to mention for the time being, only these two divine powers are also immortal-like figures.
But I still don't understand what he wants to say, can't the master explain it clearly?
Drop the two words "blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, things must be opposed, and it is better to ask for others than for yourself", what is this? Literally, it's very simple, good things and bad things depend on each other, good things may get bad, bad things can get better, when it's too good, it will get bad, and when it's too bad, it will often turn good.
Everyone understands this truth, anyway, I don't have the feeling of enlightenment at all, but even more foggy.
After noon, when Master returned to the shop, I told Master about my encounter with the Yogi, and after listening to my detailed description, Master thought for a while and pinched his fingers.
"Master, didn't you see that you can pinch it?" I hurriedly asked.
"Ah no, I have a thorn in my finger, you go and get a flashlight to shine on me......"
I wish Master could be reliable once, but obviously, not this time. Then I took a flashlight and a needle and helped Master pick out the thorns.
Master stared at me again and said, "God closes a door for you, close a window with your hand......"
