After listening to the sound of the Buddha horn and sutra all day, my head was churning like paste; During the day, I exert my mental strength, and my mental strength can be described as dripping!

"My strength is gone, and it disappeared in three years...... "This is the biggest thunderbolt I have ever gotten, and now I am not even qualified to fight hard with others."

Wait for the night to be late, listen to the birdsong, watch the sun go down in the courtyard, watch the moon rise, watch the night get darker.

"Lord Muyi, it's time to eat," Ananda brought to me a bowl of soup mixed with green leaves and unknown berries.

I frowned slightly, a little displeased, "Do you usually eat these to live?" "Looking at what is in front of me, I really don't have the slightest appetite.

"Poor monks only have these to eat, monks fast, can't eat meat" Ananda is also embarrassed.

I looked at Ananda, who looked withered and thin, and there was no more flesh left on his body without bones; Looking at the vegetable leaves and berries in the bowl, my heart is much more relaxed; Feeling embarrassed, I hurriedly thanked "Ahem, thank you Master Ananda, thank you Master Ananda, thank you Master Ananda."

I took a bite of the vegetable leaves in my mouth, a fragrance of willow leaves lingered in my mouth, it was not bitter, it was not delicious, the usual taste was like ordinary life, the white berries were gently bitten, a white slurry flowed into the mouth, a slight sweet and sour taste, with a little coolness of the fruit, so that the meal was instantly delicious a lot, after eating a mouthful of rice, before I swallowed it all, my eyes had revealed a glimmer of approval, and the previous disdain for the meal made me ashamed.

"The leaves are picked from the willow leaves in the courtyard, placed in the altar and soaked in mountain spring water for seven days, without seeing the sun or the air, brewing by themselves, and starting to dispel bitterness and aroma; The berries are picked in front of the Buddha and offered to the fruit, and the sweetness of the Buddha nature has been preserved for a long time, "Ananda watched me eat one bite at a time, and I was also explaining sentence by sentence.

"So, how do you pick a willow tree that is so tall? Where do berries grow? When and what season do you want to pick it up, and how to store it? "I asked the question without thinking.

"Everything has a Buddha-nature aura, and the birds that live on the willow trees go out every day, and they will always pick back more than ten bunches of berries, leave them for food, and put the rest in front of the Buddha; I took a branch and put it under the stupa, and I watered it with water every day, and some of it grew. As for the leaves, or the birds and beasts, or the breeze sent down, a day to send a day of food, no more, no less" Ananda explained the reason for the food clearly, all the food is not a trace of blood, even the dust and fireworks are not worshipped, the only fireworks should be the incense in front of the Buddha.

"Muyi's donor can still eat habits?" Master Ananda's voice sounded, and after listening to it for a day, the original sound that was not very pleasant was also used to listening.

"I'm used to eating, I'm used to eating, and it's still very palatable!" I smiled and showed my kindness to Ananda.

I ate the rice one bite at a time, and after a while, I saw the bottom of the bowl.

"Mu Yi donor, but do you want another bowl?"

"No need, thank you Master Ananda" After eating, I reluctantly got up and bowed. Set the dishes and chopsticks aside and look at the thick moonlight. "Did Master Ananda eat at night?"

"Buddhism has a rule, don't eat at noon, don't eat at noon." Ananda was smiling, and his withered face was cuter than it had been in the morning.

"Then Master Ananda, you said that in the past, people died, and there was a netherworld; Where do people go when they die? "I looked at the moon with the moon in my eyes.

"When a person dies, he is no longer a human being, or he becomes a ghost, or he becomes a demon, he changes into something else, he will no longer be a human being, he will never be reincarnated again, because the blessings are exhausted" Master Ananda said about the changes in this world, this world has the birth of life, but if a person dies, he is no longer human.

"Is it true that everyone in this world can gain strength through their own efforts?"

"Not really, the blessed will gain greater strength, or there are ordinary people"

"Then look at your records, why don't you find a trace of the existence of ordinary people?" I asked casually, but I didn't expect Master Ananda to be speechless for a while.

"Amitabha, my Buddha is compassionate" Ananda clasped his hands together, as if he was repenting, as if he was praying. I looked at Ananda's expression, and my heart was even more confused.

"Ordinary people, ordinary people, the Buddha said that it is unspeakable, it cannot be said, and it should not be asked" Ananda's eyes were sad, as if he had committed a great sin.

"Master Ananda, don't be too sad" I looked at Ananda with a look of compassion, thinking that I had touched Ananda's pain, and hurriedly comforted and persuaded me.

"Mu Yi's donor is not in the way, and the cause will be fruitful!" Ananda's heart hurts, and this pain belongs to Buddhism, to all people in the world!

"That, that; Master Ananda, you mourn "When you comfort others, you feel the pale and powerless of words for the first time.

Looking at the night, looking at Ananda, I felt that the endless darkness was rushing towards me, and the heaviness of the black pressure pressed on my heart, and I couldn't get the slightest respite.

"Master Ananda, am I an ordinary person now?" I asked, consciously or unconsciously.

"Master Mu Yi is now as usual as an ordinary person" Ananda's eyes, the man in white clothes, white hair and white eyebrows in front of him will no longer have any power.

With tears in my eyes, my eyes were red, and I swallowed the tears back into my stomach after a little endurance, "Then, Master Ananda, when will I be able to practice again, and when will my strength come back?"

"Please mourn on the Lord'......s Day"

Listening to the word mourning, the bright intersection leading to the future in front of me was blocked by the ruthless black pressure, and the two words mourning have never been so powerful as now. The word mourning is more like a spell to stab people to death, stabbing me and stabbing Master Ananda.

"Whether it's an ordinary person or not, it's just a lifetime and a hundred years," Master Ananda admonished, and there was a long sigh in the exhortation.

"Isn't it true that people who have achieved cultivation will not live a long life, prolong their lives, and live forever?" I don't understand, it stands to reason that those who have achieved cultivation should live forever, not to mention that in the original village, there were still old poplars who flew into immortals, isn't it true?

"No, how can there be any immortality, if you can really cultivate to immortality, how can there be relics in the relics pagoda, they should all live!" Ananda's smile was miserab, and tears were in his eyes.

"People will live, they will live longer than before; Is it just the length of time that determines the quality of your life? Mu Yi! Ananda looked at me with an incredibly determined gaze.

"yes? Does the length of time determine the quality of life? "In the past, it was said that life is short, and everyone didn't care, what they cared about was to broaden the width, depth, and breadth of life. Who cares about the length of life?

I listened to Ananda's words and fell into deep thought in the night. My thoughts were wandering, what should be what I should be looking for.

I looked at Master Ananda and clearly felt the light in my eyes, "Master Ananda, what can I help you do here?" ”

Ananda staggered to his feet, beating his back and walking towards the main hall, "The courtyard has not been cleaned for a long time, so let's start by cleaning the courtyard and watering it." ”

Watching Ananda leave, I sighed in my heart, "It turns out that people will still grow old!" ”

The lamp is not always on, and there is no eternal life!
