Example 29: The Patriarch's Teachings
(Thanks to Shunyun Daoyou)
Preface:
In our place, there are five people in our sect: me, my master, my uncle, and my two senior brothers.
In this place, we say that no one is afraid, but we are afraid of the old way of the back mountain.
This old Taoist lives in our place called Houshan, and he specializes in cultivating the Fa, so outside of us, he is highly respected in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of the five of us and other Taoist friends, he is like a worm growing on his body, threatening us all the time, and he is targeting the five of us everywhere.
Body:
This old Taoist father used to share the same altar with my master, so his father and my master were still brothers, but because of some unsatisfactory things, the altar was divided. As for things, I'll do an update when I have a chance.
Lao Dao's father used to be a very high Taoist mage, and he was able to put evil spirits from another place into the altar at home and then do super, I just entered the Tao and listened to his story and admired him very much.
Once, when he was burning incense at home to worship the patriarch, he sensed that there was an evil spirit cultivating in a place called Hutougang in our place, but this evil spirit did not enter the right path and took the wrong path.
So, Lao Dao's father cast a spell to collect this evil spirit from the top of Hutougang and put it in the magic jar. In the past, it was necessary to refine the Dharma Jar for 7749 days before it could be released to see the creation and cultivation of this spirit, if it changed, let him continue to cultivate, if not, he had to accept it and practice again.
When Lao Dao's father was cultivating to the forty-seventh day, a phone call suddenly came and he wanted to go to another place to do something, so Lao Dao's father called Lao Dao and said, "I'm going out to do something, you watch the stove fire for me, don't let it go out, wait two days, just open the jar." ”
After hearing this, Lao Dao felt that it was very simple and agreed.
After the explanation, the old father got up and left.
And this old Taoist was very playful when he was a child, and he took care of the fire in the stove from time to time on the first day, and on the second day, Lao Dao suddenly thought of an idea: why not add more fire, and let the fire be lit directly, so that I don't have to run back and forth so troublesomely. So he added a lot of fire, and then left. When I came back on the third day, I saw that the fire in the stove was still burning, so I was very proud of my own way.
But he forgot the time when his father explained how to open the vat.
A few days later, Lao Dao's father came back and saw that the jar seemed to have not been opened, so he called Lao Dao and asked, "Have you opened this jar?" ”
When Lao Dao heard this, he was immediately shocked and said anxiously: "Father, I forgot about this matter. "Old-fashioned
When my father heard this, he hurriedly ran over to open the jar and looked, and the evil spirit had already been burned to ashes. Lao Dao's father knew that he had committed a big incident, so he shook his head and left.
That night, Lao Dao's father called Lao Dao and said, "Xiaoyue, my father is not long dead, but I don't want my technique to be lost, now I will pass him on to you, you or?" If you do, you're going to follow my path. ”
When Lao Dao heard this, he was very happy, he didn't think of how to save people or super ghosts, so he hastily agreed to ask for it under the idea of having good skills and not worrying about food in the future.
So my father gave Lao Dao a way to cultivate, because his own altar body was prominent, and his cultivation was very fast. That's it.,It's not long before Lao Dao's father passed away.,This is what I listened to my uncle.,Because of playfulness.,Lao Dao hurt his father.,Next, I'm going to start talking about our affairs.。
This was shortly after I entered the Tao
Because we were living at my master's house at that time, we were having dinner together that afternoon, and suddenly Master's mobile phone rang, and when we picked it up, we heard that it was the son of the old Tao who had passed away, and although the old man was a threat to us, we had to pretend to respect him, but in fact he hated it, and if we wanted to say that we hated it, we could say that we were afraid.
After my master hung up the phone, he asked me to call and inform my brothers and uncles to go up the mountain to help together.
I answered and went to the phone.
On the second day, the five of us gathered at Master's house, and then we set off together for the back mountain.
When we were about to arrive at his house, we saw a large number of Taoist friends, a scene that is not usually seen.
Slowly we arrived at the old Taoist.
When the old man saw us, he was very polite at first, and said, "You are here." ”
My uncle answered: "Well, here it is." ”
Then we were very busy while we set up the altar.
When it was almost time to ask for water, Uncle Shi was older, so he sat there smoking a cigarette, and the old man suddenly came out and said, "What are you calling for?" Add to the block! ”
As soon as I heard this, I hurriedly put down the work in my hand, and I didn't get angry. I wanted to rush over and ask him what he meant, but I was stopped by my master and my brothers, because I was young at that time, so I was very impulsive.
I am very aggrieved, wronged for my uncle, I know that this sentence is like a knife cut for my uncle. And in the case of so many people, when he said this completely hurtful sentence, my uncle took off the cigarette in his hand and said, "Since it is blocked, then I will go." ”
The old way became more and more energetic: "If you want to leave, why did you come here just now?" ”
I was really angry, I remember that at that time, I was holding a magic weapon called Luo, and I threw it on the ground, making a loud noise, walked over, glared at the old way, pulled my uncle and walked out, and said viciously: "Senior brother, you can't go, if you don't go, block it here!" ”
They knew that there was a thorn in my words, and I even knew that it was very disrespectful for me to shout at Master, but I didn't mean anything, I just wanted to persuade them to leave and not let others see the joke.
Seeing that I was so excited, the old man didn't say anything, turned around and left.
So the five of us went down the mountain.
After arriving at the master's house, the master said with a face full of grievances and anger: "What is this called, if it wasn't for his apprentice calling me, I would have gone, wouldn't I?" went, and said that I was blocked, you said that he is a person, what is the use of the law being high? ”
My master said, "Shunyun, how could you have lost your temper like that just now. ”
When I heard this, I was even more angry: "Master, I came with you to learn things, not to be angry with you" I also knew that Master was worried, but at that time, I was too excited, so I spoke very impulsively.
I think it's also because of my uncle's grievances that made me very uncomfortable, and I almost didn't get out of my eyes in a hurry, and the two senior brothers were even more speechless.
In this way, everyone went back one after another, and when the people were gone, I said sorry to the master, and went upstairs to light incense and worship the ancestors.
After worshipping the patriarch, it was getting dark, because I was in a bad mood, I lay on the bed and tossed and turned, thinking about the morning all the time, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became, but the anger had nowhere to spill, and I slowly fell asleep unconsciously.
At this time, I found that the five of us were together again, and the difference was that there were five little boys around me, all wearing Taoist clothes, and their hands were making rituals, and then they led the way in front, and the five of us followed behind.
It's strange that the five of us didn't speak at this time, I wanted to say something, but I couldn't, I felt like it was a dream, but it was so real.
After a while, the five boys stopped, and I looked up: Pu'an Hall.
Oh my God, this ......
We walked in, and there was an old man inside with his back to us and didn't let us look at his face.
He said slowly: "Send your disciples, you must remember that you treat people like a low building when you are alive, and after you die, the foundation of the house will be grassy. Do not be afraid, let alone be rash. The cycle of heavenly principles, everything has a cause and its own effect. “
After saying that, he slowly turned his head, and when I was about to see his face clearly, I suddenly woke up from my dream.
When I woke up this time, my whole body felt comfortable and refreshed, and I looked outside that it was already dawn. I thought about it again: by the way, I still have to go out today, so I quickly ran downstairs and washed up.
At this time, a lazy voice came from the master's room and said, "Shunyun, why are you so early today?" “
I said, "Master, don't you still have to do something today?" “
Master smiled and said, "It's to do things, but it's just to invite water for dinner." ”
When I heard this, I stopped washing my face, put the towel on the shelf, and ran upstairs to sleep.
In the afternoon, after we had eaten, we went to the client's house and set up an altar to do things.
The ritual went smoothly until that night, after we had dinner, and everyone was sitting there chattering, and I suddenly thought of the dream I had last night.
I said to everyone: "I dreamed of the ancestor last night. ”
Everyone turned their faces around when they heard this, and this scene startled me, and I said, "What are you doing?" ”
At this time, Uncle Shi said: "Shunyun, I think everyone dreamed of that dream last night, so don't say it." ”
I think so, after all, the five of us were together last night.
Then we continued to do the rituals and went back, and it wasn't long before the news came that another crazy son had died.
Although I hate this old way, I also feel sorry for it, after all, this old way is only these two sons, and his wife also left him early because of some things, so the old way is left alone.
He also knew that none of the five of us would want to go again this time, otherwise it would be boring to ourselves, so he didn't invite us to the French style again.
Until now, the old way does the second thing, the asking price is very high, and he is bent on getting into the eyes of money, and when he sees a rich person, he will get closer, and he will ignore it when he encounters a request for money without money. Because he is strong in law and his business is very good, he has to find all kinds of people. But his body is not as good as before, and he relies on his apprentices to write or something, I think this is retribution.
Friendly reminder: After reading the story told by Shunyun, I think everyone has any feelings, and Shunyun also asked me to give everyone the words of the patriarch for their own understanding, and when I realized it, it was like getting thousands of gold and silver. "Treat people like a low-rise building in life, and after death, the foundation of the house will be grassy." Of course, I think each of them has their own understanding.
My personal perception is still shallow, and I communicated with Shunyun, and I said that my understanding is to treat people and things, not to divide into three, six, nine, etc., to treat everyone, to be equal, to be kind to people, and to be kind. If you choose how to treat people in life based on their background, money, and status, you won't be disrespected after death.
The deeper meaning of Shunyun will not tell me, I hope to leave a suspense and space for everyone to play their own feelings!
