Chapter 393: Is There a Buddha?

"It's not good for you to say bad things about your master, if you hear it, it will be troublesome." Li Xing said with a smile.

"It's fine." Neng Ren said nonchalantly: "My master is still chanting in the main hall, and it will take a while to come." ”

"Really?"

As soon as Nengren's words fell, a voice that was a little old, but full of vitality sounded behind him, hearing this, Nengren was like a mouse seeing a cat, he trembled, his face showed a sad expression, and then he turned around and pleaded and said, "Master, why did you come so quickly!" ”

"Yes! How else can I hear you! Fahai glared at Nengren fiercely, and then stepped forward and saluted Li Xing and said, "Amitabha, I have seen the donor." ”

Li Xing also returned the salute with a smile and said, "I've seen Zen Master Fahai." ”

"It's really brilliant that Lord Merlin can come here, please." Fahai invited with a flat expression.

Li Xing is not polite, originally came here to play, striding towards the interior of Jinshan Temple, Jinshan Temple is very large, you must know that the whole mountain is Jinshan Temple, the mountain gate, the Daxiong Treasure Palace, the Zen Temple, the Discipline Academy, the bell tower, the wing room, etc., just Li Xing worships the Buddha statue is a complete variety, but the main thing is the Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, etc., Li Xing Fahai led Li Xing and each Buddha statue are on a stick of incense, although the infinite god system and the major gods are the existence of enemies, but it does not prevent Li Xing from respecting the Buddha, You must know that when Li Xing had not yet transferred to the "Ten Thousand Beasts Heavenly Scripture", what Li Xing practiced was Buddhism, and in general, Li Xing could be regarded as half a Buddhist person.

Looking at the many Buddha statues decorated with gold powder, Li Xing suddenly asked Fahai on the side: "Zen Master Fahai, there is something unclear below, please ask Zen Master to solve your doubts." ”

Fahai glanced at Li Xing and said with a Buddha name, the meaning is obvious, that is, say it quickly.

"The Zen master practices Buddhism in this Jinshan Temple, which can be described as a high-ranking monk, I wonder if the Zen master has ever seen the Buddha?" Li Xing shook his head and asked.

This is what Li Xing wants to know the most at present, although the illusion world is the condensation of many consciousnesses, but the strength of them is different, the fragile world may only be a mortal world, and the higher ones such as the illusion world here, Bai Suzhen and Fahai have reached the level of the tribulation, as long as they survive this tribulation, they can fly to become immortals.

Therefore, Li Xing wanted to see if their world was real or illusory, because Li Xing forgot that he had heard a legend somewhere, saying that the gods of the heavens were boundless, maybe a thought was a world, Li Xing wanted to see if this illusory world was formed by an idea of the legendary gods.

"Buddha?" Fahai smiled slightly, Fahai didn't feel the meaning of Li Xing's question, and even many mortals had asked him these questions.

"The Buddha is in the heart."

Li Xing sneered and said, "Buddha in the heart? Haha, are you satisfied with this answer, Zen master, you should know that this is not what I want. ”

"People are the future Buddha, the Buddha is the former person, why should the donor be obsessed with the problem of Buddha and people, everyone has Buddha nature in their hearts, maybe the next Buddha is the donor." Fahai still said with Li Xing.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that Zen Master Fahai still practiced Mahayana Buddhism, so do you know that if you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and you haven't spent it yourself, how can you spend it on others?" Li Xing said with a sneer.

Li Xing wanted to say more about who was who was in Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism, but seeing that Fahai had been playing meditation with himself without telling him anything, Li Xing was a little angry.

Fahai glanced at Li Xing in surprise and continued: "Saving others is saving yourself, giving roses to others has a lingering fragrance, which is also a kind of practice. ”

"Zen Master Fahai, I don't want to play meditation with you, I just want to know if there is a Buddha in this world? And where are they? Why have I never seen one? Li Xing asked quickly.

"The Buddha is in your heart, if you believe in him, you will have it, if you don't believe it, he will not have it." Fahai said with a smile on his face.

At this time, Li Xing's mood was already very bad, and he glanced at Fahai coldly, Li Xing didn't speak, and walked forward, leaving a confused and bearable feeling.

"Master, what's wrong with Lord Merlin?" Nengshi touched his smooth head and asked.

Fahai shook his head and smiled, and quickly followed, leaving a more confused ability to bear.

Li Xing's steps walked in the temple, looking at the monks coming and going, the unconsciously angry in his heart was even greater, and before he walked to a large hall, two poems or two verses were engraved on both sides of the tall portal.

The one on the left was written by Shenxiu:

"Like a Bodhi tree,"

"The heart is like a mirror."

"Always flick it,"

"Don't get dusty."

The one on the right is one by the Sixth Ancestor Huineng:

"Bodhi has no tree,"

"Neither is Spiegel."

"There was nothing,"

"Where is the dust?"

It is impossible to say which of the two verses is good or bad, mainly depending on the person, but if you want to say that the artistic conception is far-reaching, the second song is the most.

When the five ancestors of the Northern and Southern Dynasties Hongren gradually grew old, their children sat down to Shenxiu as the most, and it is also the most likely to form a Zen mantle, the old master Hongren wanted his disciples to take over his mantle, and then said to the disciples to let everyone make a Zen poem, Shenxiu wanted to inherit the mantle, but was worried that his purpose was too obvious, contrary to the Buddhist realm, so he got up in the middle of the night and wrote this poem on the courtyard wall. The body is like a Bodhi tree's famous verse, this verse is very good, very good, the whole temple knows that this is done by Shenxiu, and also knows Shenxiu's thoughts, and admires Shenxiu very much.

However, Shenxiu's thoughts did not quite match the teachings of the Mahayana sect of Zen Buddhism, and Master Hongren saw that Shenxiu had not yet had an epiphany, and then did not make any comments.

Just when everyone was discussing this matter, a fire-headed monk in the kitchen Huineng also heard this verse, Huineng was illiterate and illiterate, but after hearing this verse, he said that this person had not yet comprehended the true meaning of Buddhism, and then made a poem himself, begging others to engrave it next to the song of Shenxiu, that is, the song of 'Bodhi Ben Wushu'.

When Master Hongren saw it, he asked who wrote it, and the people on the side said that it was written by Huineng, so Master Hongren called Huineng and said in front of everyone: "The writing is messy and nonsense. And wiped it off himself, then hit Huineng on the head three times and turned to leave.

Everyone was laughing at Hui Neng, only Hui Neng himself understood the meaning of Master Hongren, so he went to Master Hongren's meditation room at night during the third watch, where Master Hongren explained to him the "Diamond Sutra" the most classic Buddhist scripture in Buddhism, and passed the mantle to him, and then in order to prevent Shenxiu from harming Hui Neng, let Hui Neng escape to the south of the road overnight to live in seclusion, ten years later Hui Neng founded the Putian Shaolin Temple in the south.
