This sounds inconceivable to ordinary people, but it is not difficult to believe in the eyes of Esoteric practitioners.

Through years of cultivation, a practitioner has gathered a tremendous amount of energy in his body, and when he is faced with death, he transforms his physical body into the light that originally composed his body, and the color body dissolves in the light, and then disappears completely.

Depending on the method being practiced, the process of iridescence will also appear differently in the practitioner. There are two more common types: one is that before the end of his life, the practitioner asks to be alone and not to touch his body for seven days after death. The room will be filled with a strange rainbow of light. By the eighth day, the room was opened, only to see that the practitioner's body had disappeared, leaving only hair and nails. The other is to be alone, and also to allow the disciples of the personal transmission to be around, and the practitioner sits cross-legged as usual, and the body spontaneously combusts, and a rainbow rushes into the sky.

Qinghai Chalang Monastery Lang Lama Qiu Qi Duojie, he died decades ago, his body shrunk to a small arm's height, cremated into a ten-centimeter-high vajra body, has been enshrined in the stupa of Chalang Temple. Lang Lama's autumn anger is more Jie's younger brother called Lang Lama Qiu Jieri, before his death, through the wall, followers, come and go freely, can cross the Yellow River freely without any ride, he also passed away in Chalang Temple a few decades ago. Also, in 1945, the living Buddha of Dabuzha was also honghua in Chalang Temple, and in 1951, the living Buddha of Bugos was rainbowized in Chalang Temple. In 1958, due to the influence of the situation in Tibet at that time, the living Buddha of Chalang Temple, Adam Langmu, was mistakenly arrested and put into a labor camp, and once did not come out of the house for several days, which attracted the attention of the correctional cadres, pushed the door in, and found that the living Buddha had passed away, and his body had shrunk to the height of a small arm. The living Buddha can follow the soil and come and go freely during his lifetime. More recently, in 1993, after the death of the living Buddha of Chalang Temple, the five-colored relics were cremated.

There are also many rainbow cultivators in other parts of Tibetan areas. In 1952, when Derge Yilong Suolang Namgyal Honghua, the then secretary of the Tibetan District Party Committee and Tibet's upper-class figure Thubten Nyima and many other people were present, and personally witnessed a living Buddha "Honghua" leaving. A total of 13 people, including the Great Enlightener, Tuyan Lingba and his disciples, have all been rainbowized. In 1883, Rinzen Pema? Jacques and his disciple Yang Rik rainbow at Minzhulin Monastery, and after the rainbow, their bodies shrunk to the size of their little fingers. In 1935, the Zhaba local Weise also disappeared. In 1969, the Living Buddha of Oweilu in Yangtang County and the Naxi Khenpo Lehuo Buddha in Banma County passed away in Xiuguo Monastery and Zhiqin Monastery respectively, and their bodies were reduced to about 30 centimeters high. In 1983, after the death of the living Buddha of Khenpo Salton of Nianlong Monastery in Seda County, his body was also reduced to the height of his forearm, and after cremation, a five-colored relic appeared.

There are many historical records about the relics, and some people have witnessed the transformation of the high monk Honghua into a Buddha, but all these things happened in Tibet.

Miao Weiqiang and Dong Tinghua were shocked, but Zhou Tianyi was a little disappointed, he thought that he could learn about the location of the relics pagoda in the mouth of the Mijia Living Buddha, but he didn't expect that this living Buddha would become a Buddha before he finished speaking.

With a feeling of reverence for the gods and Buddhas, the three of them followed the two old lamas out of the cave, where should they go to find the stupa next?

"Three donors, the living Buddha has been transformed into a Buddha, if you still have any questions, you can find the little living Buddha to solve!" An old lama said.

"This... There is also a small living Buddha here! Dong Tinghua asked in surprise, wondering how many living Buddhas there are in this world, the twin-tailed scorpion is the reincarnation of a living Buddha, there is a living Buddha who has just been rainbowized, and now there is a small living Buddha.

The three of them followed the two old lamas to a simple room, in which a six- or seven-year-old child was knocking on a huge 'wooden fish', which was more than one meter long and more than half a meter, and this little lama should be the little living Buddha that the two old lamas said.

Dong Tinghua, Miao Weiqiang, and Zhou Tianyi all saw such a big wooden fish for the first time, and the little lama sat in front of the huge wooden fish and looked asymmetrical.

Wooden fish, which belongs to the percussion instrument. At first, it was used as a Buddhist and Taoist congregation to gather congregation, preach scriptures and fast.

The wooden fish is in the shape of a clump fish, with a hollow abdomen, a central opening of the head, a coiled tail, a head and a shrunken tail, a sloped back (percussion site), triangular on both sides, and an oval bottom; Wooden gas, olive-shaped head, shaped like a fish.

Wooden fish vary in size and pitch. The large wooden fish used in the temple have a diameter of about 40 centimeters on the front and the largest one is over 90 centimeters. The small wooden fish has a diameter of only 4 centimeters, and is only used in the Buddhist ritual "Wrapping the Lotus" (Wrapping the Buddha Hall).

Wooden fish is a kind of wood product that resembles the shape of a fish head, which appeared very early in China, but the recorded history is relatively late. This special artifact is not only found in temples. As early as the Ming and Qing dynasties, wooden fish has been used in court music, Kunqu opera and folk music. Usually large wooden fish are made of mulberry wood or Tsubaki wood, and the maximum surface diameter can reach more than 40 cm, and the sound produced is relatively low. Small wooden fish are generally made of sandalwood or mahogany, and have a higher pronunciation. The wooden fish used in temples are roughly divided into two types: one is round and the other is elongated. Generally speaking, round bonito come in a variety of sizes, while long bonito are mostly around one meter.

There is also a legend about the origin of the wooden fish, far away in the Han Dynasty, the emperor sent Master Ciguang and two monks to the west to learn the scriptures, after a lot of hardships, on the way back to the scriptures, when the boat rowed, suddenly the wind and waves were fierce, a vicious fish opened its mouth and pounced towards the boat, the scriptures on the bow of the boat were swallowed by the big fish, the two monks jumped into the sea to fight with the big fish, ended the life of the big fish and dragged it to the bow of the boat. In an instant, the wind and waves were calm, the sun was shining, and the body of the big fish turned into sewage and flowed into the sea, leaving only the head of the fish on the bow of the boat. Ciguang master and apprentice returned to the Buddhist temple with the big fish head, and in order to return the scriptures, he knocked the big fish head every day and recited "Amitabha Buddha..." ”。 Day after day, the big fish's head was knocked to pieces, and then I had to make a wooden one in the shape of the big fish's head, and beat it every day. In this way, knocking on the wooden fish and chanting sutras has become a Buddhist habit.

The two old lamas respectfully saluted the little living Buddha in front of the door!

The little living Buddha who was tapping the wooden fish and chanting scriptures turned his head to look at Zhou Tianyi, Miao Weiqiang, and Dong Tinghua, and then turned his head to stare at the two old lamas and asked, "Master... Master, has the rainbow become a Buddha? ”

"Yes, the master has ascended to Elysium!" An old lama replied.

"Om, well, what, horn, mic, huh..." The little living Buddha chanted the six-character mantra, and his face was full of joy, as if he was not sad about the departure of the Living Buddha Miga. (To be continued.) )
