Chapter 363: The Great Shift

"No one but me can solve the deadlock." The monk said, "You can't either." ”

"What kind of dead end is that?" Lin Xuan remained silent, "What are you here for?" ”

The monk's face moved with two sparse eyebrows: "It's the same as you, for the same purpose." ”

Lin Xuan was puzzled, but didn't ask, just stared at the other party's face.

This is the core battlefield of World War II, where the artillery fire is suspended, and the two sides are the Allies and the Nazis, both of whom are strictly outsiders, and the victory or defeat in history will not affect their lives. History is a hill that no one can shake, and it can only be piled up in the library for historians wearing reading glasses to search for chapters and sentences.

"See this Mani stone wall?" The monk pointed to the sides.

Lin Xuan nodded.

"You must think I'm helping them?" The monk asked.

Lin Xuan's heart moved, after all, the rumor that "the Nazi party leader is looking for the undead warriors of the axis of the earth" has existed for more than 70 years, and it has formed a fairly solid concept in the hearts of people of all countries, which is not easy to change.

"Wrong." The monk couldn't wait for Lin Xuan's answer, and categorically denied the question himself.

Lin Xuan looked left and right, and whispered something irrelevant to the situation in front of him: "In Tibet, I have seen many Mani piles and Mani stone walls, some of which are solemn and some are colorful, and all of them have left traces of Tibetan people worshipping Buddha and kneeling and bowing. Every time I see those, I am sincerely moved. ”

That's true, many tourists who have been to Tibet will consciously get out of the car and bow down when they see Mani Dui for the first time.

Manidui is the testimony of the ancestors of Tibet to worship God and Buddha, which will exist between heaven and earth forever, and is the belief of the Tibetan people, which deserves the respect of people all over the world.

Lin Xuan once visited the Xinzhai Mani pile next to Jiegu Town, the capital of Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai, which is made up of more than 2.5 billion Mani stones, the largest in the world, and has been recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. After more than 300 years of accumulation, the number of mani stones here is still increasing at a rate of 300,000 per year. These prayer stones vary in size and shape, from the large ones like a tabletop to the small ones like eggs, and they are all engraved with Buddha images or scriptures, the most common of which is, of course, the Tibetan "Six-Character Sutra".

Xinzhai Mani City was built in 1715 A.D., and the founder was the first Gana Living Buddha Sect to ask for Pavin, so it is also called "Gana Mani Dui". According to the relevant historical records, the living Buddha of Ghana is a Kham people, he has practiced in Mount Emei and Wutai Mountain, and then traveled around to worship the holy places in Tibet, more than 200 years ago when he came to Xinzhai Village, he found a piece of Mani stone that naturally appeared in the six-character scripture, so he lived in the village with this fate, and spent his life carving Mani stone with the monks and laymen.

After more than 300 years of continuous piling, Xinzhai Mani pile has formed a 283-meter-long east-west length, 74 meters wide from north to south, 3 meters high, covering an area of about 20,000 square meters, a ** field, a large prayer hall, two Buddhist halls, 10 large prayer wheels, more than 300 small prayer wheels, more than a dozen pagodas and the "stone city" containing more than 2.5 billion Mani stones.

This crystallization of human art no longer belongs only to Tibet and the Tibetan people, but to the spiritual wealth of the whole world and all mankind.

"A place on your mind?" The monk asked.

Lin Xuan smiled indifferently and did not follow the monk's topic, so as not to be manipulated by the other party's thoughts.

"Xinzhai Mani pile?" The monk asked again.

"So what? We are in Berlin, Europe, not in Qinghai in Chinese mainland? Lin Xuan asked rhetorically.

The Xinzhai Mani Pile has not been changed after the establishment of New China, and it still maintains its original appearance, so even if the monk came from the Great Snow Mountain 70 years ago, the Mani Pile seen at that time is no different from now.

"It's a great place, it's all-encompassing, it's independent of time and space, and anyone who enters it will be deeply moved." The monk said.

Lin Xuan had a lot of questions he wanted to raise, but he always kept silent, so as not to expose the flaws in his thoughts and make the other party control the situation.

He was an ordinary Han Chinese, while the monk was a practitioner in Tibetan Buddhism, and he happened to be able to exert strong pressure on Lin Xuan with the help of the power of the Mani stone pile, just as a fish in the ocean can devour a sailor, with the help of the mysterious power of nature.

As the so-called "strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake", the monk maintained the "geographical advantage", while Lin Xuan did not occupy any of the "three talents of heaven, earth and man".

"You agree with me, don't you?" The monk asked again.

Lin Xuan nodded lightly.

"So come and see, does the Mani stone wall here have something in common with the Xinzhai Mani pile?" The monk immediately asked.

Lin Xuan looked at the stone wall out of the corner of his eye, and the monk immediately said, "Don't worry, no one will take the opportunity to attack you." I dare to say that as long as you understand this stone wall, you will also understand my intention. ”

"Okay." Lin Xuan nodded, took two steps back, and looked at the stone wall.

As we all know, Mani Dui is composed of stones carved with Tibetan characters and various patterns, which condenses the wisdom and hard work of Tibetan craftsmen and people. The Mani stone of the carved statue is rich and colorful, the content is extensive, there are dragon, fish, sun and moon portraits that reflect the fetishism consciousness of this religion, and all kinds of bird heads and animal heads are carved in strange shapes, vividly; There are also traces that reflect the Buddhist consciousness, the eleven-faced thousand-armed and thousand-eyed Guanyin, the goddess of wonderful sound, Tara, the great Buddha Vajra, the power of the earth and various statues of the protector gods, and the statues of the heavenly kings, which are depicted vigorously and vividly; There are also statues that depict famous figures in religious history, such as Tsongkhapa, Padmasambhava, Manjushri, etc.

The contents of the Mani piles in various parts of Tibet are similar, but the carving process and stone materials are obviously different. An experienced monk or tourist can tell where a piece of Mani stone came from just by looking at it.

"You can pick up a rock and look at it carefully." The monk reminded.

Lin Xuan was a little confused, because he saw that the painting style of these Mani stones was very similar to the Mani pile in Xinzhai.

In Xinzhai Mani Dui, the carving style of Mani stone is completely different, the early lines are relatively simple and coarse, only focusing on the portrayal of the overall form, while the late carving is smooth and free, gradually delicate, and begins to pay attention to the depiction of detailed expressions. In particular, the Mani stones piled up after 1900 are exquisite paintings and works of art, among which there are many painstaking works of Tibetan and Han painting masters.

In terms of content, the early Mani stone mostly adopts plane relief, cut the bottom of the yang carving, and carves more birds, beasts, sun, moon, dragons, fish and Buddhist protectors, King Kong, etc., while the late ones are fine lines, focusing on depicting characters and flowers, paying more attention to decoration, and integrating rich secular life into the works.

The reason why Xinzhai Mani Dui can enter the Guinness Book of World Records while other Mani Dui in Tibet does not have this honor is because it has a long history, embraces the culture of various historical periods, and is eclectic, just like the sea and rivers.

Lin Xuan watched attentively for a few minutes, and his heart became more and more confused: "Why does the Mani stone wall here look so similar to the Mani pile in Xinzhai?" It won't be—"

He thought of an almost mythical kung fu in Tibetan Buddhism, but it was a long-lost miracle that modern people had only heard of and had never mastered.

That kind of kung fu, the full name is called "Vicissitudes of the Sea, Tian Dou, Turning the Stars, Moving the Universe, and Shifting the Divine Skill".
