Chapter Seventy-Eight: Heavenly Eyes

I looked at Wang Qiang in surprise, and he smiled at me and said, "Xiaomo, don't be surprised. Think about it, the two of us have to cooperate to go up this ladder, and when we reach the top of the ladder, I will step on your shoulders and go up, and when we get to the top, I will pull you up as well. Then this huge wealth belongs to both of us! ”

I hesitated, "Why do you want to choose me?" I'm not very tall! ”

Wang Qiangha said with a smile: "Xiaomo, you have not been involved in officialdom deeply. If you look at them, nodding their heads all day long, can their waists still stand upright? Only you, who still have a conscience and blood, can straighten your back. ”

Only then did I understand what he meant, and said worriedly: "Wang Qiang, after you climb up, will you leave me alone?" ”

Wang Qiang patted me on the shoulder and said, "How is this possible? The two of us are now living and dying together, if you help me do my best, I will also vote for Li and pull you up! ”

After Wang Qiang's good words, I had no choice but to agree to his plan. We came to the bottom of the ladder, and according to his guidance, I climbed the ladder first, and after climbing into the mysterious clouds, I saw the top of the ladder, and sure enough, it was a distance of a man to the top of the mountain.

Wang Qiang told me to get ready and told me to bow down. He also climbed the ladder and stepped on my shoulder. With Wang Qiang's encouragement, I stabilized my mind, carefully straightened my waist, and finally sent Wang Qiang to the top of the mountain.

Wang Qiang smiled and stretched out his hand to me, and said loudly: "Xiaomo, you can come up too!" The treasure is ours! ”

This sentence was like a shot in the arm for me, and a huge sense of excitement instantly replaced the fear and uneasiness in my heart. I stretched out my hand, grabbed Wang Qiang's hand, and slowly climbed up.

When I stepped on the last level of the ladder, Wang Qiang suddenly said with a surprised look on his face: "Hey, Xiaomo, what do you think it is?" ”

He pointed behind me in surprise, and I looked back unconsciously. I saw that the surroundings were gray, as if the ladder was set up in a dark cloud out of thin air. The crowd at the foot of the mountain was no longer there, and a feeling of terrible silence enveloped me.

At that moment, I suddenly leaned back and a large hand pushed me. My feet suddenly stomped into the air, my head was dizzy, and my whole body was like a boulder, quickly falling towards the bottomless valley.

I turned my back to the scab, my limbs wide open, and the sound of the wind in my ears reminded me that I was about to fall into the endless abyss. I'm going to die, and I'm so frightened that I have a word of repentance in my heart?

The cruelty and horror of the official career finally made me embark on this road of no return. However, it was too late, and I never had a chance to start again.

Just as I was almost fainting from despair, I suddenly felt a soft force hold me, and the sound of the wind in my ears had stopped. Am I dead? I slowly opened my eyes, and then I found that there was a golden light all around me, and I was sitting cross-legged on a large mountain rock.

I looked around in horror, and an old but kind voice came into my ears: "Mo Xun, do you regret the official trip just now?" ”

You can't see anyone, you can only hear his voice. Though I was terrified, the voice was unusually kind, and I was eager to see this mysterious figure. I said slowly, "You...... Who are you? I wasn't interested in being an official in the first place. After what I just experienced, I regretted it even more. From then on, I never wanted to be an official again. ”

The voice smiled and said, "Who am I?" I am you. ”

I was astonished, and there was a flash of gold in front of me, and I saw a lama in a big red robe sitting cross-legged in front of me like me. That lama and I really look alike, but he's older.

He smiled slightly and said, "Mo Xun, I am your heart." You are very human, but the world has clouded your heart with dust. What you have to go through now is for you to see through this red dust and regain your lost heart. When your heart is found, you will restore your great powers, subdue the demons, and restore peace to the world. ”

I was stunned for a long time before I asked, "Am I not dead?" The official journey just now was terrible! ”

The other one I smiled and said, "You're dead, but you're not dead." It's only your lust that dies! Many people are confused by the desire for power, and do not hesitate to dig out their minds, and even go up the camp with no conscience. Because of your deep roots, you are already indifferent to your career, and you have experienced a lot of things, and you have finally seen it. This official journey is nothing more than a lot of illusions about the past. Do you recognize this? This path of power is like climbing this mountain. The higher you climb, the more difficult it becomes, and people's conscience will be subjected to many tests and all kinds of deceit. ”

I cried with joy: "Great, I'm not dead, I'm really not dead!" ”

The me, that is, the lama, said, "Not only are you not dead, but you have also inspired your inner heavenly eye." ”

I was surprised and said, "What is this Heavenly Eyesight?" Can you tell me a little bit about it? ”

The lama said: "The Heavenly Eye, commonly known as the Heavenly Eye, is a special visual ability that the root of the eye has as described in our Buddhism. The eye of the sky, in the eye of the color world of the four major pure color, is the name of the eye of the sky. As seen by the eyes of heaven, all living beings and things in the six realms from the earth and below, if they are near or far, if they are covered with fine colors, they cannot be illuminated. ”

"Tianyantong is also one of the five links, which is the special visual ability of the root of the eye. It is also known as Tianyan Zhitong or Tianyan Token, which is the supernatural power of the two worlds of lust and color with the eye of heaven. ”

"There is a difference between retribution and cultivation. Retribution is what is obtained by birth, and cultivation is obtained after practice. The Heavenly Eye in the 'Five Eyes' is the overall retribution and cultivation, while the Heavenly Eye in the 'Five Links' is only cultivated rather than repaid. In addition, depending on the position of the bodhisattva and the arhat, the heavenly eye also sees different realms. ”

I interjected curiously, "Then which one does my Tianyantong belong to?" ”

The red-clothed lama smiled and said, "You are the illusory body of the immovable Ming King, and you must have possessed the great power of the Heavenly Eye in your previous life. So you are rewarded, but in this life you are blinded by the world, so it depends on you to go through a lot of things to regain enlightenment, and this is again for cultivation. In this way, you are based on retribution, and cultivation is supplementary! ”

When I heard the red-clothed lama talk about bodhisattvas and arhats, I excitedly asked, "Then am I really a bodhisattva or an arhat?" ”

The red-clothed lama said: "The Dharma Body Bodhisattva purifies all desires in the eyes of the heavens, and the five links are not available to ordinary people, nor can the Buddha be heard. So what? The little arhat sees the 1,000-year-old realm with his small heart, and sees the 2,000-year-old realm with great heart; The great arhat sees the 2,000 worlds with his small heart, and sees the 3,000 worlds with his big heart; Pizhi Foyer. It's a good eye! ”

"The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are not satisfied, but continue to practice. In his previous life, Xuanzang was originally an elder Jin Chanzi, a disciple of my Buddha, but because he moved his mortal desires, he was punished by the Buddha and became a mortal. Later, he was enlightened by the guidance of Guanyin Master, made a grand oath, and after a lot of hardships, he obtained the Western Mahayana Sanzang Buddhist Sutra, so the merit was complete, and he was awarded as the Buddha of Zhantan Merit. Heaven and earth, the universe, and all the Buddhas in the world have gone through the four stages of birth, residence, and extinction, reciprocating and repeating, and even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are no exception. You are a bodhisattva or an arhat, you don't know, I don't know, the heavens don't know, but you can only know what you cultivate in your heart! ”

"There was a man who used a torch woven of grass to walk at night, and when his torch was extinguished, he did not see the height of the road. He struck the straw torch to the ground and lit it again. The light of the renewed torch is greater than the previous light. If it is extinguished and rekindled, the sun will come out. When the sun rises, it does not need a torch and abandons it, but can walk all day long. ”

"The light of pervasiveness in the midst of pervasiveness (preparation) is like the light of a torch, and when he sees color sometimes it exceeds the opportunity of pervasiveness and when the light disappears, he cannot see color, like extinguishing the torch and not seeing the height of the road. Re-entry is like striking a torch. Again and again it is filled with stronger light, like the light of a torch that has been rekindled is greater than the light of the past, and the strong light that exists in the place of his limitation, like the sun rising. Abandon the small light and use the powerful light to see the color all day long, as if you abandon the torch can walk all day long. ”

I said, "I have come to understand a little, that a person's insight or the practice of a monk is like a person who travels at night and keeps beating the ashes on a torch so that a torch that is about to be extinguished will shine again. That is to say, knowledge and practice are accumulated through constant suffering, and perseverance is required in order to succeed. ”

The red-clothed lama nodded, and then said, "When the colors that are invisible to the naked eye to the naked eye are in the abdomen, in the heart, under the ground, on the other side of the gable, and in other chakras. ”

"Only the eyes of heaven can see in this, and there is no former distraction. However, the Heavenly Eye is a danger to ordinary people. Why? If that ordinary man decides to 'have light somewhere,' that is, to be able to penetrate through the earth, the sea, and the mountains, and he sees the terrible forms of the Yakshasas and so on and gives rise to fear, then it distracts his mind and confuses his dhyana. That's why when he sees color, he should not let go. ”

This is the method of the gradual generation of the heavenly eye, that is, taking the color seen by the naked eye as the cause of the above-mentioned one, giving rise to the intention and turning to the heart, and then extinguishing it, taking the same color as the cause, and initiating four or five speeds, etc., everything should be known as before. It is also the mind of the color realm that uses to find and serve all the minds that have been divided into the realm of desire, the mind that takes the heart of the ultimate goal as the mind of the fourth meditation, and the mind that arises at the same time as it, which is called the 'wisdom of death and birth of all sentient beings' and the wisdom of the heavenly eye. ”

Although I couldn't understand what the red lama said, I felt as if I had heard it faintly. Is this my own dialogue and understanding?
