Chapter 209: Celestials
As the saying goes, it is the most difficult to accept the grace of beauties, the more it is like this in the past month, the more Lin Qi is at a loss, he is not without thinking about marrying a daughter-in-law, the incense of the Lin family and the Wang family is still counting on him, but it has not stopped all these years, not to mention that he has to avenge the master, Chen Youliang is not a simple person, maybe he will never go back, and die in the hands of Chen Youliang, at that time, wouldn't he have cheated others, it was because Lin Qi never thought about getting married, and he didn't dare to think about it.
After a month like this, Lin Qi was also grateful in his heart, and said softly: "I'll talk about it later, can my mother be at home?" ”
After a few years of anticipation, waiting, and finally waiting for Lin Qi's gentle words, Yuelai's heart suddenly became very content, very happy, and felt that all her thoughts and hopes were so worthwhile, but then she became shy again, and said her daughter's thoughts in front of so many people, and she didn't feel anything at first, but now the more she thinks about it, the more embarrassed she becomes.
Yuelai lowered her head, a handsome face was red like a red cloth, and said softly: "Master went out to preach, and the rest of the sisters are not there, so I am left to guard the mountain gate, several, don't stand stupidly, come in first......"
A few people followed more and more into the small temple, the outside looked at the small temple is not big, but when they came in, they found that there was no cave, the small temple was built against the mountain, inside was a huge cave, there was no offering table, there was no statue of the gods, simple, simple, the moon came to see Lin Qi, the whole person became smart and cheerful, helped him put down the woman on his back, and smiled sweetly to Lin Qi: "You guys take a break, I'll go and send a message to my mother." The talker went out like a butterfly.
Seeing Yuelai go out, Yin Liheng was not without jealousy, and said to Lin Qi: "You kid doesn't know what kind of luck he has taken, he can be favored by such a woman, you have to treat others well, don't let down such a good girl." ”
Lin Qi sighed: "Now that I have the heart to think about this, I must cure my sister's illness, so that I can feel at ease, let's talk about the rest later, Brother Yin, you have followed me everywhere in the past few years, but it has also dragged you down." ”
Yin Liheng said with a smile: "What is not a drag, although you kid has a bad heart, but you are happy to mess around together, and the master does not restrain me, why stay in Wudang for a long time, the avenue, the avenue, the world is full of avenues, and there is no way to cultivate the Tao?" ”
Wuxiang said: "Brother Zhang Dao's words are very Zen, and there is a son in my Buddhism who says: The Buddha is not far away in Lingshan, and Lingshan is only in your heart." Everyone has a Lingshan Tower, so they can repair to the Lingshan Tower. What this verse says is: All the dojos are not in other places, enlightenment is not in other places, Buddhas are not in other places, peace and happiness are not in other places, and happiness and ** cannot be obtained from other places and other worlds; All the happiness, joy, security, peace, and serenity that you seek cannot be obtained from anyone else or anywhere else. Everything is on your own, and you can only get it from yourself. ”
The monk opened his mouth, and everyone was afraid, Lin Qi hurriedly interjected and asked Yin Liheng: "Brother Yin, where did you say that the huge city we saw in the sky at night is located?" Could it be that it is really the abode of the gods? ”
Yin Liheng muttered: "The immortals are different from mortals, and their dwellings are not mixed with the world, one is in the sea, the second is in the mountains, and the third is in the sky. During the Warring States Period, some monks declared: "There are three sacred mountains in the sea, called Penglai, Abbot, Yingzhou, and the immortals live there." 'These three sacred mountains, which are spread in the Bohai Sea, are not far from people, and those who have tasted it, all immortals and immortal medicines are in the air. Later, there was the saying of ten continents and three islands, saying that there are ten continents such as Yingzhou and Xuanzhou in the sea and three islands such as Kunlun, Abbot and Pengqiu, all of which are the habitats of the gods. ”
"The three islands of the ten continents themselves are composed of a group of magical and wonderful immortal mountains, and the thirty-six days are said to be manifested by Brahmanic energy, but the palace where the immortals live can still only be built on the mountain. The Taoist book says that the highest place of the thirty-six heavens has 'Xuandu Yujing Mountain, crowning the eight directions of the heavens, and the extreme of the world is in the center. The mountain has the Seven Treasures City, the city has the Seven Treasures Palace, and the palace has the Seven Treasures Xuantai'. ”
"Whether it's a fairyland or not, I don't dare to say, I also have doubts in my heart, if it is really where the immortals are, this woman must also be a first-class figure of the immortals, how can she be injured by mortal things and become like this? But if not, who knows what kind of place it should be when it is called a city in the sky? ”
Lin Qi said: "I'm the same as you think, I always feel that the huge city we see is not the abode of the gods, but it is not in the world, which is really incomprehensible." ”
When Lin Qi said this, the monk took over and said, "The poor monk has a conjecture, and he doesn't know if it's right or not. ”
Although the monk's mouth is broken, the Dharma is profound, Lin Qi and Yin Liheng Zhou Dian both went to see him, and the monk frowned and said: "The poor monk also saw the vision in the sky, these people recalled the scriptures they had read, and when they thought about it, there was only one place that matched, and that was the realm of heaven and man." ”
There is a difference in Buddhism, although Lin Qi and Yin Liheng understand a little, and there are monks there who know more, they can't help but ask: "Monk, don't talk nonsense, you can talk about the things of the heavenly and human world." ”
Wuxiang Dao: "You also know the six realms of reincarnation, including hell, hungry ghosts, livestock, humans, asuras, celestial beings, the six realms of reincarnation belong to the six mortal realms, also known as the heavenly beings, the heavenly beings live in the heavenly realm, one of the six realms of reincarnation, and all sentient beings leave the five realms and are reborn in the heavenly pleasure because of the cultivation of the ten virtues. Among them, if they have not practiced meditation and cannot leave the earth, they will dwell in heaven for the earth. For four days above the night sky, because of the power of meditation, it is not attached to the ground, but lives in the air. However, because his concentration has not yet arrived, that is, he has not been able to enter the fundamental meditation, so he has not yet been able to get out of the realm of desire. That is, if you sit upright and take your body, reconcile your breath, be clear, your body is like a cloud shadow, you are empty and pure, and you still see the appearance of body and mind, it is called the definition of desire, and it is the determination of the heavens of desire. If you can practice the root meditation and get rid of the coarseness of the realm of desire, you will be born in the realm of colors. ”
Celestial beings also have three desires: eating, sleeping, and love. Celestial beings have a long life span and great power, and all kinds of gorgeous clothes and delicacies gush out everywhere at a moment's notice, but the disadvantage is that they often slow down the Dharma because their lives are too good. The six realms of reincarnation of sentient beings will not exist in one place forever, although the life span of heaven and man is very long, but there is an end, and then they will enter the cycle of reincarnation, descending into human beings, asuras, animals, hungry ghosts, and even hell.
Before death, there will be five symptoms of heaven and man, called the "five decays of heaven and man": dirty clothes, wilted flowers on the head, smelly body, and sweat under the armpits, so the celestial beings are not immortals, the celestial beings are not omniscient, and the celestial beings are not immortal. “
Lin Qi muttered: "The monk is saying that the heavenly beings are still in the six realms of reincarnation, and they are not immortals, although they are stronger than us, they are not much stronger, they still have birth, old age, sickness and death, and they are still reincarnated after death and enter the place of reincarnation?" ”
Wuxiang said: "That's right, after the death of the great good, they will become the so-called celestials." In terms of good fortune, the heavenly realm is the place of the highest blessing among the six realms. When the celestial beings are born, they are born in flowers, and there is no infancy, and they come out in the form of virgins and virgins. Its lifespan is extremely long. In the heavenly realm, there is no moon or moon, and the celestial people themselves shine light, and the flowers bloom and the flowers are combined into one day and night. In the heavenly desires, food, clothing, and all the necessities are obtained without pretense. There is not much else to do in their lives but pleasure. ”
"Celestial beings are immortal and do not get sick, but celestial beings die. The most painful time for celestial beings is when they are dying, when the beings of the heavenly realm, who have always been light, fragrant, and extremely clean, begin to sweat and stink, the light recedes first, their clothes become dirty, and they become restless. At this time, their friends were scattered, leaving them alone to die, but the life span of beings in the heavenly realm was very long, and even the time they lived was thousands of human years, which made them suffer in vain. And because the beings in the heavenly realm have supernatural powers and can predict where they will go in the next life, they are even more worried. Why are they so anxious when they know where they are going? Because the heavenly realm is so blessed that it often uses up all the good karma of the sentient beings in the rebirth, leaving only the unreported negative karma, so the next rebirth is mostly the three evil realms. ”
Those who have good intentions will be reincarnated into this realm when the heavens and humans are temporary, and the mothers of the human world like the fragrance of flowers when they are pregnant with the reincarnation of the heavens. Loves flowers and trees. The body does not feel any discomfort. The mother often dreamed of all kinds of treasures. When these celestial beings are reincarnated as humans, they are all intelligent people, different from ordinary people, and love to wear white clothes. The skin is white and tender, and there is no careful eye. Love to have fun. He likes to watch theaters and wears clothes with delicate textures. Be generous and don't get drunk when you drink. I like women very much. I like to eat and drink. I like landscapes, but most of them are unlucky, because the good fortune has been enjoyed......
The monk was still chattering, but Lin Qi was stunned when he heard it, and carefully recalled the appearance of the sky city he saw at the beginning, the people there were indeed wearing soft moon-white clothes, everyone was ruddy, there was no sorrow and hardship, and the whole city was extremely beautiful, really like a fairyland.
Lin Qi's heart suddenly moved, interrupted Wuxiang, and asked, "Since it is the realm of heaven and man, why is there a city?" But I also saw the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city walls, is there still a war in the heavenly and human realms? ”
"Naturally, it is a war, the opponent of the celestial man is the asura, the men in the asura world are very ugly, but the women are very beautiful, the women of the assura don't look down on the asura men, so they go to grab the beautiful men in the sky, the asura women are very splashy, those asura men dare not delusion the idea of the asura women to fight the heavenly maiden. For these reasons, the Asuras often declare war on the heavenly realm. ”
"In addition, in the heavenly realm, there are also cases where the strong bully the weak, and the less powerful beings will be bullied or discriminated against, which is also one of their sufferings."
When Wuxiang said this, an old sigh came from outside the house, and the lifeless old mother walked in with Yuelai, and said: "You little monk is smart and clever, but you have also guessed a ** not far from ten!" (To be continued.) )
