Liu Gaoxiao and Tie Qiongqiong listened carefully to Basang Zhuoma's introduction, and were very impressed by the contribution of Gesang Dunzhu to his hometown in the history of the Holy Spirit Bath. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Who is Tsering Bian Zhen and what does he do exactly?"

Tie Qiongqiong could hear from Basang Zhuoma's tone just now that the relationship between the two of them was deep, they were a pair of best friends who were like siblings, and the good impression and curiosity in her heart for Tsering Bian Zhen suddenly germinated.

"She is the sister of Brother Gesang Dunzhu, the only one and only one sister. ”

Yu Du Cheng Ti Basang Zhuoma replied. Instead, he looked at Basang Zhuoma with an inquiring gaze and said, "I have a question, I don't know if it's convenient to ask?"

"Yes, I don't know if I can answer it. Basang Zhuoma fluttered her tight and slender eyelashes, her eyes were particularly crystal clear, and she looked at Yu Ducheng deeply. "As long as I know, I'll tell you. ”

Yu Ducheng's expression was solemn for a while, and he asked, "Tsering Bianzhen's child is almost two years old, why didn't she and her husband come back this time to participate in the Holy Spirit Bath of Gesang's eldest brother's child together?"

"Your question is really going to be difficult for me. But, as I said earlier, as long as I know, I will tell you......"

Basang Zhuoma took the reins, looked at the blue sky above him, hesitated for a while, as if he had finally mustered up his courage, and said, "Unfortunately, my sister Tsering's husband, Meilang Dorjee, is not the son of the steppe, and he is not a person born in my Rebu village. Therefore, neither the couple nor their children were allowed to come back to participate in the Holy Spirit Bath ceremony. ”

"What?" Yu Ducheng was stunned, and his body trembled a little. "Tsering Bian Zhen's husband is not Tibetan?"

"He's Han Chinese. Later, he took a Tibetan name and became a Tibetan. ”

Basang Dolma's eyes suddenly filled with a heavy layer of melancholy, and he continued, "He is an orphan. Eight years ago, a tornado swept me into the cattle and sheepfold of Uncle Tashi Tsering on the grassland, but fortunately, Uncle Tashi Tsering saved him and treated him as his own son, allowing him to survive on the grassland. According to the rules set by our ancestors in our village, only if the father is from the village, his children are eligible to enjoy the Holy Spirit bath, so ...... So Sister Tsering's son is not qualified to ......"

Then, Basang Zhuoma told the story of how Meilang Dorjee came to the prairie, how Tsering Bian Zhen liked him, and how he worked hard through his own efforts and became the vice president of Gao Yuan Qingyun with the help of Gesang Dunzhu.

The story of Meilang Dorjee who fell from the sky made Liu Gaoxiao and Tie Qiongqiong feel a lot of emotion and heartbeat.

Tie Qiongqiong was moved by his diligence and hard work, and praised him even more, saying that he "will not die in great trouble, and there will be blessings in the future", and also said that "God has eyes, and God rewards diligence", and asked Liu Gaoxiao to take Meilang Dorjee as an example and learn from his enterprising spirit, fighting spirit and fighting spirit.

After listening to the whole story, Yu Ducheng was even more surprised and puzzled, and one mystery after another came to his mind.

He decided that after Kelsang Tondrup was busy with the Holy Spirit Bath, he must find a suitable time to unreservedly reveal his questions about Meilang Dorjee.

The slight change in the expression on Yu Ducheng's face did not attract the attention of Basang Zhuoma.

She then went on and on to tell them the miraculous story about the Holy Spirit bath.

"The Holy Spirit Bath Ceremony is solemn and sacred! We call the master of the Holy Spirit Bath an auspicious blessed person, and tomorrow, Tashi Tsering and his wife and Kelsang Tondrup will be the auspicious blessed people of our village. ”

As soon as Basang Zhuoma opened his mouth, he said in a tone of great pride: "On the day of the Holy Spirit Bathing Ceremony, every household in our village is even happier than the Tibetan New Year. For three consecutive days in our village, all men, women and children are enjoying the abundant fruits and delicacies provided by the auspicious people on the grassland, we drink butter tea, drink barley wine, sing and dance, and offer the highest respect and the most sincere blessings to the auspicious people. ”

Basang Zhuoma continued to introduce with a solemn expression——

There is a natural hot spring in Maro Temple, called Nulida Hot Spring, which is shrouded in mist and aura.

This hot spring is very magical, all year round, 24 hours a day, its temperature is always maintained at a constant temperature of 28 degrees, no matter the change of seasons, cold and heat, there is no change in the slightest.

Ancestors have said that Nulida Hot Spring is the resting, resting and bathing place of the gods of Rebu Village, because of the presence of the gods and the illumination of the Buddha's light, so Nulida Hot Spring has become extremely sacred in the hearts of local Tibetans.

Every year on the day of the New Year, January 1 of the Tibetan calendar, there is a long queue at the entrance of Maro Temple.

On this morning, every household in Rebu Village was given 19 barrels of Nulida hot spring water.

They brought the water home, and then let the children of the family strip themselves and stand one by one in the cold air, facing the direction of the Maro Temple, with open arms, looking up at the sky, and chanting words aloud.

Abba and Grandma scooped up Nulida's hot spring water from a bucket with a large wooden spoon and poured it down from head to toe three times in a row, so that they could be blessed and protected by the gods and Buddhas.

At 9:33 a.m. the next day, the Holy Spirit Bath ceremony in Solang Wangdui officially began.

A total of 339 members of the Tashi Tsering family and representatives of men, women and children from Rebu Village lined up in two rows in front of the steps outside the gate of Maro Monastery, quietly waiting for the call of the drums in the temple.

Yu Ducheng, Liu Gaoxiao, and Tie Qiongqiong, as the honored guests of Gesang Dunzhu, had already entered the temple in advance with Tashi Tsering and Gesang Dunzhu and his wife, and were making preparations for participating in the Holy Spirit bath in accordance with the temple's regulations.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The sound of drums in the temple was heard, and under the guidance of the two lamas, two rows of people went up the stairs and entered the temple, standing in the corridors on the left and right sides of the temple.

Directly in front of them, in the patio, is the mysterious Nurida Hot Springs.

At this time, beams of golden sunlight pass through the sky above the patio, shining on the blue water in the hot spring.

The fog around the patio is swirling, and the aura is tumbling, hazy, and ethereal, as if it is a legendary fairyland.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The drums beat again.

The Living Buddha Tenzin blindfolded Solang Wangdui with a strip of red cloth that had been opened, supported his smooth body with both hands, and put him in the hot springs, soaked him for three minutes, and then picked him up.

The Living Buddha Tenzin opened the treasure bottle and poured out the first drop of the secret holy spirit oil of Maro Monastery.

At this time, the eighteen lamas wearing the most vivid red and standing on both sides of the hot spring pool were holding *** and swaying their bodies slightly, reciting the six-character mantra devoutly. Pray to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to grant Solang Wangdui health, wealth, merit and wisdom beyond the worldly Dharma, and eternal peace and happiness.

The chanting and Zen sound is like the waves of the sea, from far to near, from low to high, rolling in, like the mountains stretching endlessly, like the sound of the sky ethereal and secluded.

Amid the chanting of the lamas, the holy spirit oil in the vase of treasures flowed into the palm of the right hand of the Living Buddha Tenzin.

Then, Tenzin turned over his palm and gently rubbed the Holy Spirit Oil in his palm nine times in a row on Solang Wangdui's body in the order from top to bottom and bottom to top.

When the last action of the ninth rubbing was over, the lamas' chanting also stopped abruptly.

At this time, Lama Daden walked out of the procession and walked to the other side of the Living Buddha Tenzin, and the two of them grabbed the child's arm and immersed his body in the hot spring water.

When the water is over your head, lift him to the surface.

When the soles of his feet leave the water, they dimmer him in the water again.

And so ninety-nine times.

Finally, the Living Buddha Tenzin wrapped Solang Wangdui's body in a warm wool blanket and placed it in front of the statue of Avalokiteshvara.

At this time, the lamas chanted loudly.

Five minutes later, the Living Buddha Tenzin wrapped a bead around Solang Wangdui's right wrist.

"What's that, why do you want to wear it?" Tie Qiongqiong asked Basang Zhuoma next to him softly.

Pasang Dolma said, "That's a Buddha bead, and I wear it around my neck." This string of Buddhist beads is made of small leaves of red sandalwood, and when worn on the body of Solang Wangdui, it can produce merit and keep peace. ”

Tie Qiongqiong asked again: "So, what is Rosewood, is it a gemstone?"

"You're still studying, it's not weird," Basang Zhuoma sneered, seeing that Tie Qiongqiong was still confused, and then patiently explained: "Do you know mahogany? It grows slowly, taking hundreds of years to reach maturity. It is generally believed that the small leaf red sandalwood collection of the essence of heaven, earth, sun and moon, is the true spirit of nature, is the balance of yin and yang holy relics. At present, rosewood is the most popular and precious material for Buddha beads. ”

"Oh, I see. It's sacred!"

Tie Qiongqiong nodded seriously. When I looked up, I saw Tenzin Living Buddha picking up Solang Wangdui and sending it to his mother, Bian Ma Danzhen.

Tashi Tsering and his wife and Kelsang Tondrup knelt down and kowtowed six times to Lama Daden and the Living Buddha Tenzin.

At this point, the bath of the Holy Spirit ends. (To be continued.) )
