Nanqizhou "dots" - Buddha statues are lifeless, Taoism and nature (1
A golden mist appeared in the oval-shaped ethereal area, and the figures of the Afternoon Buddha and the Boundless Dao Leader were hidden in it, and the world in it also became a place where the stars gathered, and the psychological world of the two of them emerged vividly in it, one was illuminated by the light of the Buddha, and the other was covered by the golden threads that carried the truth and connection, and the faintly appeared filigree threads.
After a period of commotion, the light of the Buddha and the golden thread disappeared at the same time. The figures of the two also melted into the stars, and after three or four breaths, a Buddha statue appeared in the stars, and a miniature earth that had shrunk countless times appeared at the foot of the Buddha statue, and there was a vivid human world on the ground. Similarly, on the other side of the Buddha line, there is a chaotic world, in which there is a miasma of smoke and beacon fire.
In both worlds, there is a protagonist, both eighteen or nineteen-year-old youths, who step into their respective worlds.
The world of Buddha statues is calm and peaceful, and the villages and counties and cities inside are a harmonious scene, and the places where Buddhist youth pass, the catkins rise due to the wind, as if a burst of snow falls. The Taoist world is filled with the sound of human beatings and duels, and the Jin Ge Iron Horse with billowing gunpowder smoke fills the entire city and countryside, and the Taoist youth rushes around in it, using their own meager strength to save the suffering people they encounter.
This is undoubtedly the way of life of two factions, one in the prosperous or peaceful world to go out of the mountain and purify sentient beings, and the other in the troubled and calamitous times to go out of the mountain and save sentient beings.
In the world of Buddha statues, rich families ask for incense and worship Buddha, they ask for greater wealth, and a kind of peace of mind, and Buddha statues without exception will be "sesame oil money" and greater "wishes" into the stomach, monks sit behind the people who pray for "happiness", for them to recite the Bodhisattva tune, to help them inform the Buddha of their wishes, of course, the Buddha will not help them is not certain, but the people who pray, the heart has been satisfied, although they still suffer from their so-called "dissatisfaction", but as if they have fulfilled their wishes.
In the world of Taoism, people live in the dire war, darkness and ugliness are parallel in society, there is such a group of people, they wear straw sandals, carry bamboo baskets, eat dregs, but give the white film in their hands to the suffering people they meet for free, they can not save all the suffering people, but bring the greatest warmth to the people they meet, they do not give people faith, but give the most direct help to the humble and suffering people. However, after helping, they did not accept any small gifts, even an egg or a pancake, they would always tell the people who thanked them, "Everything will be fine, don't remember me, go and try to live." People will look at their backs and deeply engrave the "Taoist" in their hearts.
At a certain moment, the world of Buddha statues and the world of Taoism are in harmony with yin and yang, but the young man does not move as the core, and the two come to each other's world at the same time, and a confrontation between Buddha and Tao begins.
Under the Buddha statue, the Taoist youth walked into this peaceful world, everywhere is a thriving atmosphere, he walked into the homes of ordinary people, although every household is not a big fish and meat, but the grain tank is always full, occasionally a bowl of red meat can appear on the table, the Taoist youth nodded, no longer into the village, and then entered the county and city, the people in the county and city are alive on the surface, but the pressure is quite great, they are always thinking about some interests and other things, or because of interpersonal relationships and tired, or because they can't get something and nest fire, But they all look normal on the surface, and no one can guess that there is an impetuous male lion hidden behind them, and he will explode at any time because of a little spark.
Someone came to the young man of the Dao system and said, "Dao Chief, you can solve my doubts." Not long after, three or two more people came up to him and asked, "Daoist, do you know how to tell fortunes?" Can you show me the way forward? ”
The Taoist young man shook his head, and he said to these people: "Nature is good, there is a reason between heaven and earth, and the fate of people is also predestined, whether it is miracles, luck or suffering, they are all related to all things, can you be more obsessed with a little unpleasant thing?" It's better to relax and go with the flow, knowing that you are happy enough compared to many people. ”
"But Dao Chief, I'm unwilling." The man continued: "I have worked all day long, and I have not been rewarded all year round, and I have not been recognized for all my hard work, should I have been born to be a mediocre person? Alas, I am unwilling, I deserve more. ”
The Taoist youth then said to him: "What you should get, sooner or later, although the connections in the world are many and complex, but as long as they are stereotyped, it is difficult to change, in the same way, what you should not get, you don't have to go to luxury, everything is natural, people, you must learn to be content, contentment can always be happy, you are already very happy, aren't you?" The man shook his head and turned away, and said stupidly: "Hey, it's all about it, stinky Taoist priest, it's useless." ”
The Buddhist youth came to this chaotic world, he avoided the calamity all the way, and he felt a deep sense of suffering in the world, and then he fell into a hesitation, whether to help them or not? It is true that the Buddha wants to purify all sentient beings, but the current world is like purgatory, people live in dire straits, and suffer great suffering all day long, isn't death a good relief? If you help, not only will it not have much effect on the whole world, but it will also make the survivors continue to suffer, rather than this, it is better to let the suffering people enter the cycle of reincarnation as soon as possible, where there is cause and effect, they have suffered in this life, and they may have to enjoy joy in the next life.
Therefore, for a long time, the Buddhist youth did not meet a person who came to ask for help, and at one point, he passed by a tree with a crooked neck, where a man was hanging himself and was about to kick away the stepping stone, and the eyes of the two met. The Buddhist youth saw a deep sense of helplessness and longing in the eyes of this person, and at this time, even a word of greeting would bring great warmth and courage to the dying person.
However, when the words were about to reach his lips, the Buddhist young man saw the smoke behind the tree with his crooked neck, he frowned, and thought in his heart, I persuaded him to live, whether it was a harm to him, looking at this muddy world, he continued or, wouldn't he still suffer, isn't it a sin for me? My Buddha is compassionate, life is just a meaning of reincarnation, let him be liberated as soon as possible.
Then, in front of the person who committed suicide and longed for this warm eye, the Buddhist young man walked away calmly, and as he left, he heard the sound of falling stones in his ears, and behind him, he saw the undead.
