165 Life and death are downlooked, and if you don't accept it, you will do it
The old monk's poem is elegant and full of Zen.
But in Li Ye's view, this is a serious provocation.
"There is no worry about life and death, let alone worry, isn't it, life and death are downplayed, what do you do if you don't accept it, old monk, you are very dragged. ”
When the old monk heard this, the originally reserved and smug smile on his face suddenly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.
The old monk is still very satisfied with his own Zen poems, which tell about his noble feelings of not fearing hardship, taking the world as his home, and traveling the world only for the sake of purifying all sentient beings, and about the supreme Zen realm in which he does not chase fame and fortune, and even looks down on life and death.
But Li Ye's sentence is downplayed, life and death are downplayed, and if he is not satisfied, he will do it, and the sentence full of the breath of the middle two suddenly broke the noble poetry of the old monk.
What made the old monk even more entangled was that if Li Ye was talking nonsense, then he wouldn't care so much.
But Li Ye's sentence is almost the same as his last poem.
It's just that one is obscure and elegant, and the other is brainless.
Listening to the old monk's poems, the seven-year-old doll on the side looked at the old monk with admiration and admiration.
Hearing Li Ye's words, the doll didn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
"Amitabha!"
The old monk was speechless, and he was completely speechless to Li Ye, a vulgar person, so he had to call the Buddha name.
"Old monk, let's go, since you have said so, then let's go to the outside of the city to compete and see if you really have to look down on life and death. ”
Li Ye's purpose is that if he can beat it, then try his best to use his hands and mouth, and use his muscles to convince people.
If you can't beat it, then use your mouth again.
Spelling out the mouth, Li Ye is not confident to compare with this old monk who eats exclusively by mouth.
Let's fight for muscles.
The old monk shook his head, his principles were the opposite of Li Ye, he could try not to do anything if he could, put patience first everywhere, and try to persuade the world with Buddhism.
The old monk didn't agree to go outside the city to fight, and Li Ye didn't have a good way, it was densely populated here, and he couldn't do anything too much, so he couldn't just do it here.
"Old monk, there are so many orphans here, why do you want to choose my disciples, all beings are equal? These children are waiting for you to pull them out of the sea of suffering. ”
The old monk didn't want to speak, and he didn't talk more than half a sentence.
When my disciple will become your disciple, there must be a first come, first come.
As for the other orphans, the reason why the old monk came here was to learn that there were countless casualties in the war here, and he came to help the suffering people here.
The old monk originally planned to find the third prince and explain to him the situation of these orphans.
The old monk himself also planned to use his Dharma to solve people's problems and persuade some wealthy people to help these suffering people.
The old monk's mind is firm, and it is not something that Li Ye can shake with a few words.
Seeing this, Li Ye replaced a scripture book from the martial arts system, "Lenga Sutra".
The mouth spoke.
In Li Ye's previous life, there were six ancestors in Zen Buddhism.
The Venerable Dharma of the First Ancestor used the "Ranga Sutra" to initiate the second ancestor Master Huike.
In this world, there is a great Leiyin temple in Garuda, which is Mahayana Buddhism, but there is no Hinayana Buddhism.
The old monk was well versed in Buddhism, Li Ye read a few words, and the old monk was stunned, he didn't look at Li Ye at first, but now he stared straight at the Buddhist scriptures in Li Ye's hand.
Even the seven-year-old doll on the side, after all, is a person born with a Buddha heart, and he also showed a careful listening to this Buddhist scripture.
Li Ye smiled and stopped reading.
For the old monk, this Ranga Sutra is like a drunkard seeing fine wine and a pervert seeing a young woman, that is, dry wood and fire, and he can't wait for a moment.
The old monk was born in the Great Leiyin Temple, and crossed from the east of the Garuda country, one to promote Buddhism, and the other to find people who are destined for Buddhism.
And now, different from Mahayana Buddhism, the Ranga Sutra, a Hinayana Buddhist scripture, has opened up a new world for the old monks.
Mahayana Buddhism is to first cross sentient beings, and in the process of crossing sentient beings, to achieve oneself.
Theravada Buddhism is to cross oneself first, and after oneself has attained the other shore, then cross the world.
There is no difference between the two, only the order.
However, in terms of feasibility, Theravada Buddhism is more suitable for ordinary people.
If someone does not have the ability himself, he can cross sentient beings as soon as he comes up.
Unless it is Shakyamuni, who is born with one finger to the heavens, one to the earth, heaven and earth, and the only one.
Such a powerful reincarnation can only be achieved by practicing Mahayana Buddhism.
In other words, the Great Leiyin Temple, Mahayana Buddhism and martial arts, all require talented people to cultivate to a high level.
The old monk is just an ordinary monk, with average martial arts talent, and in the Great Leiyin Temple, he belongs to the kind of ordinary monk who has no sense of existence and no more than him.
Even Mahayana Buddhism, old monks sometimes comprehend it, but they don't feel empathy.
The Ranga Sutra is different.
After listening to a few words, the old monk felt a little enlightened.
It is also because of this difference between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism, so Hinayana Buddhism has the Sutra of Yijin Washing the Marrow, which pays attention to gradual progress, does not emphasize talent, but only emphasizes understanding, that is, the Buddha's heart.
Mahayana Buddhism, on the other hand, has stagnated in the study of martial arts such as the Taishang Forgetting Secret of Love, and can only secretly and anxiously send monks out of the temple to look for people who are born with Buddha bodies.
"Old monk, go outside the city, you win, the Ranga Sutra is presented with both hands, and if you lose, return my disciple to me, how about it?"
The old monk was a little hesitant, but the Lenga Sutra did make him tempted, if it was before, Li Ye said that fame, fortune and martial arts, he regarded it as dung and laughed at it.
"You said so much, why don't you ask my opinion?"
The seven-year-old little doll spoke, an ordinary seven-year-old child, it is estimated that he does not dare to speak, he is an orphan, it is good to have someone take him in, he must be cautious, for fear of making a mistake.
There was a hint of arrogance on the little doll's face, he knew that he had no talent for martial arts, but when the old monk wanted to take him away, he himself was willing, because he himself had a good impression of the old monk.
He already recognized the old monk a little, but Li Ye came out halfway to cut off his beard.
If it weren't for Li Ye's success in cultivating the Yijin Sutra, although he himself did not believe in Buddhism, he had a Buddha-like atmosphere on his body, which made this little doll who was born with a Buddha heart also have a little good impression of Li Ye, otherwise, this little doll would not take the initiative to talk to Li Ye.
"Apprentice, in the future, we will have time to communicate. ”
Li Ye touched the doll's head and said with a smile.
"I don't want to!"
The doll is very precocious, and he is most disgusted by others touching his head.
"Why?"
"I want to study the Dharma. ”
"After worshipping me as a teacher, I can also teach you the Dharma, I have a lot of scriptures like the Ranga Sutra, and more importantly, in addition to the Dharma, I can also teach you Buddhist martial arts. ”
Li Ye put away his hippie smile and ran the Yijin Sutra with all his might, the whole person's breath changed, and the Buddha's will continued to pour out, which suddenly made the old monk and the little doll stunned. (To be continued.) )
