Chapter 309, Miao Shan
This is the first time that "Huang Ting Neijing Jing" has taken the initiative to tell a person about the past, but this time, the glimmer of life is no longer Miaoshan, but her two sisters and father.
A glimmer of life!
"Don't look at me like that!" Ning Caichen's compassionate gaze made her extremely manic.
Her anger alarmed Xiaoqing on the side: "Impossible, how could it be that Guanyin Bodhisattva hurt my sister, the Bodhisattva has always sympathized with my sister." This is something that Xiaoqing can't accept, and it's something she can't imagine. How could Guanyin, who was relieving the suffering, do such a thing? And it was still a skin? No matter how you think about it, it is impossible.
"Sympathy, of course she sympathizes!" Miao-Shan laughed, but tears flowed from her eyes. Ning Caichen knew the different life and felt that it was better to say it. Ning Caichen said: "She is Guanyin, but she is not. ”
"What?" Xiaoqing didn't understand.
Ning Caichen said: "The Guanyin that your sister saw is the Guanyin around Rulai, and it is the Guanyin who taught Cihang to be transformed as a man. ”
Myo-seon listened attentively, as if recalling something.
"She is Guanyin beside Amitabha. Legend has it that in ancient times, King Zhuang had three beautiful princesses. The eldest princess is called Miao-Kim, the second princess is called Miao-Yin, and the third princess is called Miao-Shan. Miao Shan has been a monk since she was a child, but her father did not allow her to go, so she ran away. There were 500 monks and nuns in the temple where Miao Shan was located, and King Miao Zhuang was so angry that he burned the temple with a torch, and all 500 monks and nuns were burned to death inside. Miao - Shan, who practiced in the temple, was also burned, fortunately was rescued by a white tiger, and came to Xiangshan to continue to believe in Buddhism after a lot of hardships, and finally became the host of the Xiangshan Temple, sat down and ascended to heaven, and finally achieved positive results. ”
"The Buddhist scriptures say that good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. King Miao Zhuang did evil, and he had 500 big abscesses on his body, and it was useless to use any medicine. The doctor said that you have to make medicine with one eye and one hand of flesh and bones to heal it. The eldest princess was unwilling, and the second princess was reluctant. The three princesses who practiced Miao-Shan were good and filial piety, and although King Miao-Zhuang had done those evil things, as soon as she heard that she had to give birth to one eye and one hand of her own flesh and blood to cure her father's illness, she gouged out one eye and cut off one hand to make medicine for her father. After taking the medicine, the abscess all over the body disappeared and the body recovered. ”
"King Miaozhuang heard that the Bodhisattva of Xiangshan offered his hands and eyes, so he came to worship in incense. How could a daughter be worshiped by her father, and when she saw her father worshipping for a long time, Miao Shan turned on one side and became the sideways statue of a thousand hands and a thousand eyes offered in the temple now. The great filial piety of Miao-Shan touched Shakyamuni, and Shakyamuni summoned Princess Miao-Shan: "You, the great filial son, give up one eye and one hand, and I will return you a thousand eyes and a thousand hands." In this way, Princess Miao-Shan became the Bodhisattva of Guanyin with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes, and became the left assistant of Amitabha Buddha, and together with Amitabha Buddha and Dashi Zhi Bodhisattva (Amitabha Buddha's right attendant), she was called the "Three Sages of the West". ”
"Haha! The Three Sages of the West, what are the Three Sages of the West? It's just a pile of dry bones. She suddenly reacted like she was crazy.
This story is the first time that someone has told it at this moment, and it can be regarded as a secret of Buddhism. Xiaoqing still couldn't understand why her sister was so victimized by such a statue of Guanyin. "Isn't Guanyin good? Then why did she hurt her sister?"
"Yes, the Thousand-Armed Guanyin is the Goddess of Mercy of the past, and in the past immeasurable eons, when listening to the Thousand Lights King Jingzhu Ru speaking on the Dharani Sutra of the Great Perfection and Great Compassion, for the benefit of all sentient beings, he swore that if I came to benefit all sentient beings, I would be able to have a thousand hands and a thousand eyes at once, and I would have fulfilled my vows, and I would have fulfilled all the dry eyes with a thousand hands and eyes at the right time, and I would have manifested the Wishful Jewel, the Nisei Mani Jewel, the Grape Hands, the Nectar Hands, the White Buddha's Hands, the Willow Branches, and so on. Whether sentient beings are thirsty for wealth or want to ward off disasters and diseases, the Thousand-Armed Guanyin can show great compassion, relieve all kinds of suffering, and give all kinds of happiness. From the perspective of Buddhism, as long as you sincerely believe in the thousand-armed Kannon, you will have four major benefits: "relieving calamities," "gaining," "respecting," and "subduing." ”...,
Miao-Shan seems to be recalling the perfect self with Ning Caichen's narration.
These are the good old days. "But the legends that have been handed down are often extremely simple. It's either good or bad. But everything can be as good as it can be. If she doesn't abdicate, where will there be the current Guanyin, and how can there be so many honorific positions in Buddhism that can be issued at will. ”
The supreme position is often the congenital position, whether the position of Guanyin is the innate position, "Huangting Neijing Jingjing" did not say, and Ning Caichen did not know.
"You mean she's fallen?" Xiaoqing asked.
Ning Caichen thought for a moment and said, "It can also be regarded as a fall! If her father and sister cramped and picked her bones just to get through her own sins, then she has fallen." ”
"What? how is it possible?" Xiaoqing said in surprise.
"How is it impossible? Your daughter and sister have supreme mana, but you are going to fall into the Infernal Hell, what will you do?" Ning Caichen asked.
"But she's Guanyin Bodhisattva!" Xiaoqing said.
"What about Guanyin? Not even a Buddha is omnipotent, let alone a Bodhisattva. ”
"I'll talk about it next!" Myo-seon picked up and continued. "If the human heart is not enough for the Buddha to swallow the elephant, and the human heart is not enough, the same can swallow the Bodhisattva. Back then, I saved my father, but I never expected that they would give me a curse and use the resentment of 500 monks and nuns as medicine to imprison my mana. I can only watch them peel off my skin and get through the boundless karma. He has cooked my flesh and blood, and he thinks it is the law. From now on, Miao-gold is a thousand hands, and Miao-silver is a thousand eyes. My father turned into a golden cicada and became a disciple of Rulai, offering his flesh and blood again and again. Haha! My Buddha has clouds, good is rewarded, evil is rewarded. He deserves it!"
"He deserves it! Eat my flesh, and he will sacrifice his own flesh and blood all the days of his life!" she laughed triumphantly, so that she went mad again.
Ning Caichen persuaded her: "Since they have also received karmic retribution, what else do you not want to let go? Forget it!"
"Forget it, since you know so much, you don't know that they actually have attained the true fruit of Buddhism. I am not convinced, I am not reconciled, I want revenge! I want to turn into a dark revenge Guanyin to take revenge. The power of the Buddhist oath is extremely strong, she just said that she would turn into a dark revenge Guanyin to take revenge, and immediately her demonic energy soared, and then turned into a body with a thousand hands and a thousand eyes.
It's just that this incarnation is the opposite of the thousand-armed Guanyin of the Buddha position. "Calamity", "negativity", "hatred", and "demon" are the demon positions.
A monstrous demonic aura, even the sky is covered.
And hiding in the shadows, he couldn't regain the lawlessness of the day, and he also felt this demonic energy, and couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay! Another Demon Gate Sage was born." Buddhism is immortal, and the devil is eternal! Haha! Yes, that's it. Let's make trouble, let's make trouble! When this seat refines the world-destroying grinding plate, it will be the time when my Buddha path is prosperous. When the time comes, those who bear me will die! Those who oppress me will definitely make them look good!"
"How about it?" would you like to be my subordinate, and follow me to break through the Western Heavens and kill the old dog and those two!" asked Miao-Shan.
Ning Caichen said: "You also know that good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil. Now that you know it, this is your own evil retribution, and you can't blame others. ”
"What?' my retribution?" Miao-Shan couldn't believe what she had heard. "What evil am I? I vowed to benefit all sentient beings, but there are many sentient beings, and there are many kinds of sufferings and afflictions, and the needs and desires of all sentient beings are different, and I feel quite incompetent. But not only did I not give up, but I also took a vow to ask for a thousand hands and eyes, and became 42 bodhisattvas of great compassion, with the intention of benefiting and benefiting all sentient beings. But a thousand hands and a thousand eyes, even I have a very heavy burden, my teacher Immeasurable Buddha saw this, and advised me not to be impatient, otherwise I would not be able to reach it quickly. And helped me to bring forty-two individuals together, leaving only forty-two arms, and let each palm grow an eye, representing an avatar. ”...,
"Are you going to tell me what evil I have?"
"Five hundred monks and nuns. ”
"Five hundred monks-nuns......" she mused.
"Their death is evil. This evil was originally suffered by King Miao Zhuang, but you healed it. But this evil did not disappear, and in the end it still fell on yourself, and it is right to say that you deserve it!" Ning Caichen also said, "If the luck of Buddhism was long at that time, it was nothing, and this luck could naturally protect you so that you would not fall into the blood prison, but what was the situation of Buddhism at that time, you also know that it was almost extinct in the world, and you carried so much evil, how could you sit firmly in the position of Buddhism." After all, cause and effect itself is the foundation of the Buddha's position. ”
Miao-good is silent. yes! What could she say?
As a Buddha, killing people is evil, and she understands it. There was nothing wrong with five hundred monks and nuns giving her their lives in exchange for this.
Xiao Qing was stunned by such a secret news, and she didn't know what kind of reaction to do at all.
"Give up! That in itself is your sin. From the moment you give up your hands and eyes, you should think that this evil is actually borne by you. You should understand. King Miao Zhuang did not receive the understanding of the five hundred monks and nuns. ”
Ning Caichen thought of the transcendence that Xu Hai had done for the dead soldiers. They want to be reincarnated, and they also have to repent of their murderous sins, and even get forgiveness from the other party.
How did the enemy answer them?
"Haha! You Song people are cowardly and boneless, tearing and killing on the battlefield, where is there any evil or evil. He even had to atone for his sins before he could be reincarnated. Then you get down on your knees and beg me!"
This is an insult, a great insult to the soul of a soldier who defends his home and country.
At that time, even Ning Caichen couldn't bear to look at it anymore.
But for the sake of reincarnation, there are still people who kneel.
But they laughed and said, "Do you think you can get Uncle Ben's letter of understanding by kneeling? No, never." Uncle Ben is going to make you a lonely ghost that no one wants. Uncle Ben wants to see more of you become lonely ghosts, Uncle Ben wants to see if you all become ghosts, will this land resist us!haha!"
No one can be reincarnated. And without reincarnation, there will naturally be fewer and fewer people who dare to fight in the descendants of Yan and Huang. To this day, there is no way for them to reincarnate.
If the rules of Buddhism are to be eaten back on themselves one day, what is so strange and worthy of sympathy.
