Chapter 371: Brother Monkey, You're Looking; Go to the Demonsless and Strange, a mortal realm
Kinnara Bodhisattva, Fahai naturally knows, but it is only limited to knowing that Lingshan once had such a great protector.
At this moment, when he heard that this Kinnara Bodhisattva was the Great Sage of the Demon Realm, he inevitably had some doubts in his heart.
This also made him have another thought in his heart, maybe he didn't come from the afterlife through time and space, the so-called one sand and one world, why did Yi Ye Yi Bodhi appear in this world, and why did he become the Sanzang Master who was about to set off to the West Heaven to learn scriptures, I am afraid there is another reason.
Because of the lesson, Fahai will not hold on to things that he can't figure out for the time being.
And this kind of thing, I don't know it, I don't know, even if I want to break my head, I can't figure out the reason, instead of wasting my mind, it's better to look at the things in front of me.
Although the Great Sage frowned when he heard this at first, his expression soon returned to normal, and he didn't say anything more, presumably the master had his own plans.
"Goku."
Fahai transmitted to Wukong: "This matter is related to the demon world, and the Buddha and the Jade Emperor are in charge, if we want to exert ourselves, we will not shirk our responsibility. For now, let's do the things at hand first. β
"Yes." The Great Sage answered, and then said, "Disciple will go to the country of poor women. β
"Go ahead." Fahai smiled and nodded: "The little white dragon has already gone first, you can find him to either act together, or branch the north and south, it is up to the two of you to discuss." β
The Great Sage threw himself away.
If, as the Taoist said, such Buddhist temples are common in the two countries of the poor woman and the Dharma destroyer, it is simply the greatest stain on the Dharma.
Although they don't know why Lingshan sits idly by, since their master and apprentice have encountered it, they won't ignore it.
It's not about the Dharma, it's about the rules of conduct that they have when they walk the Three Realms.
Dawn.
The Taoist escorted the prisoner monk into Beijing.
The young lama monk was in a trance, standing outside the Zhenhai Zenlin Temple, looking at the former fellow brothers and elders, all with their hands bound and their faces hideous, without any Buddhist decency.
"Mage." The lama monk was a little flustered, and he asked the Sanzang Master beside him, "Is my move right or wrong?" β
"Right and wrong, in fact, it's all in one mind." Fahai looked at the obviously uncertain lama monk, and his face gradually became serious, "It shouldn't be commented on by others, but being born in the world, it is by no means a rootless ping, floating in the world and the earth, there is a causal entanglement, with causal entanglement, many times, it is also self-willed." The debate between right and wrong is also among them. β
This is all a clichΓ©, and in fact, it has no practical significance, but from the mouth of Master Sanzang, it makes the lama monk feel a little calm.
"You have also been chanting scriptures for more than ten years, what does the Buddha look like in your heart?" Fahai asked him.
Everyone has a Buddha in their hearts, and the Buddha in everyone's heart is by no means the same, and the Buddha in Fahai's heart is very different from the Buddha in the hearts of the monks of the Three Realms.
After all, a Buddha who kills and kills karma doesn't sound serious.
"The Buddha in my heart?" The lama monk was stunned, turned his head to look at the golden body on the main hall, he thought that his Buddha was like this in his heart, but when he looked over, he felt that the golden Buddha statue had a copper smell.
The Buddha statue, which was originally quite clear, became more and more blurry and untouchable as his mind deepened.
After a while, the lama monk slowly spoke: "I don't know that the Buddha is not visible in the little monk's heart, so there is no appearance." β
"I wonder what the Buddha looks like in the Master's heart?" The lama asked Venerable Sanzang rhetorically.
"Amitabha." Fahai recited the Dharma name and smiled at the lama monk: "Do you want to come in and have a look?" β
The lama monk was stunned, and some did not understand what Master Sanzang meant.
When his eyes met those of Venerable Sanzang, he felt that his soul was attracted by the whirlpool, swept by the storm.
When he opened his eyes and saw the light of the Buddha, his soul was shocked, and he returned to his body.
Tata!
His feet were so weak that he almost fell to the ground.
Fahai didn't help him, and the lama monk gradually came back to his senses by his own willpower, but his legs and feet were a little weak, so he sat cross-legged on the ground, folded his hands, and when he opened his eyes and looked at Master Sanzang again, there was a look of horror in his eyes.
Obviously, what Shi Cai saw was beyond his expectations.
"It's really a Tang monk." The lama monk was convinced, "What the right person sees, the little monk should remember it deeply, but never leak half a sentence." β
"It doesn't hurt to let people know." Fahai said to the lama monk: "You are a Buddha, I am a Buddha, he is also a Buddha, everyone is like a Buddha, everyone is a Buddha, this is the true Buddha." I'm not afraid of people knowing, I'm afraid people don't know. β
The lama monk showed a bitter face and said: "The little monk's Dharma is shallow, and there is no realm, the master's Zen machine is profound, and the little monk is difficult to understand for a while." β
"Amitabha."
Fahai recited the Buddha's name, and then said no more.
Fahai looked at his own heart, on the turbulent waves, saw a shirtless monk, the monk attached to the dragon, stepped on the turtle, the Zen staff in his hand hummed, and one hand stood alone on his chest.
On the opposite bank of this monk, there is a phantom of the world-honored person, and his body is disillusioned and ethereal, and there is no reality
Fahai looked at it, but that face was the appearance of the Shicai lama, and as his eyes touched, the face of the Buddha changed in an instant, and men, women, and children were all visible. In the end, the appearance of Master Sanzang gradually coincided.
Then it began to rotate between the faces of all beings.
The five masters and apprentices did not stay in Zhenhai Zenlin Temple for a few more days.
After the little white dragon and the great sage wandered around the Buddhist temples in the poor country and cleaned up the bandits and those who pretended to be Buddha, the five masters and apprentices set off to the west.
"Master, what did you say to that lama?" After waiting out of the realm of Zhenhai Zenlin Temple, the Great Sage couldn't help but ask, "How did you make him look like that?" β
The little white dragon who had not yet explored the mountains also pricked up his ears.
"It's just a few words of Buddhism." Fahai laughed: "Besides, his lama scriptures are not authentic, there are many biases, so he used some rough methods, broke the confinement in his heart, and left him some orthodox Zen Buddhist scriptures for the teacher, if he can learn the fur, it is enough for him to re-establish the foundation of Zhenhai Zen Forest Temple." β
Zen.
Although today's Zen Buddhism has spread in China, it is still slightly weaker than other major sects.
But Fahai is different, he is a figure of the Song Dynasty.
"The Buddha is worshipable and respectable." Fahai said to a few disciples, "You can't ask for it. β
Similar words, Fahai has not said to a few apprentices once or twice.
"Buddhahood is not something you seek, you rely on your own practice." Fahai said to the Great Sage: "That Taoist once asked me that there are many monks in this temple who worship Buddha devoutly, so why they can't be blessed as teachers, and I also have doubts about this. β
"Master, has you figured it out?"
"I didn't figure it out, but I got a little bit." Fahai held the nine-ring tin staff in one hand and the other hand on his chest, "Buddha Yun: If you see me with color and ask me with a voice, you are walking in an evil way, and you can't see it." β
The Great Sage thought for a while, and said curiously: "Master, then let's go on this trip to seek scriptures, aren't we doing evil ways?" Can't see it? β
Bajie smiled when he heard this: "Brother Monkey, we didn't go to ask for scriptures when you were in love, it was the Buddha who invited the Bodhisattva and chose the master to go to Lingshan to learn the scriptures." β
"Learning from the scriptures, not seeking the scriptures." Bajie shook his head, "It doesn't matter if you don't see it, let's take the Buddhist scriptures and leave, as for worshipping the Buddha, the master said that the Buddha is in the heart, then there is a spiritual mountain everywhere, and worship in the heart."
The great sage looked at Bajie's body of nearly 500 catties, and he was afraid that there were 480 catties of backbones, and this old pig had less and less respect for Lingshan and the Buddha.
Summer.
At the beginning of the smoked wind, the plum rain is silky.
The green and dense are dense, and the wind is light and the swallows attract the chicks. The new lotus turns over the swamp surface, and the bamboo is gradually helped by the Su.
The master and apprentice went all the way to the west, and the little white dragon was exploring the way ahead, but on a path in the high willow forest, he was grabbed by an old woman and caught in his hand.
I'm pinching my own scales.
The little white dragon was horrified, and when he was about to struggle to get out, he was sent by the old woman to a little girl on the side.
The little white dragon subconsciously sniffed, and was smelling a dragon breath, and before he could speak, he was pinched and played with by the little girl. When he was angry and wanted to turn into a human form, he saw the flower basket that the old lady was carrying on the crook of her arm, and his heart moved, and he said: "Disciple Ao Lie visits the Bodhisattva." β
Seeing that the deeds were recognized, the Bodhisattva also manifested his true body, and the little girl who held the little white dragon also became the appearance of the dragon girl of good fortune, and the dragon girl of good wealth put the little white snake on the ground, and the little white snake rolled on the spot and turned into a human form.
The little white dragon and the Bodhisattva are also acquaintances, although the Bodhisattva was teased just now, but the little white dragon didn't care, and after saluting the Bodhisattva, he asked, "Why is the Bodhisattva here?" β
"I'm waiting for your master and apprentice to come."
"The master and the brothers are still behind, and the disciples are exploring the way as pioneers." The little white dragon explained first, and then asked, "I don't know what demon is ahead, so I asked the Bodhisattva to wait here." β
"It's no wonder to go to the Demonless Realm, it's a mortal realm."
"Destroy France." The little white dragon followed the Bodhisattva's words.
The Bodhisattva glanced at the little white dragon and said, "It seems that you have already found something." β
While the little white dragon and the Bodhisattva were talking, the master and several senior brothers had already arrived at their side, and when they saw that it was the Bodhisattva who appeared, the master and apprentice naturally stepped forward to salute.
"Bodhisattva, like a Buddhist temple like Zhenhai Chanlin Temple, why doesn't Lingshan care?" Fahai is straight to the point, and there is nothing to hide from the Bodhisattva, just say whatever you want.
The Bodhisattva naturally wouldn't blame for this, but she didn't expect Sanzang to ask so directly, but she still said very patiently: "If you come to sit in Lingshan, all Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats will do their own thing, and Lingshan can't take care of it, let alone a Zhenhai Zenlin Temple?" β
"Your master and apprentice have come to the east, and the state of the western continent has been seen with your own eyes. Presumably, there is no need for the poor monk to repeat it. β
The Bodhisattva is now not covered by the Lingshan, Master Sanzang sighed when he heard the words, and said to the Bodhisattva: "The monks don't speak, the picture scroll depicted by the Bodhisattva in Chang'an back then, and what the poor monks saw, can be said to be very different. β
The Bodhisattva thought for a moment and said, "The land of Tianzhu at the foot of the Spirit Mountain is still consistent. β
Let's hope so.
Fahai sighed lightly in his heart, and then looked at the Bodhisattva's expression changed slightly, and the Bodhisattva he saw today seemed to be a little more tired than in the past.
The bodhisattva's mind seems to consume a lot.
Embodying thousands of Dharma bodies and doing good deeds in the human world to benefit sentient beings, even for bodhisattvas, is not an easy task.
In other words, the Bodhisattva could have been more relaxed, but she remained in this state that was almost close to the limit.
Buddhas are not omnipotent, and neither are bodhisattvas.
However, the Bodhisattva has passed on the reputation of "responding to requests" in the world, which shows the frequent appearance of the Bodhisattva in the world.
It seems that worshipping the Bodhisattva for the sake of the son, worshiping the Bodhisattva for blessings, worshiping the Bodhisattva for fame, and worshipping the Bodhisattva for wealth and seeking protection from the Bodhisattva seem to have become the mantra of the beings of the Three Realms when they encounter difficulties or dangers.
You can read it subconsciously.
It's cause and effect.
That is, the mind of a bodhisattva, which can bear it for life, and can also manifest itself everywhere.
"There are five or six miles ahead, and the capital of France is located." Guanyin Bodhisattva looked at Master Sanzang and asked, "You came from Zhenhai Zenlin Temple, where can you find out something about the current situation of destroying France?" β
"I know a little bit about it." Fahai nodded and told the Bodhisattva about the collusion between the Buddhist temple and the bandits to collect money. Then he paused for a moment, and said: "It's only now that I have entered France to know that the Buddhist temples in this country have been almost wiped out by the lord of the country." β
"It's not just the Dangping Buddhist Temple." The Bodhisattva sighed, his expression slightly melancholy.
The master and apprentice rarely saw the Bodhisattva showing such a humane expression, and when they were surprised, they heard the Bodhisattva continue: "This lord made a great wish two years ago to kill 10,000 monks, and in the past two years, he has killed 9,996 unknown monks. β
"Nameless monk?" The Great Sage exclaimed, "There are so many nameless monks in this country? β
"What about the famous monks?" Bajie asked.
"There are Bodhisattvas here, presumably those famous monks have been rescued." Fahai probably guessed why the Bodhisattva was here.
To put it nicely, those monks who don't read the disc are nameless monks; And the public calls them very unceremoniously - wild monks.
Like Zhenhai Chanlin Temple, there are still a few bandits who can seize the foundation of a temple, and most of them are interdependent. It's just that I didn't expect that two years ago, the lord of the country began to exterminate monks.
"But true monks are not necessarily innocent." Fahai thought of the presiding officer of Zhenhai Zenlin Temple.
The Bodhisattva nodded and responded, "The monk who committed the crime, the poor monk has already dealt with it with his own hands; Those false monks, who were also bandits who harmed one party, let the soldiers arrest them, and counted their lives. β
"Now I am waiting to come to the door, except for the little white dragon layman, we are waiting for the master to be exactly four famous monks." The Great Sage's tone was a little unkind, "Wouldn't the Bodhisattva let our master and apprentice fulfill his killing wish?" β
"You monkey head." The Bodhisattva pulled out the willow branch, stroked it lightly on his head, and said, "Even if he uses the luck of the country as a knife, he will not be able to cut off your monkey's head." β
