Chapter 453: What Does It Have to Do with Our Enlightenment Sect Monks?
For the Buddhist believers in Tianzhu, there is no difference between "true omniscience" and "Buddha".
Although Emperor Tianzhu did not believe in Buddhism, the national conditions of Tianzhu were like this, and it was not something that could be easily controlled by manpower. If you want to clean up the Buddha Gate in Tianzhu, it is even more impossible.
And the reason why he wanted to make friends with Master Sanzang back then was to use the influence of Master Sanzang to integrate the Tianzhu Buddhism.
He had already expected that after Master Sanzang went to Lingshan to learn the scriptures, his momentum would definitely reach a higher level, but he never expected it. It will be like this that the three Buddha Sects will be preached in the Three Realms.
It's a pity that he is just a mortal king, and he doesn't know what kind of grand event Master Sanzang has experienced in Lingshan.
Emperor Tianzhu suddenly felt that if he was a master of Sanzang, he was not unable to believe in Buddhism.
But I didn't see the princess who hadn't put out her mind yet, didn't she also learn about this incident and completely broke her thoughts?
It's just that the look of her own girl looking at Master Sanzang has changed from her love in the past to her devotion and worship today. There is a great tendency to become a nun and follow the Sanzang Master.
Therefore, Emperor Tianzhu also had a headache for this matter, and he couldn't think of any countermeasures for a while.
Fahai could feel the princess's emotional changes, in fact, on the way to practice, this kind of state of mind is a very taboo, and it will leave a very serious hidden danger.
"Amitabha."
Fahai recited the Buddha's name, and did not go to see the princess for the time being, but said to the emperor of Tianzhu Kingdom: "Listen to the words of the prince, Your Majesty will hold an uncovered conference every day, and you want to take the poor monk as the abbot?" β
"Yes." Emperor Tianzhu nodded and said, "I don't know what the Holy Buddha will do?" β
Fahai smiled: "This is a good thing, the poor monk will naturally not refuse, but there is one thing, you need to inform Your Majesty first." β
"Although the Holy Buddha says, I will not allow it."
"The poor monk established a Buddhist sect, called the 'Wisdom Sect', I wonder if it can be established in Tianzhu to inherit the Taoist system?"
Emperor Tianzhu did not say yes, but asked Master Sanzang for advice: "I wonder if I can listen to the Holy Buddhism first?" β
"Good!"
Fahai is indispensable, and then concisely explained to the emperor of Tianzhu Kingdom some of the essence of Buddhism of the "Wisdom Sect".
The emperor of Tianzhu did not like Buddhism, but he did not resist pure Buddhism, so his own Buddhism cultivation was not low. It is precisely because of this that when he heard the "Wisdom Teachings", he was even more shocked.
Compared with the names of Buddhism that "bewitched" the people, the emperor of Tianzhu Kingdom can be very sure that this "Enlightenment Sect" is absolutely very different from other sects, especially in the purity of the study of Buddhism, which is beyond the reach of other sects.
It is not so much about studying the Dharma as it is about studying the "beings of the Three Realms" and practicing an alternative method to practice.
Even Emperor Tianzhu himself almost couldn't resist the temptation after hearing this, and wanted to leave the affairs of a country behind and concentrate on studying and practicing the "Wisdom Teachings".
It is no wonder that the more advanced the Dharma, the more difficult it is to resist the "teachings of consciousness", which is the case.
Otherwise, when the Buddha was on the three honorable names for the Three Tibetan Masters, why didn't he see the guardians to stop him?
Because even the most stubborn old monks in Lingshan are very convinced of Master Sanzang's Buddhism, and think that the Buddha's promotion of Master Sanzang's Three Paths is a matter of course, and there is nothing wrong with it.
Even, they are ready to find a time to leave Lingshan and go to Datang to officially worship the "Wisdom Sect".
Although Venerable Sanzang did not hesitate to hide the "teachings of wisdom", for them, of course, they hoped to consult with Venerable Sanzang himself.
This has led to some anxious people who have gone to Chang'an, and it is inevitable that some of them have already achieved positive results, and although none of the Buddhas have come, the Bodhisattvas and Arhats, as well as some monks and monks, and bhikshunis, have already appeared in the Tang Dynasty.
It's just that unlike the implied arrogance in Xizhou in the past, this time they came to Chang'an, and they actually had a humble appearance.
Especially when they knew that the Son of Heaven of the Tang Dynasty was the sworn brother of Master Sanzang, they took the initiative to visit, which made Li Shimin feel a little flattered for a while.
But after all, he was a hero, sitting in charge of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and the heavenly khan who was served by all states, coupled with the majesty of his own emperor, he quickly accepted and adapted to the status quo.
The two sides negotiated, and the scene was very harmonious.
Li Shimin learned from the mouths of the monks what happened after the Jade Emperor returned to Lingshan, and the monks did not hide anything, after all, after Sanzang returned, the Tang Dynasty Emperor would know sooner or later.
Besides, they came to worship and vote for the "Wisdom Sect", what does the person lost by the Lingshan monks have anything to do with their Wisdom Sect monks?
And they naturally knew that Master Sanzang was obviously the first to go down the mountain, but they didn't come back to inquire again, only to know that Master Sanzang was invited by the king of Tianzhu to talk about Buddhism at the Tianzhu Kingdom Uncovered Conference, and it was the "teachings of wisdom".
Then they bid farewell to the Tang Dynasty and went to Tianzhu to listen to the "sect leader" preaching.
These monks can be said to have come and gone in a hurry, which also made the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers see enough excitement, and they are even more proud that the Tang Dynasty has produced a Sanzang Master.
Imperial Palace Inner Garden.
Empress Eldest Sun looked at Li Shimin, who hadn't closed his mouth much in the past few days, and couldn't help laughing: "Your Majesty hasn't laughed like this for a long time." β
"Really?" Li Shimin smiled unabated, "When the royal brother returned last month, didn't I smile?" β
Empress Changsun glanced at Li Shimin, and said helplessly: "Your Majesty still has the heart to joke with your concubines, isn't it worried that your royal brother will be left in Tianzhu by the emperor of Tianzhu Kingdom?" β
"Hahahaha-" Li Shimin laughed a few times when he heard this, "Although I have only met the royal brother a few times, I know the royal brother's fundamental character. Even staying in Lingshan to be a Buddha can't make him excited, just a Tianzhu country, what size can he keep his royal brother? β
"Besides." Li Shimin said with a smile: "My China is the root of the royal brother." β
It is difficult for Empress Changsun to disagree with this.
"I heard that Cheng Qian worshipped Li Chunfeng as a teacher some time ago?" These days, Li Shimin has a lot of big and small affairs, and it is inevitable that he will pay less attention to this waste prince.
But Empress Eldest Sun is different, Her Majesty's children, whether they were born to her own or not, she never dared to slack off. But even so, she was still a little frustrated in her heart, because she found that although her sons were very afraid of her and respected her, they always seemed to be unable to teach well.
If Cheng Qian is the eldest son, plus he suffers from a leg disease and has a deviation in his heart, it is finally an excuse; But Qingque's grudge-holding temperament, could it be that he was born?
Finally taught a pheasant slave, but he seems to be too gentle, maybe the future is the holy monarch in the mouth of the courtiers. He is the emperor who is most favored by courtiers like his brother.
"Although Cheng Qian has been with Master Sanzang for a few days, according to his own words, Master Sanzang said that he has nothing to do with Buddhism" Empress Changsun sighed lightly and said: "But he seems to have lost his heart to become a monk, and if Buddhism does not accept him, he will enter the Taoist Gate. Taishi Ling Li Chunfeng is my master of the Daomen, so he went to worship the master. β
"Li Chunfeng is so bold, and he really dares to accept him as a beginner." Although Li Shimin's words were heavy, Empress Changsun could actually hear it, and he was not angry because of it.
"Forget it, let him go." Sure enough, after a few breaths, Li Shimin continued, "Let him follow Li Chunfeng to cultivate. But don't take it lightly, this kid is not a fuel-efficient lamp. β
The eldest grandson queen said in her heart: After all, it is your son, where is there any fuel-efficient lamp?
When the crown prince and the king of Wei competed for the position of prince, the eldest grandson empress even had such an idea: regret that she should not have so many children, but let them kill each other.
But who does she want to help as a mother?
And if there really is that day, he can't complain about others, after all, he is the father who sets an example for his sons.
Tianzhu country, the west of the confluence of the Yanmuna River and the main stream of the Ganges River, the river alluvial water into a radius of fourteen or fifteen miles of sandy beaches, the kings have held almsgiving meetings here, so this place is also called the "Great Charity Field", the uncovered conference is set up here.
This meeting was grand, and because of the name of Master Sanzang, it gathered more than 500,000 people at one time.
Among them are the monks, the shamans, the brahmins, and the poor and lonely. There are also Tianzhu kingdoms, and the kings of various clans have come here to participate in this uncovered conference.
The conference was a great success and came to a successful conclusion on the seventy-fifth day.
During the period of almsgiving to the kings, Venerable Sanzang talked about the wonderful uses of the Dharma, the most purifying of which is the "Ten Kinds of Freedom".
The so-called freedom is that the mind is free from the shackles of troubles, and there is no hindrance.
And the ten kinds of freedom are: longevity, heart, solemnity, karma, birth, liberation, desire, divine power, dharma, and wisdom.
After the end of the Uncovered Conference, Fahai naturally wanted to leave.
However, the Tianzhu Emperor connected the kings and wanted to leave a hundred temples to leave holy Buddhas in Tianzhu to make offerings, but Fahai firmly refused.
Master Sanzang is leaving, how dare they force them to stay?
In addition to being disappointed, he was still reluctant to send Master Sanzang all the way out of Tianzhu Country.
In fact, Master Sanzang originally promised to go to Jinping Mansion, Yuhua Prefecture and Fengxian County to visit and preach Buddha on the way back, but this time, there were people coming from these three places, so when people passed by the three places, they did not deliberately stay.
This way out of Fengxian County, the master and apprentice and his party drove away in the clouds, and when they passed the Wuyin Mountain, the great sage in front of them said: "Master, the front is to destroy France." β
"Master." The Great Sage scratched his head and said to Master, "I remember that when we passed by to destroy France, Master seemed to have promised the Lord of the country one thing. β
"Yes." Fahai naturally did not forget this incident, "Back then, the destruction of France was due to the cholera in the temples in the country, so he destroyed the 'monks', and he was afraid that the Buddha would be angry with the Buddha because of this. Therefore, the teacher once said that when he went to Lingshan, he would ask the Buddha for advice on his behalf, whether the Buddha would be angry because of this. β
"But Master, did we all forget to ask?"
"Nope." Fahai shook his head and said, "I haven't forgotten to be a teacher. β
Bajie was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Master, I really forgot the old pig, but since you remember, Master, why didn't you ask the Buddha for advice?" β
"Because of this, there is no need to ask the Buddha about it. Because no matter what he thought in his heart, he had only one answer. β
Wujing followed the master's train of thought and said, "The Buddha can only say, and can only say, 'He will not be angry', and he can't praise the lord who destroyed France. β
While everyone was talking, they saw that the clouds behind them suddenly converged into a Buddha shadow, which instantly triggered a commotion to destroy the French subjects.
The lord of France got the report of the guards, and hurriedly went out of the main hall, looked up at the clouds, but saw that before his auspicious cloud Buddha shadow, there were still a few trances, and then it became clearer and clearer.
"Oops!"
The Lord of Extermination exclaimed: "The Holy Buddha is here!" β
"We meet the Holy Buddha!"
Under the leadership of the lord of the French kingdom, a group of subjects bowed down to Sanzang.
Fahai held them up with mana in time and said, "Don't kneel when you see a poor monk." β
Since the decree of Lingshan spread all over the world, the name of Master Sanzang in various countries in Xizhou has changed from "Master Sanzang" to "Holy Buddha".
As for the title of "Holy Buddha", even if Sanzang has made it clear many times that he does not accept it, it is useless at all. Especially after the end of the Uncovered Conference, the name of this "Holy Buddha" is even more unstoppable.
After all, even those monks of Lingshan called Master Sanzang like this, and they mortals just followed suit.
Moreover, they already thought that Master Sanzang was well-deserved and fully worthy of the name of this "Holy Buddha".
Even though it is called "Liberation Heaven", "Mahayana Heaven" and "Positive Omniscience", Kefahai's state of mind, as always, has not caused any twists and turns.
For the monks of Lingshan, let alone these three honorific titles, even if they are any of them, they will never be able to maintain their true intentions like Master Sanzang.
The other way around, so they don't get it either.
Fahai fell from the clouds, stepped on the earth with both feet, and folded his hands and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha." β
The last time I saw Master Sanzang, Master Sanzang also said that he was a "mortal monk", but when we met again today, Master Sanzang had become a Buddhist "omniscient".
It can be seen that the Dharma of Master Sanzang is profoundββ
When the master landed, several juniors and disciples also fell down from the clouds, but the great sage hung in the air, and even took out the golden hoop stick and stopped it in front of the auspicious cloud Buddha shadow.
"Holy Buddha. Great Sage: This is? β
Fahai pointed to the auspicious cloud Buddha shadow in the sky and said: "This Buddha shadow must be the Buddha who exerted his magical powers and appeared here." β
If you come to the Buddha?
If you want to say that the destruction of France is really worthy of the destruction of France, everyone only glanced at it a few times, and then stopped paying too much attention, after all, the real "Holy Buddha" is in front of them, but there is no need to be reluctant to seek the near and far.
Moreover, when there was turmoil in the country, it was Master Sanzang who helped the country get through the difficulties, not the Buddha.
