Chapter 30: The Buddha's Enlightenment
With the passage of time, the evolution and development of world affairs in many aspects, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court adapted to the status of dominance, and more adapted to the privileges given by the status.
The gods and immortals have also changed their mentality to a certain extent, and they are not very wholehearted about their respective duties, but they are also relatively conscientious.
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Western Buddhism have compiled a large number of Buddhist scriptures with their enlightenment, and the halls such as the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion and the Book Institute have appeared on the Lingshan.
It is said that Western Buddhism was opened in Lingshan, and due to the limited time and space of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, it can be said that it has not yet formed a scale and influence among the Three Realms, and has not yet become a holy place for the inner desires of all living beings.
Lingshan all kinds of buildings rise from the ground, a large part of the Buddhist Buddha and Bodhisattva are the original Sanqing sage generation disciples, although the Lord joined Buddhism, but all have their own dojo snobbery range and inner desires, who is willing to give up their respective dojo and desire to enter the Lingshan as the duty of the temple master Buddha Bodhisattva, accept a part of the limited duty mission?
As a Buddha, he has gained insight into the inner desires and cultivation of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the sect from the day he entered the spiritual mountain, and he knows that although he is now the ancestor of Buddhism, he is not the karmic teacher of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and it is not yet time to let the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas respect and revere themselves from the heart.
It would be extremely inappropriate to use the Buddha's body as a metaphor to assign them without regard to the inner desires of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
"What should I do?"
"Isn't there a way to deal with the delicate relationship between yourself and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas?"
"As a Buddha, if you can't handle the relationship with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Buddhism and can't promote the prosperity of Buddhism, then you are incompetent, what Buddha do you respect?"
If the Buddha sits cross-legged on the golden lotus, he can enter into contemplative enlightenment, and his enlightenment naturally has a dedication and prospect, and he has his own desire to make a rational judgment on the situation of the world.
There is enlightenment and gain, and the Buddha quickly realized that all the spirits in the world have the original wonderful method of mutual generation and mutual destruction of cause and effect, that is:
"All the spirits in the world intersect because of desire, want to give birth to fame and fortune, want to give birth to good and evil, and want to give birth to cause and effect!"
"Buddhism was founded, because all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas gathered with their own desires, and the result was how to eliminate the fame, fortune and evil desires of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas and their followers in the process of reviving Buddhism!"
"Because the desires for fame, fortune, and evil are all short-lived, and they cannot be nirvana, and they are the desires of extinction."
"There is only good desire in the world that can be repeated, but Nirvana can be fruitful, and it is the eternal good fruit of mutual birth!"
If the Buddha came to enlightenment and realized the holy path of cause and effect of Buddhism, how should he implement it?
As for solving his relationship with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, he still failed to solve it, but he thought of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and he knew that Guanyin Bodhisattva had extraordinary insight and had a method of cultivation that he did not have.
If you want to read it out, act to, if the Buddha in order to show his respect for Guanyin Bodhisattva, it can be said that he personally flew to Luojia Mountain Island in the South China Sea, and it is the main island to solve!
The Buddha arrived, the Bodhisattva welcomed, the lotus pavilion said cause and effect, through the Buddha's speech, Guanyin Bodhisattva to know its meaning, but also to know the Buddha's heart to open the revitalization of Buddhism of the grand wish, in order to understand the way of cause and effect cycle, want to use the heavenly way of cause and effect to believe in all souls.
So he said:
"Amitabha!"
"Venerable Buddha, Bodhisattva, I now use the Divine Insight Technique to gain insight and see how my Buddhism will develop and what future it will have!"
It is said that Guanyin Bodhisattva's ability to perceive is nothing more than reading mythological novels through the memory of the soul body and looking for answers in various books.
Avalokiteshvara was sitting quietly and thinking, and from time to time he thought of a solution to the problem that the Buddha was seeking.
It comes to mind that Western Buddhism should be expanded if it wants to develop benignly, and only by expanding can it solve the delicate relationship between the Buddha and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, and the expansion can alleviate the conflict and opposition of the inner desires of all parties.
What we found out is how Western Buddhism was codified in the future and how it developed in a virtuous circle.
Guanyin Bodhisattva opened his eyes from time to time and said:
"Venerable Buddha, Bodhisattva, I have an insight into my Buddhism in the future, under the leadership of Your Holiness, it can be said that there is a situation of catching up with and surpassing the current Taoism to unify the three realms, and in the future, Buddhist believers abound, and Zhou Tian has a belief in the theory of cause and effect."
"Venerable Buddha, now my Buddhism should be expanded, and the Lord should ask for the expansion of the early stage, as for the expansion of the level of the Bodhisattva, I know."
"In my Buddhism, the first-class organization is the Buddha, the second-class organization is the bodhisattva, the third-class organization is the arhat, the fourth-class organization is Vajra (shravaka), the fifth-class organization is the Saksha, the sixth-class is the bhikshu, the seventh-class is the novice, and the eighth-class layman (lay disciples and followers)."
"There are also those who have been recognized by the Heavenly Court as extra-orthodox Buddhist titles, such as Buddhist practitioners, supporters, Dharma protectors, messengers, etc., as for the hierarchical status, they are all among the Bodhisattvas and Arhats, depending on the specific object of Dharma protection, they are really the apologists of Western Buddhism, and they are also the coordinators and promoters of the relationship between Buddhism and the heavenly court and various sects."
If the Buddha was listening, analyzing the Bodhisattva's teachings, he said from time to time:
"Amitabha!"
"The Bodhisattva's ability has really injected infinite motivation into my Buddhism, and as a Buddha, I still have questions?"
"That is, my Buddhism has just been created, the Buddha and I have no intersection with the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the Heavenly Court, Bodhisattva, you and the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother have a relationship with the Bodhisattva, as for the expansion of my Buddhism, can you enter the Heavenly Court in person, enter the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to ask for the imperial decree, and strive for the privileges of the Heavenly Court for the Buddha, Bodhisattva, Arhat, etc. of Buddhism?"
Of course, Guanyin Bodhisattva understood the meaning of the Buddha, and thought to himself, who let this Buddhism expand the matter of his own lord proposed it, so he said:
"Good, Venerable Will, Bodhisattva Venerable!"
"However, Bodhisattva, I want to give the Buddha Venerable a relatively accurate explanation of the situation, under my insight, the Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Court and the Queen Mother will give me the privilege of the third-class and above sects of Buddhism to be included in the Heavenly Court, and those below the fourth rank are not within the scope of the privilege."
"As for the Buddhist orthodox external titles, such as practitioners, Dharma protectors, supporters, messengers, etc., are also among the privileges, this sutra is the limit, is not negotiable, Venerable, do you think it is okay?"
Of course, the Buddha understood what the Bodhisattva said, and his inner desire was that as long as the Bodhisattva, your lord, entered the heavenly court, it would be good to coordinate it for me, so he said:
"Amitabha, Bodhisattva toils!"
"For my Buddhism to flourish in the future, then please invite the Bodhisattva to enter the Heavenly Court Lingxiao Treasure Hall for a trip, Buddha I am waiting for good news in Lingshan."
Avalokiteshvara said:
"Venerable Please, Bodhisattva, I'll leave immediately, please ......!"
As he spoke, both of them flew up and went their separate ways!
