Chapter 6 The Born Buddha (New Book Sets Sail for a Monthly Pass!! )
Qing Chi looked indignantly at Senior Brother Qinghe, who made him make a face.
Wang Li silently glanced at the old monk who said, "This son is related to me".
These words are really familiar, and they also make people's hearts beat faster inexplicably.
It smells like that.
Qingchi watched the seven monks motionless, so he directly grabbed Wang Li's arm and was about to leave silently.
At this time, the abbot Qingzheng came forward again.
"Senior brother."
With just a soft call, Qingchi had to stop and obediently responded: "What does the senior brother command?" ”
"Come with me." The abbot turned around directly.
The rest of the people laughed and looked at Qingchi, and Qingchi glared back one by one, and then reluctantly took Wang Li's footsteps with the upper uncle.
Wang Li knew that he couldn't get out at this time, so he didn't bother to say anything, just thought as he walked.
Not long after, a group of people came to the meditation room in the depths of the White Dragon Temple.
The green bricks and blue tiles are difficult to hide the old.
The seven eminent monks sat in a row, and Qingchi dragged Wang Li, unwilling to let go.
"Senior Brother Abbot, if you have anything to say, say it as soon as possible, Senior Brother still has something to do, and the Scripture Pavilion can't be left unguarded for a long time."
As soon as these words came out, the other monks couldn't help but laugh.
Although the Qinghe monk is Qingchi's junior brother, he is the most daring and able to say: "Senior brother, let go of that child, this is a temple, don't let people think that you are abducting the child." ”
"Nonsense!" Refuted a sentence, Qingchi still let go of Wang Li.
Immediately afterwards, he said: "Now, don't hide it, the poor monk said bluntly, each of you has a disciple, but the poor monk has not yet accepted the apprentice, so the poor monk implores all the brothers and sisters to give this disciple to the poor monk!" As he spoke, he actually bowed deeply to the old monks sitting cross-legged.
Seeing this, although the Qinghe monk scolded him several times in a row, he had to stand up and move away at this time.
In any case, Kiyochi is his senior brother after all.
Unexpectedly, however, Kiyochi seemed to recognize his direction and turned to face him again.
Qinghe could only keep walking briskly to dodge, and when he came to the door like a trot, he finally couldn't help but shout: "Senior brother, don't deceive people too much!" ”
Qing Chi raised his head and said with a playful face: "Why did the junior brother say this?" ”
Wang Li watched from the side, and directly smashed his previous judgment of Qingchi.
The first impression is really deceiving, where is this sweeping monk, it is clearly a rogue monk!
"Senior brother, it makes no sense to say whether to let it or not, and it is up to him to decide who to throw into." The person who spoke up was none other than the old monk who had just said, "This self is related to me".
Qingchi turned around instantly: "Senior Brother Qingjiang, there are the most apprentices in the temple, why bother to compete with the poor monks?" ”
The Qingjiang monk smiled undiminishedly and shook his head slightly, "When will the poor monks fight?" It's just a fair remark. ”
"Alright."
It was the abbot again.
Qinghe then sat back down.
Abbot: "Qingchi, you can also sit." ”
"Yes."
The eight old monks sat down.
The abbot finally looked at Wang Li, and said kindly, "Child, are you willing to enter my Buddhist sect?" ”
Hearing this, Qingchi suddenly became anxious, he was good friends with Jingyuan, and knew that Wang Li was unwilling to become a monk, so he wanted to accept apprentices directly while the iron was hot just now, but was disturbed by several senior brothers. Now that Wang Li is afraid that he has come to his senses, if Senior Brother Abbot asks again, won't he be useless again?
Eight eminent monks looked at Wang Li at the same time.
Finally someone is willing to ask for my opinion!
Wang Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
From the time he walked out of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to the present, this group of old monks actually only let him say a word.
However, Wang Li did not dare to be disrespectful in the face of the old and kind abbot in front of him.
The White Dragon Temple is a place of practice, although the sect is scarce, not as good as those big sects, but it is also an ordinary temple. As the abbot of the White Dragon Temple, Master Qingzheng is by no means an idle person. What's more, Master Qingzheng's squinting appearance will always remind Wang Li of a certain sentence in his previous life.
He did not rush to answer, but pretended to be thoughtful.
Seeing this, the abbot of Qingzheng was not in a hurry, but turned his head to look at the junior brothers on both sides, and talked about another thing.
"Do you know what prerequisites you should have if you want to comprehend the Fa in the scriptures?"
Hearing this, several monks had a realization in their hearts, took their eyes off Wang Li, and responded one after another.
And Wang Li, too, got the answer from their exchange.
From the Buddhist scriptures, it is never a lie to realize the method of cultivation.
It's just that what the Pure Yuan Monk said was not so complete, and even missed the point at all.
First of all, Wang Li has already discovered that not all scriptures can be used to comprehend the true Dharma.
Behind the scriptures that are not sung by the Buddha, the person who copied them may be a young novice who has just been ordained, or he may be a layman. Although there are no errors or omissions in the text of such a scripture, the true method is not simply hidden in horizontal folds or between the lines.
Only those sutras that are uniquely supernatural, or written by monks who have been practicing hard for many years, or blessed by great monks with profound Dharma, or even those who have already cultivated the great power to inject Buddha rhyme, can there be those visions that Wang Li "heard", whether large or small, and different.
With this step, many monks have been excluded.
This kind of sutra is very rare, and it has always been passed down in an orderly manner, which is beyond the reach of outsiders, and it is rare for monks to see it.
Secondly, even if one or two Buddhist sutras were to be accidentally circulated in the world, it would be difficult to easily see the anomaly, just like the fifth volume of the Myoho-renge-kyo that Wang Li is now holding, even in this White Dragon Temple, has not been taken seriously, and has only been placed with six other ordinary scriptures for many years?
In the end, even if someone discovers the uniqueness and rarity of this text, it is not possible to comprehend the Dharma by holding it and studying it day and night.
Thousands of Buddhist gates in the world have been standing for countless years.
Such scriptures are rare, but many temples have inherited them to a greater or lesser extent.
And under such conditions, over the years, I have never heard of people in Buddhism often realizing the method of cultivation from Buddhist scriptures.
Those monks who have practiced for many years and have achieved success can take the time to slowly extract the Dharma from it, but this kind of action is no longer in the category of "understanding the Dharma in the scriptures".
In other words, what is said in the scriptures is true, and the wonderful Dharma of Buddhism is indeed true.
However, for the vast majority of Buddhist monks and monks, the reality is still very clear -
The scriptures are the scriptures, and the law is the law!
Otherwise, there would be no need for this huge pavilion to divide into different floors, place different scriptures, books, scriptures, and dharmas in different areas, and restrict access to certain floors.
After some exchanges, Wang Li's body gathered the attention of the monks.
The abbot of Qingzheng said slowly: "To understand the law in the scriptures, you first need to refer to the original meaning of the scriptures, and then concentrate on the emptiness, which is in harmony with the rhyme of the scriptures. If you are a mortal, you will naturally follow the steps step by step, and if you are successful in cultivation, you must return to the basics and comprehend with the heart of a mortal. Speaking of which, mortals have an advantage over cultivators. But the rhyme is obscure, and since mortals can't detect it, how can they understand it? ”
This is the biggest reason why since ancient times few people have been able to complete the enlightenment in the scriptures.
"However, there are exceptions to everything, thousands of years ago, the ancestor of Xuanxin only entered for three days, so that the Diamond Sutra could realize the true law of Buddhism.
Xuanxin Patriarch, a figure more than a thousand years ago, is also a legendary patriarch who has been active in Bailong Temple for the closest time.
Wang Li, too, chanted Amitabha Buddha softly.
Qingzheng Abbot: "Wang Li." ”
"The disciple is here."
"There are thousands of Buddhist temples in the world, since ancient times, the person who can understand the Dharma in the scriptures is called the 'natural Buddha', such characters, once they appear, they will be trained by the whole temple after entry, and in the future, they can enter the Leiyin Temple, the holy land of Western Buddhism, to receive the inheritance of my great teaching, to promote Buddhism, to live the world with compassion, to achieve natural merit, and to prove the fruit.
Are you willing to enter my Buddha's door? ”
This time the inquiry is obviously different from the last one.
Although the tone of the abbot remains the same, it is logical to popularize the benefits to Wang Li, although it has not been implemented, but because of this, it is more reverie.
Just ask, as a mortal, I suddenly learned that I was actually a "born Buddha", not only can I get the cultivation of the entire White Dragon Temple, but also enter the Leiyin Temple of Buddhism in the future.
However.
Wang Li thought more, since he could get so much preferential treatment from Buddhism after entering the school, the lay disciple could be directly avoided, and if he wanted to return to the vulgar in the future, it would be really like a dream.
You can't be allowed to eat and wipe clean, then put on your pants and turn around, and others will send you out with a smile, right?
I'm afraid I'm going to send you directly to the west.
Therefore, the obscure reminder of the abbot of Qingzheng has strengthened Wang Li's pursuit.
Again, it's impossible to become a monk!
The Guangli Bodhisattva in the temple always reminded him of his memories of Journey to the West.
The Buddhism in the Journey to the West, whether it is the original work or a derivative work, is not really serious, and the Romance of the Gods that can't be erased in his head makes him stay away from Buddhism, where can he still be a monk and send himself to the West Tianleiyin Temple in the future? Even if the White Dragon Temple gave him a decent feeling, the only monk he really knew from the White Dragon Temple was Master Jingyuan, and at most one Qingchi was added.
It is not yet known what the others will do.
Even if you take another 10,000 steps back.
He hastily ended his life before he got married in his last life, and finally had another chance, but you asked me to be a monk again?
No one should try to stop me from marrying a wife.
Neither did Shakyamuni.
