"Yes."

Ao Qing said: "The predecessors said before that the immortal who lives in the mountain is called Bodhi Patriarch. It reminds me of a story. Legend has it that Lao Jun went out of the Han Valley in the west, turned Hu into a Buddha, Shakyamuni saw Lao Jun's preaching in the West, and was also enlightened, so he inherited the past and the future under a Bodhi tree, and became a Buddha. ”

The woodcutter nodded slightly.

This is no secret. Even many mortals in the Three Realms regard it as an interesting thing and talk about it from mouth to mouth.

As a disciple of the Bodhi Patriarch, the woodcutter understands better that there is cause and effect.

But what does this have to do with "seeking the way"?

Without waiting for the woodcutter to ask, Ao Qing said: "Legend has it that the Buddha is an innocent body, and the Bodhi tree is also dust-free. But how can a mortal tree be dust-free? So I was thinking, it must be because someone often brushes the linden tree that it is free of dust and dirt. The Buddha should be like this, the Buddha is a mortal, how can he be an innocent body? He must have taken the Bodhi tree as a model. The body is a Bodhi tree, and the heart is a mirror platform. Always wipe diligently, don't make dust. ”

The woodcutter nodded again: "There is a lot of truth in this. ”

In the South China Sea, Guanyin Bodhisattva also unconsciously bowed his head.

The body is a Bodhi tree, and the heart is a mirror platform. Always wipe diligently, don't make dust.

The world thinks that the Buddha was born without a trace. In fact, many saints, sacred, and even human emperors have similar legends.

However, the real ones are not born to know everything and know everything.

It is all the hard work of the day after tomorrow that we have achieved such an achievement step by step.

Wipe at all times.

This is a simple but difficult truth to do.

If all mortals could do this, then perhaps the world would not be so muddy.

However.

This still has nothing to do with "seeking the road", right?

The woodcutter looked at Ao Qing with puzzled eyes.

Ao Qing continued: "But since you are a human being, you will definitely get into the dust. Even if you wipe it frequently, it's just a process of repeating it. You can never be truly 'pure'. So I thought. If the flesh is not pure, what about the soul? The human soul is born and is the purest existence. If you see through the essence and understand the 'Bodhi', then there will be no dust and dirt! Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust! ”

Rumble!

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day!

The woodcutter was stunned at first, and then couldn't help laughing: "Good understanding, good understanding!" ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva of the South China Sea finally understood why Ao Qing was able to complete the "road of seeking"!

Because, this "seeking the road" seems to lead to the "avenue", but in fact, it leads to the "Bodhi Patriarch". And how did Patriarch Bodhi attain enlightenment? It's because of the "heart"!

The body is a Bodhi tree, and the heart is a mirror platform. Always wipe diligently, don't make dust.

Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform. There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust!

These two verses can almost completely summarize the experience of the Bodhi Patriarch before he became enlightened.

And the so-called "seeking the way" is also the same.

The road itself, there are obstacles, there are restrictions, there are "dust". Never reach the end. This is "the body is the Bodhi tree, and the heart is the mirror platform." Always wipe diligently, don't make dust. ”

And when Ao Qing saw not the road itself, but "the mountain is no longer a mountain, and the water is no longer water".

The essence of the road will be revealed.

The end is in the heart, right in front of you. So, where are the restrictions, where are the obstacles, and where are the "dust"?

Therefore, the end is in front of Ao Qing!

This is "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform." There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust! ”

So.

Ao Qing was able to get through the quest.

In other words, he did not live the real path of seeking, but the ...... of the Bodhi Patriarch Heartway!

Bodhicitta Path!!

Guanyin Bodhisattva stood up and looked carefully at Ao Qing.

This truth seems simple, but in fact, it is by no means something that ordinary people can comprehend.

If nothing else, let's just say that just based on the story of "Buddha's enlightenment", we can see that "mountains are mountains, water is water", and "mountains are no longer mountains, and water is no longer water", which is already rare.

What's more, this son even used two concise Buddhist verses to summarize it so clearly!

Even, with this discovery, and through the bodhichitta path!

This is no longer limited to "profound Buddha nature".

However, just when Guanyin Bodhisattva was going to watch it again. Suddenly, the glow faded.

A heavy cloud instantly appeared in Guanyin Bodhisattva's eyes. I can't really see the scene inside Fangcun Mountain anymore.

Her "Heavenly Eye" was actually blocked by Patriarch Bodhi...... This?

Guanyin Bodhisattva couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled a little helplessly. It seems that this patriarch also knows that he is tempted.

But I don't blame myself for being tempted. If you want to blame, blame this Ao Qing, it is really a rare piece of jade.

Nowadays, Patriarch Bodhi obscures his vision. In other words, he has decided to take this son in.

Although there are still two tests, the test is just like the first test, and more is just a greater component of the "anticipation lesson".

In the test, help Ao Qing more and consolidate the foundation. It's like the warmth of the jade before it was carved.

Therefore, if Fang Cai himself still had some hope, now, there is almost no hope of taking in Ao Qing again.

"Where's the wooden fork?" The Bodhisattva suddenly spoke.

After a while, the Hui'an walker stepped forward to obey the order: "Bodhisattva." ”

The Bodhisattva said, "I'm going to Lingshan, and I'll leave the matter of leading the dragon girl to the Perfume Sea." ”

Hui'an Walker was stunned, didn't the Bodhisattva say before that the Dragon Girl Buddha has a deep nature and wants to guide herself?

But he didn't think about it, so he nodded lightly and said, "Yes, Mucha knows." ”

Guanyin Bodhisattva explained, and soon flew to the western spiritual mountain with a "divine foot pass".

She didn't want to trouble the Buddha because of the acceptance of disciples.

But Ao Qing's talent is too high.

Even Patriarch Bodhi didn't let himself "snoop" anymore.

Therefore, even if she didn't fight with the Bodhi Patriarch, she wanted to inform the Buddha about it.

……

……

Ao Qing's explanation of the woodcutter is not that he wants to copy this Shenxiu and Huineng's "Bodhi".

And what he relied on was not only Bodhi. Among them, there are also "Zhuangzi Tianxia Chapter", "Tao Te Ching" and some philosophical paradoxes of previous lives.

The truths expounded by these three have the same effect, and they jointly inspired Ao Qing.

It can be said that these contents are all the truths that he summed up after constantly meditating and revisiting on the "seeking the road".

Relying on the integration of these contents, Ao Qing found the "bodhicitta path" from the "path of seeking", and arrived at the place where the "glow" was.

It's just that if you explain to the woodcutter, you will naturally choose a statement that is closer to "Bodhi Patriarch".

After all, if you do this, you can also leave a good impression on the ancestor.

The woodcutter didn't know that Ao Qing had thought about so many thoughts, he looked at Ao Qing until, nine times out of ten, the little dragon in front of him was his junior brother.

However, thinking of the patriarch's instructions, he still smiled and said, "Xiaoyou, I admire your understanding very much." You see, even the patriarch is full of praise for you! ”
