Chapter 210: First Gu Blow

Buddhism was the first major sect in the past, the incense was prosperous, and there were countless believers all over the world.

Even if in recent decades, there have been frequent scandals in Buddhism and the reputation has dropped to freezing points, it is unlikely that the believer base will disappear directly.

Now, with the rise of the doctrine of Heart Buddha, good men and women from all over the country have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and they have thrown themselves into the banner of Heart Buddha, claiming to be disciples of Heart Buddha.

But that's not all.

The appearance of the Heart Buddha Sect has only been two or three years, and the impression it has brought to the world is that there is only the concept of not holding the precepts and holding the Buddha in the heart, which is too empty.

According to this trend, the so-called Heart Buddhism will only become a safe haven for the old Buddhism.

As long as the limelight passes, the Lingshan Buddha stands up, and it is easy to absorb the Heart Buddha doctrine into the current Buddhism and pick the ripe peaches.

Jiang He naturally couldn't make a wedding dress for the demon Buddha.

If you want to avoid this situation, you can't just keep the mind Buddha on one doctrine.

There must be a complete concept, and even new sutras and new systems must be created for it.

Add to that a new era of doctrinal leaders who have been endorsed by the world.

In this way, a new Buddha sect can be formed, which is completely different from the Spirit Buddha and fights against each other.

[Believers in the world respect the Heart Buddha and claim to be disciples of the Heart Buddha. 】

[However, you know that the Heart Buddha seems to be full of flowers, but it is actually a rootless Ping, if it is not perfect, it will be devoured by the Demon Buddha. 】

[If you want to perfect the doctrine, you will fight against the Spirit Buddha. 】

[However, whether it is writing a book or preaching, it is necessary to carry the person. 】

【You decide ......】

[A: personally carry the Ding, B: entrust Wu You, C: find another Gaoxian, D: personally intervene. 】

Almost without thinking, the choice was made.

【Entrust Wu You】

Jiang He was very clear about his state of mind, he studied Buddhist scriptures and practiced Buddhism, just to cultivate martial arts and fight the demon Buddha's sect, not really respect Buddhism.

Just like some Taoists, they will also study Buddhist scriptures and absorb the truth in them-

But they didn't follow the path of Buddhism, they just learned from it.

He has never set foot in the Buddha's path, but he has become the leader of the Heart Buddha Sect, claiming to respect the Dharma of the Heart Buddha, which is too hypocritical.

Even this name may bring him great prestige.

And when the Heroic Spirit is engraved in the future, the corresponding power will be derived.

He wasn't happy to do it either.

"I have gone against the tide of time, and I have left countless amazing legends, why covet the name of the Heart Buddha?"

"The leader of the Heart Buddha is naturally the disciple of the Heart Buddha."

"What's more, I lead Wu You on this path, and if he becomes an epic character, I can also get the corresponding bonus."

[You want to carry the tripod with martial arts, so you talk, describe the antecedents, and invite you to pass on the Fa. 】

[Wu You exclaimed: The disciple is still studying Buddhism, but he doesn't know much, why do he teach the Fa and undertake this important task? 】

[The talent of the teacher is far better than the disciple, and he should carry the crown. 】

[Shake the first words: If you have not entered the Buddha's path, you will not steal the Buddha's name. 】

[I asked again: Those who preach the Dharma and discuss the Tao are all Buddhas? 】

[Wu You replied: No, the monks also preach the Dharma scriptures and discuss the Buddha's intentions. 】

[Not much to say, it knows what you mean.] 】

[The way of seeking is long, there is no end, the Buddha goes first, then looks back, and the future generations. 】

[Although it is not better than the Buddha, it has also been the first, looking back, because of the evil monks, the world has many deviations, and it is reasonable to hold high the lamp, illuminate the way ahead, and seek the Buddha's way. 】

[After a long talk, he promised to carry the tripod and transform the world. 】

No matter who it is, looking at Wu You's three-meter-tall head and rough face, he can't say the word "child".

But in fact, Wu You is only in his early twenties.

In Da Luo, where the average age is more than 80, he is a teenager at most.

Even in Buddhism, he has won many bodhisattvas and arhats, but he doesn't feel how powerful he is, and when he encounters a problem that he doesn't understand, he still asks to teach Mr.

Therefore, when Ega said what he meant.

He was a refusal trifecta on the spot.

If you don't understand Buddhism yourself, how can you teach others?

Not to mention, Jiang He also hoped that he could write down his understanding and perception when studying Buddhist scriptures, print them into books, and give them to those who worship the Buddha.

Write a book and talk about it?!

I haven't learned to climb yet, and my husband wants to let himself fly?

But Jiang He changed his mind with only one question.

"Could it be that all those who teach the scriptures and teach their disciples in the world are true Buddhas who have attained enlightenment?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

How is this possible.

Don't talk about the real Buddha.

In many monasteries, the monks who serve as monks have not studied Buddhism for many years, and they may not understand the scriptures.

Even, there are some evil monks who have taken the wrong path.

What kind of teachings can such a person give?

At this moment, Wu You understood Jiang He's deep meaning and remembered his responsibility and mission-

Remove the obstacles of the faithful of the world and lead them on the right path.

As a result, he was no longer immersed in the boundless sutras.

Rather, it is to walk out of the ashram and into the earthly world.

To practice the Dharma in your heart.

As for self-cultivation......

Didn't you teach back then?

Cultivating Buddha doesn't have to be confined to a location.

Once you have entered the Buddha's door, the path you take is the Buddha's way.

He can practice Buddha in the ashram.

It is also possible to practice Buddha in the mortal world.

……

The spirit child realized that he entered the world to spread the Fa, and this matter quickly spread all over the world.

Whether it is the disciples who truly revere the Dharma of the Heart Buddha, or the followers of the Spirit Buddha of the old days, they are extremely excited and have rushed to listen to the Dharma-

In the depths of the hearts of many believers, the Dharma of the Heart Buddha may still be controversial.

However, the Buddhist attainments of the spirit child to realize worries are undisputed.

After all, having experienced so many authoritative certifications of Bodhisattvas and Arhats, it is true that he has made a name for himself and is the top of Buddhism.

On the first day of the opening of the altar, 100,000 believers were brought to the scene, and the scene was crowded.

Fortunately, Jiang He had expected it, and chose the location in an open place with easy access, and cast spells to derive many golden lotus jade seats.

No matter how high or low, you can sit and listen to the Fa.

Hunger has peaches, thirst has elixir.

The pomp and circumstance are shocking to watch.

If it were a different person, most of the extravagant and grand posture alone would have attracted some unsightly bad comments before the lecture began.

It's too vain to spend all your mind on pomp and circumstance, right?

However, the person who created this pomp was Gu Xuntian, so it would be fine.

After all, for so many years, Gu Xuntian's temperament has long been known to the world.

His attitude towards external objects is not a weak understanding of ordinary people, but a complete lack of care in his heart-

He would stay in the villagers' homes and drink coarse grain and little water; will not deliberately refuse the feast of the wealthy, and gladly accept those delicacies of the mountains and seas.

Do what you want, move with your will.

I don't change my mind in order to cater to other people's words.

This kind of unpretentious freeness made many monks feel good, thinking that there was the style of immortals in ancient times.

On the contrary, Wu You sat on top of the central golden lotus, looking a little restrained.

That is, his skin was tanned, otherwise the believers would have seen his red face.

The children were ashamed of this pomp.

However, when he was ready to give a lecture, all distracting thoughts were abandoned.

Recalling the truth in the Buddhist scriptures, he calmed down, and his heart was like water.

When he spoke, the sound of a thick voice reached the ears of every believer without distinction.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The first time I came into contact with the scriptures, it was not with books, but with the sound of my mother's chanting......"

The believers thought that the spirit child would understand the worries and would give a lecture on a certain universal Buddhist scripture to analyze the truth and let them know the true meaning of the Buddha.

But he never thought that what he opened his mouth to talk about was his past experience of coming into contact with Buddhist scriptures, as well as his own mental journey.

Even if he mentioned the scriptures, it was only the answer he got after asking his mother.

I didn't say much about my own understanding and perception.

This surprised the believers.

In particular, some believers with noble status who have listened to the lectures of the monks of the great temple are even more confused......

What is this teaching? How is it like a Mengtong story!

Could it be that Lingtong used this kind of Mengtong story to refute many Bodhisattva Arhats?!

Only Jiang He listened with a smile and no surprise.

Profound Buddhist scriptures?

What do I mean?

Wu You naturally understands this, and has enough eloquence to make everything intoxicating.

After all, he was taught by Jiang He himself, and he penetrated the children of the entire Leiyin Temple.

But Wu You didn't do that.

The reason is simple.

This lecture gathered 100,000 believers, and the momentum was huge.

But there are hundreds of millions of Buddhist believers in the world?

It's only 100,000, but it's just a drop in the bucket.

Even if Wu You's never-ending preaching, the believers who can come and listen in person are only a few after all.

Therefore, Jiang He suggested that Wu You write a book and speak.

He was able to print a large number of books out of his own pocket and supply them free of charge to believers all over the world.

As long as everyone has a book on teaching, even if they don't open the altar to teach the Fa in the future, it will benefit thousands of years.

So, since we have chosen popularity, we naturally have to carry it out to the end-

Wu You plans to use the most simple language to integrate the truth in the scriptures into his own life experience and into the stories.

Even those who are illiterate can understand the true meaning of the Dharma through the oral accounts of others and from the stories.

As for the truly esoteric texts that explain the Dharma......

There are already too many in the world, and he doesn't feel that he understands more thoroughly than the great monks who wrote the scriptures in the past.

If the believers need it, they can read the scriptures directly.

Wu You's current lecture is not only a process of creation and recording, but also a verification of the feasibility of this method.

Whether it's him, or Jiang He.

At this time, the focus is not on the rich believers.

It's those who can't afford to buy scriptures, or even can't read, but who worship the Dharma and have a heart for the Buddha.

The results were quite encouraging.

These devotees rarely have the opportunity to go to the temple and listen to the teachings of the senior Buddhist monks, and they do not have a lot of relevant experience.

They were surprised to hear Wu You tell his past experiences and stories, and they were still listening carefully out of expectation and respect for the spirit child.

When they really listened, they felt a little empathy.

You must know that during the Luo Dynasty, the status of Yiren was not high.

Wu You's family is poor, and his mother only has a scripture in her hand that is about to be turned over.

What he went through was something that many believers had like.

Many of his followers have thought about similar questions.

When Wu You finished telling a story.

Those believers who do not understand the mystical Buddhist scriptures are like waking up from a dream.

It turns out that the truth that my Buddha wants to express wants to tell the world the true meaning.

Not only in the mystical Dharma, not only in the solemn temples, not only in the mouths of the monks.

Also in every little thing that happens around you.

At the same time, it dawned on them.

It turns out that this is the Dharma of the Heart Buddha!

The point is not that there are no precepts -

It's just that because of life, there is desire, and the precepts are far away from the Dharma, and the cart is turned upside down.

There is no need to pay attention to those rules and precepts, and there is no need to go to the temple to become a monk, but to focus on comprehending the Buddha's meaning and practicing the Buddha's principles.

Enshrine the Buddha in your heart, and your life is full of Buddhas.

……

A man sat on a lotus, his temples were white, the corners of his eyes were wrinkled, and he was not young.

He was completely immersed in Wu You's teachings.

Even, because I was touched in my heart, I couldn't help but shed tears.

But the more he was touched, the more confused he became.

Buddha's Principle, Buddha's Will.

Lingtong's teachings are not profound, but they always lead people to goodness, which is in line with his views on Buddhism in the first half of his life and his pursuit of Buddhism.

But......

"Master, since the Dharma you have talked about is full of teachings that lead people to goodness."

"Why are there so many monks who do evil and tarnish my Buddha's reputation?"

By the time the man realized that he couldn't help but ask, it was too late.

A sudden murmur interrupted the lecture.

Wu You looked at the man, and instead of getting angry, he smiled and spoke.

"Sir once asked me a question......

[Wu You preached, the disciple broke it, and asked: The Buddha is good, what monk is evil? 】

[Wu Youxiao recounted the old things, and then said: Because of the three refuges, the world regards Buddhism and monks as together, and believes in Buddhism and monks. 】

[However, monks are not Buddhas, they are not enlightened, they also have desires, and if they are trapped in profit, they will be evil. 】

[Therefore, learning Buddhism is not learning monks. 】

[The teacher said that Fang Jue Buddha's heart, and he could learn Buddhism. 】

[All disciples are enlightened. 】

[Since then, there have only been two remaining disciples of the Heart Buddha, taking refuge in the Buddha, taking refuge in the law, and not taking refuge in the Sangha. 】

Wu You's first lecture lasted for a whole month.

The morning begins and the evening ends, leaving only the rest of the evening.

After such a long lecture, not many believers returned, but gathered more and more.

Later, nearly a million believers came to listen to the Fa!

The more people there are, the more problems there are.

In addition, Wu You's visitors do not refuse, and they will answer all questions.

This led to a doubling of the content recorded, with only half of Wu You's daily stories and the other half being a variety of Q&As.

With so much content, it's hard to cram into a book.

Fortunately, Jiang He earned a little money by building a monk's ring.

In addition, you can reduce certain costs by investing your own funds to establish paper mills and printing houses.

So with a wave of his hand, he divided these contents into four volumes.

Wu You's daily story is named "Lingtong Learns Buddhism", and the Q&A is directly named "On Buddha", which is divided into two volumes.

In the future, Wu You will open the altar to teach the Fa again, and if there is content, additional books will be added.

"Although it cost a little more, the purpose has been achieved."

"After these days of preaching, the concept of the Heart Buddha Sect has been completed, which is enough to compete with the Demon Buddha Sect!"

Jiang He was quite satisfied.

In particular, once the concept of "two refuges" is popularized, the sect of the demon Buddha will be completely attacked.

If you are a believer, you only believe in the Dharma and the truth.

They all have an objective attitude towards the monks, the Buddhist temples, and even the Buddhist sects themselves.

Even if the Demon Buddha Sect absorbs the Heart Buddha Sect in the future, what is the use?

You've done so many evil things, and people don't believe you anymore!

When the Demon Buddha Sect lost its vast base of believers.

When Jiang He unveils the true face of the demon Buddha, he will not encounter so much resistance and doubt.

"Then again......"

"Whether it's Wu You's story of learning Buddhism, or the question and answer about Buddhism, my appearance ratio is so high......"

In the book "Lingtong Learns Buddhism", there is 5% of the content, which is about Wu You's childhood.

The remaining ninety-five percent was his experience when he was by Jiang He's side, and most of them comprehended the principles of Buddhism through Jiang He's daily actions.

People who don't know still think that Jiang He is the Buddha that Lingtong learned.

"On Buddha" is even more outrageous.

More than 80% of the pages, Wu You's opening remarks are "Mr. said", "Mr. asked me", "I asked Mr......

Directly changed the name to "The Teacher Said" and "Surveying the Heavens on the Buddha" without the slightest sense of disobedience.

Somewhat deliberately touted.

It's just that these are Wu You's heartfelt thoughts-

He began to study Buddhism with Jiang He at the age of eight, and many truths were learned from Jiang He.

You can't forcibly erase these, can you?

Jiang He didn't interfere too much, but he was a little weird in his heart.

"The people of later generations should not regard Wu You as the first Gu Blowing in the world......
