Chapter 19: Buddhism

As soon as Jingye took Kong and his two disciples into the Daxiong Treasure Hall, Hu Haishan ran over in a hurry.

"Master Pure Industry, I've made a choice, so let's invite that Bodhisattva home to worship!"

Jingye was just about to answer, but he heard the empty mouth and asked.

"Oh? Is this benefactor going to invite a bodhisattva? Why did you invite Manjushri and not others? ”

"This, this ······"

Hu Haishan didn't know what to answer, and he couldn't say that he saw the manifestation of the Bodhisattva of Documents, so he invited Manjushri Bodhisattva.

Jingye saw Hu Haishan's embarrassment, and hurriedly said, "Amitabha, this Hu Shi Lord is related to Manjushri Bodhisattva, and he inadvertently believed in my Buddha by his enlightenment. ”

After speaking, he wrapped a statue of Bodhisattva that Hu Haishan liked and handed it to his arms. Hu Haishan solemnly took it and asked how much it cost.

"Donor, you don't need to, you can invite this Bodhisattva back is fate, and you don't need to mention these yellow and white things."

Jingye also wanted to say, 'You can just take 1,800 of them, and it's not too much', but Uncle Kong is standing aside now, and Jingye is embarrassed to speak, so he has to plan not to charge a fee.

Seeing this scene, the empty man on the side couldn't help but bow his head slightly, smiling and looking at the pure karma.

"Amitabha, pure karma, why don't you charge a fee? You must know that the Fa should not be passed on lightly, and others may not cherish the Fa that is lightly transmitted. ”

When he heard this, he knew that Master Kong was deliberately trying to test the Dharma he had studied, and after thinking about it for a while, he answered.

"Uncle, this is not true, Hu Shizhu came this time because he has received the Bodhisattva's on-demand, and he usually supports me a lot in Qingshan Temple, and this time he invited this Manjushri Bodhisattva is also his own blessing, and it has nothing to do with my pure karma."

Hearing this, he nodded slightly, then turned around and asked his two disciples, "You two come here, if our Baiyun Temple encounters this situation, what will you do?" ”

The two little monks didn't dare to lie, so they had to answer truthfully, "Master Hui, a Buddha statue of this size is generally about 1,000 yuan in Baiyun Temple, plus supporting things, 1,500 yuan is enough." After speaking, he lowered his head in shame.

"Amitabha! Alas, it was a matter of accumulating merit, but it was made for you to do as a deal! What a shame for all the good men and women! When they go back, each of them copies the scriptures a hundred times! ”

After saying a few words lightly, he looked at the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha on the main hall, and casually said to Pure Karma, "Pure Karma, what kind of Buddha do you say you are cultivating Buddha?" What kind of Buddha is this Hu Shi asking for Buddha? ”

As soon as this question came out, Jingye suddenly fell into contemplation, all along, he became a monk so that he could live, and he never considered why he practiced Buddhism, but he couldn't answer it for a while.

Suddenly, Jingye had an idea, touched the bald head that was a little prickly, and thought about it, since Uncle Kong asked so, he just answered truthfully.

"Uncle Hui, when you look up at this Buddha statue, is it shining and as clean as new after being taken care of by the disciples every day?"

He took a closer look at the spotless Buddha statue, nodded and said, "Indeed, it can be seen that you should take care of it every day to have such an effect." ”

"Then since this is the case, the Buddha statue is not damaged or anything, why should he be repaired?"

Pure karma continued.

was stunned for a moment, and the little monk of pure karma in front of him actually played word games with him.

"Amitabha, what I'm talking about is not the other."

Jingye smiled slightly, turned his head and bowed to the Buddha, and then said, "Uncle Shi, I think that if you cultivate Buddha and cultivate Buddha, you still cultivate your own Buddha!" All sentient beings have the wisdom of the Buddha, and everyone in the world has the Dharma of the Buddha, when to first cultivate the Buddha of oneself, and then talk about the Buddhas of others. ”

After speaking, I thought for a while, and added, "This is just some of my own opinions, I hope that Master Kong will not miscommunicate." ”

After hearing these words, he laughed heartily twice, and then said, "What a good one, cultivating one's own Buddha first, and talking about cultivating the Buddha of others!" It seems that you are a man of great wisdom! So what kind of Buddha is this Buddha that Lord Hu is praying for? ”

After speaking, he looked at the pure karma in front of him with anticipation.

"Hui Shibo, this Hu Shi Master is a businessman, the Buddha has Buddha rituals, and the business also has business, in fact, it is common, Buddhism mentions the cause and effect of good and evil, and the businessman also has the saying of buying and selling, and treating people with sincerity. In the eyes of the disciples, if you can do a good job in business, it is also another kind of practice, and from the perspective of Buddhist rituals, it is also a way to become a Buddha. When Hu Shi came to ask for Buddha, what he asked for was Hu Shi himself, and it was also Hu Shi's way of doing business. Master Hu, do you say yes or no? ”

It was too difficult to talk to this empty master, and Jingye threw the conversation to Hu Haishan, who was standing aside and listening, as he spoke.

When Hu Haishan heard this, he was also stunned, he just simply asked for a Manjushri Bodhisattva to go home and worship, but he didn't have so many messy thoughts, and there was no great truth about the way of doing business, but after thinking about what the master of Jingye said, he felt that it was quite reasonable, and he himself was also in strict accordance with the business theory of public sale and public sale that Jingye said, and treated people with sincerity, so he took over the words handed over by Jingye.

"Two masters, what Master Pure Industry said is very reasonable! I didn't even think about it myself. ”

Holding the Buddha beads in his empty hand, he whispered in his mouth: "Cultivate the Buddha first and cultivate yourself first, ask the Buddha to ask the heart first!" ”

"Good! Good! Good! Today, I will stay in this Qingshan Temple and worship the Buddha with everyone, I don't know if it is possible? ”

When the two little monks on the side heard this, they were stunned, the master usually doesn't go out of the temple, and today he actually wants to stay in this Qingshan Temple to worship the Buddha together.

"It is fate that Uncle Shi can come to my Qingshan Temple, of course this is okay!"

Jingye hurriedly said.

You must know that this empty monk is a celebrity within a radius of a hundred miles, if this news spreads, it is estimated that it will be more effective than the propaganda of the Buddhist association, and his own Qingshan Temple may be known by many people who believe in Buddhism at once.

As a result, there are three more in the Daxiong Treasure Hall, which usually recites the scriptures alone, at this time.

"I'll go get another futon!"

After saying a word, he went to the monk's dormitory alone and took out the pocket that was discarded under the bed at will, and took out the futon given by the system, which was smaller than the other futons, and the color was also dull, which should be due to the relatively long time of use.

When he returned to the temple, he put the futon he had brought in his place and began today's practice.

"That's what I smelled. For a while. The Buddha is in the country of Shawei ······"

With the Bodhisattva's Diamond Sutra in front of him and a futon rewarded by the system under him, Pure Karma began to recite the verses of the Diamond Sutra.

With the chanting of pure karma, the entire Daxiong Treasure Hall and even the entire Qingshan Temple were filled with bursts of strange fragrance, which entered the nostrils of everyone present. A faint brilliance emerged from the back of the pure karma's head.

Everyone present, including Ah Lian and Lao Hei, who were hiding outside for fear of scaring a few visitors, all showed a stunned expression, only Miao Xing, the newly recruited apprentice of Pure Industry, still maintained his composure at this time, as if he had expected it.

Especially the empty monk and the two little apprentices, the boss with his eyes open, can stuff an egg in his mouth.
