Confessed, the monk himself admitted that the Buddha is not a god, but a mortal? So what is it for us to worship the golden Buddha statue in the temple all day long? It's not to worship God, but to worship what? Ghosts?

The believers who originally supported Daxingshan Temple also began to deny themselves, and everyone looked at the old abbot in a daze.

If the Buddha is a mortal, and then he dies and sits on the spot, the person dies as a ghost, and the descendants set up a monument and burns incense to worship the clay body, from the perspective of remembering the deceased, it is not bad to worship ghosts.

It's like burning paper and sending money to the ancestors on the Qingming Festival, but it's not just thinking about burning it to the ancestors, so that they don't lack money to spend underground. Therefore, there was a very interesting question from a soul later: If it is true to send money to the ancestors to burn paper, it is useful. So we can't make money now, is it because our descendants in our previous lives were unfilial and didn't burn it for us?

Back to business: When the audience stopped the commotion, the old abbot slowly told the history of Buddhism: "According to legend, the Buddha was the crown prince of a small country in the West, born in a noble family but tired of power struggles, devoted to practice, and later had an epiphany under the Bodhi tree, became a Buddha, and vowed to transform the world with compassion. He passed on the Dharma, founded Buddhism, and received countless disciples in his life. He died at the age of eighty. ”

"In order to commemorate the Buddha, the disciples built a temple for him, molded a golden body, spread Buddhism, and carried forward Buddhism."

"Buddhism was introduced to the Central Plains during the Yongping period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and two high-ranking monks in the West were invited by the imperial court to come to Luoyang with white horse scriptures and set up temples to spread Buddhism, which is now Luoyang White Horse Temple."

"In fact, the Buddha, like our predecessors in the Central Plains, Lao Tzu and Confucius, was an ordinary person, a wise man and a sage. The Dharma that has been handed down is also the orthodox method of cultivating and attaining the Tao, arhats, bodhisattvas, and Buddhas, these fruit positions are not gods, but the realm of cultivation. ”

"At first, everyone was just to commemorate and commemorate, but gradually, I don't know when, it was said that the Buddha is an omnipotent god, alas, ......"

A young man with strong blood rushed out angrily, grabbed the old abbot by the collar and asked, "Old bald donkey, according to what you say, the incense money we give you every year is not given to the Buddha. So what are you charging us so much money for? Isn't this a money scam? ”

Xiao Rui didn't recognize this, and it wasn't arranged by him in advance, because he rushed out of the Buddhist believers. Looking at this situation, it is probably because of the collapse of faith and the defection on the spot.

Du Ruhui smiled and said loudly: "The incense money for the Buddha? How many years has the Buddha passed away, did he use the incense money? All the money donated by everyone was spent by the living. This big temple, this splendid hall, this gilded bronze Buddha statue, and this monk in this courtyard are fed, clothed and housed......"

"Without your incense money, they don't produce, they never work, what do they eat and drink? I don't know if the money was given to the Buddha or not, but it must have gone into the stomachs of these people. ”

Wow......

As the prime minister, Du Ruhui spoke extremely powerfully, and now he has basically made a conclusion.

Everyone is not stupid, and praying to God and Buddha is more because of the fear of being punished, not idols. Now that the scam has been exposed, the Buddha can't bless the world, so what are we going to pay for? It's clearly cheated of money......

Day your mother, return the money!

With the completion of the self-disclosure of the abbot of Daxingshan Temple, today's matter is really coming to an end. The collapse of Buddhism's faith will not only cause great prosperity to the temple, but I am afraid that all temples in the world will suffer.

The people who came back to the taste remembered their true intentions today, Xiao Rui smiled and gave Chang'an County and Wannian County a look, and they could start the process.

The process? Is it a government process?

No, it's the process of demolishing the Buddhist temple a few days ago. Buddhism aroused the people's grievances, resulting in monks being beaten, Buddhist temples being demolished, and the government came forward to settle grievances, count the amount, and return the people's losses...... A mature process, more people are involved today, and many people are defective.

Xiao Rui slowly walked to his father Xiao Yu's side, and the father and son looked at each other, neither of them spoke, nor was they affected by the noise of the people around them.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Rui spoke: "Dad, the child is not filial, I apologize to you." ”

Xiao Yu glanced at him and reprimanded: "What do you have to say next time, see who beat your cousin?" What did the family do so ruthlessly? Go back to the ancestral hall and kneel down to apologize to your fourth uncle. ”

After speaking, he took his second son Xiao Yue and left. Along the way, Xiao Yue wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.

Seeing Xiao Rui's eyes turn to himself, Xiao Qi, who had a broken leg on the recliner, said a little timidly: "Brother Rui, don't, don't fight, my brother knows it's wrong, and he doesn't believe in Buddhism anymore, he really doesn't believe it......"

Xiao Rui smiled, squatted down and gently held the cousin's hand and said, "Father is right, cousin, I'm sorry, it's a bit heavy." I'll go to the ancestral hall to apologize when I go back in a while. ”

"Don't don't, it's my brother's confusion, otherwise I've been deceived by this group of bald donkeys, Brother Rui, Brother Rui, if you let me down, I really won't dare anymore......"

"Cousin, what are you shouting? I'll send you home. You're all like this, I can't beat you anymore, can I? We can be a family. ”

Burst...... Can I believe that? When you broke my leg, did you remember that you were a family?

When all the people rushed up and beat the monks, Li Er and Fang Xuanling, who were mixed in the crowd, quietly retreated, and Li Er said to Fang Xuanling: "Tell me to go down and put these monks in prison, and we must try out the specific evidence of the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

Fang Xuanling glanced back at the angry people worriedly, "I'm afraid that they won't help but fight, in case they are killed by the people......"

Li Er also glanced back and snorted coldly: "Today is the Great Xingshan Temple, and tomorrow the Great Chief Holding Temple will not be able to run." ”

Understood, the people of Daxingshan Temple are not saved, and the people of Dazong Temple also have the collusion to convey interests, and they are taken down by the people one step ahead, which is the same evidence.

"Huh? Is that Taishi Ling Fu Yi? He's here too? Why didn't he speak, as if he had been recording something. Li Er saw an old man in the corner.

Fang Xuanling thought for a while, and suddenly smiled, "Your Majesty, during the Wude period, Taishi Ling went to the book to destroy the Buddha, and he has been running for so many years, it seems that this time, I can finally promise him." ”

Li Er nodded, "Go back to the palace." ”

……

"Can you not beat him......" In the backyard of the temple, a thin little boy was protecting the old monk with long eyebrows. Dozens of people surrounded him.

Some people who knew him persuaded: "Little dog, get out of the way, all the monks in this temple should be beaten, they cheat us for eating and drinking all the year round, and use us as fools?" ”

"Yes, although I Datang governs the country with filial piety and advocates respect for the elderly. But the old monk is different, he is a liar, the older this kind of person is, the longer he has been cheating, so he can't be let go. ”

The little boy cried and begged: "Uncles and uncles, he is my mother's life-saving benefactor, my mother said that I want to repay my kindness, the dog kowtowed to you, will you let him go?" ”
