Chapter 166: Clever Anti-Self-Error (3)
The monks also chanted along with Elder Huaqing's words.
Afterwards, Elder Huaqing pointed to the verse on the wall and said, "Listen, from today onwards, everyone should keep this verse in mind and recite it from time to time. As long as you practice according to this verse, you will definitely reap great benefits. ”
Hui Ming asked, "Elder, who wrote this verse?" It has such a great function! ”
Elder Huaqing said, "Who wrote it, I naturally know. The disciples can also understand who has such a state of cultivation from the artistic conception of the verses. Alright, now you go and prepare the incense case, and let's salute this poem. ”
The monks gathered more and more. Hui Ming and Fa Ru brought the incense case and placed it in the middle of the south corridor.
Elder Huaqing lit a stick of incense and took the lead in bowing down to the poem on the wall.
When the monks saw that the elders were so respectful and pious, why didn't they worship them? Everyone knelt respectfully.
As a result, the Sanskrit chant was chanted as beautiful as the sound of heaven......
After the worship, more than a dozen middle-aged Zen monks, including Hui Ming and Ying Yin, walked to Faru's room together.
On the way, Ying Yin suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Huiming, is that verse really written by the second senior brother?" ”
Hui Ming said: "Of course! Let me ask, apart from the second senior brother, who of the monks in the whole temple can have such a high realm? ”
Ying Yin seemed to be unwilling, took a breath of cool air and said, "Senior Brother Huiming, your academic achievements are not bad, why don't you also make a poem?" If I had what you could do, I would ......."
Hui Ming stopped and said to him solemnly: "Yingyin, you are probably receiving people who burn incense and make offerings every day, and you are infected by worldly fame and fortune. Buddhism is a pure place, and the first thing that should be seen through is fame and fortune! ”
The shadow closed and took half a step back.
Hui Ming said as he walked: "Besides, don't compare Buddhism with poems written by people in the world, you can't just take it literally. What is expressed in the verses is the realm of the cultivator, the stage of clear insight. In the future, you should practice hard according to the second senior brother's example. ”
Hui Ming said with infinite reverence: "Even the elder and his old man worship the second senior brother of the Faru, which shows that he has truly comprehended the general idea of the Buddha's wisdom, and it is indeed a true insight. Hui Ming jumped up happily: "Wow, this means that the second senior brother is about to become a grandmaster!" ”
Ying Yin glared at Hui Ming, and whispered unwillingly: "The elder did not express his position on the spot, which shows that there are still variables in the matter......
The people did not hear him, so no one paid attention to him.
A Zen monk said: "The elder is talking about letting Cheng Cheng, I don't know why the second senior brother of Faru wrote it on the wall?" ”
Ying Yin "Heng" sighed and said, "This is public, forcing the elder to take a stand." ”
Hui Ming shouted and said, "Yingyin, you fart!" You're a dog looking down on people! With the heart of a villain, spend the belly of a gentleman. ”
Shadow Yin wanted to say more, at this time, they had arrived in front of Faru's monk's room.
Hui Ming reached out and knocked on the door.
Faru opened the door and welcomed the monks into the room.
Hui Ming said, "Congratulations to the second senior brother. The second senior brother has become a grandmaster, so he wants to save me first! ”
Fa Ru helped Hui Ming up, and said excitedly: "Senior brothers, the Buddha is supreme, the sea of wisdom is boundless, let's study together!" ”
Just as they were complimenting each other and enjoying themselves, they saw Xiao Shami push the door and run in, shouting as he ran: "Second senior brother, go quickly, the elder has sent a message and told you to go to the elder's room." ”
Fa Ru was stunned: "What is the matter with the elders looking for me?" ”
Hui Ming said: "At this time, what else can there be? Naturally, it's a great event! ”
God knows why, but Faru at this time was inexplicably worried in his heart. He was not a dumb person, but felt that Elder Huaqing was so quick to express his stance on this side today, and his actions were too grand, which was contrary to common sense. There seemed to be layers of fog in front of him.
Fa Ru walked with an uneasy expression, and the heart seemed to have fifteen buckets falling up and down, and when it passed through the south corridor, cold sweat poured down from the corner of his forehead to his eyelids, and then to his chin.
He came to Elder Huaqing's room and vigorously wiped the sweat from his cheeks with the sleeves of his robe.
As soon as he pushed open the door of Elder Huaqing's room, the already trembling feet could no longer support it, and he fell forward, he lay on the ground and said, "The elder is polite." ”
It was late at night, and it was quiet.
Elder Huaqing sat on the futon, and had already heard the extremely slight footsteps stopping abruptly in front of his room, and now he saw Faru's face flushed when he came into the room, and the sleeves of his robe were wet again. ”
If it was usual, Fa Ru would definitely stand up immediately, and talk eloquently with his eyebrows fluttering, but this time, he knew that the stakes were very high, and his feet were still weak, so he was still prostrate on the ground, and the excitement in his heart made his body tremble slightly: "The disciple should kneel on the ground when he listens to the teacher's teachings. ”
Elder Huaqing didn't say anything right away, just looked at this disciple who was lying on the ground, at this moment, he really couldn't bear it!
Elder Huaqing knew that Fa Ru had misunderstood what he meant, and thought that he had invited him to come alone tonight to give him the mantle.
To tell the truth, Elder Huaqing is well aware of Faru's incomparable belief and reverence for the grandmaster, and has devoted his whole life to meditation and meditation, studying and practicing hard, and on weekdays, he has great respect for the elders.
Personally, Elder Hua Qing was extremely reluctant to expose this mystery, which would hurt his self-esteem.
However, Elder Huaqing understands more that it is necessary to have a unique vision, select talents, and Shaolong's ancestral industry, which is related to the great cause of Zen Hui, and is not something that can be replaced by personal feelings.
Elder Huaqing whispered, "You better get up and talk." ”
Faru supported the ground with both hands, stood up tremblingly, and stood with his hands down.
Elder Huaqing motioned for Fa Ru to sit down on his left, and asked slowly, "Fa Ru, did you write that verse on the wall of the south corridor?"
"This ...... This ......" Fa Ru replied humbly: "The disciple is stupid, the reason why the disciple is doing this is not to dare to seek the position of the grandmaster in vain, but just to get the guidance of the elders, to see if the disciple has some wisdom and understands the general meaning of the Buddha's wisdom...... Ask the elders to add a dot. ”
Elder Huaqing stroked his white hair with his hand: "Your language is flying, and the metaphor is appropriate." If you go to the capital to take the exam, you will definitely be able to press thousands of people, and enter the top three with your head held high, even if you are interviewing in the Jinluan Hall against the saint, it is also flawless. ”
When Fa Ru heard Elder Huaqing's praise, the big stone hanging high in his heart suddenly put it down, and replaced it with a burst of surprise: "Thank you for the praise of the elder." ”
Elder Hua Qing continued, "The connotation of this verse is quite profound, a drop of water can see the sun, and this verse reflects that your comprehension of Zen wisdom has reached a very high level. ”
