Chapter 82: Jizo, Maitreya, King Ming
Some people died, and that was really dead.
For example, the heart-to-heart monk who "snatched away" Lotsnow, said that if he turned into ashes, he turned into ashes.
There is no trace left in this world, only some influence.
Some are dead, and he is still alive.
For example, Link, he only used the hand of the monk to clear the monk and the power of Buddhism to end the vitality of the body of the monk, and cut off the connection between Link's true nature and the body of the monk.
In fact, he didn't just die and leave this world.
Some popular explanations are that Link made a cut between his sorcerer "heart" and the bodhisattva "power" of Buddhism.
He would rather maintain the sorcerer "heart" that may not have yet broken through to the sixth-level sage, rather than rapidly swell to the bodhisattva "power" of the Buddha (the ninth-level great sage) of the Buddhist system.
Because one is the inner and the other is the external force.
One was repaired by himself, hmm...... Perhaps there is a lot of help from the will of the wizarding world, with the impetus of the "predetermined fate".
One is to make a great wish, gathering the wishes of all beings in this world, and "picking up".
Link, or Link, who is dressed in the skin of a monk, seems to be the owner of this bodhisattva "power", but in fact he is not even a custodian.
It can only be regarded as a stealer!
Because Link's core is not the remnants of the Buddhist civilization "native", but an outsider, an intruder!
It's the enemy!
The remnants of the Buddhist civilization of Alaya can provide the external force of the Buddha (the ninth-level great sage) to the Lina, and naturally it can also be withdrawn, or the support can be removed, so that this external force can become a rootless ping.
Therefore, Link has never attached importance to the cultivation of the Buddhist warrior monk system that has expanded rapidly after making the great vow.
I don't even use it at all.
In addition to this, Link did this for another very important reason.
The great vow made as a monk of the White Horse Monastery is "a poor monk who vows to save all sentient beings who are suffering from sin and suffering to Bodhi and become enlightened."
The question is, where are the sentient beings who suffer the most?
In the remnants of Buddhist civilization, of course, it is the beings in hell who suffer the most.
Because if you do evil deeds and disobey the Buddhas, you will go to hell.
And there are many cruel punishments in hell that are used to punish those who have gone to hell.
Link doesn't want to go to hell, he just wants to identify this world and even the twelve habitable worlds that are remnants of Buddhist civilization as hell on earth.
And the concept of "hell on earth" is preached and recognized by everyone.
Even if it can't be recognized by everyone, at least it must be convinced by the majority of the low-level people who have been oppressed and exploited by Buddhism, and let people and forces who are dissatisfied with Buddhism feel that it is profitable to do so.
This is not a simple matter, it requires efforts from all sides, and it also requires a very powerful and huge impact from the beginning.
As far as the current situation is concerned, what could be more shocking and influential than the monk of the White Horse Monastery who set off a frenzy of "speculation" and "Buddhahood" within Buddhism, voluntarily and without resistance died at the hands of the monk Nengqing of the Ci'en Temple, who denounced him as an "evil demon" and "Buddha's sin"?
No!
Even the Temple of Mercy and Grace was raided, the Daxiong Hall was lost, and the Buddha statue of the central Shakyamuni Buddha was almost polluted, which could not be compared.
Jasmine, who ran hundreds of miles, quickly contacted the forces she had secretly accumulated according to Link's will, and spread the big news that the monk of the White Horse Monastery had died at the hands of the monk Nengqing in the Temple of Mercy and Grace in various ways.
"Link, does this really work?"
After doing this, Jasmine asked uncertainly.
Existing in the form of a special spirit now, Link who was following Jasmine replied lightly, "Who knows? It's best to be useful, and if you don't, you can do something else. Big deal......"
"What's the big deal?"
Jasmine was intrigued and asked curiously.
"It's a big deal, Nirvana is reborn."
Link raised an eyebrow, his tone slightly playful.
Anyway, many Buddhist scriptures have records of nirvana rebirth and reincarnation, and this kind of thing is not uncommon.
If the monk can touch it, the wizard can't touch it?
It doesn't make sense!
Jasmine instantly understood what Link meant, and then found a remote corner, watching the wind and clouds surge, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback.
The world is in complete turmoil.
Several major powers are burning beacons everywhere, there are true leaders who have risen up everywhere, and there are also some forces that are trying to fish in troubled waters.
War, fighting, bloodshed, sacrifice, excitement, anger, resentment......
It happens all the time, and everyone has it.
The secular situation has become a mess.
Reflecting on the Buddha gate, it is a greatly short offering, which can be called a waist cut.
After all, Buddhist monks are high in the world, do not produce anything, and rely on secular offerings to be rich and practiced.
As the saying goes, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
Buddhist monks do not mean that they cannot live without the offerings of the people at the bottom of the world.
After all, the means of production belong to Buddhist temples, and there is no shortage of productive forces.
Instead, it is detached from the worldly low-level people to provide for them, so that the food and clothing of Buddhist monks have become scarce.
But ah, how can the Buddha who is high up in the sky pull up his trouser legs, go down to the field to be accompanied by dirt and dung, and dig food from the ground?
Even those new forces within Buddhism who are "speculating" and aspiring to "become Buddhas" do not have many monks who are willing to do so.
The separation between thought and action is once again embodied and further amplified.
The monks who followed the monks of the White Horse Monastery for a while did not do so.
They "think" and "discern" on the one hand, cultivate their strength and mind at the same time, learn the Dharma from the two aspects of knowledge and action, and practice the Dharma.
Practice by learning, learn by doing.
With such optimization and iteration, it gradually became different from the old forces within Buddhism and the new forces within Buddhism.
The same is true of this part of the monks and some of the monks who are influenced and driven by this part of the monks.
This difference between them is reflected in their own hearts and in the eyes of others, that is, they are really approaching the true "Buddha" in both the mind and the force, that is, enlightenment, enlightenment, supreme enlightenment.
The Bodhisattva takes the Dharma and is the road to prosperity!
This consensus gradually formed in the hearts of these monks and those who saw them converted.
The monks of the White Horse Monastery who revisited the three vehicles of the Shravakayana, the Yuanjue and the Bodhisattva Vehicle, and made a great vow to practice the Bodhisattva Vehicle, were regarded by these monks as seers.
The status is catching up with the three rounds of the big day above the head.
But different people have different perspectives.
Some people see the monk as the incarnation or reincarnation of the "King of the Earth Bodhisattva", while others see the monk as the emanation or reincarnation of the "Maitreya Bodhisattva" who has not yet become a Buddha.
Yes, the trend of "speculation" and "Buddhahood" within Buddhism triggered by the Three Vehicles Buddhism has made many of the information in the pile of old papers re-exposed to the world.
The saying of the three horizontal Buddhas and the vertical three Buddhas suddenly became widely known.
The so-called Heng III Buddha is the great day with three wheels standing side by side on the head, the Medicine Buddha of the East, the Buddha of Shakyamuni in the center, and the Buddha Amitabha in the West.
The so-called three Buddhas are the Buddhas of the past who burned the lamp, the Shakyamuni Buddha of the present world, and the Maitreya Buddha of the future.
The "Jizo King Bodhisattva" has great power and lofty status, and when a monk makes a vow, he also makes a Jizo root seal, and the vow is almost exactly the same as the Jizo Great Vow.
As a result, many monks regard the seer monk as the incarnation or reincarnation of the Jizo King Bodhisattva.
Some of the more radical monks associated the enlightened monk with the Buddha of the future life, Maitreya Buddha.
It is believed that the root seal of the earth and the great wish of the earth are only the only way to go before Maitreya is born.
This statement has a hidden mystery.
That is, the present life is already facing the risk of disintegration, and the Shakyamuni Buddha in the present life cannot continue to protect the remnants of Buddhist civilization for eternity!
In the face of the second "smash the ceiling" concept, or the first "only open the window" concept, it is easier for Buddhist monks to accept.
As a result, the White Horse Monastery said that the monk was very likely to be the incarnation or reincarnation of the "King of the Earth Bodhisattva", and it spread among some monks within the Buddhist sect.
It was in this situation that the Song State Bianjing Ci'en Temple denounced the monk as a "demonic way" and a "Buddha" monk of Nengqing, and the news of the killing of the monk spread all over the world.
The monk did not resist, did not hide, calmly went to his death, and before he died, he preached "I will not go to hell, who will go to hell", and the news spread together.
The interior of Buddhism, which has been torn apart by the frenzy of "speculation" and "Buddhahood", has become further turbulent because of this incident.
Some, like the Nengqing monks, rebuked all monks for being "evil demons" and "Buddhas", and advocated praising the Nengqing monks, because the Nengqing monks cleared the evil obstacles within the Buddhism.
Some monks who believe in the Bodhisattva's Dharma and regard all monks as the incarnation or reincarnation of the Jizo King Bodhisattva, advocate that the monk be imprisoned, punished, and then either in a group or alone, to fulfill the great vows made by the incarnation or reincarnation of the Jizo King Bodhisattva:
Endure all sins and sufferings.
Some are more radical, seeing monks as the incarnation or reincarnation of the future Buddha Maitreya, and advocate killing the Neng Qing monk, and then reforming the interior of Buddhism to welcome the birth of Maitreya!
This change made Jasmine very surprised.
Perhaps it is not in this mountain, Jasmine knows the true face, the Buddhism of this world, from the inside to the outside, from the outside to the world, not only violently turbulent, but also the trend of fragmentation is faintly out of control and irreversible.
In other words, Link's actions have succeeded in shaking the foundation of Buddhism in this world.
"Link, do you have any other plans?"
However, seeing this, Jasmine didn't have much joy in her heart.
In her opinion, simply shaking the foundation of Buddhism in this world would not allow Link to complete his mission.
After this "catastrophe", the strength and heritage of Buddhism in this world will definitely be greatly reduced, and it will even take a long, long time to recover.
It is never an exaggeration to say that it hurts the vitality.
However, this is only one of the twelve habitable worlds left in the Buddhist civilization, and there is no possibility of completely destroying the existence of Buddhism!
As a wife and a pillow person, Jasmine certainly hopes that Link can walk steadily and far after embarking on the road of "predetermined destiny" head-on.
Until the end, reach freedom!
Therefore, Jasmine, who is a little greedy and lacking, hopes that Link can have a further plan to complete this mission better.
Link in his special spirit form smiled slightly: "Yes, it's just not time yet. ”
As soon as he said this, Link's expression suddenly froze.
"What's wrong?"
Jasmine was keenly aware of the change and asked aloud.
"An accident happened."
Link replied.
"What accident? A good thing or a bad thing? ”
Jasmine asked with concern, a faint worry between her eyebrows.
A relaxed expression appeared on Link's face, and he said in a relieved tone: "There's no need to worry so much, it's not a bad thing, it's a good thing, and it's ......"
"And what?"
"And it can make my original next plan better, faster, and more stable."
"Is that so? So let's go now? ”
"Hmm."
Reaching a consensus, Jasmine left the hiding place with Link in a special spirit state and walked towards the White Horse Monastery.
White Horse Temple, Zhike Temple.
Monk Yuanzhi and Monk Chenchen sat face to face.
The former sits auspiciously, and the latter sits on demons, with different sitting postures and different moods.
After a long time, Monk Lichen finished his meditation, opened his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Master, I have realized. ”
Monk Yuanzhi slowly opened his eyelids and asked, "What have you realized?" ”
"I realized what I had to do next."
The expression on Monk Lichen's face was very solemn, and the tone of his speech was even more solemn.
"What to do?"
Monk Yuanzhi was equally solemn and asked solemnly.
"Go down."
Monk Lichen spit out two words in a firm tone.
"What are you going to do down the mountain?"
Monk Yuanzhi instantly understood the meaning, but still asked.
Monk Lichen stood up, folded his hands, saluted Monk Yuanzhi respectfully, and said word by word: "Go down the mountain, do the way, temper yourself, transform sentient beings, and end this pickled and troubled world." ”
Monk Yuanzhi had a faint complex emotion on his face, took a light breath, and sighed: "In this case, you can go." ”
"Master, take care."
The dust monk saluted again, turned to leave, and his steps were extremely firm.
This trip down the mountain is because I don't want to continue to worship the Buddha, but to cultivate the Buddha.
With the current complex situation, the road ahead is bound to be bumpy, full of mud and calamities, and it is very likely that it will never be returned.
If you don't pay it back, you won't pay it back.
The Buddha is in the heart, the Buddha is at the feet, and the Buddha is in all beings.
The Buddha is in this life and in the next.
Monk Yuanzhi looked at the back of Monk Chen, and sighed slightly in his heart: "Fate! ”
The so-called dust is just red dust, and there is no need for an afterlife.
From beginning to end, Monk Yuanzhi did not really believe that Monk Fan was the reincarnation of the Master of Immortality.
Regarding the saying that "Maitreya was born and King Ming was born", Monk Yuanzhi did not deceive Monk Chen, but he did not break it down and talk about it in detail.
Who is Maitreya and who is King Ming.
"Alas!"
Monk Yuanzhi sighed and sighed again, "Fate! ”
When the words fell, the figure of the Yuanzhi monk gradually blurred and blurred, and after a while, it turned into a lotus phantom that went from real to virtual.
The entire White Horse Monastery also lost the blessing of some great power in an instant, and it "aged" rapidly, and there was no trace of people, becoming a ruin.
Only the white lotus in the back mountain is in full bloom and swaying. (End of chapter)
