Three days later.

Midday.

"Putuo Mountain is ahead!"

You climb high and look into the distance, and at a glance you can see the small island-shaped mountains on the other side of the bay.

Here, it is the first stop he has set after leaving Hangzhou, as a resort that also belongs to Zhejiang, he naturally wants to come to enjoy it!

"This is there?"

Hearing his voice, Hong Bin and the four of them also jumped up, climbed high and looked into the distance, and then saw the sea not far away, as well as the island on that side.

"It's ...... What a wish! ”

In the eyes of Xia Mingyu, who practiced the method of "witch suffocation", there was even more Buddha light shining on that mountain island, which was the incense wish power condensed by countless incense people, which surprised him very much.

"Why, haven't you seen it anywhere else? Isn't that the case with other Taoist temples? You Fang couldn't help but smile when he heard this, he also saw it.

"No, it's different!"

Xia Mingyu shook his head.

"None of the dojos and temples I have seen can condense such a strong will, even if it is Longhu Mountain, it is completely incomparable!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, You Fang raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but recall the information about Putuo Mountain, and then suddenly realized!

"Hehe, I seem to understand why, because ...... This is the legendary Avalokiteshvara's dojo! ”

Putuo Mountain, the full name of Putuo Luojia Mountain, is located in the southern edge of Hangzhou Bay Estuary in ZJ Province, the eastern sea area of Zhoushan Islands, is one of the four famous mountains of Chinese Buddhism, the famous Guanyin Dojo, known as the "Sea and Sky Buddha Country", "South China Sea Holy Land" said.

And what kind of existence does this "Guanyin" have?

In the eyes of all beings, he is a bodhisattva of great compassion and compassion.

It can be seen that for the general public who are not Buddhists, Guanyin's status is even better than that of the Buddha, and they often chant "Bodhisattva Blessing" is "Guanyin Bodhisattva", rather than chanting Buddha.

Because of this, it is understandable that the incense on Putuo Mountain is so strong, which is not known after many years of accumulation to be achieved, but there is nothing to say.

And at this time......

"I said Lao Xia, then I want to ask, since the aspiration power accumulated by this Guanyin Bodhisattva is so strong, no one in your village will perform it?" Hong Bin couldn't help but speak, and Tang Yingjie and Fu Chen also turned their heads curiously.

"Harm, I can't act!" Hearing this question, Xia Mingyu immediately shook his head, revealing a helpless expression.

"You must know that compared to the attitude of the Taoist sect towards the immortals, the Buddhism's belief in the Buddha and the Bodhisattva Arhat is real, if you dare to act and let them know, it is equivalent to insulting other people's beliefs, and it will even attract endless hunting!"

"Oh? Buddhism is still engaged in chasing and killing? You have a story! As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately smelled the smell of "melon".

"Well, it is true that there is a predecessor who played the role of 'Jigong' in the past, and you also know that Jigong is the reincarnation of the dragon Arhat in the legend, and there are indeed people in history, which caused the wrath of Buddhism and was chased and killed by a group of warrior monks led by Lingyin Temple, and the reason is 'King Kong angry eyes, subduing demons and subduing demons'." Xia Mingyu recalled.

Hearing this, even You Fang couldn't help but sigh, this faith is indeed a double-edged sword, which can make people firm and belong, but it will also turn into madness at some point.

This point, especially Buddhism, just like Xia Mingyu just said, unlike Taoism, these bald heads are true believers!

As for Daomen......

Thinking of this, You Fang couldn't help but glance at Fu Chen, looking at his clear eyes, he knew that he was not "polluted" by "faith".

In fact, the idea of Taoism was originally developed by the Taoists in the Spring and Autumn Period, and when the "dethroned the hundred schools", in order not to be implicated, they chose to escape from the world, and escaped the catastrophe under the guise of immortal magic and escapism.

This was the case in You Fang's previous life, but it was an ordinary world, and with the passage of time, a "specific belief" was eventually formed, and even the Qing monks believed in it so deeply.

But the world under this person is different, because of the existence of aliens, the original intention of the establishment of the Daomen was to "seek immortals and ask for immortality", how can they believe in those ethereal things?

At this time......

"Lingyin Temple? Isn't that the temple in Hangzhou? Old Tour ...... You seem to have visited before, right? Hong Bin suddenly remembered.

"Well, that's it, but when I went to visit, Master Jiekong and his eldest disciples weren't there, and the rest of the disciples couldn't be any real masters, so they didn't gain much." You Fang nodded.

Indeed, in the previous month, he still took the time to go to the Lingyin Temple, the purpose of which was to visit the master of the void.

As one of the ten masters and Xiao Zizai's master, Master Jiekong is still quite interested in him, so he wants to communicate with him, maybe he can have some new insights.

Speaking of which, You Fang still knows a lot about the past of Master Jiekong and Xiao Zizai, and in order to save his own disciple who is easy to kill, Master Jiekong is even willing to be abolished at the cost of cultivation.

It is precisely because of this that You Fang admires him even more, putting aside the issue of Buddhism's beliefs, only talking about the mental realm of Master Jiekong, the entire alien world, I am afraid that few people can compare with it!

"Really...... I want to see it. As soon as he thought of this, You Fang suddenly yearned for it, but soon shook his head again, and didn't think about anything more.

He knows that everything in this world needs a "fate", and if fate has not arrived, don't force it, and when fate comes, everything will be logical.

"So, let's go, since we have reached our destination, let's eat lunch directly on Putuo Mountain, there must be a canteen open to tourists." You Fang smiled slightly.

"Okay, then go and taste it, the comparison between the rice in Putuo Mountain and the Qingyang Palace, which one is more bland!" Hong Bin grinned, patted Fu Chen's shoulder, and joked.

So......

Whew!

The five of them exerted force at the same time, jumped down from the top of the tree, and then mobilized the Qi in their bodies to increase their speed.

It took almost only a few minutes for the five of them to rush out of the mountain forest, their faces blowing through the salty sea breeze, looking at the blue sea in front of them, and they only felt refreshed!

Subsequently, after flying in no man's land for a while, the five of them came to the Zhujiajian Centipede Pier located by the sea, bought five tickets, and then sat on the boat.

Speaking of which, the five of them are all children of inland growth, except for the traveler of Youfang, the rest of them really rarely see the sea, so they can't help but look through the window and look curiously.

Soon......

With the sound of an engine, the ferry started and slowly drove out of the harbor.

Looking at the undulating waves around and feeling the unique incense atmosphere around Putuo Mountain, several people were touched and experienced carefully.

"Lao You, how is it, do you have any insights?" After a while, Hong Bin, who was already accustomed to You Fang's comprehension every three or five times, couldn't help but look at You Fang and asked curiously.

"Hehe, how can it be so fast, what do you take me for? Enlightenment machine? You Fang laughed.

Although he did have some feelings in this place where the power of desire is so strong and the smell of incense is so strong, so far, this perception is too vague.

However, there is still a feeling in his heart that as long as he can climb this Putuo Mountain and feel the true atmosphere of this Buddhist holy land, he will have one more picture!

In this way, everyone felt and chatted, and a quarter of an hour passed quickly, and they finally came to Putuo Mountain......

And the moment they landed on the island, they all clearly felt that a unique smell of Buddhism came to their faces, and the port was surrounded by incense vendors and all kinds of Kaiguang ornaments.

"Buy incense? If you want to burn incense, buy it from me, the mountain is precious! ”

"Buddha beads! Take a look at the Buddha beads, the Buddha beads that the abbot of Puji Zen Temple has opened with his own hands, and they are only sold for ninety-ninety-eight! ”

Listening to the shouts of the surrounding vendors, and looking at the tourists or pilgrims passing by to shop, the five of them looked at each other, and smiles appeared on their faces.

Sure enough, whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, it has now been invaded by tourism, but this is understandable, after all, practitioners are ...... It's also about eating.

"Let's go, let's go up!"

Before coming to the way up the mountain, You Fang looked up, then waved his hand, and then took the lead to go up.

Through the "Bai Ze Meditation Technique", he could feel that there were dozens of places on the mountain where the power of the will was condensed, and among them, the largest and most condensed, there were four places.

As for the place where these wishes are gathered, it is very simple, it is the temple on the mountain, or the place related to Avalokiteshvara.

According to the data, there are more than 40 temples open in the whole mountain, the largest is Puji Temple, Fayu Temple and Huiji Temple, and the three are called "Putuo Three Temples".

At the same time, the "Putuo Three Temples" is also a well-known Buddhist force in the Chinese alien world, and its many disciples and its power are enough to compare with the "Songshan Shaolin Temple".

Of course, the two belong to the two major sects of Buddhism, the "Pure Land Sect" and the "Zen Sect", and their concepts are not the same, and each is a representative of its own lineage, and it is basically impossible to distinguish between strength and weakness.

As for the Lingyin Temple, where Master Jiekong served as the abbot, it also belonged to "Zen Buddhism", and because of this, he was a monk from Shaolin Temple to serve as the abbot in the Lingyin Temple.

As far as the tour party is concerned, since he can't visit the Lingyin Temple, then he will first visit the three temples of Putuo, and feel the mystery of the "Pure Land Sect" first.

But......

"Among them, the place where the three huge wishes are condensed should be the 'Putuo Three Temples', but there is another comparable ...... Where did it come from? You Fang's eyes narrowed, and he was puzzled.

After thinking of an answer, he simply judged the location according to the direction where the wish power was located, combined with the map he had found in advance, and after some comparison, he finally confirmed......

"It's the Purple Bamboo Forest!"

"I see!"

As we all know, in the legend, this Putuo Mountain is the dojo of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the purple bamboo forest is the real place of Guanyin Bodhisattva's practice.

Therefore, from the perspective of wishing power, no matter where the wishing power belonging to Avalokiteshvara comes from, a part of it will eventually be separated into the purple bamboo forest, and this question will be solved.

"It seems that in addition to the three temples of Putuo, it is also necessary to go to the purple bamboo forest, and I can't say that I can get some inspiration there, which is also helpful for the completion of the understanding!" You Fang secretly decided.

After walking for a while, the five people finally came to the "Puji Temple" in the "Putuo Three Temples", which is also known as the "front temple", the main temple dedicated to Guanyin, and the "front door" of the "Putuo Three Temples" of the alien forces.

"Lao You, there are tourists everywhere here, shall we go directly inside?" Entering the temple and seeing the tourists taking pictures and checking in, burning incense and worshiping the Buddha, Hong Bin couldn't help but scratch his head.

This Putuo Mountain is different from Qingyang Palace and Longhu Mountain, the whole mountain island is almost a tourist area, and it is crowded with people everywhere, not to mention that it is a competition, even if you want to find a clean place to sit and chat, it is difficult to find.

"No, it's too rude to trespass, we're here to visit, we have to be upright." You Fang shook his head.

Then, as soon as he looked around, his eyes lit up, and as he moved, he walked towards a monk not far away.

He knows very well that to this day, it is difficult to distinguish between the true and false monks in this temple, but it is always correct to judge by one point, that is, "the strength and weakness of Qi".

The real people of the "Three Temples of Putuo" must be Buddhist practitioners, so as long as they find the same kind of monks among them, everything is easy to say.

"This master, please stay!"

Coming to this monk, You Fang first bowed, then smiled slightly and explained his intention.

"I am a member of the Lu family in Hangzhou, I am traveling with my friends, and I want to visit Guibaosha, but I don't know where this huge Putuo Mountain is now?"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, the monk raised an eyebrow, and then he stopped and looked carefully.

And after confirming that You Fang and Hong Bin and the others who followed him were all strangers, he made a Buddhist ritual and pulled them into the backyard, as for their identities, he didn't care.

"Amitabha, since several donors are here to visit, the temple should welcome it, but unfortunately, most of the brothers in the temple today, including the abbot master, have to listen to the lectures, and the lectures will start soon, if they want to talk to the abbot master, I am afraid they will have to wait until tomorrow." The monk explained softly.

"Tomorrow?"

You Fang was stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself Is it so unfortunate? Although he didn't have to wait, after all, he still had a big tail behind him, so he still had to maintain the rhythm of his travel and ensure the smooth progress of the plan.

So......

"That's great, I've heard that Buddhism has always been tolerant of sentient beings and accepts good believers, so I wonder if we can participate in this lecture? We are also willing to listen to the Buddha's voice! "You are happy, and then salute.

His idea is very simple, since the monks of the "Three Temples of Putuo" will gather at the lecture meeting, then he can participate in it and listen to the lecture, so he can naturally communicate with them and absorb the wisdom of Buddhism, which is also worth the trip.

"This ...... Seriously? Hearing that these outsiders also wanted to listen to the Buddha's voice, the monk was obviously a little surprised, because before that, there had never been an outsider in the temple's lecture meeting.

But it can be seen that he is not actually repulsed, but a little surprised, after all, what this Buddhist lecture talks about is not a secret, its focus is to spread wisdom, explain the Buddhist principles, and it is a good thing to have outsiders participate.

"Naturally, it's serious!"

You Fang looked serious and nodded in confirmation, and at the same time took out something from the "cave sky" and handed it to the monk.

"Moreover, this master, since we have come to visit, we are naturally knowledgeable and reasonable, this is a special salute brought by me, and I hope to transfer it to the abbot master to show the sincerity of our face Buddha!"

"It's ...... Yes! ”

Seeing that he was still ready to send something, the monk subconsciously wanted to refuse, but when he saw what this thing was, he couldn't say the slightest words of refusal.

Just because, this is a statue of Guanyin, lifelike, with the meaning of compassion, and its whole body is made of gold, the size of the palm, in the sunlight seems to exude golden light Buddha rhyme.

This Buddha statue was commissioned by the old man Lu during this period of time, of course, the money is still spent on his own money, he is not so big face, he can let the old man contract everything.

At the same time, sending Buddha statues to Buddhism itself also contains the meaning of worship and respect, which are written in the old man's notes, so that Buddhism will not only not refuse, but also greet with courtesy.

Sure enough, for a moment......

The monk put away his surprise, a smile on his face again, and at the same time recited a Buddha name: "Amitabha! ”

"Since several donors are so sincere, the little monk naturally has no reason to refuse, please wait a while, I will go and inform the abbot, presumably the abbot master will also be happy."

After speaking, he led everyone into a guest room at the back of the temple, which is the residence of the monks of the temple and the place where "idlers are not allowed to enter", so naturally there will be no tourists to disturb them.

About ten minutes later, an old monk in a robe walked in, followed by the monk just now, and the five of them immediately saluted.

"Hello Master!"

"Amitabha, a few donors are good, Lao Wei is the abbot of this 'Puji Temple', the Dharma name is 'Miaojing', I heard that several donors came from afar and wanted to listen to the Buddha's voice, so I made a special trip to lead." The old abbot smiled and explained.

"I can't hide it, there is indeed no rule that outsiders can't participate in my Buddhist lectures, after all, my Buddha is compassionate and willing to cross sentient beings out of the sea of suffering, and if several donors can gain wisdom through the lectures, the Buddha will also be happy."

Speaking of which, it is really a coincidence that several of you came this time, and today's lecture is the last one during this time, and the person who preached the scriptures ...... It is the master of Lingyin Temple. ”

"I think a few people must have heard of the name of Master Jiekong, he is the most profound predecessor of my Buddhism today, so this lecture is quite rare even for me" Putuo Three Temples "!"

"Oh?"

"Master of Voiding!"

After listening to the old abbot's words, Hong Bin and the four of them suddenly glared, and then looked at You Fang with surprise on their faces.

And You Fang was also stunned when he heard this, and then a smile appeared on his face, it seemed that his fate had arrived, and the master of the Void Liberation was actually here!

However, after thinking about it, several people felt that this matter was very easy to understand, after all, the Lingyin Temple and the three Putuo Temples are in Zhejiang, adjacent to each other, and both are Buddhism, and it is normal for them to have many contacts with each other.

In addition, everyone in the world knows that Master Jiekong has been completely abandoned because of some accidents in the past, and he is old and usually does not go far away, so it is not surprising that he will appear in this "Putuo Three Temples".

"This is good, but it directly saves you the trouble of going to Lingyin Temple in the future, and you can understand the wonderful meaning of 'Zen Buddhism' and 'Pure Land Sect' here at the same time!" You Fang thought to himself, the corners of his mouth curled.

And then, Hong Bin on the side raised doubts: "Master Miaojing, then I want to ask, as far as I know, Master Jiekong belongs to 'Zen Buddhism', and the three temples of Putuo belong to the 'Pure Land Sect', and these different sects can also preach to each other?" ”

"Hehe......"

Hearing this, Master Miao Jing couldn't help but smile, and then responded: "This kind of question is indeed generated by many people outside the Buddhist sect, and it is actually very simple......

"Although my Buddhism is divided into eight major sects, which seem to be distinct from each other, in fact, the eight sects are one, but each sect has different research directions and Buddhist scriptures."

"You must know that each of the Buddhist classics has great meaning, and each one is also worthy of our lifelong study, and if one life is not enough, there will be the next life, life after life, which is also in line with the 'cycle of cause and effect' and 'the principle of reincarnation'."

"But it is precisely because of this that the disciples of Buddhism of each lineage will be somewhat lacking in the understanding of other scriptures, which requires each lineage to communicate and explain to each other in order to achieve the goal of 'attaining bliss together'."

"I see......"

After Master Miaojing's explanation, everyone also understood the truth and couldn't help nodding their heads.

And at this time......

Gollum~

A belly scream suddenly rang out.

This made Master Miao Jing and the monks behind him stunned, and then asked, "How many donors, could it be...... Haven't had lunch yet? ”

"Uh......"

"Hey, hey, hey......"

For a while, several people looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, after coming to this holy place of Buddhism, they really forgot about eating.

So......

"Hehe, it's okay to do something, there is still an hour before the lecture begins, so how about a few of you go with me to have some fasting first, and then go with me to the place where the lecture is done after eating?"

Since Master Miaojing said so, everyone naturally had no opinions, so they nodded one after another: "Then listen to the master's arrangement!" ”

It's just that just as they were about to leave with the master, Master Miaojing suddenly stopped them:

"A few donors and so on!"

"Although a few guests came from afar to be my 'Putuo Three Temples', this is an important place for Buddhism after all, please change into appropriate clothing and pay attention to the system."

"Huh?"

When several people heard this, they were a little confused, and they couldn't help but look at their clothes, but they didn't find any problems, and they felt that they were quite decent.

Seeing this, Master Miaojing had no choice but to cough lightly, raised his finger and pointed: "I mean...... It's the benefactor. ”

"Huh?"

"Oh——!"

Several people followed the master's fingers and looked at Xia Mingyu, only then did they glare, and suddenly realized, that his body was indeed not suitable.

And Xia Mingyu looked at everyone's eyes, and couldn't help but look innocent, and then stretched out his index finger and pointed at himself:

"Why, isn't this an island? I cos Nami in a bikini...... Any questions? ”

……

……

Half an hour later.

Xia Mingyu also changed into Shanzhi's clothes under the compulsion of everyone, which was considered to be in line with the system, and everyone finished eating.

And I have to say that this Putuo Mountain is worthy of being a tourist attraction, the food on the mountain is unexpectedly delicious, obviously, in order to meet the taste of foreign tourists, the meals here are made a lot of adjustments.

After eating and drinking, Master Miao Jing also arrived as promised, and directly left the dining hall with a few people, and went into the mountains and forests through the unknown path next to the temple.

Immediately afterwards, everyone walked all the way to Meitanling in the southeast of the mountain island, and when they saw the large piece of purple bamboo under the ridge, the five people of You Fang immediately understood.

"It turns out that the place where this lecture is given is in the purple bamboo forest, but it is also quite meaningful......" You Fang couldn't help but think.

"However, it's also a place for tourists to check in, where do they preach?" He couldn't help but look around, and felt that there was no space for the monks on the mountain to gather.

However, before he could ask, Master Miaojing smiled slightly, pointed to a large piece of purple bamboo in front of him and said, "Amitabha, the front is here." ”

It's just that after looking in the direction of his finger, several people suddenly wondered, although there was no one in front of them, it didn't look like a place where they could preach the scriptures.

"No...... right"

But soon, You Fang's eyes froze, and he found that something was wrong, and when he got closer, with the help of the "Bai Ze Observation Technique", he finally saw the clue.

"Hehe, I see!" He grinned and found that there was a phantom array in front of him, although it seemed to be a bamboo forest, but in fact there was another world!

So, following Master Miaojing, several people entered the phantom array back and forth, and the heavens and the earth suddenly changed, and a huge platform appeared in the field of vision.

At this moment, this platform is already full of monks, all of whom are meditating or chanting Buddhist scriptures, as if they are relaxing but solemn before listening to the lectures.

"Go, I've already informed Senior Brother of your situation and they have reconciled with Master Kong, don't worry, just find a seat in the back place now, and the lecture will start soon." Master Miao Jing pointed to the open space behind the monks.

Then he said hello again, and then he said goodbye to everyone and walked to a vacant seat in the front row and sat down, and the rest of the people also crept behind the monks and sat up on the spot.

"I said Lao You, do we really want to listen to the whole lecture? Wouldn't it be boring......" After sitting down, Hong Bin suddenly became a little worried.

"Probably not, you must know that this is not an ordinary Buddha, but the real Buddha's merit and Buddha's principle, you listen to it for a while, it will definitely help your own perfection!" You Fang reminded softly.

The "consummation" he refers to naturally refers to Hong Bin's current state of "broken soul" and "forcible bonding", although he has made up for more than half of it by relying on the snake spirit under the Leifeng Tower, but it is still not consummated, and he has to take his time.

And the root cause is related to Hong Bin's lack of cultivation in the power of "sex", which is purely about the cultivation of the soul, and it is also the key to speeding up the healing of his injuries.

Followed by......

"Lao Hong, You Fang is right, you should really listen to it, I think this Buddhist principle is also of great benefit to you!" Fu Chen on the side also echoed.

"You must know that the essence of Buddhism's principles is in 'cause and effect' and 'reincarnation', and its scriptures are basically the polishing of the power of 'sex', which can make up for your current situation, and don't you think that the things between you and Fengyunxin are also like a kind of 'reincarnation of cause and effect'?"

"Hmmm......"

"That's right!"

Hearing them say this, and pondering carefully, Hong Bin suddenly nodded.

"Well, then I'll really have to listen to it, and if I can get something out of it, it's worth it!"

When Hong Bin's words fell, several people suddenly quieted down, learning from the appearance of these monks in front of them, calming down and entering a state of calm.

They all know that this is done in order to be able to adjust their consciousness and thinking to the most transparent and efficient state, so that they can get twice the result with half the effort when listening to the lectures!

That's it......

About ten minutes passed, and the scheduled time for the lecture was up, and a bell rang......

When ——!!!

All opened their eyes.

And immediately afterwards, a figure dressed in an orange and yellow monk's robe, with a rickety figure and an old face, slowly got up from the front row, walked to the front of everyone, and then performed a Buddhist teaching to everyone, and recited:

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south."

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south." The crowd agreed.

There is no doubt that this one is one of the ten men in the Chinese Inhuman World, a senior monk of Shaolin Temple, and the abbot of Lingyin Temple-Master Jiekong.

Next, it was up to him to give a lecture to the monks, and after he finished the prayer, he sat down directly on the futon that had been prepared.

Seeing the appearance of Master Jiankong, You Fang's eyes immediately froze, and he began to look at it, to be honest, he was still very much looking forward to this lecture.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the identity of this master of the Liberation of the Sky is already the top of the Inhuman World, and as a Buddhist monk who has practiced for many years, what he can say is by no means simple.

At the same time, the reason why You Fang is looking forward to it so much is because this is a lecture by a "Zen master" to the monks of the "Pure Land Sect", and the content of the lecture is naturally neither too profound nor too simple, and it should be just right for him.

And if he can listen to this lecture in its entirety, his visit to the "Three Temples of Putuo" will become extraordinarily meaningful, just like listening to the guidance of the old heavenly master, which makes him excited.

And in fact, for the Buddhist teachings, You Fang is not a complete layman, which is also a key to his choice to listen to this lecture!

As a member of the Trinity Sect and cultivating the "Triple Rebirth", he must be familiar with the basic principles of various exercises and techniques in the world, so he also has some knowledge of the classic content of the eight sects of Buddhism.

For example, he knew very well that the fundamental difference between "Zen Buddhism" and "Pure Land Buddhism" was that "Zen Buddhism" studied the "Diamond Sutra", and the "Pure Land Buddhism" was the "Amitabha Sutra", and the content of the two classics could be said to be very different.

The Diamond Sutra asserts that everything in the world is illusory and unreal, and that "the real one is non-existent", and that one should "be separated from all appearances" and "have no place to live", that is, there should be no attachment or attachment to the real world......

The four verses at the end of the volume: "All the Dharma is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such", which is known as the essence of the First Classic.

The Amitabha Sutra specifically expounds the wonderful scenery related to the "Western Elysium", arouses the yearning of believers, and makes all beings have faith and believe in the state of bliss.

Not only that, but the difference between the two can also be seen in the naming of their respective lineages:

The word "Zen" in "Zen Buddhism" is the abbreviation of "Zen Na", which means "meditation", that is, "thinking in silence", that is, focusing on the state of a Dharma to study "what is the original face", working hard between thoughts and thoughts, in order to realize the nature of the mind, this is called "Zen meditation", so it is called Zen Buddhism.

The "Pure Land Sect" is more direct, and it is a sect formed with the purpose of advocating the contemplation of Buddha and chanting Buddha in order to survive in the Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha in the West, so it is called "Pure Land Sect".

Let's take a look at the practice between the two:

The main way of practice of "Zen Buddhism" is "Zen Meditation", and there are many types of "Zen", such as Zen Meditation, Bodhisattva Zen, Meditation, Meditation and so on, but today's "Zen Buddhism" in order to cultivate for better diligence, most of the cultivation is directly to the mind, the epiphany of the "Patriarch Zen".

The "Pure Land Sect" is simple and easy to do, the three roots of the universal quilt, can absorb the masses, and even the practitioner does not necessarily have to access the Buddhist scriptures, extensive study and teaching, nor necessarily to meditate and practice, walking, living, sitting and lying can be called "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha", as long as the faith is sufficient, the heart is controlled, the Buddha is recited, and the Buddha is never lazy, and when he is dying, he can be reborn in the Pure Land...... And because the "Pure Land Sect" method is simple, it is the easiest to popularize, so cultivators of other sects also practice this method at the same time, and take the Pure Land as their home.

To sum up, the "Zen Buddhism" and the "Pure Land Buddhism" are very different from each other, and even if they do not recite "Amitabha", they can be regarded as two completely different schools.

But it is precisely because of this that how to integrate the completely different Buddhist scriptures and become their own practice has become a major topic for Buddhist disciples, which is also a point that You Fang is very interested in, and he wants to listen carefully.

"Ahem......"

At this time, Master Jiekong, who was sitting on the futon, coughed lightly twice, and finally spoke:

"Amitabha Buddha ......"

"All of you here are my Buddhist disciples, and I study and recite scriptures on weekdays, and I want to study the classic of my 'Zen Buddhism' - "The Sutra of Breaking the Vajra Prajnaparamita", which is also studied."

"Then, today I will talk about the four verses at the end of this volume-'Everything that has a way of doing things is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such.'"

"What do you think...... What should be interpreted? ”

"Uh......"

Hearing this, a kind of monk couldn't help but be stunned, for them, the meaning of the four verses could not be clearer.

But they all knew that since Master Jiekong was going to lecture on the scriptures, it would never be so simple, and they didn't dare to easily analyze the "deep meaning" he wanted to tell.

At this time, You Fang also thought about it, and he naturally knew the meaning of these four verses, literally, it should be:

Everything in the world is impermanence, emptiness and selflessness, like dreams, phantoms, bubbles, dew, lightning, and other ephemeral things, which cannot be relied on or relied upon, so we should look at everything in the world from this point of view.

Looking deeper, the ultimate meaning is to warn sentient beings not to be deceived by the appearance of things, which are all illusory......

The most important thing is to see through the surface of things and see the eternal and unchanging truth from the fleeting moment, so that we can gain our own understanding and make ourselves to the next level.

"Ahh

Thinking of this, You Fang suddenly raised his head and immediately understood-isn't this the root of "Guanshu"?!

Therefore, the essence of the expression of these four verses, and even the "meditation" of "Zen Buddhism", lies in "observation" and "comprehension", which seems to be ...... It has the same origin as the practice I have always had!

"No, it's not just my own cultivation, but it can be extended to all sects and all methods, which is also the origin of all spells!"

"Therefore, the ultimate focus of these four verses is actually the words 'Fa' and 'Guan', and their meanings can be extended to - 'All the magic in the world is false, and we should look at their true nature'!"

So......

What is this so-called "authenticity"?

In Youfang's understanding, that is the "way of heaven and earth"!

But......

What if the "way of heaven and earth" is also a "dream bubble"?

He couldn't help but frown.

But after a moment of contemplation, it then stretched, and instead of sinking into it, it cleared up its head.

So......

Slowly, You Fang raised his hand, wanting to say his answer.

"Amitabha, Lord You, please speak." Seeing him raise his hand, Master Jiekong also smiled slightly, and didn't care that he was not a disciple of Buddhism, but asked him to stand up.

As for the Master of Void Liberation, You Fang was not surprised that he knew his identity, and he even knew very well that he might have become a "celebrity" in the Inhuman World by now.

He didn't care about this, just followed the instructions of the master of the void, slowly stood up, and began to explain his analysis:

"Back to Master Jiekong, the younger generation thinks that the connotation of these four verses is actually the cultivation of the Great Dao."

"I don't think I need to elaborate on the part contained in it, which is related to 'contemplation' and 'comprehension', and one of the keys I think is 'dream bubble'!"

"In my opinion, the Dharma practiced by cultivators all over the world is false and all in vain, just because behind these techniques, there is a more fundamental, simpler, and more profound 'Tao (Tao and Reason)' ......"

"If a cultivator can see through this illusion and puncture this bubble, his own cultivation will be able to reach a higher level, which is the process of 'breaking through the bottleneck' on the path of cultivation, and it will also bring the cultivator closer to the 'Great Dao' and 'Truth'!"

"Then ......"

"The avenue is endless, the truth is endless, it is like layer after layer of bubbles, wrapping the cultivators of the world layer by layer, and it is impossible to see why the end is ......"

"Therefore, in my opinion, these four verses are also a reminder to cultivators that in addition to vanity, there is also vanity, and they should always be vigilant, and not be ...... for the 'unknown' that they have not yet seen."

"And confused, sinking!"
