Chapter 1047: Opening the Altar and Giving Meditation (4)
The people on the scene were a little uneasy!
I didn't expect that Zen Dao was so magical, and the people of Jishidu could still make great progress in their cultivation and increase their Dao power, which was very different from the creed that the entire Xuanling Continent World had always believed in respecting the strong.
People are skeptical in their hearts, but listening to Master Zhida's own narration, there is a good chance that this matter is true.
As a result, most people turned to think that this matter should be an individual case, because what Lichen resolved was the cause and effect caused by his own several reincarnations, and once this cause and effect was solved, it would be of great benefit to both the bamboo spirit and the dust himself.
Master Zhida does not continue to argue, with his wisdom, he naturally knows that even if it is the same thing, different people will have different opinions, the so-called flowers into their own eyes, turnips and greens, each has its own love.
He opened the altar to preach Zen, not to persuade others to practice Zen Dao, but to let more people understand some of the principles in Zen Dao.
Spring breeze and rain, moisturizing things silently, this kind of preaching is the most in line with the way of heaven, if you use your own Venerable cultivation and Haotian Tao to force others to become meditators, this is definitely unwise.
The more direct benefit is to add some good men and women to Zen Taoist resorts such as Chuanyun Temple, Tengyun Temple, and Miaoyin Temple, and the incense will be more prosperous in the future.
Master Zhida has a wealth of experience, and it is simply a story bank in itself, after the story of Shizhu Temple, he continued to tell other stories, one after another, so that the people on the scene listened to it extremely fascinating, and their mood fluctuated with these storylines...
Li Yun was also paying attention to Zhida's Zen preaching on Ling Xianfeng, and he found it extremely interesting to listen to stories, not only to learn more about what is happening in all walks of life, but also to experience the true meaning of Zen Taoism.
Since he became interested in Zen Taoism, he has put Chuanyun Temple, Tengyun Temple, Miaoyin Temple... He read and studied all the classics of the Zen Taoist resort, and studied countless classics collected by many small slaves from the spiritual world, and the most important thing is to carefully study all the classics and related cases of the Zen Tao in the former universe.
It can be said that now his experience of the Zen path has reached a very high level, so the Zen stories he told to Master Zhida can point out which faction he belongs to and which branch of the sect, some stories seem to belong to Haotian Zen Dao, but they are more in line with other branches of Mahayana Zen Dao.
After hearing this, Li Yun found that the Zen Tao taught by Master Zhida did not go beyond the scope of his understanding, and there were even many aspects that were not covered at all.
If you let yourself talk about Zen, you can talk more broadly and more Zen than him, because I not only have a good study of Mahayana Zen, but also Hinayana Zen, Mahayana Zen, Samsara Zen, cause and effect Zen, good and evil Zen, gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder and ice, Vajra Zen, Prajna Zen, Zhuyin Zen, Flying Flower Zen, Stone Walking Zen... All dabbled!
"It seems that my research in Zen is really not in vain..."Li Yun said with a smile.
"My lord, your knowledge and understanding of Zen Tao is wider and deeper, and your Dao power is only stronger than Zhida's, if Zhida comes to listen to you talk about Zen now, you will definitely benefit a lot!" Xiaoxing said with a smile.
"Even so, now I have benefited a lot from listening to him talk about Zen, after all, his attainments in Haotian Zen are quite profound, and moreover, more exchanges with each other can enhance each other's understanding of Zen Dao, which is beneficial to both parties!
"According to the information provided by Xiao Hou earlier, this incident happened in the One Hundred and Three Realms of Transformation, which is not too far from the One Hundred and Eight Realms where we are now. ”
"One hundred and three realms, I remember there's a clone there, right?"
"Yes. ”
"Why don't you let him go to Shizhu Temple to take a look and see how the situation is with Dust and Shizhu. ”
"No problem!" replied Xiaoxing.
Quickly sent a message to Li Yun's clone in the One Hundred and Three Realms.
Paying attention to Master Zhida's meditation, Li Yun found that his divine sense sensing ability was extremely strong, which was different from his own fine control of spirit worms, but was biased towards telepathy.
Being able to cover so many people in the audience shows that Zen people have unique abilities in telepathy.
This kind of telepathy is different from the telepathy of the master-slave relationship, because Zhida and the people on the scene are not master-slave relationships, but he can also sense what the listeners are thinking, which sounds quite amazing.
However, in Li Yun's view, this is related to Zhida's profound Zen Taoism on the one hand, and of course to his intensive study of Zen Taoist classics and Zhida's rich experience in Zen teaching.
A Zen story may cause many different opinions, but there must be mainstream and non-mainstream views, and most people's opinions and reactions are actually skillfully pulled by Zhida, through some Zen words, tone, tone, tone and frustration... and other skills, you can lead the nose of the vast majority of people.
In Zhida's experience, the main reactions and questions that may arise in the process of listening to the story are almost all within his control, and as long as he communicates with these people well, a considerable part of the task has been completed.
It can be seen that although telepathy is magical, it can actually be predicted in advance, and the test is more about your knowledge, reaction, reasoning and deduction.
Zen Tao is magical, but its essence is still not much different from other paths, and it is related to the degree of brain development.
"My lord, Zhida is talking here with relish, and he is amazing, maybe after this altar is opened, the incense in the temples of the Great Zhou Zen Dao will be very prosperous, it is better to make a stumbling block for him, so as not to be too affected by the Great Zhou Xiuzhen Realm!" Xiao Xing teased.
"This... It makes sense, the story he told now can be used to ask questions..."Li Yun's eyes lit up.
Of course, he wouldn't come forward to ask the question himself, so he asked it through Xiong Bing.
At this time, Zhida was sitting on the white lotus platform, pinching the orchid finger with one hand and turning the Zen bead with the other, with a charitable smile on his face, his lips moving slightly, telling a story.
Nalanda Realm Chuanyun Temple is a Mahayana Zen Taoist resort, many good men and women will come here to worship and incense, and thousands of years ago, there was a Zen Taoist event, which attracted countless people to come here for pilgrimage.
It turned out that the abbot of Chuanyun Temple at that time, Du Xin, decided to retire and impact the immortal tribulation.
When Watari retired, it was natural to have a new person to serve as the new abbot, which was a major event in Zen Taoism, and a grand ceremony was required to select it.
After deliberation, it was decided to select the best from among the next generation of disciples.
For Zen Taoism, the best person is not the highest cultivator, but the best Zen nature, the so-called best Zen nature, in addition to the Zen Taoist classics, they also need to have a very high understanding and wisdom roots, in the future it is possible to guide the practice of the monks, so that the temple of the Tao is deeper, higher status.
The disciples under the Duzi generation are the Zhizi generation, and among the disciples of this generation, there are more than a dozen disciples who are extremely excellent, and even a figure like Master Zhida cannot be compared with them.
After several rounds of careful selection, four disciples were finally selected, namely Zhihui, Zhiming, Zhiqing, and Zhifeng.
These four people not only cultivate similarly, but their spirituality is also amazing, no matter which one is chosen, it is acceptable to Chuanyun Temple, and no matter which one is abandoned, it will make people feel extremely pity.
When the people at the scene heard this, they couldn't help but feel extremely shocked by the strength of the Chuanyun Temple!
It is unimaginable that there are so many outstanding disciples in a single generation, and all of them are even better than Master Zhida.
However, this aroused people's interest even more, which one should be chosen in the Chuanyun Temple?
How to select the best from the best is definitely a big problem.
The reactions of the audience naturally fell into the induction of Master Zhida, who smiled and continued to speak.
In fact, there is a precedent for this kind of thing in the history of Chuanyun Temple, and this time is no exception, Chuanyun Temple held a "Zen Conference", not only to let the monks of the whole temple participate, but also to let many good men and women come to the temple to observe the ceremony, so that the process of the new abbot is absolutely open, fair and just.
When the news came out, the entire Nalanda world was in a sensation, and many people from other walks of life flocked to it, and the scene was many times bigger than here!
This makes people feel very excited to think about it, from a certain point of view, life forms tend to huddle together for warmth, the bigger the scene, the greater the attraction, the easier it is to resonate, some people originally did not want to be to the scene, as soon as they heard that so many people came from so far away, then they couldn't help themselves if they didn't go to see it.
The Q Zen Conference was held as scheduled, and the scene was crowded with people of all kinds of life forms, and everyone was concerned about how the new abbot came into being.
Under the "Ask Zen Tower" of Chuanyun Temple, Zhihui, Zhiming, Zhiqing, and Zhifeng are wearing big red robes, facing the Zen Tower, and sitting on the futon.
Everyone paid attention to these four people, and saw that although they had different appearances, they all looked indifferent, confident and peaceful, their eyes were slightly closed, and they were communicating with the Zen Pagoda with their hearts while turning the Zen beads lightly.
It is said that this tower is made up of countless Zen Tao principles, if you can understand one or several of them, you will become a Zen master!
It is absolutely the most fair and just for the Zen Pagoda to ask questions and finally decide who will be the abbot, and no matter who wins or loses, they will be happy and convinced, and there will be no objections.
Everyone was nervously watching the communication between the four of them and the Ask Meditation Pagoda, and after a while, the efforts of the four people finally paid off, and the Ask Meditation Pagoda asked his own simple question, which was "What do you think is the most important thing you have done in your meditation practice in the past 1,000 years?"
As soon as this question came out, countless answers emerged in everyone's minds, and the most mainstream answer was, of course, the most influential and contributing thing he had done.
