Chapter 62: The Manifestation of the Stone Buddha.

Shaanxi Stone Buddha apparition: rescue the fallen girl in times of crisis

Chongwen Tower is located in Chongwen Town, 10 kilometers southeast of Jingyang County, Xianyang, Shaanxi Province, every 15th day of the first month of the lunar calendar will open the tower meeting, then the crowd of people, performing acrobatics, circus, selling snacks and everything has been very lively.

In 2002, a naughty 8-year-old girl got out of the protective fence on the 12th floor of Chongwen Pagoda and accidentally fell from the tower, when more than 1,000 people were visiting the tower below.

At the same time as the child fell, a Buddha statue in the southwest direction of the second floor of the Chongwen Pagoda reached out to catch the little girl.

At that time, the people below were frightened, and they only saw the child crying in the arms of this Buddha statue. After the family took the child down, they found that the child was safe and sound, and not even a little skin was broken.

At that time, at least 100 people below said that they saw the Buddha statue and reached out to catch the child. But the Buddha statue was made of stone, and everyone was very puzzled at the time. After that, many old people burned incense to the Buddha.

In the future, every time the pagoda meets, the whole family of the child will take the little girl to burn incense and wear red (cloak red; that is, put a red silk cloth on the Buddha statue to show respect for the Buddha's faith)

Chongwen Pagoda has nearly 100 Buddha statues, but only the Buddha statue in the southwest of the second layer is draped in red.

In fact, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are everywhere, if you use what body to achieve the degree, that is, what body, the cause of the saved girl has arrived, so the Buddha body of the stone to save the girl, this girl will definitely learn Buddhism when she grows up.

I remember when I first learned Buddhism, I often dreamed of Guanyin Bodhisattva and Jizo King Bodhisattva in my dreams, and I was grateful to the Buddha Bodhisattva for giving me confidence.

I still remember when I was more depressed, I had bad and terrible dreams in my dreams, I was very scared, so I recited Amitabha Buddha in my dream, and I saw the Buddha's light shining on me, and the bad scene disappeared.

In the past, I was more superstitious, thinking that everything would only appear when it was enlightened, but now I understand that there is no way for all good and evil, only people call themselves, sow melons and get melons, sow beans and beans, sow good and get good, sow evil and get evil, sow what cause and what kind of effect, and my fortune is not what I want, but the cause of my own good and evil karma.

We see the image of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, raise the heart of compassion, correct the mistakes, and be determined by the precepts, at this time the nature of the pure nature will be revealed, the Buddha and Bodhisattva will open our sexual light, this is the real light, I hope you don't misunderstand the light, chanting against things, that is not the light, that is called superstition.

It is the heart that is a Buddha, and there is no Buddha outside the heart.

Amitabha Buddha is called the Buddha of Immeasurable Light, we call the name of Amitabha Buddha, when the pure thoughts are one after another, the light of our heart will appear in the Pure Land, and the immeasurable light of Amitabha Buddha will be opposed, and the immeasurable light of the pure nature will appear, which is the real enlightenment.

We sincerely chant the mantra and recite the Buddha, the heart will be pure, before the appearance of the self-nature of the Buddha, we are the Buddha, the Buddha of billions of Buddhas, the Buddha of the Buddha, so the recitation of a Buddha, that is, the recitation of all the Buddhas of the ten directions and the three worlds. Compassion of the same body.

I have a friend who went to a temple in Mt. Chickenfoot. Come back and tell me that the abbot told me a story. It is said that a little monk used to come to their temple, and he walked in the woods every day and chanted Buddha, very hard. After about half a year, due to his good kung fu, in the eyes of outsiders, the little monk's body glowed.

Later, the abbot was also alarmed. Once, he called the little monk and asked him, "Have you seen the Buddha?"

The little monk, after thinking about it, said seriously, yes.

This story tells us that self-nature is self-sufficient, everyone has full Buddha nature, full of Buddha's wisdom and virtue, pure heart, self-manifestation of Buddha nature, in the eyes of outsiders, digging you is so magical, you will shine, in fact, you will also shine, just because your heart is covered by greed and hatred, you can't see your own light. The Buddha is in your heart, why bother to seek the Dharma outside your heart.

It's not that there is a secret method called Tantra, but that the mantra of the Buddha and Bodhisattva is secret, and the mantra of the Buddha and Bodhisattva contains all the intentions of the Buddha and Bodhisattva, and this mantra is the secret, not that the Buddha and Bodhisattva still have a secret, but that this mantra has power, and we ordinary people don't understand it, so we mistakenly think that there is a secret, you must know that the secret is in your body, and everyone has a Muni orb, so why bother to verify it.

It's like the name of the Buddha, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, it is also a secret, although there are only six words, but this Buddha name is the Dharma Tibetan Bhikshu who made a vow to practice practice for the benefit of all our sentient beings, so after the Dharma Tibetan Bhikshu became a Buddha, this Buddha name has incredible merits, and this invisible is the so-called secret, and the secret is in your body, that is, the Buddha name itself, which comes from the name of Amitabha Buddha who made a wish to achieve it when he was in the ground, and this is the real secret.

Therefore, the Buddha often said that if people want to know, all the Buddhas in the three worlds should contemplate the Dharma realm and create all idealism.

I hope that everyone who reads my article will be able to form a relationship with the Buddha.
