Chapter 16: The Two Saints Meet Each Other (Part 2)
Izumi Sakurai's eyes were blazing, staring closely at Lu Xihua's eyes, she knew that eyes were the windows to the soul, something she had determined in her years as a host. If a person lies, unless he has undergone special training, the dilation and contraction of the pupils in the eyes, and the transformation of the position of the iris can reveal a lot of information.
Because when ordinary people lie, their eyes involuntarily roll, which is the act of thinking about how to answer. Since the question cannot be answered immediately, it takes the brain to weave a lie that can cope with the current situation in a very short time.
The eyeball is a sensitive display of this biological function, which can show the activity of the person's brain without reservation.
But when Sakurai Izumi first looked at Lu Xihua's eyes so closely, it seemed that he had seen the universe in an instant, and countless glowing planets converged into a galaxy, which slowly flowed, undulated, and finally turned into a sea of stars, and in the sea of stars, there was an indescribable black shadow sitting in the middle of the sea of stars, standing still.
The stars turned into points of light like moths and flocked to the figure in the center. But the figure was like a black hole, absorbing these infinite brilliance, and an overwhelming sense of oppression suddenly surged into Sakurai Izumi's mind, and almost immediately he was about to kneel down, prostrate on the ground, begging the figure to forgive him for the direct gaze he had just seen.
Izumi Sakurai took a step back meaningfully, but unfortunately his legs were weak and he couldn't move. The lower half of the body did not move, but the upper body leaned back first, seeing that his back was about to hit the wall hard, but he was pulled by Lu Xihua, and then he stopped his backward body, "Look at it, I don't sleep at night, I am shaking when I walk, and I have to go out with my friends to meet friends." ”
Sakurai Izumi was stabilized by Lu Xihua, and immediately returned to his whole body, flicked his arm, put aside Lu Xihua's support, and his face was slightly red, "I'm in good spirits, I often stay up late when I do shows, I'm used to it, but I have some low blood sugar." ”
At this moment, Sakurai Izumi looked at Lu Xihua's eyes again, and found that they were black and round, like fruit longan, and there was nothing special about anything else, no longer the miracle just now. Could it be that I was really dazzled just now?
"Can you go, if you can't cross the bridge for a while, I see that you are still quibbling~" In order to hide his embarrassment, Sakurai Izumi walked in front of him to lead the way, as if Lu Xihua would sneak away by himself, and then he could laugh as much as he wanted.
Lu Xihua shook his head and followed in a few steps.
To the east of Renkejoin Temple is the Tokugawa family spirit platform, and in the past there is a T-shaped intersection that runs smoothly from north to south, and to the south is the main temple of Kongobu-ji Temple, the most glorious temple in Koyasan.
Standing outside the temple walls of the street, you can see the vermilion multi-treasure square pagoda in the distance.
"This is the Great Pagoda, a national treasure of Japan, and you can't see such a beautiful ancient building in China. I've seen some of the photos taken of your 10 years, where the heads of many Buddha statues have been knocked off by ignorant people, and some have been sold all over the world by people with good intentions. I think even the Buddha will cry for your behavior~" Sakurai Izumi lost face just now, and suddenly thought of using the ten-year pain of Huaxia to satirize Lu Xihua.
"The Buddha statue is not erected by the Buddha himself, it is carved by believers and some people with a heart according to their own imagination, what is about the Buddha and the Bodhisattva, the prototype of the Buddha may be a lump of dog shit on the side of the road, what is so strange. Does shit cry too?hahahaha~" Lu Xihua couldn't help laughing when he heard it.
When Sakurai Izumi heard this, he was shocked, "You dare to be unreasonable to the Buddha?"
Lu Xihua said with a smile, "I don't have a Buddha here, I don't have a Dharma, and Bodhidharma is an old man." The Bodhisattvas of the Ten Lands are dung-bearers, and the other Miao Erjue is an ordinary man who breaks the vows. Bodhi Nirvana is tied to a donkey wedge, and the Twelve Divisions are a ghost book, a sore paper, and Manjushri is just a Tian Kunu. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Xihua only felt that the sky was high and the clouds were wide, and he suddenly opened up. I still took the ancient power too seriously before, and I was afraid of being implicated, so I made a wedding dress for others, and my mind was somewhat blinded, but now I was unexpectedly excited by Sakurai Izumi, but I got up with fighting spirit.
Lu Xihua did not stop at his feet, "This is the original words of Chinese Zen Buddhism." The Buddha is none other than yourself. There are thousands of ways to get it, but don't be confused and foolish. From the inside out, every Buddha kills the Buddha, every Bodhisattva kills the Bodhisattva, every Arhat kills the Arhat, and then you can be liberated. ”
Sakurai Izumi didn't understand the meaning of these words, because Lu Xihua spoke Huaxia, but when he saw Lu Xihua suddenly acting crazy, he looked up to the sky and smiled, and hurriedly begged him for a translation. After hearing Lu Xihua explain it again in Japanese, he couldn't help but gasp.
"This is too bold, are the ancient masters of China so wild? Zen Buddhism is really different from Tantra. ”
"Zen Buddhism cultivates emptiness, one hundred, creating something out of nothing, this is the true one, while Tantra seeks tantra, which is the infinite amplification of desires, observing one's desires with an objective attitude, limiting and removing the negative and retaining the positive, so as to effectively cultivate one's desires, and then realize one's oneness. These are the two extremes of the pursuit of thought, and they are just the same end. In my opinion, you Japanese people just believe in authority too much, and the more you believe in Buddhism, the more you will suffer from gains and losses, and the more you will not be able to face yourself squarely and see your nature clearly. On the contrary, he distorted himself, degraded himself, despised himself, and became farther and farther away from the Buddha. Lu Xihua said a few words casually, and Sakurai Izumi woke up at once.
Izumi Sakurai looked at Lu Xihua with complicated eyes, "I think about it, many of your views are very similar to Nobunaga's. He changed the values of the Japanese, advocated pragmatism, and spoke with strength. That's why the Japanese have always admired the powerful. Before the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese admired the powerful Chinese people. Before the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese worshipped powerful Europeans. After World War II, the Japanese admired the powerful Americans again. The current situation is that the more the Americans bully the Japanese, the more the Japanese admire the Americans. What do you admire about them? This era is an era in which strengthism is making great strides. ”
"Only those with big fists can speak. Lu Xihua finally concluded.
"Lu Jun, I think, no matter what you do in the future, you will definitely be extraordinary. ”
Lu Xihua and Sakurai Izumi strolled through the streets late at night, the side streets were deserted, and the monks and soldiers who had been patrolling back and forth in the afternoon seemed to disappear all at once.
"Speaking of Kongobuji Temple, there is also our largest dry landscape in Japan ~ Panryu-en. This is also a practice from your Chinese Zen Buddhism, which abandons the lively pond garden of the past and uses some static and unchanging elements such as evergreen trees, moss, sand, gravel, etc., to create a dry landscape garden, with almost no flowering plants in the garden, in order to achieve the purpose of self-cultivation. Sakurai Izumi carefully introduced the landscape to Lu Xihua, and at this moment she no longer regarded Lu Xihua as a gentleman in the family of high-ranking officials in China.
"The dry landscape replaces water with sand and replaces mountains with stones, which ostensibly shows the Buddhist concept of one sand and one world, but in fact, it is a practice method for Zen disciples to practice the White Bone View. After hearing about the dry landscape, Lu Xihua smiled slightly and talked eloquently.
Izumi Sakurai thought it was funny, this young man who had always appeared with a cold and arrogant face, seemed to have changed his appearance tonight, he answered questions casually, and said more than when he got along with him this day, he clearly didn't know what had changed, but he could see that he was in a good mood, "Can you tell me the truth about this?"
