Chapter 870: What Buddha Do You Believe in If You Don't Cultivate Good Fruits?
Go to Naxitian to see?
It stands to reason that it should be in the upper realm, which is the territory of Buddhism, also known as the Buddha realm, and the territory of Taishang Laojun has its own set of management systems. But the place where Tang Xuanzang was going to learn the scriptures was not the western sky of the upper realm, but a fictitious place temporarily set up in the lower realm, or a small projection.
What's so interesting about this?
There are also some things to look at. For example, you can see the Dharma body of the Buddha on the great day of the Western Heavens, the Dharma body of a bodhisattva, and the many Buddhas and Arhats under the throne. The most important thing is to get a glimpse of what those so-called "scriptures" are.
Sun Wukong was stunned, and couldn't help but pass the voice: "What are you doing here? Now it's clear that the big guy in the upper realm is wrestling his wrists, and it seems that he can't break it anymore, is it appropriate for you to get involved like this? And there are a lot of powerful people in the West Heaven, don't hurt me." ”
Xue Wusuan glanced at Sun Wukong, who was a little anxious, and did not speak, but pulled the big ears of Zhu Gangguan, who was shrinking in the corner and bowing his head to load stones, and said, "You go and get some game and come back, I want to drink some wine and get some wine after a toss in the night." ”
"Ahh I wanted to leave for a long time, but now that I finally have the opportunity, what do I care? Don't you just hunt game? In this barren ravine, there are few fruits to eat, but there is a lot of game to eat.
Xue Wusuan's craftsmanship is absolutely undoubted, and there is no problem at all to say that he is a top chef. So when Zhu Gang came back with the two little beasts and handed them over to Xue Wusuan to take care of, a simple barbecue could arouse the most primitive appetite.
Monks don't eat meat, even fake monks like Zhu Gangguan and Sun Wukong are not allowed by Tang Xuanzang, saying that eating meat is equivalent to killing, which is contrary to the precepts of Buddhism and must not be committed. But where can I say that this desire in my heart is not gone? Seeing Xue Wushu tearing off the barbecue while drinking and eating comfortably, the saliva fell so much that it was almost as if it was connected. Especially the pig gangguana, that guy, the flow is loud, it's a hoop.
"Don't you eat it?" Xue Wushu pointed to another roasted little beast and asked the three brothers, Pig Gang, Sha Wujing, and Sun Wukong.
"That, this, senior, we are monks, no, we can't eat meat, you, you eat it yourself, let's just take a look. "It's Zhu Gangguan who speaks, this thing has the ability, it's not easy to keep such a big saliva and still have time to speak.
As for Sha Wujing and Sun Wukong, they had already closed their eyes and didn't dare to look at them, worried that they couldn't help but pounce on them, afraid that they would even be able to gnaw on the wooden stick wearing meat.
Xue Wushu shook his head, and directly stuffed a large piece of meat into Zhu Gangguan's hand, and the fragrance was even more unbearable when it was close, especially when he saw that his saliva was dripping onto the meat. Pig Gangguana's eyes are red.
"It is said that even if you die, you will become a monster or a pig after death, which shows that your heart is not pure before or after death. You are greedy for food, lust, sleep, life and death. This seems to me nothing, and what is the point of being so demanding?
Eat, you don't have a Buddha in your heart, is it interesting to have a Buddha word on your mouth? Just follow your heart, things in the outside world are mostly interference, why not get rid of it?"
There is no Buddha in my heart, and there is a Buddha word on my mouth, is it meaningful?
This sentence was said to Zhu Gangguan, but also to Sun Wukong and Sha Wujing, and even to Tang Xuanzang, who was meditating on the side.
"How can the good words of Buddhism be summed up word by word? The precepts are constraints, and only with restraint can the evil thoughts in the heart settle down, and the good thoughts flourish, and then they can be resolved by the Dharma, and finally they can be at ease. ”
Tang Xuanzang is also a person who has good kung fu, after the previous violent ups and downs of his mind, after settling down, he naturally carefully continued to maintain those thoughts in his heart that seemed to be still insisting, and at the same time suppressed the anger that had just emerged. At least he felt like he was holding it down.
Now that he heard that Xue Wushu was bewitching his apprentices to eat meat and break their vows, and he also said some words that undermined the self-discipline that had rarely formed in the hearts of several of his apprentices, how could he bear this? Naturally, he had to talk to Xue Wushu to understand it.
"Great freedom? Hehe, you've been restrained from the beginning, or have you, the monk, already felt that kind of freedom?"
Tang Xuanzang shook his head and said: "Great freedom is a kind of spiritual liberation, ethereal and immeasurable, the poor monk is still practicing, and he doesn't know how far away from the lofty realm of great freedom." ”
"Since you yourself have never felt the great freedom you are talking about, how do you restrain others, or do you feel that they are all vicious by nature and need your rescue?"
"The world is good, but the world is full of filth and needs to be purified and restrained, and this is the usefulness of the Dharma, and this is the purpose of our journey westward. ”
"Ask for the true scriptures to purify sentient beings? Hehe, the idea is very good, maybe Pudu can get yourself? Or can you get the obsession in your heart?"
After this sentence, Tang Xuanzang abruptly stopped talking, and he didn't know where to go with the compassionate appearance just now.
These words once again shook the thoughts in Tang Xuanzang's heart.
If you have an obsession, you will no longer be spotless, at least this monk has made it difficult to break his obsession. I always think about a question in my heart, just like Xue Wusuan asked him just now: How can you help others if you can't even get rid of your own obsessions?
Tang Xuanzang was silent, Xue Wuxuan turned his head, looked at the three senior brothers of Zhu Gangguan with a smile and said: "Eat, if you don't cultivate good fruits in your life, why bother to restrain yourself to seek Buddha?
The sound was like a psychedelic and a sharp blade, piercing into the heart of the pig Gangguan, his eyes were red, and a wave of anger came out, he nodded heavily, opened his mouth and was about to eat the barbecue meat in his hand, and it seemed to eat with a kind of pleasure like suddenly unshackling.
Immediately afterwards, Sha Wujing also ate it in a big gulp.
Only Sun Wukong on the side glanced at the smiling Xue Wushu inexplicably, and finally tore a piece of barbecue meat and threw it in his mouth. Anyway, he had already gotten on the ship of "Xue Gongzi", so it was natural for him to follow a path in such a situation.
Seeing that the westbound group was complicated, Xue Wusuan was very satisfied, leaned back, seemed to be supported by an invisible force, and drank leisurely, but his eyes looked at the night sky above his head, and seemed to feel that the two pairs of ill-intentioned eyes in the night sky were looking at him at this time......
