Chapter 56: The Demon King's Trick

The demon king Bo Xun was thinking about how to let my son come back, how to keep my son away from the Buddha and Bodhisattva, and how to keep the world from believing in Buddhism.

In the discussion of the demons below, Zheng Hui, a female demon general, said: "King, if you want to destroy the Dharma, you can only destroy it from within, and I hope that the lower realm will spread magic to mislead the world about the Dharma, and you will not be able to learn the true Dharma."

At this time, the female demon general went down to the mortal world, turned into a middle-aged woman, and arrived at a village, there are many people in this village who study Buddhism, but they don't know much, although these people also have Buddha, but there is still greed in their hearts, just by chance I met a wandering monk, this monk is the Miao Xiang Master of the Great Compassion Ancient Temple, Miao Xiang Master knows that the people in this village are too greedy, and they want to do everything well, Miao Xiang Master can only skillfully and conveniently tell the people in the village what are the benefits of chanting Buddha.

Venerable Miao Xiang said to the people in the village, "Myoho-renge-kyo: If people scatter their minds, they will become Buddhas if they recite the Buddha in the south. Because reciting the Buddha is the cause and becoming a Buddha is the effect, when the mind is scattered and the Buddha is sown, the seeds of the Buddha are also planted, and when the causes and conditions converge, they will be saved.

Huayan Sutra: It is better to go to hell and suffer than to smell the names of the Buddhas, and in the past, I did not smell the names of the Buddhas and suffered immeasurably.

Jizo Sutra: Repeatedly, in the future life, if the heavens, if the people, retribution with karma, fall into the evil path, or to the head of the door, if you can recite a Buddha's name, a Bodhisattva's name, and even a Mahayana revelation scripture, my Jizo King Bodhisattva can show you a boundless body, crush its evil path suffering, and take you to heaven to enjoy the joy.

These people were very happy to hear that as long as they chanted the Buddha, they would not fall into the evil path, and that there would be people who would be blessed by heaven.

Venerable Miao Siang continued: Chanting the Buddha is not to read more and less, but sincerely, why do we often chant the Buddha, because our ordinary people's hearts are very scattered, every day is greed, hatred, delusional thoughts, because of this, we must honestly recite the Buddha to take the heart, to capture the delusions in the heart, every time we recite a sentence of Nan Wu Amitabha, there is one less bad thought, every time we recite a sentence of Nan Wu Amitabha, there is one less delusion, every time we recite a sentence of Nan Wu Amitabha, the heart will be pure, because of this, we must be more long-term edification of the Buddha, never forget, the mind is purified, and the mind returns to self-nature.

Chanting the Buddha means that the Buddha has returned, and you don't have to look for it outside, it's in your heart.

These people chanted the Buddha because of Venerable Miao Xiang.

Every time these people recite a word of Buddha, they are blessed by the Buddha's power, and some people often kill and eat meat, because they have been chanting Buddha for a long time, they have compassion, and they have eaten vegetarian food and recited Buddha.

And this time the female demon general came to sabotage their recitation of Buddha, the witch general found a village grandmother, the witch general, and observed this old grandmother with the magic eye, this old grandmother, there is Buddha light on her body, but there is also black gas, so she asked the grandmother if she usually cultivates any methods.

The old grandmother said: "There used to be a monk who came to our village to introduce the Buddha to be good, and to get the blessings of heaven, so our village all chanted the Buddha, although I recited the Buddha at the beginning, but also killed and ate meat, and after chanting the Buddha for a long time, I suddenly didn't want to kill, but I still occasionally ate meat."

The female demon general said, "Grandma, do your legs hurt occasionally, have you ever eaten snakes before?"

Granny: You're a god, yes, you've eaten it before.

The grandmother didn't know that it was because of her sincere merits in reciting the Buddha, invisibly resolving resentment, and many of the creatures who were killed by the grandmother before were saved because of the merits of the grandmother's sincere recitation of the Buddha, only the snake's resentment was heavy, and it couldn't be put down, but because the grandmother chanted the Buddha, the snake's resentment was resolved little by little, because it was not completely resolved, so it would be a little painful.

Female Demon General: "I have a way to keep your legs from hurting, as long as you are not chanting Buddha, I can make your legs not hurt."

Grandma: "Chanting Buddha has great benefits, you can get people's blessings, and people can't be blessed with leg pain."

Female Demon General: "I can make you a Buddha quickly, this Buddha is even better than the blessings of human heaven."

As soon as the old grandmother heard the benefits, she hurriedly asked what the method was.

Female Demon General: As long as you look into my eyes, my eyes can accept the light of the Buddha, so that you can quickly become a god and become a Buddha, you don't have to recite the Buddha in the future, you don't have to, it's very tiring and troublesome, as long as you look into my eyes, you can feel physically and mentally comfortable.

The magic of the female demon general drove away the snake on the grandmother's leg, and the grandmother felt that it was a god, and her leg would hurt just now that it wouldn't be now.

The snake is not the opponent of the devil, so he can only go, but he still has anger in his heart, and he must take revenge.

Demon King Bo Xun watched with the rest of the demons how Zheng Hui destroyed the Dharma.

The witch general healed the old grandmother's leg, and the old grandmother promoted this Zheng Hui everywhere, as long as you look at her eyes, you don't have to recite the Buddha, don't practice, don't be very tired and annoyed, you can become a god and become a Buddha.

Because of the female demon general Zheng Hui, this village does not recite the Buddha, but believes in evil opinions every day, looks at Zheng Hui's eyes, and blesses these people with magic power, these people can't be blessed by Buddha power because they don't chant Buddha, but are blessed by magic power, become more greedy, and create more karma.

And the female demon general also accepted a lot of believers, let them continue to spread evil opinions, and then return to his free heaven.

Other demons also proposed to the demon king Bo Xun that they were willing to destroy the Dharma, and a demon Marx said that I would go to the world to spread the theory of no cause and effect, and make people more crazy to create evil, and they would not be able to escape from our hands.

The demon king Bo Xun was suddenly happy, and thought of it, I want to go to the world to spread, Prince Siddhartha has become a Buddha, and his life is still short, and it is not as good as the life span of the heavens, what do you still believe in Buddha, the Lord Jesus is not omnipotent, your family is going to die, he can't save it, he can't give you money, everything you want is not given to you by God and Buddha, why do you still have to be bound by God and Buddha, and you have to practice good law and restrain yourself, only my demon king Bo Xun obeys all sentient beings, you should do whatever you want.

At this time, the Veda Bodhisattva and the Buddha of the Western Elysium said, "The disciple is willing to go to the world of sampa to dispel evil views and let people return to the Dharma."

The Lord Jesus was also puzzled by what the demon king Bo Shun said, Prince Hiddatta has become a Buddha, why is his life in the world short, not as good as that of heaven and man, and since everything he wants is not given by God and Buddha, how did it come from?

With these doubts in mind, the Lord Jesus went to the Western Elysium to find the Buddha.

If the Buddha knew the purpose of Jesus' coming, he told Jesus why he had attained nirvana and why he had come to earth.

I am in the Great Nirvana Sutra, telling you that my body is not born of men and women, my body is the Dharma body, in order to follow the world, and manifest into the womb, my body is the Dharma body and is not born from the mortal womb of the flesh, many people think that I am the first time to shave my head and become a monk, and all the heavenly demon kings have no way to touch the top of my head What's more, shave my head, the world thinks that I have birth, old age, sickness and death, think that I want to eat, drink, Lasa and sleep, at that time I just follow the world to appear, I will not be born, old, sick and die, I do not need to eat, drink, Lazar to sleep, the world thinks that the astrologer said, I can become a Buddha without being the king of the wheel, in fact, I have achieved the king of the wheel of immeasurable calamities, not the king of the wheel in this life, I have already given up the throne of the wheel with the immeasurable calamity, and achieved the Buddhahood, the world thinks that I became a Buddha for the first time, in fact, I have become a monk and become a Buddha in the immeasurable calamity, not in this life。 I have manifested countless Buddhahoods for the benefit of sentient beings.

If the Buddha does not manifest into the womb, then there is no such character in history, and it will become fictional, so the Buddha manifests Prince Siddhartha, we must clearly understand that Prince Siddhartha, who has become a Buddha for a long time, has become a Buddha in order to manifest sentient beings, and manifest countless times to become a Buddha, there have been many Buddhas in the past who are Shakyamuni Buddhas, but they have changed their names, and Amitabha Buddha is also Shakyamuni Buddha.

Diamond Sutra: All the Dharma is like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such. The law should be abandoned, not to mention the theory of illegality.

Great Nirvana Sutra: The Buddha is not like Nirvana, and the Dharma is also immortal, for the benefit of sentient beings, showing that the present is completely destroyed.

The Buddha is permanent and indestructible, in order to say the righteousness of immortality and immortality, dwelling in Nirvana, Nirvana is not the real annihilation, where there are sentient beings who need to be subdued, they will manifest it, if it is a very profound righteousness, it is called Nirvana.

The Vimala Sutra states that all sentient beings are sick, so they are sick. If all sentient beings are not sick, then I will be sick and perish. Therefore, for the sake of all sentient beings, the bodhisattva enters life and death, and if there is birth and death, there is illness. If sentient beings are free from illness, then the bodhisattva will not recover. Vimala said; Because all living beings are sick; So ah; When I come to the world, I will follow the laws of the world; I also got sick. If; None of the beings are sick; My illness is gone. Bodhisattvas are born and die for the sake of all sentient beings, and if there is life and death, there will be illness. If all sentient beings become Buddhas. I'm not going to be on earth anymore. I'm not sick anymore. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas come to the world; It does not violate the law of the world. There is no peculiarity. Manifest like all living beings (birth, old age, sickness, death, suffering; Love and hate parting from suffering; Ask for no suffering; The Five Yin Blazing Suffering] What ordinary beings can do. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can do it. Something that ordinary people can't do. Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can still do it. This is called the Bodhisattva's Ten Thousand Lines. The Bodhisattva Path of Empty Travel.

If sentient beings cling to their physical bodies and regard their false bodies as their true selves, the physical bodies that are synthesized by karma will eventually arise and die due to karma, and they will not last long. If the Dharma body is not bad, and in order to educate sentient beings, manifesting birth, old age, sickness, and death, and manifesting nirvana, in fact, it is not nirvana after all, and liberation is the dharma of non-action. For example, the pottery made by the ceramic craftsman will eventually be broken. Liberation is not so. True liberation is immortal. So liberation is as it comes. The same is true of the law, neither born nor destroyed, neither old nor dead, neither broken nor broken, and not a good law. That's why it's called Nyorai Entering Great Nirvana.

Great Nirvana is also called a place of liberation, and wherever there is a need to subdue sentient beings, it will manifest itself for them there, and it is precisely because of this true and profound righteousness that it is called Great Nirvana.

The Buddha is not like Nirvana, and the Dharma is not extinguished, for the benefit of sentient beings, it shows that the present is completely destroyed.

The Buddha then taught the Lord Jesus that everything that all sentient beings gain is karma, what kind of cause you sow, what kind of fruit you reap, sow melons and get beans, sow good and get good, sow evil and get evil, just like your Lord Jesus, because you love the world and teach people to be good, because of this merit you will become a god after you die.

Even if one does not believe in cause and effect, but because the cause of creation has not stopped, and if he has created bad karma, he will definitely receive evil retribution, and it is not that the time has not yet come for not retribution.
