Chapter 46 The Origin of the Ancient Book
Although reciting the Dharma is concise and easy to do, it is by no means enough to recite "Amitabha", it requires practitioners to study the Buddhist scriptures, recite the Buddha's name, and cultivate pure karma at the same time, so as to establish a confidence that is as solid as a diamond and a rock and maintain it, without wavering in the slightest, so that they can accumulate aspiration through chanting the Buddha and communicate with the Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha.
However, ordinary practitioners are beginners, so how easy is it to establish such a firm belief?
To deal with this problem, Master Huiyuan adopted the method of the wheel of life.
By means of unbelievable means, the guru constructs an illusory shadow in the depths of the consciousness of the recipient (called the sea of qi in the Taoist gate) to evolve the virtual realm of Amitabha Buddha's Pure Land, which is the true appearance of Amitabha Buddha, reflecting the majestic land of Amitabha Buddha, and all kinds of wonderful truths are revealed, including the 48 vows made by the Buddha when he was a Dharma Tibetan bhikshu, receiving the ten directions of reciting Buddha sentient beings, and clarifying the conditions for the three generations to be reborn in the Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha.
After the construction of this virtual realm, the body and mind of the recipient are reflected, and the "heart" that needs to be adhered to on the path of cultivating Buddhism can be concluded, and the "other power" in the practice of "self-self-power" in reciting the Dharma can be completed, and the rest is the process of the practitioner's "self-reliance" practice.
Of course, the Guru himself has never really seen the Pure Land of Amitabha Buddha, and the effect of the constructed virtual realm is entirely up to the Guru's understanding and understanding, but it is enough to strengthen the confidence of a beginner like the recipient.
It turned out that this was the true meaning of this exercise, Zhao Ran listened while comparing it with what he knew.
It is no wonder that the Aquarius monk was able to put his consciousness into his own qi sea back then, so he contemplated his true appearance and was able to understand the breakthrough realm, which turned out to be the reason for constructing the evolutionary void realm in his own qi sea. As for the Aquarius Monk's desire to take away ——— consciousness, isn't it easy to take away? Perhaps this is also the reason why this exercise is regarded as an evil skill of taking away.
From Master Longyang's point of view, good people use knives to eradicate evil, and wicked people use knives to do evil, which has nothing to do with the good and evil of the knife itself. But Zhao Ran felt that it was understandable if you wanted to say that this exercise was not good, after all, he had suffered from it himself.
I thought of Dongfang Li's vague mention that the Life Wheel Method and the Daomen Bone Correction Method were originally a set of exercises, maybe this kind of speculation is very possible, in short, it is "not taking the usual path".
Putting aside the rights and wrongs of good and evil, from the perspective of the bones, how to embed it in the altar of ascension, you can figure it out in a blink of an eye.
The principle of the orthopaedic method is to break up the root bones of the practitioner, regenerate the bones, and connect the bones (this bone is not the other bone, the bone of the root bone), and produce the root bone that conforms to the practice, which is the success of the bone-setting, otherwise it is a failure, and it all depends on one's own luck.
Zhao Ran himself has been right twice, he is considered lucky, and he is producing a half-good root. Many people even die directly in the process and never wake up again.
According to the statistics that are not made public by the Daomen, the success rate is probably less than one percent, ten people are right, even if one of them succeeds, even if the result is not bad, the rest of the people who can survive are actually good, at least not dead.
If, at the time of opening the altar of the ascending gate, the caster with a higher cultivation casts this spell, constructs an illusion in the consciousness of the recipient, and throws the intact root bone structure into the sea of qi, according to the effect of this spell, this bone structure void realm and the recipient's body and mind are reflected one by one, then after the bones are scattered, most of them will be reborn according to the root bone structure in the void.
It is equivalent to giving your body a reference map for regenerating root bones!
To put it bluntly, if you use this spell in the process of opening the altar of the ascension gate, as long as you survive and don't die, the success rate of the orthopedic bones will increase in a straight line!
Thinking of this, Zhao Ran forcibly suppressed his excitement, and pretended to say casually: "Oh? There is such a technique? It's strange, I don't know if the master brought it? Can I take a look at it now?"
Since Zhao Ran proposed to see it, of course Master Long Yang could not refuse, he secretly visited Zhao Ran late at night, firstly, to strive for better development prospects for Jialan Temple, and secondly, he actually wanted to persuade Zhao Ran to join the Buddhist practice. In his description, it seems that teaching spells was a condition for Zhao Ran to agree to accept the Jialan Temple, but in fact, this was also one of the purposes of his visit.
Master Longyang had already talked to the abbot Long Ji many times about the issue of "becoming an owner", and had specially communicated with Master Wulan, the abbot of Jialan Temple, and everyone agreed that they should help the Chengdong family to cross the threshold of cultivation as soon as possible.
The reason is very simple, it is too important to become the owner! Where is the happiness without comparison? Where is the envy from which is not compared? Who does not feel happy in the Tianmatai Temple today? Who does not envy the mysterious Jialan Temple? But the bright prospects are all tied to one person, and for the monks of the two monasteries, they simply dare not imagine the days when they did not become the owner.
But Cheng Dongjia is too fragile at the same time! As an ordinary person who has not practiced, can Cheng Dong's family live to 60? Without cultivation, and encountering some minor illness and disaster, will Cheng Dong's family be able to survive? If Cheng Dong's family is unfortunate enough to encounter gangsters robbing the road when they go out...... These questions are simply impossible to think about, and it is extremely scary to think about them!
Of course, Long Yang didn't think that Cheng Dongjia could understand the Shengsheng Wheel Method, but at least it was a way to win the trust of Cheng Dongjia and encourage him to practice. For this reason, Jialan Temple specially sent a senior monk to Xingqing Mansion in person, brought the origin of the ancient book of this spell, and handed it over to Master Longyang.
This is a yellowed ancient book, I don't know what kind of paper it is made of, although it has been ten thousand years, it is still tough and soft. A few ink characters on the front of the book cover ——— "The Wheel of Life".
After Zhao Ran took it, with his admiration for the senior monks, he carefully flipped through the pages one by one.
The scripture is very short, only seven pages in total, about 300 words, and it talks about the methods of condensing consciousness, entering the sea of qi, and constructing the void in three steps. Zhao Ran never forgot it, and he finished it with a cup of tea, and all the words were memorized in his heart. After reading it, his first feeling was that this sutra was really not a Buddhist scripture!
From the principle of the exercises, from the description of the text, they are all original Taoist thoughts!
Although this scripture is short, it can be called the most important classic that Zhao Ran has read since he crossed over to this world, and for him, there is no one!
In the past, the difficulties in cultivation caused by the root bone cause will be solved. As long as he starts again, Zhao Ran will get rid of the barrier of improper bones and step into the smooth path of cultivation. Let those geniuses go to hell, Lao Tzu will also be one of the geniuses in the future!
Even, he has more ideas......
After coming to Xia Country for a year, tonight is the biggest gain, so much information in the court, lucrative industries such as the Jinbo Club, and more than 100,000 taels of huge wealth, compared with tonight, it is not worth mentioning at all.
Solemnly handing back the ancient book "The Wheel of Life Sutra" to Master Longyang, Zhao Ran closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, straightened out the context of the exercises in the scriptures, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, master, for showing such an important ancient book, and becoming a certain inscription. I agreed, and I will persuade the rest of the people to agree to include Jialansi as a major shareholder of Tianma Pharmaceutical, and have voting rights, and the shares can be transferred by Tianmatai Temple......"
Zhao Ran is sincerely grateful to Master Longyang, Tianmatai Temple, and Jialan Temple, in addition to gratitude, he is still grateful.
After hearing this, Master Longyang moved his eyebrows with joy, and said: "The poor monk Dai Jialan Temple thanked Cheng Dongjia! Cheng Dongjia rest assured, to perform the life wheel method, it is necessary to open the Arhat Realm monk of the tongue realm to take action, and the abbot of our temple, Brother Long Ji, will personally go to Xingqing Mansion to light up the virtual realm for the Chengdong family......
saw Zhao Ran shook his head: "Master, please forgive Cheng for not being able to practice Buddhism." Cheng a certain clan has a foundation in the Ming Dynasty, if you practice Buddhism, you can't explain it clearly, the master is kind, Cheng can only understand it. ”
Long Yang was greatly disappointed: "This ...... If the Cheng family doesn't practice, what can it be good to meet the young people? Moreover, cultivation can prolong life......
Zhao Ran said: "The master is relieved, Cheng is confident, and he is generally not close to Cheng's side." As for cultivation, the master said that Cheng did business and traveled from south to north, and he did know a few characters in the Taoist sect, and Cheng would look for opportunities, and believed that one day he would get what he wanted. ”
Seeing Zhao Ran's resolute attitude, Long Yang had no choice but to say, "That's ...... If there is something, Cheng Dong will tell him. Our temple and the temple will do their best to help each other and ensure that the owner is worry-free. As he spoke, he took out a few talismans from his sleeve: "These are the three flying talismans refined by the poor monk and the abbot of the Jialan Temple, Senior Brother Wulan, and when they encounter an emergency, they can communicate with the poor monk and others." ”
Buddhism's refining of flying talismans is borrowed from the Daomen, and there are a few differences in them, Zhao Ran quickly learned the method of using it according to Long Yang's instructions.
