Pushan Zen place, compassion and compassion for the world.

This poem was written by Lu Anyan, the priest of the former dynasty, and was widely recognized by the temples of the rivers and lakes. Zen Buddhism has always been compassionate, universal sentient beings as the highest Dharma, so there are Zen monks to go west to learn scriptures and cross the world to help people.

Cultivators, all take feathering and ascending immortals as the motto, all things are nothing more than the law of the world, the law of life is destroyed, it is not righteousness, it is not the end, the moon in the water, the flower in the moon. The purpose of a Buddha practitioner is to ascend to the Buddha's throne, incarnate as a Vajra Bodhisattva, and see perfection with a clear mind. The two concepts are contrary to each other, but they both have a master, a person who ascends to the immortal, and a Buddha who becomes a Buddha. Therefore, the two have gradually developed into a unique existence that combines the Jianghu sect and religion, absorbing incense and enjoying offerings.

Confucianism is the opposite of it, to say that the concept of classic Confucianism is not less than these two religions, benevolence, righteousness and fraternity, there is no class in education, and so on, but if you dig deeper, all the concepts of Confucianism can actually be summed up in four words: for the country and the people! This is also an important reason why Confucianism has been appreciated by the imperial court, except for Confucianism, the patriarch of Confucianism, Confucius and Meng Yasheng, Confucianism has not appeared again to rule the world with Dinglun to break through the emptiness and attain the Tao, but the treatment of Confucianism is not inferior to Zen Taoism, and even far higher than these two sects.

In the Zen temple, you can see the towering stone Buddha standing there from a distance, this stone Buddha is dozens of zhang high, it can be called a ghostly axe, and it is the creation of heaven and earth! In addition to the Tiangang sword tablet of Tianshu Sect, there is really nothing that can be compared with this stone Buddha in the whole world. The Buddha statue bends its arms and raises it in front of its chest, its fingers are naturally stretched, and its palms are outward, which is the Buddhist fearless seal! The Buddha statue is broad and rich, graceful and generous, kind and dignified, and solemn, not to say that it is a monk in the Zen temple, even ordinary people who do not believe in Buddhism will be in awe when they see this Buddha statue, and they can't help but come forward to worship!

Many years ago, when Senluo Mansion wanted to slaughter Zen Buddhism, the Senluo Mansion gang was also in awe when they saw this stone Buddha, and they didn't dare to hurt the stone Buddha in the slightest.

Today, all the Zen monks are looking up around the stone Buddha, and when they look closely, they find that on one hand of the Buddha statue sits a little monk wearing a brown robe with a Buddha bead around his neck.

The little monk has been sitting in the palm of the Buddha for several days, and the little monk has not eaten, drank, or spoken for a few days, but just stared blankly into the distance, where Pushan Mountain descended.

At first, when the Zen monks found the little monk, they thought that the little monk was playful, and then reprimanded the little brother a few times, and asked him to hurry down, which was a great disrespect to the Buddha, but the little monk did not pay attention to him, and the monk did not care, thinking that the little monk would naturally come down when he was hungry, but for several days, whenever he looked towards the Buddha statue, he could see the little monk!

Thinking of this, a group of monks hurriedly went to find the abbot of Mingjing, and the abbot sighed heavily when he heard this, but he just said a word of sin and disappeared, and closed his eyes and chanted the scriptures.

The little monk's brothers had no choice, and went to find the second master of Zen Buddhism, Shenxiu monk, who knew that Shenxiu monk actually retreated and practiced, no one saw him, helpless, the monks' martial arts were mediocre, and they couldn't go up to this towering stone Buddha at all, they could only look up below, today, it was the seventh day!

"Little junior brother, we made a ladder for you, you just slide down the ladder slowly!"

"Little junior brother, come down quickly, you haven't eaten or drunk for seven days, and if you continue like this, you will die of thirst and starvation!"

"Yes, junior brother, what can't you think of!"

......

The monks under the stone Buddha kept shouting to the little monk, and the little monk's empty eyes seemed to have a hint of brilliance, "It's been seven days." The little monk muttered to himself, because he had not eaten or drunk for seven days and did not speak, the little monk's voice was weak and the crowd was a little hoarse.

The little monk stretched out his tongue and gently licked his chapped and pale lips, "The Buddha said that in seven days, you can forget the cause and effect of the world, and you can cut off the seven emotions and six desires, but the Buddha deceived me! I still can't forget her, and I can't stop cutting that love thread!"

"Huineng, come down first, this matter needs to be considered in the long run. The sound of the clear abbot was like a bell, ringing in the ears of the little monk.

The little monk shook his head, "I can't forget her, I can't become a Buddha." ”

At this time, the monks of Zen Buddhism had moved the extended wooden ladder over, and the wooden ladder was set up on the stone Buddha, and a group of people shouted loudly for the little monk to climb down, and the little monk slowly closed his eyes, and two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks in his eyes. The little monk folded his hands and jumped down directly from the Buddha's palm, this Buddha's palm is more than ten zhang away from the ground, if it is not for the top master of light skills, it is certain to die! Where is the little junior brother who is a master of light skills! He has not even practiced a trace of martial arts, and he has not even opened the first pulse, and now from such a high jump, the monks who are watching have closed their eyes and can't bear to look at the next scene.

The little monk fell rapidly in the air, and when he was about to hit the ground, his body was agitated, and he actually landed slowly without the slightest damage!

A group of monks hurriedly gathered around the little monk, asking in surprise! The little monk was silent, and not long after, the abbot of Mingjing came to the little monk, and the monks hurriedly suppressed his words and looked at the abbot of Mingjing.

"Huineng, since you can't forget it, just let it be, there are some things that you can't force. Abbot Mingjing spoke.

"Go with the flow, do nothing, hehe, when did the master learn the Taoist classics. The little monk smiled weakly.

Abbot Mingjing obviously didn't have the heart to joke with the little monk, and said with a heavy expression: "Don't talk so much about it first, you should go and recuperate for a few days first! Although there are ascetics in my Zen Buddhism, I don't eat or drink like you, don't think about that woman anymore, after a long time, I will forget it." ”

"After a long time, can you forget? It's been a lifetime, how can it be longer? Will it be another life?" the little monk smiled miserably.

"Huineng! Shen Yan!" Abbot Mingjing suddenly shouted at the little monk, interrupting the little monk's words, and waved his hand after speaking, and a wall made of internal force enveloped the two of them, and no sound could be heard.

The little monk is now like ashes, why do you care about this?

I can't forget her for a day, and I can't become a Buddha for a day.

Looking at the miserable situation of the little monk, the abbot of Mingjing sighed, "Huineng, there is a method in Zen Buddhism, which is a forbidden law, and this method can help you forget the three thousand troubles, would you like to give it a try?"

"How?"

"I will use Buddhism to seal your memory, this is not to seal your love roots, your previous memories will be sealed along with that woman, including the memories of your past life that you just recalled, from now on you will be practicing penance in Zen Buddhism, striving to absorb the relics as soon as possible, what do you think?" Abbot Mingjing said lightly.

The little monk smiled bitterly and nodded, "Just do what the master says!" Seal all your memories, forget about the red dust, and escape into the empty door. ”

The abbot of Mingjing stared at the little monk's face and said, "You really think about it! If this seal becomes me, I can't break it, and it can be said that the fate of the two of you in this life will be broken." ”

"I am a Zen monk, the six roots need to be purified, what fate do you want. The little monk said lightly.

"Okay!" as soon as the abbot's voice fell, he opened his mouth to chant, and the Buddha's voice lingered. I saw the golden light scattered around the abbot, and the palm was still flourishing!

The abbot of Mingjing slapped his palm on the center of the little monk's eyebrows, "Seeing nature with a clear mind, seeing cause and effect is true, purifying one's mind, being led by karma, sinking into the six realms, is the Dharma of all Buddhas." ”

A burst of golden light scattered outward, fortunately the internal force of the previous cloth of the abbot of Mingjing blocked it, and the little monk covered his head and shouted in pain, which lasted for a whole stick of incense.

After a stick of incense, the abbot of Mingjing withdrew the golden light and slowly exhaled it, and the little monk fell directly to the ground unconscious, unconscious.
