Copying scriptures and tasting tea
Qingli came out of the shower and found that breakfast had been delivered. Qingli finished breakfast and began to copy the scriptures. Qingli thought that next year's Buddha's birthday was less than eight months away. Her parents were able to come to the puja. Although she has taken refuge in Buddhism, she has not repaid her kindness. Buddhism pays attention to cause and effect, and she also wants to do something for her family. The scriptures copied by the Buddha are quite precious to ordinary people. Because when they are copying, they tend to inject their own thoughts into it. So the scriptures will reflect the situation of the copyist to a certain extent.
However, in just two days, Qingli has deeply realized how special people with Buddha seeds are. At least when her cultivation was still so low, the desire in the copied scriptures was no less than that of the Buddhist cultivators in the Juyuan period. That is to say, the scriptures she copied for the blessing of her family are put in front of the Buddha and worshipped, and she recited them devoutly every day, and when they are handed over to her parents, they will really play a certain role in protecting her family.
Qingli copied the "Jizo Bodhisattva Sutra" today. With gratitude to her parents, Qingli prayed for the happiness and health of her family while copying and reciting. In the process of copying, the Buddha Yuan Force in the body unconsciously operated. The Bodhi leaves in the clear glass dantian are even more golden. A part of the Buddha's Yuan Power was injected into the Buddha beads that she hung in front of her. Waiting for these one hundred and eight Buddha beads to be nourished by the Buddha's Yuan Force. They begin to emit a faint glow. Then those Buddha Yuan forces seemed to be compressed and purified by the Buddha beads, and a pure Buddha Yuan Force fed back into the clear glass dantian. Qingli was aware of this, but she quickly sank her whole mind into the scriptures again.
By the time Qingli finished copying and reciting the "Jizo Bodhisattva Honwish Sutra", three quarters of an hour had passed. Qingli respectfully placed the copied scriptures in front of the Buddha shrine, and then bowed three times to the Buddha statue. At this time, Qingli had the heart to investigate the abnormality he had just noticed. Qingli looked inside the dantian and found that the Buddha Yuan Power under the seedling of the Bodhi tree had become much less, but the color was more golden. The Buddha's Yuan Power has also become much more mellow. Qingli recalled the actions when she had just copied the scriptures, and tentatively injected a trace of Buddha Yuan power into the Buddha beads. Sure enough, after a while, a trace of thinner, but more refined Buddha Yuan Power overflowed from the Buddha beads and entered his dantian. Qingli realized at this moment that the warmth of the Buddha beads could not only deepen the intimacy between herself and the Buddha beads, but also purify her Buddha Yuan power.
Qingli was very pleasantly surprised by this discovery. Know that doing so will slow down your spiritual progress. Not only can he strengthen his foundation, but also make his Buddha Yuan Power the largest among the monks of the same level. The power of the Buddha's Yuan Force has also increased. Qingli decided to inject all the Buddha's Yuan Power into the Buddha beads for warmth after each cultivation.
Qingli is a decisive person, and since he has already made a decision, he starts to act. She returned to the meditation room and began to inject the Buddha Yuan power in her body into the Buddha beads endlessly. The Buddha beads also continued to feed back the purified Buddha Yuan Power to her. After running like this for a few weeks, Qingli found that the Buddha Yuan Power in his body was only the amount of the first layer of the Buddha. However, Qingli is, after all, the realm of the second layer of the Buddha. At this time, the aura around her began to pour into her body automatically. In order to prevent being blown up by the aura, Qingli began to run exercises to transform the aura into the Buddha's Yuan Force. This time, Qingli didn't just store the converted Buddha Yuan Power in the dantian. Instead, these Buddha Yuan forces were injected into the Buddha beads. I don't know how long it cycled, and when the aura around it stopped pouring into his body, Qingli stopped running the exercises.
Qingli opened her eyes and found that the Buddha beads on her chest seemed to be full of energy. At first glance, it doesn't seem to be anything special, but if you look closely, you will find that each bead is faintly radiating. Qingli could feel that her connection with the Buddha beads was getting closer.
Qingli looked at the drip and found that there was still more than an hour before lunch. Qingli began to use the Buddha's knowledge to engrave the Diamond Sutra into the corresponding Buddha beads. Not every bead requires the entire sutra to be activated. Some beads only need a part of a scripture to activate. And at this moment, what Qingli is about to activate is a Buddha bead with a defensive function. Although activating it only requires a passage from the Diamond Sutra. But this time, Qingli didn't dare to hold it up. As soon as she felt that her Buddha consciousness was a little weak, Qingli stopped and meditated. Fortunately, activating the beads does not require the entire sutra to be infused at once. Otherwise, Qingli doesn't know how long it will take to activate a Buddha bead.
In this way, the carving stopped, and when it was lunchtime, Qingli reluctantly used Buddhist knowledge to engrave a passage of more than 300 words into the Buddha beads. Seeing the Buddha bead flashing with a golden light representing activation, Qingli breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, the law of the universal divine consciousness of the reborn in the novel does not appear in Qingli. The practice of Buddhism is originally to take into account both internal and external, and to practice the Dharma body together. Buddha's consciousness is also generally higher than his own realm. But the extent to which this is high is also limited. At present, the realm of Qingli is the second layer of asking Buddha, and the Buddha's consciousness is in the fourth layer of asking Buddha. But Qingli obviously felt that after using the Buddha to burn the scriptures into the Buddha beads, her Buddha knowledge became more condensed. Qingli understands that this is a good way to cultivate Buddhahood. Even though every time she burned the scriptures, she could feel exhausted from the depths of her spirit. However, Qingli still decided to speed up the activation of the function of the Buddha beads.
Kiyori left the temple half an hour after lunch. She followed the route she had taken yesterday to the fourth floor of the Scripture Pavilion. Today, on the fourth floor of the Scripture Pavilion, only Master Yuan is alone. He was sitting on a futon with a tea set on a low table in front of him. Qingli stepped forward and saluted: "Amitabha, disciple Qingli pays a visit to the master." β
"Amitabha. He bent down and saluted back. Then he pointed to the other side of the dwarf table and motioned for Qingli to sit down. Qingli sat down on the futon on the other side.
Liyuan reached out and poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qingli. Qingli took it with both hands, and in the small cup, the tea soup was red, and the faint fragrance came to the nose. Qingli took a deep breath a little intoxicated, and only then took a small sip. Closing her eyes and feeling the warm tea soup running down her throat, Qingli only felt that the pores all over her body were opened, which was extremely refreshing. Qingli opened her eyes in some surprise and took another sip of tea. Then he looked at the master who was sitting opposite the low table.
Yuan smiled and asked, "How do you feel after drinking this tea?"
"Hmm," Qingli tilted her head in thought, as if organizing the language, "quiet and peaceful, quiet and comfortable. β
"Hahahaha," Liyuan laughed out loud, "Tasting tea is like tasting people." Disciple, you can taste these points, and you are really a person with great wisdom. β
Qingli still doesn't understand that this tea is brewed by fate. Even if the old monk in front of him is really as pure as the tea shows. At this moment, his invisible boasting also made her disrespectful.
Qingli opened his mouth and said, "Shizun called me, it won't be just for me to taste your good tea art, right?"
Yuan smiled: "This is just one of the reasons. Good boy, you don't have any love yet, right? I see that you have asked the second layer of the Buddha in less than two months. If you continue like this, I'm afraid that you will gather yuan before you are six years old. Find a hobby to spend time. β
Other people's masters want their disciples to seize the time and work hard to cultivate. Only the master in the Fahua Temple will advise the apprentice to find a hobby to spend time early. If you don't know the reason for this, another person will definitely hate such a master.
Qingli drank the tea in the small cup in one gulp, and unceremoniously refilled another cup by herself: "But hobbies are not something that can be found casually." Yesterday, I also told Brother Cheongtan that my hobby is beauty. However, this is obviously not suitable for cultivation in Buddhism. Do you have any suggestions?"
He looked like he was waiting for you to ask: "Good boy, this tea is delicious, isn't it? Why don't you learn how to make tea and cook tea?" This kind of tea making and cooking tea can cultivate sentiment and temperament. β
"That's not the only reason why you want me to learn how to make and cook tea? Qingli looked straight at the edge.
Obviously, Qingli underestimated the thickness of the edge of the face. He smiled scoundrelly: "The important thing is that the teacher likes to drink tea." The so-called disciples who have something to do are obedient. Anyway, you don't have any hobbies right now, so you might as well leave it at that. And you love beauty so much, beauty cooking tea is a scene in the world. β
Hehe, Qingli wanted to hehe with a face. Sure enough, the top and bottom of Fahua Temple are black inside. The higher you go, the darker your stomach becomes. How could she expect her master to have discipline? Sure enough, she still didn't cultivate enough, and she was too naΓ―ve. But after listening to the last sentence, Qingli was moved again.
Don't look at Qingli's two lifetimes, and the two lives are quite Buddhist. In fact, she is a sullen inside. Although she doesn't feel like a peerless beauty. But she really loves beauty. Now that he is a candidate for Buddha, he has no hope of dressing up in this life. obviously knew that the last sentence of the fate was simply fooling her. But Qingli still jumped into the pit willingly. She nodded: "In this case, let's learn first." If I'm really interested, I'll definitely take it up as a hobby. β
The one that was covered by a white beard. The corners of his mouth hooked: "Then good boy, for the teacher, I will tell you the tea scripture today." The innermost bookshelf on the first floor of the Scripture Pavilion holds books on various customs and human feelings in the cultivation realm, and the four arts of cultivation. You can also flip through it, there are also books on tea art. β
So, Qingli's first afternoon of studying with her master was to listen to her master talk about the so-called tea scripture. Maybe she really has expectations for tea art, or maybe it's because the fate is too vivid. In short, Qingli began to cultivate her lifelong hobby on this day.
When Shen Shi, Qingli followed Yuan to do an evening class in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. Then she took a few books on tea art recommended by Yuan, as well as the red clay stove and tea set that Yuan gave her to practice cooking tea, and went out of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion in a daze. It wasn't until she returned to the monastery that she came to her senses. Sure enough, the old monk's routine was deep, and she was fooled miserably.
