Chapter 47 The Poor Monk Doesn't Know Either
"Good, good, all the hall masters have come to Lingshan from afar, they must have been hungry for a long time, why don't you try my Lingshan vegetarian fast?"
The World-Honored One was very hospitable, and he didn't ask a few Hades why they came here, so he had to hold a banquet on the spot.
All the Yamas, you look at me, I look at you, my heart is strange, but they all say that they are guests and hosts, so let's eat them first.
Within the Three Realms, there is no distinction between people, gods, demons, and Buddhas, and they are still very particular about etiquette. The first thing a guest does when he comes to the door is to ask for food and drink, and he must do his best to satisfy the guest, so that he will not be scolded for being a poor ghost.
Sure enough, it is the real world of the West, the Great Church of Bliss, and for a time there are all kinds of delicacies, water and land and strange things: what are the eight treasures in the eight treasures, what are the eight treasures in the eight treasures, what are the steamed lambs, steamed bear paws, steamed deer tails, roasted ducks, roasted chickens, roasted geese, braised pigs, braised ducks, sauced chickens, bacon, pine flower tripies, dried meat, sausages...... (joke joke)
Seeing that the nine Hades were stunned, this is the dish of the Western Elysium?
The Buddha smiled and said: "The palace kings don't have to wonder, these dishes are all vegetarian, but they only have the appearance of meat dishes."
I, the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of the Western Heavens, often eat these dishes that are inconsistent with the inside and the outside, not to solve the meaningless gluttony, but to satirize the many falsehoods in this world. Good, good......"
All the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Vajra raised their chopsticks one after another, and praised them in unison.
"Oh, I see, I said......"
"We just don't have the knowledge, and we shouldn't have doubts. How could there be those fishy things in this spiritual mountain resort of the World Venerable? Shame, shame!"
"Everything that the World-Honored One does has a great avenue contained in it, and we need our brothers to experience it with our hearts...... Otherwise, I will come to this spiritual mountain for nothing, and I will regret it!"
Anyway, what the World Venerable said, it must make sense. All the Yamas have a request for others, and since they have an opportunity, of course they must flatter desperately.
Thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, the Buddha must also like to be recited, and he shouldn't like to be scolded on the street.
Lingshan Suzhai is not the same as Xiaoke, it is really delicious, the Nine Palaces Yan Jun almost bit his tongue, and suddenly it was a sycophant, starting from the Buddha to praise, and then the Bodhisattva, King Kong, and the great monk in the back kitchen......
When the Buddha heard this, his face showed a sad look: "Good, good! The poor monk has delicious food in his stomach every day, but how can he forget the suffering of spreading my religion and begging for food in the past?"
How can you forget that the world is long, the sea of suffering is boundless, how many people are not enlightened, they can't eat three meals, and their lives are miserable?
This is all the fault of the poor monks! Nowadays, even if there is food, it is difficult to swallow. ”
At that moment, the Great Good World-Honored One immediately stopped eating, his face was very sad, he closed his eyes and recited the sutras, and all the Bodhisattvas and Arhats Vajra were all good, and then recited them together.
Anyway, halfway through eating, everyone suddenly remembered the misery of the world, and they refused to eat!
The nine Yamas looked at each other, neither holding the chopsticks in their hands, nor holding them, but they still couldn't eat this meal? It seems that they are really not full...... Lingshan's vegetarian food is so fragrant!
Yes, the Buddha is the first in the three realms of wisdom, the more fragrant the vegetarian food of this spiritual mountain, the more merciful the world-honored beings will be, and from then on two meals a day, meals can be compassionate!
Thinking of this, the nine Yamas suddenly stood in awe, and chanted in unison: "The Three Realms of World-Honored Compassion are hard to find, and we are all infected, we should swear to the Lingshan Resort today, and we should fast in the future, and be like a door!"
My Buddha's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "But no." The nine palace monarchs are the ministers of the heavenly court, and I am afraid that I will not have a chance with my Buddhism.
Good and good, since you have eaten enough, you can please take care of yourself, and the poor monks will not be far away. ”
"Oh, the World Venerable tortured me for waiting, how dare I let ......"
Halfway through his words, King Ping felt that the taste was not quite right, what was the situation? Why did Shizun ask me to wait for me to leave after half a meal, wasn't this an order to expel guests?
King Yama was the most anxious, and said loudly: "World-honored, my brothers didn't come to Lingshan to beg for food, they have something to ......do."
"Good, good, you wait for the poor monks to know, but now you can't help you. ”
King Ping walked up to the World Venerable and bowed deeply: "Although our brothers are in the Yin Division, our hearts are towards the Buddha Kingdom, and I ask the World Venerable for mercy." ”
"It's good, it's not that the poor monk doesn't want to, but it can't.
Anyway, the poor monk has four words to give to the palace monarchs, and how much they can understand depends on the wisdom of the palace monarchs. ”
The Buddha smiled and said, "The world is empty, what can come to Wukong?
The Nine Palaces Yan Jun pricked up their ears one after another, kept them in their hearts, pondered in every way, tried to solve them in every way, and finally was desperate.
What is the Buddha talking about, I really don't understand......
"Good, good!"
The Buddha looked at Yan Jun of the Nine Palaces, and his eyes were full of sorrow: "You palace monarchs really have no chance with my Buddhism, so let's go!"
With a flick of the Buddha's hand, the nine Yan Jun were wrapped in boundless Buddha power and flew out of the mountain gate far away.
I don't know how long later, a scream like a cuckoo crying blood came from outside the Lingshan: "I have always been close to the Buddha Gate of Lingshan, why does the Buddha treat me like this! I can't wait......
The Buddha's face showed great compassion and suffering, but he was silent.
Guanyin Bodhisattva was merciful and compassionate, after all, he was soft-hearted, and couldn't help but say: "The Nine Palaces Yan Jun entered the Spirit Mountain together, there must be something important to ask my Buddha, why does my Buddha refuse to help?"
The Buddha's four sentences, Guanyin Bodhisattva, did not understand it, and knew that most of it was a heavenly opportunity, so he didn't ask.
The Buddha smiled and said, "If the time is not right, the poor monk must not make a move." ”
The Bodhisattva was still curious, and asked, "The poor monk is puzzled, so I ask the Buddha to clarify." ”
The Buddha looked at her and thought to himself, how could this wonderful goodness also learn to break the casserole?
The Bodhisattva is sexless, and Guanyin Bodhisattva deliberately turned into a woman in order to purify sentient beings, embody compassion, get closer to the people, and facilitate the masses.
However, Buddhism is the most about cause and effect, since she has chosen a woman, it is inevitable that there will be a trace of a woman's temperament, after all, she has not yet become a Buddha, and she can't go to the delicate stubbornness unique to women.
The Buddha sighed: "Okay, just say that you know about Miaoshan."
There is a flower and fruit mountain in the Dongsheng Divine Continent, which is the most special place in the Three Realms, with no mountain god land and no immortal Buddha inheritance.
All because there is a fairy stone in the Huaguo Mountain, which is said to be left by Nuwa, and there is a water curtain cave, the origin of the owner is mysterious, that is, the one in the Tushi Palace is also vague about it, and the poor monk is also difficult to know.
One hundred and thirty-seven years ago, a spirit monkey was born in the five-colored stone that mended the sky. The poor monk counted this monkey as having a fate with my Buddhism, and he should be born one hundred and thirty-seven years later, and then go to the sea to seek immortals in one hundred and thirty-seven years.
This monkey should have a Buddha position, but he is also a messy expert, an expert in breaking the sky, and he needs to be subdued by the poor monk in the future, so that he can complete the great cause of my Buddhism. ”
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas nodded silently, it turns out that my Buddha's calculations are so far-reaching, and this monkey is indeed the key person.
"It was the poor monk who ordered the Bodhisattva of the Tibetan King to give the monkey the name 'Monkey King', that is, at the beginning of its gestation, it would have cause and effect with my Buddhism.
Originally, everything was as it was, and there was no deviation, but in the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, the stone monkey broke out of the stone and gave himself a name, but it was called 'Sun Dakong'. ”
Guanyin Bodhisattva's hand shook twice: "But how can this be?"
You must know that Buddhism is boundless, since the Jizo King Bodhisattva has already set a name in the book of life and death, even if this stone monkey gives himself a name, it must be 'Sun Wukong', if he does not take it himself, no matter who names him in the future, it will also be this name, which shows the wonder of Buddhism, and there is cause and effect in the book of life and death.
As a result, this monkey took the name 'Sun Dakong', which seemed to be a trivial matter, but it surprised all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
This little stone monkey actually broke the cause and effect that the Buddha had woven for him as soon as he was born, and once this cause and effect was broken, it was equivalent to breaking the Buddha's fate!
"That's it...... A few days ago, King Qin Guang of the Yin Division's 'Ghost Judgment Palace' must have discovered a change in the Book of Life and Death, and brought eighty soul envoys and ten judges to Huaguo Mountain, preparing to hook the soul of Sun Dakong......"
Guanyin hurriedly asked, "But hooked?"
The Buddha smiled and said: "Not only did he fail to hook his soul, but King Qin Guang and his subordinates disappeared mysteriously. That Xuanqiong God's heart is towards this monkey, and he is angry that the Nine Yan Monarchs are close to me in the West, and they refuse to make decisions for him, so that the Nine Yan Monarchs have come to the door today. ”
Guanyin was puzzled: "Even so, my Buddha should be the master for them, so Sun Dakong is also related to my Buddhism, how can I stand idly by." ”
"Good, good, good. ”
The Buddha sighed: "It's not a sleeve, but even the poor monk doesn't know where the king of Qin Guang went......"
There was a sudden silence on the Spirit Mountain, and even the Scattered Flower Celestial Maiden flying in the air stopped her hand and looked at the World-Honored Rulai blankly.
