Chapter 2:72 Who enlightens whom
() Chapter 2, verse 72, who enlightens whom
In order to show that they have given up their earthly fate and devoted themselves to the Buddha, Buddhists cut off their hair from the day they took refuge in the Buddha, and even burned incense scars on their heads. Of course, there are those who have hair, but those are all registered laymen, not personal heirlooms.
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south. Talking about Buddhism, Jing Xuan quickly walked out of the previous shyness, and after announcing the Buddha's name, he said: "What Li Daoyou said is not bad, but Xiao Ni thinks that we are waiting for the Buddha, and we should not be bound by the fetters on our bodies, only sincerity, isn't it?"
Jing Xuan said, with a pair of crystal eyes wide, looking directly at Li Yi, as if looking forward to Li Yi's approval.
Li Yi was stunned, when did this little nun of Jingxuan talk to herself instead of quoting scriptures and classics, turning the Buddha over and over, and talking confidently and calmly?
Thinking of Jing Xuan's before and after expression, Li Yi quickly found the reason: this little nun must have loved her hair and was reluctant to cut it off, but the little nun couldn't find a reason in the Buddhist scriptures that she had always believed, so the little nun had to comfort herself.
Am I really when you dedicate this life to the Buddha Nyorai as a fearless and unrepentant god? It was rare to see Jing Xuan in such a childish posture, and Li Yi couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
However, Li Yi did not show it on his face, and pretended to be a serious word: "Shitai's words are wrong, the Buddha did not say in the "Huayan Sutra" that 'all Buddhas and sentient beings are only one mind, and there is no other way. It can be seen from this that the way to Buddhahood is to be done. ”
All Buddhas and sentient beings are only one mind, and there is no other way. This means that "Buddha" and "sentient beings" are the same ontology, and this ontology is "mind", which is what we often call "Buddha xìn". This sentence is commonly said to be "all beings are equal, and all beings are Buddhas." ”
Since "Buddha xìn" is the same, why do some people become Buddhas and bodhisattvas, while others are ordinary people? This is the role of spiritual practice.
The Buddha and the ordinary "Buddha xìn" are like two pearls that are exactly the same, but the pearl of the Buddha and the Bodhisattva is clean and dust-free, while the pearl of the ordinary is covered with dust. Ordinary people can only become Buddhas by practicing and removing the dust from the pearl.
Ever since the Buddha made the "Three Thousand Troubles" Buddha to enlighten the younger brother who had fallen into the sea of suffering, Buddhists believed that hair was also "dust on the pearl" and had to be removed. The purpose of becoming a Buddha is to go to the Western Elysium, and where there will be any troubles in the Western Elysium, it's just a joke.
Hearing Li Yi refute himself with Buddhist scriptures, Jing Xuan's pretty face suddenly turned pale, Jing Xuan has read Buddhist scriptures well since she was a child, how can Jing Xuan not know what Li Yi said?
This time, Jing Xuan told Li Yi about the matter, because she felt that Li Yi had a lot of wisdom in Buddhism, and he could always push through the old and out, which was different from what was recorded in the Buddhist scriptures but was conclusive, out of his own thoughts, and thought-provoking. Maybe Li Yizhen can find the true meaning of Buddhism and solve this "three thousand troubles" that have plagued him for more than ten years?
It turned out that Li Daoyou also thought that I had to cut off my hair, otherwise how could Li Daoyou, who is a Taoist disciple, copy the Buddhist scriptures without changing a word? Sadly, I have always been weak-willed and unable to make up my mind.
Jing Xuan had a voice in her heart calling all the time, and she thought to herself with some self-pity: I have always wanted to ignite Li Daoyou, but now it seems that it is myself who really needs to ignite
Jing Xuan pursed her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it, her mind was in a hurry, her breathing seemed a little short, and her xōn part rose and fell, as if there was some secret hidden inside.
..................
Li Yi saw that Jing Xuan's eyes were pearish with rain, dizzy, and seemed to have suffered infinite grievances, for fear that Jing Xuan would accidentally cry out, and secretly said that he still stopped at the point, don't go too far, in case Jing Xuan listened to his own words, in order to strengthen his heart to the Buddha, he went back to find a pair of scissors, and made a big bald head with a "click", he was really guilty.
Having said that, Jing Xuan is really pitiful to me like this, even if I don't pity Jing Xuan's hair, I can't see Jing Xuan's Chu Chu appearance, even if it is to go to the soup and fire, I have to do it
Li Yi looked up at the sky, stroked his chin with his hand in contemplation, uh...... It's a pity that he is too young and has not grown a beard yet, otherwise he would have been addicted to a long beard fluttering fairy wind bones.
Li Yi shook his head and sighed: "Actually, Xiaodao is very dismissive of the Buddha's view of the 'Three Thousand Troubles', why should he bear the Three Thousand Troubles?"
"Ah" Jing Xuan was hesitating to cut off her hair, but the matter actually turned around in Li Yi's mouth, and her eyes lit up, and her words were a little eager to learn, and she asked: "What is Li Daoyou'......s high opinion?
As she was talking, Jing Xuan saw Li Yi's eyes burning, staring straight at herself, and the corners of her mouth were like a smile but not a smile, as if her own reactions were expected by Li Yi.
Li Yi has long known what he thinks in his heart, and he has long had a different view from the Buddha on the matter of shaving, and the reason why he wants to tell the story of the "Huayan Sutra" is just to see his expression, but the hateful thing is that he is still stupidly cooperating with Li Yi.
Thinking about it like this, Jing Xuan was ashamed and brainy, and her face was like a ripe apple, and she was about to drip blood. In a hurry, Jing Xuan stomped her foot, glared at Li Yi fiercely, and said coquettishly: "You...... You bullied Xiao Ni, don't you say it?" Even the title "Li Daoyou" that has been on his lips has been replaced with "you".
As soon as the words came out, Jing Xuan, who had a good quality, regretted it very much, didn't this violate the "anger precept"? Jing Xuan hurriedly folded his hands and said reverently: "Nan Wu Amitabha, sins and sins, please don't blame Xiao Ni." ”
Li Yike doesn't care what Bodhisattva blames or not, I believe in the ancestor of the Three Qing Ancestors. Seeing that one of the three famous nv in the cultivation world, under the seat of the Guanyin Zen Monastery of Putuo Mountain, Jing Xuan nv Ni, who takes all the living beings in the Pudu world as his own responsibility, is doing a child's NV posture, Li Yi still held back the smile in his heart, and laughed.
Hearing Li Yi's laughter, Jing Xuan only felt that she even felt that the root of her neck was red, and she couldn't wait to use something to block Li Yi's mouth, after all, more than ten years of the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha were not spent in vain, so Jing Xuan held the cold dust in her hand tightly, ignored Li Yi, and only lowered her head and recited "Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha" over and over again.
Belch...... Okay, it's strange that I'm laughing alone Seeing that Jing Xuan was about to chant again, Li Yi coughed and said, "The so-called 'man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the law of nature'." Since the Buddha said that 'the heart is the Buddha', why not follow the fate and follow the law?"
Li Yi is familiar with the doctrine of Taoism and Confucianism, but he seems to understand the doctrine of Buddhism, but he integrates ancient and modern theories, and knows that Buddhism and Taoism are both born teachings, and their principles are the same, and the "non-action" of Taoism and the "nirvana" of Buddhism are almost the same, but they are just different in their respective expressions.
Li Yi's sentence seems to be the Tao but not the Tao, and the Buddha is not the Buddha, which is to combine the ideas of Buddhism and Taoism with "nature".
Human hair is no better than the clothes on the body, everyone is born with hair, and as they get older, their hair slowly becomes longer, and no one is born with clothes, although everyone is born with clothes.
Therefore, the "external objects" that are often said in practice not to be bound by external objects can include clothes, but not hair, because hair is born naturally, while clothes are not.
According to the theory that there is no other way for the Buddhas and sentient beings in the Huayan Sutra, a newborn baby's "heart" is pure and immaculate, and it is naturally a "Buddha".
The six ancestors of Zen Buddhism, Hui Neng, said to the Buddha: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform." "Since hair is born naturally, if you cut your hair in order to convert to Buddhism, isn't it troublesome to get rid of "troubles"?
..................
In fact, in Li Yi's view, the shaving of Buddhism is not only to remove the "three thousand troubles", but also has the role of identification, just like a Taoist priest wants to tie a bun in his hair, which is a custom that has been passed down from generation to generation, and there is not much truth hidden in it.
Jing Xuan is "I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain", entangled in making an excuse for not cutting her hair, and she is just in the game.
This time, Li Yi's debate did not have too much ambiguity, and there was no need to make Jing Xuan go back and have a headache like the previous times, Jing Xuan was deeply familiar with Buddhism, and after a little thought, he had to understand, and suddenly realized: "Li Daoyou's words are as straightforward as drinking on the head, let Xiao Ni Daigo be empowered."
Don't worry about cutting your hair, the problem that has plagued you for more than ten years has been solved, Jing Xuan is of course happy, and she doesn't care too much about Fang Li Yi's teasing of herself, and told Li Yi some anecdotes: "Xiao Ni's senior sisters and sisters are very envious of Xiao Ni's ability to keep her hair, especially that Jing Yao's junior sister, every time she cuts her hair, she has tears in her eyes and is speechless?"
After a pause, Jing Xuan said with a little joy: "Xiao Ni will go back this time, and he will definitely tell the master and her old man about the Buddhism that Li Daoyou said, so that our senior sisters will not have to shave their heads in the future." ”
This one...... Xiaodao enlightened you today, you go back to enlighten your master, and in the future, your master will enlighten the monks and nuns of the entire Kyushu, and then the monks and nuns of the whole world will chant Nan Wu Amitabha Buddha with long hair fluttering......
With such a scene in mind, Li Yi couldn't help but shudder, and heard that Jing Xuan's master Ding Hui was too hot-tempered, if he let Ding Hui Shi know about his "fooling" Jing Xuan these days, would Ding Hui Shi Tai borrow the purple gold bowl of Monk Huikong and go all the way to Yunshan to send him to collect himself
Li Yi planned to strangle Jing Xuan's thoughts in swaddling clothes, and said in a serious way: "Mrs. Shi's words are also bad, since Mrs. Qi is not attached to her own and does not cut her hair, why should she be obsessed with cutting the hair of her sisters and sisters? Cutting hair or not cutting hair is the fate of the senior sisters and sisters, so it is naturally good."
Plausible theories always sound plausible.
If I don't dizzy you, I'm dizzy myself. Seeing that Jing Xuan really thought about it, Li Yi was happy in his heart, but he was unwilling to continue to entangle on this issue, one day Jing Xuan felt that something was wrong and thought of refuting himself, he had already run away from the clouds, and with Jing Xuan's xìn, he would never say his words without convincing himself.
Li Yi hurriedly diverted the topic and said: "It is rumored that Master Dinghui is too meticulous, how can he allow Master Tai to keep her hair?"
Hearing Li Yi talk about the master, Jing Xuan couldn't help but answer, and said: "Actually, in order to cut off her hair, the master and her old man have punished Xiao Ni a lot, but Xiao Ni was extremely stubborn when she was a child, and she would rather kneel in front of the Bodhisattva for a few days without eating, and then Xiao Ni was so hungry that she was dying, and the master failed to cut Xiao Ni's hair after all." ”
Thinking of the love, pity and helplessness in the master's eyes when he announced that he would not have to shave his degree in the future and become a special case of the Guanyin Zen Temple on Putuo Mountain, Jing Xuan couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth.
It was this smile, like a water lotus quietly blooming shyness, which happened to be looked at by Li Yi, who was standing opposite Jing Xuan, and Li Yi only felt the breeze blowing on his face in a trance.
"Master Dinghui can afford to take it and put it down, but he has done a great thing, and Xiaodao admires it. Thinking of Jing Xuan's stubborn appearance, Li Yi also felt funny, and said: "Shitai's long hair and shawl look is pleasing to the eye, why do you need to wear that hat to cover the beautiful green silk on your head?"
Li Yi didn't say that it was okay, as soon as he said that Jing Xuan's face that had finally normalized was red again, Jing Xuan seemed to remember something, and hurriedly picked up his hat and put it on, and tied his hair in between.
Belch...... As a monk of his own, it seems that it is not appropriate to say such words to a monk, and Li Yi is also a little embarrassed, but Jing Xuan's reaction is too big
Neither of them spoke, the room became quiet for a moment, and the leaves of the banana trees planted in the courtyard swayed gently in the breeze, and the sunlight swayed and reflected on the windows, diffusing the clarity of the banana trees, and enveloping them into a faint ambiguity, which penetrated Li Yijingxuan's heart......
I don't know if time is passing, Jing Xuan seems to be a little uneasy, and those who are used to xìn are about to fold their hands again. At this time, I could only hear the shopkeeper shouting loudly outside, and it turned out that it was time for lunch.
Somehow, Jing Xuan breathed a long sigh in her heart, and said to Li Yi: "Li Daoyou, do you want to go out to eat together?"
Is it time to eat? Li Yi frowned, why didn't he see Su Mei and Xiaobai today, where did they go? Before, I thought that Su Mei was bored, and pulled Xiaobai out shopping, but I haven't come back at this time, don't encounter any situation
It was an eventful time now, although he knew that Su Mei Xiaobai had the power to protect himself, Li Yi still couldn't rest assured, so he said: "Mrs. Shi will go first, Xiaodao will go to find her sister." ”
"Oh" Jing Xuan replied, "In this case, Xiao Ni will retire first" After that, Jing Xuan suddenly seemed to remember something, turned to Li Yi and said: "If Daoist friends have leisure, can Xiao Ni come to Daoist friends to ask for the true meaning of my Buddha?"
Jing Xuan completely forgot that she wanted to save Li Yi from the "Evil Demon Outer Dao" a few days ago.
Even though he knew very well that he was in Buddhism was half a bucket of water, looking at Jing Xuan's jewel-like eyes, how could Li Yi say a word, so he nodded.
Seeing Li Yi nodding, Jing Xuan felt relieved, and even felt lighter when she left.
..................
When Li Yi found Su Mei, Su Mei was sitting on a boulder by Poyang Lake with Xiaobai in her arms.
The sun hung in the middle of the western sky, and the sunlight sprinkled obliquely on the sparkling lake, like a broken brocade, and the face spread out from shallow to deep, spreading out like this, connecting with the blue sky in the distance, and a little white sè floating lightly between the water and the sky, I don't know if it was a cloud or a gulls.
Su Mei didn't care about Li Yi's arrival, as if the beautiful scenery in front of her had nothing to do with her, her petite back seemed so small in the vast water and sky, Su Mei seemed to be listening to the sad melody played by the lake beating on the shore, and it seemed to be accumulating the loneliness of the boulder standing by Poyang Lake for hundreds of millions of years.
However, Xiaobai saw Li Yi coming, jumped out of Su Mei's arms and flew to Li Yi's side, his eyes were full of worry, and he shouted at Li Yi with a "woo" in his mouth, asking Li Yi to persuade Su Mei.
Li Yi approached Su Mei and was about to ask what happened, but Su Mei spoke first and said, "Little Taoist, do you know the story of King Wu's war?"
Although Su Mei's tone was indifferent, Li Yi heard the unwillingness and helplessness, Li Yi let out a "chuckle" in his heart, and vaguely understood why Su Mei became like this.
Li Yi thought about it, and still replied: "Regarding King Wu's expedition, there is a record in the history books, saying that King Wu has no way, and King Wu and the military advisor Jiang Ya led eight hundred princes to fight each other......"
"Little Daoist, do you also think that it is the fox jīn Su Daji Íò who was originally wise and martial and the king of Shang is desolate?" Su Mei suddenly interrupted Li Yi's words, and her voice gradually became sharp and sharp.
History is an innocent little girl, you can dress her up in a dazzling mess, or you can strip her naked to the bare skin, provided you have the strength to change history.
"After saving Mei'er in Yunshan Bibōtan last time, the master once told Xiaodao the story of the nine-tailed fox clan, and Xiaodao knew something about the grand strategy of sealing the gods thousands of years ago. Seeing that he was suspected by Su Mei, Li Yi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "If Xiaodao also thinks that it is the fault of Su Daji's predecessors, he will not go to Qingqiu Mountain in the East China Sea with Mei'er this time." ”
In this world, where there is right and wrong, there is only a difference in position.
