Chapter 33: "The Ambition of the Grand Plan Rises in the Heart, and the Buddhists Want to Achieve the Great Cause"

After receiving the canonization of the Jade Emperor and participating in the peach event for the first time, he returned to Lingshan, and after everything was arranged in an orderly manner, he immediately began to sort out the Buddhist scriptures.

The Buddhist scriptures are vast and messy, that is, there are the writings of the Buddhas in the past life, and there are also the teachings of the sages in the present life, if one person is to sort out, it will inevitably consume a lot of energy, so the eldest disciple Ka Ye and the second disciple Jin Chanzi together to help sort out the scriptures.

This great disciple Ka Ye and the Buddha also have a fate, is his father to the Bodhi tree to ask for a son, and then into the Buddha, such as when preaching the scriptures, the Buddha had a flower, Ka Ye is smiling, becoming the first lineage of Zen Venerable.

The Buddhist scriptures were fashionable and messy at the time, and after the preliminary arrangement of Rulai and his disciples, they were assembled into a system, called Hinayana Buddhism.

Theravada Buddhism emphasizes monasticism, self-cultivation and meditation, focusing on self-control, no quarrel with the world, no desires, and eliminating the suffering in the heart, which is the original essence of Buddhism.

Jin Chanzi gained his own human body, became his second disciple under the throne of the Buddha, listened to the Buddha's lectures every day, and took the newly arranged Buddhism to study hard, every time until the middle of the night three watches, concentrated, and did not care about the things outside the window.

It is said that the Buddha preaches the Dharma every day, and the Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and holy monks listen to the sermons every day, and the number of believers is becoming more and more numerous. Some of the believers have completely left the world to become monks, some have abandoned their original family business and become monks, and some have practiced and not left their homes.

Those who have a family and a business can also make some offerings to Buddhism, while most believers rely on Buddhism to make offerings for their lives. Although the personnel seem to be a bit complicated, under the governance of the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas, they are also in order, but they are gradually feeling pressure on expenditure, and there are other sects competing for believers, so Buddhism is not completely free of worries.

At that time, Bodhi, who listened to the sermon under the Hongjun ancestor in his previous life, did not enter the Buddha's door, and turned into a Bodhi tree to turn into a Buddha and pass on his mana, after his cultivation was a positive result, Bodhi has been living and practicing in the Lingtai Fangcun Mountain in the West Niuhe Continent, and in the three-star cave of the oblique moon.

Bodhi resides here, accepts disciples to teach the Dharma, cultivates the mind, and often keeps in touch with Nyolai, and often exchanges the Tao with each other.

On this day, if you have finished teaching the Dharma to the people and arranged all the things, but you have something in your heart that you cannot solve, you will go to the Bodhi place to ask him for advice.

Bodhi, as usual, prepared tea and sat on the fairy stone bench at the entrance of the cave with Rulai.

If you come to see Bodhi's comfortable appearance, you are envious, and say to Bodhi: "It seems that the brothers still have great wisdom and can not be entangled in trivial matters and be at ease." ”

Bodhi smiled: "You are envious of the world after becoming an immortal, but I don't know how many people are admiring your honor." ”

As he said, "My position is the gathering of the spirits of all beings, and I cannot be freed from the trust of all beings. ”

Bodhi said: "Since you have been entrusted by all expectations, your Dharma path has become more and more profound recently, and you can spread the Dharma to the world and use the Buddha's righteousness to govern the heavens and the earth." ”

Rulai said: "Where, no matter how profound the Dao Law is, you can't control the heaven and the earth, if you talk about the person who can control the heaven and the earth here, only that Hongjun Ancestor, back then, you and I still heard the half of the Hongjun Dao Law, so that we can get the law of heaven and earth in this world, and now we can't surpass it no matter what." ”

Bodhi said: "But it's not, when I talk about the things of the year, I can't help but think of it again, only you and I defeated the demons in the battle of Kaitian and the battle of Qiankun to defeat the Tongtian Sect Master, which is the matter of the chaos of water and fire." ”

Rulai said: "Yes, speaking of the original battle of demon subjugation, the strength of you and me won a complete victory, which can be described as a high achievement. Later, because of the matter of fighting for the position of Emperor of Heaven, I did not get it, so I was reincarnated to practice here, but fortunately, Brother Dao enlightened me and achieved my Buddha's law. ”

Bodhi said: "Brother Dao don't have to be polite, you and I are originally from the outside world, and if you cultivate this fruit in this realm, it can be regarded as creation." ”

"Yes! ”

After listening to this, Bodhi couldn't help but sigh.

Bodhi Dao "Brother Dao, now you and I can be on par with the three Qings in terms of Taoism and magic, and have practiced for many years, especially you, who have been reincarnated for the second time, and have led the Buddha's sect, and appointed the four continents, and the public is very wide, but in fact it is only in charge of a Xiniu He Continent in this district. When it comes to your abilities, you should strive for total control, and the scope should be extended to heaven and earth. ”

If you come to listen to what Bodhi said, you understand the meaning of Bodhi.

And Rulai and Bodhi have experienced several lifetimes and eons, and he knows everything about what Rulai thinks in his heart, so a targeted word has already been said in Rulai's heart.

I think that Amitabha and Bodhi came from the endless and distant other realms, and they came to this realm because of fate, which is already extraordinary, and I listened to the ancestor of the opening of the heavens, Hongjun, the ancestor of the heavens, talk about the Tao of this realm, and the two gods of you and me are definitely no less than the three Qings. and won in the battle of opening the heavens and subduing demons, and calmed down the earth-shaking battle of fire and water, it is conceivable that if there was no Amitabha and Bodhi, the ending would be completely different. ”

And now Amitabha Sinde's Bodhi Enlightenment has been reincarnated as Nyolai, and now Nyolai is extraordinary, and he has regained enlightenment, and his mana has been improved even more than at the beginning. And these many years of believers are full of people, although they have received the position of the heavenly palace, in fact, they stand on their own in the western heavens, and no one can look at them equally.

There is only one thing, such as coming and Bodhi and Hongjun ancestors to uphold the principle of Taoist inheritance, the grand ambition is vast, hoping that their morality can be widely spread between heaven and earth, so that it is eternal, even if the future countless calamities can not be true body Yuan Shen eternal, the true body and Yuan Shen carry the Tao will also be eternal, this is generally the common thought of people who have a great way to practice.

Now, there are more and more Buddhist disciples, in addition to the need for more and more use of Buddhism itself, and it is also facing the squeeze and competition of other sects, and it has long been used to promote Buddhism in a wider territory, so that the Buddha's teachings can be spread in the world and can be eternally extended.

Rulai just listened to Bodhi, but nodded silently, Bodhi said: "If it is practical, it is better to directly send your compiled Buddhist scriptures to the Jade Emperor to other continents, spread the Dharma everywhere, and relieve more sufferings of the common people." ”

Rulai said: "No, even if the Jade Emperor does not object, I think that the power of the Sanqing Daomen in other ministries is huge, and it is difficult to match the strength of the Buddhism, how can the Sanqing easily agree to convey the law of my Buddhism." I live in this Western Bliss, although the Heavenly Palace of the Four Continents is sealed with me, and it has nothing to do with Heavenly Court, but Heavenly Court actually does not want to or can not really give all of it to the Buddha Gate to enjoy, and there are still Daomen in the world, even in the West Niuhe Continent where this spiritual mountain is located, the power of Daomen is also trying to expand. ”

After listening to Rulai's statement, Bodhi nodded and said, "That's right, think about the four continents, the realm directly controlled by the Heavenly Court and the Three Qings is also very wide. ”

Rulai said: "These four continents were originally in charge of the four heavenly kings, and later these four heavenly kings were all recruited by the Jade Emperor to the heavenly court to protect the heavenly palace after I was canonized as the leader of the four major continents. If we want to spread the scriptures to the other three continents, we must first obtain the consent of the Jade Emperor, and we must not make arbitrary claims, after all, the Jade Emperor is the lord of the three worlds of heaven and earth, and we must find a sufficient reason for such a great movement; secondly, it is not a day's work to pass on the scriptures and teach the law, and we need to wait for the best time to make selected arrangements to achieve it. ”

After listening to what Rulai said, Bodhi nodded and said, "Yes, if the Jade Emperor is willing to approve the intention of transmitting the Dharma, it must be skillfully arranged before it can be done." ”

"That's the hardest part. Thinking that now the heavens and the earth are basically safe, there is no big change, and the heavenly palace is now stable, and he has begun to take care of himself, if it is not an urgent need, there is no willingness to change, unless there is a threat, there is no reason to make too many changes, and the matter of Buddhism passing on the scriptures must be difficult to be accepted by the heavenly court. ”

Bodhi thought for a while and said, "If you want to preach in other continents, you really need to get the approval of the Jade Emperor first, and if you want the Jade Emperor to approve it, you need to be respected by the Jade Emperor first. ”

Rulai said: "Exactly, and now I have only been teaching the Fa in the Lingshan area for a long time, and I actually don't have much influence on other continents or even this continent far away from Lingshan. Although I have the power of mana, I have not yet been able to use it in front of the Heavenly Court, unless the Heavenly Court needs it, I will have the opportunity to be respected in front of the Heavenly Court Jade Emperor, but it seems that the Court does not have such a need today. ”

Bodhi listened to Ru to explain, while making some plans in his heart, hearing Ru said this, Bodhi smiled and said: "This is reasonable, I think that there is a need in Heaven, and you can play a place." ”

When you hear this, you ask: What is the need?
