Chapter 90: The Pavilion of the Scriptures

"Uncle Budai, are you back?"

Facing the uncle Budai monk who had been traveling for several months and had just returned, Jiang Liuer was really a little surprised.

"Yes, didn't Uncle Ben just come back, and I heard the elders praise you!" said with a smile, the Budai monk said with a smile, he has always been very arrogant, uninhibited, and does not regard himself as an elder in front of the younger generation, but is a little familiar with the younger generation.

"What did Master say?" Jiang Liu'er asked tentatively.

"It's not that you have insisted on doing hands-shaking exercises for more than half a year, senior brother has praised your tenacity and perseverance, hahaha!" Monk Budai laughed heartily.

"Uncle Shi has won the award. Jiang Liu'er also smiled.

"Let's go, Jiang Liu'er, today Uncle Shi will take you to the Scripture Pavilion, I told the elder. The Budai monk smiled and looked at Jiang Liu'er and said.

"Okay!" When you go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, you can read all the Buddhist classics, which naturally makes Jiang Liuer very happy.

While speaking, the two uncles climbed the stairs from the right side of the Daxiong Treasure Hall and walked towards the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion high in the back.

This Jinshan Temple is built according to the mountain, the temple and the temple are connected with each other, the pavilions and pavilions are connected one after another, the whole temple building is tightly wrapped in the mountain, forming a unique "temple wrapped in the mountain" style, the cloth bag monk, Jiang Liuer walks in the temple, climbs the ladder and climbs the stairs, almost does not feel the existence of the mountain.

After a while, I looked up and saw the eaves high, the two-storey "Tibetan Scripture Pavilion", the two uncles climbed the stairs and came to the front of the building of the Zangjing Pavilion, the cloth bag monk explained the intention to the monk on duty in the Zangjing Pavilion, the monk on duty should be palmed, and the two uncles were introduced into the Zangjing Pavilion.

The attic is a row of six-bay two-storey timber-framed buildings, facing north and south, with windows open at the front and back. Upstairs through six rooms for a large unified room, the middle is separated by a bookcase, scriptures, classics are placed in the bookcase, in the middle of the former Jiangzhou County Shou inscription "Tibetan Scripture Pavilion" plaque. Three of the downstairs rooms are connected as a central hall, and on both sides hang couplets inscribed by literati and scholars.

The Budai monk and Jiang Liu'er walked in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, looking at the dazzling and antique scriptures and classics in the building, Jiang Liu'er's eyes showed excitement, just like a child suddenly saw a lot of exquisite food.

Seeing that the two of them were dizzying to visit the book collection, the monk on duty saw the opportunity and introduced: "Uncle and Xuanzang, this is the scripture pavilion of my Jinshan Temple." This pavilion has been accumulated and collected by the abbots and elders for many years, and there are many scriptures and classics donated in the name of my Jinshan Temple, and now it is already a grand view, and there are more than 20,000 volumes of scriptures and classics in the collection......"

Hearing this, the Budai monk couldn't help but interject and said to Jiang Liu'er: "Many of these scriptures and classics are carved and copied by the previous dynasty, and many of them are still the only ones of my dynasty, which are priceless, and they are rare in my Tang Dynasty!"

Jiang Liu'er nodded hurriedly and sighed, "Yes, Uncle Shi." With such a sweaty book, coupled with the quiet and elegant environment here, it will inevitably make people who are immersed in the scene and obsessed with reading the scriptures happy and forgetful. As he spoke, Jiang Liu'er picked up a manuscript of "The Treatise on the Mahayana", with a look of love on his face, and at the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a beautifully bound "Great Nirvana Sutra", and suddenly showed a look of joy on his face......

"Xuanzang, don't be busy, you can read all the scriptures here, read them slowly, don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. Seeing that Jiang Liu'er looked intoxicated and impatient, the cloth bag monk laughed.

So, in the next two months, in addition to her daily homework, Jiang Liuer devoted all her remaining time and energy to studying the Buddhist scriptures seriously, reading them late at night, and carefully recording the experience of reading the scriptures with a pen.

Mahayana Treatise

The Misabhidharma Treatise

The Lengyan Sutra

The Lotus Sutra

......

"Subodhi! If someone holds the Seven Jewels of the Immeasurable Monk World, if there is a good man or a good woman who develops bodhicitta and holds this sutra or even the four verses, and recites it and gives a speech to others, he will be blessed with more blessings than others. What is a speech for a person, not taken from the appearance, such as not moving. "All things are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such" The Buddha said that it was a sutra, and the elder Subo mentioned that all the bhikshus, bhikshunis, upasaks, upasas, all the worlds, heavens, people, and asuras, heard what the Buddha said, and they were all overjoyed and believed in it. ”

Jiang Liu'er gently recited the "Diamond Sutra" with great devotion, and when he read "There is no self, no one, no beings, and no longevity." When I read this sentence, my mind suddenly became clear, and when I read it, "Everything has a way, like a dream bubble, like dew and electricity, and it should be viewed as such." At that time, Jiang Liu'er had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and there was a bang, but it was suddenly realized at the moment.

"A Buddha is an enlightened being. Jiang Liuer sighed: "What the Buddha Shakyamuni said is indeed true. ”

"Realization and mental understanding are mutually exclusive, and if I am to achieve Taoism, I must practice both physically and mentally. Jiang Liu'er gently closed the scripture and thought to herself.

At about midnight, Jiang Liu'er turned out the lights, unbuttoned his clothes, and lay down on the bed to rest.

In a trance, a beautiful shadow appeared like a shock, Jiang Liu'er took a closer look, and saw her goose-egg face, slender body, white skin and beauty, but it turned out to be Li Rong'er's girl, Li Rong'er has not been seen for many days, but unlike in the past, today's Li Rong'er has exquisite makeup, a bumpy body, and a more mature body, which seems to be much more delicate than in the past.

At that time, Miss Li Rong'er pointed directly at Jiang Liu'er's smooth head with a Qianqian jade finger, and said unceremoniously: "I said Brother Jiang Liu'er, are you addicted to this monk?

"This, I ......" At first glance at Li Rong'er, Jiang Liu'er didn't know how to answer.

While speaking, Li Rong'er came with small steps, and her slender body gradually approached, but she forced the tall Jiang Liu'er all the way to the bedside, Li Rong'er's delicate nose almost touched the tip of Jiang Liu'er's straight nose, and a pungent fragrance penetrated into the nasal cavity without saying anything, Jiang Liu'er was a little confused at the moment, and her mind was also a little flustered, and she didn't dare to look at Li Rong'er's charming eyes.

Seeing this, Li Rong'er suddenly sneered. "Brother Jiang Liu'er, how can you become a monk and a Buddha with such a qualitative character?" After that, a pink carved jade hand reached over, gently caressing Jiang Liuer's angular and handsome face, the jade hand that touched the face was a little cool, but there was also a delicate and gentle in it. At this time, Jiang Liu'er's heart was in turmoil, and she didn't know how to deal with the things in front of her, but she kept silently reciting a long passage of scriptures in her heart, and then recited it after reading it......

The picture flashed, and Jiang Liuer's mind showed the scene of the day's shaving again. When Elder Fa Ming shaved his ordination, he asked him with a very grim face: "Today, when you shave as a monk, you must strictly abide by the precepts of Buddhism, sincerely worship the Buddha, and stay away from the worldly world from now on, don't you regret it?"

"No regrets!" Jiang Liu'er's tone at that time was very firm.

"Do you know that making a vow in front of the Buddha is not child's play? Otherwise, you will be sent to the eighteen layers of hell and fall into the sea of suffering, from which you will never recover. ”

"Disciple understands!"

"Amitabha! That's it. ”

Jiang Liu'er lifted off the wide monk's robe and knelt in front of Elder Fa Ming, about to bow reverently, ready to receive the official ordination.

At this time, Li Rong'er, who came out of nowhere, suddenly rushed over, accompanied by a series of terrible screams: "Brother Jiang Liu'er, don't shave!

The monks in the main hall looked sideways, and Jiang Liu'er suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and suddenly sat up from the bed, but it turned out to be Nan Ke's dream!
