Chapter 241: The Earth Immortals have a similar kind of hall, and the language of the Marriage Dharma is amazing!
At this time, there are two ways in the world, high monks and great virtues, high truthful Taoists, and opening the altar to preach the Fa.
One is to have a puja. Normally, this kind of puja is not allowed to be attended by outsiders who are not instructed. Because this kind of puja usually talks about two things, one is the method of cultivating tantra, and the other is the precepts. Neither of these will be passed on. It doesn't hurt for the monks to listen to it.
The other one, which can also be called a puja, is generally about the worldly truths, the stories of the scriptures. And some easy-to-understand, home-based methods. Teach to the people of the world and exhort them to be good and approachable.
The first type of puja is usually held in monasteries or in some ashrams. The essence of the latter is to enlighten wisdom and dispel foolishness. Therefore, it is natural to choose a place with a lot of people, and the more lively the place, the better.
And this Pingtian Great Sage, the place where the Dharma meeting was held, was in the middle of the market, in front of the Drunken Crane Tower.
Shi Zixuan and the two monsters also listened to the truth, and arrived at the place where the Dharma meeting was held, heh. Good guy, it's really a sea of people, inside and out, all of them are people.
A high platform was erected in the middle, and a high pillar was erected in the middle, on which hung a large banner with a few words written on it:
The Great Sage of Pingtian gave a lecture on the Great Dharma of Connection.
At this time, on this stage, there was no ordinary sage, but two boys holding the dust and standing on the platform.
Xiong Dahei frowned and said, "Master, we are late, we don't have a good seat, we can't see clearly." ”
Shi Zixuan smiled when he heard this: "I can't see clearly, so let's find a good seat." I look at this restaurant, the building is high, we climb up and look down, we should be able to see clearly. ”
This drunken crane tower is six stories high, condescending, and can indeed take everything into the eyes. It's just that the distance is a little far, but I'm afraid that I can't hear the sound clearly. But for Shi Zixuan and the two monsters, as well as Di Ting, it is naturally not a problem.
The four of them went up to the Drunken Crane Tower, and there happened to be a seat on the top floor. Shi Zixuan ordered a seat outside. The three of them made it and ordered some pastries and tea.
"Three guest officers, please use it slowly. The man brought the refreshments, but Shi Zixuan grabbed him and asked, "Little brother, please ask a question." ”
The guy laughed, "Do you have any questions for me?"
Shi Zixuan said, "I've heard that someone is going to have a Dharma meeting outside today? Do you know what's going on?"
The guy laughed, "Yes." Know. The Great Sage of Pingtian held a great puja. ”
Shi Zixuan asked, "I don't know what the origin of this Pingtian Great Sage is?"
The guy said, "I don't know about this little one." But these days, there are always many high-ranking people, who are either holding Dharma meetings or giving people life-saving treatments. ”
Shizi Xuanqi said: "Oh, yes, there are a lot of people?"
The guy said, "Of course." I've heard that. Recently, the Son of Heaven decreed that a waterway puja would be held, and those who practiced would come to participate. This is the same as our old master, who doesn't want to get a good ranking? But some people have a long reputation, so naturally they will not show up easily, but those whose reputation is usually not exposed will naturally have to fight their own reputation. ”
Shi Zixuan listened to the music. said, "Man, you know a lot." ”
The guy said a little smugly, "That's right." In my hometown, I have seen a lot of such people. ”
Shi Zixuan said with interest: "Oh, what kind of person is it? ”
The man said: "There is an old lady in my hometown, who is a top immortal. It's very capable. He claims that he can walk the yin and yang, and solve problems for others. But at that time, the great immortal stood up, and the old lady took him to make his debut. No one would believe it. So the great immortal borrowed the population and talked about the privacy of a few families. A few more with stubborn diseases. Lang Zhong couldn't see Haode people, and he was cured. Since then, people who have come to his house to inquire. It's more. ”
Shi Zixuan nodded and said, "This is to show the Tao to win the trust of others. ”
When Xiong Dahei heard this, he quacked and said, "Isn't it just a cure? It can be regarded as a manifestation of the Tao? It's just some yellow tricks, my second brother, but he is the best at this." ”
Shi Zixuan was surprised: "Oh, Zhang Qing, you still know how to heal?"
Zhang Qing nodded and said, "Alien cultivators like me, because few people can get the correction method, so more or less, they will get some side door techniques. We are immortals, if you are looking for people to stand at the entrance of the hall, python fairies and snake fairies, most of them are to see a doctor and go to the disease. Huangxian and Ma Xian mostly show people hexagrams to solve things. The fox fairy is mostly a protector. If it is a ghost fairy, it is mostly a yin and a yang. As for the upper immortal, that is Pudu, much stronger than us. ”
The earth immortals that Zhang Qing said were different from the earth immortals that cultivators said.
The earth immortal in his mouth refers to the cultivation of different people on the ground, and it is generally not self-cultivation, but looking for people who are destined to set up a hall and borrow people to show the Tao.
There are many such earth immortals, with different temperaments and different preferences.
Some people take the precepts to treat people and solve problems, but generally do not ask for money, but only a few sips of wine and a few incense sticks.
And those who do not keep the precepts are not afraid of harming the Tao, so there is nothing to be afraid of, and they will help others do good things and bad things, take people's money, and eliminate disasters with others.
There are many such immortals in the Qingwei Cave Heaven.
Moreover, when the day pointed to the moon Xuanguang Cave Grand Fa, the three precepts of walking in the land red dust set up by the patriarch were set for these people. The little immortals in other dojos, the patriarch can't control it, but as long as he thinks that he is from the Qingwei Cave Heaven, he must keep the precepts and not act recklessly.
The guy from the drunken crane tower listened to Zhang Qing and Xiong Dahei talking, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing this, Shi Zixuan hurriedly said, "Man, it's okay here, you can go down and get busy." ”
The guy scratched his head and gave a few strange glances before turning away.
Shi Zixuan said to the two monsters: "Walking outside, some things in the cultivation world should be said less, otherwise it will cause people to be confused and suspicious, and it will be very inappropriate." ”
When the second monster heard this, he hurriedly said, "Master, we know." ”
Shi Zixuan now has the intention to take this opportunity to set up a ring for the two monsters, but here and now, it is not appropriate. Just then, there was movement below.
On the high platform, I don't know when, a person has already sat down.
But when I saw this person, he was neither Taoist nor Buddha, and he was wearing a strange costume. That robe, which looked like a Taoist robe, was bright red rouge color, and it looked very fancy. Moreover, this person is extremely thin and tall, with a golden crown on his head, and he looks like an upstart, not like a cultivator.
Although Shi Zixuan does not judge people by their appearance. But looking at this person's outfit, it should not be a person from the two families of Buddhism and Taoism, but a person from the left side.
As soon as this person appeared, there was an uproar in the audience. The boy on the side hurriedly shouted: "The Great Sage wants to start teaching Dafa, wait and be quiet!"
This sound is really good, and the people below don't speak.
Seeing this, the Great Sage smiled slightly and said, "This is the third time I have come to Yujing to give a lecture. There are a lot of familiar faces down there. That's nice. Ask, you weishenme come to listen to the old Taoist teachings?"
There was a bold person in the audience, and he suddenly said, "Great Sage, I have heard of you preaching the Fa twice before. I don't know why. On weekdays, I went to listen to the lectures of Taoist monks, and I was so confused that I wanted to sleep. But if you listen to the Fa, you will be able to understand it. I still want to listen to it, and then I come again. ”
Someone else said, "Great Sage, you are a good person. Not only to reason with us. Give us back the medicine charm. My mother has had eye diseases for many years, and she has spent a lot of money and found a lot of Langzhong, but she is not optimistic. Drink your potion rune water. It was fine immediately. I'm here today to talk to you about Xiexie instead of my old mother. ”
Someone speaks, and someone agrees. There are many. Babbling began. Most of them are praises and thanks to this great sage.
When the Great Sage heard this, he seemed to be very happy. said with a smile: "I am very relieved to listen to the words of the big guy." Good, good, good. Those who can listen to me explain the Fa are all destined people. If you can come here and listen to my teachings, no matter if you get actual benefits or anything else, even if you reap happiness, you will not be in vain for me to come once. ”
The crowd below was stunned. Shi Zixuan on the drunken crane tower listened, but was slightly surprised. Before he came, he heard people talk about the name of this great sage, and he had a preconceived idea that this person was a liar, but when he saw this person speak, he didn't look like it.
Di Ting lay on Shi Zixuan's shoulder, and also said, "This person seems to be a bit of a Taoist." ”
Shi Zixuan said, "Isn't Venerable Able to Hear People's Hearts? Why don't you listen to it?"
Di glanced at him and said, "Don't encourage me, you kid." I can do it, but this is not the Dharma realm, but the world, and if I eavesdrop on it, I'm afraid that he will also find out and cause trouble for no reason, so I don't bother to do it. ”
Shi Zixuan also replied: "Is Venerable still afraid of getting into trouble?"
Di listened to Hehe laughed twice, but did not respond.
Next, I heard the great sage of Pingtian say, "The last time I gave a lecture on the Fa at the Fa meeting, someone always came up and knelt down and kowtowed to me. At that time, I was strange, I am not God, and I am not your parents, are you doing this? I was curious, so I asked those people, you weishenme want to do this? Those people told me, saying that I was a living immortal, and if I helped them, they were going to kneel and kowtow to me.
Ladies and gentlemen, I didn't like it at the time. I'm here to teach the Fa, in fact, just to get married. This bond is a mutual affair between you and me. We are all equal. I have passed on my word to you, and you have inherited it, and I have gained it. And I'm not an immortal, even if I'm a true immortal, what do you want to kowtow to?"
As soon as the words of the Great Sage fell, the following suddenly exploded.
Someone asked in a loud voice, "Great Sage." You're not right. ”
The Great Sage of Pingtian asked, "What I said is wrong?" ”
The man said, "We worship the gods, what's wrong?" When we go to Taoist temples and monasteries, and worship Buddha statues and Taoist statues, don't we all have to kowtow respectfully? ”
When the Great Sage heard this, he shook his head again and again: "It's not good, it's not good." No, no. You're not doing a good job. Weishenme wants to worship them? They are for you to eat. Or do you want to dress you? If you want me to say, if you want to worship, it is better to worship this God, because God is born to feed people. It is better for you to go and worship the earth, for it gives you room to live, and to produce grain and bread, so that you may live. What are you doing if you don't worship the heavens, you don't worship the earth, you don't worship the gods and Buddhas?"
After the Great Sage of Pingtian finished speaking, there was silence below, and many people listened to it and thought about it carefully. Seems to be the case!(To be continued......)
