The little monk said slowly, and then closed the side door.When Xiao Hongyun heard the words of the little monk, he didn't come back to his senses for a long time."
Invite the Buddha ceremony," Xiao Hongyun muttered a few words at this moment.As a Buddhist believer, I am naturally clear about the ritual of inviting Buddha.Please Buddha, generally only when the temple is first built, will be held, this Youmin Temple has existed for so many years, at this time, the temple is closed, please Buddha.This news made Xiao Hongyun not react for a long time.However, this is not the most shocking.What really shocked him was that all the people who were able to hold the ceremony of inviting Buddha were all eminent monks, and ordinary monks could not carry out this ceremony.It can be said that there is no qualification."
Master Xumu is not qualified to hold the Buddha invitation ceremony, is there a high monk coming," Xiao Hongyun muttered.It was at this time that the sides of the temple opened again.From a distance, a young man in a white shirt walked slowly.The young man, who looked to be in his twenties, carried a worn-out white backpack.Eyebrows are clear.Walking step by step, such a young man, very ordinary, placed on the road, inconspicuous.The sides of the temple slowly opened.A few monks came out from the side, led by the master Xumu who was talking to him just now."
Amitabha, Lord Su Shi is here" Master Xumu shouted a Buddha call and took a step forward.Greeted Su Jiu.Yes, this young man in a white shirt is Su Jiu."
I'm tired of Master Xumu.I also greeted the kid personally. ”Su Jiu said politely."
Master Su, let's enter the temple, the hour is almost up, everything is ready" Master Xumu let go with one hand, signaling Su Jiu to enter the temple gate first."
Okay" Su Jiu nodded, there was no excuse, there was no need to talk about the priority at this time, and he took a step.Walk forward.Under Xiao Hongyun's gaze, a group of people, from the side door.Entered the temple.The side door of the temple slowly closed."
Who is this young man, and he can actually let Master Xumu come to greet him in person," Xiao Hongyun's mind was suddenly full of doubts.Inside Youmin Temple.In front of the bronze statue of the Big Buddha.Su Jiuqian stood up.Before the Buddha statue, the monks of the whole temple had already gathered at this moment.With Su Jiu as the center.Before the bronze statue of the Big Buddha.A yellow cloth covered the sacrificial table.The three pillars of incense are rising.A low bell rang throughout the temple.The thousand-year-old bell of Youmin Temple rang in this bustling downtown area.The ringing of nine bells did not stop after one or two rings, and the bells continued.Ten and fifty sounds, "What's the matter, how did the ancient bell ring in Youmin Temple", "I don't know", "How many years, and the bell has never rang more than nine times." ”"Yes, I don't know what happened in Youmin Temple" Some old people who were exercising in the early morning and morning exercised near Youmin Temple heard this bell.Immediately, I was puzzled.Youmin Temple, which has a history of more than 1,500 years, is easy not to ring the bell.Now.When the bell rang in the temple, something big must have happened.Almost everyone who heard the bell was drawn to it.Xiao Hongyun at the door was also shocked at this moment."
Look at this situation, this is rushing to a hundred and eight sounds, it seems that it is really a monk who has attained the Tao to invite the Buddha, it is really to invite the Buddha, and there will definitely be a true Buddha coming today.""
No, I have to think of something to go in" Xiao Hongyun spun around a few times in place, muttering in his mouth."
Dad, let's go have breakfast first" Xiao Kang was confused for a while, he didn't hear what his father said clearly, but he felt a little hungry, and then proposed."
Xiaokang, you go by yourself, dad still has something to do" Xiao Hongyun heard this and motioned for his son to go first.The bell continued, reaching Xiao Hongyun's ears, and the sound entered his heart.He knew very well in his heart that this was obviously going to be the ringing of a hundred and eight bells.It is normal for a temple bell to ring, but it is basically impossible to ring a bell with one hundred and eight bells.To put it simply, without the Great Buddha Fate, you can't meet this kind of bell that rings one hundred and eight times.Xiao Hongyun's name in his heart is Abi, the Buddha bell is the Buddha bell, as the name suggests, it is used for the temple to do Buddhist things, or to gather monks to go to the temple, chant scriptures to do homework, and other things such as getting up, sleeping, eating, etc.Therefore, different bells are rung for different purposes.But there are also a lot of attention to ringing the bell, "the big bell jungle order is also the beginning."
Dawn is to break the long night, and the alarm sleeps; The twilight strike is faint and ignorant. ”Generally, the bell will not ring more than nine times on weekdays.And this one hundred and eight sounds has a special meaning.The rule of one hundred and eight is related to "nine", because in ancient China, it was believed that "nine" had a very high and auspicious meaning.And the twelve times of "nine" is exactly "one hundred and eight", which pushes the artistic conception of "nine" to the extreme.According to Buddhism, nine is the extreme.One hundred and eight, what is represented is the extreme, that is, all living beings.It's like one hundred and eight arhats, one hundred and eight martial arts, and so on.The Buddhist bell is used for prayer, enlightenment, and transcendence of sentient beings.The bell of the monastery is mostly struck once in the morning and dusk.Right now, this bell is regular.Xiao Hongyun knows some rules of Buddhism very well, and there is nothing special about this bell ringing in the ears of ordinary people.But, in his ears, he knocked eighteen times tightly, eighteen times slowly, and eighteen more times unhurriedly, and repeated twice, for a total of one hundred and eight times.Right now, it's been fifty-four times, and if you do another cycle, it's one hundred and eight.As for why the bell should be set at one hundred and eight times, there are two theories: one version is: "Whenever the bell strikes one hundred and eight rings to correspond to the December month, the twenty-four solar terms, seventy-two and five days as a wait." ”It is one hundred and eight, which symbolizes the reincarnation of a year, and the days are eternal.This shows that in an agrarian society, people wanted to be blessed with abundant food and clothing through the Buddha.Another theory is that Buddhism believes that people have one hundred and eight kinds of afflictions, and one hundred and eight knocks can relieve them.Ringing the bell, he said: "When you hear the bell, your troubles are light; Wisdom is long, Bodhi is born; Out of hell, out of the pit of fire; May I become a Buddha and save all sentient beings. ”So, chanting sutras or mantras one hundred and eight times, Buddha beads are one hundred and eight, and even bodhisattvas are one hundred and eight, all of which are to eliminate people's troubles and achieve excellent and auspicious meanings.The bell rings one hundred and eight times to get rid of the troubles of the world, and it is called "one hundred and eight bells" in Buddhism.In general, monasteries beat the bell and drum every morning and dusk, which is called the morning bell and dusk drum, to warn practitioners to be diligent and diligent and not to let go.At this time, Xiao Hongyun's heart moved.s：s； It's the end of the month, hurry up, come and ask for a monthly pass:
