Frankly, I'm not qualified to comment on a person's beliefs.
Lu Wenchang believes in the Double-Faced Buddha, which must have helped him in some way, either physically rescued him, or comforted him spiritually.
I didn't take the liberty of denying his beliefs, but followed his words and said, "Listen to you, your wife and children are disabled, this is the result of their previous lives, are they destined to have this calamity?"
” "All the difficulties in this life are the accumulation of evil in the previous life, and the only way to liberate you is to take refuge in my Buddha and wash away your karma."
The man's eyes were calm, and his wife Chang Feifei also looked pious, only Lu Ming, who was not very old, couldn't understand what his father was saying, and lowered his head in distress.
"Believing in the Buddha cleanses your karma?"
I looked at a couple in front of me, from them I saw the whole double Buddha area in miniature, when I visited Li Changgui manor, the richest man in the new Shanghai home also enshrined double-faced Buddha statues, from which it can be speculated that the belief in double-faced Buddha is a very common thing in the double Buddha area.
"The Dharma is so useful that it not only cleanses away sins, but also uplifts your body and mind.
And because it is a double cultivation of blessing and wisdom, doing things with the mentality of benefiting sentient beings, and ultimately benefiting oneself, because it is not selfish, it can become its great selfishness.
"There is some truth in what the man said, but I, who know the roots of the two-faced Buddha, know that the Buddha they believe in is not so perfect.
The Buddha is born with two sides, one side is kind and kind, and the other side is fierce and evil, this Buddha is not the other Buddha.
I looked at the man with a smile: "Let's just talk about washing away our sins, I don't know what big mistakes your wife and children have committed to cause this catastrophe?"
” The man did not speak immediately, he paused for a moment before he said: "Don't talk about my family, just use myself as an example, when I was a child, I had a stubborn personality, I went into the water to fish, and when I caught it, I threw it on the shore, and let it be sunburned; Go up the mountain to catch a bamboo mouse, cut off its tail, put it together with the domestic cat, watch it be played to death, but I stand aside and clap my hands, now I think about it, this is all evil, I still inadvertently commit countless evils in life, these evil thoughts have been tormenting me, but since I believe in my Buddha, everything has changed greatly, I no longer feel depressed, my soul has been purified, uphold a good heart. ” "What you say sounds ridiculous to me, but the Buddha you believe in must have said that all living beings are equal, and in a sense, you are the same living beings as the bamboo rats and crucian carp that are tortured by you.
But you tortured them to death in the most brutal way, they lost their lives, and you just had to recite a few words of Amitabha Buddha casually to remove your karma?
Is this fair?
Is this what the Buddha said about the equality of all beings?
I smiled faintly: "The reason why you can believe in the Buddha and find solace in your soul is that you are stronger than bamboo rats and crucian carp, and you have not killed the people who have bullied you because human beings have a perfect system, and you have not killed tigers and sharks because you are weak and have no ability to kill them."
Natural selection, what a simple truth, you have to mix it with Buddhism and find a high-sounding reason to excuse it, so you are not the murderer of bamboo rats and crucian carp?
” With a wave of anger on the man's face, I didn't give him a chance to speak, and continued: "You said that the defects in his wife and son are the evil accumulated in his previous life, but can you be sure that people have a past life?
That's just an illusion that your Buddha believes in that can never be proven, and it is deliberately propagated to cater to a certain need in your heart.
I don't deny that there is a true Buddha in the world, but the Buddha you believe in is just a false Buddha. ” When Lu Wenchang heard this, he clenched his fists and stood up directly from his seat, he pointed at me with one hand, if Chang Feifei tried his best to stop him, it is estimated that he would have punched me: "You have never believed in my Buddha, how can you slander!"
” "I haven't seen a Buddha you believe in, but I know that a belief that takes advantage of people with disabilities to seek solace is despicable!
He seems to have found a reason to numb yourself for your flaws, but in fact he is just using you as a tool.
The Buddha you believe in is not tall, he will not really help you, only you are the master of your inner life.
All people's lives are firmly in their own hands, and the disability on the body is not terrible, but the betrayal and compromise of the soul.
"I tried hard to make them sober up, because I knew very well that the proportion of people with disabilities in the Twin Buddha District was ten or twenty times that of other urban areas, which was extremely abnormal, and that their presence was probably not accidental, but part of the Two-Faced Buddha Project.
"Ignorant people, talking nonsense, if you slander my Buddha again, don't blame me for being unkind."
Lu Wenchang was grabbed by Chang Feifei with one hand, and his pale face looked a little hideous at this time.
"Didn't your Buddha tell you to be kind to others and not to be brave and ruthless?
Sit down, you and I are just discussing, and I don't completely dismiss what you mean.
"I was afraid that Lu Wenchang would attract the flight attendant, so I persuaded him well, and I was relieved after he sat down.
"I don't care about you, the Buddha is in my heart, no matter how much you slander, you can't change my heart to the Buddha."
Lu Wenchang's tone was firm, he seemed very pitiful to me, according to my guess, the real murderer who caused the disability of his wife and children may be the Double-faced Buddha, and his devout belief is the real culprit who caused the disaster.
Finding that there were still signs that I was going to quarrel with the man, Chang Feifei quickly grabbed her husband and gestured at me with sign language.
I didn't know sign language, so I was confused, but Lu Wenchang and Lu Ming saw the father and son, and their eyes became gentle.
"What do these gestures mean?"
Finding that I was a little dazed, Lu Wenchang was not ready to talk to me, snorted coldly, gently hugged Chang Feifei, and also communicated in sign language.
"So grudges?"
I still underestimated the influence of faith on a person, Lu Wenchang was reluctant to talk to me, I turned my head to look at his child, reached out and patted Lu Ming's shoulder: "Little guy, what did your mother just say?"
” The little boy shrunk his neck, glanced at his father timidly, and then whispered: "Mom is apologizing to you for Dad, I hope you don't hurt your peace." ” He raised his round little face: "Actually, my dad is very good, he has never lost his temper because of these little problems in me and my mother, and has always taken good care of me and my mother......"
From the children's mouth, I learned everything about this family.
Chang Feifei was born with nerve compression and lost her speech function, while Lu Ming's right arm was amputated because he was playing with a friend on the roof of a bungalow when he was five years old, and accidentally fell, and his right forearm was penetrated by steel bars, causing a serious laceration wound.
Lu Ming's matter has always been a pain in his father's heart, and it is precisely because of Lu Ming's accident that Lu Wenchang began to believe in the Double-Faced Buddha, trying to use the illusory Buddha to forgive himself and let the guilt in his heart dissipate.
Through Lu Ming's narration, the life of this family of three was presented in front of me, and the ups and downs were only known to the parties concerned, but there were also some things that moved me.
For example, Lu Ming's right arm was amputated, and he exercised his left hand to write and eat, in order to accompany him and not hurt this young child, Lu Wenchang and Chang Feifei, the parents, have since begun to exercise their left hand, and every time they eat, the family of three uses their left hand to hold chopsticks to pick up vegetables.

There are many details of life like this, and the warmth of bits and pieces is combined to make up their lives.
This is an optimistic, strong family, and I didn't want to hurt them anymore, but my conscience tells me that they shouldn't have been, and that they deserve a better life, instead of sitting with me on this train to Hades.
I sighed, distracted myself and put myself in the calmest possible state, analyzing the family's situation from beginning to end.
Lu Wenchang and Chang Feifei are loyal believers in the Double-Faced Buddha, and the turning point of their belief in the Double-Faced Buddha is in Lu Ming, if Lu Ming had not had an accident, their family's living situation would definitely be much better than now.
"A five-year-old child was playing with a friend on the roof of a bungalow, and then accidentally fell, and happened to be pierced by steel bars in his right arm, and this matter smelled of conspiracy no matter how you think about it."
