Chapter Seventy-Four: A Dream in the Void


Chapter 74: A Dream in the Void "From the top to non-non-thinking, down to the endless land, there are three thousand great thousand, the world is vast and far away, and no one can understand it."

Zen Master Buyi clasped his hands together, shook his head slightly, and when he saw the Toutuo's doubts, he added: "Everyone has a heart, and if he has a heart, he will Thoughtful; Hell and heaven are all born from thoughts.

Therefore, the three realms are only the mind, and all laws are only consciousness.

If a single thought does not arise, the six paths will be eliminated and reincarnation will be eliminated.

The precepts themselves are set for us to practice Buddhism.

If you have no distracting thoughts, Where are the precepts?”

Liu Qingyuan was secretly surprised when he heard this.

In fact, Su Shu had already met him before he came, and even gave him some backup.

At first, Liu Qingyuan didn't believe Su Shu's words that he was undoubtedly one of the most eminent monks in Zen Buddhism.

After all, a person who would come to seize other people's incense must be connected with eminent monks and great virtues in universal values.

But listening to his words, Liu Qingyuan knew that at least in practice, he did not doubt the apparently profound Buddhist samadhi.

According to the tone of Buddhism in this universe, the heart is the foundation, all Buddhism originates from the heart, and the Buddha is only an awakened person with a perfect soul.

Therefore, the so-called Buddhist precepts themselves exist to purify the soul.

There is a very interesting story in Buddhism to explain the relationship between precepts and the soul.

An old monk was traveling around with a young monk.

One day they passed by a fast-flowing river and saw a young woman who wanted to cross the river but did not dare to cross.

The old monk took the initiative to carry his daughter across the river.

Once he reached the shore, he put the woman down and continued on his way with the young monk.

Along the way, the young monk couldn't help but mutter: What's wrong with Master, he dared to carry a woman across the river?

The little monk walked and thought all the way, but finally couldn't help it and asked his master: "Master, why do you carry a woman on your back?

Is this a violation of the precepts?"

When the old monk heard this, he sighed: "I have given up long ago, but you still can't let go."

As the story says, since you have let go, how can you persist?

Because your heart is concerned, you need to be restrained by the precepts.

But when you really face someone in need of help, do you still want to stick to that commandment and not help?

So, is it you who feels guilty and does not violate the precepts in your behavior, or is it you who helps others and violates the precepts in your behavior?

Obviously, the Buddhist Zen Master in front of him belongs to the latter.

His view of the precepts also regards them as a form.

Perhaps he recognized the role of the precepts in Buddhist practice in the early days, but did not recognize that the precepts occupied the role of Buddhist practice. absolute dominance.

"If your thoughts like this are heard by people from the Vinaya Sect, they will cause trouble."

"They like to make trouble, just let them, I can just be myself," Busuo answered with a smile, clasping his hands together.

Liu Qingyuan shook his head.

As one of the five major Buddhist lines in Jiuzhou, the Vinaya Sect focuses on the study and transmission of precepts.

It is divided into four disciplines: precepts, precepts body, precepts conduct, and precepts.

The precepts refer to the precepts determined by the Buddha.

According to ancient Buddhist legends, various precepts were formulated to restrain the monks during his lifetime.

At the first Buddhist gathering, Upali recited the Vinaya, Later, because various Buddhist schools had different understandings of the precepts, the precepts they taught were also different.

Then precepts refers to the practice of precepts, that is, the observance of precepts and the tempering of oneself.

Then the precepts are the manifestations or regulations of the precepts, which are commonly known as the five precepts, the ten precepts, the two hundred and fifty precepts, etc.

The final precept is the main doctrine of Vinaya.

The body of the precepts can be called "no action" or "no expression".

It is the dharma body that occurs when the disciples receive the precepts from the teacher and receive them in their own hearts.

That is to say, the practice of acceptance constitutes a psychological function of preventing evil and evil.

This is the core theory of the legal system.

To put it bluntly, some of the practices of Vinaya are based on precepts.

It is best for every word and deed to perfectly comply with the precepts.

In their view, unquestionable words must be the heretics among heretics.

If one is not good, it will turn into a dispute between Taoism and Taoism. possible.

Regarding Liu Qingyuan's performance, Zen Master did not doubt that he did not mind.

He lowered his head slightly and said: "We will accept this bet."

"I will definitely not disappoint the Zen master."

Liu Qingyang smiled, raised his hand, and a wisp of moonlight emerged, and a seal script rose up from it.

The light in the seal script was hazy and illusory.

Unsuspecting, the Zen master watched and saw that it was colorful.

When he was submerged above Toutuo's head, he still had some instinctive resistance, but he seemed to trust the Zen Master more, and soon relaxed his mind, letting the power contained in the seal script quickly fill his mind.

The glory is flowing, and the mortal world is in various forms, but it is a life experienced in a dream.

There is a saying: Since I left my hair and went to the Zen forest, I have searched for the strong man thousands of miles away.

He carries a thousand pounds on his arms and carries great strength, and he is born with a murderous heart.

Bullying the Buddha, drinking Guanyin, the sword is cold and the Zen staff is cold Buyi and Liu Qingyuan looked at Toutuo, his eyes were dim at first, the aura of the mortal world gradually rose, and then his eyes showed a fierce light.

Finally, he became calm again, shouted loudly, and started to chant: "I have never practiced good deeds in my life, I only like to kill people and set things on fire.

Suddenly I opened the golden door.

Rope, break the jade lock here.

Hey, the tide comes from the Qiantang River, and you will know who I am today."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist."

Toutuo clasped his hands together, bowed slightly to Liu Qingyuan, and then kowtowed to Zen Master Buyi and said, "I have met the teacher."

"You saved me in the past, but today I save you, but it is a cycle of cause and effect.

I wonder if you have a Dharma name."

Zen Master Fuduo did not look like he had lost the bet at all, but was smiling all over his face.

Toutuo touched his head and said with the same smile: "I got a Dharma name in my dream called Zhi Shen, but I'm used to hearing it, so let's use this one."

"That's fine."

Zen Master Buyi smiled, turned to Liu Qingyuan and said, "I'm a poor monk willing to admit defeat."

After saying that, he took Monk Zhishen to the temple where Biyun Blessed Land was located.

He didn't know what he said to the temple blessing, but he just stayed in the temple.

Looking at the master and apprentice who entered the temple, Liu Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He was about to turn around and leave, but saw another ray of moonlight emerge.

He stood firm, bowed slightly, and saluted the moonlight.

Said: "I have met the emperor" "What do you think?"

Su Shu's voice came from it.

Liu Qingyuan thought for a while and sighed: "Just as the emperor said, he is an accomplished monk."

"Then how many people do you think there are in Buddhism like this?"

Liu Qingyuan frowned, somewhat confused about Su Shu's question, but he still thought for a moment and replied: "Buddhist cultivation of the mind should have a large number of people."

"Then, how many people have worries that can be exploited like this?"

Su Shu asked again.

Liu Qingyuan vaguely grasped the key point and said hesitantly: "If it's 10 to 20, it's very lucky."

"Yes, not doubting master and disciple this time can actually be regarded as Buddhism's show of goodwill to me and Xuandu, and it can also be regarded as their explanation to you."

"Then" Liu Qingyuan felt a little angry, pointing at the banned Biyun Blessed Land, and asked: "Who is the owner of this place?"

"The owner of this place" Su Shu smiled and asked, "How could there ever be an owner of this place?"

When Liu Qingyuan heard this, he didn't know how to answer.

What he said and what Su Shu said were actually based on two points.

Liu Qingyuan looked at it from the perspective of humanity.

Among the universal values ​​of humanity, if a person carves out a piece of land and establishes his own foundation in it, then this land can be regarded as his.

Even now, with the establishment of a dynastic state and the improvement of the legal network of humane order, at best, there are only more applications for development in the early stage and back payment of taxes later.

But Su Shu’s foothold lies in the heaven and earth itself.

For heaven and earth, neither individuals nor collectives are ever the owners of the land.

To put it bluntly, for heaven and earth, the gods that coexist with it are still vassals, almost parasite-like mortals and monks, who have the right to be the masters of this land?

Everything is just a matter of my knowledge, but once these things are discussed, how can they be used as support?

And since this land does not belong to the owner of Biyun Blessed Land, what's the problem if Buddhism comes to fight for it?

"I understand."

Su Shu looked at Liu Qingyuan and consoled him: "You are on the road to immortality.

The days ahead will be very long.

You cannot simply rely on humanistic concepts to see the problems in the world.

For example, against Biyun Blessed Land, Although Buddhism is somewhat lacking in morality, from the perspective of heaven and earth, Buddhism can replace or even do better than Biyun Blessed Land, so what they do cannot be called wrong. " After saying that, Su Shu made another point: "As for Buddhism's attitude, I am just telling you this matter.

As for whether you are willing to accept it or not, it is your business."

"If I don't want to"

Liu Qingyuan's question did not surprise Su Shu at all.

He replied calmly: "Then you go find trouble with them.

For the sake of me, Xuandu and your teacher, the best people in Buddhism can do is use the past to deal with Mingkong.

The method is to keep you suppressed for a hundred and eighty years and then release you after the journey to the west is over. " "What if I want to" Su Shu, whose voice remained unchanged at all, continued to answer: "Then you will go into seclusion in Taiyin Peak.

When all the dust falls, Buddhism will give you nothing less.

In addition to losing some reputation, you will actually gain nothing.

There can only be more resources.”

"Then what does the emperor want from me?"

Su Shu paused for a moment, then said in the same tone of voice: "Myself, Xuandu, and your teacher are not going to interfere with your choice, whether you are willing or not.

We are neither blocking nor Will help, everything is up to you.”

"That's it, I understand.

Thank you Emperor for your advice."

Liu Qingyuan bowed and saluted again, then turned and left.

Su Shu shook his head and dispersed the incarnation, and he was sitting in front of his true self in the lunar star.

Xuan Lingjun, surrounded by water and light, sighed with emotion: "What does the emperor think Liu Qingyuan will choose to do?"

"Of course he is causing trouble for Buddhism," Su Shu responded casually.

In the past, Liu Qingyuan was sent to Xiaojiuzhou by Li Haocheng for training because of his too peaceful personality.

During that time, although Lord Xuanling also helped once or twice, he knew After all, there weren't many, and Su Shu, who had been observing him, knew Liu Qingyuan's character very well, and could naturally guess his choice.

"Then we really won't help."

Xuan Lingjun hesitated.

"Of course I won't help."

Su Shu nodded in response, and then changed his attitude 180 degrees and said: "Of course, if the other party insists on bullying the small, then I don't mind finding fault with Buddhism. ” When Xuan Lingjun heard this, he still didn't know what Su Shu meant by protecting his shortcomings.

However, as one of his subordinates, Su Shu or Li Haocheng showed a protective attitude, so Xuan Lingjun was rather happy.

After thinking about it, Lord Xuanling asked again: "What problem did Zhishen have that could make many Buddhist masters helpless, even Master Mingwei couldn't do it himself?

If I read it correctly, it seems that there is something in the seal script It also contains clear light.”

The issue of Lord Xuanling is actually quite sensitive, but he is not an outsider.

He has gained Li Haocheng's trust early on, and has been blessed by the clear light of the Jade Talisman for a long time.

Therefore, after observing the clear light of a jade talisman hidden in the deepest part of the seal script in Liu Qingyuan's hand when Liu Qingyuan started to enlighten Monk Zhishen, he decisively raised his doubts.

"It's nothing, it's just Buddha oil," Su Shu responded casually, which made Xuan Lingjun's face suddenly not look good.

There is no way, Buddha oil can actually be said to be a specialty of Little Kyushu in the past.

Although it is specially used to target Buddhism, the sacrificial refining method is extremely cruel, and people like Xuan Lingjun cannot accept it.

"How could something like this be spread across Jiuzhou?"

Xuan Lingjun reacted immediately after his initial disgust subsided.

"Since the method Mrs.

Huang Quan brought has been passed down, naturally many people are willing to try it."

"Then how could they have concealed it from the great sages of Buddhism?"

Xuan Lingjun raised new doubts, but then he quickly understood the reason.

Among the top powers in Jiuzhou, there are not one or two blessed places, caves, or even affiliated heavens and earths among any of them.

Those people are brewing Buddha oil in these blessed places, caves, and affiliated heavens.

Even if many great sects in Buddhism have thousands of hands and eyes, they can manifest themselves according to circumstances and save people in distress.

Even if there is a barrier between heaven and earth, no matter how someone deliberately deceives them, they cannot sense it.

Not to mention, at the junction of the Nether Demon Continent and the Western Brahma Continent, there are small-scale conflicts between Buddhists and demons from time to time.

Today, the demonic monks are converted into Buddhist masters, and tomorrow, the Buddhist monks become prisoners.

Even if these monks in the Demon Continent are brewing in their own territory, what can Buddhism do?

If they can kill them, there will not be a strong resentment still hanging over the Demon Continent today.

"Hey" sighed, Xuan Lingjun turned to ask Li Hao's question.

When Su Shu heard this, he smiled and said: "I have gradually entered a better state.

It won't take long before I can completely bring the innate Taixu Qi under my control.

However, the same problem is that as I gradually master the immortal state, Strength, the enemies we need to face are becoming more and more troublesome.”

"This is nature."

Xuan Lingjun, who didn't know what he needed to face, thought that the trouble Su Shu mentioned was due to the improvement of his cultivation level, changes in his social circle, and the natural changes in the enemies he needed to face.

Changes, his focus was instead on the changes in Li Haocheng's cultivation.

"How strong is Master Mingwei now?"
