Chapter 8 Religion and Belief


"Tibetan Buddhism has a system of education, and you can look at it when you have time.

& & Zhang Chun and his entourage walked slowly along the sidewalk of the square, and he said to Cheng Liqing, who was accompanying him.

"You know the difference between the Han and the Mongolian, and the Tibetan in terms of inheritance."

Several people looked at Zhang Chun curiously.

Zhang Chun smiled: "Because the Han people are the most realistic, we have to pass on what we know to the next generation, we attach importance to the unknown, but we pay more attention to inheritance, because human life is limited, and only by passing on what we know to the next generation can the race reproduce."

Moreover, there are too many gods of the Han people, and Xu Dao always knows this best. ” "How can so many gods be religious?"

The Panchen did not speak, and an attaché beside him asked.

"The biggest difference between Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism is that everyone has a Buddha in their hearts, and they become a Buddha with a single thought, and then put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the ground.

In other words, everyone has Buddha nature.

As Zhang Chun spoke, he looked at Zen Master Zhenxu.

Zen Master Zhenxu folded his hands and chanted the Buddha.

"Legend has it that no reincarnation is Hinayana Buddhism, and all reincarnation is Mahayana Buddhism.

Therefore, the Panchen Lama is the reincarnation of a living Buddha.

Zhang Chun said with a smile Panchen nodded.

"Do Taoists talk about reincarnation?"

Zhang Chun asked Xu Benshan.

"Ancient souls return to heaven and earth, and people die like lights go out, and there is no reincarnation.

The Quanzhen School of Buddhism is unified and talks about reincarnation.

Xu Benshan said very sincerely.

Zhang Chun smiled: "Don't talk about the disturbances."

The Panchen Lama has been in the mainland for many years, but he has heard that there are mountain gods in the Middle Earth Mountains and water gods.

Even the place has a land god. ” "I've heard a little."

"In ancient times, there were five elements of gods, gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.

These gods were actually former officials.

For example, Jin Zhengbei, Shui Zhengxuanming, etc. were all officials in charge of smelting and water conservancy in ancient times.

They have done good deeds for the common people.

So the common people built temples for them and sacrificed to them.

We excavated in Anyang in addition to some oracle bones that were written about how we sacrificed to these gods.

During the Yin Shang period, the gods were the ancestors who made contributions.

The Panchen Lama has sacrificed to Mr.

Sun, and perhaps many years later, Mr.

Sun will also become a god in the mouths of future generations. ” "Mr.

Sun's merits are immeasurable."

The Panchen Lama did not answer the question directly.

"The Yellow Emperor divided the eight directions, so there were eight gods.

There are also eight wind gods.

Huainanzi recorded.

However, they are also some tribal leaders.

God is also divided into good and evil, there are good gods and there are evil gods.

Because these gods were originally human beings.

Nature has brought humanity to the past. ” "Taoism respects Laojun, and Taishang Laojun is called Li Er, which is the history of the Zhou royal family.

That is, the officials who manage the state texts.

He read through thousands of years of our history and wrote a book called the Tao Te Ching.

At that time, Taishang Laojun was not a god.

He is a scholar and a university scholar.

Confucius also ran to him for advice and learning.

The Tao Te Ching condenses thousands of years of historical wisdom.

After Laozi, there was Zhuangzi, that is, Nanhua Zhenren, a native of Chu.

The South China Sutra talks about the way of being a man and the principle of governing the country. ” "There are too many gods like this in China, Lu Ban is the ancestor of carpenters, Lu Yu is the tea saint, and Tang Xuanzong is the god of pear orchards.

Guan Yu is a martial saint, and Yue Fei has also become the prince of Yue.

Eight immortals across the sea.

Uncle Cao Guo is the uncle of the country, Lu Dongbin is a scholar, Han Zhongli is a general, and so on.

Don't talk about the gods of the land, the gods of mountains and the gods of water.

All Chinese gods are not gods.

It's people, our ancestors, our respected ancestors.

When I say this, I mean, do things for the country, do things for the people, and the people will think of you as a god.

This is true of the 5,000-year-old Chinese nation. ” Zhang Chun smiled: "In fact, it is not an exaggeration to regard the Han people as a race of gods, because everyone has the opportunity to become a god."

The Sixth Patriarch Hui Neng said that he became a Buddha with one thought, which is also right.

In fact, there is no distinction between high and low, but there are many great sentences of contribution and merit like the sand of the Ganges, but a thousand words are the only way.

I've read some Buddhist texts, and I'm afraid it comes down to "selflessness in nature."

Sacrifice for the sake of all beings.

I don't know what the Panchen Lama thinks?

” "Not bad."

"The Buddha came from the west, from the Songtsen Gampo period to the Repachen period, monks were exempt from taxes and manual labor; A dojo dedicated to the "Three Jewels" of Buddha, Dharma and Sangha was set up in the palace to allow monks to participate in state affairs.

I wonder if there is no self in my nature, why is it here?

If you have the courage to sacrifice your life for the people, why don't you work and need the people to provide for you?

Finally, there is the period of exterminating the law of Tibet.

One hundred years later, Buddhism was revived.

It's just that it's still theocracy.

The Panchen Lama asked me, have you ever thought of being in harmony with the main tenets of the Dharma?

” The Panchen Lama and his entourage stopped, some silent, some glaring angrily, some bowing their heads in contemplation.

The Panchen pondered for a moment and said, "I hope Mr.

Zhang will teach you." ” Zhang Chun smiled indifferently: "I know that the Panchen Lama has a profound cultivation of the astronomical calendar, Tibetan medicine and Tibetan medicine, is proficient in Buddhism, and is good at teaching people's hearts.

But I'm afraid it's better to carry forward the true law and get rid of maladministration. ” "The disadvantages have been accumulated for a long time, and I am afraid that it will not work in a short time, and it will be taken advantage of by the British."

Zhang Chun looked at Mao Shishan and smiled: "It seems that we still have to help, it's time to ask Ma Bufang to move the nest."

Maybe in a few years I will be able to visit the Panchen Lama at Taal Monastery. ” "What about Houzang?"

"Cultivating and recuperating for a few years, whether it is a Tibetan soldier or a Han soldier, it is an eagle that can climb over the Gangdis Sacred Mountain."

Yan'an Petroleum Institute, the science museum is not professional, the so-called observatory here is just a simple astronomical observatory built because students want to study geophysics, there is only one astronomical telescope, open to the public.

So a lot of kids will also run over and stand on the stool and spin around.

"In Buddhism, the idea of the three thousand worlds is correct, outside the earth, there are nine planets revolving around the sun, countless small stars, this is a system called the solar system, and the earth is just one of the planets.

The Milky Way we see is another system made up of hundreds of billions.

The solar system is just one of the Milky Way.

Above the Milky Way is an even larger system.

What do the children see?

” Zhang Chun asked a group of children around the astronomical telescope.

"Mars."

The children dispersed, leaving only a little girl with a flushed face standing on a stool.

Zhang Chun smiled and asked, "Is it good-looking?"

” "It's not pretty."

The little girl shook her head.

"It's good to look at it from afar, but it's not good to look at it when you pull it in."

Zhang Chun said, "Can you teach this grandfather to watch?"

” The little girl was excited: "Yes, I am the best in our class." ” Everyone burst into laughter.

The Panchen really walked over, and the little girl chirped and taught the Panchen how to aim and how to adjust the focus.

"Mars is not slow, other stars can be optimistic for a long time.

Look at Mars to follow suit.

When you look at this star from afar, it's okay, but if it's magnified, it's not good.

Of all the stars, Saturn is the most beautiful, like a large balloon with rings of many small stars around it, and larger moons.

The moon is the worst to look at.

It's all craters.

The Milky Way looks like a river, but it's all made up of stars.

It's just too far away and our eyes look like clouds.

But in the telescope there are a lot of little stars."

The Panchen was startled at first sight, but he quickly learned how to adjust the focus.

But after looking at a few stars, he was silent.

Just patted the little girl on the head.

"Would you like to take a look?"

The Panchen asked the people around him.

"Are you sure it's not magic?"

One of the attachés asked, but ran over anyway.

The Panchen Lama said: "If you dare to ask questions when you are preaching the scriptures, you should have the courage to look at them." ” The attaché was also startled at first.

But soon beckoned his companion to see it.

So a group of young lamas gathered around the telescope.

The little girl was squeezed out directly.

Pouted and looked at Zhang Chun and Lizhi aggrievedly.

Lizhi smiled and said, "It's okay, you can watch it every day, it's the first time these big brothers have seen it." ” The group of children spoke and gathered around: "Auntie, I saw you in the newspaper, you are much better looking than Uncle Chairman." ” Cheng Liqing and Mao Shishan, who were in the gang, snorted and laughed.

Shui Ling also ran to Zhang Chun and looked at it and said, "It's true." ” Lizhi raised her eyebrows at Zhang Chun playfully.

But she glanced at one of the attachés who remained with the Panchen.

This attaché did show a murderous intent on his part.

The Panchen also noticed it, and said with a smile: "Why don't you go and see it?"

” "Piety to the Buddha cannot be moved by external objects.

Like an illusory bubble.

The attaché relaxed.

Zhang Chun smiled.

The lama stopped and returned to the Panchen in embarrassment.

"What do you see?"

Panchen asked.

"Unreal bubbles."

Several lamas blushed and looked at the attaché who had not left.

But another lama sneered and said, "It's really an illusion." ” Seeing that the two were about to argue, Zhang Chun said with a smile: "The so-called illusory bubble also has a very interesting saying, I don't know if the two of you are interested in listening to it." ” The Panchen nodded and smiled, "Mr.

Zhang, please speak." ”
