Suzaku

Chapter 173

thirty-two fifty-three references

The story of the Bodhisattva is over, but Yi Tianxing always feels that the story has just begun.

If you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it. Even if the Buddha teacher is on the sidelines and the Bodhisattva gives you hints, you still don’t understand it.

If you explain it clearly, you will understand, even if you are still confused at the first moment, you will be blessed at the next moment.

Yi Tianxing closed his eyes for a while, and sorted out the strange things he had experienced in his life from beginning to end, and only then did he know what the story told by Samantabhadra Bodhisattva is. The so-called things are strung together.

The disappearance of the Buddha has a lot to do with the Western Ultimate Bliss, and it might be the hand of that party.

Samantabhadra and Manjusri went to the lower realms to search for them. In order to prevent them from finding the Buddha, or finding the connection between the disappearance of the Buddha and the Paradise, the West Paradise Pure Land Realm naturally had to cover up this matter. From this point of view, Taoists ordered the group of human monks to spend three days in various temples and kill the Bodhisattva Arhats who came down to earth after the two great Bodhisattvas. Miserably hiding for hundreds of years, all in order to erase that memory in this great world.

The memory of why the Buddha disappeared is related to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss in the Western Paradisememory.

When the old monkey was laid down, it was before the Buddha disappeared. Since then, he was imprisoned in the temple, and his domineering supernatural powers were not suppressed by the flesh, so he saved his life. Presumably, he was the most feared person in the West Heaven Pure Land, and that Fang kept urging Taoists to send people to “harass” him. Maybe he didn’t necessarily want to get rid of the old monkey, but just wanted to make sure that the old monkey was still trapped by the cassock formation.

It’s just a quarrel in the Buddhist world, and what role does the Taoist sect play in this matter with Tiangong? The Yang family has no grievances. What’s even more strange is that Yi Tianxing had a touch with Chen Shuping’s consciousness on Poyang Lake, and found that the fairy dog ​​didn’t like this job of killing people.

Daomen is forced

Yi Tianxing suddenly thought of the conversation in the jeep at the foot of Wudang Mountain. At that time, Zou Lei asked curiously: “Why do Taoist priests say Infinite Life Buddha when they greet each other?”

Yes, why do Taoist priests say Buddha of Infinite Life

The Buddha of Infinite Life is Infinite Light and Infinite Life, the Lord of Buddhism in the Western Paradise, the Amitabha Buddha

Thousands of reasons, like countless light spots, are finally connected today by the memory preserved by Samantabhadra, and the network of things gradually becomes clear. It seems that behind the Taoism is still the Amitabha Buddha. What kind of method did the master use, so that Daomen also began to help them to seal the secret of the disappearance of the Buddha.

Thousands of clues lead directly to the ethereal and faintly hidden above the heavy sky, the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss far away.

But just knowing this is of no use to finding the Buddha.

“If you want me to go to the Buddha, do you want me to fight with the people in the Pure Land of Paradise? That’s courting death.”

Especially after seeing the tragic situation of Puxian Bodhisattva, Yi Tianxing understood the difficulty of the matter even more.

“This is the most thorough courting of death”

Willing to suffer thousands of sufferings, just to keep a memory that can’t solve the problem in Yi Tianxing’s view, the Bodhisattva’s idea is really different. Yi Tianxing suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and remembered another title of this Samantabhadra Bodhisattva: “Bodhisattva of Truth”

The most important thing in finding the truth is perseverance and determination.

Puxian Bodhisattva’s hundreds of years of living in seclusion in this wilderness proves his perseverance and determination. This kind of great vow power is not far behind that of the great Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

Thinking of this festival, Yi Tianxing prostrated himself on the ground, extremely pious: “Even though he died nine times without regret, the bodhisattva’s true intentions, although I can’t come, I yearn for it.”

This brat didn’t say a word that he should learn the virtues of Bodhisattvas, and contribute to the great cause of finding Buddhas, but at this point, he also refused to give Bodhisattvas a positive answer.

Ye Xiangseng gave him a mournful look, the anger in his eyes was as faint as water.

Yi Tianxing shuddered, and said with a forced smile: “I can’t seem to be of much help to find the Buddha.”

Whenever encountering something too dangerous, Yi Tianxing can immediately transform into the most self-deprecating rogue proletarian.

At this time, Puxian wrapped his white clothes around his upper body again, as if he was afraid of the cold, his pupils were as cold as ice, and looked at Yi Tianxing: “I explored your sea of ​​consciousness before, only then did I know that you have worshiped the great sage as a teacher, and you are looking for the Buddha. The Great Sage is the cause, and you are the effect, if you want to get rid of it, it seems too difficult.”

Yi Tianxing said with a bitter face: “I worship the old monkey as a teacher, but he coaxed him all the way to worship.” The old ancestor first used the ancient grandpa to lure him into Guiyuan Temple, and said coaxing, but he was not wronged.

Puxian Bodhisattva let him relax, brushed his dry hand slightly in front of his face, and explored his past experiences over the years. The more he looked at him, the more a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: “It seems that this calamity is really due to goodness. knowledge.”

“how to tell”

“The great sage was demoted to the mortal world, trapped in that temple, and could not escape for five hundred years. As his disciple, you naturally want to free him from the temple, and the person who trapped him is the Buddha.” Samantabhadra smiled. After finishing the next sentence: “If you don’t go to find the Buddha, how will you save him from the temple? Therefore, it is destined that you are the one who will find the Buddha.”

“You shouldn’t enter the back garden of Guiyuan Temple.” Yi Tianxing groaned in pain: “I knew it was nothing good to worship that master.”

Having said that, now that he and the old monkey master and apprentice are getting closer and closer, can he still see the first hero of the old monkey trapped in a temple? It fell on this place, and the matter of finding the Buddha seemed to depend on Yi Tianxing, and he couldn’t escape.

He suddenly thought of something, and asked: “When I was about to ascend that day, Bodhisattva, why were you willing to take the risk of being discovered by Bodhisattva Dashizhi, calling me down? ”

“Do you know where the sky is going astray?”

“But staying in the human world all the time, my fart strength seems useless.” Yi Tianxing subconsciously prepared to ask for some benefits.

Samantabhadra said softly: “Your power is very useful, at least it can help me get rid of this physical suffering.”

“how to say”

Puxian smiled and said: “My body is so broken and painful, but I can’t die immediately. If I disperse my cultivation by myself, I’m afraid I will disturb the world and suffer the common people. In the future, I will enter reincarnation and I will need the help of good teachers. I’m on fire.”

Yi TianXing was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that Samantabhadra Bodhisattva had the intention of extinction when he saw him. Judging from the meaning of the words, it seemed that he wanted to do it himself.

“That day, I ventured to release my spiritual consciousness to contact the virtuous teacher. I was worried that the virtuous teacher would be inspired by the Suzaku’s hostility and go to heaven. But as soon as the spiritual consciousness came out, I think it has alarmed some people.” Puxian Bodhisattva sighed: “How did the lamas who wanted to rob Tsongkhapa’s offerings outside this temple know that I thought someone called them to investigate in the temple. I think, in a few days, Dashizhi will come again.”

Ye Xiangseng nodded slightly: “Those lamas are really weird.”

Puxian smiled and said: “Fortunately, I met a good teacher first, and I can tell you this story. Even if I leave, my heart is no longer disturbed. I have been dying in the human world for hundreds of years, and my heart is gradually growing. The vision of the snow disaster in Houzang is all caused by the anger in my heart. If I hide here again, I am afraid that the people of all families will suffer. If I don’t see you again, I will have to leave this life, and I don’t care about looking for the Buddha. It’s over.”

Compassion is compassion for the human world, and it is more important than finding the Buddha.

This is the great virtue of the Bodhisattva.

Yi Tianxing sighed: “It turns out that this snow disaster is your mind, the Great Bodhisattva.” He was a little shocked in his heart, and he understood from the side what kind of power a real Bodhisattva has.

Puxian looked at him quietly, with firm eyes in softness: “Although I know little about the Buddha, I think I am the one who knows the most in this world. I hope it can be helpful to good teachers. .”

Yi Tianxing lowered his head slightly, wondering what he was thinking, and subconsciously tapped the wool felt on the ground with his fingers.

After a long time, he raised his head, his eyes flickering.

“Tell me first, who am I?”

“Everything that has appearance is illusory, and all appearances are not appearances. Even if you see the Tathagata, if you see the original appearance, it is not the real appearance. The form and name are both empty, and there is no mind. Who are you and me? Is it so important?”

Yi Tianxing stubbornly stared at the Bodhisattva’s resolute eyes, which were as bright as diamonds, and did not give in.

“It’s very important to me.”

“That’s good, we can start to talk about the next passage.” Samantabhadra Bodhisattva praised Heshi.

“Wonderful Wisdom Purified Day, Great Compassionate Wheel of Consummation. Can exhaust the sea of ​​troubles, may I grant you little observation. Miaozhi Purified Moon, Great Compassion and Undefiled Wheel. Everything is in peace, and may you look after me.”

It was strange, but it was Ye Xiangseng, who had been sitting quietly by the side, who started the lecture.

Yi Tianxing felt a little weird, and turned his head to look at him.

Puxian Bodhisattva said: “A good friend has read thousands of volumes of Buddhist scriptures, and you can know what this scripture is.”

Yi Tianxing sat cross-legged on the wool felt, closed his eyes slightly, flipped through the countless scriptures he had read in his mind, and remembered them in a flash of inspiration.

“This is the Huayan Sutra.”

“Yes, what volume is the Huayan Sutra?”

“Fifty-three ginseng for the boy of good fortune.”

“A good teacher is good at eloquence, and his wisdom is extraordinary, so good and good.”

Yi Tianxing was in a daze, and then said: “Bodhisattva, please continue to preach.”

“Since the body is doing it, why do you need to speak it?” Samantabhadra Bodhisattva looked at him with a half-smile.

“Who did what?”

“Among the fifty-three participants, which two were the last ones visited by the boy of good fortune?”

Yi Tianxing broke out in a cold sweat: “Fifty-two ginseng, Manjusri Bodhisattva, fifty-three ginseng, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.”

In front of him at this time are the physical bodies of Manjusri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva in this life. What does this represent?

Knowing that he had some enlightenment, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva and Ye Xiangseng looked at each other and smiled slightly.

The fifty-three ginseng of the good fortune boy comes from the Huayan Sutra. It tells the story of a young man with good fortune in ancient times. He liked the truth and wanted to learn the great virtues of Bodhisattvas. Understand Mahayana teachings and achieve a bodhicitta.

During this boy’s practice path, a total of fifty-three virtuous teachers were interviewed, including boatmen, doctors, teachers, village women, people from all walks of life, and the most honorable Manjushri, Samantabhadra and Maitreya. Avalokitesvara and other great Bodhisattvas, regardless of whether they are monks or laymen, men or women, old or young, inside or outside, high or low, will eventually achieve the Dao.

Fifty-three ginseng of good fortune boy

The voice of Puxian Bodhisattva sounded again, and the butter lamp in the room was warm and dim.

“Where were you born?”

“Gaoyang County.”

“Who will you meet after birth”

“grandfather.”

Yi Tianxing replied in a daze as if he had no thought, counting in his heart, this is the first one, compassion.

“Who Met Again”

“Leilei’s mother.”

Yi Tianxing counted with his right finger slightly bent, this is the second one, kindness.

“Who Met Again”

“Leilei.”

Yi Tianxing didn’t close his fingers for a long time, because he didn’t know what this girl taught him in his life, maybe she taught him too much.

“Who Met Again”

“The old master.”

Yi Tianxing pursed his lips, thinking that although this old man has nothing but goodness, he seems to be kind to his ancestors. Well, this is the fourth one.

“Who Met Again”

“Yuan Ye.”

This is loyalty.

“Xiao Jinsong.”

This is contentment.”Master Binku.”

The old monk Binku taught him something. Yi Tianxing thought hard, but he didn’t know why.

“Old ancestor.”

Ah, the old monkey talked about being unreasonable and fighting. Is this considered good knowledge?

“Ye Xiangseng.”

Well, he was not Manjushri at that time.

“Qin Zi’er.” This is persistence.

“Zhou Yiwen.” This is martyrdom.

“Qin Tong’er.” This is for protection.

“The surname of Zhong is the party branch secretary.”

“Hu Yun, He Wei”

“Aunt in the cafeteria”

“Old man in toilet”

Yi Tianxing was very angry.

He felt that the names of the fifty-one people he said were forcefully forced out by the two Bodhisattvas in front of him, and said cursingly: “Fuck, I’m also called fifty-three ginseng. Pressure to extract a confession, even Jesus Christ can gather fifty-three teachers and become a reincarnated boy of good fortune”

Having said that, there was some faint fear in his heart.

He only discovered today that the people or things he met in his life, no matter what they did was evil or good, but from their point of view, they all had their own reasons. , even the original Qin Zier, including the later Xiao Zhou Zhou, was doing those things for the good in his own heart, which is simply another form of Gao Daquan, no wonder his view of life is bright , Positive, positive, active, and enterprising words are spoken by Li Dashan. Could it be that his life is a story of constant visits to good teachers?

Puxian Bodhisattva ignored him, and looked at Ye Xiang again and smiled, seemingly very relieved.

“How can there be such an irresponsible teacher as you, how can you force people to admit that they are good and rich boys like you?” Yi Tianxing said pitifully.

The two bodhisattvas ignored him and just pretended to be deep.

Yi Tianxing was dumbfounded.

He sat blankly for a long time, then suddenly hugged his head on the ground and cried bitterly, “I don’t want to be a boy of good fortune, that’s too shameless.”

Shancai boy is indeed a non-famous young fairy and monster.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva said differently: “Why are good teachers so crazy, thinking that the boy will make a great vow, and cultivate the bodhicitta in a mortal body, which is a true and genuine virtue.”

Seeing that his crying didn’t seem to change anything, Yi Tianxing cursed: “That boy is holding the bottle next to Guanyin every day, what’s the use of it?” Suddenly thinking that this sentence might be scolding himself, he quickly shut up.

“Boy Shancai is only practicing Buddhism intensively by the side of Guanyin Bodhisattva, so there is no need to hold a bottle,” Puxian Bodhisattva comforted.

Ye Xiangseng sighed, “You always look so naughty.”

“My master taught it, what’s the matter?” Yi Tianxing really has the heart to play.

Although he has been worrying about his life experience all his life, wishing that he was a real mortal, but knowing that he was actually that humble red boy in his previous life, he couldn’t help feeling sad from the bottom of his heart.

“Could it be that my father is Lao Niu and my mother is Xiao Tiantian?”

Yi Tianxing asked the sky with tears in his eyes, but was speechless.

Samantabhadra Bodhisattva was puzzled: “Who is Lao Niu and who is Xiao Tiantian?”

Ye Xiangseng frowned and thought for a while, then seriously explained: “Maybe the old cow he is talking about is a monster in the novel Journey to the West written by a foolish person in later generations. As for Xiao Tiantian, I really don’t know.”

Naturally, Manjusri Bodhisattva does not know the lines in Zhou Xingchi’s movies.

Yi Tianxing first learned about his life experience, he was troubled and sad, and a little excited.

“Why are good teachers so troubled?” Samantabhadra Bodhisattva made a big difference.

Ye Xiangseng smiled wryly, and comforted Yi Tianxing, saying, “The novelist said, how can you be real? You are a child of a thousand Buddhas. Back then, I was ordered by the Buddha to cross you to the Buddha in the city of Fu, beside the Posuo Forest, at the corner of the Great Pagoda Temple. .After you cultivated your Bodhicitta, the Buddha entrusted Guanyin Bodhisattva to take care of you. Although you have been in the world for many kalpas, nothing has happened.”

Yi Tianxing was startled, and he woke up with a confused head. Indeed, YY novels, how can they be taken seriously?

He hehe smirked and said: “Since the Buddha personally picked me up, I think I should still have some status in heaven.”

Samantabhadra frowned and sighed.

In fact, Yi Tianxing knew it himself. A while ago, he had already flipped through the thousands of Buddhist scriptures in his mind.

Good fortune boy.

What a wonderful existence.

Except for the fifty-three ginseng of the Huayan Sutra, there is no record of this boy in the thousands of Buddhist classics. It is completely unknown where this boy went, what he did, and what he did in the teaching after he cultivated Bodhicitta. land. Fifty-three ginseng is the most wonderful explanation of the teachings of humanistic Buddhism. It seems that this boy is only in the teaching to perform a show. After the curtain call, there is no security.

Yi Tianxing sat with his jaw propped up, frowning and thinking. Since the Buddha put so much effort into the good fortune boy, he invited Manjusri to teach him, and invited more than 50 teachers. It is definitely not to find a bottle-carrying boy for Guanyin Bodhisattva. Why is this boy Where is the sacred

Bodhisattvas should use Bodhicitta, the Bodhisattva path, and the right view of emptiness. After fifty-three ginseng, the good fortune boy has cultivated the bodhicitta and converted to the Mahayana teaching, which is regarded as the position of Bodhisattva. Thinking of this, the Bodhisattva Yi Tianxing felt a little proud again, and complained about himself from before.Ai got rid of his emotions.

Naturally, this is just a young man’s habit of reducing stress under strong pressure.

“Okay, I reluctantly accept the idea that I am the reincarnation of the good fortune boy.” He still said reluctantly: “Then what happened to Yi Zhu and what happened to the vision on Leilei’s body?”

Samantabhadra smiled and looked at him: “You are not a good fortune boy, you are just Yi Tianxing, just like your master is not Wukong, but a stone monkey.”

This is a very awkward teaching, but Yi Tianxing understood a little bit, and said with a smile: “Please enlighten the Bodhisattva, what is going on with Yi Zhu. This child is a Taoist beast in his body, and I was a Buddhist Bodhi in my previous life. How could he talk to me?” relational”

Puxian Bodhisattva shook his head.

Yi Tianxing was a little nervous, for fear that this Bodhisattva would be like an old monkey who wouldn’t know anything.

Fortunately, the Bodhisattva said slowly; “The Suzaku is the young of the phoenix, born from the condensation of the world’s essence fire, and existed in this universe before the kalpa, how can it be a divine beast of any family or religion? I am afraid that the Buddha will not be able to answer this question.”

“Then how did I give birth to him?”

“You didn’t give birth to him. You are him, and he is you.”

The specious and vague rhetoric of the Buddhist school has come again.

Yi Tianxing said angrily, “Can you make it clearer?”

Puxian Bodhisattva shook his head and said helplessly, “Your previous life was arranged by the Buddha, and your future life is arranged by Guanyin Bodhisattva. Fenghuang, if you have a chance in the future, ask these two.” Then he said: ” Good good good good.”

Yi Tianxing closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes after a while, exhaled a mouthful of foul air, and smiled: “If it wasn’t for the sake of your serious injury, I might have jumped up to fight you. At this time My anger is gone, let’s learn from classmate Lei Lei, I don’t want to think about things that I can’t figure out, it’s okay.”

Saying that the anger has dissipated, the last few words are still loud.

“How can I find the Buddha”

“Find it with your heart.”

“Dry”

Yi Tianxing, who finally went berserk, gave a middle finger to the poor Puxian Bodhisattva in white. :
