Chapter 1334 Mahayana Buddhism(1/3)
Wearing gray monk robes, they walked leisurely along the way without any sweat or dust.
Spotless.
As if it came from heaven.
The young monk held something in his hands, which was covered with cloth and even more restrained.
Unable to be seen by ordinary people.
The two monks came slowly.
But he turned to Xuanzang who had not yet come down from the stage and said: "Amitabha, what Master Xuanzang just said, I have heard everything.
However, the way of heaven is clear and reincarnation is deeply entangled, and the world is confused and ignorant, unable to understand suffering, and it is difficult to cross the other side of the sea.
Even though you are a scholar of heaven and man, you have also been ordered by the Emperor of Tang to summon sages to help the suffering people in the world.
However, when all human power is exhausted, how can we contend with heaven and earth?
Why be detached?
What you are talking about are all methods of self-transcendence, and what you are looking for is the way of self-transcendence.
Although this method is good, it is not the great way."
Xuanzang: "..."
He was shocked by the old monk's words, "May I ask, what is the great road?"
What they seek is not the right path.
So why is it a great road?
Tao, where is it?
"Only by saving all the people in the world, saving all the suffering people, and saving the root causes of evil in the world can we achieve the great road."
The old monk replied: "What you are talking about and what you seek are all ways to save oneself. The way to save oneself is not the way to save others. This is the Hinayana Dharma."
"Theravada Buddhism?"
Xuanzang was stunned and asked curiously: "Since it is Hinayana Buddhism, there must be Mahayana Buddhism. I wonder if the Master is talking about Mahayana Buddhism?"
"Of course."
Hearing this, the old monk nodded naturally.
I was very satisfied with Xuanzang in my heart.
"As expected of the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi."
He thought silently in his heart, "As expected of a disciple of the Buddha, he has a bit of the Buddha's mind."
"Excuse me, Master, where can we find Mahayana Buddhism?"
Xuanzang was curious and said, "Xuanzang, a poor monk, is willing to use his own efforts to obtain the true scriptures of Mahayana Buddhism, so that he can save the world and the root of evil in the world. Even if he dies, he will have no regrets."
"Are you willing to let go of the world of mortals and this important reputation?"
The old monk asked: "Today, you are an eminent monk of the Tang Dynasty and Master Xuanzang, respected by the world. If you go to seek the true scriptures, all the scriptures will turn into nothingness and floating clouds."
"It can be released."
Xuanzang said calmly: "The poor monk has been a monk since he was a child. He knows that it is difficult to escape the sea of suffering, and also knows that it is difficult to cross the other side. He is willing to seek the true scriptures of Mahayana Buddhism."
"Very good."
It seems that Xuanzang's answer is very satisfactory.
The old monk couldn't help but nodded, "In that case, the poor monk told you that the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures are hidden in the Great Leiyin Temple where the Buddha lived in Lingshan Mountain, Xitian.
If you want to obtain the true scriptures, you should go to the holy land of Xitianwu Buddha on foot to seek the true scriptures and enlighten the people of the world.
It should be noted that the journey here is far away, covering hundreds of thousands of miles in a moment.
There are countless wolves, insects, tigers and leopards among them, and there are even great demons who have achieved great success in spiritual practice. Are you still willing to go?"
"..."
Xuanzang was also determined.
Jiang Qian felt that if it were him, he would probably not be able to help but ask, "Is it too late to regret now?"
It's too scary after all.
It’s not even a thousand miles away.
The journey is a bit long, but it is still acceptable.
The likes of wolves, insects, tigers and leopards are also normal.
But if he wants to leave in the ordinary world, he still has to pass through the residences of monsters, which is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
If it had been someone else, I'm afraid he would have quit long ago.
but.
Xuanzang was different.
He nodded firmly and said, "Amitabha only saves himself, not the wish of a poor monk. Now I know that there is Mahayana Buddhism in the world, which can relieve the ignorance of the world and save the common people from the sea of suffering. Xuanzang is willing to go to the west to worship my Buddha Tathagata and seek this truth.
through.
Even if there are countless wolves, worms, tigers and leopards, even if the journey is long, even if a big monster sweeps across, I will not be afraid.
My Buddha will bless you.
Although this is difficult, I have no complaints or regrets.”
In his heart, there is the world and the common people.
There are also all the spirits in the heavens.
Even if we go to Xitianling Mountain to obtain the true scriptures, it will be very dangerous and may even put our lives in danger.
but.
Xuanzang was not willing to back down.
This is his life.
This is also the path he pursues.
He has no regrets.
"Very good."
The old monk continued: "The Mahayana Buddhism can save all people in the world and relieve the suffering of the people, but we need to go to the West to obtain it.
This is a matter of immeasurable merit.
If Master Xuanzang is willing to go, it will be of immeasurable merit."
These are true.
But Xuanzang didn't know that at this moment.
He thought it was just a word of relief from the other party, but he didn't think much about it.
Jiang Chi, on the other hand, was a little envious. He thought to himself: "This old monk must be the one from Nanhai who rescues people in distress. His strength is indeed unpredictable."
He didn't dare to look any further.
For such a powerful person, even if it is a painting, if you stare at it, others will feel something.
Still don't look at it.
He actually envied Xuanzang, or Jin Chanzi.
"As a disciple of Buddha, he may be in a high position, but he does not have a deep understanding of Buddhism and does not have enough understanding of the way of heaven."
Jiang Que secretly said: "This means that his cultivation realm is not very advanced, but after re-cultivating, he can not only combine the memories of several lifetimes, but also gain the merit of traveling to the west to obtain scriptures.
By then, he will be at least a Daluo Golden Immortal.
No.
Combined with the fact that he was finally pardoned and canonized as the Tantan Merit Buddha, he should be a quasi-sage.
A journey to the west is a meritorious deed.
It makes people envious and jealous.”
Who doesn’t want merit?
pity.
No one else has a chance.
All the gods and Buddhas in the sky could only serve as monsters that Xuanzang wanted to fight during the entire journey to the west.
Artificially create some NPCs and let Xuanzang and his five masters and disciples brush them.
Even this is a kind of protection. To a certain extent, those artificially created NPCs will never kill Xuanzang.
