Chapter 2209 1.98 Ma Ming Bodhisattva

The next day, King Ji was refreshed and calm. He followed the light car and went to the Pilichuan meeting.

Shangyuan, Yunhua, and the fairy in the palace maid of Yong, went there in the same car. After all, Queen Zhuyu is also the Xia Xianmen. She also possesses the way of gods and ghosts. She must be guarded.

Looking for the valley, looking at the mountains and ridges, clouds and mists. The dazzling flags on the top of the mountain are where the Queen of Zhusumi camp is located.

Along the way, there were servant camps. Wherever the king arrived, the queen servants came out of their tents and bowed to the ground to perform great gifts. Even though the king passed away, he still did not move at all and did not get up.

Humility is so. If it is not a harsh government that is more powerful than a tiger, it is a kind government that can help people to hang upside down. Or it is a ghost, respecting it like a god. Queen Zhusu must have something to be favored.

Before reaching the top, there was a commotion in the saka ahead.

Then there were good men and women who surrounded each other and rushed towards the king's carriage.

"Could it be..." Seeing this grand occasion, Shangyuan and others lost their appearance.

King Ji realized this: "But the Buddhist master."

"That's right." Shangyuan calmed his mind: "Ma Ming Bodhisattva."

Bodhisattva, full name "Bodhisattva", is translated as enlightened sentient beings. It has two meanings.

First, it refers specifically to Prince Siddhartha before becoming a Buddha. "The Sutra of Practice: Volume 2": "When the Bodhisattva saw this category of sentient beings, he swept and swallowed each other, and was kind and sad, and then he obtained the first meditation under the tree (two volumes. He was the Emperor Ling and Emperor Xian, and translated it together by Zhu Dali and Kang Mengqing. It also wrote the Sutra of Practice)."

Second, it refers to sentient beings who have great vows to benefit themselves and to benefit others, pursue the state of supreme enlightenment, and have achieved the principle of emptiness. The state that Bodhisattvas are enlightened is below the Buddha and above the Arhat. "The Buddha's Tenth Stage Sutra, Volume 2": "After the Bodhisattvas have such great compassion, great compassion, and great pleasure, in order to save all sentient beings, they will also seek the benefits of the world and the world."

Hearing the Sanskrit sound played by the Sanskrit, the King of Ji asked, "What is this song called?"

"Lai Zha Luo." Shangyuan was like facing a great enemy. Since ancient times, immortals and Buddhas have not yet stood together.

It was the music created by Ma Wu Bodhisattva. "The Book of the Causes and Responsibilities of Fu Fazang" says: "(Ma Wu Bodhisattva) marched and educated in Huashi City, and wanted to save all sentient beings in that city, so he wrote wonderful music, called "Lai Zha Yuluo". Its sound is elegant and solemn and harmonious."

Bodhisattva Ma Ming was respected as the "Twelfth Patriarch of India". He was from Sazhiduo City, the country of Sharva, and was born in the Brahman family. He was knowledgeable and eloquent. He was deeply impressed by the Indian elders, and he converted to the throne and became his disciple. After becoming a monk, he studied Buddhism deeply, was well-versed in the Tripitaka, spreading the Dharma and transforming the people, and was highly valued by the king.

As mentioned earlier, since the collapse of Ashoka, the Mauryan Dynasty has split. Kushan has been eyeing the peninsula with great enthusiasm.

At that time, King Kanasega invaded the Kingdom of Magata and only then could he withdraw his troops. He also threatened that if there was no 300 million gold, he could change the Buddha's bowl and Ma Ming to get the same. Later, he got his wish. King Kanasega was ashamed of the treasure and was happy to retreat. However, the ministers were dissatisfied and criticized him. In order to make the people understand the great wisdom of Ma Ming, they also led the public to understand the Buddhist principles. King Kanasega summoned the monks and outsiders in the country (note ①) and asked Ma Ming to ascend to the seat to preach. Seven horses hungry for six days were placed and followed the people to listen to the Dharma. When preaching, "all those who listened will understand the Dharma." Even the hungry horses shed tears and listened to the Dharma with grass, without any thoughts. Because the horses could also understand their sound, they were respected as "Ma Ming Bodhisattva".

King Kanasega also abandoned the heretics and converted to Buddhism. He became the Buddhist Dharma Protector. The Buddhist scriptures praised King Kanasega as "the second king of Ashoka".

In the sixth year of Guanghe (183), King Hubi Sega II of Kushan ascended the throne. Bodhisattva Ma Ming was able to return to his country. He wandered around the northern body to poison all countries and widely preached Buddhism.

Unexpectedly, today, I met King Ji here.

King Liu Bei of Ji and Bodhisattva Ma Ming each had their own supporters. They walked towards each other and met Banpo.

King Ji stopped the car, and the Bodhisattva stayed in the chariot.

When he saw an old man in white robe, he had kind eyebrows and looked down from the chariot. King Ji wanted to get up and rushed to meet him.

"Husband, you can't." Shangyuan and Yun Hua hurriedly stopped him, for fear of being harmed by Buddhist masters.

"It's okay." King Ji has made up his mind: "It's also my husband's wish for his whole life to meet the Buddhist monks."

It is said that many years ago, King Ji first came to Luoyang. He was entrusted by the Hu Ji restaurant An and met An Shigao in the White Horse Temple. An Shigao left the Buddha's words and sat down. He was cremated (cremated) by Liu Bei in the Vila Hall and on the cool platform.

Among the ashes, only a red relic bead was found, as huge as a longan. Kang Shengji gave it to the relic and told Liu Bei, King Ji. He said that the Buddha had a destiny to live in the Buddha's way (see "Luoyang·1.23 True Bone Relic" for details).

King Ji has always worn it and never left his body easily. He did not believe in Buddhism, but remembered his old friends.

When King Ji and Buddhist monks are concerned about the affairs of the world, those who practice immortals must know that they have a scale and a half claws. During the Qianqiu Temple in Luoyang, Shangyuan was always thinking about it, and did not hesitate to give up his innocent body and use skills on King Ji. He was afraid that the master of Sanxing would be focused on Buddhism.

Now, King Ji led a 100,000 army to a thousand miles away. He destroyed his body and poisoned the Buddha's kingdom. He eliminated the Xia Immortal Sect and was a great trouble. He said that "the son of a thousand gold is sitting in the hall." The person opposite him was also a Buddhist monk. He was a Mahayana scholar who was born six hundred years after the Buddha's death. The Sanskrit name was "Ashiva Visa". If you have any bad intentions, you will assassinate the king in front of you. The battle to destroy the country will be wasted all previous efforts.

I even face my husband day and night, embracing the yin and yang. I have long been deeply rooted in love. How can I sit and watch my husband and go to danger alone?

Seeing Shangyuan and others, he was still unwilling to accept it. King Ji then advised him: "Since he is a powerful Buddhist, how can he do something stingy?"

When he met Shangyuan, his love was so deep. Yun Hua and his sisters came together to persuade him: "Honey, born in the future, and the most unselfish person. He also has the highest true bones of peace and high (relics). This is enough to be safe."

King Ji personally moved the mechanism, folded the stairs, landed in sequence, and got out of the car and rushed to meet Ma Ming.

Since King Ji appeared, he instantly attracted everyone's attention.

In full view of everyone, King Ji was calm and composed.

"I'm old, pay homage to the king." It's actually a mandarin dialect in Jingji.

"Master, I have been to Luoyang." King Ji treated him with courtesy.

"I have never been here in person." Bodhisattva Ma Ming replied.

"Sure enough, 'Man can spread the Tao, but not the Tao can spread the people'." King Ji sighed. The meaning of King Ji was that since he had worked hard to learn Luoyang's official language, Ma Ming must have gone to the East to promote Buddhism.

"The words come from King Su Confucius."

"That's right." Ma Ming was knowledgeable and wise, and King Ji was not surprised.

"What's the crime of despising a country?" Ma Ming must have asked this question.

"No sin."

"What kind of misfortune are sentient beings?"

"No mistake."

"The country is guilty, and there is no fault of all. Why did the king come from with a hundred thousand armored sharp men?"

"I heard that the master is a native of Shravas." King Ji asked without answering a question.

“Yes.”

“For Brahmins.”

“Yes.”

King Ji nodded gently: "I am a relative of the Han Dynasty. The emperor's blood inheritance. However, because of some reason, his ancestors were covered with dust. His grandfather was only a county dictator. Later, his father died early and he depended on his orphan for life. At that time, his family was left with his orphan and he did not continue his meals. I dare to ask the master, if he was a Brahmin, would he be here?"

"It will not come to this." Bodhisattva Ma Ming answered truthfully.

"Later, I worked hard from this. Young Master was restored to his title and was named King. I dug up internal and external waterways and set up ten ports on the river. Now I have carried ten thousand soldiers and chariots and 100,000 armors to go to the body to poison him. I wonder if the master is Dalit, can he be here?"
