Chapter 22: A thousand dangers and hardships finally come back Putuo Guanyin welcomes you back
The Putuo Mountain Islands on the Lotus Ocean Shangshang Putuo Mountain in Zhoushan City, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province are the manifestation temple of Guanyin Masters. They are known as the "Sea and Sky Buddha Kingdom" and are one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China.
When I opened my eyes, I was in a bamboo forest. The bamboo was very beautiful. The bamboo body and branches were purple, but the bamboo leaves were green. Garcia Inca and I stood up and walked out slowly.
When I walked out of the forest, it started to rain. There were many people here, one group of people, one by one, one by one, and walked forward devoutly. I asked a passerby, and he told me that this was the Purple Bamboo Forest of the Holy Land of Putuo, which was the place where Guanyin Bodhisattva practiced Taoism. It was the earliest place to build a temple in Putuo Mountain - I refused to go to Guanyin Courtyard, right next to Chaoyin Cave, and he went there with his finger.
I walked forward and saw a short yellow wall surrounding three simple Buddhist temples. The temple was filled with cigarette smoke. Six golden words were written in the middle of the temple: I refused to go to Guanyin Temple. It seems that the journey of Kunlun is not a dream, but a real one. And the two memories in my mind have never been integrated together, and I am very struggling.
I walked straight in. A deacon monk was removing dust from the temple, wearing plain clothes and robe. Seeing me in, I put down my work and went up to pay my respects: "Amitabha! Did the donor come back from the east?" I also gave the Buddha's tribute: "Amitabha! That's right." The monk said: "Master Xingyu has been waiting for a long time. Please follow me to the inner hall."
When I arrived in the inner hall, I met Master Xingyu again. It was no different from three years ago. I still had a silver-eyed and white robe, kind-eyed eyes, holding a string of Buddhist beads. As soon as I saw me, I got up, folded my hands together, and said, "Amitabha. You are finally back. Please sit down quickly."
"I was not a monk from Putuo Mountain, but one of the many monks traveling around the world. Look at me again, but I am familiar with it?" After Master Xingyu said, I looked up and saw that there were slight changes around him. He was wearing a white gauze robe and a white crown on his head, pure and solemn. He lowered his eyebrows, smiled with his lips, the nectar in the bottle was always sprinkled, and the branches in his hand were indifferent to autumn - isn't this the compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva?
"Haha, in fact, I am just a clone of Guanyin Bodhisattva. There is no color, no form, no male form, nor female form, no form, no form, no form, no form, no need to worry too much about identity issues, I am also in the world. I know about your trip to Kunlun. What I want to tell you today is what Master Hongjun failed to finish." In his words, Guanyin Bodhisattva transformed back into the appearance of Master Xingyu.
"At the beginning of the period, my Buddha Shakyamuni was exiled. As the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha, you began to live in the world for reasons. In the first life, you were the Shang emperor Xin, in the second life, Jin Qiaojue, who returned from Korea, and in the third life, Ata Varpa, the Inca king in the deep valley. The divine dog Diting was all around you in the third life, the first life was your Grand Tutor Wen Zhong, and in the second life, the white dog "Shanting" who came from Korea, and in the third life, you were your younger brother Garcia Inca." After saying this, Master Xingyu nodded and leaned over, indicating that this point had been said and he wanted to say another meaning.
"Although you have the memory of Ksitigarbha, you have not completely digested it. The two memories are in conflict with each other in your body. However, you have to know that these are all you. The so-called 'Who am I, who am I when I was born?'. Since you have already obtained memory, the cultivation of Buddhism will naturally be the same. But Ata Varpa's memory will become your bond. The former is a Bodhisattva who has great wisdom, and the latter is a person with flesh and blood. But if both are done well, you are a Bodhisattva with flesh and blood." Master Xingyu pointed out very clearly. It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is what I need to do.
"What was the battle between Shang and Zhou dynasties?" I am eager to figure out everything now, but I am still Ata Valpa. Jin Qiaojue's memory is just a memory for me.
"If you want to talk about the battle between Shang and Zhou, I should talk about it slowly from Hongjun Daozu. After Pangu created the world, his body was silent, and his spiritual consciousness turned into Hongjun Daozu. According to general terms, Pangu's essence turned into Taishang Laojun, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Sect Master, and was accepted as disciples by Hongjun Daozu, and founded the People's Sect, the Anthology and the Jie Sect respectively. However, people in the world do not know that there is another ray of essence turned into the Western Sect Master - the Guiting Taoist, that is, the Amitabha Buddha you saw in Kunlun. In addition, there is another ray of essence missing." Master Xingyu seemed to have entered a state of memory.
"Amitabha Buddha was in charge of the Western religion, which is the present Western Pure Land. At that time, the Taishang Laojun went west to Hangu Pass and turned into Hu to become a Buddha, which was to help Taoist Ren Deng establish the Buddhist teachings and control the current Posa World. The Buddha Ren Deng also became the ancestor of all Buddhas of the Buddhist teachings. Shakyamuni Buddha, the Bodhisattvas and the Heavenly Kings, were not only Buddhas in the Western Pure Land, but also the managers who managed and saved the Posa World. Only by understanding the sufferings of the Posa World can one obtain the joy of the Pure Land." It seems that the Shang and Zhou dynasties are really long.
Master Xingyu then told the whole story.
As time goes by, the Heavenly Court and the world gradually established relevant orders. But over time, changes gradually occurred. First, the Emperor Taihao, the Emperor of Fuxi, was born, and then gave up his throne to retreat with the Supreme Supreme God of Haotian Golden Palace, and naturally had the Supreme Jade Emperor of Mira, the Jade Emperor. The Emperor of Jade not only sincerely studied Taoism, but also devoted himself to practicing Buddhism, which was more convenient for the communication and cooperation between the entire gods and Buddhas. In the world, the human race and the demon race were endless, and the expounding of the sects, the sects, and the human race were also disintegrated, with wars and social turmoil. Especially after the extinction of Sakyamuni Buddha, the Buddhist teachings of the world were missing a corner, and the suppressed demonic nature in the bodies of each race was dispersed, and even some gods were no exception, and the various religions were also different from each other.
When divine nature, human nature, and demon nature are gradually swallowed up by demon nature, all orders in the world begin to be destroyed. The little god's five hundred years of disaster and the great god's one thousand five hundred years of disaster, the heroes on earth rise, the demon world is full of mountains, everything becomes unorganized.
Hongjun Daozu saw it, but there was no way to follow it. In the end, with the Jade Emperor, in the name of the God of God, he used a human change to achieve a new balance, so that he could truly return to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, protecting the foundation of Buddhism and clarifying the world.
Master Xingkong also said that there is no real written record of the entire Shang Dynasty history. It is a one-sided legend composed of far-fetched and over-introduction of the text since the Zhou Dynasty.
In fact, Emperor Xin was not as cruel and indecent as described in later literature and history. On the contrary, he was a king who was kind and powerful, filial and righteous. It was just that his achievements were overwhelmed by the words after the Zhou Dynasty with Chaoge's breakthrough. The demise of the Shang Dynasty was not caused by the mistakes of the ruling people, but by the demonic nature of gods, people and demons that concealed the truth and deceived the great righteousness of the world.
"Amitabha! Everything is the suffering of the world." After Master Xingyu said this, he chanted the Buddha's name for a long time. It seemed that this Buddha's name could let go of the turmoil in his heart.
"The reason why Shakyamuni Buddha in the world of Posa chose Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva as the ‘Agent Buddha’ at the beginning of his nirvana was because of the great filial piety of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. At that time, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva was a Brahmin girl. Her mother practiced the evil path and fell into hell after she died. The Brahmin girl sold her family property and offered it to the Buddha. She was sincere and respectful, and was filial to heaven and earth. Her mother was able to leave hell because of her filial piety. When Shakyamuni Buddha was silent, she made a great vow, "Hell is not empty, and she will not become a Buddha." She wholeheartedly protects the foundation of the Dharma and maintains the spread of Buddhism. If her mother is filial, she will be even more filial to my Buddha. Besides, there are not many gods and Buddhas in the world of Posa. "Master Xingyu cuts the topic into Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
"However, I don't know that Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is not only a great filial piety, but after entering the world and walking into the world, he has another feeling. My Buddha's four elements are empty and the six senses are pure, but what he emphasizes is not to avoid or not to know, but to be calm and calm. However, if he has not picked it up, how can he let go? The reason why Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva has not truly returned is that he has not let go of the word "love" and has not passed the love barrier."
"The Bodhisattva is a great compassionate and compassionate practice with flesh and blood, not a cold-blooded practice without emotion. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva is not wrong in this regard, but in this life, there is no relationship that can begin well and end with regret. If a good man believes in my Buddha and cannot get the true result of love, fearing that this world will eventually disappear, how can we spread our wisdom and protect the Dharma?" Master Xingyu said these words in emotion and reason. The purpose of the world seems to be that only as an ordinary person can we know the suffering of ordinary people. If a son is not a fish, how can we know the joy of fish? If a son is not a fish, how can we know the suffering of fish!
"Thinking about the love between Emperor Xin and Su Daji can be regarded as an ancient legend, but in the end it was a separation of life and death, and later generations criticized all kinds of rumors and rumors were everywhere. Now, as the Inca king of the hidden Inca Empire, Marinali, as the Inca queen, has never been able to achieve success. Now you are still unknown in life and death, and are worried about it."
"Memories are a bridge, which is the prison that leads to the heart. I hope these will not affect your emotions. But all of this comes from you and ends with you. You will give yourself a result, and you will also give Su Daji and Marinali a result. In this way, you will have to let go." Master Xingyu was not wrong. As he said these things, my heart was still mixed.
"Let's go for a walk by the beach. It's probably inappropriate to welcome your return on such a heavy topic, but this is the only way." Master Xingyu's words broke my mood. We raised our feet and went out to the beach.
Today I plan for the fourth update, please collect, collect, and collect.
Chapter completed!
