"Buddha has no form, there is Buddha in the heart, and all living beings are Buddhas."
"What is Dharma?"
"The law is boundless. Only when evil is driven away can there be law."
Tianguan Mountain was agitated. The Buddhist debate among the Buddhists began. At first, they kept it secret, but in the end, they began to quote various allusions to explain their own views.
When Liu Tian arrived, the debate had already heated up. But so far, no dark horse has emerged.
Liu Tian came to the crowd and said, "Excuse me, who are the top three young people?"
A group of Buddhists looked at Liu Tian as if they were fools: "You don't even know who the top three young people are? What a weirdo. Did you see that over there is Fang Shaode, the third young man? Next to him is the second young man.
Man Meng Ling Bodhisattva. As for the number one young man, have you seen him? He is the one who is sitting on a futon without moving."
Liu Tian looked around and saw the three people the Buddhists were pointing to. What surprised him was that Fang Shaode was actually the third young master. This made him slightly surprised. In his eyes, Dongmen Yu's cultivation level was even higher.
Slightly higher than Fang Shaode. But then Liu Tian understood in his heart that Dongmenyu might have an advantage in cultivation, but he might not be as proficient in Buddhism as the others.
"Then who is the fourth young man to tell us?"
Liu Tian originally wanted to directly challenge the top three masters, but he could not challenge the first three, Fang Shaode. Meng Ling Bodhisattva was a female generation, and his subconscious did not want to bully women. As for the young number one, Liu Tian found that the opponent was very
Sitting like a rock, it seems as if it has weathered. This is compatible with the environment! This young man's first-class Buddhist attainments are certainly not simple.
"Why are there so many of you?" The male Buddhists were all surprised, but they still pointed with their hands, "The fourth one is Dongmenyu. If you want to challenge, I advise you not to challenge Dongmenyu. It is said that he has a cold personality.
If you don't agree with me, you'll be killed."
Liu Tian smiled faintly and said noncommittally, "What about the fifth person?"
"The fifth person is next to the east gate..."
"Thank you." Liu Tian thanked the other party before finishing the introduction, and walked straight towards the fifth young man.
"This man is so strange. He doesn't want to challenge the fifth young man, Luo Yuan, right?"
"It should be. It looks like there is something good to watch."
"I hope this person has real material. He is not just trying to please others or being arrogant."
The eyes of a group of male Buddhists shone brightly, and they finally felt hopeful after the debate.
While the Buddhists were discussing, Liu Tian had already arrived in front of the fifth person and sat cross-legged on the ground. Before the fifth person could speak, Liu Tian directly got to the point: "What is the most precious thing in life?"
"It's started, it's started. This person started asking questions as soon as he came. It seems he came well prepared!"
The male Buddhists are already looking forward to it.
When the fifth young hero heard Liu Tian's words, he was neither sad nor happy, and said: "In life, everything is the same. If you are paranoid, you will become a devil."
Liu Tian knew that Luo Yuan was practicing Tai Chi, so he did not answer directly and said, "You mean, being without sorrow or joy is a Buddha?"
"My Buddha is merciful. My love fills the world. How can I say that I am neither sad nor happy?"
Luo Yuan is obviously a smart man. When it comes to Liu Tian's questions, he always avoids the important ones and ignores the easy ones, so as not to be caught by the other party.
Liu Tian smiled, not in a hurry, and asked again: "What is the most precious thing in life?"
"I said it. If you are paranoid, you will become a demon. If you have precious people and things, you will have a worldly mind." Luo Yuan clasped his hands together and sighed.
On the side, male Buddhists have already begun to discuss: "Luo Yuan is worthy of being the fifth young master, and his words are airtight."
"It seems like it still won't work. This guy's Dharma is obviously not as good as Luo Yuan's. Most likely he won't succeed."
Buddhists are not optimistic about Liu Tian's debate.
Liu Tian naturally heard the discussion of the Buddhists. After a faint smile, his expression suddenly turned cold and he shouted softly: "Absurd!"
This soft drink was so sudden that it shocked all the Buddhists. They didn't expect why Liu Tian suddenly shouted coldly. Is there something wrong with Luo Yuan's words? Was he caught?
"Is this... unreasonable?"
The Buddhists thought Liu Tian was crazy because he wanted to win.
Liu Tian ignored the comments of the spectators and continued: "Buddha walked among the sea of people, experienced all kinds of sufferings in the world, and wholeheartedly spread the Dharma. I, the Buddha, am compassionate and solve people's doubts. The Buddha wholeheartedly spreads the Dharma and spreads the branches and leaves. But according to your instructions
I mean, didn’t Buddha’s paranoia also make him a devil? You say you are ridiculous or not!”
Stunned, all the Buddhists were stunned, including Luo Yuan. He didn't expect that Liu Tian would immediately label him as a treasonous person. But he was still calm: "No. I am devoted to Buddha. There is no need to be paranoid. I have Buddha in my heart.
A person becomes a Buddha."
Luo Yuan explained carefully, but Liu Tian could no longer be aggressive: "If you have a Buddha in your heart, you will become a Buddha. Okay. Then let me ask you again, what is the most precious thing in life?"
Luo Yuan did not answer. Liu Tian's question was really difficult to answer. He didn't know how to speak for a moment.
At this time, the onlookers around were shocked. Liu Tian actually silenced the fifth master by asking the question. This clearly meant that he had the upper hand.
"This person is indeed well prepared! Luo Yuan will probably lose this time. This question may seem simple, but it hides a sinister plot."
"Yes, there are too many answers to this question. Everyone has his or her own opinion. But it's also true that having more answers makes it easier to refute the other person's point of view. Absolutely, absolutely!"
Luo Yuan naturally thought of what the Buddhists thought of, so he didn't know how to answer for a while, but soon, he smiled faintly and asked instead: "Fellow Taoist cares so much about this question, he must have some understanding. In this case
, what do you think is the most precious thing in life?"
The male Buddhists who were watching were stunned, and then they all praised him.
"High! High! This move is truly exquisite. It kicks the problem back."
"Yes, this kid was tricked by his own question. Now, no matter what answer he gave, Luo Yuan could refute his answer from other angles. And if he didn't answer, it meant that he didn't know what was the best answer.
Precious. Momentarily at a disadvantage."
"The fifth young master deserves to be the fifth master!"
Liu Tian seemed to have known that the other party would ask this question, and smiled lightly: "It seems that you are not confident in your answer, so you kicked the ball back to me. Forget it, let me tell you what is most precious."
Facing Liu Tian's ridicule, Luo Yuan did not get angry, but simply said: "I am all ears."
Liu Tian nodded and did not answer immediately, but began to tell a story: "Once upon a time, there was a Yuanyin Temple. Every day, many people offered incense and worshiped Buddha. The incense was very prosperous. There was a spider knot on the beam in front of the Yuanyin Temple.
After more than a thousand years of practice, the Buddha-nature of the spider has increased a lot."
Luo Yuan frowned slightly, as if he didn't expect Liu Tian to use a story to explain this answer. But he was not in a hurry. In his opinion, no matter what the story was, as long as there was an answer, he could refute it. After all, the answer to this question is real.
Too broad.
But he underestimated Liu Tian. Since Liu Tian dared to answer, he would naturally silence him!
Sure enough, Luo Yuan's expression changed as soon as Liu Tian's next words came out!
Liu Tiandao: "Suddenly one day, Lord Buddha came to Yuanyin Temple."
Liu Tian’s story is clearly about Lord Buddha!
Liu Tian didn't seem to see Luo Yuan's expression change, and still told the story calmly: "The Lord Buddha was very happy when he saw the incense here was very prosperous. When he left the temple, he raised his head and saw the spider on the beam. Lord Buddha
He stopped and asked the spider: "We are destined to meet each other after all. Let me ask you a question. Seeing that you have been practicing for more than a thousand years, how about I ask you a question?" The spider met the Buddha very quickly.
He was so happy that he quickly agreed. Then Lord Buddha asked: 'What is the most precious thing in the world?'"
As soon as Liu Tian said these words, Luo Yuan's face became paler. The male Buddhists around him took a deep breath. They all knew that Luo Yuan was going to lose! This is a story about the Buddha,
In other words, Liu Tian's answer was given by Lord Buddha! Does Luo Yuan dare to refute?
"The spider thought for a while and replied: 'The most precious things in the world are 'cannot get' and 'lost'."
Liu Tian's voice continued to come.
"The Lord Buddha nodded and left. Another thousand years passed like this, and the spider was still practicing on the beams of Yuanyin Temple, and its Buddha nature greatly increased. One day, the Lord Buddha came to the temple again and said to
Spider said: 'Are you okay? Do you have any deeper understanding of the problem a thousand years ago?' Spider said: 'I think the most precious things in the world are 'cannot get' and 'lost'.'
Lord Buddha said: 'If you think about it more carefully, I will come to you again.'"
When Liu Tian said this, many male Buddhists were already immersed in the situation, and they were all secretly guessing why the Buddha asked the same question twice. Could it be that the spider's answer was wrong?
They are all looking forward to Liu Tian's next story.
"Another thousand years later, one day, a strong wind blew, and the wind blew a drop of nectar onto the spider. The spider looked at the nectar and saw that it was crystal clear and beautiful, and he fell in love with it. The spider looked at the nectar every day and was very happy.
Happy, it felt that these were the happiest days in three thousand years. Suddenly, another strong wind blew and the nectar was blown away. The spider suddenly felt that it had lost something and felt very lonely and sad. At this time, the Lord Buddha came again
, asked the spider: "Spider, in these thousand years, have you thought carefully about this question: What is the most precious thing in the world?" The spider thought of nectar and said to the Lord Buddha: "The most precious thing in the world is 'not getting' and
'Lost'. The Lord Buddha said: 'Well, since you have this understanding, I will let you go to the human world for a while.'
As Liu Tian's story deepens, more and more male Buddhists are attracted by Liu Tian's story. In their opinion, Liu Tian's story is the real Buddhism! In the Western Desert, any allusions about the Lord Buddha are
They are all treasures! Only the great sects deserve to own them, because any story about the Lord Buddha can give people a deeper understanding of the Buddha.
