In this way, a little-known cooking monk suddenly came into everyone's sight. This man was like the sweeping monk who suddenly appeared in "Dragon Babu" and defeated many masters in one fell swoop.
The storm swept the monk circle, and he soon became the favorite disciple of the Fifth Patriarch Hongren and the number one seed in the Zen sect's mantle!
Facts have proved that those who can shine are those who have some ability. The title of the Sixth Patriarch of Zen is not for nothing. After the death of the Fifth Patriarch, Huineng took over Zen, lectured everywhere, and promoted Buddhism. He soon became a
He was a well-known eminent monk, and what added a lot of mystery to this eminent monk was his corpse.
Of course, out of respect, we all call him Jin Shen, because the monk's corpse is different from that of ordinary people. A monk was sitting there, wearing cassocks. The person died, but the body did not rot. It has been passed down for thousands of years.
It still looks like a mummy with no signs of corruption. This matter has been rumored to be miraculous. There are different opinions as to why this is the case.
Buddhists say that Patriarch Huineng has a golden body. This kind of thing has happened all over the country. Most of the people who have this kind of situation are Zen leaders or enlightened masters. The reason is still
Inner cultivation.
In Theravada Buddhism, the monks have different levels of cultivation and are divided into four realms, which is what we call the first fruit "Sota-Panna fruit", the second fruit "Stragami fruit", and the third fruit "Anagami fruit"
, the four fruits "arhat fruit", these four represent the four stages of the spiritual practice.
Duan (attainment status), collectively called the "Four Fruits of Arhat", but as long as one can obtain one of them, he is considered an eminent monk, and those who can achieve Arhat fruit are even rarer. But once they reach this state, Buddhists
It is believed that this person has boundless magic power to create a vajra body.
Patriarch Huineng, after death, the body will not decay for thousands of years. This shows that his cultivation and realm have reached a certain height. It is natural and there is nothing to doubt.
Moreover, in the history of Zen Buddhism, there are others who are more powerful than him, such as Bodhidharma. When he went to the palace to lecture Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, he was prepared for a protracted war, but in the past
Everyone knows what the palace is like. Basically, within that ring of walls, the only two types of people who can have penises are the emperor and the emperor's son.
Although Patriarch Bodhidharma was a monk, he could easily get into trouble if he stayed in a place full of women for a long time. Not to mention him, wasn't the Buddha also entangled in scandals back then? So, on the one hand, it is against the rules
In order to gain respect, and on the other hand, in order to silence the world and gain enough trust for himself, Patriarch Bodhidharma entered the palace after "purification".
But everyone knows the result later. Something went wrong and it didn't work out. It seemed that Patriarch Bodhidharma made a fortune. However, according to relevant historical records, Patriarch Bodhidharma did some small things for himself.
After the operation, he miraculously recovered. In the words of the time, he was called "having supernatural powers and regenerating nature."
What does it mean? That is to say, this person has the ability to grow things that were originally gone. Therefore, in almost all the portraits of Bodhidharma, this person has a beard. We can think about it, if
This thing is true, then, this is really awesome, much more awesome than the idea that the body is indestructible and the King Kong is indestructible.
To be honest, this incident has surprised me for several days, but after checking the relevant information, it seems that there is really such a thing.
Bodhidharma's affairs were recognized by people at the time, and Huineng's golden body is still in the Nanhua Zen Temple in Guangdong Province.
I have seen the corpse, and it is indeed a human body. It has not decayed for 1,300 years, and the body has turned into a strange color similar to red sandalwood. Moreover, unlike most mummies that do not decay, Master Huineng's golden body is very peaceful.
However, while they were amazed, some people also questioned this, because the pictorial I read was controlled by the mainstream ideology, and you can guess the author's position with the soles of your feet.
According to their evidence, most of the evidence was the memories of some Red Guards during the ten years of turmoil, because since the death of Master Huineng, this golden body has always been respected. Even when the war burned down the temple, it was not
No one dares to touch it, but those Red Guards who are determined to wipe out all ghosts and monsters are different. That means they have no fear of heaven or earth.
In order to find out whether the golden body was real or fake, some people took kitchen knives and chopped off the golden body of Patriarch Huineng. It is said that it was cut open from the back. After opening it, it was found that there were strips of cloth and straw inside.
Ah, iron rods and so on, so everyone finally gave up their worries, cursed and booed for a while, saying that this crap was just to scare people, and it was basically a cover-up!
The so-called evidence in that pictorial almost all relayed this story in different tones. It seemed reasonable, but there was no solid evidence to support it. What made me even more speechless was that later I
The school library has also seen some discussions on this matter.
There were also some similar memoirs recounted in it, but those who claimed to have witnessed the whole incident said that after cutting open Huineng's golden body, everyone was shocked to find that the corpse had all the internal organs, and it was originally the same body.
A complete corpse without any tampering!
Seeing this scene, the Red Guard who attacked with a kitchen knife was so frightened that he peed, and the rest of the people were so frightened that they fled in panic and did not dare to come forward. Because of this, the body was spared and has been preserved to this day!
You see, in fact, if you carefully study the modern and contemporary Chinese documents, you will find that there are many similar things. Whether it is true or false, just take what one person says and dare to use it as evidence. If different people cite it, it can be their own.
It's contradictory, and regardless of whether it's right or wrong, the people speaking here pretend to be so confident that you won't even believe it.
Therefore, the more you know about some things, the more confused you feel. I have long been used to strange things like this. If I hadn’t experienced it personally or had enough confidence to speculate on the mystery, bizarre anecdotes like this would be strange to me.
I always listen to it as a piece of fun. Anyway, it is just to relieve boredom. Talking after tea and dinner is quite fun. It can please the audience and is harmless.
Especially silly girls like Ding Ling and Guigui, they most like to listen to me talk about similar things. Things that I had almost forgotten, I immediately remembered when I saw the four scrolls here.
