The fifth prince was thoughtful while listening to this voice.
This is why Luo Chen was asking the prince from the beginning.
Because if it were just scriptures and Buddhist cicada singing, Luo Chen could simulate a large area with a wave of his hand.
However, the Buddhist sutras produced by Sakyamuni's true voice are always simulated, and the sound does not contain the immeasurable power and infinite sound of enlightenment.
Enlightenment is the beauty that allows people to escape from the sea of suffering and the troubles of the world.
Of course, enlightened people will gradually break away from their human nature and become Buddhas or other living beings.
Many people of the Xi ethnic group were chanting along with the Buddhist scriptures and understanding some of its contents.
Luo Chen and the fifth prince looked at the people of the Xi clan, who were changing one by one at this moment.
“Is this what righteous thoughts lead to enlightenment?”
"Are you yearning for the light?" the fifth prince asked.
"You have to admire Sakyamuni's talent and attainments in this area. He has great wisdom in escaping from reincarnation and liberating from cause and effect." Luo Chen praised.
After all, these are sages, just like Lao Tzu. They are seniors who deserve respect and recognition. In some aspects, they have indeed gone very far.
It’s just that later Buddhas spread rumors and spread rumors, which changed their taste.
Many people in the temple only know how to enforce the precepts and chant sutras, which is boring and boring without thinking about the meaning of the sutras.
They even revised the teachings handed down by Sakyamuni.
"Does it have any effect if he recites it?" the fifth prince murmured.
"Uncle Fang, what is a truly enlightened person?" the fifth prince asked.
They have a tacit understanding because they both know that time is running out.
So the fifth prince cherishes everything he has now!
Because goodbye, maybe what we have to wait for is no longer as simple as a dream.
"Are you enlightened?" Luo Chen looked up at the sky.
"You have become enlightened."
"Ah?" the fifth prince said in shock.
"The enlightenment of ordinary people must be to give up the seven emotions and six desires, and to give up all kinds of miscellaneous thoughts."
"The next step is to do what ordinary people can do, and then learn to visualize, I am not me, I am not me!" Luo Chen explained.
Three people appeared in his palm.
"True me, id, ego!"
"The ego is identity, memory, and personality!"
"The ego is your identity as the fifth prince. You remember Uncle Fang, you lived with Uncle Fang, and you dreamed that the Queen would abuse you!"
"These are the ego, they are not the real you, the ego!"
"The reason why people in the world suffer is because they are stuck in ego and are attached to a certain person, a certain relationship, a certain job, a certain social status!" Luo Chen said.
He didn't explain it in arcane or First Age terms.
Instead, he explained it in modern vernacular, because for the fifth prince, he had seen Luo Chen's past and naturally knew the world, so he could understand it.
"This is actually inevitable. As soon as we are born, we are in the ego. As soon as we are born, we are children. We even have to pick a name and get an ID card."
"But your ID card is not you, your name is not you, and your children are not you. These can represent you, but they are not the real you!"
"This is what the scriptures call falsehood within the void!"
"You can have many identities!" Luo Chen pointed to the teacup, which showed the birth of the fifth prince.
"Remember in the last life, I told you that I will not be your mother, so that you don't hold grudges. The reason is the same, because it is just an ego." Luo Chen said.
"Many people are obsessed with, this is mine, that is mine, my house, my car, my children's grades. Because of their ego, they compare themselves."
"Even in the Eternal Court, there are still people who are obsessed with the position of emperor."
"Uncle Fang, how do you let go of your ego?"
"You've already picked it up, why can't you put it down?" Luo Chen said.
The fifth prince already had a cup of tea in his hand.
The fifth prince was holding the cup of tea and wanted to put it down, but he seemed unable to put it down.
"What you can't let go of is your thoughts, your heart, and your ego!"
“If you can’t let go, don’t insist on letting it go!”
"Otherwise it will just increase your ego. When it's time to let it go, you will naturally let it go!" Luo Chen said.
At this moment, the fifth prince was still holding the tea cup, but he didn't want to put it down. His mind was calm and the tea cup was no longer heavy.
"Or you can be like me, never picked it up, how can you put it down?" Luo Chen said, stretching out his hand.
The fifth prince looked at Luo Chen's hand. Luo Chen's hand was clean and there was nothing in it.
"These are the two ways of self-grasping. Some people will naturally let go of their self-grasping when they die."
"Once a person dies, his or her identity, status, and relationship with the world are naturally severed, and self-grasping disappears."
"Of course some people are so obsessed with it that they are still stuck in their own ego even after they die!" Luo Chen looked at the people of the Xi tribe.
These souls are still in the ego, and they not only affect the ego, but also the true self!
"Some people let go of their ego while they are still alive!"
"So actually, whether you are enlightened or not, you are still considered enlightened!"
"Is it because my uncle Fang's memory is also ego-obsessed?"
"Yes!" Luo Chen said.
"But I can't let go!" Tears burst into the eyes of the fifth prince.
"So, I said, if you can't let it go, then you can't let it go. When you should let it go, you will naturally let it go. When you shouldn't let it go, just let it go!"
"Don't force me to let go!" Luo Chen said.
"Born in the world of mortals, why should we avoid the world?"
"We are already in the pure land, so why bother to achieve enlightenment?" Luo Chen said leisurely.
"The heart moves, the thought arises, the cause arises, the heart changes, the thought changes, the environment changes!"
Luo Chen's words made the fifth prince somewhat confused.
But the fifth prince still firmly planned to remember and did not want to forget every word Luo Chen taught.
"Obsession is also a thought. It doesn't matter to me whether you let it go or not. Not everyone wants to become a Buddha, everyone wants to become a Sakyamuni!"
"Life is colorful, there is no need to turn into a fish to be a butterfly!"
"There is no need to aspire to be a piece of wind if it is a stone!"
"There is no need for grass to envy birds that can fly!"
"All things are colorful, just be yourself and be yourself!" Luo Chen continued to teach.
"Uncle Fang, is this the charm of life?"
"Yes, if there was only one kind of life and one species in this world, it would actually be boring."
"So you don't have to be attached to anything. When you are not attached, you will be enlightened!" Luo Chen said.
"Life is always self-sufficient, and life itself has its own laws and journey!"
"There's no need to be too demanding!" Luo Chen said.
"Of course, sometimes it is necessary to bring order out of chaos."
