There are one hill and eight buildings in the Northern Prefecture of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Chapter 4160 The lives of all sentient beings in the six realms of reincarnation
Chapter 4160 The lives of all sentient beings in the six realms of reincarnation
The black robe smiled slightly: "To break the equality of everyone, we must use the equality of all living beings, and this is the core of Buddhism."
A look of incredible surprise flashed across Yu Yue's face: "All living beings are equal? What is this?"
Heipao said calmly: "All living beings are equal, that is, all living things in the world, whether they are gods and Buddhas, demons, ghosts, humans, animals, birds, fish, flowers, plants and trees, they are all alive. As long as they are alive, they are alive."
All are equal, this is the so-called six paths of reincarnation."
Yu Yue nodded thoughtfully and said: "I have heard about this. The six paths are not only the divine way, the immortal way, but also the human way, the ghost way, and the animal way. Buddhism pays attention to reincarnation and cultivation. You may be a human in this life, and you may be an animal in the next life. That is
The so-called six paths of reincarnation, right?"
The black robe smiled slightly: "It seems that Mr. Yu has some research on the six paths of reincarnation. However, Buddhism talks about the equality of all living beings in the six paths. This is a higher level than everyone being equal. In other words, there is a hidden secret behind it.
.”
Yu Yue laughed: "Yes, all living beings are equal, but everyone wants to become gods and Buddhas. If they can't become gods, they also want to become ghosts and monsters with powerful power. If they can't do it, they can only be human. If they are below humans,
The animal way is like cattle, sheep, and ants being slaughtered by humans. If it doesn't work, it will eventually turn into flowers and plants, which will be eaten by animals. It won't even let out a scream, and it will be miserable."
The black robe nodded: "Yes, so if after reincarnation, the sins are too serious and cannot be washed away, then you will not be able to become a god, you will not be able to become a demon, you will not even be able to be a human again, you will only be an animal or a flower. This is
Buddhism uses words to scare the world and persuade them not to do evil but to accumulate virtue and do good. After all, no one knows what happens after death and cannot deny it, but everyone is afraid of doing too much evil and going to hell and suffering after death.
Not to mention suffering, but also reincarnation as animals and flowers. This is the equality of all living beings. Rather than equality, it is better to say that the hierarchy has reached the extreme. Evil will be rewarded with evil, and good will be rewarded with good. It is not that there will be no reward. The time has not come yet. The time has come.
Once we arrive, everything will be reported.”
Yu Yue raised his lips disapprovingly: "It's just some deceptive words. Buddhists say they can't prove that there are no things after death, but I can also ask him to prove that there is hell, reincarnation, and reincarnation after death.
Is there such a thing? He can't come up with it either. He just uses the fear of people, especially ordinary people and ignorant people, to make up some punishment for good and punishment for evil. If the Buddha is really so compassionate
"If you are really so capable, why are there so many evil people running rampant and domineering in this world, while honest good people are often as humble as ants?"
The black robe smiled slightly: "Yu Gong is considering the problem from your Taoist standpoint. You only see the first one, but not the second. Let me follow up on your last sentence: Evil people are running rampant and domineering, isn't it?
Because of the retribution in this life, it is because of the good deeds and blessings in the previous life that we enjoy the blessings in this life. In other words, if we use this life to do good deeds and do good things, the karma we have created and the evil we have done will not be the same after death.
You have to go to hell to suffer torture and atone for your sins, and then be reincarnated as an animal or a flower to be slaughtered by others, and then go and earn your blessings."
Yu Yue raised the corner of his mouth in disdain: "Hmph, so to speak, if you are bullied and manipulated by others in this life, then you are accumulating virtue and cultivating your talents? It means that you will be able to enjoy happiness in the next life? Then what kind of person are you? Just go to the root cause
If you feed the sheep with grass, won't it mean that you will be rewarded well in the next life?"
The black robe smiled and waved his hand: "That won't work. If you don't cultivate enough and you give you too little food, it's not enough to be a blessing for a person. So sometimes it takes several lifetimes to cultivate this kind of life and the fate of being a rich and noble person.
, Just like you, Mr. Yu, if according to Buddhist theory, you, a leader of a family who was born with good fortune and is now in a high position, would probably have to practice the Way of Animals and Flowers and Plants for dozens of lives before you can reach this level.
What is the fate of this life?"
Yu Yue sneered and said: "I believe he is a ghost. He has practiced for dozens of lives, suffered for dozens of lives, been eaten by people and eaten by animals. Then I still say that I will suffer as a human in this life. I have to suffer all day long.
I am planning this and guarding against that, and now I have to sit here with you in the grass to talk about mysteries for the sake of the survival of the family and the inheritance of the organization. Then, can I practice the path of immortality, stay away from the world, and stop worrying!"
Heipao said calmly: "So, this is the power of Buddhism. All living beings in the world have troubles. Ordinary people work hard for a living. Even wealthy people, such as Yu Gong, also have your sufferings. So, all living beings have their own troubles.
We all suffer. In this secular world, we must accumulate virtue and practice, so that we can achieve positive results in the future and escape from the sea of suffering. What is this? This is hope. In Buddhism, all living beings are equal and the six paths of reincarnation are actually the most attractive thing behind them.
This, hope."
Yu Yue murmured to himself: "Hope, hope? That suffering in this life is a blessing, that accumulating virtue and doing good deeds, and then there is hope of escaping from the sea of suffering?"
The black robe nodded: "Yes, as I told you just now, if you fall into the realm of animals or flowers and plants, you will be killed by people or eaten by animals as soon as you come out. This accumulation of virtue is too small, and it will be painful and miserable.
There are not many blessings to be achieved, but it is different as a human being. Human life is very long. If you have power, you can do many meritorious things, such as rescuing those who are dying, building water conservancy projects to benefit all people,
A truce is beneficial to the common people, and that is a great blessing. Of course, the greatest blessing is to worship the Buddha, propagate the Dharma, respect the Buddha, and build temples. This is an immeasurable merit. Not to mention achieving righteousness, even in this life, it can
Get good rewards.”
At this point, Heipao laughed: "Just like Yao Xing, the leader of the Later Qin Dynasty, his father Yao Chang was a tyrant who was full of evil. He did all kinds of evil. Logically speaking, he should have died ten thousand times, but he still became the founder of the country.
Your Majesty, according to Buddhist teachings, these barbarian countries in the north were built by ferocious tigers and wolves. They have karma and should have perished in a few lifetimes to repay their karma."
"But the Later Qin Dynasty was able to survive because Yao Xing was a benevolent person, accumulated good deeds, and most importantly respected Buddhism. He invited Kumarajiva to spread the Dharma, so the Buddha would also bless him to turn defeat into victory and win the war.
The tigers and wolves who retreated from Hu Xia. On the other hand, Helian Bobo was able to defeat the Later Qin numerous times and kill the soldiers and civilians. This was because the Later Qin was repaying the sins of Yao Chang when he seized the throne. You see, almost everyone in the Later Qin Dynasty does not believe this statement.
I doubt it, otherwise, why would Later Qin send troops to assist Jin this time?"
