Chapter 5315 All living beings suffer and benefit the Buddha
Doupeng smiled slightly: "Do you think I am a god? I know five hundred years before and five hundred years later? Although Heipao and I have some magical power, it is not enough for us to open our eyes and predict the future. If we had
With this ability, will he be able to support Liu Yu back then and become a formidable enemy now?"
Kumarajiva said coldly: "You bet on more than one side. This is your way of doing things. Just like in the north, you supported Tuoba Si, the Yao Qiang people, and Helian Bobo.
You have secretly helped various forces in Liangzhou, for example, Lu Guang and you have also become allies, followed by the Tufa clan and the Juqu clan from Southern Liang and Northern Liang. Without your help, they would not be able to cause trouble."
Doupeng smiled and said: "Yes, many of these aids were made jointly between you and me back then. You also contributed a lot. You hated Lu Guang so much for destroying your homeland and kidnapping you to the Central Plains. Didn't I rely on
Is it the beginning of our cooperation to help you take revenge? The Liang Dynasties rose up and divided Lu Guang's territory of Houliang, causing other countries to lose their families. Finally, you went to Houqin and became the leading Buddhist master in the Central Plains. Wouldn't it be easier?
Are you in a small city-state like Kucha?"
Kumarajiva sighed: "I still miss my hometown, Qiuci, where I can feel peace and tranquility. In the Central Plains, my fame is getting bigger and bigger, and my followers are getting more and more, but
I have also seen endless war and darkness, especially working with people like you, which makes my conscience uneasy. I ask myself every day, if I continue like this, can I really ascend to become a Buddha and achieve perfect merits?"
Doopeng smiled and said: "If it weren't for such a troubled time, how could there be so many people wanting to be your disciples? Just like the current Later Qin Dynasty, if it weren't for the emergence of Helian Bobo, the nobles would not dare to join the army and go to the battlefield.
, how can your temple have so many children of noble officials joining, and where can you get so much money for incense? Great monk, everything has two sides, good and bad, you can't just take advantage and not suffer losses. In this troubled world, it's not all
What we want is that we selected some people to support and fund it at the beginning, but to what extent it will develop later is not entirely up to us."
"Just like Tianshi Dao, Sun En's army did use a lot of resources given by us, but can we completely control him? He launched troops to massacre and plunder in the land of San Wu, killing thousands of miles of red land in Wu, and the people were ten thousand
Save two or three, is this the result we want? So we later had to let Liu Laozhi lead the army and recruit Liu Yu as general again to curb Sun En's crazy behavior, and even more so when Sun En was defeated
After that, let Lu Xun and Xu Daofu succeed him. This is what we should do with this world, which is to maintain general stability as much as possible while meeting the sacrifices and sacrifices we need. Otherwise, if the world is gone,
What good do people do to us?"
Kumarajiva gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Are you trying to say that the more people you harm and the more people in the world suffer, the more I will have more disciples and the greater my merits?"
Doupeng laughed and said: "If it hadn't been for the war between the gods in Tianzhu and the creation of terrible kings like the Peacock King who slaughtered the world, how could Buddhism be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people? Everything has two sides, and we, the gods and immortals of China, need the human world
The sacrifice and suffering are the source of strength, and the development and growth of your Buddhist school must be based on the fact that all living beings are suffering, seeing through the world of mortals, and not loving the world. Essentially, what is the difference between you and us? If the world is peaceful, people will
People live a happy life and have plenty of food and clothing, so why should they believe in your Buddhism?"
Kumarajiva shook his head: "Peace in the world means peace in everyone's heart. Kings, generals, and ministers do not want to start wars at will for the so-called merits. Now Buddhism has not been thoroughly carried forward in China. We want people's hearts to be kind.
It still takes time, but I will never agree that in order to make Buddhism stronger, it has to harm the world like you and make all sentient beings suffer. If I really think this way, no matter how many disciples I have, Buddha will never do it.
Forgive me."
Doupeng smiled slightly: "Look, great monk, you can't turn around when it comes to this. I don't want you to start a war like us. Look, now I'm not helping you quell the war and make the world peaceful."
Well. From now on, it is not our Tiandao League who will start wars and bring peace to the world, but the emperors of the world such as Liu Yu, Helian Bobo and Tuoba Si."
Kumarajiva's eyes narrowed slightly: "So, you want me to use an eminent monk like Huiyuan to oppose Liu Yu in the Jin Kingdom and make Liu Yu's Northern Expedition plan completely bankrupt and unable to be realized?"
Doupeng's eyes flashed coldly: "Yes, the failure of Tianshi Dao proves that it is impossible for me to overthrow Liu Yu through military means within the Jin Dynasty. There are only three ways to stop him at the moment. One is
It was difficult to make him fall out with the noble family and cut off his ability to collect taxes from the family's manor, but with Liu Muzhi and Wang Miaoyin here, this was difficult, especially after he defeated Tianshi Dao and gained his prestige.
."
Kumarajiva said coldly: "You still didn't seize the opportunity and didn't let Tianshi Tao succeed in Jiankang, which led to this result. It's too late to regret now."
Doupeng said solemnly: "I don't want to recall the past, I only want to talk about the future. The second way is to find a way to provoke conflicts within Liu Yu's Beifu Army Group, so that Liu Yi or other army generals
, people who were not so obedient, such as Zhuge Changmin and Tan Shao, fought for power with Liu Yu, and even the young marshals and generals who attracted him also came together to oppose Liu Yu. I'm afraid Tao Yuanming needs to think more about this point.
There is a way, and he is indeed making plans for this goal, but to be honest, I don't think there is much hope, because Liu Yu is afraid that after this battle, he will also be ready to retire the veteran generals from active service and hand over military power to the younger generation.
The young marshals are ready to take over. In this battle with Tianshi Dao, Wang Zhene has replaced Liu Jingxuan's command, which is proof."
Kumarajiva sighed: "It is unlikely that Liu Yi will surrender the army obediently, but if other veteran generals do this, especially Liu Jingxuan who takes the lead, he will be isolated and helpless, because all the young marshals will
Thinking of taking over his legion, Liu Yu did not bring Liu Yi with him in the battle to pacify Tianshi Dao this time, leaving him with no achievements. He just did not hold him responsible for the previous defeat. He was not promoted or demoted. This was a good move.
If someone else is prepared to replace Liu Yi, I don't see how Liu Yi can keep his army." (End of Chapter)
