Although most of the Mongolian chiefs believed deeply in what Hu Lahachi conveyed to Sonam Gyatso, they did not take the lead in meeting "Xue Chan Khan" at this time because no one knew whether this identity could be accepted by the emperor.
Although Zhu Yijun has reached the pinnacle of public opinion building and other aspects, he never expected that Sonam Gyatso would give him such a hand - indeed, the theory of Xue Chan Khan's reincarnation was not arranged by him.
What Zhu Yijun didn't know was that Suonan Gyatso of the original time and space had also played this trick, but instead of saying that Emperor Wanli was the reincarnation of Kublai Khan, he said that Anda Khan was his reincarnation and announced it to the Mongolian tribes.
With this blessing, Amada Khan suddenly advanced from a branch of the golden bloodline, and his political status in the grassland was as solid as an iron barrel. Suonan Gyatso also used his influence on Amada Khan to help the Ming court maintain the grassland.
peace, and thus won the heartfelt love of the people of both ethnic groups.
Because of his contribution to national unity, he was highly regarded by later generations, who believed that he set a glorious example for the Dalai Lama who followed him. He was a wise man with wisdom, harmony, and understanding of the world. He was a beacon-like figure in the history of Tibetan Buddhism.
.
In fact, the Gelug sect of which Sonam Gyatso belonged had a great influence on the grasslands, but at this time, Tibet was in a very difficult situation, and those suppressed by the Karma Kagyu sect had almost no place to survive. [Note 1
]
The growth of the Gelug sect on the grasslands is inseparable from the support of the old Shunyi King Anda Khan, who strongly advocated the tribute of Anda. To be fair, King Shunyi was also a hero whose talents were outstanding in the world.
In the second year of Wanli, in order to increase the legitimacy of his rule, he sincerely invited the third generation of the Gelug sect, Sonam Gyatso, who was difficult to exercise in Tibet, to Qinghai to explain Buddhism to him. Sonam Gyatso keenly grasped the
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he overcame many obstacles and finally arrived in Qinghai in the fifth year of Wanli and met with Ada Khan.
During the conversation between the two parties, An Dahan "accidentally" mentioned the friendship between Phasiba and Kublai Khan.
Suonan Gyatso, who was in the original time and space, heard the elegant meaning of the string song and immediately said: "We have met not only today, but also in the past generations. When you were the grandson of Genghis Khan, Hubilai Chechen Khan, I was the nephew of Sakya Pandita.
"."Well, this is not the first time we have met. When you were Kublai Khan, I was Pa Siba.
But in this time and space, Suonan Gyatso made a different choice. In the first year of Wanli, Zhu Yijun had already paid attention to the issue of Tibetan Buddhism. At that time, Wang Chonggu, the governor of Xuanda, asked the imperial court to give instructions to the Honghua Chanjiao Temple.
Zhu Yijun made important instructions in the memorial of the Monk's Book of Sutras, pointing out that because the two palaces worshiped Buddhism, he had specially approved an internal fund of 50,000 yuan, and ordered Wang Chonggu to overhaul the Buddhist temple in the border area and translate the scriptures.
At that time, Zhu Yijun also gave instructions: "With the unification of the Celestial Dynasty, lamas, monks and others have enlightened the captives, and easy violence can lead to good deeds, and the merits will not be lost. It is extremely important and cannot be ignored."
This was the most important instruction he made after summoning Zhang Juzheng and gaining political power, second only to a severe crackdown. Of course, Wang Chonggu and other border governors attached great importance to it - for the sake of the family's descendants, they could not give eye drops to the young emperor. And to be honest,
When Zhu Yijun first took over the mess, fifty thousand taels of silver was considered a big deal.
After the instructions and money were issued, there was a small upsurge in building temples and translating scriptures in the Nine Borders. Suonan Gyatso keenly noticed the changes in the situation, began to pay attention to the court's policies, and gave some advice to his disciples.
request. He had an ambition at that time, hoping that the great protector of the Gelug sect would be in the Forbidden City.
Therefore, in the fifth year of Wanli, when faced with Ada Khan's suggestion, Suonan Gyatso replied: "The Mahayana Dharma King is the fifth Sakya Patriarch. He met Xue Chan Khan at Liupan Mountain and accomplished the supreme deeds of both parties. Today you and I meet in Yang Yang.
In the Hua Temple, if one is a king and the other is a monk, it does not necessarily mean that he will not be able to achieve the Buddha's teachings as the Wheel-turning King."
His answer contained a lot of information, but Idahan understood it all.
Sonam Gyatso means that Pasiba is the fifth-generation leader of the Sakya sect, which is different from my Gelug sect. I can't insist that I am his reincarnation - that's not true.
Secondly, what influence did the Sakya sect have before Phagpa came out? And several generations after Phagpa, the Sakya sect became weak again - this shows that their teachings are not good.
Sonam Gyatso also said, if you want me to say that one of us is the reincarnation of Kublai Khan and the other is Phagpa, then if I can’t get along with you, you will lose your rationality. However, you can ask
Xue Chan Khan studied and allowed all tribes in the grassland to deeply convert to the Gelug sect. Then, as the living Buddha of those who convert, I can say that you are the Buddha's King of Chakravartin - do you understand the meaning of wheel-turning? Don't talk about Kublai Khan.
Genghis Khan can do it!
In his words, Suonan Gyatso described the "Chabuqiyale Temple" as the "Yanghua Temple" named after Zhu Yijun, and did not mention its Tibetan name Teqin Qukeling (meaning Mahayana Continent).
A deeper hint: You are now the Shunyi King of the Ming Dynasty. Is the name of "Yanghua Temple" still the name you asked the emperor to give you? If you were the reincarnation of Kublai Khan, who would establish the imperial court, and where would the emperor be?
Earth, do you still want your greatest achievement, "I am paying tribute"? You know, those Han imperial courts are very concerned about face!
Anda Khan is also very powerful. Not only did he understand it, he also fully accepted Sonam Gyatso's opinions and required that each chieftain under his command must send one or two of his sons to become lamas in Yanghua Temple.
The Gelug sect leans.
Afterwards, the two had business interactions. Anda Khan gave Sonam Gyatso the title of "Holy Consciousness of Everything, Wazildala, Dalai Lama", and Sonam Gyatso also gave Anta Khan the title of "Great Brahma King".
Since then, the leader of the Gelug Sect has been called the "Dalai Lama".
The Gelug sect forbids believers to use wives, concubines, and livestock to bury their male masters. They use the six-armed wise father-in-law to replace the "Old Man" who was previously killed by the Mongolian herdsmen for sacrifice. They are only allowed to use three kinds of dairy products (cheese, milk and butter) as offerings.
Once these teachings spread on a large scale, they would be a devastating economic blow to other sects and shamans - it would save money. In just a few years, the Gelug sect took over the grasslands.
status.
After taking care of Amada Khan, Sonam Gyatso wrote a letter to Zhang Juzheng, in which he called himself "Bhikkhu Sakyamuni Sonam Gyatso", then "put his palms together and bowed" and said:
"I know that your name is as prominent as the sun and moon, and is known all over the world. I wish you good health. I bless the emperor and chant sutras day and night. Hou Donglai, governor of Gansu Province, invited me to lecture on sutras in the mainland. After I arrived in the city, I first went to the court and asked
It is my good intention to present the horses and objects as a reward to me and the deacon of King Chanhua to follow the good example of the past. The emperor and ministers and I chant sutras day and night and wish peace to the world..."
The so-called horse objects in this letter are Suonan Gyatso hitchhiking on the throne of King Chanhua of the Ming Dynasty. When he wanted to pay tribute to the court and pray for rewards from the court, he gave him something of a higher standard according to previous examples.
thing.
This letter was written humbly, but there was a little trick in it. The so-called Chanhua King, the full name of the Initiation State Master Chanhua King, was the title granted by Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty to the leader of the Tibetan Pamudlupa regime.
Under the Ming system, only entities or individuals canonized by the imperial court were eligible to pay tribute to the imperial court. Here is the trick of this letter: Although Suonan Gyatso wrote very humbly, once Zhang Juzheng did not check, he would reply to the letter or agree to pay tribute.
, then Sonam Gyatso and the Gelug Sect can borrow the prestige of the imperial court in Tibet and become the top Buddhist sect.
Zhang Juzheng, who has been a veteran for many years, was still deceived by Sonam Gyatso. He knew that the emperor valued Tibetan Buddhism and immediately reported it to Zhu Yijun. Zhu Yijun had never thought about whether he would support the Gelug sect, so he told Zhang Juzheng
Ignore him for now and let this matter go.
After the Gelug sect became popular on the grassland within a few years, Zhu Yijun deeply realized that a large Buddhist sect that was passed down to later generations did have its own uniqueness. Therefore, he also paid attention to Suonan Gyatso. In the ninth year of Wanli,
At that time, he was given the name "Master Dajue".
At this time, Suonan Gyatso killed the snake and put it on the stick. He immediately gave the emperor an inscription on the left and a letter on the right to Zhang Juzheng. He repeatedly stated that he understood the principle that "it is difficult to establish Dharma without following the ruler of the country" and at the same time guaranteed that "all Buddhist deeds done by ascetics"
"It is nothing more than wishing for the country and bringing the emperor Yinyi to the throne." The Gelug sect is willing to resolutely implement and maintain the religious management regulations of the imperial court.
Such a positive work attitude finally impressed Zhu Yijun. When he met with the King of Shunyi before the end of last year, Zhu Yijun issued an edict, asking the local government to invite Sonam Gyatso to come to Beijing to give lectures, and promised the King of Shunyi that he would also allow the Living Buddha to return home.
Huacheng stayed for a period of time.
Suonan Gyatso worked hard for many years, and once he succeeded, he worshiped the Buddha three times and wet the futon with tears. On the way to Beijing, he met Hu Lahachi who came to see him at Kumbum Monastery, so he prepared it for five years.
The rhetoric was thrown out - Kublai Khan was not willing to give it to An Dahan, so he used it on Zhu Yijun.
It should be said that the top figures in the world have a clear understanding of world affairs. Suonan Gyatso has already seen that Zhu Yijun is going to attack Mongolia, so he is not afraid of being disrespectful with his words - the position of national master is secure.
