Regardless of whether the establishment of a sect is successful or not, it is the glory of the monks.
Only the most devout monks are qualified to become founders.
And the few thousand monks who won the first level of "Dialogue" were all devout disciples of Buddhism.
Everyone is full of longing for the 'established monk'.
Therefore, before the ‘establishment of the sect debate’, there is still a test to select the ‘establishment of the sect monk’, and that is ‘to be proactive’.
The Daleiyin Temple will come up with a theme and purpose, and then the monks will embody Zen principles through the method of "playing Jifeng".
This can reflect a monk's understanding of Buddhism.
"When it comes to playing Ji Feng, Zen Master Shandao from Xitian Temple here is a master of Ji Feng."
"If you talk about Master Shandao, you have to mention Zen Master Hongren from the Shiqiao Zen Monastery."
"That's right, the two of them are equal opponents in chess. They are two worthy eminent monks of our Buddhist sect."
"In addition to the two elders, there are also Master Tanluan from Qingtian Temple, Master Kuzhu from Ascetic Zen Temple, and Master Leichan from Jinglian Temple..."
"Speaking of which, our Buddhist sect is also producing talented people from generation to generation. Among the younger generation, monk Wu Bian, the disciple of Cien Buddha from Daci'en Temple, monk Ye Hui, the disciple of Guangming Buddha from Daguangming Temple, Master Yue Yin from Baiyun Temple, and Lotus Lian from Biaobai Temple.
Monk Chi is a genius and a master of debate."
"Some time ago, the Buddhist monk who killed the living beings, 'playing tricks', forced Monk Bliss to retreat, but he was also a person with deep roots of wisdom."
"Yes, the Buddhist disciple of killing lives used a tea cup as a metaphor for his obsession. Even the monk Bliss, who has been in the demonic path for decades, did not notice it. It is really wonderful, wonderful."
Previously, Monk Ji Le broke into the Shasheng Temple without permission. Li Chen deliberately poured hot water into the tea, which made Monk Ji Le let go.
He takes "tea cup" as his obsession, which means he lets go of his obsession.
This is the fighter.
Everyone said something to each other, and I have to say that it is really a grand occasion for Buddhism to have eminent Buddhist monks gathered together.
At this moment, the high platform opposite the Zen Forest was crowded with people.
In the blink of an eye, a group of disciples from the Great Leiyin Temple came to the front.
The person at the head was nimble and agile, not like the seal abbot of Daleiyin Temple.
The monks took a closer look, but they saw a middle-aged monk with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a powerful look.
Monk Yin Zhen is the youngest among the elders of Daleiyin Temple.
He first glanced at the monks in the audience, then narrowed his eyes slightly, clasped his hands together, and pronounced the Buddha's name: "Amitabha."
After saying this, he opened his palm, and a light yellow brocade scroll appeared.
There is no doubt that this is the argument of this auspicious Dharma conference.
Li Chen, who was hiding in the corner, was waiting for the argument to be revealed when he suddenly felt something strange in his heart. He turned around and met the eyes of Lei Yin Fuzi, the leader of the team.
What kind of look is that?
Ridicule? Contempt? Or disdain?
Li Chen frowned slightly, feeling something bad in his heart.
The next moment, Monk Yin Zhen issued the decree.
On the plain brocade of the decree, there are two big characters written - "Kill".
"Kill?!"
Monk Wu Bian was born in Daci'en Temple. As one of the three major Buddhist sects in the world, he naturally stood at the front of the team.
Next to him was Monk Yehui, a disciple of Guangming Buddha from Daguangming Temple.
Looking at the word 'killing', the two of them subconsciously looked at each other and secretly said in unison: It is indeed so.
There is no doubt that this move is aimed at the Sesshoji Temple.
Killing is one of the Buddhist precepts.
Buddha said: As long as the murderous intention is not eradicated, the dust will not come out.
The number one evil deed in the world is mainly killing, and also taking care of the remaining evil.
All sentient beings are based on life, so among all sins, killing is the most serious, and among all good deeds, protecting life is the first.
It can be said that just the word "killing" excludes the Shashu temples that do not abstain from killing.
All the monks understood this and subconsciously turned their heads to look at Li Chen.
There are those who feel the same way, there are those who take pleasure in the misfortune, and there are those who are indifferent and bystanders.
At the center of everyone's attention, Li Chen held the rosary in one hand and stood on his chest with the other. There was no sadness or joy on his face, and he was always calm and composed.
When the monks saw this, they secretly admired him. Even if this disciple of the Buddha who killed lives could not become an established monk, his demeanor of "not changing his expression even if the mountain collapsed in front of him" was enough to become famous in Buddhism.
"This argument is clearly aimed at the Sesshoji Temple."
"Alas, two hundred years ago, it was also because of the failure of Zen Master Huizhuo of the Great Leiyin Temple and the Shasheng Temple to establish a sect. After that, he closed the temple and closed the mountain after he returned."
Debating scriptures is an extremely serious matter for monks.
If you lose in the debate, you must meet the other party's request. If the other party asks you to sacrifice your head, you must not hesitate.
Two hundred years ago, when Zen Master Huizhuo was establishing a sect debate, he was defeated by Zen Master Yin Mie of Daleiyin Temple. In the end, he could only agree to Zen Master Yin Mie's request:
'If the red lotus of killing is not opened for one day, the temple of killing is not allowed to be opened for one day.'
It was not until two hundred years later that Li Chen took out the red lotus karma fire from the secret realm of the sea of blood and activated the killing red lotus.
As a result of "the red lotus weeps the dew, kills the living beings to drink from the sky", the killings of the living temple finally opens its doors and welcomes guests, and the sound of Zen is broadcast everywhere.
"Oh, it's hard~"
Monk Pukong, who had been defeated by Li Chen before, shook his head. He was already over middle age, and his face was slightly weathered. At this moment, he shook his head and sighed, which made people feel weak.
"What a pity, what a pity~"
And the monk Miaoti beside him also sighed softly. He should have expected that the Leiyin Buddha disciple would not give up.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Li Chen in the crowd with a worried expression.
Li Chen raised his head slightly and looked in the direction of the high platform. Lei Yin Buddha felt something, he turned his eyes slightly, and met Li Chen's eyes, as if he was winning a battle. The corners of his mouth pursed slightly, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Li Chen thought to himself: Monk Wu Bian really got it right.
This Leiyin Buddha has some Buddha nature, but not much.
Thinking of the secrets mentioned by Monk Miao Di, Li Chen couldn't help but start to think about it secretly.
"Amitabha."
At this time, the name of the Buddha came, and it was Monk Wu Bian, the disciple of Cien Buddha from Daci'en Temple.
As for "killing", if the Shasheng Temple is the least qualified to participate, then the Daci'en Temple is just the opposite, the one with the most say.
Because Daci'en Temple itself is one of the three most famous temples in the world, which is based on the supreme Buddha Dharma and takes saving all suffering beings as its own responsibility.
Even the name "Da Ci'en Temple" was derived from the treatment of the Emperor's mother thousands of years ago.
When Li Chen heard this, he felt grateful. He knew that Monk Wu Bian's move was precisely to divert everyone's attention away from him.
"Greetings and cravings grow together, and if greed cannot be stopped, the eggs in the world will turn into wet wombs, and will be eaten one after another according to the strength of the force. This is based on killing greed.
If a person eats a sheep, the sheep will die as a person, and the person will become a sheep after death, and so on for ten lives, life and death, eating each other, bad karma is born, and the future is limited. This is based on stealing and greed.
You owe me your life, and I will repay your debt.
Due to this cause and condition, through hundreds of thousands of kalpas, it will always be in life and death."
