Xishan is a large mountain outside Yujing City, covering a radius of hundreds of miles. Although it is not majestic, it is densely forested and has complex terrain. There are many mountains, flowing springs and waterfalls, as well as rocky mountains and forests.
There are many foxes, jackals and wild animals in the mountains. Every winter, some princes and nobles go hunting in the mountains.
But at this time, a young novice monk who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old was walking in this mountain.
Not long after, he saw a small temple. This temple was called Qiuyue Temple. It was just an unknown temple. Including the abbot, there were only about ten people.
Thumb thump thump——
The wooden door of the third burial rang, and not long after, a monk who was only in his twenties walked out of the temple.
"Amitabha." The monk clasped his hands and said, "Little monk Faming, I have met my little master."
San Burian also clasped his hands together and said: "The poor monk San Burian has met the Master."
The two exchanged pleasantries and then walked into Qiuyue Temple together. San Buran first went to the main hall and politely paid a courtesy visit to the Buddha and Bodhisattva in this world. Of course, he was completely disdainful in his heart.
"The little Master is not sincere." A slightly aged voice came. It was an old monk with a kind face and a kind heart. His eyes were bright and he seemed to be able to see people's hearts.
San Zang looked over and smiled casually: "You said that I am not sincere. What does it mean to be sincere? What does it mean to be dishonest?"
"Sincerely worship the Buddha, the Buddha's Dharma will be self-evident." The old monk clasped his hands together and smiled lightly.
"When wine and meat passed through the intestines, and the Buddha remained in his heart, was his heart sincere or dishonest?"
"this……"
The old monk hesitated a little: "Drinking alcohol and eating meat is already breaking the precepts. The so-called Buddha in your heart is just words."
"What about the Happy Buddha? He is a Buddha, but he promotes the doctrine of 'double cultivation of men and women'. Are his followers sincere to the Buddha or not?" San Buran asked again.
"Amitabha..." The old monk clasped his hands together, obviously unable to argue with the three burials.
But this is normal. Tang Sanbian was no longer the same person as before. He was not a person who abided by rules, and he liked sophistry very much.
The third burial also said the Buddha's name, and then temporarily stayed in Qiuyue Temple.
In the evening, Faming found San Zang again and said, "Little Master, we will have evening classes later, do you want to come with us?"
Hearing this, San Zan shook his head, looked out the window at the rolling clouds, and said calmly: "You can't sit down when you are born, and you can't sit down when you die. How can you do your homework with a smelly bone?"
Fa Ming was suddenly stunned and looked at San Zang with dumbfounded eyes. This was actually a Zen saying with great Buddhist principles.
People who don’t understand will naturally not understand it, but people who really understand will know that there are many mysteries in this Zen saying.
San Zan looked at his expression and felt secretly happy. Pretending is indeed addictive. He looked at Fa Ming, hoping that he would continue to create opportunities for himself.
"Little Master, please wait a moment." Fa Ming said quickly, and then ran towards the side hall. Naturally, San Buran did not stop him, and even welcomed him very much. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
Not long after, San Buran, who was lying in the house, heard the sound of footsteps, and saw Master Wenxin, the abbot of Qiuyue Temple, leading everyone into the room.
"Master Three Burials, Fa Ming just said a Zen saying to me, but what did the master say?" Abbot Wenxin asked, with a gleam in his eyes, as if he was expecting something.
There is a hidden mystery in the sentence just now, but he has been practicing Buddhism for decades, so he can naturally hear the meaning. It is clearly telling him: Are you studying the lessons or praying to the Buddha? The homework will never be completed. If you pray to the Buddha
, the Buddha does not have a fixed demeanor, so how can it be possible to pray to the Buddha by learning lessons?
Such an enigmatic Zen saying actually came from a young novice monk who looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old. Abbot Qin Xin also found it incredible.
"It's what I said, so what?" San Zan said with a smile, what are the conditions required for the highest state of pretentiousness?
One, it needs opponents, and two, it needs onlookers.
Now that he is satisfied, he knows that he will have the opportunity to start the next stage.
Seeing this, Qin Xin felt something in his heart and asked, "What is Zen?"
San Buran: "Yes."
Ask the mind: "What is the Dharma Eye?"
San Buran: "No."
Ask the mind: "How is emptiness?"
San Zang's expression became increasingly weird, but he still said: "Broken."
Questioning: "Really?"
San Buran: "No!"
Questioning: "Don't you still answer?"
San Zan smiled: "Don't you still ask?!"
The two of them asked questions and answered them quickly, and the monks on both sides could only listen to the discussions.
"Do you understand?"
"No, they seem to be talking about something very new."
"Hey, it's so profound. What a mystery!"
After a long time, Abbot Wenxin sighed: "Amitabha, what the master said is extremely true."
He completely changed his view on the young monk in front of him. Although he was young, he had Buddha nature in his heart. If he joined one of the world-famous Buddhist sects, he would definitely be a Buddhist figure.
"Thank you." San Zan said with a smile. This conversation was so familiar that he didn't even need to use his brain and just copied it mechanically. But it doesn't matter, as long as it's easy to use.
Moreover, in general, it is another one's own Buddhist principles, isn't that his?
"The master is willing to enter the great Zen temple to practice. Although the poor monk is useless, he still has some connections and can help the master to enter the great Zen temple and practice Mahayana Buddhism." Abbot Wenxin said, he really hopes that San Burial will enter the great Zen temple.
In that case, a son of Buddha will inevitably appear in Buddhism in the future.
But San Zan shook his head and said: "They can't teach me what I want to learn."
All the monks exclaimed, and they couldn't help but shake a little, and finally managed to stand firm. It was a great Zen temple, dominating Zhongzhou. There were one hundred thousand warrior monks in the temple, who were extremely extravagant and rich as a country!
How many forces in the world can compare with it?
But San Zang said that Dazen Temple could not teach him what he wanted to learn.
"What do you want to learn?" Wen Xin couldn't help but ask.
This was the moment that San Zang was waiting for. He slowly walked to the window with his hands behind his back. He looked up at the changing clouds in the sky and said, "I want this day. If I can no longer cover my eyes, I want this earth."
, I can no longer bury my heart, I want all living beings to understand my intentions, I want all Buddhas to disappear into thin air!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue. Whether it was asking the abbot or the other monks, they all stood there blankly, as if they had been hit by a stabbing spell, with their eyes filled with incredulity.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! For a long time, Abbot Wenxin could not help twisting the beads: "Amitabha... Amitabha..."
Such words are no longer as simple as being dishonest, they are trying to destroy the Buddha!
Originally, he thought that San Zang could speak those Zen words and that he was a person with wisdom. But who would have thought that in addition to the wisdom of the Buddha's heart, this guy was also full of rebellion!
He looked at the three burials, and after a long pause, he said again: "I wonder what the Master thinks of a Buddha?"
At this time, he was already using a tone of asking for advice. Even though San Zang had said such disrespectful words before, his Buddhist heart and wisdom still made Wen Xin admire him.
That's why he thought of asking this question.
"I wonder what the abbot thinks of a Buddha?" However, Sanzang did not answer him directly, but asked Fan.
"The Buddha in my heart is like the ancient well in this courtyard. I always illuminate it and examine my mind." Abbot Wenxin said, reciting the Buddha's name.
"That's wrong." San Fang said: "Buddha has no form and no roots, but there is no Buddha everywhere, and there is no Mahayana Buddhism anywhere."
As soon as these words came out, Huang Zhong Dalu was so shocked that the Buddha's heart trembled, and he quickly asked: "What does it mean that there is no Buddha everywhere?"
Sanzun looked at the sky, like the Buddha holding flowers and smiling, and said: "One flower is a world, one grass is a paradise, one tree is a floating life, one leaf is a Tathagata, one sand is a bliss, one square is a pure land, one smile is one fate, one thought is one
quiet."
"The poor monk...is convinced."
Abbot Wen Xin bowed and bowed, and the other monks did the same.
"Communicating with fellow practitioners, you and I are both Buddhas, how can we accept or disapprove?" San Zang said: "We are all travelers on the path of seeking Buddha. Those who seek scriptures do not need to care about other people's Dharma. Only by seeking your own Buddha can we live in this world.
Right path."
Abbot Wenxin bowed again, but after thinking about it, he still said: "Please give me some advice on the way to seek Buddha."
San Zan paused in his heart and said with a smile: "I have a story here. Listen to it first. Once upon a time, two eminent monks had a debate. The first eminent monk said: There is a mirror in my heart. I keep wiping it every day to make it bright.
Looking at others is enough to judge me. But the second eminent monk said: I don't have a mirror in my heart, so why wipe it?"
Everyone present was startled after hearing this. Some seemed to understand but not yet, and some seemed to be about to understand.
"The body is like a Bodhi tree, and the mind is like a mirror. Always brush it diligently to prevent dust." San Zang's voice brought them back to reality. However, before they understood the Buddhist principles in this sentence, they heard San Zang continue.
: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where can it cause dust?"
The bodhi tree in Buddhism often does not refer to a plant, but a symbol and commemoration. It represents the great wisdom of Buddhism and the Buddha in the hearts of the world.
But the words "Three Burials" are actually saying that there is no Buddha in his heart, nor are there any dharma or phenomena. Everything is empty, he has nothing to seek, and he has nothing to think about. Naturally, there are no distracting thoughts in the world.
"Amitabha." A smile appeared on Abbot Wenxin's face. He looked at the three burials as if he were seeing the real Buddha: "Master, please allow the poor monks to accompany you and listen to the teachings of the real Buddha."
He asked San Burian how to seek Buddha, but San Burian told him that there was no Buddha in his heart. There is another explanation for this, and that is: I am the real Buddha!
This is real great wisdom!
Just in line with his saying "Buddha is everywhere"!
"I am a guest from far away from home, but now I also want to have a place to return to. If the abbot doesn't dislike it, the young monk would like to practice in Qiuyue Temple." Sanzang said, with a light in his eyes.
But at this time, Master Wenxin could not care about these things. Hearing that San Buran was willing to stay, he was not happy in time and said quickly: "It's all right. I am so lucky to have Master in charge of Qiuyue Temple."
San Zan smiled, the initial goal had been achieved.
Just a few days later, San Zan took over the position of abbot of Qiuyue Temple, and it was Master Wenxin who begged for his life before he finally allowed him to agree.
Of course, this was done intentionally by San Zang, playing hard to get!
However, when they wanted to write the names of the three burials into the chronicles of Qiuyue Temple, they were still shocked. After all, they had always thought that the name of the three burials was "San Zang". Who would have thought that it was actually the "three burials".
Bury in the sky! Bury on the ground! Bury all living beings!
Such arrogant Dharma slogans are really shocking.
Moreover, after San Zang became the abbot, the tricks he implemented were even more difficult to see through.
However, there were also things that surprised them, such as the Buddhist practice methods, martial arts, etc. presented by San Zang.
And just when San Zang became the abbot, the four demons Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, and Xiao Bailong also started their own plans.
…
Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Outside Yujing, a Zen temple stands, called Qiuyue Temple. It is now the most famous Zen temple in Yujing. It claims to practice orthodox Mahayana Buddhism. It is unique, but it is highly praised by the world, and even its power is also known.
Great officials are afraid of it.
It is said that there are eighteen martial arts masters in Qiuyue Temple today, and each of them has the strength of a peak martial saint. Their energy is like smoke, and they condense their own boxing spirit. Their speed is even more extraordinary, and they are also praised by the outside world.
The Eighteen Arhats of Qiuyue Temple.
In addition, there are disciples who specialize in Buddhism and have survived thunder tribulations and become ghosts and immortals.
Such strength is already at the top of the entire Daqian Kingdom. After all, the current Daqian Kingdom has only been in power for only thirty years. Although masters are constantly being born, there are only so many named Martial Saints, and this Qiuyue
Temple, but eighteen came out at the same time.
There are even ghosts and immortals, which naturally amazes the world.
And on this day, in Qiuyue Temple, which had been expanded several times, an old monk walked to an independent courtyard holding a golden book.
All disciples of Qiuyue Temple know that this is the core place of Qiuyue Temple, but there are no restrictions here. Even novice novices can come here.
"Abbot! Abbot!"
The old monk looks old, but he strides as fast as flying, his divine light is restrained, and he has a faint sense of otherworldly power.
Creak!
The door of the room opened, and a monk who looked extremely young walked out. Ten years would not have left any traces on his body. He was still as young as a boy, but his strength was no longer the same.
"What are you doing here?"
San Zang looked at Master Wenxin and said, now Monk Wenxin has practiced Buddhism and has entered the realm of ghosts and immortals. He has survived five thunder tribulations and is considered one of the top masters in the Daqian Kingdom today.
"Abbott, the current Daqian Sheng has sent an invitation to call on all the Taoist people in the world, the masters of martial arts, human beings, immortals and ghosts to go to Yujing, with the intention of compiling the 'Martial Arts' and the 'Tao Jing' as martial arts. The general outline of Taoism!" Master Wenxin said to Sanzang.
"Oh?" San Zang heard the words and immediately smiled: "Since the present Holy Master invites you, I, Qiuyue Temple, will naturally respond."
"Elder Wenxin, you will take the lead this time. All the martial saints and ghosts and immortals in the temple will go there. In addition, Fahai will also go with you." Sanzang said.
"Fahai is going too?!"
It was not surprising that Wusheng Guixian was going there, but he didn't expect that San Zang would ask Fahai to go with him.
You know, even he has only met Fahai a few times in the past ten years, but every time, he refreshes his understanding that he is a true genius born for Buddhism and martial arts!
In Qiuyue Temple, there has always been a rumor that if the three burials are the real Buddha, then Fahai is the son of the Buddha. After receiving the true biography of the Buddha, his strength is earth-shattering and shocking.
"After ten years of hard training, it's time for him to go out and take a look." Sanzang said, the cultivation method in this world is very easy in the early stage, and the improvement is not obvious. With the several systems he has mastered, as long as the talent is good enough, he can It is not difficult to cultivate a strong person in ten years.
And Fahai was the disciple who was trained by him.
