Vol 2 Chapter 556: On the Dharma ‘Killing’

  Chapter 556 on "killing"

  The person who established the clan.

   is the person who can establish a purpose.

  It is the honor of monks whether or not they succeed in establishing a sect.

  Only the most devout monks are eligible to become sect founders.

   And the few thousand monks who won the first level of "conversation" are all devout disciples of Buddhism.

  Everyone is full of longing for the "Li Zongseng".

  Therefore, before the 'Lizong debate', there is another test for the selection of the 'Lizong monk', and that is the 'playing machine front'.

  Da Leiyin Temple will come up with a theme and tenet, and then the monks will use the method of "playing the frontier" to embody Zen principles.

  This can reflect a monk's understanding of Buddhism.

   "If you talk about playing fighters, Zen Master Shandao of the 'Xitian Temple' here is a master of fighters."

   "If you talk about Master Shandao, you have to mention Zen Master Hongren from the 'Shiqiao Temple'."

   "That's right, the two of them are rivals in chess, and they are evenly matched. My Buddhist sect deserves to be the two eminent monks."

   "In addition to the two elders, there are also Master Tanluan from Qingtian Temple, Master Kuzhu from Ascetic Temple, and Master Leichan from Jinglian Temple..."

"Speaking of which, my Buddhist sect also comes from generations of talented people. Among the younger generation, monk Boundless is the son of Mercy Buddha in Daci'en Temple, monk Yehui is the son of Guangming Buddha in Daguangming Temple, Shitai Yueyin from Baiyun Nunnery, and Lianhua from Baibai Temple. Monk Chi is a genius and a master of debate."

   "A while ago, the Buddha-killing disciple "fighting the machine" forced the monk Ji Le back, but he is also a person with deep roots of wisdom."

   "That's right, the Buddha who kills lives uses a teacup as a metaphor for obsession, and even the blissful monk who has been in the devil's way for decades has not noticed it. It's really wonderful, wonderful."

  Earlier, when Monk Ji Le trespassed on the Shasheng Temple, Li Chen deliberately poured tea with hot water, and Monk Ji Le let it go when it was hot.

   is to take the 'tea cup' as his obsession, which means that he let go of his obsession.

   This is the striker.

  Everyone said something to me, and I have to say that the gathering of Buddhist eminent monks is really a grand occasion for Buddhism.

   At this moment, the high platform opposite the Zen Forest was crowded with people.

   In a blink of an eye, a group of disciples from Daleiyin Temple came to the front.

  The first person is agile, not like the abbot Yinfa of Daleiyin Temple.

  The monks looked intently, but it was a middle-aged monk, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a powerful mouth.

  Monk Yinzhen is the youngest among the elders of Daleiyin Temple.

  He first glanced at the monks in the audience, then closed his eyes slightly, put his hands together, and proclaimed the Buddha's name: "Amitabha."

  After speaking, he opened his palm, and there was already a light yellow brocade scroll.

  There is no doubt that this is the argument of this auspicious puja.

  Li Chen, who was hiding in the corner, was waiting for the argument to be revealed, but suddenly felt something strange in his heart, and turned his head to look right into the eyes of Lei Yinfozi at the front of the line.

   What kind of look is that?

   Taunt? despise? Still disdain?

   Li Chen frowned slightly, feeling a bad feeling in his heart.

  The next moment, Monk Yinzhen opened the decree.

  On the plain brocade of the decree of the law, there are two big characters-'killing'.

   "Killing?!"

  Monk Boundless was born in Da Ci'en Temple. As one of the three great Buddhist sects in the world, he naturally stood at the forefront of the team.

   And beside him is the monk Yehui, the son of Guangming Buddha of Daguangming Temple.

  Looking at the word 'Killing', the two subconsciously met their eyes, and said in unison in their hearts: That's right.

   There is no doubt that this move is aimed at Shasheng Temple.

  Killing is one of the precepts of Buddhism.

  Buddha said: The killing intent cannot be eliminated, and the dust cannot come out.

  The number one evil deed in the world is mainly killing life, and also taking other evils.

  All sentient beings are based on life. Therefore, among all sins, killing is the most serious, and among all good deeds, protecting life is the most important.

   It can be said that the word "killing" alone excludes the killing temple that does not abstain from killing.

  All the monks understood, subconsciously turned their heads to look at Lichen.

  There are those who empathize with others, those who gloat about others' misfortunes, and those who stand on the sidelines.

  Being the focus of many eyes, Li Chen held the rosary in one hand and stood in front of his chest with the other, with neither sadness nor joy on his face, always calm and composed.

  When the monks saw this, they secretly admired him in their hearts. Even if this Buddhist monk who killed life could not become a monk, his demeanor of "Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his face" was enough to make him famous in Buddhism.

   "This argument is clearly aimed at Shasheng Temple."

   "Well, two hundred years ago, it was also because of Daleiyin Temple and Shasheng Temple's dark Zen master who failed to establish a sect. After returning, he closed the temple and closed the mountain."

  Debating scriptures is an extremely serious matter for monks.

  If you lose the debate, you must meet the other party's request. If the other party asks you to offer your head, you must not hesitate.

  Two hundred years ago, when Zen Master Huizhuo was arguing with his ancestors, he was defeated by Zen Master Yin Mie of Daleiyin Temple. In the end, he could only agree to the request of Zen Master Yin Mie:

  ‘The red lotus of Shasheng cannot be opened for a day, and the Shasheng Temple cannot be opened for a day. '

   It was not until two hundred years later that Li Chen took out the red lotus karmic fire from the secret realm of the sea of ​​blood and urged the red lotus to be killed.

  Because of "the red lotus weeps the dew, kills the living and drinks the sky", the killing of the living temple finally opens to welcome guests, and Zen sounds are broadcast everywhere.

   "Oh, it's hard~"

   Monk Pukong, who was defeated by Lichen before, shook his head. He was over middle-aged, and his face was slightly vicissitudes. Shaking his head and sighing at this moment made people feel powerless.

   "What a pity, what a pity~"

  Beside him, Monk Miaodi also sighed softly. He should have expected that the disciple of Leiyin would definitely not give up.

  Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look worriedly at Li Chen in the crowd.

  Li Chen raised his head slightly and looked in the direction of the high platform. If he felt something, Lei Yinfozi turned his eyes slightly, and met Li Chen's four eyes, as if he had won a battle.

  Li Chen thought to himself: Sure enough, Monk Wu Bian really hit the mark.

  The Buddha-nature in this Leiyin Buddha son is there, but not much.

  Recalling the secrets that Monk Miaodi said, Li Chen couldn't help but start thinking about it secretly.

   "Amitabha."

  At this time, a sound of the Buddha's name came, but it was the Boundless monk, the son of the Buddha of Mercy, from the Da Ci'en Temple.

  Regarding ‘killing life’, if it is said that the Shasheng Temple is the least qualified to participate, then the Da Ci’en Temple is the opposite, and the one with the most say.

  Because Da Ci'en Temple itself is one of the three most famous temples in the world, based on the supreme Buddhadharma and taking saving all living beings as its mission.

  Even the name 'Da Ci'en Temple' was named after treating the mother of the Son of Heaven thousands of years ago.

  Li Chen heard the words, but he was grateful. He knew that what Monk Wu Bian did was to divert everyone's attention from himself.

   "Greed and love grow together, and if greed cannot be stopped, the eggs in the world will hatch into wet wombs, and they will devour each other according to their strengths and weaknesses. In this way, killing greed is the basis.

  People eat sheep, sheep die for people, people die for sheep, and so on for ten lives, life and death, eating each other, evil karma is born, and the future is poor, so it is based on stealing and greed.

  You take my life, and I will pay your debt.

   Because of this cause and condition, after hundreds of thousands of kalpas, they are always in birth and death. "
