Look In the Mirror

  Chapter 566 establishes "Xinzong"

  Take half a step to achieve the goal.

  Lichen stood on the top of the peaks, with clouds and mist around his feet, and the wind gusts in his ears. Looking up, the peaks bowed their heads, and the monks were silent.

  It is exactly: you will be at the top of the mountain, and you will see all the mountains and small ones at a glance.

  But such a shocking scene, in Li Chen's eyes, was like nothingness, as indifferent as water.

  Because setting foot on the purpose peak is the first step in establishing the sect.

  The next challenge is the key to Lizong.

   Qi Zongming, say the purpose!

  Lizong is equivalent to crossing the robbery.

  Standing on the purpose peak, announcing the 'zong name' and 'purpose' to the monks is also proclaiming the way of heaven.

  If the way of heaven allows it, a vision will be born, and the Buddha will send down the golden light of the Buddha, and the merits and virtues will be auspicious.

  But if the sky does not allow it, the sky will be cloudy, and the Buddha will send down thousands of thunderbolts and burn himself in flames.

   Lightly loses all cultivation and becomes a mortal, unable to practice anymore.

  If it is heavy, it will turn into ashes, and it will never enter reincarnation.

  So climbing the purpose peak is the first step.

  The real danger is the next Lizong!

  All the monks held the handprints of the Dharma, their mouths moved slightly, and the faint scriptures echoed in the mountains.

   The breeze swayed, and the trees rustled.

  Li Chen calmed down and turned a deaf ear to him, only to see that his face was always dignified, and after a few breaths he finally opened his red lips lightly: "Say 'Xin Zong'."

  Xinzong is the name of the sect.

No Bodhi tree, nor stand mirror.

   There is nothing, where is the dust.

   It was originally made by Huineng, the sixth patriarch of Zen Buddhism in the previous life.

  In the previous life, the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, Confucius, and Laozi were called the "Three Great Saints of the East", and Europe listed him as one of the "Top Ten Thinkers in the World".

  Huineng's epiphany method, advocated: do not establish words, teach outsiders, point directly to people's hearts, and become a Buddha by seeing one's nature.

  The so-called: cultivating the Buddha and cultivating the mind, the Dharma is nothing more than the mind, and it is for the mind that there is no external object.

  So at this moment, Lichen established the sect as the 'Xinzong'.

   In the final analysis, the theory of Xinzong also comes from Zen.

   Compared with Zen Buddhism, Xinzong advocates "knowing the mind and seeing nature" and "becoming a Buddha through sudden enlightenment".

  When Li Chen was speaking, he used 'Wine Dragon Chant' intentionally or unintentionally.

  The name 'Xinzong' seems to have magical powers, shuttling back and forth between the mountains.

  Wherever he passed, there were monks clasping their hands together and pronouncing the Buddha's name.

  In a blink of an eye, the sky was suddenly covered with clouds, and there was a faint flash of thunder.

"not good!"

   "The way of heaven is different!"

  On the high platform, Abbot Yinfa narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked up at the sky. The inexplicable coercion coming from around him made one's hair stand on end.

   There is quite an illusion that the mountains and rain are about to come and the wind is full of the building.

  Could it be that killing the Buddha's son to establish a sect failed?

  Abbot Yinfa made a deep sound, probably the epitome of all the monks at this moment.

"Um?"

  Agua frowned, he sat on Li Sao's head, his legs were held down by Li Sao.

   At this time, the strength on the legs is getting stronger and stronger.

  Hmm~ It seems that whether I can eat chicken or not is yet to be determined.

  "The sea meeting in the lotus pond, Amitabha Tathagata, Avalokitesvara sits on the lotus platform, leads to the golden steps, makes great vows, and vows to leave the dust.

  Namo Lianchi Haihui Bodhisattva Mahasattva, Namo Lianchi Haihui Bodhisattva Mahasattva, Namo Lianchi Haihui Bodhisattva Mahasattva! "

   Not far away, the little monk Miaodi rested his head, but kept reciting the "Amitabha Sutra".

   Obviously, he was also very worried.

  The old monk Pukong next to him was much more indifferent, his eyes staring at the young figure in the sky with infinite longing.

  If you can set foot on the peak of purpose, even if you fail to establish a sect, it will be worth it!

  The thunder in the dark cloud turned into an electric snake, rolling and moving in it.

   But after a cup of tea, the thunder never stopped.

  All the monks breathed a sigh of relief, which shows that the 'Xin Sect' established by Lichen has been recognized by the Dao of Heaven.

  On the purpose peak, Li Chen's face was still neither sad nor happy, he turned around, as if there was nothing outside of idealism.

   "The head of the mind sect said: No thought is the sect."

  Finally, Lichen read out the first tenet of Xinzong.

  Purpose, that is, the method and rules of Xinzong's comprehension of Buddhism.

  All Xinzong lineages must conform to its own purpose.

  The tenet is established, and the Xinzong is established.

  If the purpose fails, then Xinzong fails.

  "Since the beginning of time, no-thought has been gradually established as the ancestor, no form as the body, and no abiding as the foundation.

  To realize Prajna Samadhi is to have no thought. What is Wu Nian? Those who have no thoughts, see all dharmas, do not grasp all dharmas; pervade all places, do not grasp all places. "

  As soon as the first tenet came out, all the monks in the Zen forest were lost in thought.

  Those who have no thoughts, only the mind has no thoughts, and there is nothing outside the mind.

  Everything is based on no thought.

  It is in line with the Zen poem that Lichen recited before: Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand.

   I don’t know why after hearing the first tenet of Xinzong, many scriptures immediately appeared in the hearts of the monks to confirm it.

  The more I think about it, the more I feel that the first tenet is already unpredictable and memorable.

   It's just that for some reason, the sky suddenly darkened, and it was even more gloomy than before.

  It is as if the monks raise their hands and they can touch the stratus clouds in the sky.

  The majesty of the way of heaven fell, but it made the monks feel unable to move in the quagmire.

  'It's over, now I'm going to be implicated by killing Buddha's son! '

   At this time, many monks were already panicking, but because of the power of heaven, no one could move.

   I had to listen to Lichen continue:

   "Second: Dinghui and other studies."

   "The body of samadhi and wisdom is one and the same, that is, samadhi is the body of wisdom, that is, wisdom is the function of samadhi.

   That is, the time of wisdom is samadhi, that is, the time of samadhi is samadhi. "

  This purpose is to advocate the consistency of concentration and wisdom.

  Different from Zen Buddhism, in Zen Buddhism 'wisdom' and 'sedation' are separated.

  Hui is the root of wisdom, the root of innate wisdom.

  Determination is the determination of the heart, which is acquired understanding.

  The separation of 'settling' and 'wisdom' makes the threshold of Zen Buddhism infinitely raised.

  But invisibly, it has added many difficulties to the popularization and dissemination of Buddhism.

  The second tenet of Xinzong makes a different point of view: "wisdom" and "settling" are one.

  The two are the basic potential of human beings, and practicing Buddhism is to tap these two potentials.

   It's just that some are fast and some are slow.

  This article also expanded the scope of Buddhist practice in a disguised form.

   "Bang!"

   As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, a thunderbolt streaked across the sky.

  The originally dark world suddenly turned pale, and in an instant it turned into endless darkness.

   "He violated the law of heaven!"

   "This is the wrath of Heaven!"

   "Stop talking!"

   "Stop talking!"

  Many monks in the Zen forest looked at the sky with livid faces. At this time, they kept praying in their hearts that Li Chen would stop soon.

   And there is a monk on the Ten Thousand Mountains, laughing wildly: "Hahaha, God help me!"

   "God help me!"

  In the heart of Lei Yinfozi, only he himself has the chance to establish a successful family!

   Everyone else is just a stepping stone for him.

  The more Lichen offends Heaven's Wrath, the greater his chances of becoming the leader of Buddhism again.

  Becoming the leader of Buddhism will be a key step for him to realize his ambition!

   Crying, praying, gloating, worrying, persuading...

  All the sights in front of my eyes and all the sounds in my ears are just dreams to Li Chen.

  'There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust? '
