Xiang Que was completely dumbfounded by the old monk's words.
"Shouldn't all Buddhist practitioners want to become Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the end? If they don't want to, what's the difference from salted fish?" Xiang Que asked puzzled.
The old monk nodded and said "yes", Xiang Que frowned and said, "Then I don't understand, Master. Since everyone wants to become a Buddha, why doesn't Lingshan restrict the monks? I not only saw the goodness under Lingshan , I also saw some evil, these should not appear in the west."
"Buddhism is practiced by oneself, not for people to become Buddhas. If everyone succeeds in cultivation, what about the evil in the world? In the Buddha's heart, it is impossible to rely on others to lead the way, so those people at the foot of the Lingshan Mountain The monks all think that it is enough to enjoy themselves in time, but none of them think about becoming a Buddha or a Bodhisattva."
This old monk's three views are not right! How should I put it, why doesn't he feel positive.
"Does the benefactor want to become a Buddha?" The old monk's words suddenly changed, and it was about Xiang Que with a very sincere look in his eyes.
Xiang Que smiled, shook his head and said: "I can't do it, I'm murderous, selfish and greedy for money Uh, I can't eat meat or drink, and the Buddha can't stay in my heart, so forget it, Master Don't cross me, I'm just a mortal."
The old monk said indifferently: "What you said is not a problem, the problem is whether you want to become a Buddha or not."
Xiang Que said solemnly: "I really don't want to, I am a Taoist, so I can't change my family."
"Cultivating the Buddha body can make the donor's magic power boundless and profound"
"Then if I kill too much at that time, wouldn't it be a waste of all the painstaking efforts of the Buddha and discredit the Buddha, so forget it, it's best to be a comfortable person, I can't stand the constraints"
The old monk looked at him quietly, and suddenly said: "I advise the almsgiver, because you have a predestined relationship with my Buddha."
Xiang Que was taken aback for a moment, and his heart flickered for a moment. This was almost the same as what Monk Changsheng said when he met him in the foreign battlefield. Could it be that the other party also saw something from him?
"What kind of predestined relationship" Xiang Que was also a little bit abrupt, this sentence of predestined relationship really had something in it, but if the eminent monk said that, it meant that the other party was going to save him.
Just when Xiang Que was a little confused, the old monk suddenly stretched out a finger and pointed towards him without any warning.
"Pa" the other party tapped Xiang Que's eyebrows lightly with his finger.
What's weird is that with Xiang Que's current cultivation base and his level of body tempering, unless the old monk's realm is ridiculously high, it is impossible to poke him.
Xiang Que was caught off guard and pointed a finger by the other party, but at first he didn't feel anything wrong, firstly, the old monk's actions were not malicious, and secondly, this pointing was actually Xiang Que's soul .
The old monk withdrew his fingers, then got up without saying a word, and opened his mouth to ask what you were going to do, but what surprised him was that he didn't know why, but after opening his mouth, he said, "Anxiety is like the earth. , meditating deeply and deeply, like Tibetans.¡±
This is the origin of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
Without any warning, suddenly there appeared on Xiang Que's body a Dharma image with a crown on his head, a jewel in his left hand, and a tin staff in his right, sitting on a green lotus.
Xiang Que once saw the Longevity Monk make a move in the foreign battlefield, and a Dharma image rose behind him. At that time, he felt that it was really amazing and very decent.
Xiang Que stared blankly at the Dharma image popping up above his head. He knew who it was. After all, in his previous life, even before he was born, the other party's thoughts had been entrusted to him. Que Yuxishan old tomb fought a battle, and when Xiang Que died later, the other party seemed to have achieved Dzogchen and left him, and at the same time opened a door for Xiang Que to the Paradise of Paradise.
This is the Dharma image of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, but with his eyes closed.
Looking at the majestic Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Xiang Que suddenly felt an aura of intimacy for no reason. Maybe the other party has been with him for dozens of years and changed the trajectory of his life?
In short, Xiang Que is not surprised why the image of Ksitigarbha appeared on him again.
Xiang Que was at a loss, and gradually his mind became clear. At this time, there was nothing in front of him.
At this time, the old monk retreated quietly, and he walked out of the dilapidated temple.
When he came out, the temple in front of him suddenly disappeared.
The forest is still the forest, and the wild land is still wild.??, but the temple was gone, only Xiang Que was left sitting on the ground.
The old monk's body slowly rose towards the sky, and then a six-tusked white elephant flew from a distance in the clouds, and he sat on the back of the elephant, and suddenly, the old monk's imagination "swish "It changed instantly, he was no longer the dirty and sloppy look he had before, but instead, a halo appeared behind him that symbolized the self-awareness of Dzogchen.
The six-tusk white elephant raised its long trunk in front of its head, stepped on a cloud, and then flew towards the sky with the old monk on board, officially heading towards Lingshan.
There are four major Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, Manjusri Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Among them, the first three have lived in the Western Paradise for a long time, but only Ksitigarbha lives in the underworld.
The six-tusk white elephant is the divine animal mount of Puxian Bodhisattva of the Western Paradise.
Xiang Que didn't see the old monk turned into Samantabhadra and then flew away on a white elephant. At this moment, only the Ksitigarbha Dharma with his eyes closed was left in front of him.
At the same time, in the distance between the mountains and forests, people who occasionally passed by and even monks, all saw the Buddha's light rising from the mountains, and everyone who saw them fell to the ground.
They knew that this is the great master of Lingshan who actually manifested the golden body here, either Buddha or Bodhisattva, because only a few Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in Lingshan can cultivate the golden body.
Also at this time, at the lower end of the highest peak of Lingshan Mountain, on a mountain peak where purple bamboo grows, the Bodhisattva holding a mutton fat jade purification bottle also floated to the top and looked towards this side.
In the northwest of Lingshan Mountain, Monk Changsheng rode over on a green lion. When he met Guanshiyin, he frowned and said, "Why did Dizang come here?"
Avalokitesvara did not speak to him, but pointed behind him. Changsheng monk saw Samantabhadra Bodhisattva riding a six-tusk white elephant flying towards him.
