Chapter 596: Meeting Jialan on the road and visiting Ji Le
"Is this a test from the Great Immortal?" Shao Yan asked with some confusion.
Zhen Yuanzi shook his head and said, "I didn't mean to do this. What I see here points directly to the deepest part of the soul. Buddhism calls it Alaya Consciousness. Everyone has ego in their heart. It doesn't matter. It can't be understood. It can't be understood." This confusion is the trouble in cultivating to the level of you and me. My fellow Taoist mind is indeed admirable, but there is still me in my heart. My expression is often different, either arrogant or inferior, which is illusory in reality. , being respected by others and making others envious is a manifestation of self. In this situation, Taoist friends see me walking towards you alone, surpassing others, it is a manifestation of self, covering up your Taoist heart, but Taoist friends will be gone in the blink of an eye. Understand that the human heart is only dangerous, and the Dao heart is only subtle. Taoist friends will be able to understand even the smallest sign, and the Dao heart is aroused. But others are just like you at the beginning, unconsciously immersed in themselves, and they are inferior! This is The world is manifested by the projection of your and my minds. People don¡¯t know it and have their own distorted perceptions, and it can¡¯t be considered their fault. It¡¯s just a matter of the mind, and it still lacks the firepower!¡±
Shao Changchang sighed and said: "If you have practiced to the level of Daluo Jinxian, you can still be like this. People who have not practiced can imagine how much of what they think of as personal experience is really known and grasped by them, but they are just struggling with the tide. That¡¯s it!¡±
"Exactly, after life has a sense of freedom, and with the concept of me, I want to control my own destiny. How many people can do it?! From today on, I can do this. Fellow Taoist performance today, for The time is not far away!" Zhen Yuanzi also sighed with emotion.
"My fellow Taoist, this body should be the wish body. Where is the true body? Is it in a mysterious and unpredictable realm?" Shao Yan looked at Zhen Yuanzi who was talking eloquently in front of different people.
"There is no difference between true and false! You are not here as a wishful body. You think it is the real body. It is just the vitality formed through various mysteries. Is it really your body? Buddhism says that this body does not exist and is made up of the four elements. That's what it means, but there are a few people who understand the secret. You will know it when you take that step!" Zhen Yuanzi laughed.
Just when Shao Yan was about to speak, the strings of his soul seemed to be plucked lightly, and disappeared in a flash. It was too weak. If Shao Yan hadn't attached great importance to the soul, it would have been impossible to feel it. Shao Yan's abnormality was clear to Immortal Zhen Yuanzi. He laughed and said, "Fellow Taoist, you have indeed reached that edge. Here are those transcendent people coming to congratulate you, and you noticed it!"
"In what form did they come?" Shao Yan was interested. If those people were traveling, they would have been surrounded by ceremonial guards to appear majestic. Unfortunately, that was a mortal's impression, not reality, but they came and went without a trace. Of course, Just for the current Shao Yan, Shao Yan was interested and asked Zhen Yuanzi.
Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said: "Their coming to congratulate you is not what you understand at all. It is intangible and has no quality. It is a joy of the movement of the Dao. How can I put it? It is to use the Dao to show up and communicate, just like a spring dream without a trace. Different levels, of course, have different communication methods.¡±
Shao Yan seemed to understand but could not help shaking his head and laughing: "The great immortal took that step, and the realm is indeed beyond our comprehension!"
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to sigh. With the merits of fellow Taoist, within thousands of years, you will be able to take that step, and you will know when the time comes!" Zhen Yuanzi laughed.
Everyone had a great time communicating with the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi and understood what they should be able to understand. They were all satisfied and said goodbye to the Immortal Zhen Yuanzi and returned to various caves, preparing to fully understand what they had learned today. Shao Yan also worshiped with everyone. The great immortal Yuanzi of the other town came out of Wuzhuang Temple.
Shao Yan has revealed the essence of his vitality in Yu Yutian. Entering Yu Yutian again will not have a significant promotion effect on the growth of his merits. Shao Yan no longer needs to return to Yu Yutian. Shao Yan is ready to leave for Qingweitian. Just when I was about to move my feet, something came to my mind: Wanshou Mountain was originally located in Hezhou, Xiniu, and I had promised to lead the Buddha to visit the Paradise, so I might as well take this opportunity to visit. When I thought of this, the cloud light rose from under my feet and headed towards the Paradise.
While he was walking, a pink light rushed up from the ground and lay in front of him. In a blink of an eye, the aura dissipated. Shao Yan pushed aside the clouds and looked down. He suddenly understood and couldn't help but sigh: "What an injustice! I still have to save her!" Luo Xianyun The light showed a woman in pale pink clothes, lying on the ground with blood oozing out from her ribs.
Shao Yan pointed his hand, and a green light mist rose up and fell on the woman. A black energy came out of the body, and the blood stains faded away. The woman woke up with a cry and saw a young Taoist priest standing not far away. Looking at himself, he was unconscious just now and still had some feeling. Knowing that the Taoist priest had saved him, he struggled to get up, only to find that all the injuries on his body, including the poison, had disappeared, as if he had not been injured at all. He immediately thanked Shao Yan: "Little girl Jialan thanked the Taoist Master for saving his life!"
Shao Yan sighed and said, "It's not easy for you to be a fairy orchid growing beside the Paradise of Paradise. It's not easy for you to transform into another form. You have a great opportunity to be brought into the Paradise of Paradise. Listening to Amitabha's sermons is the dream of many practitioners. Why do you run away from love because of your blessing?You came out of the paradise world and escaped the pursuit of King Kong, but unexpectedly encountered the poisonous sting of the scorpion demon. If I hadn't happened by by chance, you would have died and entered reincarnation again! "
"What the Taoist Master didn't know is that the little girl was originally a fairy orchid that grew outside the Paradise. Thanks to the Venerable Yulin who watered it with the water from the Eight Merit Pond, she was able to develop spiritual wisdom. After she transformed, she received the blessing from the Venerable Yulin. Take us into the Land of Ultimate Bliss and hear the supreme truth! The next day, Venerable Yulin happened to look at the aura of wealth and wealth in the eastern Nanbu continent in the world of mortals. He couldn't help but sigh, as if he had gone there and hit two Come on, meeting two people who are destined to be together is also a wonderful thing! It was originally a joke, but as soon as the thought came up, the Buddha knew it and issued a decree, causing the Venerable Yulin to join a wealthy family in Nanfanbuzhou and live in the world of mortals. Venerable Yulin He has been so kind to me, so I should go to the human world to look for him and repay his kindness!" Galan said.
Shao Yan sighed: "I'm afraid it's not just kindness, but kindness begets love, and evil fate has arisen. If you return to the Paradise of Paradise, Venerable Yulin will be more likely to awaken in the mortal world. If you go, troubles will arise, and it will happen to you all. Disaster, do you still want to go?¡±
Shao Yan's question was actually in vain. He knew that Galan would choose to enter the mortal world without hesitation. As expected, Galan answered without hesitation: "No matter how many disasters I suffer, I am willing to bear it all and enter the mortal world!"
At this moment, Shao Yan raised his head and looked to the west. The fragrant wind was blowing and the auspicious clouds were rolling. But it was a group of Vajra protectors who came to get Galan. Shao Yan waved his hand and blocked Vajra with a blue light and said: "This woman When your ordinary mind is already burning, you should enter the ordinary world for a while, and I will explain it to the Buddha!"
After saying this, Amitabha's voice rang in Shao Yan's heart: "This action of fellow Taoist will only increase the disaster in Yulin!"
"You can't become a Buddha without grinding. This is not a bad thing. Rather than causing trouble again in the future, it is better to solve it together!" Shao Yan also returned with his heart's voice.
"Just follow my fellow Taoist!" Buddha's voice sounded in Shao Yan's heart. The Vajras clearly got the message and saluted Shao Yan. Shao Yan returned the gift and the Vajras retreated.
Jialan looked at Shao Yan in surprise. He didn't expect that Shao Yan was so dignified. King Kong would listen to him and retreat automatically. He bowed and thanked Shao Yan. Shao Yan smiled and said, "You are going to the east, and you will face many disasters. It's me too." If you cause trouble, that's all! I'll give you a thing that will protect you three times. After that, if you encounter a big disaster again, take this thing to the Lianyun Lake Water Mansion in Lianyun Mountain, Dongsheng Shenzhou, and ask for help. Someone will naturally help you!" Shao Yan! Stretching out his hand, a jade talisman condensed out of the void and was thrown to Galan. Galan took it and felt the power in it, which was as deep as the sea, and knew that the other party's level was not what he imagined.
Galan bowed again: "My dear benefactor, may I ask your name?"
Shao Yan laughed and said, "My name is Shao Yan!" Galan read it several times and remembered it in his heart. Shao Yan remembered something and said to Galan: "Usually recite Amitabha's name more often. You are from the West. This is your practice!"
There was a trace of reluctance on Jialan's face, and Shao Yan was amused in his heart. Although she was transformed into a fairy orchid, she was still a woman, and her mind was not big. He changed his mind and said: "If you don't want to, then chant more to lead the Buddha." Name!"
Galan looked confused and asked: "Who is the Buddha?"
Shao Yan laughed and said: "An ancient Buddha has great wishes and deeds, and has great supernatural powers. If he chants it many times, he will naturally respond to his requests!" Galan immediately agreed. The great Buddha in the Paradise of Bliss had a smile on his face and couldn't help but shake his head. Most believers have forgotten the name of Buddha and usually only chant Amitabha.
Galan bid farewell to Shao Yan and headed east. Shao Yan still soared into the clouds and continued to rush to the Paradise.
Shao Yan saw Mahasthamaprapta Bodhisattva waiting for him in the sky from a distance. When he saw Shao Yan, the Bodhisattva clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the Buddha has invited Shao to donate!"
Shao Yan also clasped his hands and said, "Thank you, Bodhisattva!" The two figures suddenly disappeared and entered the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
In the Land of Ultimate Bliss, there are seven layers of railings, seven layers of nets, and seven layers of rows of trees, all surrounded by four treasures. There are also seven treasure pools filled with eight merit waters, and the bottom of the pool is pure gold sand. The steps on the four sides are made of gold, silver, colored glaze and pear. There are pavilions above, decorated with gold, silver, azure, glass, chariot wheels, red beads, and agate. The lotus in the pond is as big as a wheel, with blue light, yellow light, red light, and white light, with a delicate fragrance. There are also all kinds of wonderful and colorful birds transformed by Amitabha¡ªwhite cranes, peacocks, parrots, relics, Kalingbinga, and birds of common destiny. They sound harmonious and elegant at six o¡¯clock day and night, playing the five faculties, the five powers, and the seven bodhisattvas. , the Eightfold Noble Path is divided into such methods.
Shao Yan couldn't help but laugh when he saw the appearance of this world. The Buddha was quite amusing. His own teachings were not enough. He actually transformed into various magical birds and flew all over the sky. They all uttered scriptures. When he was in it, he could hear the wonderful Dharma all the time. He didn't know it. Unconsciously affected.
There are countless living beings here, all born from the lotus, but there are still levels. The high-grade ones are naturally devoted to good deeds and their merits and aspirations are enough to be born in the lotus, while the low-grade ones are often reborn with karma. They have bad karma during their lifetime and then die. Hold the name of Amitabha in front of you??Avalokitesvara and Mahasthamaprapta were introduced into this world for rebirth by the Buddha. After these people are born, all their expenses will naturally be generated according to their wishes. If they want to eat, they will naturally appear in front of them. After eating, the bowls and chopsticks will naturally disappear, and other items will naturally disappear. in this way.
Shao Yan saw the essence at a glance. The needs of all living beings are naturally replenished. There is no need to eat or drink at all. It is just a matter of habits in the previous life, because the past life of bliss and the events of the previous life are clearly in his mind.
Living beings here are divided into nine levels, the so-called nine-level lotus platform. However, on the nine-level lotus platform, if you want to go from the lowest level (lower level to rebirth) to the highest level (upper level to rebirth), it will take twelve kalpas. One kalpa is equal to 16,798,000 years. Therefore, if a person who has been reborn in a lower level wants to cultivate to the highest level, it will take 215,760,000 years to become a Buddha. But if you are in the mortal world and you are determined to practice Buddhism, you will be able to achieve the top grade lotus platform within a lifetime. This is called "a rare thing in life!"
Shao Yan saw a giant Buddha in the center of the Paradise, standing tall on the sky, speaking the Dharma. Countless wonderful sounds came out, and everyone heard them differently, and they were completely suitable for themselves.
As soon as Shao Yan arrived, the Buddha naturally appeared in front of him to greet him, but the big Buddha was still there.
