"Drive!" Ten strange-shaped chariots were galloping on the vast expanse of prairie. The person driving the first chariot was a strong man with a rough and ugly face. On his right hand was a pair of blood-stained battle axes. Although he looks ugly and scary, his eyes are deep and sparkle with wisdom.
Behind the ugly man sat a bald man. He was very thin, but very tall. He had a solemn look on his face. He was holding a strange pestle in his hand. There were three faces carved on the top. Although his clothes were in tatters, , but compared to other chariots, it appears to be much more refined.
But the ugly man said angrily: "Master Tashi, the sun is going down again. When can we return to Taihao?"
"Keep going west, and one day we can return to Taihao!" Tashi said firmly, but mentally he was thinking about his road to becoming a Buddha. It has been more than 20 years, and he has entered middle age according to his age. But they are still so young, and the more than 40 people who came out are also young. There is no erosion of time, only the changes of wind and frost environment.
After starting from the south, he moved to the southwest. Later, when he encountered natural dangers, he moved to the west. He experienced many disasters along the way and lost nine people. Now the total number of people is still thirty-four, and eight more people were built along the way. Ten chariots, ten chariots, have been running on the grassland non-stop for three years. They are on the road for twelve hours a day, but there is still no end in sight for this grassland.
He did not replenish the population, because no one knew what they would encounter on the road ahead. The more people they had, the more powerful they would be, but the target was also bigger. With the speed of the chariot, they could easily avoid being hunted by wild beasts on the grassland.
This ugly man is Li Bu, one of the thirteen generals of the tribe. He has a half-witch heritage and is very intelligent. He has always been loyal to Taihao, even if his loyalty is not enough. But the Jiuli tribe has its roots near Taihao, and Li Bu will return home no matter what.
More than twenty years. Tashi taught Li Bu carefully and imparted a lot of knowledge. The most intuitive manifestation is that his speech is no different from that of modern people, but some allusions are incomprehensible. Tashi is not a reckless person. Esoteric Buddhism can rule the Western Regions. It relies on education, which can lead to wisdom but not wisdom. In the feudal society of the Han people, imperial power was supreme. In a Buddhist country, the Buddha is naturally supreme.
His fighting skills have hardly improved over the years because he has never taken action. Like the ascetic monk wandering in the wind, he wants to practice the path of enlightenment. The secret method is divided into internal and external. He temporarily gave up the external, and in such a special situation In this environment, my inner self improved very quickly, and scriptures that I couldn't understand before gradually became clear. No more feeling of dryness.
In the realm of Dzogchen, he is walking on this path. This path took the great elders hundreds of years, and he is the youngest great supreme in the Yoga Patriarchy. In fact, his qualifications are still above those of the Great Elder. All six senses have been perfected, and he only needs to develop the attachment. Once the self is hidden in consciousness, it can be called Tashi Dzogchen.
But Dzogchen is just the starting point for him, to cultivate to the great world consciousness. That is to say, becoming a Buddha is his pursuit, his Tao, his way, and his country. His Buddha!
"Li Bu, have you ever thought about becoming a king yourself?" Tashi said suddenly.
Li Bu grinned and pointed into the distance, "My back is where the sun rises. I chase the sun. I stop at night. You said the light on the moon is also the sun's light. I am also under the sun's rays." Down!"
"Then do you have a Buddha in your heart? The Buddha is nothingness, in the clouds, in the void, where the sun cannot shine." Tashi continued. Over the years, he has figured out one thing. If there is no faith, even if there is no faith, What is the use of becoming a Buddha? How can the Buddha's light be used to save all sentient beings? Buddhism is beyond Brahmanism in ancient India. The emergence of Buddha requires the belief of the Buddha's country.
Only a country that had no faith at all before can quickly develop into a Buddhist country!
"Many years later, if you are still the same Tashi you are now, then I will be the current Zhang Heng!" Zhang Heng's words kept echoing in his mind. He naturally understood what they meant. It was precisely because of this that he did not conquer other people along the way. A primitive man, but if he wants to become a Buddha, he must have a conflict with Zhang Heng.
Taihao already has a Sun King, can he still accommodate a Buddha? The answer is self-evident, Taihao can only have one religious leader.
"Detour~!" Li Bu suddenly stopped the chariot, and the nine chariots that followed also slowed down, gathered in a circle, defended and rested on the spot, and began to live and cook.
"Master Tashi, how big is the sacred land? How many years will it take for the chariot to reach the end?" Li Bu suddenly asked.
"I don't know!" Zhaxi clasped his hands and said. He really didn't know. Everything about the Divine Land can be said to be unknown.
"Submit yourself to the Sun King and let the King grant you the land. The King will take care of the land that cannot be seen." Li Bu's eyes flashed with the light of wisdom. His state was completely caused by Tashi unintentionally. In addition to eating every day, he chanted Sutra, sometimes he would stop to teach LiLi Bu could not understand the scriptures of Bu culture, but he was baptized by the sound of the scriptures. After listening to them for more than 20 years, Li Bu could become a great lama if he went to Tantric Buddhism in the Western Regions.
Tashi's eyes suddenly lit up, and many possibilities emerged. He didn't believe that Zhang Heng didn't want to be a god. Even if he wasn't a god, he would still be a god believed by primitive people. But if he was given a piece of land, it didn't need to be big, or even It can be in the place with the worst environment. The environment in the Western Regions is not good to begin with. Such an environment makes it easier to condense beliefs and is less likely to be affected by Zhang Heng, keeping the faith single.
"You are right, he is his emperor, I only need a small place to become a Buddha!" ??Tashi's eyes gradually became firmer, and at this moment he actually realized it, and his whole body began to exude an inexplicable aura. The ego was actually raised in such a state and entered the seventh consciousness of Manas.
"Guard!" Li Bu shouted silently. Soon, more than thirty people quietly guarded Tashi in the middle. Li Bu didn't know what happened to Tashi, but the Sun King had also appeared before. At that time, the Sun King went out alone and ended up accidentally entering the cave of the Li tribe, and he became the general of the Taihao tribe.
As if it were the whole world, or just a moment, Tashi's execution was revealed in the sea of ??consciousness. This was the most persistent thing in his life, an ethereal consciousness. He originally thought it would be some unknown Buddha. But it turned out to be just a bright Buddhist lamp.
"Buddha lamp, why is it a Buddha lamp? I know very well that what I am pursuing is to become a Buddha!" ??Tashi murmured, and this sitting lasted seven days and seven nights. Only the dew on his cheeks and fingers maintained his physical skills. Li Bu and others also guarded the side for seven days and seven nights. They were ready for a protracted war. Animal pens had been built around the perimeter, and the Sun King would also This kind of meditation would happen after several months, so they were not surprised at all by Tashi's performance.
"Dipamkara (Sanskrit), Ti Huan Jie, Ti He Jie Luo. The translation of Ruiying Sutra is called Ding Guang, and the translation of Dazhidu Sutra is called Ran Deng. When he was born, all the lights around him were like lamps, so he was called Ran Deng Buddha and also called Ding Guang. Buddha. Could this bright lamp refer to the past Buddha of the Western Paradise, the ancient Buddha who burned the lamp!" Tashi looked horrified.
There are three supreme Buddhas in Zen Buddhism in Han Buddhism: the past Buddha (the ancient Buddha of the Deng Deng), the present Buddha (the Great Sun Tathagata), and the future Buddha (Maitreya Buddha), who exist in the Western Paradise. The Buddha Sakyamuni was a disciple of Ran Deng in his past life, and Mahavatha Tathagata was a Tantric Buddha. In Journey to the West, Tang Monk went to the Western Regions to obtain scriptures, so it was written as Mahavatha Tathagata. The Buddha has three bodies, namely: Dharmakaya Buddha, Sambhogakaya Buddha and Yingsheng Buddha. The Great Sun Tathagata is the Dharmakaya Buddha, one of the three bodies of Sakyamuni Buddha.
But Tantric Buddhism does not agree with Sakyamuni Buddha and believes that Mahavairocana and Sakyamuni are two persons. And the teacher of Mahavairocana is not Lantern, but Kassapa Buddha, one of the seven Buddhas in the past. It was predicted that Sakyamuni would become a Buddha in later generations. Kasyapa Buddha was also the true founder of yoga and the highest Buddha in Tashi's heart.
As for Amitabha, later generations learned from Sakyamuni that he was the lord of the Western Paradise, but he had died hundreds of thousands of years ago. It is entirely possible that he was a fictitious Buddha created by Sakyamuni with the purpose of creating bliss. World, encourage people to do good!
If analyzed from the perspective of Sakyamuni's teacher, Kassapa Buddha and Randen Buddha may be the same person, but the names of Tantra and Zen are different. Tashi can only comfort himself in this way now, otherwise he is a Tantra supreme. The self-cultivation is actually the ancient Buddha of Zen Buddhism. What is this? Doesn't this overturn his long-held belief in Buddhist Tantra?
But if Tashi knew that Elder Dzogchen¡¯s obsession was Kassapa Buddha, he probably wouldn¡¯t think so. Analyzing the two people¡¯s egos alone, Lantern Buddha and Kassapa Buddha are not the same Buddha, but two A Buddha.
"Let's get on the road. If I don't become a Buddha, my practice will have no end!" Tashi opened his eyes. This is a sacred land. There is no belief in Buddha, so there is no need to divide it into Tantra and Zen.
"Yes, Mr. Tashi!" Li Bu agreed and started to greet the tribes to pack up their chariots and set off. He thought in his heart, what is the use of being a king? Everything is for the tribe. Only after Taihao grows stronger can the Li tribe prosper. , his words and deeds represent not only Taihao, but also the Li tribe.
The sutras rang in his ears again. It was Tashi who was reciting sutras. Under the sound of Buddha, Li Bu seemed to see the future. When the descendants of the Sun King were born, there would be a fight for the crown prince, and various factions in the tribe would fight for their own. As the tribe grows, different crown princes are selected. The Hyuga tribe, the Kui tribe, the Chun tribe, the Qin tribe, and the Xia tribe. With one emperor and one courtier, will the Li tribe have a chance to dominate other tribes and factions?
"Master Tashi, Li Bu, I want to ask you a favor!" Li Bu suddenly requested.
Tashi stopped chanting. This was the first time that Li Bu had asked for something from him, and he had to pay attention to it. As long as Li Bu was around, he was full of confidence in the journey to the west. Although he did not continue to study war,However, he gradually taught Li Bu the tantric techniques that can improve combat effectiveness. Chanting sutras was also part of the teaching, but Li Bu didn't know it. More than twenty years later, Li Bu's combat effectiveness has reached a very powerful level. To such an extent, you can defeat him with one hand. If you use both hands, he may not even have a chance to escape. He raised a strong man to leave a way for himself and to protect him on his way westward.
"What's the matter?" Tashi asked with a smile. He really couldn't guess.
Li Bu took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said, "If you know the candidate for the crown prince in the future, please tell me as soon as possible!"
Tashi¡¯s expression changed. He understood what Li Bu meant, and the choice of the prince was also related to his future. It should be said that it was the future of Buddhism! (To be continued)
