    Dai Guoshi's Taoist title only has two characters, Xuanyin!  When Master Zixuan heard this Taoist name, Weiwei was surprised.  ¡ò ¡ò Because this Dao number is so familiar.  It is the Taoist nickname of Fourth Senior Brother Xu Changqing.  Since that day, Xu Changqing took his master Zixuan to the Dao Palace to enter the palace, and left without saying goodbye. Thirty years after leaving, he never came back when the ancestor opened the altar.  Master Zixuan also knew at that time that the fourth senior brother had left the mountain and his whereabouts were unknown, which was normal.  Because the sixth senior brother Li Xiu is the only one who has grown up practicing in Qingwei Cave.  Will this generation of national master be Xu Changqing?  This idea only flashed through his mind, and then he denied it.  From what Sima Daozi said, the temperament and acting style of the Imperial Master were really completely different from Xu Changqing's acting style. ?????????????????????? There are countless practitioners in the world, and there are many people who fall into the trap according to their seniority.  Just like in Taoist temples all over the world, there are countless Taoist boys called Qingfeng and Mingyue.  Sima Daozi took his master Zixuan into the main hall.  Without any warning, he went in directly.  In the main hall of Dao Yisi, there are no statues of Taoism or Buddha. There is nothing on the altar, except for an incense bowl, which is meant to enshrine the dharma realm of heaven and earth.  But when Shi Zixuan entered the temple, the first thing he was attracted to was not the altar, but the monks scattered on futons in front of the altar.  This monk is short in stature, has small eyes, a flat nose, and abnormal facial features.  In terms of facial appearance, let alone plumpness, it looks ugly to anyone.  ¡°But this monk¡¯s appearance is not that of an adult, let alone that of an old man.  But the appearance of a child.  Master Zixuan always thought that Master Hanshan, who was famous all over the world for his virtue, would be an old monk.  Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a little monk.  It cannot be said that he is a little monk, but he is immortal and his appearance is passed down from the heart.  Although the monk in front of him looks like a child.  But Master Zixuan naturally would not judge people by their appearance.  "Junior Master Zixuan, I have met Master Hanshan." Master Zixuan stepped forward to pay homage, doing the etiquette of asking an elder to see him.  Master Hanshan laughed, but when he opened his mouth, he said in a childlike voice, "Get up, get up, there is no need to be polite." He glanced at Sima Daozi and said, "I have something I want to talk to my little friend in private." Sima Daozi said knowingly.  : "Okay. Master, if anything happens, please call me." After saying that.  Sima Daozi blinked at Shi Zixuan, his meaning was unclear, and Shi Zixuan didn't understand what it meant.  After Sima Daozi left, Master Hanshan stood up and paid his respects to Master Xuanda.  Master Zixuan was shocked.  He hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said, "Master, what do you mean by this?" Master Hanshan said, "This is a worthy act of worship. I would like to thank you for your generous donation." Master Xuanwei was stunned and said, "Master, what do you mean by this? I  "There is no charity." Master Hanshan said: "Why not? Yesterday, fellow Taoist Sima came to tell me that the way to make money is a way for practitioners in the world to make money by themselves. Although it is not charity, it is.  It is better than giving, so that monks in the world will not worry about money matters." Master Zixuan said a little embarrassedly: "Master, I am embarrassed to say this. I have no such intention in my heart about money matters.  It¡¯s my own use. Besides, even if I can move the world¡¯s gold mountains, it will only make greedy people more greedy. In the end, I have to overcome the greed of people.¡± Master Hanshan nodded: ¡°  My friend is correct. But even so, it will be of great benefit to the world¡¯s Buddhist temples. In the future, the Buddhist temples can be built by oneself, but the believers will not have to contribute all the money." Master Hanshan listened.  There was a hint of worry.  I couldn't help but ask: "Master, what are you worried about, why don't you say it?" Master Hanshan didn't mince words either.  He nodded and said: "Yes. The poor monk is indeed worried. I think there are too many Taoist temples in the world today!" Master Zixuan couldn't help but wonder: "Isn't it good to have more Taoist temples and Buddhist temples? Not only Buddhists and Taoists  The place of practice can also suppress Feng Shui and open the door for all living beings. This is a good thing. " Master Hanshan sighed: "It is a good thing, but it may not be without disadvantages. In Taoist temples, there are gains and losses.  There are more and more Buddha and Taoist statues, and the more they are cultivated, the more magnificent they become. This has deviated from the original intention of the statue. "They are all practicing people, so there is no need to say more.  Regardless of whether Taoist temples or temples enshrine Taoist images and practitioners worship them, they are all honoring the sages and ancestors.  The reason why believers visit this place is to facilitate their practice, pay homage to the ministers and get close to the Dharma.  "But Master Hanshan is now in charge of both Buddhism and Taoism in the world. He inadvertently counted the number of Taoist temples in the world.  It doesn¡¯t count that I don¡¯t know, it counts.When they got up, there were actually 41,000 of them, occupying countless mountains, forests and fields.  Then he started building Taoist temples and erecting golden statues.  How much money is this?  Having said that, is Master Hanshan¡¯s worry unreasonable?  The large number of Buddhist temples and Taoist temples also proves that Buddhism and Taoism are prosperous, and Buddhist and Taoist disciples have made great achievements in spreading the Dharma. This is a good thing.  But Master Hanshan said: "The greatest prosperity must decline. The roots of the Dharma are deep and universal, and they cannot be prosperous for a moment. The prosperity of this moment may not be the cause of disaster in the future. Nowadays, people are kind and their thoughts are simple. But what about the future? If there is one  On this day, the living people saw that they had no place to live and no fields to cultivate, but the Buddhist temples and Taoist temples were magnificent, and the golden statues of Dharma were everywhere, one was taller than the other, and there were more and more places.  ?" Master Zixuan looked solemn, thought about it carefully, and nodded: "Yes!" Master Hanshan asked: "Why are you resentful?  , self-generated hatred and resentment!" Master Zixuan said.  Why did Master Zixuan say that?  What do you mean?  ?Said before.  Buddhist temples and Taoist temples were not built randomly.  They are all eminent monks and virtuous people, who have chosen the earth's veins and determined the Feng Shui pattern.  When the Taoist statues in temples are consecrated, the real immortal Buddhas and Bodhisattvas will leave the incarnation of their spiritual consciousness on them, which can also increase blessings and support for one party.  What benefits will this bring?  There are many benefits.  For example, natural disasters are rare, but if there are disasters, danger can be turned into safety.  If the weather is smooth on one side, all sentient beings on that side will do things smoothly.  Diseases occur rarely, and even if they do occur, they will be contained quickly.  Invisibly dissipated.  These are all intangible benefits.  Invisible, intangible, but definitely there. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The human body is a mortal body.  Intangible benefits cannot be seen or touched.  Will anyone believe it?  Of course there is, but few believe it.  There are also those who don¡¯t believe it at all, and will sneer at it and completely deny it.  And most people.  They may believe in fictitious things, but they may be dubious. When it benefits themselves, they will be devout and convinced.  If it is not for their own benefit, they will mostly deny it.     seeing is believing!  There is nothing better than this in the world.  But often.  The eyes are unreliable, which is an obstacle to seeing and knowing.  Therefore, Master Hanshan is very worried that when people's hearts change again in the future and their interest in profit becomes too serious, they will visit Buddhist temples and Taoist temples and practice solemnly.  There are countless golden bodies of Dharma statues and tall pagodas, which give rise to various problems such as: "No matter how beautiful the golden body is, it can be built in many temples. What problem can be solved? With all this money, it is better to give more relief to the poor and practice more  There is a good way to go." and other remarks.  Is this statement correct?  Can¡¯t tell right or wrong.  Use money to build bridges and pave roads, and the benefits are now.  It makes travel easier and is also beneficial to future generations.  This is right.  It is also a great merit.  But are there any benefits to building temples and temples?  There are, but they are intangible benefits.  He exists, but cannot be seen or heard.  It is also a great merit.  This leads to a problem.  When natural disasters occur, such as frequent floods, everyone rushes to rescue and provide disaster relief, but it is useless to rush to block the disaster.  The flood was about to burst the embankment, but the flood suddenly and inexplicably receded.  How will people view it?  Some people will say: "Man can conquer nature. This is the result of everyone's rescue." But is this really the case?  People who have never experienced a flood will never imagine that when a natural disaster strikes, manpower is really too weak.  No matter how high the dike is, no matter how many people are involved in rescue operations, when the huge waves hit the flood peak, they will be like chickens and dogs, and are not worth mentioning.  And at this time, what can one do?  Nothing can be done.  I can only ask God to bless me!  Will God bless you?     Won't.  The way of heaven is selfless.  Nothing can be done to all living beings more than what all sentient beings have done.  Asked why the floods came and why there was no good weather. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:  The seeds of the past are sown. When natural disasters strike, don¡¯t blame God.  As the saying goes: Don¡¯t blame God, don¡¯t blame others!  ??In this way, most people in the world only look at immediate interests, and if they don't see or hear them, they treat them as if they don't exist.  What will be the consequences of this?  Master Hanshan has made it very clear, what goes up must come down!  But when I saw the Taoist temples, each one was more magnificent than the other, and the golden statues of Dharma were taller than the last one.  Someone will ask, why?  Why should we spend so much money to build so many Taoist and Buddhist temples, not to mention occupying farmland, without any return of profit?  If you have such doubts, you will have the same mentalityTreat the disciples of Buddhism and Taoism.  ¡°If we meet a practitioner, he is poorly dressed, his clothes are very simple, and his practice environment is very difficult.  Many people will admire you and say that you are a true cultivator.  We must respect!  There is also a cultivator who is very gorgeously dressed and travels in a pompous and high-standard way.  The ashram is also built magnificently and solemnly.  What will others think if they see it?  I don¡¯t know how to look at it, but most people will ask: "If this is the case, are you still a practitioner?" Having said that, what should a practitioner be like?  Is it true that only those who practice hard can be considered as practitioners?  Of course not.  ??Every person has different karma and different ways of practicing.  For example, someone lives in poverty in this life.  To practice in this life, you must be poor and practice hard to temper yourself.  But some people cultivate glory and wealth in this life.  It is to experience and witness all the temptations in the world, such as fame and wealth, so that you can gain wealth and glory in this life, which will confirm your practice.  This is the practice of each person, and he knows himself.  Fellow practitioners will naturally understand and will not have any different thoughts.  But others won¡¯t see it that way.  Doubts are inevitable.  What will be the consequences of this?  Doubtful method!  All kinds of doubts will confuse people's correct faith.  Such doubts about the Dharma actually do no harm to the disciples of Buddhism and Taoism.  But it cuts off the opportunity for those who doubt the Dharma to practice and enter the Tao.  ??And Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are originally places that open the door to convenience for all living beings.  If this causes people in the world to doubt the Dharma and deviate from the Tao, it will be counterproductive.  ps: Okay.  It has been in a sluggish state recently, and the story of Jade Capital City and the Water and Land Dharma Ceremony are the turning points in the story line of this book.  Big ** will come one after another, but it is so difficult to write.  .  .  .  .  Let me think about it carefully and I must write it well.  .  .
