Chapter 582 An Shigao
A true Buddhist disciple should have no desires and no desires, no greed or fight. Sun Quan now, on the surface, is trying to promote Buddhism and be kind to Buddhism, but the old monk can't see Sun Quan's real purpose. While Sun Quan gave Buddhism great benefits, he also hoped that Buddhist disciples could help him. This is a transaction, which takes advantage of human greed.
As long as Buddhist disciples have no desires, they will naturally not be deceived by Sun Quan. Even in Sun Quan's view, this is not a fool, but a win-win situation. But for Buddhist monks, what is "winning"? Why win?
"The master is right. What I am looking for is not a Buddha. But there is no true Buddha in the world, and Buddhas are all in the West. Although people in the world are looking for Buddha, they are not a Buddha, right?" Sun Quan smiled and said, when it comes to sophistry, he is not inferior to anyone, without desires or seeking? No greed or fighting? How many people in the world can do it? Buddhist disciples may have less greed than ordinary people, but Sun Quan believes that it is just a little less.
Look at the time when Shu Rong believed in Buddhism, built temples everywhere, and tried every means to accumulate blessings for himself. This is Shu Rong's greed. Including the vast majority of Buddhist believers now seek peace by asking God and worshiping Buddha. Isn't it also a kind of greed to seek peace?
Therefore, what Sun Quan needs is never a monk who has attained enlightenment. What he is not looking for is Buddha, he just wants to use the power of Buddha. Those Buddhist disciples and those Buddhist believers are Sun Quan’s goal!
"Including the master himself, the master advised me to turn back and it was the shore. I wonder what thoughts did I think?" Sun Quan smiled at the old monk.
"The general is a person with wisdom, and I am just an ordinary monk. I am naturally a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the True Buddha, so I have to constantly comprehend the words of the Buddha. If the general is interested, why don't you understand it together with me?" said the old monk.
Sun Quan tilted his head,
"What are the benefits of meditation?"
The old monk shook his head and smiled,
"I don't know what benefits can a general get. But the more I understand what a Buddha is, the closer I get to the general's purpose, isn't it?"
"good!"
Sun Quan laughed loudly and sat down on the spot, knowing himself and his enemy, and he would never be defeated in a hundred battles. He wanted to hear what kind of flowers this old monk could say.
And when Sun Quan sat down, he sat until the end of the illusion.
Reality Dividing Line
Appearing from the Sansong Illusion, Sun Quan was still a little dazed, and the sounds of Buddha were repeatedly lingering in his ears, but he could not drive them away!
"This monk does have some tricks!"
Sun Quan sighed in his heart, but he didn't know that the old monk was far more skillful than what he thought.
Nowadays, Sun Quan has a biased understanding of his own because his heart of Tao was not cultivated by himself. Theoretically, Sun Quan, who has a heart of Tao, will be firm and will be as heart as a rock, and will not be easily affected by anything. Anything, including adverse factors, also includes favorable factors.
For example, if a woman uses charm to seduce Sun Quan, Sun Quan, who has the heart of Tao, can be as calm as water; then similarly, Buddhist disciples talk about Buddhism to Sun Quan, but reasonably Sun Quan should not be affected at all.
As a result, Sun Quan has completely listened to it now! To put it too much, it is like a scientist being moved by a theologian!
Although Sun Quan did not fully realize the power of this monk, at least he is very sure now that this person is indeed a Buddhist monk, not a liar.
According to the contact between Sun Quan and Sansi in the illusion of the illusion during the day, it is probably impossible for Sun Quan to convince the monk and ask the other party to help him. Even the other party disagrees with Sun Quan's initiative to approach Buddhism. This will certainly bring some benefits to Buddhism, but it will also lead Buddhism into disputes. Buddhist disciples should not ask about worldly affairs. If they really do what Sun Quan wants, they will go astray.
Thinking of this, Sun Quan couldn't help but frown. How should he do what he should do to such a Buddhist monk who has no help to him and may hinder his plan?
Sun Quan just now had heard of the monk's lesson and knew the other party's ability. He believed that even if he tried his best to persuade the Buddhist representative in Xia Pi City, as long as the monk taught the other party a lesson, the covenant would probably be scrapped immediately.
So, kill this monk?
No! Not to mention that such a powerful monk cannot have any means. Even if Sun Quan is really killed, once it is exposed, Sun Quan may not make friends with Buddhism, but will become a mortal enemy of Buddhism.
If you can't kill it, it's best not to let it go either. So if you put it in house arrest? This is not a good idea.
etc!
Recalling what he saw and heard today, Sun Quan suddenly felt his heart moving, and then his lips curled up, hehe, there is one!
Even though you have a profound Buddhist teachings, you are far from comparable to Sun Quan in terms of military tactics, routines, and methods. Sun Quan knew that this monk should be of the type of Yiyun Yehe, just like he had the idea of persuading Sun Quan to turn back, but he never forced him. Therefore, even if he saw through Sun Quan's routine in the future, this monk probably wouldn't deliberately oppose Sun Quan and destroy Sun Quan's plan.
Everything goes with the flow, even if the Buddha is prosperous or the Buddha is destroyed, this eminent monk will not be attached to it.
the next day,
Sun Quan approached Diao Chan and told him,
"The Sutra of Yin Guan Encyclopedia, the Four Truths of Abhidharma, the Twelve Relations of Dependence, the Eightfold Path of Right, the Eightfold Path of Zen, the Thoughts of the Meditation, and the Practice Path, who can you associate with these sutras?"
"Where did you hear these?" Diao Chan looked at Sun Quan in surprise. However, in one night, Sun Quan found so much information? "I don't really know much about Buddhist scriptures, but what you said seems to be the scriptures of Hinayana Buddhism..." Speaking of this, Diao Chan seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Wait! An Shigao!" Diao Chan exclaimed.
"An Shigao?" Sun Quan didn't know much about this name.
"Oh! I should have thought of it!" Diao Chan couldn't help but stomp her feet, "There is no name for the four rivers entering the sea, and the four surnames are called Shi Zong. This is a famous quote by Master An Shi Gao!"
"Whatever?"
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, and then he slowly thought about it. This corresponds to the fact that the monk yesterday claimed that his name was gone. Just ask Sun Quan to call him a monk. The same meaning, but in other words, the style will be different at once!
"Is this monk very famous?" Sun Quan asked.
"It's not just famous!" Diao Chan said seriously, "It is said that An Shigao practiced Buddhism for three generations and was a legendary figure in Buddhism. He has a very high generation. Many Buddhist scriptures were introduced to the Central Plains by him, including the current host of White Horse Temple, who had also received his teachings!" As he said that, Diao Chan hurriedly pulled Sun Quan out, "Let's go and invite people back and settle down for a long time. As long as he is willing to help, your affairs will basically be done! We don't know what luck we will encounter this person who is a dragon who is not at the end."
"No, no, no." Sun Quan quickly stopped Diao Chan, "Do you think the master would be willing to help me?"
"How can you know if you don't go and ask!" Diao Chan said immediately.
"I am a monk who is born and born, but I am just a plain person. It doesn't matter if I ask for help, but I'm afraid that they will refuse in person. Then this matter will be embarrassing. Once it is spread, I'm afraid it will backfire." Sun Quan explained.
Diao Chan heard it was reasonable, so she turned around and said,
"If you don't have a good time, I'll go alone. Let's help you explore the wind first."
"No need." Sun Quan waved his hand, and without waiting for Diao Chan to speak, he smiled, "I have a better way."
