"Why did you stop it? The poor monk thinks this piece of music is quite good and can train people's state of mind." Zong Li refused to let go of even the slightest opportunity to gain an advantage, pretending to be indifferent.
Han Du took a deep look at him and suddenly sneered and said: "Master has a transcendent state of mind, and I admire it." Suddenly his tone changed and he continued: "Do you think that other monks have such a state of mind as you, Master?"
, can they all be as immovable as you, Master? Even if they can do it, can the common people in this world do it?"
Han Du's few words were like sharp swords that pointed directly at the vital point, and the calm and indifferent expression on Zong Li's face suddenly changed.
He understood that what Han Du said was correct. He could regard everything in front of him as a dream, but it did not mean that all the monks in the world could regard it as a dream like him. If he could really do it, then Huixin would
I won’t almost ruin my life’s practice.
As for the people of the world, it is even more impossible. Haven’t you seen that the opera house has been overcrowded every day since Yao Yue took the stage?
"Let's talk about the conditions." Zong Li was silent for a long time, and finally said helplessly.
When Han Du heard this, he smiled.
That's right. Since we are here to negotiate, we should go straight to the point and negotiate terms. What's the point of continuing to hold on here? If we hold on to tension, it won't come down to negotiating terms in the end.
If we don't negotiate terms, it will look fake and neither of us can trust each other.
"One is no longer pestering Yao Yue, and the other is calling on temples all over the world to sell all their temple fields." Han Du smiled and opened his mouth wide.
It was indeed a mouthful. After hearing Han Du's conditions, Zong Lai, who had not even been moved by Yao Yue's performance, had a surprised look on his face.
After closing his eyes and pondering for a long time, Zong Lai's face became increasingly ugly. After waiting for a while, he opened his eyes, stared at Han Du, and said: "I can agree to the first condition. But the second...
.I want to ask, is it your intention or the emperor’s?"
"Of course it is what I mean." Han Du replied without hesitation.
Han Du was telling the truth, but Zong Lai didn't believe it at all.
Because no matter what Zong Lai thinks, he doesn't think there is any relationship between Han Du and Temple Tian. In his opinion, neither the temple nor Temple Tian has any influence on Han Du. The only one who has an influence is the emperor, so even if it is
Han Du denied it, but Zong Li also believed that this must be the emperor's intention. On the contrary, the more straightforward Han Du denied it, the more certain he became in his own thoughts.
Taking a deep breath, Zong Li knew that the biggest crisis for Buddhism in the world was coming, and he couldn't help but deal with it cautiously.
"Amitabha, has my Buddhist sect ever offended you? If so, please tell me. I will definitely punish you severely and I won't give you an explanation."
"No." Han Du replied firmly.
Hearing this, Zong Li suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice: "Then why do you want to put my Buddhist disciple to death?"
"A place of death? I don't think so." Han Du smiled.
Looking at Zong Lai, who was still sitting quietly in front of him despite his ugly face, Han Du had to admire his good nature. In this case, Han Du had the patience to explain to him. "What is death and what is life?"
?In my opinion, if Buddhism in the world continues to occupy land as it is now, it will be a real dead end."
Zong Li has a firm mind, and it is not just these two sentences that can impress him.
Seeing that Zong Lai's expression remained unchanged, Han Du continued: "The temple already has the income from incense money, so why bother about the land? And even if Buddhism takes over all the land in the world, does the master think that Buddhism will prosper in that way?
On the contrary, in my opinion, that is the time when Buddhism will die. Master is a scholar of heaven and man, so you probably don’t know about the old affairs of Emperor Wu of Liang, right?"
To be honest, Zong Li didn't pay too much attention to what Han Du said. A person with a firm mind like him would not change his mind easily. However, although he has been thinking about how to expand Buddhism since he was a child, he has not known it for so many years.
What exactly is the broad Buddhist sect?
Perhaps "the four hundred and eighty temples in the Southern Dynasties, and how many towers are in the mist and rain" can be regarded as the vastness of Buddhism? This is indeed the best era for Buddhism, but it is also the darkest era for Buddhism.
When Han Du mentioned the old story of Emperor Wu of Liang, Zong Lai couldn't help but shrink his pupils slightly with a rock-solid heart, showing a hint of fear. That era was indeed something that Buddhists in the world yearned for, but at the same time it also made them all fearful.
Zong Long thought for a long time, looked at Han Du and said slowly: "Death, Lord Han has said it. What about life? The poor monk is willing to hear the details."
Han Du smiled and spoke eloquently, "The world belongs to everyone, whether it is Buddhism or others. No one can take advantage of all the benefits in the world. If anyone takes advantage of it, then leave."
Death is not far away. Buddhism is not engaged in production and can only rely on the people of the world."
Zong Lai was naturally dissatisfied when he saw that Han Du spoke so unfavorably of Buddhism that he barely pointed at him and scolded Buddhism as a loser.
When Han Du saw it, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't deny it, it's useless to deny it. This is the fact. Therefore, if Buddhism wants to be broad, it must rely on the people of the world. The people of the world will live a better life, and Buddhism
Then it will naturally become more prosperous. If the skin is not there, the hair will be there. If the skin can grow hair, how can it not be prosperous? No matter how much land the Buddhist sect occupies and how much wealth it gathers, what can it do? The great thing is just inside the temple.
, just make a few more clay sculptures of golden bodies. But master, don’t you think that it is much better to have the Buddha’s golden body sculpted in the hearts of the people than to have it sculpted in a temple?”
It is better to build a golden body in the hearts of the people than in temples. Zong Lai naturally understood this truth. But he was not a fool and would not be blinded by Han Du's seemingly high-sounding words. He knew deeply that
It is so difficult to build a golden body among the common people. On the contrary, it is very easy to build a golden body from clay. As long as you have money, you can find some craftsmen to get some clay and you can build it casually.
"Mold the golden body into the hearts of the people..." Zong Lai kept chanting these words softly. After a moment, he clasped his hands together, saluted, and said: "Amitabha, Mr. Han has profound Buddha nature.
The poor monk admires him."
What, what the hell?
How come I have become a person with profound Buddha nature? Isn’t it Yao Yue’s?
Han Du was so frightened that he waved his hands suddenly and said fiercely: "Don't tell me this. It is impossible for me to become a monk."
