The Buddhist scriptures say: "When you hear the sound of the bell, your troubles will be cleared, your wisdom will grow, and your bodhi will increase."
Generally speaking, the bell will ring 108 times tonight, which means to eliminate 108 sufferings in life and pray for success in the coming year.
All the monks were sitting inside and outside the main hall.
Knock wooden fish together and read scriptures silently.
Even the Sesshoji Temple, which has always been austere, lit many oil lamps at this time.
There are also two red lanterns hanging on the corners, one on the left and one on the right.
The Shasheng Temple is located in southern Xinjiang.
Southern Xinjiang is located in the ‘Li’ position in the Bagua directions.
Therefore, southern Xinjiang is also called "Lihuang".
It is hot all year round, and there is less of the white throb of snow in winter in the north.
Lichen is located at the front of the Main Hall.
Behind him are three elders and five leaders.
Before you know it, it’s the end of the year.
The last bell was exactly one hundred and eight.
The aftertaste of the bell still echoes.
At this time, the Shasheng Temple can be said to be 'completely silent'.
As soon as the bell stops ringing, there is a beginning and an end.
"Buddha... offer incense~"
The obscure Zen master behind him said in a deep voice.
Li Chen understood the meaning in his heart, put his hands together in salute, and then took a stick of incense from the side.
This fragrance is as tall as half a person and as thick as a calf.
When you light the incense head, it's like covering a big red bowl.
The white smoke curls up like a goddess.
With a pious face on his face, Li Chen bowed and knelt before putting the incense into the incense burner.
There is a saying in Buddhism that "incense is the messenger of the Buddha". Buddhists believe that incense can reach people's faith in the Buddha and is like the messenger of the Buddha. Therefore, burning incense has become an important way for people to communicate with the Buddha and convey their wishes.
The first incense stick at the beginning of every new year is the ‘first incense’.
Usually the incense is applied by the host.
However, Zen Master Huizhuo, the abbot of Shasheng Temple, has been practicing in seclusion, and Zen Master Huizhuo used to do it for him.
And this year, it will naturally be completed by the Buddha who kills the living being.
"Amitabha."
"Buddha bless you and everything will go well."
"Let me, Sesshoji, return to the position of Sanyuan as soon as possible."
"Amitabha."
The three walls are the central three walls: Ziwei Yuan, Taiwei Yuan and Tianshi Yuan.
It is the center of all sects.
The top existence of Dazhou.
The former Sesshoji Temple stood in the center of the three walls.
Admired by thousands of people.
The common goal of all the monks of Sesshou Temple is to return to the Central Three Walls.
After this competition, Sesshou Temple has initially unified the Southern Xinjiang sects.
But if you want to get out of southern Xinjiang and set foot in Kyushu, you need to go one step further.
After the ceremony, Li Chen stood still slightly, and the monks behind him stood up and prayed together.
Not long after, a piece of "Prajna Heart Sutra" was finished reciting.
Zen Master Huiming waved his hand and saw that Xiangji Kitchen had sent a prepared vegetarian meal waiting for all the monks to enjoy it together.
In addition to Li Ergou and Wang Fugui, there are also Ji Xuefu, a disciple of Jinxiuchuan, and Aunt Lan, an old woman who takes care of her daily life.
In the past few days, Ji Xuefu finally recovered some of her complexion. Although she still went crazy occasionally, she was much better than before.
As soon as the hot meals were served, Li Chen even brought out some fine old wine to entertain them.
The monks also let go of their reserve and were very happy.
Li Chen paid New Year's greetings to the elders, masters, chiefs, and senior brothers one by one.
After three rounds of wine, the five flavors of food are gone.
Li Chen carried the wine gourd and came to the outside of the hall alone.
I looked up at the deep night and couldn't help but smile.
Unknowingly, it has been more than a year since I came to this world.
From being ignorant at the beginning to being independent now, we have indeed gone through a lot.
I recall the fear and anxiety when I first arrived, and then the indifference later.
What is the pursuit of the world of immortality?
Once upon a time, Zen Master Lonely said that he lacked a ‘heart of seeking truth’.
Buddhism's cultivation of the mind is to constantly seek, to seek verification, and to remain calm after experiencing everything.
But after being separated from the world for two lifetimes and experiencing two lifetimes, one is born with the realm that Buddhism pursues.
Therefore, without the process of seeking, there will inevitably be less desire for verification.
This is to abandon the basic and pursue the weak.
If a person has no goals, no matter how high his cultivation level is, he will always be confused and will never find his own way.
This is in line with the saying in the previous life: If a person has no ideals, what difference does he have from a salted fish?
But after the experiences of the ‘Bamboo Bamboo Shooting Conference’, ‘Life-killing Conference’, ‘Fighting Competition’, and two attacks on Wanshou Villa, Li Chen finally made up for his spiritual shortcomings.
What's more, he also has rare things in the world such as the 'Language Mirror'.
I never expected that I would embark on the path of spiritual practice in this world.
And twice soon I finally discovered the true meaning of this world of cultivating immortals.
There are six realms of practice: acquired, innate, inner scene, outer scene, questioning, and enlightenment.
Among them, acquired and innate are the foundation.
The interior and exterior scenes are the seeds of the small world.
Asking questions and proving the truth are the prototype of the small world.
Once the enlightenment is successful, then the opening of the small world will be successful.
The so-called ascension is actually the process of using your own small world to separate from the original world.
That is, the collision between the 'Tao' of one's own achievements and the 'Original Dao'.
Break away or surrender.
This is the true meaning of ascension.
Breaking free is the great liberation, completely jumping out of reincarnation, just like the gods in ancient times.
Not bound by the laws of heaven, truly free and free.
Surrender is not completely considered a successful ascension. It is still attached to the original world and follows the laws of the original heaven.
Of course, compared to the previous mortal body, you may be able to gain more lifespan, greater strength, and more freedom.
But it is still bound by the way of heaven, which is not a true great liberation.
After Li Chen saw the handwriting left by Patriarch Bu Kong on the Bu Kong Waterfall, he decided that he must achieve true great liberation and freedom in this life.
Jump out of reincarnation and explore the supreme wonderland.
Once you come, do it recklessly!
I don’t know what kind of small world I will open up.
Li Chen's eyes were blazing, and in the night sky, stardust finally shone.
He raised his gourd and took a sip of wine.
['Drunkard' drinks fine wine, the sun and moon wonders rotate faster.]
[‘Zhi Sou’ sighed deeply and lamented that he had grown one year older, and the growth ring pattern of the causal round light also grew in a circle.]
[‘True Listen’ is lying in the small dark room, listening quietly to something.]
After a while, Li Chen breathed out a breath of alcohol.
At this moment, his mind moved, and his thoughts had already transferred into the sea of consciousness.
A wisp of spiritual thought was released, directly entering the 'Tears of Love'.
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Xiangfei Valley, the three women were naturally ecstatic.
When greeting each other, there is also a feeling of resentment.
Li Chen didn't dare to stay longer, he just paid New Year's greetings and left in a hurry.
Only the three women were angry and found it funny.
After saying goodbye to the three girls, Li Chen came to the South Country.
Today's Nanguo is indeed much more lively than usual.
At this time, the number of Renyuan dolls on the tree has increased to sixteen.
Southern tradition: bringing the old with the new.
They naturally gave each other a code name, which sounded like Mr. Hongdou’s great achievements.
