Luo Tian got a hammer from the studio, placed the relic flower on the ground, raised the hammer and knocked it down hard. Cheng Zhen felt a little scared, and closed his eyes tightly at that moment, not daring to look. Then he heard other words
My colleagues exclaimed, and then I opened my eyes and looked towards the ground...
Cheng Zhen saw the relics lying there quietly on the ground, looking motionless. Luo Tianzheng put his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, I'm guilty, I'm guilty."
There was a concave spot under the hammer he held in his hand. Cheng Zhen felt incredible: "Oh my God, the hardness of this relic flower is comparable to that of diamond."
"Some people have doubted the relationship between relics and diamonds, but it has been proven that they are not connected." Luo Tian said: "In fact, when it comes to identifying relics, Buddhists believe that there is no theory of authenticity of relics.
If you can, slide it gently on the glass to break the glass into tiny pieces.
Crack marks. It proves that the hardness is 6.5~7. It is a real relic. If it slips or the relic itself is damaged, it is a relic of a person with insufficient spiritual practice, or a relic that is not considered a virtuous monk according to folk custom. In the narrow sense, it is a fake relic. In the broad sense, it is a fake relic.
It is said that there are no true or false relics in the world, there are only good karma."
Luo Tian put the relics back into the lotus box with reverence, feeling a little more at ease in his heart. Could it be that this relics can really bless future generations?
The difference between Taoism and Buddhism is that after a person with spiritual cultivation in Buddhism passes away, he will leave relics and relic flowers for future generations to worship. It is said that the relics contain the secret treasure of the Tathagata, which can bless future generations.
The goal is to ascend. Taoism and Buddhism each have mysteries. Whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, they all seem to have infinite mysteries. Only those who are destined can understand the truth.
"Luo Tian, I didn't expect you to also study relics." Cheng Zhen was really surprised. He originally thought that Luo Tian was proficient in antiques first, and jewelry second. However, this relic cannot be simply classified into these two categories, but Luo Tian can also understand it.
.
"Actually, relics, like antique jewelry, have their origins and classifications. Relics are generally divided into illusionary relics and real relics," Luo Tian said.
"Among the phantom relics, there are only two kinds of dragon palace relics and heavenly relics. Dragon palace relics only have green and black with a hardness of 7. They will not change even if the fire turns red. And the heavenly relics are mostly transparent white." Wuming Buddhist Academy
The heavenly relics of the "Bliss Dharma Assembly" are all transparent
Perfectly round, followed by creamy yellow, light yellow, such as the heavenly relics that appear in the Bhutan Bliss Dharma Assembly, Ziyun Temple Dharma Assembly, etc. The heavenly relics do not have white color. This is because 'white is the color of the Dharma Realm due to the cultivation of great wisdom.
It is revealed that only the true body relics can be white, especially pure white."
"The true body relics are divided into 1: spiritual bone relics 2: gemstone relics 3: organ relics
4: Physical body relics. The biggest feature of spiritual bone relics is that they are jade, especially the bone marrow, which is generally white jade. The biggest feature of gemstone relics is that they are very hard, harder than diamonds, but they are definitely not perfectly round. The most common organ relics are:
The biggest feature of the gallbladder relics, stomach relics, diamond tongue, spleen relics, skin relics, and eye relics is that blood vessels can be seen on the surface of the organ relics. The physical relics refer to
The physical bodies of Master Jianzhen and Master Huineng in the past dynasties. Especially the bodies of Master Jianzhen and Master Huineng. In particular, the bodies of Master Jianzhen and Master Huineng were all treated with body salt and placed in Tashilunpo Temple. The bodies of Master Jianzhen and Master Huineng were not cremated, so they were excepted because they were not cremated.
Of the physical body relics, only heaven-dropped relics exist. There are no other real body relics. Spiritual bone relics, gemstone relics, and organ relics can only appear after being cremated, because they are also called fire offering relics."
Luo Tian pointed to the diamond flower in the box: "This relic flower is a gem relic, and its hardness is comparable to diamonds."
"Miss Liao, could I ask where your relic flower came from?"
"You just said that it's not just the enlightened monks who have relics and relic flowers, right?" Liao Chuqing's eyes flickered, taking this issue very seriously.
"Yes, some lay Buddhists or believers who eat fast and believe in Buddhism also have the opportunity to turn into relics." Luo Tian was surprised: "So, this relic flower of Miss Liao?"
"It was formed after my mother was cremated in the countryside."
"No wonder." Luo Tian said: "If the cremation is carried out in a funeral parlor, because the 82b grate type cremator is used during the cremation, there will be no relic flowers."
Liao Chuqing lovingly held the relic flowers left by her mother in her hands: "This wooden box was made by my father for my mother. Even the lotus flowers on it were carved by him himself. Although it is not the work of a famous artist, it is very important to my mother."
It is of great significance to me. My mother is a devout Buddhist and has always been self-disciplined. I never thought that she would turn into a relic flower after her death, which is really a great comfort."
Cheng Zhen was very touched. For Liao Chuqing, this relic is the most precious thing in the world, which cannot be sold for a thousand pieces of gold. Luo Tian said: "Being associated with Buddhism is a blessing. Miss Liao, today's palm eye fee,
If I don’t accept it anymore, I should just accumulate good karma for myself.”
"What you should get is what you have to get." Liao Chuqing said, took out the money from her wallet and put it on Luo Tian's desk. At this moment, Yuan Jie ran out from the workroom, sweating profusely, and said:
As he walked, he said: "It's so hot to death. This place is really strange. It's been several months and it's still so hot. I strongly request that the air conditioner be turned on!"
Yuan Jie's target was the drinking fountain, but he happened to bump into Liao Chuqing, who was holding his mother's relic flower. Luo Tian couldn't help but cover his eyes, unable to watch anymore. The wooden box in Liao Chuqing's hand fell to the ground, and the relic inside
The flower rolled out, but Yuan Jie, a fat man with poor eyesight, didn't know the origin of the strange "stones" on the ground, so he said rudely: "What is this?"
At this time, even Cheng Zhen made an unbearable sound and really wanted to shut Yuan Jie's mouth immediately. Liao Chuqing's eyes turned red and she stared at Yuan Jie hatefully. Yuan Jie was already sweating profusely, but now
The beads of sweat could no longer be stopped. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly picked up the "things" on the ground: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, miss..."
Yuan Jie felt flustered inexplicably. This beautiful woman was looking at him with eyes that could freeze the mountains. No, she was staring at him. Moreover, the corners of her eyes were red, as if she was about to cry. Yuan Jie put the relics back into the wooden box.
inside, and stuffed it into Liao Chuqing's hand: "Take this, please."
"Crazy!!" Liao Chuqing squeezed out these three words through her teeth, took the wooden box and left. Yuan Jie felt that he had been accused for no reason, and was a little unjust. He looked at Luo Tian innocently,
