There are one hill and eight buildings in the Northern Prefecture of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Chapter 4161 Good and evil will be rewarded in the next life.
Chapter 4161 Good and evil will be rewarded in the next life.
Yu Yue frowned: "You mean, both the ministers and the people in the Later Qin Dynasty believe that it was because Yao Xing ate fasting, chanted Buddha's name, worshiped Buddha and accumulated virtues that he was able to defeat Hu Xia? This is ridiculous. It's really that easy.
, why do you still need to send troops? Just send monks to chant sutras and you can destroy the enemy country and dominate the world."
The black robe smiled slightly: "Isn't it because the monks went to the grassland this time to bring the disease, and then cured the disease, so that Hu Xia did not dare to underestimate the power of the Buddha and did not dare to attack the Later Qin again. You
Look, the army was sent to attack and wounded, but the result was a total loss of troops and a complete defeat. But when the Buddhist disciples were sent there, they were defeated without fighting. With such experience and understanding, do you think the people of the Later Qin Dynasty would
Do you believe this?"
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "That's ridiculous! When Kumarajiva was serving as a national advisor in the Qiuci Kingdom, I didn't see him use any Buddha's power to repel the army sent by the former Qin Dynasty to destroy the country. Why not give it to him?
Is this called "Yenying" actually forcibly kidnapped to Guanzhong? Where is the light of the Buddha and the power of the Thousand Buddhas at this time?"
The black robe laughed: "This is because the Kingdom of Qiuci wants to repay its karma. At that time, Kumarajiva's mother was devoted to Buddhism and even abandoned her husband and son to escape into Buddhism. Not only did she become a Buddhist herself, but she also gave her son
Buddhism was also brought in. Although we sincerely worship the Buddha, it goes against human ethics and is a sin. In addition, worshiping the Buddha in Qiuci is too grand. There are many Buddhist temples. About half of the country's population are monks and nuns. They do not engage in production. This is also against the Buddha.
The original intention of hoping to work and practice for the rest of his life, so the entire Qiuci received retribution and was destroyed by others."
"As for after the destruction of the country, Lu Guang, the former Qin general at that time and later the leader of Houliang Kingdom, also dismissed Buddhism. In order to humiliate Kumarajiva, he forced him to return to secular life and married him a woman. As a result,
After this, Liang suffered retribution very quickly, and the kingdom was destroyed in just over ten years. Didn't these things further deepen Kumarajiva's prestige and the power of the Buddha in the hearts of the people all over the world?"
Yu Yue curled up his lips: "I really don't know much about these things. After all, in our opinion, a monk cannot affect the general trend of the world. But listening to what you said, the endless battles over the past few decades have led to the destruction of the country and the rejuvenation of the country.
, and there is such a subtle relationship. According to your statement, Hu Xia's Helian Bobo was so cruel and vicious that he killed tens of thousands of prisoners of war at every turn, and piled the heads of enemy soldiers and soldiers into a skeleton platform in Beijing, which is frightening to people.
, he is simply a human devil even more cruel than the Celestial Master, how come he has not received retribution? Is it because he has been a beast of flowers and plants for hundreds of lives in his previous life?"
The black robe smiled slightly: "Because the entire Helian Bobo clan was killed by Tuoba Si, and more than five thousand clan members were thrown into the Yellow River to feed the fish, and only he, the only one, escaped, so this karma is
The death of his relatives gave him the opportunity to commit evil. Maybe the people he killed were the soldiers and generals who killed his people in his previous life. He became a human again in this life, so he just killed them to eliminate his karma."
"As for Tuoba Si, he also committed many evil deeds and was not satisfied with his retribution in the end. He died in the hands of his own son. Isn't it the will of God and the power of Buddha? Therefore, among the northern Hu people, they have no doubt about the retribution of this cycle of good and evil. Why does Buddhism
Is it so popular among the Hu people? It’s because almost all the Hu people have been engaged in war, and almost all of them have blood on their hands. If they don’t use Buddhism to comfort their souls, they will not be able to escape the fear of death in this life.
nightmare."
The muscles on Yu Yue's face twitched slightly, and he sighed: "You are right, don't talk about barbarians, even I have been forced by Liu Yu to join the army in recent years.
, seeing so many battlefields with rivers of blood and corpses strewn everywhere, seeing those corpses with missing limbs and disembowelment, I don’t know how many times I couldn’t sleep at night, or dreamed that I was killed by these dead people.
, to return their lives. The reason why I have taken Wushi Powder more and more frequently in the past few years, so that I have to come here to ask you for Wushi Powder this time, is also because only by relying on this thing can I sleep peacefully.
, I no longer rely on it to sleep with women!”
The black robe nodded: "This is an unavoidable weakness in human nature. There is kindness and sympathy in human nature. For things like cannibalism and killing, there is some guilt deep in the heart. This is what Buddhism calls
Even the most ferocious Hu people will be afraid of and regret these killings. Even Yao Chang, who was like the devil back then, would still dream in his sleep that Fu Jian would seek his life. This is a typical example.
Evil deeds, guilt in the heart, and then fear, this kind of fear and fear, even if you deliberately hide it in front of others, you still can't deceive yourself, and will appear in your dreams."
Yu Yue nodded: "When you said this, I gradually understood why those barbarians believed in Buddhism. In fact, they knew that they had committed murders and arson, and their sins were serious. Deep down in their hearts, they couldn't bear it, so they needed some spiritual comfort.
Ah, Buddhism will tell them to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately. As long as they no longer fight and kill, but pay respect to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, they can eliminate their sins and the next life will not be too miserable."
Heipao smiled and said: "No, you are only partly right. In fact, more Hu people are not as comfortable as you imagined. Just like the ordinary Hu people in Nanyan you saw this time, they are not as comfortable as you think.
They are not as good as the villagers in your manor. They have to be drafted to fight in wartime, and they have to do taxes and corvee in peacetime. The reason why they want to fight is because only plundering after winning the battle can make their lives better and make them happy.
The family survives. It is the tribesmen and leaders who live well, not ordinary tribesmen, let alone slaves. Most Hu people believe in Buddhism not for the sake of good rewards in this life, but for the sake of life.
I believe that the hardships and sins I endure in this life are blessings for my next life. If I don’t live by this hope, I’m afraid many people will commit suicide.”
Yu Yue curled up his lips: "Is this what you mean when you say all living beings are equal and give people hope? You use that illusory afterlife, reincarnation, hell and heaven to force people to believe that they have done evil things in this life, and they can only do it through belief in Buddhism.
Make up for it, so that the next life will be easier. The sufferings you suffer in this life are the sins you committed in your previous life. You have to pay for it in this life, so that you can live a good life in the next life. No matter what, it is for people to accept it and don't try to resist.
No wonder these barbarian kings vigorously promote Buddhism."
