Nine hundred and seventieth chapters King Kong Hai mother
"The most common thing inside is the portrait of Vajra Haimu. This is nothing special, right?" Yuan Dunyi is indeed well-informed. He just casually glanced at the portraits in the wooden box and recognized the one painted on it.
What.
From a sketch that Yuan Dunyi randomly pulled out, it can be seen that this is a painting of a Buddha statue. The Buddha statue has a red body and a brown pig head on the right side of its head. This is an important sign to identify this Buddha statue.
Although they recognized it as Vajrayana at a glance, due to the randomness of these sketches, the entire true form of Vajrayana was not revealed on a piece of paper.
For example, on the one that fell into Ye Sheng's sight, the left hand of the Buddha statue is holding a kabala bowl filled with blood, which symbolizes that she has gained a blissful experience and has achieved success in her cultivation career. The left arm holds a kadranga, with a skull on the upper part.
The dry human head and the fresh human head symbolize that she has subdued the intrusion of greed, anger, and ignorance.
The right hand is raised, holding a yue knife, symbolizing the elimination of all ignorance in people and summoning the true nature of wisdom. The left leg is dancing and standing on one leg, trampling on human corpses, which means victory over external enemies. This is a standard statue of Vajra Haimu.
Vajra is the protector god in Buddhism and specializes in fighting. Therefore, don’t think that Buddhism is so gentle. If you don’t believe in Buddhism and become a demon, the Buddhist Vajra will let you know that they are more cruel and terrifying than demons. Therefore, protectors
The appearance of King Kong is often scarier than that of the Demon King of Hell, and more like a demon than a real demon.
"What does the appearance of the portrait of Vajra Haimu here mean?" Ye Sheng asked curiously.
Yuan Dunyi also looked at Han Peacock, and Han Peacock said: "Of course the portrait can't explain anything. Even if a thangka appears, it doesn't matter, but if a real body appears, can it explain anything?"
"Isn't it possible? How could the true form of King Kong Haimu appear here?" Yuan Dunyi said in disbelief.
Vajrayana, whose Tibetan name is Dorje Pam. She is a female deity. According to legend, she appears in India, Nepal, and the snowy plateau of Tibet in my country as the incarnation of body, speech, mind, and industry.
In the 8th century AD, the belief in Dorje Pam began to be spread to Tibet. When Master Padmasambhava came to Tibet to teach the Dharma, he recognized the Tibetan King Trisong Detsen and Princess Kachen Satsoje as the "speaker of Dorje Pam".
"The incarnation of.
This is the earliest incarnation of Dorje Pam, the female Buddha mother, and the wisdom dakini in the history of Tibetan Buddhism. She is also the first Tibetan woman to incarnate as "Vajra Haimu" in the snowy plateau.
In the 11th century AD, after Marpa, the founder of the Dabu Kagyu sect of the Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism, invited the "Dorje Pam Bay-leaf Sutra" from India, the practice of Dorje Pam Buddha spread in Tibet.
After the emergence of Buddhist temples dedicated to the worship of Vajrayana, they gradually spread throughout Tibetan areas and other places influenced by Tibetan Buddhism.
In the Kagyu Sect of Tibetan Buddhism, Vajrayana is the first female deity. Marpa, Milarepa, Gampopa and other great masters all rely on her as their deity.
In the Gelug Sect, she is the concubine of Chakrasamvara, one of the three deities. As for her image, in Tibetan Buddhist thangkas, she is depicted as a sixteen-year-old girl. She has two arms on one side and is red all over.
Guang, holding a vajra sword in his right hand, a blood-filled skull device in his left hand, and leaning on the heavenly staff on his left shoulder.
The three eyes are wide open, the waist is slim and graceful, wearing a five-skull crown and a bone necklace, the right foot is hanging in the air, the left foot is stepping on a human body on the lotus and sun disc seat, and there are Prajna flames behind it. This image seems incredible to ordinary people, but there is something hidden in it.
It contains profound Buddhist teachings and concepts.
According to the "Hermitage Tantra", an important classic of the Tantric Yoga Department of Tibetan Buddhism, when the Buddha Sakyamuni was teaching the fundamental tantra of Hermitage, twenty-four dakinis came to our country to enjoy the Tantra after listening to the tantra. , Suliang, Zhou Jinganghaimu Cave, held a ceremony and blessed this place.
Because of this special fate, later (it is said that it was the first year of Emperor Zhaozong's Tianyou reign in the Tang Dynasty, that is, the 25th day of the first lunar month in 904 AD), five Vajra Haimu were reborn in the mountain village of Maang in Liangzhou.
They are respectively "Buddha Mother", "Baby Mother", "Vajra Mother", "Red Flower Mother" and "Success Mother".
It is said that starting from the age of five, the five incarnations of Vajrayana will go to the red sandstone cave in Chuangshan to make offerings on the 25th day of each month of the lunar calendar. All the dakinis from the twenty-four places come to make offerings. .
The "History of Politics and Religion in Amdo" and other books record that at that time there was a girl who repeatedly bought heart, lung and viscera on credit from a local butcher named Zhang.
One day, in order to ask for money for the meat, the butcher secretly followed the girl to the red sandstone cave and saw five girls making sacrifices.
When the five girls noticed Butcher Zhang coming, they all flew into the air. Butcher Zhang hurriedly grabbed one of the girls' feet in order to get the meat money.
The girl that Butcher Zhang caught was Baby Mother, and her body stayed in mid-air in the red sandstone cave. The other girls flew away, and Butcher Zhang was freed instantly.
These strange records and legends have shrouded the Jinganghaimu Cave Temple in Liangzhou with a mysterious aura.
"You should have heard of the legend of Vajra Haimu. If that's the case, and with the help of God's eyes, it's not surprising that the real body of Vajra Haimu appears here, right?" Han Peacock smiled and took a look. The clay sculpture in the courtyard.
"Legends are legends after all. Are those legends true?" Ye Sheng said.
Yuan Dun said: "Before the tomb of Zhao Tuo was found, Emperor Xuan Palace was also a legend. What about now? Therefore, the legend of the five Vajra Sea Mothers cannot simply be regarded as a legend. However, I know the true form of one The relics should not be obtained by others." Yuan Dun said.
Fifteen kilometers south of the city of Ganzhou, Suwu, and Weiliang, Mount Crane is a loess-covered red sandstone hill fortress on the north side of the Qilian Mountains that stretches east and west like a giant dragon. The Qilian Snow Mountains in the south are even more majestic. It reflects her simplicity and ordinaryness.
However, due to the historical spread of Tibetan Buddhism in Liangzhou, especially the prevalence of Xixia Buddhism here, this hill has become a holy place for Vajrayogini, the deity of the Tantra of Supreme Yogami Tantra. The Holy Spirit is incomparable.
There is a place that was prophesied by Sakyamuni Buddha. It is a holy place connected with the twenty-four holy places of dakinis. It is also the place where the dakinis of the five directions appear in the world in response to fate.
There, the extremely precious body and bone relics of the "Precious Mother", recognized by the Buddhist world as one of the Vajrayana Mothers, are preserved.
There, there is a famous temple built by the Xixia Imperial Preceptor. There, countless pilgrims have accomplished their good deeds...
"This place is a good place, and it is also a Buddhist holy land, but people's greed can cover up everything." Han Kongque said with a smile.
The Tibetan Buddhist historical classic "The Political and Religious History of Amdo" states: "The mountain in the area around the Mao Mountain is shaped like the statue of Maitreya Buddha itself. It takes half a day to walk from head to toe. The head of the self-born statue faces west and east. The image is very clear when viewed from a distance. "
Yuan Dun said: "The Vajrayami Cave on the mountain and the well-known legend of Vajrayami's birth are particularly magical. Many eminent monks and practitioners yearn for it. Such a place is of course a good place."
Han Kongque said with a smile: "In the 1990s, a large number of precious Xixia cultural relics that shocked the world, such as "The Sutra Said by Vimalakirti" printed with Xixia clay movable type, were unearthed from the Vajra Haimu Cave in Maoshan Mountain, which made this mountain,
This cave and this temple have become a rare treasure trove for Xixia researchers at home and abroad. It is difficult to think clearly about a place like this."
Ye Sheng said: "A place like this must be a good place!"
Han Kongque looked at Yuan Dunyi and laughed. He turned to Ye Sheng and said, "Uncle Ye can go and have a look when you have time. You will be surprised when you go. When you get to the Vajra Haimu Temple, look at the various causes in front of you.
The dilapidated caves that collapsed due to major earthquakes in the past, the ruins of ancient palaces, and the old bricks and tiles scattered on the hillside, etc., seem to have a key, opening a series of rusty magical doors.
Dunhuang's flying legends of gods and Buddhas, the cloudy past of Xixia, the vicissitudes of caves and temples... In an instant, it is vivid in the eyes, faint in the ears, touching the heart and soul, even out of Liangzhou, behind the southern city gate, you can see it very far away
The newly built Five Directions Buddha Hall and the white Vajra Haimu Relic Pagoda above the Maoshan Haimu Cave are also awakening the mythical years of the past thousand years."
"Are you saying that the real Vajra Haimu Temple is a ruin?" Ye Sheng opened his mouth in surprise.
"Xiao Han is talking about the cave. Although the Vajrayami Cave collapsed, the local government still built the Five Directions Buddha Hall and the white Vajrayami Relic Pagoda. The precious relics of the precious mother just mentioned seem to be hidden there.
In the stupa of Vajrayami.”
Han Peacock nodded and said: "The legend is indeed like this, but the world is so strange, who can explain it clearly?"
Yuan Dundao said: "According to legend, before Tibet's great Living Buddha Manlonggeri came to pay homage to Vajra Haimu Cave in Liangzhou, twenty-seven Buddhist masters from India and Tibet had come here to practice in retreat.
The physical body flew to the Vajrayana Buddha Kingdom."
Han Kongque looked at Yuan Dunyi and said calmly: "After 1244 AD, King Kuoduan of Xiliang, on behalf of the Mongolian Khan, invited the Tibetan religious leader Sakya Pandita Gongga Gyaltsen to come to Liangzhou to conduct the famous Liangzhou
During the meeting, Sakya Pandita, his sister Zoba Rangmu, nephew Pasiba and others all came to Haimu Cave to hold worship services.
It is said that when they came to Vajrayana Cave Temple, the body of Vajrayami that used to be hanging in the air in the temple cave had fallen not far from the ground. Zorba Rangmu carefully mixed gold, silver, jewelry and many other treasures with nectar and ground it into it.
Wash the powder and apply it on Vajrayana's shrunken body.
At this time, a miracle happened. Vajrayana's muscles suddenly resurrected, her heart became warm, and her blood became as bright as a living person. Zorba Rangmu also rebuilt the temple at the Vajrayana Cave and personally sculpted the statue of Vajrayana.
After that, the sixth generation, Tsangyang Gyatso, also came to the Haimu Cave Temple in Liangzhou on his way to worship Mount Wutai. At that time, Vajra Haimu's body was only a skeleton, and Tsangyang Gyatso built an earthen pagoda in the cave with his own hands.
The relics of Vajra Haimu were placed in an earthen pagoda for worship, and the ashes of Butcher Zhang were also placed in another earthen pagoda.
There have been many fires here in history, but the relics of Vajrayana were still intact. Later, due to earthquakes, the cave collapsed and the earthen pagoda built by Tsangyang Gyatso was destroyed. However, the relics of Vajrayami were piously preserved.
It has been secretly kept by believers until now, and is now hidden in a newly cast silver pagoda and stored in the temple hall.
It is the distinguished pilgrims and local devout believers who have come from thousands of miles away, generation after generation, to protect the relics and temples of Vajra Haimu, and continue the sacred faith and the uninterrupted magical legend."
"These magical legends seem to have become feudal remnants in modern times." Ye Sheng said thoughtfully.
Yuan Dunyi was more direct: "You are saying that the reason why these legends became legends is because the baby mother's spiritual bones no longer have that magic?"
Han Kongque said with a smile: "We have never seen whether it is really that magical, but we have no reason to deny what we have never seen."
"You wouldn't say that this spiritual bone fell into your hands, would you?" Yuan Dunyi's eyes also fell on the clay sculpture in the yard.
Han Kongque said with a faint smile: "Who knows the real answer until the end?"
"I really don't believe that the spiritual bones have grown back into flesh and blood. Why don't you let us see it?" Yuan Dun said.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "Legends can sometimes be deceptive, such as worship. Now we think that ancient people made some messy tributes to worship various gods. That is completely feudal superstition and is ignorant.
But the reason why we think those tributes are messy and ridiculous is because we don’t know what role those tributes play. In my opinion, no matter what tribute they are, they seem to be providing nutrients to the gods, just like
When cultivating clones, the nutrient solution provided is the same."
"It seems that you believe that those legends are true?" Yuan Dun said.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Isn't this what you told me? I'd rather mistrust it than let it go. Maybe this spiritual bone is an opportunity for us."
"It's a bit weird to hear the flesh and blood grow back from the spiritual bones." Ye Sheng interjected.
Yuan Dun said: "It can't be any weirder than using a few cells to clone a real person."
Han Kongque said with a smile: "That's right. In fact, there are many things that we don't understand, that is to say, that cannot be explained by scientific methods, so we will choose not to believe it. But for some things, not believing it does not mean that it will not happen."
"You are under thirty years old by all means. Where did you know all these secrets?" Yuan Dunyi looked at Han Peacock and could only marvel in his eyes. This Han Peacock is too evil. He looks like me.
unknown.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "I have a special team under me to collect information about treasures. I think you all know it, right? In fact, I am not interested in some concepts of Buddhism, but prefer Taoism. However, not being interested is
It's the same thing, but I'm still very curious about reincarnation in Buddhism, so I learned a little bit about it.
As for Vajrayana, a Buddha that not many people know about in the mainland, I can only say that she came into my sight accidentally. I remember that I was reading a historical survey on Xixia. It was from that report that I understood
Got Vajrayana.”
"I just mentioned the cultural relics of Xixia, and I noticed that you are really here for the cultural relics of Xixia." Yuan Dun said. (To be continued...)
