Light a wisp of incense and burn the Nine-Sky Smoke; recite a Buddhist message and spread the Dharma and the Great Brahma.
Who is it? Sweeping away the fallen leaves; Who is it? Sweeping away the dust in the heart.
Search your heart and ask, Buddha? Where is the Buddha? In a temple? In the world? Under your feet? Or in your heart?
Don’t know, don’t understand, don’t stop.
"Shua...shua..."
On the quiet road, there is the sound of cleaning.
The bhikkhu with short hair swept away a lot of dust while practicing cultivation. The wind blows and leaves fall, seemingly endlessly. The bhikkhu sweeps along the road and steps without any hurry or slowness.
A novice monk came and said, "Brother Hui, are you leaving today?"
Hui smiled and said: "I came here to find the Buddha, but I heard the Buddha's voice and saw the Buddha's traces, but not the Buddha."
"We are a holy land for Buddhism. There is no Buddha here, so where can we find one?"
"I don't know, I'm looking for it."
"I'll sweep with you, maybe as you sweep, you'll see the Buddha, haha."
"Ha, I think you are lazy and don't want to think about or recite the Buddha. Just sweep over there."
Going up one step at a time, to the top, you can see the Buddha bell hanging in the air, emitting the simple Buddha essence. Listen carefully, and you can faintly hear the murmur of the Buddha's voice; look closely, you can faintly see the empty appearance of the Buddha.
Hui knocked on the Buddha's bell, and every sound was a Sanskrit sound, and every sound was a wisdom. I heard him say: "Bodhi gives birth to Buddha, and the predestined Dharma Tathagata comes."
When a novice listens to the sound of bells and hears the Buddha's words, he may gain something but not understand it.
Venerable Aga came up, recited Amitabha, and waited quietly until the bell stopped. The novice monks saw him and bowed slightly. He said: "Hui, half a month in Lingyin Temple, can I get something? Can I have enlightenment?" p>
Hui replied: "Recite the Buddha's sutra, observe the precepts and practice. Cultivate a normal mind and pray for the wishes of all living beings."
After hearing the words, Venerable Aga was silent for a moment and said: "In the past, my teacher Sakyamuni held up flowers and smiled. I saw the Buddha for the first time, and then I realized that the Buddha is a Buddha and I am me. I want to become a Buddha, but thousands of demonic obstacles arise. I ask
How did Sakyamuni become a Buddha? Sakyamuni smiled and said nothing."
"How to become a Buddha?"
Venerable Ajia shook his head. A Buddha trapped in karma can no longer see clearly the path to becoming a Buddha. He then said: "Are you willing to be my disciple and call me master?"
Hui hesitated for a moment and bowed: "Master."
"Okay, haha. I have half of the Buddhist scriptures of the three generations, which I have passed down to you now. Read them carefully so that you can understand the past, present, and future. I also have a method of saving lives and slaying sins to help you walk in the world and become a Buddha to save the common people. Go,
Go your way."
"Thank you Master for your gift, please."
I accepted them one by one, thanked them again, left Lingyin Temple, and walked around at will. Seeing the war, peace, the appearance of all living beings, and the suffering of the world, I gradually gained enlightenment and settled in my heart.
Three years later, either due to fate or guidance, he came to the boundary of Xihuang, the ashram of Venerable Aku. Hui entered the dilapidated mountain gate, met a monk, and studied the Buddhist scriptures.
The monk lit a lamp to illuminate the vast world and said with a smile: "Buddhist friends came from the east and it was so cold that the temple was covered, so I was neglectful."
Hui said: "As long as you maintain a normal mind and don't care about internal and external appearances, Buddhist friends are polite. I have many Buddhist scrolls in the temple. Can you allow me to understand them?"
"No problem, please."
"Thank you."
……
Lingyin Temple.
Seeing Hui leaving, Venerable Ajia said: "Yu, Ban Yue, will you gain anything by following Hui?"
The little novice monk Yu twisted his head and said: "Sweeping the floor and chanting sutras, meditating and ringing bells, there is no difference."
"Different people will have different results and perceptions when doing the same thing. Hui has great wisdom, great understanding, great opportunities, great perseverance, and should have a great future. You have wisdom and you will understand it in the future. Go ahead."<
/p>
"Yes."
The little novice dragged his broom down the steps.
Venerable Ajia rang the bell, and every time it sounded, there was a flash of light, and every time it sounded, he heard him say: "The Tathagata becomes a Buddha and is reborn in bliss. This is my path to becoming a Buddha..."
Another day, a monk suddenly came to report and said: "Honorable Sir, Zen Master Mingjue came here injured, and Confucian scholar Hua from the Confucian sect came with his disciples to worship at the temple. They are all in the Great Guangming Hall."
"Well... Dai Confucian Zihua!"
Venerable Ajia came to the Great Guangming Hall, and Zen Master Mingjue paid homage: "Venerable Sir, the Great Sun Tathagata has destroyed our Guangjue Chanlin Temple and many Buddhist temples. The Buddhist world is in turmoil. Please come forward and calm down the Buddha's calamity. Learn more.
Say..."
Zen Master Mingjue comes one by one.
Venerable Ajia said: "I already know, but I don't know why the Confucian sect came here today?"
Zihua said: "The catastrophe of Buddhism has affected my Confucian disciples, so I came here to ask for an explanation."
"Hmm...where is the unknown saint Confucian?"
"After the meeting at the Summit of the Gods, on the way back, my senior brother was attacked by strong men and his whereabouts are unknown. We are currently looking for him."
Venerable Ajia pondered after hearing this. He anticipated the catastrophe of Buddhism and originally wanted to borrow the power of saints and Confucians, but now...
He sighed: "Sages and Confucians have always had strategies for the city, how could this happen? Alas, the current difficult situation is constantly plagued by disasters. Mr. Zihua, I am sorry for implicating the Confucian sect due to the fault of the Buddhist sect."
Zihua said: "There is always a wrongdoer and a debtor. There is no need for you to apologize. Punishing the culprit is the first priority. I wonder who the origin of the Dharma of the Great Sun Tathagata is?"
Venerable Ajia remained silent for a long time, recited the name of the Buddha, and then said:
"In the past, my teacher Sakyamuni was preaching Dharma in the South China Sea, and young monks came to listen. The roots of Buddhism were deeply rooted. Sakyamuni was overjoyed, and he took him to his side and became a famous disciple.
Another seven years later, the young monk, who had a strong sense of Buddha nature, questioned Sakyamuni's Dharma, saying that his Dharma was vague and could be touched like floating clouds. Then he left and opened up a line of Jiajia Mountain in the South China Sea, claiming to be the Buddha of the Three Generations and the Hidden World Wishful Being. p>
The Buddha's demon karma was born in blood. I secretly investigated and found that it should be related to him."
Just when everyone was secretly shocked when they heard the secret, they suddenly saw blood red all over the sea of clouds, the light of the Buddha coming from the west, the sound of Sanskrit resounding throughout the world, the Great Sun Tathagata coming to the world, and Bodhisattvas and Arhats soaring behind the clouds.
The overwhelming power shocked everyone present.
The Tathagata is stained with blood, and the heaven and the earth are creating massacres. He can be heard saying: "The Tathagata in the Western Heavens is here in the paradise land of Namo, and you still don't kneel down and worship!"
Immediately, I saw the Tathagata pinching the Buddha's fingers, and the bloody Buddha's light descended, falling straight into Lingyin Temple, wanting to overcome all lives and countless resentments.
Start with amplified moves.
Venerable Ajia opened his eyes slightly, closed his hands, and moved his true energy rapidly, reappearing the strength of the Buddhist venerable, and shouted: "Tathagata Dharma: Buddha's light first appears."
Suddenly, I saw another image of the Tathagata, shining brightly in the world, with golden light, appearing behind the Venerable Aga, sitting cross-legged and smiling, with his tongue shining like a lotus. This is exactly: the Tathagata has first enlightened to the Dharma, and the light of the Buddha has first appeared in the world.

In an instant, one is righteous and the other is evil, facing each other across the sky. The Tathagata Buddha's light battles with the blood-colored Buddha's light, intersecting and colliding with each other. It is a competition of the meaning of their respective Buddhist scriptures and a competition of their respective cultivation realms.
Although the blood-colored Buddha's light was slightly inferior, for a while, it was difficult to distinguish between superior and inferior.
Seeing this, Venerable Ajia pinched his fingers and made a false move.
A moment.
"When..."
Suddenly I heard the clear ringing of the Buddha bell, and the purifying Sanskrit sound was swayed. It dispersed with the sound waves, and met the blood-colored Buddha's light, which purified the blood. When I encountered the blood-colored Tathagata's Dharma form, the blood in the Dharma's eyes receded, and my consciousness became clear for a moment. However, in an instant, blood rushed into my eyes again.
Towering and terrifying.
After the blood light was purified, the Bloody Tathagata was suddenly defeated. He was invaded by the Buddha's light, and the Dharma was severely injured. The pieces were cracked and broken, and finally his true body was revealed.
In the bloody sky, a figure gradually emerged and became clearer.
The blood-red cassock is trimmed with black edges; the slender fingers fiddle with the round beads; the covering cassock covers the sharp eyes.
I saw him smiling, gentle, peaceful, and deeply rooted in... people's hearts.
Landing in the sky, I heard him read:
"The first wish is to hide in the world without hatred, the second wish is to spread the world without conquering, the third wish is to save the world without suffering from illness, and the third wish is to help the Buddha and purify the world."
While meditating, stand on the eaves of the house, the Buddha beads turn bright, and recite:
"Namo is extremely happy, and all Buddhas are good."
Hidden World Wishful Ru, Hidden World Wishful Ru, opened up the Jiajia Mountains in the South China Sea, ranked first among the three Buddhas, Guangshi Hongru, and saved the world. The Third World Buddha Zheng·Hidden World Wishful Ru, finally appeared in front of the world.
The Bodhisattvas and Arhats under his command all worshiped together: "The Buddha of the third generation is righteous, the Buddha of the third generation is righteous..."
Venerable Ajia came forward and sighed: "It's really you, you little worm. It's a pity that we parted ways a few decades ago, and now we're in this state again. The sea of Buddha is boundless, I hope you can turn back and find the shore."
Hidden World Wishfulam said with a smile: "I stand in the middle of the sea of Buddhas. If you go forward and turn back, you will reach the shore. Your venerable sir, Lingyin Temple will be destroyed today. I will give you a way to survive. Take my disciples and go down the mountain."
"Buddhism's holy land, Sakyamuni's Taoist temple, how can I honor you for being so arrogant. Where I am, you are not enough, but it only adds to the joke."
"Ha, earthworms are shaking Buddhism, but who dares to laugh now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a miserable howl, and blood was sprinkled on the holy place of Buddhism.
Venerable Ajia turned around and slapped Zen Master Mingjue away with his palm. Zen Master vomited blood, moved his body quickly, and made a vow to live in seclusion.
A palm print was placed on the back of the heart. Even though he was protected by Sakyamuni Buddhism, Venerable Aga still felt that all his internal organs were injured, his breath was temporarily weak, and his expression was in disbelief.
"Zen Master, you..."
A sudden change occurred. Zen Master Mingjue unexpectedly attacked Venerable Ajia secretly. He succeeded with one blow and was instantly injured.
The monks of Lingyin Temple rushed forward to protect the Venerable Ajia and shouted: "Protect the Venerable."
"Confucianism came together with Mingjue."
"Beware of Confucianism."
For a time, the Venerable Ajia, the Confucian Zihua, retreated from the world and wished to be like this. The three parties were separated and each was on guard. The atmosphere suddenly changed.
The contemporary Confucian Zihua was surprised and said in astonishment: "My friend, you have betrayed your original intention of seeking Buddha. You are confused."
Zen Master Mingjue sighed and said: "I have practiced Zen for most of my life, but I have not reached the level of Sakyamuni's words to determine the Buddha's position and determine the future Buddha of Sumeru, ranking above all of us. I have injustices in my heart, resentment in my heart, and I am trapped in
I can't break free from the demonic obstacle. I dare to ask the venerable sir, what should I do?"
Venerable Ajia was silent for a long time and then said: "Greed, anger, ignorance, resentment and hatred, love and separation are all practices."
"Practice? It's all practice? Hahaha... It turns out that you, Venerable, have also suffered from the pain of not getting what you want, hahaha."
You can't ask for it, you can't ask for it, you can't get it after searching hard! Venerable Aga was speechless, and the mind of the Buddha of Destruction and Destruction, which he had cultivated by observing the number of Buddhas, couldn't help but tremble.
At this moment, the wish to hide in the world was like pinching the Buddha's finger, and the bloody Buddha's light enveloped the entire Lingyin Temple, saying: "Save your words, I am impatient. Today, Lingyin Temple is destroyed, and the monks are in bliss. As for you and others
Confucianism, I can open up a wide margin."
The Confucian scholar Hua Qing threw his virtue sword to the ground, and one man stood guard and said: "The three religions are connected with each other, how can they allow evil spirits to take over? Today, Confucianism protects Buddhism, and the virtue sword - kills evildoers."
All the scholars under his command stepped forward and secretly transported their true energy to fight.
"Survival is not easy, and it's sad. Let's climb to bliss together and fall together."
There is no need to say anything at this point. As if he wished to remain hidden in this world, the Confucian scholar Hua glanced at him in the air, his body was like lightning, and he made a majestic palm.
"Bang..."
……
At the same time, there were several forces outside Lingyin Temple watching the battle, each with their own thoughts.
At this time, auspicious signs appeared in the sea of clouds, white lotuses emerged from the clouds, and a pure holy figure appeared in the clouds. I heard him chant:
"It is difficult to calm down the chaos of the world, but the lotus flowers are united, expressing their elegance and singing together.
It is difficult to walk on the road filled with demonic atmosphere. The three teachings and one palm can sweep away the pure and great concentration."
After the sound was settled, the person landed on the top of a peak. He waved his fly whisk again and the sound spread in all directions. He said with a smile:
"Ha, the bad guys are polite, I would like to ask all fellow Taoists who are watching the battle here, are you trying to catch the cicada with a mantis?"
