Chapter 2680

He also told us that there are five ways to worship Buddha - color, fragrance, taste, sound and touch.

Color is not color, but refers to things with color. For example, offering flowers to Buddha is a very thoughtful thing. Fake flowers or real flowers can be used, a bouquet or a single flower is good, as are chrysanthemums and carnations. What is important is what is in the heart.

Thinking. This reminds me of the allusion of "holding flowers and smiling". I have no intention of being a person, but now I have the opportunity to listen to the explanation of an expert. I am really lucky.

Incense refers to the incense burned when worshiping Buddha, but the "incense" itself does not distinguish between high and low or different types. The more expensive it is, the more sincere it is. It does not mean that the incense is for children, or it is for children. There is no such thing as the first incense stick.

It is said that it is more effective than the incense burned later. When talking about this, he mentioned a senior monk in the palace. Whenever someone with a higher position asked him to help burn the first incense stick, he first said

: Let go of your thoughts first. "Let go" is a very special term in Buddhism. We ordinary people have many troubles precisely because we cannot let go. However, considering our secular roots, we still cannot leave this secular world for the time being.

Taste refers to the food offered to the Buddha. Nowadays, whether it is fruits or snacks, all can be offered to the Buddha. Moreover, there is no such thing as offering offerings on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month. In the eyes of the Buddha, since all living beings are equal, of course

There is no such thing as a good day or a good time. Every day is the same.

Sound refers to sound. If you go to a temple and don’t have the above-mentioned offerings, then it’s okay to use sounds to pray. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to recite sutras. As long as you know “Namo Amitabha”, reciting it silently is worshiping the Buddha.

.

Since touch refers to the clothes on the Buddha's body, if you are willing, you can prepare clothes specially made for the Buddha that fit the size. If you don't have the size, you can buy a piece of cloth and sew two straps to put it on the Buddha as a cloak.

He also told us that as long as you do one of the above five ways of worship, you are actually a thoughtful person. No matter what day or hour you come, or which incense stick you burn, it will all be the same in the eyes of the Buddha.

.All things are equal.

Today's monasteries are very different from those in the past. The monks' residences all have TVs and computers with Internet access. The lamas in the Lama Temple believe in Tibetan Buddhism, and one of its regulations is that there is no

Marriage is allowed, so the monks in the palace are very mobile. I think it is understandable. Scholars say that this kind of mobility is actually beneficial from a certain perspective. The lamas who came to Yonghe Temple were basically

Coming from Tibetan areas, they have little culture and little wisdom. During the years of practice, they learned many scriptures, including medicine, astronomy, and geography. When they returned home, they also learned a lot of scriptures.

It is not necessarily a good thing to bring this culture back to their hometowns, and the lamas who can withstand it will continue to stay in the palace to study until their levels continue to rise, and eventually become a generation of eminent monks.

I thought to myself that the meanings of Buddhist sutras are really not as narrow as our understanding. They are all-encompassing and teach people to be good. For those who have a heart, a connection with Buddhism, and time, learning it will definitely be of great benefit.

It was already noon when I came out of Yonghe Temple. Director Wu sighed and said to me: "Today was really fruitful. The words of that expert made me realize a lot of things. Now I understand that what we know

Everything about Buddhism is only superficial."

I smiled and said, "Yeah. In fact, sometimes I think that maybe other aspects of what we know are also incomplete or even wrong. However, there are many things that we cannot take seriously at all, or take them too seriously.

It will be very painful.”

He laughed immediately, "It makes sense. Xiao Feng, do you know what is the most painful thing for me now?"

I looked at him in shock, "What happened?"

He smiled and said to me: "I'm so hungry that my stomach hurts, and I want to eat! I didn't eat this morning, and I had no appetite when I got up. This trip was worth it, I'm completely awake after drinking, and I have an appetite again."

I smiled and said, "Let's go eat hotpot mutton, drink some wine, have a good sleep in the afternoon, and then go pick up Governor Wang and the others together in the evening."

He was immediately overjoyed and said, "Okay!"

Soon, we found a mutton-shabu restaurant, a time-honored restaurant in Beijing. After sitting down, we ordered a bottle of white wine and chatted while eating and drinking.

In the meantime, I asked him something, "Director Wu, why don't you think Peter goes directly to the Minister of Health? With his influence in the pharmaceutical industry in the world, there shouldn't be any problem if he wants to see the Minister, right?"

He smiled and said: "This foreigner is very shrewd. He knows that things in our country are very complicated. It is best not to mention some things in the past. Their business in China was not big at that time, and there was no need to worry about the small things at that time.

Don't worry about it. But he must be considering the future development of the company, so he doesn't want to offend the deputy minister on this matter. Therefore, it is best for him to entrust us to come forward in this matter, in case it happens.

If there are any conflicts, we can resolve them for him. And my analysis is that he will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to visit the deputy minister in China to alleviate all the conflicts that should be resolved. A world-class businessman,

Their political sense is more sensitive than yours and mine."

I deeply agree and can’t help but admire him very much.

We both drank heavily at noon and had a good sleep after returning to the Liaison Office in Beijing. We did not have dinner because the Liaison Office in Beijing considered the possibility that Governor Wang might not have time to have dinner in Jiangnan, and specially arranged for Governor Wang to have dinner in Jiangnan.

The chief prepared a supper.

In fact, it's not really a late-night snack, to be precise, it's a delayed dinner.

About half an hour after arriving at the airport, we welcomed Governor Wang and his party. When I saw Governor Wang, I was secretly surprised and nervous because I found his face a bit ugly.

I have been in the officialdom for many years, and I have long been accustomed to paying attention to the details of the leader's emotional changes at any time. What's more, Governor Wang in my eyes at this moment obviously has a dark face.

The Director of the Beijing Office, myself, Director Wu and Su Wen went to greet Governor Wang. The Director of the Beijing Office first went to Governor Wang and said to him with a flattering face: "Thank you for your hard work, leader. I

You don't look well, do you have a stomachache?"

Governor Wang glanced at him and said, "My stomach is very good. I'm still hungry."

The director of the Beijing Office said hurriedly: "We haven't eaten yet. Dinner has already been prepared and will be served when we arrive."

At this time, Governor Wang came to see me and Director Wu, "You haven't eaten yet?"

I also hurriedly said: "I think you and the leaders haven't eaten yet, so we want to eat with the leaders."

He stretched out his hand towards me, and I hurriedly went to shake it. He said, "Thank you for your hard work." Then he went to shake hands with Director Wu and Su Wen. (To be continued)
