When Monk Mingxin came to Yankang Kingdom, he saw that there were still clouds in the sky, and the impact of the snow disaster had not yet dissipated. The officers and soldiers were still busy with disaster relief, and the victims were still fleeing. However, there were many bandits going around, looting homes, and hungry people fleeing everywhere.
The people are in dire straits.
"Here is a fair and tender monk!"
Some hungry people saw him and said happily: "You can eat it without washing!"
Monk Mingxin ran away quickly. After all, those hungry people had been hungry for who knows how many days. If they couldn't catch up with him, they had to give up and said: "I told you not to make any noise. When he gets close, bite him. This white and tender monk will not be able to run away."
Already."
Monk Mingxin was frightened. He went hungry for two or three days and couldn't find anything to satisfy his hunger. However, he was hunted down by hungry people more than a dozen times.
There is peace and tranquility in Daleiyin Temple, but the outside world is so dangerous and famine is everywhere. There are no such things in the Buddhist scriptures. I guess I will only think about the things in the Buddhist scriptures when I have enough food and clothing.
The Heart Sutra he brought was useless and could not solve the problem of hunger.
This place is located in a remote area, and there are so many victims that the court is beyond the reach of the government. There are starvation deaths everywhere, and the corpses of people who died of starvation lie scattered on the roadside.
There are also some wild wolves and dogs that have turned into monsters by eating human corpses, and they form groups and prey on living people everywhere.
Dogs are originally tame, but in times of disaster, dogs also eat people, breed quickly, and are more ferocious than wolves!
"This is hell..." Monk Mingxin said in tears as he looked at the monsters and corpses everywhere.
"Monk, do you have children?"
A sallow-looking victim grabbed his clothes and held a child in his arms. His face was full of hunger: "Give me your child, and give my child to you. You eat my child, and I will eat your child..."
Monk Mingxin shouted, broke away from him and ran away hastily.
"Tathagata—"
Mingxin ran for an unknown number of miles, but couldn't run anymore. She knelt on the ground and shouted sadly: "You are in Daleiyin Temple, can't you see this world?"
He was confused and staggered forward. There was a temple in front of him. Mingxin broke into the temple and saw several people hanging on the temple beams. Their skins were peeled from head to foot. Several monks were squatting in the corner holding cups.
They were eating meat in an iron basin. When they saw him coming, the monks were surprised and said quickly: "Master, Master, there is a monk who has come to take care of himself!"
The old host hurriedly walked out and said: "Where did the monk come from? We don't have much food rations here, and even the land has been gnawed several times by the hungry people. Yuanding, give him a bowl of food and let him go. I, the Buddha, are merciful
.”
With a pot of human flesh placed in front of him, Monk Mingxin was stunned. Suddenly he felt that the Buddha in his mind had collapsed.
He jumped up, hammered the Buddha statue crazily, pushed it down, and smashed it to pieces. Other monks hurriedly stepped forward to stop it, and said angrily: "You are crazy monk, you are possessed by a demon! You are blaspheming the Buddha, deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestor!"
Monk Mingxin allowed them to beat him without fighting back, and was soon beaten to a bloody pulp. At this moment, a group of officers and soldiers came and chopped down several monks in the temple.
"These monks are eating people, they are lawless...General, there is another monk here who was beaten into a human shape. Hey, he is still alive!"
The officers and soldiers carried him over. The general took one look and said, "You can't die. Monk, I think you are capable. Why don't you fight back when others want to kill you?"
Monk Mingxin said numbly: "I have flaws all over my body..."
The general smiled and said: "It's good to have flaws all over the body. Who doesn't have a few flaws? A master is someone who knows that he has flaws. If you have some skills, come with me to protect the seedlings. These homeless people even chew turf.
Don't let them eat up all the food you just planted. Come on, burn this temple down!"
Officers and soldiers stepped forward to set fire, and soon the temple was in flames.
Monk Mingxin nodded, suddenly startled, and quickly ran towards the fire: "My scripture!"
The general ordered someone to grab him and said, "What scripture do you have? How thick is it?"
"Only two pages."
"It's so cold now that such a thin book of scriptures isn't even enough to be warmed by a fire."
The general raised a finger, with some compassion in his eyes: "As long as there is a harvest and the people in the world have something to eat and are no longer hungry, this world will be a human world, not a hell. Therefore, protecting seedlings is very important.
, we can’t be ruined by the refugees! Wait until the world is at peace, and then you can read your Buddhist scriptures. At that time, I will give you a basketful of Buddhist scriptures, and you can read whichever one you want!"
The monk Mingxin was stunned. Only when the world is at peace can he read the scriptures?
So how can this Buddhist scripture save suffering? How can it save all sentient beings?
It's useless when the world is in chaos. What's the use of waiting until the world is peaceful to save the suffering and save all sentient beings?
"Master Qin is right. The person who wrote the Buddhist scriptures is indeed not the Tathagata."
Monk Mingxin, wearing commoner clothes and sandals, and his white silk clothes already stained with blood, followed the officers and soldiers away: "From now on, I am my Tathagata, and I will write my Buddhist scriptures!"
Daleiyin Temple.
The bells were ringing loudly. Qin Mu looked to the west, where was the disaster-stricken ruins. He looked to the east, where Yankang was experiencing a snowstorm.
Daleiyin Temple is sandwiched between the two. It is a good place without suffering disasters or disasters. The monks on the mountain are carefree and concentrate on studying Buddhism and will not be troubled by disasters.
"Daleiyin Temple has more than four thousand temples. Tianlong Temple and Xinchan Temple are relatively high-level temples. Each temple is responsible for different things and has many different things to comprehend. If it is an outstanding disciple, it will be led by the elders.
The monk taught that there is no need to walk around in various courtyards."
Ma Ye said: "For example, the monk Mingxin was specially taught by the monk Jingming and led by the teacher to practice. He is basically the most outstanding person among the monks. And the one with the highest qualifications, understanding and Buddha nature was taught by the teacher.
The Tathagata himself teaches."
Qin Mu looked down and saw mountains like petals of a lotus, surrounding the main peak of the Golden Summit in the center, with thousands of temples and temples flourishing with incense.
"Da Leiyin Temple does have its strengths, and its teaching of disciples is similar to that of Imperial Master Yankang." Qin Mu nodded.
Master Ma took them to browse around and walked towards a magnificent pagoda. He said: "The first heaven in the All Heavens Courtyard is the King Yamara Courtyard, and the second heaven is the Saja Dragon King Courtyard, which represents the teachings of the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra.
Each state of mind. At the top, there are the Emperor Shik Heaven Courtyard and the Great Brahma Heaven Courtyard. If you count from top to bottom, the Great Brahma Heaven Courtyard is the first heaven."
Qin Mu looked up, and his heart was shocked. This pagoda was a bit too spectacular. It was really majestic and majestic!
They walked into the pagoda and came to the first courtyard of King Yama. There were several young monks who were practicing the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. An old monk hurriedly came forward and said: "God of the Horse King.
"
Mr. Ma said: "We want to take a look around here."
The old monk looked troubled and said: "This is the place where we practice the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra..."
Suddenly a voice said: "Brother, I told you that there is no shameful place in Daleiyin Temple, and they can go anywhere."
The old monk looked at him and said quickly: "Buddha."
A young monk came in, saluted Master Ma, and said, "Senior brother."
The monk bowed to Qin Mu again and said, "Master Qin."
Qin Mu returned the courtesy and said with a smile: "It turns out you are a disciple of Buddha's heart. I once met you outside Taiyuan University, but you have never seen me."
This monk's head is round and has the appearance of a treasure. His eyes are as bright as treasures, his earlobes are like water drops, and there is a red mark between his eyebrows. He is very extraordinary. He is the son of the Buddha with the heart of the Buddha.
Buddha Heart Buddha once followed the old monk Jingming to block the gate of the Taiyuan Academy. Qin Mu went over to take a look, but because the young patriarch did not give any benefits, Qin Mu also wanted to go to the Ma Qingniu, so he did not fight with him.
When Imperial Doctor You and his colleagues were rummaging through the Tai Academy, Si Yunxiang sneaked out and had a fight with him, which made the Buddhist disciples of Buddha Heart realize the difficulty and retreat.
Buddha Heart Buddha looked at Qin Mu, and saw that although the Demon Leader was polite and gentle, like a gentleman, his eyes were very aggressive. From time to time, a wild and unruly style burst out from his eyes, which was irritating.
Entering other people's hearts makes his heart skip a beat: "This person is so demonic!"
The Buddha's heart said to the old monk: "The Tathagata has said that there is no problem even if I show Master Qin the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. The Tathagata Mahayana Sutra of my Dareiyin Temple cannot be practiced without Buddha nature. What's more, Brother Ma also has a
If he wanted to pass on the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra to Master Qin, he could have passed it on long ago. The two donors, Brother Ma, please watch and learn."
The old monk relaxed his mind and explained to the young monks the mystery of the King Yama, the first heaven of the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. He did not have any scruples because Qin Mu and others were here.
After a while, Qin Mu realized something in his heart and urged the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra he had heard. He felt eight colds and eight heats in his body, as if he had fallen into hell and turned into King Yama.
Seeing the precious light suddenly appearing in his body, the Buddha's heart jumped slightly: "This is the Buddha's light! He is standing here, comprehending the first heaven of the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra? Does he have Buddha nature? Isn't he a demon?
?”
Mr. Ma also saw the sudden burst of Buddha light from his body and said: "Mu'er, you have already obtained the first level of the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. There is no need to listen to this level. Let's go to the next level."
Qin Mu followed the blind man Ma Ye to the Saoji Dragon King's Courtyard, and Buddha Heart Buddha followed him quickly. There were also old monks here preaching the various mysteries of the Saoji Dragon King's Heaven.
Not long after, the Buddha-hearted Buddha felt that the Buddha's light on Qin Mu's body became heavier again.
He was shocked. People with demonic nature cannot practice the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. Qin Mu is the leader of the demons, the devil among demons. He actually stood here and listened for a while before practicing the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra to the second level.
It’s so shocking!
You must know that the reason why Buddha Heart is called the Son of Buddha is because he has a heart as clear as a pure child. When he first came here, he also practiced the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra to the fourth heaven in a short period of time.
, shocked the Great Leiyin Temple, and was revered as the son of Buddha.
And I heard that the same is true for the Horse King God. Buddha's mind has heard the legend about him. It is said that the Horse King God cultivated to the fifth heaven in one go. Therefore, the old Tathagata had great expectations for him and cultivated him as the next generation of Tathagata.
"It is impossible for the devils of the Heavenly Demon Sect to have such deep Buddha nature as I do!" Buddha thought in his heart.
When he reached the third heaven, Qin Mu unknowingly understood the state of mind of the Emperor of the Moon Palace in the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra, and cultivated the Heaven of the Emperor of the Moon Palace. The Buddha's light appeared behind his head, and the precious moon was like a flower. And in the courtyard of the Emperor of the Moon Palace, he cultivated this heaven.
There are not many monks!
At the fourth heaven, Qin Mu once again understood the state of mind of the Sun Palace Emperor in the Tathagata Mahayana Sutra. Buddha light appeared behind his head and the sun was blazing, just like an eminent monk who had attained enlightenment!
