Chapter 1645 Bodhi is not a tree, and a mirror is not a stage
"Amitabha!"
When the sound of Buddha comes, it is like the sound of bells coming from the ancient times, ancient times, and ancient times. After countless years, it is solemn, solemn, sacred and vast.
"Old monk, it's really you!"
Hearing this Buddha's voice, Gu Qingfeng was filled with excitement. This voice was familiar to him. It was none other than the old monk who previously lived on the Silent Death Mountain in the Silent Death Bone Jade World.
"Guji, please come and be well."
"It's all right."
Although Gu Qingfeng has never seen the old monk living in the Nirvana Bone Jade, not even once, but in the past when he was bored, he would go to the old monk to chat and talk about his heart. This journey is all thanks to the old monk
Companionship makes the lonely Gu Qingfeng feel less lonely.
After sleeping for ten thousand years, after waking up, the Nirvana Bone Jade disappeared and the existence of the old monk could not be noticed. Gu Qingfeng still missed him quite a bit. At this moment, he saw the old monk again in the nightmare of original sin. Gu Qingfeng was naturally in a very happy mood and asked
: "What about you? Are you okay?"
"Thank you so much, ancient layman, everything is well with me."
"Just be safe...just be safe!"
Gu Qingfeng was relieved to know that the old monk was all well. If the old monk really disappeared, there would be no one to chat with to relieve his boredom on the road from now on, so he might be lonely and lonely.
"But, old monk, where are you now?"
"I am still on Mount Nirvana."
"Why did I come to Mount Nirvana in the Nightmare of Original Sin?"
"Mountain of Nirvana originally belonged to the age of innocence. It is not surprising that the ancient laymen came to Mount Nirvana in the nightmare of original sin."
"That's true."
Gu Qingfeng nodded. He knew that the old monk was from the Wudao era, and he was also a person who survived the Wudao era. Not only that, he also knew that the Nirvana Bone Jade also belonged to the Wudao era, and the Nirvana Mountain within it was naturally
It also belongs to the age of innocence.
From this point of view, it is indeed not unusual for the Nightmare of Original Sin to come to Mount Nirvana.
The only thing that Gu Qingfeng couldn't figure out was, where did the Nirvana Bone Jade go?
After questioning, the old monk said: "The ancient layman has long been integrated with the Nirvana Bone Jade, and now I'm afraid they are indistinguishable from each other."
"What do you mean, the Nirvana Bone Jade has completely integrated into my body?"
"Yes."
"But why can't I feel it?"
"It's just that I can't feel it for the time being. As the physical body of the ancient layman gradually recovers, I believe I will be able to feel it soon."
"Old monk is worthy of being an old monk. You still know me so well. When there was the Nirvana Bone Jade in the past, you knew me well. Now that the Nirvana Bone Jade has completely integrated into my body, don't you know me well?"
Do you know more about the situation?"
"Don't misunderstand, ancient layman. Although the Nirvana Bone Jade has merged into your body and is indistinguishable from each other, I only temporarily live in this Nirvana Bone Jade. The ancient layman is the owner of this Nirvana Bone Jade."
"Yeah..."
Gu Qingfeng smiled and said: "I have heard you say before that you are the guest of the Nirvana Bone Jade, and I am the owner of the Nirvana Bone Jade. How many years have passed, and the world inside the Nirvana Bone Jade
, I know nothing about either Mount Nirvana or you who live on Mount Nirvana, but you, the guest, know more than me, the master."
After a pause, he continued: "You see, we haven't seen each other for so many years, and not long after I woke up, you knew that my body had decayed. Not only did you know about the decay, but you also knew that it was recovering. This is not what a guest should know.
It’s a matter of fact.”
"The ancient layman has merged with the Nirvana Bone Jade and is indistinguishable from each other. Lao Na can deduce the changes in the layman's body based on the changes in the Nirvana world."
"So that's the case, it makes sense."
Gu Qingfeng thought about it carefully. If the Nirvana Bone Jade really integrated into his own body and was indistinguishable from each other, then the old monk living inside could indeed deduce his own physical body based on the changes in the Nirvana Bone Jade. This thing
It should be like the weather in nature, you can tell whether it is cloudy or sunny at a glance.
"Old monk, there is a question that I have always wanted to ask you."
"Please speak, ancient layman."
"Every time I am reborn from Nirvana, what happens inside the Nirvana Bone Jade?"
"Since the Nirvana Bone Jade has been integrated with the ancient layman, it will naturally change with the changes of the ancient layman."
"That is to say, if I am destroyed, the Nirvana Bone Jade will also be destroyed. If I am reborn, the Nirvana Bone Jade will also be reborn. Is that right?"
"Yes."
"Then I have been sleeping for ten thousand years this time, and the Nirvana Bone Jade has also been sleeping for ten thousand years?"
"Yes."
"What about you?"
"Lao Na is no exception."
"What's the matter? Could it be that I have been sleeping for ten thousand years and you have also been sleeping for ten thousand years?"
"Not only Lao Na, but everything in the Nirvana Bone Jade will follow the ancient layman through life and death, and be reborn in Nirvana. If not, how could this Nirvana Bone Jade be called Nirvana Bone Jade, and how could the Nirvana Mountain be called Nirvana Bone Jade?"
Mount Nirvana.”
"This is the first time I've heard about this, so it's rare." Gu Qingfeng looked at the misty Mingming Mountain. The more he looked at it, the more nihilistic and misty he looked. It was impossible to tell what was true and what was false, so he asked: "Why?
I have never been able to see this Mountain of Nirvana clearly."
"When the ancient lay people gain complete enlightenment, they will be able to see through this mountain of silence."
"How to fully understand?"
The old monk said: "The body is like a Bodhi tree, and the mind is like a mirror. I must brush it diligently at all times to prevent it from causing dust."
Gu Qingfeng thought for a while and responded: "Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so how can it cause dust."
The old monk's meaning is very simple.
He said that Gu Qingfeng's body was like a bodhi tree of enlightenment, and his soul was like a bright mirror. It had to be brushed and wiped constantly so that it would not be polluted by dirt and obscure its true nature.
Gu Qingfeng's answer is also very simple. There is no tree in the bodhi tree, and the bright mirror is not a stand. It is nothingness in the first place, so how can it be contaminated with dust.
The old monk was saying that Gu Qingfeng had some things in his heart that he couldn't let go of.
Gu Qingfeng replied that he was alone and there was nothing he couldn't let go of.
"I have realized the great peace, the great freedom, the great compassion, the great delusion. I have transcended the great road, transcended life and death, transcended the secular world, and transcended all sentient beings. Why is it that today, my heart is becoming more and more unclear, my eyes are becoming more and more impure, and I have become more enlightened.
If you can’t let it go, the fetters will become more and more numerous.”
The old monk's voice was very calm and he said: "The ancient layman was confused..."
"I am indeed confused. Not only am I confused now, but I am also going back to life. Are these Buddhist things of yours too evil, or are you deliberately playing tricks on me?"
"The ancient layman realized the four great states of mind and indeed transcended the Tao, life and death, the secular world, and all living beings, but..." After a moment of silence, the old monk's voice came again: "The ancient layman only did not transcend himself."
