Tang Sanzang fell ill and lay in bed for half a month.
In fact, during the more than ten years of pilgrimage, Tang Sanzang never fell ill, no matter whether it was violent storms, heat waves or severe cold.
It's not that he has great supernatural powers, he is actually a human body, but wearing a brocade cassock given by the Buddha himself and holding a nine-ring tin staff can prevent him from falling into reincarnation and being poisoned.
Therefore, ordinary foreign objects cannot harm him at all.
Only when his inner faith is severely impacted can he lose his mind.
Why did he decide to go to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures in the first place?
For the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to whom he was loyal, the Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism in the Western Heaven could save people from suffering, lead a long life without deterioration, resolve hundreds of grievances, and eliminate countless disasters.
He, Li Shimin, knew that he could still be emperor for thirty years. All he had to do was resolve hundreds of grievances and eliminate unnecessary disasters, which would be enough to make him happy.
For Tang Sanzang, he had read all the Hinayana Buddhism and still had countless questions. He heard that there is a Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism in the west, which can surpass the dead and ascend to heaven, can save people from suffering and escape suffering, can cultivate the body of infinite life, and can do things without coming and going.
With the Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism, his doubts in Buddhism were gone, allowing him to practice as much as he wanted and immerse himself in Buddhism.
But Xiaoleiyinshan and his party, Fengzhou's wonderful sound solved doubts and moved the three realms. They explained the Buddhist teachings in a concise and concise way, so simple and straightforward that even believers with little literary background could hear it clearly and clearly. Naturally, the same could be said for Tang Sanzang.
Not only that, all the usual doubts are gone, and by practicing Buddhism like this, I understand that everything is not eternal, and that everything from birth to death is impermanent in an instant.
After being ill for half a month, he thoroughly understood himself. The silence and non-birth that all distracting thoughts completely subsided allowed Tang Sanzang to truly realize that the nature of cause and effect is essentially empty, that it is neither cause nor effect, and that there is no abiding nirvana.
The deepest sense.
Accomplish the wisdom of making, the wisdom of wonderful observation, the wisdom of equality, and the wisdom of the great round mirror.
The four wisdoms are perfect and there is no abiding in nirvana.
When Tang Sanzang had some enlightenment, a Buddha flame ignited in the sky. From the Buddha flame, a golden lotus gradually rose up, faintly surrounding Tang Sanzang, containing all dharma and transcending the consequences of cause and effect.
Transcendence from the four kalpas of formation, existence, destruction, and emptiness is both permanent and impermanent.
When he realized everything but realized nothing, he woke up, recovered from his serious illness, and all the poisons disappeared.
After three months, Tang Sanzang was finally able to stand up.
"Wukong, how long do we have until we reach Lingshan?" Tang Sanzang asked numbly.
Sun Wukong said: "You have grown from childhood to old age. No matter how young you are, it will still be difficult for you to do it a thousand times. As long as you are sincere and sincere, you will reach the spiritual mountain."
"Yes, the place you look back on is Lingshan Mountain. In fact, if you understand Buddhism, where is Lingshan Mountain? Why do you have to go to Lingshan Mountain?" Tang Sanzang sighed.
"Master has already understood the superior Dharma, shouldn't he go to Lingshan Mountain?" Sun Wukong was overjoyed and asked quickly.
These past three months have been a really happy life.
Yang Jian, the Bull Demon King, often visits and talks with him.
And Feng Zhou answered his doubts, which made him not want to go west to cultivate the true fruit.
The Bull Demon King and Red Boy are free and easy, but they have already cultivated into immortals. As long as they do not harm the common people or take human lives, they can be free from restraints and achieve great freedom. So why do they need any positive achievements?
Therefore, after hearing that Tang Sanzang's Buddhist teachings were so diligent, he seemed to have understood the essence of Mahayana Yoga, and he asked quickly.
"Lingshan is in my heart, but Lingshan is not in my heart, so of course I want to go. At least, your tight curse must be removed, right?" Tang Sanzang said with a smile.
A hundred and eighty thousand miles has been traveled, and fifty or sixty thousand miles have been traveled. No matter what, there must be a beginning and an end.
"Hahaha, to be honest with Master, my tightening curse has been lifted." Sun Wukong laughed and took off the thin hoop on his head.
"Oh?" Tang Monk was startled and looked at Sun Wukong carefully.
The two looked at each other, with countless sparks shining in their eyes.
"The tight band has been removed and you are free. Why stay here? Wukong, let's go!" Tang Sanzang said calmly.
"If you leave, you will stay, and if you stay, you will leave! Why does Master need to show off?" Sun Wukong smiled slightly.
"Good! Good! Good! Your Heart Sutra has been completed." Tang Sanzang applauded and praised.
While they were talking, the two of them had already walked out of the courtyard.
The place they live in is naturally a residence specially allocated to them by Feng Zhou.
After all, they are Fengzhou's sworn brothers, aren't they?
I can't feel wronged anymore.
Therefore, in the past three months, the four masters, apprentices, and Bai Longma have enjoyed very high living standards. They all used their own money to seal the boat.
At this time, Tang Monk and Wukong walked out of the middle door, and saw the bright moon, calling: "Disciple." Wukong was at the side, and Bajie and Sha Monk also heard the call and came out to stand.
Because I feel that this moon is clear and bright, and the jade sky is deep, it is really a round of high sunshine, and the earth is clear, and I cherish the moon.
Tang Monk sighed: "At this moment, the poor monk only thinks of a poem, please appreciate it."
The poem goes: "The soul is as bright as a precious mirror hanging in the sky, and the shadows of mountains and rivers are very complete. The jade towers are full of clear light, and the silver plate of ice is refreshing. Thousands of miles are bright and clear at this time, and the night is the most vivid in the year. It is as thick as frost cakes leaving the sea, but
It's like an ice wheel hanging on the blue sky. The cold windows of the annex are lonely and stuffy, and the old man sleeps in the wild shop in the mountain village. When I first came to the Han Garden, I was startled by the autumn hair, and then I went to the Qin Tower to pay for the evening dowry. Yu Liang had a poem to pass down the history of the Jin Dynasty, and Yuan Hong couldn't sleep on the boat on the river. The light
The surface of the floating cup is cold and weak, and there are immortals in the clear courtyard. Snow is singing in the windows and courtyards everywhere, and ice strings are playing in every courtyard. I am quietly playing in the mountain temple tonight. When will I return to my hometown again? "
Sun Wukong listened and nodded, and finally said: "Master, in your heart is the brilliance of the moonlight and your hometown. In my heart, I know that the meaning of the moon is the rule of the innate dharma. If we can warm and nourish you,
Eight or ninety-nine times, it is successful. At that time, it is easy to see the Buddha, and it is also easy to return to the hometown. The poem says: after the first string and the second string before the last string, the medicine tastes normal and the atmosphere is complete. After picking it up, it is refined in the furnace, and the fruit of the aspiration will be in the west. "
"Wonderful, wonderful! After such enlightenment, we, the four masters and disciples, still need to go to the west. The poor monk listened to Wukong's words and understood them instantly. He understood the true words clearly. I owe a lot to Wukong for being my teacher."
After saying that, he clasped his hands together and nodded to Wukong.
Wukong also put his hands together and returned the gift.
Sha Monk laughed at the side and said: "Although my senior brother's words are true, my junior brother also has a saying: there is no competition among the three families. The water is in the Yangtze River and the moon is in the sky."
When Sanzang of the Tang Dynasty heard about it, he also had some enlightenment. It was precisely because he understood that one aperture can lead to thousands of apertures, and he said that if he breaks through the non-life, he is an immortal.
Bajie stepped forward and grabbed the elder and said: "Master, don't listen to nonsense and miss the chance to sleep. This month is missing and reunited soon. It seems that I was born imperfect. When I eat, I feel like I have a big belly. When I hold the bowl, I feel sticky.
Hey, he is smart and cultivates blessings, but I am stupid and have accumulated bad luck. I say that you will complete the three paths of karma by studying the scriptures, and you will go straight to heaven with a wag of your tail and your head!"
Sanzang said: "Well, my disciples have worked hard to take care of me. Let's go to bed first and wait until tomorrow to set off for the West."
The next day, Tang Monk entered the palace, met with Feng Zhou, and said that he was going on his way. Feng Zhou laughed and said, "Since Emperor Xuanzang wants to get up and go on his way, I will naturally not stop him. I just want to see the World Honored Tathagata.
I have something to tell you."
Tang Sanzang said: "Please give me your Majesty's instructions."
Feng Zhou said: "The Buddha just sat back and watched Sakyamuni's country subjugate. I didn't feel right. Therefore, his Dharma can be spread all over the world. There is only a great world, and I am the only one who is the most respected!"
Tang Sanzang was stunned, and whispered: "Amitabha!" Then he asked: "Why does your Majesty want me to tell you?"
Feng Zhou laughed: "Because you are Luo Luo, Jin Chanzi, and Chen Xuanzang. If I don't let you tell me, who should I tell you?"
Tang Monk was silent.
The son of an old friend passed by here and when he left, he asked him to send a message to him. This is a matter of course.
