After hearing Zhao Ran talk about his concerns about exchanging the mandala, Mingjue immediately comforted him and said: "The Taoist Master is also meritorious. He can bring the "Ten Sons of Xuanyuan" back to the Taoist sect. There is no such thing as scheming with the enemy. The Taoist Master can rest assured."
Zhao Ran said with a bitter face: "If this were not the case, how could I dare to exchange? But even so, I still can't stop others from talking. I need more chips."
"Chips?"
"Another way of saying the benefits, master, you don’t have to worry about this. By the way, I have said before that the mandala is for my own use, but I have to hand over the "Xuanyuan Ten Sons Picture" in exchange. This door
The business has suffered huge losses..."
Mingjue persuaded from a different angle: "Taoist Master Zhao, this mandala is destined to be Master Xuanci's. It is the residence of Master Xuanci's rainbow body. Please take Taoist Master Zhao for granted and be accommodating."
Zhao Ran sneered and said: "I am willing to return the rainbow body. This is already my respect for Master Xuanci. If you really want to talk about it, his Taici Temple has a big hatred for me."
Mingjue was stunned: "What does this mean? As far as the young monk knows, Master Xuanci did not hurt anyone in the battle across the mountain, right?"
Zhao Ran said bitterly: "Is the Guangzhen who accompanied us all the way to Xingqing a disciple of Master Xuanci?"
"Master Guangzhen is an accomplished monk at the pinnacle of the Arhat Realm. He has received the true Buddhist teachings from Master Xuanci. Is it possible that the Taoist Master has a grudge against him? If possible, the poor monk is willing to make a difference."
"Pindao recognizes Zhu Qigu as his god-sister and Master Chu Tian as his brother-in-law. Chang Wanzhen and Cheng Zhicheng are both close friends and senior brothers of Pindao. Master, do you think this can be changed?"
Mingjue was silent, Guangzhen killed Chang Wanzhen. As the deacon monk of Golden Needle Hall, he knew this matter clearly. As for the other man named Cheng Zhicheng, although he didn't know him, he could roughly guess it at this moment. He was probably
Guangzhen killed another Taoist priest that day.
"Buddhism and Taoism are at war, and Ming Xia is an enemy country. This is the misfortune of the world, Amitabha." Mingjue sighed.
Zhao Ran said: "If it weren't for this, Pindao would have walked away long ago when he saw him in Baihe."
"Taoist Master Zhao also asked Yuan Youzege, Master Xuansheng of Taici Temple and others to go to Baihe to greet him. This was not Tianlongyuan's original intention, and the Taoist Master also met at that time."
Zhao Ran nodded, not caring about himself, and said: "Let's not talk about it for now... Cheng An is a good friend of mine. After meeting last night, do you think Pindao can't see it? I'm afraid he will be in trouble in Xingqing now.
We are in a very embarrassing situation, and may even be in danger of our lives..."
Mingjue said hurriedly: "It won't happen."
"It's not that bad, I know it in my heart, and so does the master. Anyway, now that he has spoken, I also understand his difficulty, so I agree to exchange the mandala, but I hope Tianlongyuan can give me an explanation, or, agree
Cheng'an can come and go freely, which is my small contribution to rescuing my friend; or, you agree to Pindao's purchase of any goods Pindao wants at the Jinbo Auction House, including cattle and horses. Just these two, let me see if it works!
"
Mingjue couldn't answer, and when he was racking his brains to think about words of persuasion, he suddenly heard Zhao Ran say: "By the way, master, there is something that I want to ask master for advice."
"Director Zhao, please speak."
"A monk who calls himself Deji Zhugu sent a message to Pindao today, saying that he wanted to meet Pindao in the evening. I wonder who this person is? Does the master know?"
Mingjue's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm as he smiled and said: "The Taoist Master returned the rainbow body. This is a major event for my Buddhist sect. I don't know how many monks want to see the Taoist Master and hear what he said about Master Xuanci's final enlightenment."
The stories about Nirvana were all declined by our Taoist priest at Tianlongyuan. This one must be one of them, so the Taoist priest doesn’t need to pay attention to them. Otherwise, if he sees them one by one, how can the Taoist priest be so pure?”
Zhao Ran nodded: "So that's it, then I won't care about him."
Mingjue folded his hands and said: "Amitabha, this is how it should be. Let's do this. The poor monk will report back to the two conditions proposed by the Taoist Master and try his best to fight for them on behalf of the Taoist Master."
The two parted ways immediately. Mingjue turned around and went to the Golden Needle Hall, while Zhao Ran returned to the teaching venue. After sitting down, he asked Zhang Juzheng in a low voice: "Is the name Deji Zhugu really correct?"
Zhang Juzheng said: "It should be right. I just saw him getting up and leaving the table, so I followed him and asked. What he actually said was, 'I am Deji Zhugu'."
Zhao Ran wondered: "The people who follow Living Buddha Sangcuo should have a high status. How come Mingjue doesn't react at all?"
Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and murmured: "Deji Zhugu, Deji Zhugu, is there something special about this name? Abbot Zhao, wait a moment, I will find an opportunity to find someone to ask."
Zhao Ran warned: "Don't ask the people around you, ask strangers, preferably young monks."
Zhang Juzheng nodded: "Abbott, sit down for a moment, I'll spare it!"
After a while, Zhang Juzheng came back and said in a low voice: "Xiaguan just pretended to go to the toilet and asked a little monk who was doing the cleaning. He said that Deji means peace and happiness, and Zhugu is the name of the reincarnated monk. Can he call himself
Zhugu’s are all great great lamas.”
Zhao Ran suddenly laughed: "This Mingjue has also learned to be cunning!"
As he said that, he looked at another living Buddha named Jialingzhen from Beiyuan who was sitting in the distance. The living Buddha sensed Zhao Ran's gaze and turned his head and nodded.
Zhao Ran smiled at him and whispered to Zhang Juzheng: "Did you see the lama next to Jialingzhen Living Buddha?"
Zhang Juzheng asked: "The one wearing the shackles hat?"
Zhao Ran said: "Yes, you can find another chance to ask his name."
Zhang Juzheng said: "Understood!"
This day's Dharma conference came to an end with Master Wenyin's lecture. I only heard Wen Yin summarizing on the Dharma altar: "The "Middle Theory" says: 'Dharma arising from causes and conditions, I say, is empty, and it is also false.
, is also the middle principle. There has never been a dharma that does not arise from causes and conditions, so all dharmas have empty meaning. 'Therefore, when it comes to its arising and passing away, it is just to let the causes and conditions arise, to perish according to the causes and conditions, and to be completely accepted'
This exists because that exists, and this has no cause and that has nothing. It is governed by the law of cause and effect. Since all dharmas arise based on conditions, they cannot exist beyond the scope of mutual treatment, and they have no independent self."
Zhao Ran nodded and asked Zhang Juzheng: "How do you like it?"
Zhang Juzheng shook his head: "Crooked ways and strong arguments about right and wrong!"
"to be honest!"
"Well... from a certain... aspect, it seems to have solved the problem of why many people fall into the wrong path. This theory of cause and effect and the method of dependent origination can be used for reference in Taoist canon..."
Zhao Ran said: "Uncle, you have to remember that although we don't say it with our mouths, we must understand in our hearts that our Taoist sect is broad and inclusive. One is two, two is three, and three is all things in the world! We must be right.
There is no doubt that we are confident in our own system, so we are not afraid of the strengths of others, and we will never rest on our laurels. We can completely use good things to eliminate the good ones. This is not about bowing to the other party and admitting defeat, but
We must make our Taoist thoughts advance with the times and become stronger!"
