Chapter 314 The Buddha's sins can never be redeemed!
Great Sun Tathagata Buddha.
He has always been revered by Chinese Buddhism as the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas, but this is just the wishful thinking of the monks in China, and has never been recorded in any classics!
If there are clear records in the manuscripts of Great Wisdom, acknowledging his supreme status among Buddhas, it will undoubtedly add a lot of chips to the theory of 'Buddha'. Great Wisdom Bodhisattva preached Buddhism to the human race and established sects. The era when he lived was in the early ancient times. , is not that far away from ancient times, so the content recorded in this Bodhisattva's handwriting is highly reliable.
However, under the Buddha's name, there were eight characters written word for word. After reading it, Liu Shuzhu's face was filled with shock and confusion, so much so that he was speechless for a moment.
Buddha, ancestor, had sin!
Never, can, redeem!
Is this... the Bodhisattva Great Wisdom’s evaluation of the Patriarch of Ten Thousand Buddhas!?
Monk Yanji said: "Little Bodhisattva, do you know what the most common words are on the lips of the Buddhist disciples of the Central Plains?"
"Amitabha?"
Yanji shook his head: "This is a broad name of the Buddha that can be praised by all monks. According to the different beliefs of the Buddhist branches, each can also recite the name of the Buddha and Bodhisattva in this temple." Liu Shuzhu knew this very well, just like what Yichen said. "Bodhi is evergreen", "Mingwang is immovable" in Damingwang Temple, "Ten lives have regrets" in Tenth World Temple, and even "Wisdom and Conduct Eternal" in Beijing Chanyuan. Most of these Buddhist names are related to the Buddha and Bodhisattva that one believes in. But I can't guess what the Buddhist disciples from the Middle Earth would always say, "The Buddhist disciples from the Middle Earth often say that there are no sins in this world that cannot be redeemed."
The note written by Bodhisattva Dazhi blasphemed against the Buddha, but in later generations, monks who believed in the Great Sun Tathagata often said that sin cannot be redeemed. Is this really a coincidence?
He then looked down.
The second line writes about a ‘Buddha of the past, present and future’, also known as the Mahayana Buddha of Three Lives. There are also several words written under the name of the Buddha - meritorious service in transcending the world.
The third line, Mahayana Buddha, has merit.
The fourth line, immeasurable images of Buddha, has merit.
... Universal Fire Buddha, Pure Light Buddha, Good Seeing Buddha, Infinite Steps Buddha, Thinking of All Living Beings Buddha, Virtuous King Buddha, Guangyao Buddha, Seeing Buddha without any edge... If you look at them line by line, there are hundreds of them recorded. The vast majority of Buddha's names are Buddha's names that have never been heard by the world. All the countless great Dharma have been lost in the long river of time.
After reading the last few lines, I finally saw the vast names of Sumeru Bodhi Buddha, the Tenth Buddha, and Fudo Myoyo Buddha!
These three Buddhas have always been believed in the three major temples in the Western Desert. Except for the "Six-Character Mantra" which can barely be used as evidence for the existence of Fudo Myoyo Buddha, future generations have never known whether these three Buddhas were fabricated by the world. ...actually existed in the vast ancient times!
The last Buddha name is Green Lantern Buddha!
These Buddha names seem to be arranged according to the time of the Buddha's enlightenment, from the first Great Sun Buddha to the last Green Lantern Buddha, and the path goes back to ancient times.
The ancient years were the most glorious years for all ethnic groups, with gods and demons dancing together, and dragons and Buddhas standing side by side!
It is said that when the Lingshan Pure Land was at its peak, there were three thousand Buddhas preaching. Only half of these legends are true, so the names of the Buddhas recorded on this piece of paper may not be complete, but only a small part of them.
Liu Shuzhu discovered that except for the Great Sun Tathagata Buddha and the Ancient Buddha of Qingdeng, similar comments were written under the names of all other Buddhas.
Merit!
Only the Buddha is guilty, and all the other Buddhas are meritorious.
The position of the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha is vacant, and nothing is written below.
Liu Shuzhu was confused and turned to Yanji for confirmation. He didn't know whether it was because Yanji failed to see the content recorded later, or because the merits and demerits of the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha were not written down in the manuscript.
"It has no words in itself."
Perhaps when Bodhisattva Dazhi wrote this note, he had doubts in his heart and was unable to determine the merits and demerits of the Ancient Blue Lantern Buddha.
The handwriting on the paper was all written in the language of the ancient human race, and Yanji just copied it down as usual.
After coming out of the ancient burial site of the Buddha, Liu Shuzhu studied ancient writing and worked hard. He was no stranger to these obscure characters and could basically recognize them.
Liu Shuzhu couldn't help but wonder: "Are these things recorded in the Great Wisdom's Notes? It seems that the first Bodhisattva in the world has great courage in his heart. He persuaded all living beings to meditate and worship the Buddha, but he himself was not confused.
Even the merits and virtues of ancient Buddhas
I dare to judge the sins one by one!" Since the Tathagata Buddha is the supreme among Buddhas, then what does the sin of the Buddha mean, and what kind of sin is it that makes the Bodhisattva Great Wisdom use his pen as a sword to stay?
Such a rebellious eight words!?
It can never be redeemed.
Forever, is forever.
Monk Yanji continued: "The handbook of Venerable Dazhi is really a priceless treasure, far beyond the imagination of the world, and can even be compared with the Qingdeng Buddha vessel and the great wish relic. The content recorded in it is not limited to Dazhi.
The anecdotes of the Bodhisattva's life seem to also record many secrets related to the ancient Buddhist clan, which is the second treasure of ancient Buddhism. However, the poor monk's power is limited, and it may not be easy to know more. You need to study slowly.
research."
Listening to his words, even the monks at Zhixing Zen Temple did not really realize the true value of this handbook. In the mind of this monk, among the many relics of ancient Buddhism, the great wish relic is undoubtedly the first, and the great wisdom
Handwriting ranks second!
After seeing the name of the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha, there was no further explanation, which made Liu Shuzhu feel very anxious.
There is no record of the merits and demerits of the Qingdeng Buddha. Is it because the ancient Qingdeng Buddha was suppressed by the heavenly monument?
Will it also contain a lot of information about ancient places from all over the world?
"How difficult is it to understand this handbook?"
Monk Yanji replied truthfully: "It is difficult to become a Buddha."
Liu Shuzhu was stunned when he heard this!
He knew that Monk Yanji would never joke with him, but he never expected that the difficulty of understanding the manuscripts would be comparable to becoming a Buddha?
Immediately, Liu Shuzhu thought about the petitioning monks outside the city. They all practiced the Buddhist teachings of Zhixing Zen Monastery and whether they could understand the secrets in the Great Wisdom's Notes. After all, this thing is the temple's treasure of Zhixing Monastery. Shen Zhou led a hundred monks
Surrounding and killing him in Changshe Ridge, claiming that "Great Wisdom Killed the Snake", it was with the help of the resentful spirit of the ancient demon snake that the killing plan was laid. The world has no way of knowing about that matter. Shen Zhou and others probably learned from the manuscripts
I’ve seen relevant records in it!
"Won't."
However, Monk Yanji shook his head repeatedly with a firm tone.
"The monks in the northern border may be able to see some sporadic records, but these are trivial matters, but they may not be able to reveal many Buddha names in the manuscripts. All the monks in the world are not as good as the poor monk." This Buddhist monk has never been
Talking nonsense, if he says he can’t, then he can’t.
However, since the Great Wisdom's Notes are so difficult to understand, how did he see the Buddha's names recorded in the Notes?
"In the mind of the poor monk, there are mantras given by the Sixth Patriarch, and he recited them silently in his heart, so he was able to peek into some secrets, but due to the limitations of his cultivation, he was unable to see more writings."
Hearing this, Liu Shuzhu suddenly realized.
Yanji didn't have any practice from Zhixing Zen Academy. The reason why he could still comprehend the Great Wisdom Notes should be due to the contribution of the Six-Character Mantra!
Before his death, Huifan Arhat gave him the inheritance of the Six-Character Mantra. Many years ago, Arhat himself had read this book many times and probably tampered with it. People can't help but murmur that people in Buddhism take it seriously. He behaves eccentrically and always likes to leave behind his back.
Yanji denied his speculation: "Although the Sixth Patriarch can, with his status as a golden Arhat, I'm afraid he can't affect the Great Wisdom Codex."
The six-character mantra is actually the Fudo Myoyo mantra, which carries the true knowledge and insight of Fudo Myoyo and widely accepts his great teachings. It is so wonderful that it is indescribable. Although there are only six words left now, it is enough to establish the world. If it had not been left by the great monk Hui Fan As a back-up, the mantra itself acted as a sensor for the tablets, allowing the Yanji monk to have a glimpse of those ancient secrets.
"Little Bodhisattva, have you ever thought that the great Dharma of all Buddhas has long lost its essence, and even the Bodhisattvas of ancient times have difficulty in passing on its praises? Why did the Sixth Patriarch learn this magical power?"
Liu Shuzhu didn't know what he meant, but then he thought of another possibility, his expression changed slightly, and he said in disbelief: "Yanji, you mean to say that the six-character mantra of Hui Fan Arhat was learned from the manuscript. ?”
Yanji nodded: "The poor monk also had this speculation in his mind."
The Six-Character Mantra is separated from the present world by the entire ancient era. The ancients could not practice it. Why the Sixth Patriarch was able to understand this method is most likely related to the manuscript. It was after seeing the contents recorded in it that Hui Fan Arhat recalled his previous life. In this life, however, the Arhat is dead. Whether these things are as they thought, can only be known by asking the great wise leader personally about his resentment.
"If there are six incomplete characters of the Fudo Myoyo Mantra in the manuscript, will it also record other Buddha's great teachings?"
For example, the sad song of the Tenth Buddha; another example, the Sumeru Bodhi Song of the Bodhi Buddha?
I wanted to use this to look up information about Dazhi's first disciple, but I didn't expect to find many amazing notes!
The Notes of Great Wisdom can be said to be an encyclopedia of ancient Buddhism. This treasure is priceless.
Yanji threw away his hand, took out another sutra, and placed it in front of Liu Shuzhu's eyes: "Look again, little Bodhisattva." This was the "Great Wisdom and Yong Yuanjue Luo Yi Heart Sutra".
This Heart Sutra was created by Huifan Arhat, and Liu Shuzhu also retained half of the rubbings. When he first entered the Western Desert, he used a few crystal stones to get them from the hands of the little monk Ruzhen. And Yanji took out the Heart Sutra. The Heart Sutra is an original sutra, written by Hui Fan Arhat himself.
"Comparing the Luo Yi Heart Sutra written by the Sixth Patriarch with the notes on the paper, what did you find?"
Luo Yi's Heart Sutra was transcribed using modern writing. The notes on the paper completely imitated the handwritten notes of Dazhi, but they were written by ancient humanities. However, comparing the two, it is not difficult to find the similarities in the outlines of the strokes.
Yanji looked up and said: "The handwriting of ordinary people can be imitated, but for those with advanced cultivation, each stroke of their handwriting also contains their own ideas, but it is absolutely difficult to imitate!"
In an instant, Liu Shuzhu's expression became extremely exciting.
What Yanji means is that this volume of Great Wisdom's Notes... seems not to have been written by the Bodhisattva Great Wisdom himself, but was copied by the previous life of Arhat Hui Fan!
