It was still dark the next day. Before I woke up, Tao Yaoyao hurriedly pulled me up.
I complained and resisted in vain, missing the soft bed very much. Tao Yaoyao took my arm and dragged me out like an animal. As soon as I opened the door, a blast of extremely cold air came out, and I felt cold instantly.
I woke up. I wanted to go back to the room to add some clothes, but Tao Yaoyao said it was almost too late and told me to hurry up so as not to miss the big show.
Suddenly, I saw Tao Yaoyao, who was dragging me away, wearing only that beautiful floral dress, whistling by in the icy cold wind in the morning, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
We ran across the huge square in the temple. The door of the temple was not locked and opened with a push. Tao Yaoyao excitedly ran out of Zebu Temple with me.
She took me to a wilderness far away from the temple. The atmosphere in the woods was even colder than in the temple. It was so cold that my goosebumps fell all over the ground, but Tao Yaoyao seemed not to feel anything.
He jumped up and down beside me excitedly, praising me for my good luck, pointing to a big tree in front of me, and said: "Open your Yin and Yang eyes quickly! Open your Yin and Yang eyes quickly."
I opened my eyes as she did, and the scene in front of me suddenly made me breathless.
Countless evil ghosts in ragged clothes were crawling in front of me, and the gathering of Yin Qi around me seemed to take me back to the endless purgatory in Wuling Village. I immediately felt my scalp numb, and I even forgot about the cold.
Tao Yaoyao had only one thought in her mind - run!
Tao Yaoyao still smiled and pulled me, indicating that I should look in the direction she pointed.
I looked along and discovered that under the big tree she was pointing to, there was sitting cross-legged the soul of an old lama wearing traditional Tibetan Buddhist robes. The old lama had his eyes closed tightly, his hands clasped together, and he was muttering something.
There was a golden divine light around him, just like the light above the head of Sakyamuni.
And the countless evil ghosts crawling slowly under my feet actually didn't notice me at all, or they noticed me and were not interested at all. The evil ghosts were all attracted to the old lama and surrounded the old lama's soul, probably out of fear.
The old lama's divine light emitted, but they dared not approach. Some of the evil ghosts grinned at the old lama in provocation, while most of the evil ghosts kowtowed to the old lama, with pitiful supplications in their eyes.
The old lama closed his eyes and ignored them, showing no emotion.
He just chanted sutras under the tree, surrounded by the noise of evil spirits, as if he was isolated from the world.
Tao Yaoyao patted my shoulder and said to me: "Hey, Zhang Tianju, you are really lucky. Do you know who he is?"
"who is he?"
"I'm afraid he is the living Buddha who just passed away in this Tibetan area." Tao Yaoyao looked at the old lama in the divine light, with a rare look of awe and seriousness in her eyes.
I also know something about the rumors about Living Buddhas in Tibetan areas. Generally speaking, every Tibetan area will have an enlightened monk who is revered as a "Living Buddha". "Living Buddha" is the spiritual symbol of Buddhist culture in Tibetan areas, and many Tibetans will have it in their homes.
Hang the portrait of the "Living Buddha" to worship and pray every day. Every time there is a Tibetan festival, the "Living Buddha" will hold a Dharma assembly and lecture, and almost all the local Tibetans will compete to participate, hoping that the "Living Buddha" can touch their heads and bless them.
Many people from out of town will also come here because they are famous, and they also hope to be blessed.
The "Living Buddha" is of extremely sacred and important significance to Tibetan areas. Compared with the "Tathagata" and "Guanyin" who are far away in the bliss of the West, the Living Buddha is more like the most important spiritual support for all Buddhist believers.
To sum up, the ‘living Buddha’ is the god in the hearts of the people in Tibetan areas.
The birth of a living Buddha also has very far-reaching significance and a solemn and mysterious color. It is said that the inheritance of the "living Buddha" comes from the death and reincarnation of the new generation of living Buddhas. The newly reincarnated living Buddha will not forget the memory of the previous generation.
He still upholds the supreme Dharma and serves as the spiritual pillar of this generation.
This kind of saying in our Taoist circles is that the soul of life changes its master, which is actually somewhat contrary to the way of heaven.
The original 'living Buddha' who passed away had his soul leave the body, looking for a suitable host and then occupying the body of the newborn. This was my initial understanding. But seeing the scene in front of me, I suddenly realized that I might be wrong. That kind of sacred
The light of Buddha makes me naturally feel that the reincarnation of Buddhist power may not go through the hell full of evil.
I suddenly understood the meaning of the existence of ‘Zebu Temple’.
Tao Yaoyao looked at the soul of the old lama and said: "This living Buddha has just passed away. When you arrived at Zebu Temple yesterday, didn't the young novice say that his master was preparing for the Dharma ceremony? It must be for this 'living Buddha'
The reception ceremony."
"Three days after the passing of the living Buddha, he will first enter the Western Bliss through the 'Jie Yin Temple' and worship the Lord Buddha. Then he will return here to be reborn on the seventh day after his passing. The process is very sacred and extremely arduous. Before you.
This scene of 'All ghosts are addicted to Buddha' is just the first calamity he needs to go through."
"Every 'Jie Yin Temple' in the world is surrounded by countless evil spirits who come from all over the world and cannot reincarnate. They all hope to wash away their endless karma by taking over the priesthood of the 'Living Buddha'. Every day
The soul of any 'living Buddha' will face the test of 'all ghosts are addicted to Buddha' in the first three days."
I watched all this quietly, and the divine light on the old lama shone brighter and brighter, as if it shone into my heart. Slowly, I felt that the distracting thoughts and anger in my heart were slowly dissipating, and I felt like
It was back to the original me. Suddenly, I thought of the purest kid in the world I saw in the hospital.
Suddenly, the living Buddha sitting cross-legged under the tree roots opened his eyes, and his shining eyes met mine. The watch on my wrist suddenly vibrated. I raised my hand and saw that the indicator on the watch was "
The silver needle of the Life Stone is red and translucent, and it really points to the position where the Living Buddha is sitting cross-legged.
I suddenly realized something, and regardless of Tao Yaoyao's surprise, I rushed towards the Living Buddha. I saw the soul of the 'Living Buddha' smiling mysteriously at me. When I rushed over, everything in front of me suddenly disappeared, and countless evil spirits appeared.
The ghost was gone, and so was the soul of the 'living Buddha', leaving only a lonely tree. I raised my arm, and my watch calmed down again, and the silver needle returned to normal.
"Ah, it's gone." Tao Yaoyao walked up to me very discouraged, patted my head, and asked angrily: "Why are you so impulsive and scare away the living Buddhas?
Do you know that witnessing this very rare 'miraculous vision' will greatly improve your practice of Yin and Yang Eyes?"
"Life stone..."
Tao Yaoyao said: "Ah? What did you say?"
I said: "The 'Huihua Stone' we are looking for is definitely related to this living Buddha!"
