When the late emperor Zhu Wen and his queen came to Qingshan Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha, they saw that Qingshan Temple was really beautiful and antique. It was indeed a good place to worship. On a whim, the late emperor Zhu Wen directly rewarded the craftsmen with a million taels to build a temple.
The largest lecture venue in Daliang, it is said that the stones paving the square were specially brought from Qingyang Mountain.
, The jade from Qingyang Mountain is famous throughout Daliang. At that time, there was a saying that one stone is worth one jade. Although it is a bit exaggerated, the stone from Qingyang Mountain is not as crystal clear as white jade, but it is also more beautiful.
It is more eye-catching and moisturizing than ordinary mountain rocks. Simply put, it is a mixture of mountain rocks and jade, so it is the best to make this paving stone.
In today's Daliang, it seems that except for Qingshan Temple, I have never heard of any temple that dares to use this Qingyang stone to pave roads. After all, if you want to build such a large formation with the temple's own incense money, you may not even eat it.
Five years of incense money is empty, but three years of incense money is enough.
In the center of this lecture hall, which can accommodate nearly ten thousand people, there are four huge Vajra statues.
The Bodhisattva lowers his eyebrows, and the Vajra eyes are angry.
The six heavens of desire in Buddhism are divided into six levels, and the first level is the "Four Heavens of Kings"
The four heavenly kings each protect the world.
The heavenly king of the Eastern Kingdom, who is white in color, wears armor, holds a sword in his left hand, and holds a sheath in his right hand.
The king of heaven grows in the south, he is blue, wears armor, and holds a sword.
The Western King of Guangmu is red in color and wears armor. He holds a scabbard in his left hand and a red rope in his right hand.
There is a king of heaven in the north who is golden in body and armor. He holds a pagoda in his left hand and a trident in his right hand. He has three yaksha ghosts under his feet.
The late Emperor Zhu Wen used countless gold to build these four Vajra King statues. In fact, he placed more hope on the four Vajras to bless the land of Daliang with good weather.
…
The young monk followed Xuan Zheng. This was the first time for the young monk to come to this lecture venue, so he was a little curious when he looked at the four Vajra statues in the center of the square. He blinked his big eyes and kept looking at them, but after seeing
After a while, the young monk scratched his head in confusion and looked at Xuan Zheng who was about to open his mouth to speak, but before he could speak, he heard Xuan Zheng whisper softly: "If you have any questions, ask the abbot."
"Oh." The young monk responded, then looked at the abbot and asked: "Abbott, this disciple has a question in his mind."
The abbot glanced at Xuan Zheng with a resentful look, and felt helpless in his heart. After all, this little monk's problem is really not something that ordinary people can understand. Xuan Zheng's own apprentice refused to teach him, so he just threw this burden into my hands, but
With Pang Liang standing aside, he had no choice but to face his scalp and agree: "Tell me."
"I would like to ask why the Bodhisattva's appearance has low eyebrows, while the Vajra's appearance has angry eyes, which makes him look far less approachable than the Bodhisattva." asked the young monk.
After the abbot heard this question, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, this question was not too much. The abbot gently stroked his beard, then looked at the young monk and replied: "Vajra is angry, so I surrender."
Demon; Bodhisattva lowers his eyebrows, so he is compassionate to the six realms."
Pang Liang on the side couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard this. This abbot's understanding of Buddhist scriptures is really beyond the reach of ordinary people. This sentence is exactly the answer.
"Disciple doesn't understand." The young monk shook his head gently.
"Haha." Pang Liang couldn't help but smile with his hands behind his back. Everyone said that Xuan Zheng's apprentice was a stupid apprentice. It seems that he was right. Even an ordinary person like him could understand what this sentence meant.
He, a monk, doesn't understand.
The abbot glanced at the young monk and was about to open his mouth to explain when he heard the young man in black behind Pang Liang whisper: "The Angry Eyed Vajra subjugates and kills evildoers, while the Low-Eyebrow Bodhisattva protects others with love. Although the two look like each other, they do so in a low voice.
There are differences, but they are all convenient ways to help others."
The abbot couldn't help but nodded when he heard this, clasped his hands and looked at the young man in black and said: "This is exactly what the donor said."
"Haha." Pang Liang smiled and said nothing.
Everyone then walked forward, but after walking a few steps, the young monk suddenly stepped forward, then looked at the abbot and said, "That's not right."
"What's wrong?"
"What he just said is wrong." The young monk pointed at the young man in black and shouted.
"What's wrong?" the abbot asked with a smile.
"What he said is obviously saying that the Lord Buddha teaches according to his aptitude, but what the Buddha teaches is to observe the opportunity and tease the teacher." The young monk replied seriously.
"What's the difference between teaching students in accordance with their aptitude and the Buddhist teaching based on observing the situation?" asked the young man in black.
"Based on aptitude, that is a matter of aptitude. Different aptitudes lead to different religions. However, the Lord Buddha said that all living beings are equal and we cannot divide them based on their aptitude. Therefore, it is impossible for the Lord Buddha to let Vajra control evil people and Bodhisattvas control good people. How could this be the case?
Isn’t it time to fight violence with violence?”
As soon as the young monk said this, Abbot Xuanzheng Pang Liang and the young man in black were all stunned.
"This..." The abbot looked at the young monk and was speechless.
"Then why do you think the Bodhisattva lowered his eyebrows and glared at the Vajra?" Xuan Zheng asked with a smile.
"Whether it's the Bodhisattva's low eyebrows or the Vajra's angry eyes, they all have one thing in common, that is, they don't look directly into the eyes of mortals." The young monk replied.
"You are confused, do you mean that Buddha did not dare to look directly into the eyes of mortals?" Pang Liang asked loudly.
"Donor, that's exactly what I mean." The young monk put his hands together and nodded slightly.
"Xuanzheng, your disciple is really..." Pang Liang finished his sentence, angrily rolled up his sleeves and did not continue.
"Why don't you want to face it?" Xuan Zheng turned to look at the young monk and asked.
"Because people's eyes penetrate the heart, and Buddha didn't want to see the inner world of mortals." The young monk explained.
"Nonsense, Buddha is supposed to overcome the dangers in people's hearts. Why doesn't he look at the hearts of ordinary people?" the young man in black retorted.
"Buddha is the incarnation of great kindness and compassion, so they don't look at it, but listen with their ears, because if they look at it, they will know more. If they know more, they will not be able to hear the prayers of mortals." The young monk
Then he said.
Everyone was silent after hearing this, and it seemed that they could no longer find anything to say to refute the young monk.
Xuan Zheng touched the little monk's head and said with a smile: "Maybe this is the reason why my master Duan Chen poked his eyes blind."
When Pang Liang heard this, he suddenly turned around and looked at Xuanzheng. The abbot had the same reaction. Back then, Master Duanchen closed his eyes due to autism, which was almost a strange thing that all the monks in Qingshan Temple could not understand. But today, after listening to the little
Everyone seemed to understand a little bit about what the monk said.
Pang Liang looked at the little monk and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, is this child really as stupid as the rumors outside? If he is really stupid, how could he so easily reveal the reason why Master Duan Chen closed his eyes due to autism?
