Yuan Xin heard what Wuxu said and asked Wuxu, "Master Wuxu, do you know the origin of the masked fairy?"
Wuxu felt unhappy and thought to himself, "If you have something to say, just say it. Why bother to ask me?" Rao Wanzi thought so, but didn't say it, so he sat in front of Yuan Xin, clasped his hands and said, "But listen to the master's explanation
.”
Yuan Xin was not annoyed and clasped his hands together and said, "That masked fairy woman should come from the outer world."
Heaven outside the sky? Wuxu asked in surprise. It was the first time he heard about it, but he had an intuition that this place was not simple.
"The sky outside the sky is a secret realm, or a small world. Legend has it that nearly a thousand years ago, a great change occurred in the upper world. The path of immortals and Buddhas was almost cut off. Only one or two immortals showed mercy and descended from the upper world.
Immortal artifacts have constructed a small world, leaving a glimmer of hope for future generations of practitioners. It is rumored that this small world was established with reference to the fairy world and is full of spiritual energy. It really makes the monks practice hard in this world, and finally they can truly
Ascend to the upper realm.”
When Wuxu heard what Yuan Xin said, he nodded, feeling surprised and happy. It turned out that for thousands of years, the immortal way had no proof, but it was because of this, but there was still a mystery. Suddenly, he saw Yuan Xin standing aside.
, remained silent, just sighed softly, and asked, "Master Yuanxin, I think you should have already entered the true spirit level, why not?"
Yuan Xin's hands, which were originally clasped together, suddenly spread apart and made the Buddha's three-flavor liberation seal. Then he stood up again, facing the night sky outside the window, and said, "Amitabha, do you know who the immortal was who lowered the immortal weapon from the upper world?"
?”
Wuxu knew that this was the key to the problem, so he cheered up and looked at Yuan Xin steadily.
Yuan Xin paused for a while, not expecting Wuxu to say anything to ask, and then said, "It is said that there are two immortal artifacts in the sky outside the sky, one is the Stars Fixed Sky Disk, and the other is the Great Sun Tathagata Vajra Circle.
"
As soon as Yuan Xin said these words, Wuxu frowned and couldn't help but said, "The sky and stars in the sky seem to be a Taoist thing? This Great Sun Tathagata Vajra Circle should be a thing of my Buddhist sect." After saying that,
Look at the round letter.
Yuan Xin turned around, faced the golden Buddha in the hall, clasped his hands and said, "The fixed empty disk of stars in the sky was left by the founder of the Zhengyi Sect. The Vajra Circle of the Great Sun Tathagata is our Buddha, neither is it."
I am a Buddhist." Wuxu blurted out, "Is it the inheritance of Lamaism?"
Yuan Xin did not answer, but just recited "Amitabha, good, good, good."
Wuxu was speechless. As expected, he just asked with luck, "Is it possible that the Quanzhen Sect, which spreads Buddhism to the Han people in the south, was suppressed because of this?"
That Yuan Xin said again, "Amitabha, good, good, good."
At this time, Wuxu had vaguely understood many things and nodded without saying a word.
Yuan Xin added, "Heaven beyond is a realm of its own. In the past few hundred years, not only Buddhism and Quanzhen Sect, but also Lamaism and Zhengyi Sect, there seems to be no true spiritual monks who have entered that day."
Outer heaven." Wuxu asked in shock, "Why is this?" But Yuan Xin smiled and said nothing. He couldn't help but think of the four words "Misfortune arises from Xiao Qiang", and his heart couldn't help but put his palms on his chest, "Amitabha, good, good, good."
Master Yuanxin here said, "Amitabha, they all say that a long-term illness has no filial son, but how can we have the kindness of three generations? As time goes by, this blood-thick family relationship has also faded, let alone the master's sect passing down the Dharma across generations.
Feelings?" Then the topic changed again, "Master Wuxu, although he is in the mundane realm, he has completed the Mandala Dharma Realm. If nothing unexpected happens, he will be promoted to a real person in the near future. I don't know, what are your plans?"
Wuxu, sitting on the futon, with his hands in the lotus seal of Guanyin, said quietly, "The young monk only pursues the great road. It is said that all living beings are suffering and all dharmas are empty. What the young monk wants is that all living beings have the opportunity to escape from the sea of suffering.
All living beings can achieve greatness."
Yuan Xin immediately sat back on the futon and said solemnly, "We, Xiangguo Temple and Baima Temple, want to hire Master Wuxu as a messenger to visit various Buddhist sects in the Central Plains, and even Lamaism, Zhengyi Sect, and Quanzhen Sect, and plan together
, Let’s seek the heaven outside the sky together.”
Xiangguo Temple and White Horse Temple? This is Kaifeng Xiangguo Temple?
He also discussed with Baima Temple to hire himself as a messenger? Why visit various Buddhist sects in the Central Plains, even Lamaism, Zhengyi Sect, Quanzhen Sect, and travel around the world... Wuxu was about to refuse.
But Yuan Xin turned his hands outward, holding a small pagoda with colorful glass in his left hand, and a Buddhist scripture in his right hand, which was simple and elegant. He slowly raised it into the air and floated towards Wuxu.
The small pagoda was flashing with colorful glazed brilliance, and it was clearly a replica of the seven-colored glazed pagoda made by Master Yuanfa of Baima Temple; while the volume of Buddhist scriptures floated quietly in front of Wuxu, motionless.
Wuxu asked, "What kind of scripture is this scroll?"
"The Surangama Sutra of the Secret Causes of the Tathagata on the Top of the Great Buddha, the Practice and Realization of the Righteousness of the Bodhisattvas of Ten Thousand Practices" Yuan Xin clasped his hands together, incomparably solemn.
It turned out to be the Shurangama Sutra! Immediately after enlightenment, he bowed, held his hands in the air, and took this sutra into his hands with great respect. Then he respectfully sent this sutra to the shrine in the Mandala Dharma Realm Buddhist Hall. It stayed there for a while.
, Fang said to Yuan Xin, "This sutra was falsely accused of being a false sutra in later generations, probably because all the evil spirits in the world are afraid of the power of this sutra. I have experienced seven debates and fifty demons in this sutra, and I deeply feel the profoundness of the Buddha's teachings."
So solemn, so I stick to the right path and work hard with one heart. Now that I have this sutra, the young monk must accept it and pass it on."
It turns out that in the previous life of Wuxu, after experiencing the catastrophe of apocryphal scriptures, due to their obscurity and long sutras and mantras, most people in later generations have difficulty following them. Wuxu in the previous life is no exception; Wuxu in the previous life, read to
In the post-menstrual chapter "Fifty Evil Demons", comparing my own moods and the ups and downs of the world, I was quite impressed and gained a lot.
Therefore, based on this cause and condition, Yuan Xin held the Surangama Sutra in his hand and presented it to Wuxu. Seeing the cause and condition of his previous life, Wuxu immediately bowed and put his palms together to greet him with the words "Namo World Honored Amitabha."
Therefore, he silently accepted the invitation of Xiangguo Temple and Baima Temple.
..
In the 17th year of the Yuan Dynasty, Liu Futong sent three separate expeditions to the north, and the troops were directed towards Dadu. The flag of the Red Scarf Army even read: "Three thousand tigers will reach the land of Youyan; the dragon will fly in ninety-five, and the sky of the Song Dynasty will be reopened."
In June, Liu Futong sent Bai Buxin, Dadao Ao, Li Xixi and other generals to the west to reinforce Li Wu and Cui Dexi's route army who had attacked Shaanxi the previous year. In June of the same year, Mr. Guan and Po Tou Pan led the main force of the Northern Expedition and set out from Caozhou, Shandong to the west.
Entering Shanxi; in February, Mao Gui was ordered to lead his army out to sea from Haizhou, land on the Shandong Peninsula by sea ship, and conquer various places in Shandong.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Rujing were in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The military officers included Zhu Wenzheng, Zhu Wenhui (the adopted son of the Zhu family), Xu Wenchang, Tang He (childhood companion), Lan Yu, Chang Yuchun (a fierce general in the army), etc., and the literary officers included Li Shanchang and Liu
With the help of Ji, Song Lian and others, they worked hard and worked hard in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Unknowingly, they also owned three thousand miles of royal land.
On this day, Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Yuchun reported back from Kaifeng, talking about his "accidental encounter" with Wuxu, and presented Wuxu's autographed letter.
Zhu Yuanzhang opened Wuxu's letter in front of all his confidants, and then laughed loudly, "My senior brother is still alive as expected, and he has cultivated the Mandala Dharma Realm and became the elder of the Lamaism. Not only that, now,
He also predicted Liu Futong's Northern Expedition early, and advised me, like all of you, to 'gather up supplies, build high walls, and slowly become king'!"
While talking and laughing, he passed the letter to everyone to read.
After a while, the superiors, Li Shanchang and others, came out and said, "It is gratifying that the general has heard about the whereabouts of our fellow disciples. Master Wuxu, what he said in the letter is exactly what we have discussed about the 'Guangjiliang'
, the principle of building high walls and slowly becoming king." However, Buddhist practice is different from marching in military formations. If the White Lotus Sect's momentum is increased, it may be detrimental to the development of our army."
As soon as this statement came out, many Confucian scholars came out one after another,
"The army should be led by the general, how can it place its trust in the illusory Buddha?"
"The Buddha is a dharma that transcends the world, and the general is a person who enters the world to help the people. How can they be confused?"
"All living beings are equal? How could it be that all living beings suffer. If you think that all living beings are equal, wouldn't the order of respect and inferiority disappear? When two armies are fighting, isn't it possible to disrespect orders? Generals, like dragons and tigers, are thousands of vehicles.
Aren't you the same as the sergeants below? So, how can we rely on you and follow the dragon?"
Finally, Liu Ji came out and said, "'All living beings are equal, there are no sufferings, but they can enjoy all kinds of happiness, so it is called bliss.'" This is the family saying of Master Wuxu. Whether to use it or not is still between the generals.
Bowen believes that all living beings are equal, and it is more appropriate to change it to the Buddhist saying that all living beings are suffering."
Zhu Yuanzhang quietly looked at the expressions of the people below. After hearing Liu Ji and Liu Bowen's words, he laughed and said, "Excellent! The military emphasizes strict discipline and prohibitions. All living beings are equal, but these reckless men below misunderstood
It’s gone, it’s not big or small; it’s better for all sentient beings to suffer and let all the sons and daughters know that the Yuan Dynasty is innocent, and my only goal is to uphold the law for heaven and attack the Yuan Dynasty!”
As the saying goes
In the middle sky of Xiangguo Temple and in the outer sky, one volume of Surangama is fifty-sixth.
My fellow disciples say they are equal, and my Confucian scholar declares the origin of suffering.
