Next, Wu Yi was with these Taoist disciples, but after what happened before, no one deliberately made things difficult. Before he obtained the position of Liuchen Guest Minister, his identity was just a guest.
This way of singing Tao songs can show the Taoist's strength to a certain extent, and it is also a good way to resolve conflicts during the banquet. Many low-level disciples think that powerful people still need to kill each other to decide the outcome, which is somewhat of a frog in the well.
.
The more advanced one's cultivation is, if it were not for the hatred of life and death, no one would actually fight to the death. There will be fewer and fewer ways of fighting, and more and more, the outcome will be decided by literary fighting.
The melodious Buddhist bells rang for more than three days and then gradually stopped. By this time, the people who should come should have arrived even if there were some accidents on the road.
This Water and Land Dharma Ceremony officially began, and the person hosting it was none other than one of the few people Wu Yi knew well in Liuchen Temple - the Masters of Zhidu.
The Dharma Conference is naturally focused on teaching the Dharma. The Masters of Wisdom sat down and began to teach the Dharma first, involving the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism, the Eightfold Path and the Twelve Paths of Cause and Condition, which are the most basic theoretical knowledge of Buddhism and basically come from
An exposition of primitive Buddhism.
If a Buddhist cultivator does not even know these things, his status as a Buddhist disciple is very questionable. No matter which sect he comes from, it cannot be justified. It is just as annoying as a Taoist disciple saying that he does not even know the three pure things.
laugh.
Sanqing, Taiqing - Taishang Laojun, Shangqing - Yuanshi Tianzun, Yuqing - Tongtian leader. Many exercises that have been handed down today have the words Taiqing, Shangqing and Yuqing in front of them to show their origin.
.
Even in the Middle Ages, there was a dispute between the Shangqing lineage and the Yuqing lineage. The victorious Shangqing lineage suppressed the Yuqing lineage and became an evil sect, despising it as an evil cultivator. However, many Yuqing methods were still retained.
The Three Purities are originally one body, and the internal struggles are only due to the differentiation of ideas. They are basically the same.
In the same way, the dispute between Mahayana and Hinayana in Buddhism is the same.
Primitive Buddhism was roughly the period after Sakyamuni established Buddhism and the disputes over medieval interpretations. Because Buddhism was weak in power, there was no tendency to differentiate at all, and it was extremely united internally and externally.
The concepts handed down from that time are also respected by all Buddhist disciples today.
It is undeniable that the Masters of Wisdom have extremely profound attainments in Buddhism. When teaching the Dharma, they mentioned the origin of human beings and all life, the discussion of the ontology of the universe, the infiniteness of time and space, the interdependence of body and function, the purity of mind nature, and the discussion of the heart.
Casual disciples may not be able to understand that even though Wu Yi is not from a Buddhist background, he can still gain a lot from hearing about it.
Flowers are falling from the sky, and golden lotuses are emerging from the ground. For others, this scene is difficult to see, but for the wisdom masters, it is a normal sign, causing the heaven and earth to respond, and there is nothing surprising about the mountains and rivers shaking.
Despite his cultivation level, he only dares to talk about some primitive Buddhist theories at this moment.
It seemed that he was destined to be the trigger. Wu Yi smiled bitterly in his heart.
The masters of Zhidu preached for more than a day, and then stopped, interspersed back and forth, and presented pros and cons. It was obviously a very profound and obscure theory, but it gave people the feeling of being simple and easy to understand.
Of course, it is just this feeling. Without practicing the Dharma personally, the content of the wisdom masters' speeches can only go in from the left ear and out the right ear, and it is of little effect.
After that, the other Buddhists came forward and each told his own thoughts. Their understanding and feelings about the Great Dao, Heaven and Earth, gave Wu Yi a brand-new feeling.
Among them, there is also the debate link. Strictly speaking, in terms of viewing, this link is the most exciting, but it is also the most dangerous. During the debate, it is the collision of the two sides' understanding of the road, and it is a battle of wills.
If you are not careful, the fundamental Tao will be shaken, and you will die without it, which is more painful than the death of Tao and the body.
Unfortunately, when Wu Yi was appointed Liuchen Guest Minister, he needed to explain his own views. During this process, it was foreseeable that someone would come forward to debate with Wu Yi.
If literary debate fails, it may turn into a physical fight.
Time flew by, the sun and the moon flew by, and the next half-moon was spent preaching and debating. Wu Yi spent most of the time with his eyes closed, looking like he was being slaughtered, without any sign of escape.
When the masters of wisdom announced that Wu Yi would be the guest, Wu Yi, who had closed his eyes to rest, opened his eyes, harnessed the escaping light, and made lotus flowers step by step, heading towards the center.
The place of preaching is actually an enlarged twelfth-grade golden lotus, which can allow monks to perform exceptionally. Wu Yi has become the first cave monk in the field who is lucky enough to enter the twelfth-grade golden lotus. I don’t know how many monks look at Wu
Yi's eyes were full of envy and jealousy.
Wu Yi stood as tall as a pine tree and spoke in a melodious tone: "The Taoist Scriptures say: The ancient true man held up the heaven and the earth, grasped the yin and yang, exhaled the ** energy, guarded the gods independently, and his muscles were as one, so he could live as long as the heaven and the earth, and there is no end. This
Its Tao is born.
The most perfect man in the middle and ancient times, who was pure and virtuous, was in harmony with the yin and yang in the four seasons. He died away from the world, accumulated all his energy, and traveled between the heaven and the earth. In addition to hearing and seeing, this cover——"
Wu Yi's words, which were like endorsements, gave the Liuchen Guan Wise School an excuse. At this moment, there was a spacious and round-faced Buddha without stepping on the lotus platform. He waded directly to the golden lotus and interrupted Wu Yi, saying: "
If you can only recite Taoist scriptures, how can you achieve the position of guest minister!"
Wu Yi performed a Taoist salute and asked, "May I ask the master's name?"
"As a poor monk, I will not change my name when I am walking, I will not change my surname when I sit down. I am the Six-Armed Arhat!" After saying this, four arms have grown out from behind the Six-Armed Arhat. There is no trace of disharmony, and the appearance of the Dharma is solemn.
Such a scene is also expected. Wu Yi said: "Master, what else do you think you need to know to become a guest?"
The Six-Armed Arhat did not directly answer this question, but asked: "Is it possible that your Taoist sect only has these negative and vain statements? Will it only teach people to live alone, be passive and worldly, and live in seclusion?"
The Six-Armed Arhat's stick was so cruel that he offended all the Taoist disciples present, and the atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.
And Wu Yi was in the center of this whirlpool. If he answered well, the Six-Armed Arhat might directly use force. If he answered badly, Immortal Qingxuan would not let him go.
Wu Yidao: "Of course it's not like that. Taoism has the skills of emperors to govern, strategies to assist the country and manage the world, strategies to strengthen the army to defeat, and the ability to defend the enemy and resist humiliation. Managing the world is also very meritorious."
The Six-Armed Arhat nodded frequently and then asked: "Is there any more?"
His intentions were already obvious, and Wu Yi frowned.
