Chapter 417 What is the purpose of disrupting the venue
The rainbow ceremony was very lively, but the open space in the center of Baiyun Temple was very peaceful and quiet.
Through the cracks in the door and window, I saw several monks with solemn faces carrying a corpse wrapped in yellow cloth to a platform in the middle of the open space. Then they sat down cross-legged and sat around the corpse with one hand raised.
Beside him, he silently recited sutras and mantras.
At this time, many lamas and monks who were watching the ceremony also came to the Honghua site.
Different from the gatherings in the Central Plains, these lamas and monks who devote themselves to Buddha are extremely quiet. Although there are circles of people surrounding the ceremony, no one speaks, and everyone is solemn and solemn.
Their eyes were fixed on the table. No one entertained them, and no guests took the initiative to make noise. They all sat down on the floor very consciously.
After nearly half an hour of calm, the monk slowly walked onto the high platform.
The person walking at the front was Master Panzhi, who had been close friends with Master Tongshan for many years, and was also the host of this Dharma assembly. After taking the stage, he squatted on the edge of the corpse, twisting Buddhist beads in his hands, and followed a few lamas.
The monks all chanted sutras and prayed.
The next person who appeared was the chilling master Lianzhu Zen Master. He also walked to the high platform, sat down cross-legged, and chanted sutras with Master Panzhi.
Feng Li watched for a while and was very puzzled, so he turned back and asked Chen Xuanyi, what on earth are these people doing?
Chen Xuanyi didn't understand, he just shook his head and said to continue reading.
It was the first time for us to observe the rainbow transformation ceremony. We did not understand many of the scenes in the ceremony. In addition, we could only stay in this small room, so we missed many steps of the ceremony. We only saw that as time went by, step by step
More and more monks come to the high platform to chant sutras.
But in the face of the chants of many monks and the body covered in yellow, some changes that we couldn't understand quickly appeared.
First, a corner of the yellow cloth was lifted, and then, the old lama, who had been dead for a long time, sat up stiffly. As if a new soul had been injected into him, he actually put his hands together and sat cross-legged on the ground.
This scene shocked us so much that Feng Li said with a trembling voice, "What's going on? Why did the lama's body sit up again and come back to life? How is this possible?"
I was also surprised, showing an expression that I had never seen in the world.
Seeing us like this, Chen Xuanyi shook his head and explained, "This is not a resurrection from the dead, but a brief recovery from the body of the great eminent monk who absorbed a lot of natural energy before he became a monk. He is indeed dead.
"
After listening, Feng Li and I stopped asking.
In fact, judging from my Qi field induction, this person is indeed dead.
There were half a hundred people who came to watch the ceremony this time, but the venue was not noisy. Except for the chanting of sutras, there was no noise at all. All the lamas who came to watch the ceremony, under the guidance of the leading monks, each found a futon and sat down.
The sutra banner was put down, and everyone sat cross-legged in front of Master Tongshan's body and began to sing sutras.
The chanting of this sutra is continuous, one wave higher than the other. Countless chanting sounds circle the beams, and occasionally there is the sound of Buddhist instruments, which is particularly solemn and makes people admire and want to fall on the ground and worship.
The sound of Zen chanting continued for more than an hour. The lamas sitting there, young and old, were all masters of chanting sutras and chanting Zen, including Ajiang, who was familiar with us.
He also clasped his hands together, looking pious.
This went on for a long time, and when we all got a little tired, in full view of everyone, the lifeless body actually moved again.
Only this time, the situation is different.
In my Qingsense induction, a strange rainbow ring formed around the body, like an aura, which was gradually dissipating. All the dirt on the body, including the body, fell to the ground. The entire life magnetic field of the body suddenly disappeared.
Becoming smooth, bright and sparkling.
Then the corpse opened its eyes. Their eyes were empty and unfocused, but their expression was half-smiling.
I saw him turning his neck, as if looking at his disciples, at the many monks who came to watch the ceremony, and at me hiding in the corner.
I came into contact with his eyes, which were a vast starry sky, like the most beautiful mist, deep and empty.
Then the center of the entire venue changed. With the body of Master Tongshan as the center, a faint seven-color rainbow light was generated. This rainbow light spread quietly and enveloped his whole body, as if forming a huge and unparalleled true Buddha. The light and shadow
The shape is moving and constantly swallowing and swallowing.
I was gradually stunned and immersed in it, completely unable to extricate myself. The many monks who were watching the ceremony also became excited and excited because of the appearance of the rainbow light.
Around that body, more Buddha's light is slowly blooming. In the process, a magnificent power that seems to be able to penetrate the void and attract the mortal world is also slowly manifesting itself in the form of rainbow light.
"Is this how it behaves when it transforms into a rainbow?"
Feng Li and I were both stunned. We felt something in our hearts, but we couldn't describe it. We just felt that our entire consciousness was becoming brighter and clearer with the appearance of the rainbow light. We seemed to have some enlightenment in our hearts, but we could never express it.
At this time, the sound of chanting mantras became louder, and the sound waves in the air were already transmitting, making a buzzing sound, and finally turned into the same resonance, causing the air to vibrate at high frequencies.
I calmed my hands and listened to the wonderful sounds of Buddhism in my ears. I was immersed in it unconsciously, and then I heard Feng Li whisper, "Look, the body is actually burning!"
Indeed, after being baptized by Buddhist scriptures thousands of times, Master Tongshan's body has begun to bathe in fire.
This kind of fire seemed to spread slowly from his body, burning while emitting invisible rainbow light. As the rainbow light continued to be projected into the sky, the body shrank smaller and smaller, as if it had been taken to the nine heavens.
In the empty space outside.
However, just when everyone was intently watching to see where these rainbow lights would go, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly in the viewing venue, and then, a gray figure rushed in awkwardly.
He came in and caught everyone's attention.
It's Liu Zhen!
This Maoshan law enforcement elder had a disorderly aura, a dark face, and looked extremely slovenly. He also suffered many injuries on his shoulders and back, and his hair looked very messy.
He rushed into the venue quickly and shouted at the monks on the high platform, "No, stop, stop..."
The originally long chanting sound soon came to a standstill, and many lamas looked at Liu Zhen in surprise. Among them, Master Lianzhu had the biggest reaction. He stopped chanting, jumped up from the futon, and spoke harshly to Elder Liu Zhen.
He scolded, "It's you again. You stole the Panchan relic the day before yesterday, and today you come to disturb the Red Flower Conference. What's your intention?"
