Chapter 329 Western education, all beings are equal
Sibuxiang, ridden by the Yuanshi Saint, slowly fell into the Western Pure Land.
Suddenly, blossoming lotus flowers bloomed from the pure land.
Countless Sanskrit chants sounded from the left and right.
The leader of the Western Sect, who looked sad, personally sat on a nine-grade golden lotus of merit and led all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas to greet him.
"Fellow Taoist, you are merciful!" the saint said, "But I have to work hard for you, Taoist, to come to my west and preach to all sentient beings!"
The sage from the First Yuan Dynasty bowed his head and returned the courtesy and said: "My fellow Taoist, your words are serious!"
"In the past thousand years, I have been busy with the Taoism of the human world and have no time to come to the West, but I have also heard about the Western Pure Land, where the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas taught and transformed all living beings in Xiniuhezhou, and passed down the Great Way of Equality and Compassion!"
"I am a poor Taoist, but today I am going to trouble fellow Taoists and all sentient beings in the West!"
In the past one thousand years, the teachings of explaining the orthodoxy in the human world have ended in failure.
Now, this is already a fact!
Facts have proved that this road will not work and will lead to a dead end.
Zongzhou has experienced 360,000 years, from prosperity to decline, and all kinds of lessons are vividly remembered.
The Yuanshi sage knew that something must be wrong.
He has also been introspecting and thinking about himself.
I will examine myself three times a day!
This is the virtue of a saint!
A saint will not shy away from failure.
Wrong is wrong!
If you are wrong, you must correct it!
Just change the direction!
Of course, the Tao remains unchanged, the Dao tradition remains unchanged, and the Dao fruit remains unchanged!
Therefore, when he came to the West, the Yuanshi Saint really wanted to understand this Western education.
Western education certainly has merit.
What's more, when the saints of the Yuan Dynasty rebelled by burning lamps, they also brought some of the Taoist ideas to the West.
The saint came today to see what the Western orthodoxy is like.
What can Ran Deng and others do in Xiniu Hezhou?
Of course the sage Jieying also knows this.
Saints plot against each other.
Ran Deng and others rebelled and defected to the West. No matter what purpose they had, what were their intentions?
For Westerners, everything is acceptable!
Because the West is barren and has no talents!
Only a hundred Bodhisattvas and Arhats can be born from one Hui Yuan in Xiniu Hezhou.
How can it be like looking at the continent in the south and China in the east? It is really a place with outstanding people, rich resources and natural treasures. Talents emerge in large numbers and are loved by heaven and earth?
Ran Deng, Ci Hang, Puxian and others are among the best.
Their arrival is nothing short of a great benefit to Western religions!
Moreover, this is also a back-up move.
Although Ran Deng and others rebelled against the sect, they did so with the tacit approval of the Saint of Chanjiao.
It may even be that the saint settled in the west.
In this way, Western teaching can create some affinity with Chan teaching.
It will be of great benefit to the future!
Of course, the saint Jieyin knew that the only way out for Western religion was to look to Buzhou in the south and to win in China in the east!
However, if Western religion wants to spread eastward, it will inevitably encounter the obstruction of the Taoist Three Purities!
Therefore, Western religion must suffer!
Therefore, people teach sages to turn into barbarians, and the two sages in the West endure it.
Although Ran Deng and others had no idea of their coming, the Second Saint of the West still welcomed them with open arms.
Even given great power and important responsibilities.
As soon as Ran Deng comes, he will be treated like a past Buddha!
Puxian, Cihang and others let them choose the place for their dojo.
Give all freedom!
This Huiyuan even let go of Xiniu Hezhou to these people.
On the one hand, the two saints sneaked into the Nine Netherworlds and plotted a bloody sea, while on the other hand, they secretly opened up the world of Three Thousand Whirlpools for the future.
As long as the orthodoxy flourishes, that's fine.
As long as the Tao fruit is ripe!
Don’t ask about the rest, don’t care about the rest.
The saint received the invitation and said: "Thanks to the respect of my Taoist friends, how can a poor Taoist dare to spoil the fun?"
"Fellow Taoists can see all kinds of sentient beings in Xiniu Hezhou!"
Saying this, the saint clapped his hands.
The eight heavenly dragon protectors sat down cross-legged and recited the Buddha's sutra.
One after another, Bodhisattvas sat on the lotus platform, took their seals and chanted sutras.
"Amitabha!" Hundreds of Bodhisattvas chanted the Buddha's praise.
They sang to each other and intertwined with each other.
"Fellow Taoist, please watch!" The saint was greeted and bowed.
The countless lotus flowers are intertwined in the pure land.
All kinds of Sanskrit chants resonate in one place.
Behind the saint's head, his merits manifest and shine in all directions.
"How good! How good!" Seeing this, all the Buddhas bowed and praised: "My Buddha is compassionate and sees the suffering of all sentient beings!"
As a result, countless auspicious rays of light enhanced each other.
In this pure land, you can see various places in Xiniu and Hezhou.
The Saint of Yuanshi quickly bowed his head and praised: "There are so many Taoist friends!"
Xiniu Hezhou is the foundation place of Western religion and the place where the Demon Ancestor died.
Generally, Western religions do not show it to others easily.
Because, Xiniu Hezhou is different from other regions.
The Demon Ancestor died here, his flesh and blood turned into the plains, and his muscles and bones turned into the mountains and canyons.
The blood of the Demon Ancestor flows in the rivers and permeates the mountains and rivers.
Therefore, Xiniu Hezhou is different from other states.
It has been barren, desolate, and a barren land since ancient times!
Under the influence of the Demon Ancestor, all living beings in Xiniu Hezhou also bear some characteristics of the Demon Ancestor.
The most important thing is that although the Demon Ancestor died, he will definitely be resurrected!
This is the number of days!
And once the Demon Ancestor Luohu is resurrected, he will swallow up the entire Xiniu Hezhou!
Therefore, for Western religions, the greatest terror is the resurrection of the Demon Ancestor.
This is also their biggest weakness!
With Rahu resurrected, the ambition of the two sages of the West has suddenly come to nothing. There will be no way to escape and we can only fight with him!
Therefore, the Second Sage of the West would not let anyone pry into the reality of Xiniu Hezhou.
In order to avoid being found where the remnant soul of Demon Ancestor Rahu is hiding, or where the embers are hiding.
In that case, a demonic disaster will occur in Hezhou, Xiniu.
Therefore, it was really a great courage to lead the saint and let the saint of Yuanshi have a look at the details of Xiniu Hezhou!
The saint who led the way is worthy of being the leader of the Western religion. He opened up the avenue of annihilation and invented the great wish for enlightenment.
The Yuanshi Saint would certainly not be polite.
Then he looked towards the place where the Buddha's light was shining, and saw everywhere in Hezhou, Xiniu.
I saw that in the vast land of Xiniu and Hezhou, there were Buddhist temples and temples everywhere.
In the temple, there are golden sculptures of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
Between the visits, the incense was flourishing.
The good men and women all knelt before the Buddha, chanted the sutra hundreds of times, and kowtowed thousands of times!
The Saint of Yuanshi just took a cursory look and couldn't help but praise: "It's really a good tradition and a good education!"
However, the sage summoned Xiniu Hezhou. There were also distinctions between top and bottom, strict hierarchy and orderly order.
Although all living beings are equal.
But this equality only existed before the Buddha statue.
Mortals, monks and monks can equally pray to the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas for their blessings.
The Buddhas and Bodhisattvas also allow sentient beings to kowtow a hundred times before their golden bodies, offer incense, copper, heavenly silver, and heavenly gold, and pray for the blessings of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
But once you leave the Buddha, it's a completely different scene.
But all things are of inferior quality, only Buddha has a high affinity!
Those who are loved by the Buddha, even if they are beggars, are higher than all living beings.
But if you are abandoned by the Buddha, even if you are a prince, you will be despised by others!
Seeing this scene, the Yuanshi sage kept praising: "How wonderful! How wonderful!"
A Taoist heart is already inspiring!
"If I had known this earlier, perhaps things in the world could turn around for the better!" the Yuanshi Sage said secretly in his heart.
