No Bodhi tree, nor stand mirror.

There is nothing there, so where is the dust?

This Bodhi gatha, to a certain extent, is very similar to the previous Wuxiang gatha. However, the artistic conception is completely different.

If the previous description of the Wuxiang gatha profoundly depicts the essence of a monk cultivating Buddhism, then this Bodhi gatha has completely completed transformation and sublimation to this extent.

As soon as the Bodhisattva verse came out, the water and land Dharma gathering fell into silence. It was just twenty words, and countless monks were fascinated by it.

Vaguely, it seems that I have something in my heart, but after searching carefully, I don't know what I have found. This feeling is mysterious and mysterious.

"There is nothing in the first place? Where is the dust? Has the holy monk Xuanzang already achieved such a transcendent state of mind? He is only a young man, but he has already reached such a state. Is he really worthy of being the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva?", 1,200 Monks

Among them, a senior monk wearing cassocks and a white beard looked at the young monk on the stage with admiration and admiration, and was sincerely impressed.

"Amitabha, that non-appearance verse was already a treasured poem in Buddhism back then, but when this Bodhi verse came out today, it eclipsed even the non-appearance verse. This is really the most famous verse in Buddhism for all eternity." In the audience, the holy monk Long Hai heard this.

Bodhisattva, my heart is filled with joy and admiration.

Such Zen words, even I, who is also called a holy monk, cannot do it. I am not as good as him.

"Harvest, this is really a big harvest..." Among the countless people watching, some old men looked happy.

The purpose of this Water and Land Dharma Association was to listen to Master Xuanzang's lecture on Buddhism and see what the holy monk's opinions were. However, I didn't expect that he was just sitting on the stage and just chanting sutras, without any opinions or ideas of his own.

He was very disappointed at first, but now after hearing this Bodhi verse, he felt that the trip was worthwhile.

Even, in the old man's view, the holy monk Xuanzang just chanted sutras before, which seemed to be very profound.

Could it be that everyone has a different understanding of the scriptures, so the holy monk uses this method to remind all living beings that they need to understand by themselves? Otherwise, with the Buddha nature of the holy monk, why not express his own opinions and insights?

?

Thinking about it this way, the holy monk really had good intentions.

…

The leprosy monk transformed by Guanyin also looked at the river in amazement. It has to be said that even after living for thousands of years, the original phaseless verse was just for appreciation. But as soon as the Bodhi verse came out,

Even Guanyin found it amazing.

At the same time, I secretly sighed in my heart, is he worthy of being the incarnation of Jin Chanzi? Even though he has been reincarnated and has no memory of thousands of years, he still has such wisdom.

Originally, Guanyin's plan was to use the red thread of Yue Lao to make Xuanzang and Gao Yang fall deeply in love, and then sacrifice her in order to gain a firm Zen heart and head westward. However, she did not expect that due to the wrong actions of Arhat who subdued the Dragon, he would

Jiang Liu may be aware of Buddhism's secret actions.

That's why Guanyin tested it here to see what his attitude was towards Buddhism. Now it seems that his understanding of Buddhism has become more and more profound.

However, although he was amazed by this Bodhi verse in his heart, Guanyin would not forget his purpose.

As soon as the Bodhisattva verse came out, the leprosy monk laughed loudly: "Hahaha, so this is just the so-called holy monk of the Tang Dynasty? I think it's nothing more than that."

"Bold monk! How dare you act wild here and mock the holy monk!", a poem with no characteristics, impressed everyone. Now when they heard that the leprosy monk actually uttered sarcastic words, the crowd was naturally excited.

"Hahaha? How can I be so wild? As a holy monk of the Tang Dynasty, although he talks about Buddhism in a subtle way, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than Hinayana Buddhism. How can he become a holy monk like this?" The leprosy monk faced the accusations of thousands of people.

But he didn't show any fear, instead he argued loudly.

"Then I dare to ask, since you keep saying that what Xuanzang said is only Hinayana Buddhism, then what is Hinayana Buddhism and what is Mahayana Buddhism?" As Monk Leidi finished his words, at the Dharma Assembly, Holy Monk Longhai stood up and asked.

road.

"Cultivation of the body and self-interest, understanding of the spirit and nature, this is Hinayana Buddhism." After the leprosy monk glanced at all the people present, his eyes finally fell on Jiang Liu and he answered.

After a slight pause, he continued: "Saving the world and benefiting others, saving all sentient beings from the sea of ​​suffering, and saving all sentient beings on the other side, this is the Mahayana Buddhism."

"Holy Monk Xuanzang, this Mahayana Buddhism is hidden in the Great Thunder Sound Temple in the West, where our Buddha Tathagata is. Are you willing to go to all the trouble to get this Mahayana Buddhism Tripitaka Sutra for the sake of the people of this world?".

"Can I say I don't want to?" Hearing this, Jiang Liu rolled his eyes secretly.

Of course, this is just a secret in my heart. Buddhism has been preparing for this day for so long, and has made countless preparations. On the surface, it is asking itself, but in fact, is there any room for rejection?

"Amitabha, the poor monk is willing to go." Jiang Liu stood up and replied with a righteous look. Since he had no choice, he might as well act more impassioned.

Li Shimin stood aside, not saying a word, but watching quietly. When the leprosy monk jumped out, he recognized that this was the person who had given him the cassock and Zen staff yesterday.

At this moment, when he heard him talk about obtaining scriptures from the Western Heaven, Li Shimin understood in his heart. So, is this the purpose of Buddhism?

"Amitabha, Xuanzang, you are very good..." Guanyin was obviously very satisfied with Jiang Liu's answer. His figure flashed and transformed into his true form, sitting on the lotus platform. The Buddha's light was bright and soft.

He nodded to Jiang Liu happily.

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva has descended to earth!".

Seeing Guanyin reveal her true nature, the 1,200 monks at the Land and Water Dharma Assembly knelt down excitedly and worshiped.

The people nearby who came to watch were also kowtowing as if they were pounding garlic.

"Yesterday, I, from the hands of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty, presented you with a brocade cassock and a nine-ring tin staff. Those who wear this cassock will not fall into reincarnation, and those who hold this tin staff will not be harmed. However, they will go to the Western Heaven, a hundred and eighty thousand miles away.

There are dangerous mountains and rivers along the way, and there are countless wolves, worms, tigers and leopards. Going to the West requires great wisdom, great perseverance and a fearless spirit. Are you willing to go?" Sitting on the lotus platform, Guanyin's face was full of compassion and peace.

The color and Zen sound are faint.

"Disciple is willing".

"Amitabha, this is very good. When you complete your journey to the west, I will definitely give you the golden body and the enlightenment."

The matter was very simple. At this point, Guanyin Bodhisattva asked him to go to the West to obtain scriptures. He had no room to refuse. After agreeing, Guanyin Bodhisattva naturally encouraged him.

His mission of guiding Xuanzang to the west was now completed. Without any intention of staying any longer, Guanyin Bodhisattva turned around and prepared to leave.

"Bodhisattva, wait..." However, looking at Guanyin Bodhisattva turning away, Jiang Liu couldn't help but shout.

After a pause, Guanyin hung in the air and looked towards Jiangliu: "Xuan Zang, what else can you do?".

"I would like to ask, Bodhisattva, are you here alone? Didn't you bring anyone else with you?" After a moment's hesitation, Jiang Liu couldn't help but ask about Gao Yang's situation.

Although I feel that Buddhism currently has no reason to attack Gao Yang, I still feel uneasy without seeing her condition with my own eyes.

Guanyin Bodhisattva naturally understood what Jiang Liu's words meant and replied: "Amitabha, this trip is indeed only for me. However, before this trip, someone asked me to tell you something. When you arrive at Lingshan Mountain,

, there will be a fast meal waiting for you."

After saying these words, Guanyin Bodhisattva transformed into a ray of Buddha light and fled away.

In response to this answer, Jiang Liu showed a soft smile on his face.

He certainly remembered that when he and Gao Yang lived in seclusion, they always cooked by themselves. She felt guilty, and she had made a promise to herself when she was dying of poisoning: If there is another life, I would like to cook for you.
