Chapter 738: Cultivating Mixin

!!!

There are many branches and leaves in Maoshan Mountain, but it is mainly under the Shangqing Gate, and no one has counted them one by one as for how many branches are inherited under the Shangqing Gate. Longhu Mountain is the descendant of the Zhang family, and the world is a family, and it is true and fake. As for the primitive religion of Gesoshan Mountain, it was inherited from Ge Xuan, the ancestor of the Daomen Lingbao Taoist School, and later Ge Hong carried it forward and formed the famous Ge Jiadao of Daomen.

In this era, Gejiadao is far inferior to Shangqing and Zhengyi, and it is famous for the magic medicine gate that has a foundation in the Southern Tang Dynasty, and it is said that it has completely inherited the key techniques of the Gesoshan Daomen.

Nan Fenghan didn't care about these things, because strictly speaking, the branch they moved to Paradise Island overseas was still under the Shangqing Sect at the beginning. I don't know how many generations have passed, but I have long been excluded from the righteous path.

However, there are many sects of Buddhism, and since the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, eight major sects have been formed. There are three treatises (Dharma Nature Sect), Dharma Xiang Sect (Yoga Sect), Tiantai Sect, Huayan Sect (Xianshou Sect), Zen Buddhism, Pure Land Sect, Vinaya Sect, and Shingon Buddhism (Tantra).

Buddhism is a blind practice, and there are many practitioners, but because each recipient has a different level of understanding, as well as the different times in which they live and the different environments in which they live, it is natural that their views on the Dharma will be completely different from person to person.

Later generations have the distinction between the Buddhist sects: dense and rich, Zen and poor, convenient and pure, and only knowledge, patience and emptiness. The traditional Huayan self-cultivation law, the righteous organization of the Tiantai sect.

Nan Fenghan, the founder of Buddhism, is well known, but only Zen Buddhism can flourish in the end. Although Buddhism does not hinder external objects, after all, it still needs to spread the Dharma in the human world. However, there is only one class of Zen Buddhism in the south, and there are many monks in the late Tang Dynasty in the previous dynasty.

It is said that during his lifetime, he had sought the Dharma in the world, and finally became an Arhat in the famous domain, and finally preached in Shaozhou, Lingnan.

Because Liu Yanzun, the emperor of Gaozu of the Southern Han Dynasty, was regarded as Kuang Zhen Arhat, Master Wen Yan and his master Master Zhisheng Luohan Rumin were collectively called the Zen Gate Double Sage. He also became one of the most prestigious great masters of Buddhism since the end of the Tang Dynasty.

This Master Wen Yan first visited the Master of the Muzhou Dao, who was revered as Chen Zunsu's Master of the Dao Trail from a famous family, and studied under the Master of Huangpi Xiyun on the Matsu Road of Nanyue, which is the real mantle of Nanchuan Zen Buddhism.

Master Dao is a monk in the history of Zen, and there are many Buddhas in the Buddhist family. Master Wen Yan enlightened and preached under him, and was introduced by him as a Buddhist genius. Later, he recommended him to meet Master Xuefeng Yicun, which is another great virtue in the history of Buddhism that deserves to be written.

Master Wen Yan preached under the master of the Tao, but he obtained the Tao under the master of Xuefeng Yicun, and then established the Yunmen Sect, which is also the thought of Xuefeng, which is worthy of deep thought in the history of Buddhism. Because he later joined Master Ganfeng in Yuezhou, Master Lingshu Rumin.

This Master Rumin is also a rare great virtue in the late Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty, and it is another lineage of Southern Zen Buddhism. He studied under the disciple of Baizhang Huaihai, Master Changqing Daan, he had been in Lingnan for more than 40 years, in Buddhism to be known for his solitary Taoism, is the most respected elder of the local Confucian doctors in Lingnan, and the Southern Han Dynasty of Lingnan respected as the holy Arhat.

Returning to the seat of Master Rumin, it didn't take long for the master to pass away, and Master Wen Yan naturally inherited the mantle. Liu Yan, the emperor of Gaozu of the Southern Han Dynasty, listened to his great name, admired the master Taoism and asked the master to say the law, and Master Wen Yan taught the Dahong Dharma in Lingnan since then.

Zen Buddhism has always been poor, and most of the practitioners are thatched on top, and the stone caves live in Buddha. Emperor Gaozu did a great thing, in the name of the royal family, built the largest and most luxurious Zen temple for Master Wen Yan. He also personally gave the plaque: "Guangtai Zen Temple", and since then the world's Buddhist scholars have come to the wind.

Master Wen Yan founded the Yunmen Sect in Shaozhou, magnificently magnificently Zen Gate Xuefeng Zen Method, and was respected by Buddhism all over the world. Because of his propagation of the Dharma, he not only greatly repaired and restored the Nanhua Temple, the ancestral court of Zen Buddhism, but also made the Central Plains look at Lingnan with admiration, and since then the concept of Lingnan has changed.

He was good at teaching the Dharma, and sat in the Southern Han Dynasty for seven years, and then set the tower in Guangtai Monastery with a golden body. At this time, the Lingnan court was already in the hands of Zhongzong Liu Sheng, and the emperor was like Emperor Gaozu, who especially respected the master's Dharma lineage and Buddhism. The imperial court gave its pagoda courtyard as "Ruiyun" and the pagoda as "Baoguang".

There are tens of thousands of disciples under the seat of Master Shi, among which there are 77 people who have inherited the quotations of the door, and it is said that there are as many as 77 people, and the Buddhism can be extended to legends in the previous and subsequent generations. In the Buddhist masterpiece "Jingdelu", there are also 61 people who have the biographies of the masters, so at this time the Buddhism in the world can be said to have reached the highest level of respect for the masters.

Therefore, at this time, there are still words in the world: the son of Yunmen, the general of Linji.

The disciples of the Buddhist family come from under the cloud gate, this signboard is not small, if it is a person who has a chance to quote, it is also pushed by the mountain gate as a venerable. Practitioners naturally respect those who have attained enlightenment, and it can be said that the phrase "attainer is a teacher" can be said to be vividly exerted.

When Nan Fenghan returned to seclusion, Master Wen Yan was still famous, and Nan Fenghan did not have much of an impression. Although I felt it in my heart, I didn't care too much. Later, although he went into hiding overseas, it was also out of helplessness, and he was driven by the same lineage.

However, how can this Nan Fenghan be the kind of person who is willing to be lonely, and naturally he will do everything possible to find out the news of the Central Plains, in preparation for his resurgence. Naturally, I heard all kinds of characters rising in the Central Plains one after another, and Taoism and Buddhism had their own merits. Since then, I have also heard the name of many Buddhist monks, among which Buddhism naturally takes this Wenyan master as the most.

Originally, with his thoughts, he only waited for himself to re-enter the Central Plains, and he must visit this famous monk in the Central Plains. It's a pity that he was invited by Zhang Wenbiao to sit in Chudi when he went out of the rivers and lakes again, but the master had already sat down, and he naturally sighed in his heart.

However, when I suddenly heard the identity of this monk, he was actually a disciple of Master Wen Yan, and I was a little surprised in my heart. Seeing that he exuded a mysterious feeling all over his body, and saw that the whole person was hazy and unreal, the recognition of the master in his heart was even more.

"It turned out to be a senior monk under the Matsu Nanyue line, and it is said that Kuang Zhen Arhat is profound, and his disciples are all over the Central Plains. Although a certain family met the master for the first time, they had long admired the master. It is said that the master has served the Arhats for nearly 20 years, and today he saw that it was indeed true, and His Holiness was indeed a person who had attained enlightenment! Qin Zhuang's face did not change, but his eyes were still looking at the golden forty-eight knots in front of him, seeing that although it kept swallowing, there was no change, and he couldn't help but quietly raise his head and greet him.
