Chapter 226, Demon Buddha Dao
The 1,000 torii gates are a spectacular view of the Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, and the tens of thousands of torii gates stretch for miles to the summit shrine, forming a spectacular torii tunnel.
In anime, it is common to see a crimson tunnel made up of torii gates.
The splendid torii tunnel has a strange and spectacular feeling of magic and sacredness.
The torii gate is the barrier of the shrine, and it also means the gate, the dividing point between this world and the realm of the gods.
The shrine of the Sunset family has no gods, and Kikyo didn't think about such a thing.
Torii gates are not something that can be built casually.
In the case of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, the god of Inari is the god of agriculture and harvest, and is also regarded as the god of business prosperity.
Those who have money build large torii gates, and those who don't have money build small torii gates, so two tunnels are formed.
The torii gate also has the time and name of the person who made the vow written in black letters.
It's a special ritual.
To put it simply, it is to give money that is too vulgar, and to bribe the gods in a clear and unconventional way.
It's hard to say whether it's useful or not, but the purpose of the literati's negotiations is now achieved, and there is nothing wrong with the traditional way of repaying vows, even the bellflower can't say much else.
And this way, for the bellflower, there is no problem, there is no such thing as climbing friendship, no matter how much you give in vain.
In the quiet living room, after seating, Mimiko brought tea.
There is a sense of déjà vu that calls the little girl.,With a crimson snow-white witch dress.,It's very shrine-like.。
Ling sat next to Kikyo and looked at Xiao Zhengtai Lu Sheng curiously.
Treating people and things is also the content of Ling's practice, and it is very suitable to teach by word and deed, so Kikyo deliberately sent Killing Pill to see the door.
Picking up the tea and gently sipping it to remove the smell of wine in his mouth, Kikyo looked at the fat man.
The fat man with a kind smile on his face was sitting on his lap, looking like an ordinary middle-aged member on the street.
The slippery scoop is sitting in the old god's place, and it is not taboo to listen to things, a familiar picture.
Huang Quan sat in the corner with his sword in his hand, his eyes looking over intentionally or unintentionally.
Who is this guy, in the information of the bellflower, there is no information about this, after thinking about it, he got straight to the point and said: "Report your name." ”
The fat man smiled kindly and said, "Lord Witch, Jiu Yang, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Lotus Sect of the Lower Holy Gate, Lin Wu." ”
The surname Lin is a single surname among Japanese surnames, which does not mean that he is Han Chinese.
This kind of name is known as a kana as soon as you hear it in China, but in Japan, it may be a real name.
Kikyo asked with some confusion, "Japanese?" ”
I would ask like this, although this guy looks like a Japanese, but there is no such sect as the Holy Gate in Japan.
There is a saying about the Holy Gate, which is called the Gate of the Holy Dao, and the disciples of the saints, that is, the disciples of Confucius.
The other is the self-proclaimed Holy Gate.
The two sects of the six demon gates.
It is also the evolution of the hundred schools of thought.
Dao and demons have the same origin, in the beginning, there was no demon, and when someone with a heart labeled it, the demon was born.
The fat man in front of him, whose breath is at the threshold of A, has reached the normal limit of human beings for human beings, close to non-human.
Kikyo couldn't help but look at the slippery scoop, his face was a little confused, and the native monster said that he had never heard of this kind of sect.
And the fat man Lin Wu looked at the bellflower a little hidden and playful.
The family has already reported itself, and it depends on the other party's ability whether you know it or not.
"Miko-sama, I'm a real Japanese."
Forget your ancestors.
Kikyo squints, whatever the reason for saying so, the first impression is extremely poor.
"Demon Gate remnant, who gave you the courage to talk to me like this!"
Kikyo said coldly with a cool look in his eyes.
The fat man Lin Wu's face was full, and he changed his face and said respectfully: "Don't dare, my lord, there is no offense in the future." ”
It's been called a demon for a long time, and I think I'm a demon.
The current demon gate can't be determined, but in the impression of the bellflower, it's not a good thing.
Dusty memories came to mind.
When I walked the Warring States period before my death, I saw and heard a lot, but most of them were unknown.
First, Buddhism and monks are rampant.
In its heyday, there were many monks and soldiers who controlled society, and the scene that was played out in China was also played out in Japan, which is across the sea.
Campaign to exterminate Buddha.
The misfortune of the three martial arts and one sect, the three martial arts and one sect are, the Northern Wei Emperor Taiwu destroyed the Buddha, the Northern Zhou Emperor Wu Emperor destroyed the Buddha, the Tang Wuzong destroyed the Buddha, and Zhou Shizong also carried out a large-scale campaign to exterminate the Buddha after the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period.
In Japan, one is the burning of Honganji Temple by the sixth heavenly demon king, Oda Nobunaga, and the second is the Meiji Restoration, after the reform, the gods and Buddhas were separated.
Previously, Buddhism and Shinto in Japan were one, or Shintoism was attached to Buddhism, and Buddhism was the state religion of Japan.
As a result, Buddhism in Japan has developed in a way that distinguishes it from other countries.
Defend the country.
It's better to say that it's a stealing country.
Buddhism, as a modern ideology and culture, was introduced to Japan in China, and after educating the Japanese people, who were still barbarians at the time, it evolved into Japanese Buddhism, which is inseparable from Chinese Buddhism, and during the Tang Dynasty, its exchanges were extremely frequent.
A large number of upper-class aristocrats converted to Buddhism, which caused a strange phenomenon later, and Buddhism participated in politics.
At the end of the Warring States Period, it reached its peak, and the Mt. Hiei Tiantai Sect, one of the three major spiritual fields in Japan, was the main mountain of Buddhism in the world during the Warring States Period.
It is from this that the idea of protecting the country comes from.
At this time, the world was divided, the war continued, the bellflower was in that era, witnessed the cruelty of the times, a group of monks who recited the scriptures of great compassion, gathered armed forces, formed monks, and became the princes who occupied one side.
Until after the death of Kikyo, he was beaten half to death by the sixth day demon king Oda Nobunaga, and he was honest.
To put it simply, the monk that Kikyo met, also known as the mage, indiscriminately, dared to shoot at the witch like Kikyo, and deliberately killed, and his arrogance and rampant posture can be seen in general.
But the mouth is reciting Amitabha Buddha for the benefit of the world, which is simply ridiculous.
What's even more strange is that in order to meet the needs of the Japanese aristocracy who escaped into the empty door due to political refuge, they learned the teachings of Chinese Buddhism, but there was no abstinence and abstinence.
It is even more normal to raise female dependents in the courtyard.
Later, unlike the improved and localized original version introduced from China, Japan formed a new style of Buddhism with its characteristics.
The most amazing thing is that Buddhism and Confucianism are combined.
The content inside is huge, and it won't be clear for a while.
Buddhism has made an indestructible contribution to the development of Japan, but there are some things that cannot be overshadowed.
The same thing is true in China.
The first is the contention between Taoism and Buddha, and the struggle is for the right to speak in the world.
And the origin of the Heavenly Lotus Sect, or the Six Paths of the Demon Sect, is very simple.
During the Wu Zetian period, Buddhism flourished, and as the loser of this battle, it was normal for Japanese Buddhist scholars to travel overseas when they came to study in the Tang Dynasty.
And the Tenren Sect had to make Kikyo think of another Nichiren Sect.
The founder of the evil Buddha is a Buddhist disciple who tries his best to tie up with the upper elite.
Nichiren Venerable is very interesting.
'Reciting the Buddha is the karma of the boundless hell, Zen Buddhism is the work of the heavenly demons, the mantra is the evil law of the country, and the Vinaya is the delusion of the national thief. ’
Who is the Buddha and who is the demon?
However, Nichiren then said that only by believing in him can we attain the supreme Dafa and become a Buddha and attain supreme bliss.
And in the eyes of Kikyo, the era of the Warring States.
Demons are rampant, the people are struggling to make a living, no one is doing anything, the samurai are busy fighting for the lords, and they are dying every day, Buddha? is busy organizing monks and soldiers to save the world.
When Kikyo guarded the Jade of the Four Souls alone, did anyone help her?
Eighteen-year-old girl is lonely all day long with spring and summer as a companion, hard heart to kill demons, famous all over the world, but has anyone ever seen the village in the girl's silent passing years?
At that time, Kikyo didn't know how to save the world, the world was peaceful, so he could only silently do what he could do and keep one side safe.
What are these guys doing?
Busy killing.
Samurai fought with samurai, fought with monks, and monks and monks argued about who was the authentic Mahayana because of theories and doctrines, and were busy fighting in the nest.
There is no need to talk about this kind of thing, the road is your own choice, and the way of life of others, Kikyo can't interfere.
But in the present world, the influence of Buddhism has declined sharply, and it is not in that era of ignorance, and it is imperative to change its face.
The Soka Gakkai, also known as the Soka Society for Education.
It was Nichiren Buddhism that had been transformed.
Its main theme is profit, goodness, and beauty, and it believes that the goal of life is the pursuit of happiness.
Something that looks beautiful is also very positive, in short, it is the pursuit of happiness, to be a true, kind and beautiful person, and happiness will naturally come.
No problem.
But when everything reaches the limit, it is supernormal and abnormal.
In terms of simple logic, Kikyo does not think that a saint-like character who has reached the limit of truth, goodness and beauty can be happy, and such a saint is essentially a mortal.
As God says, when someone hits you on the left cheek, smile and stick out the right cheek and hit it again.
In China, the Nichiren sect has a different face.
After the makeover, it is called ***.
In 1995, it officially spread through network information technology to the whole country like a viral plague.
The main thrust is, *****.
From '95 to '99, the traverser still had a deep impression in his memory, this organization, which was characterized as a cult, was active in a church less than 100 meters near his home.
Demon Cult!
It's amazing...
If the Tenren Sect has anything to do with the Nichiren Sect.
But this kind of thing, it's useless to ask, just in the case of the fat man in front of him claiming to be Japanese, the Demon Gate Tianlian Sect, which was transmitted to China, has been integrated into Japanese history, and has always been good at latent methods, quietly unknown, and manipulated the direction of society.
Kikyo looked at Lin Wu, who had a sincere face, and then looked at the Buddha beads on his wrist, and said, "Have you converted to Buddhism?" ”
Japanese monks can practice with their hair, shaving or not.
Lin Wu smiled, but he was also straightforward, and said: "What is a Buddha and what is a demon?" Buddha is a demon. ”
It's amazing.,This kind of thing can be done by the demon gate without taboos.,When you move to Japan.,Change your face and become a monk.。
Kikyo couldn't help but exclaim, "Good ability." ”
As the original old rival, Zhi Qin was introduced to Japan, and the witch inherited by the Yin and Yang family, Kikyo clapped his hands.
"The bellflower master is, it's really easy to see, and the witch who knows everything in the secret book of the master is really powerful." Lin Wu complimented.
The struggle has lasted for thousands of years, in a foreign land, and it continues...
Hearing this, the bellflower squinted.
