Chapter 863: Nothing Stirs Up Dust
"That's right!"
Lu Wei also chimed in: "Is there any inevitable connection between your story and epiphany?" ”
Shen Yun looked at me with a wise face, and said with a light smile: "Yiyang, if I'm not mistaken, the essence of the whole allusion should be among the two Buddha poems, which is the most wonderful part, but you deliberately hid it, didn't you?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Zhang Xian also hurriedly asked: "Yiyang, you can tell me, when Shenxiu and Huineng competed, what kind of Buddha verses did they write, why did Huineng become the sixth ancestor in the end, but Shenxiu was left out in the cold?" ”
"Nope."
Hearing this, I hurriedly waved my hand and said: "In fact, Shenxiu was not left out in the cold, although the fifth ancestor passed his mantle to Huineng in the middle of the night, but in fact, Shenxiu was also reused by the king of the Tang Dynasty in the end, and at its peak, he even held the position of the national teacher!" ”
"At that time, the Buddha made by Shenxiu was like this."
"The heart is like a Bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror,"
"Always wipe diligently, don't cause dust."
"Huh......"
Ziming frowned and puzzled: "This Shenxiu writes very good Buddha verses, comparing his heart to a Bodhi tree, this is already a very high attainment, right?" ”
"Yes."
I nodded approvingly: "Zen Master Shenxiu has always advocated the practice of gradual enlightenment, he compares his body to a Bodhi tree, his mind is more mirrored, he wipes diligently every day, and always maintains a true heart, this way of practice I actually agree with very much." ”
"But the next thing I'm going to talk about is the Buddhist poem written by Hui Neng, I believe that as soon as you say it, everyone must have heard of it."
"What is it?" Except for the old monk, everyone else asked in unison.
Under the gaze of everyone at the scene, I recited with a calm face.
"Bodhi has no tree, and the mirror is not a platform"
"There is nothing in the first place, where is the dust"
Wow......
When the crowd heard me say this Buddha's poem, they immediately burst into an uproar.
Lu Wei, in particular, put his arms around my shoulders in an exaggerated manner, and said in disbelief: "It turns out that this famous Buddha poem is what the Sixth Patriarch Hui can say?" ”
"Then it's no wonder that he can get the mantle of the Fifth Ancestor Hongren Master, the realm is indeed high!"
"That's right, his way of thinking is called an epiphany by later generations!" I nodded yes without thinking.
Zhang Xian saw that I said two Buddhist poems in a row, it was like reciting them backwards, and he couldn't help but give me a thumbs up and praised: "Yiyang is really erudite and talented, this extremely rare allusion, I can't imagine that Yiyang can remember it clearly, it is really admirable." ”
"It's over."
I nodded at him calmly, but in my heart I felt that it was good, and it seemed that it was good to read more.
While we were all discussing, a little novice came briskly from the forest path in front of him, and immediately shouted in his crisp voice: "Abbot, Master Huiwu has asked these laymen to come over and talk about it. ”
"Okay, I see."
The old monk nodded calmly and said with a light smile: "Lay people, the Huiwu Zen Master of this temple wants to invite you to go to the meditation room for a while, I wonder if you can appreciate the light?" ”
"Wisdom?
I muttered the name in my mouth, and at the same time moved my gaze to Lu Wei.
Previously, I learned from Lu Wei's phone call with his father that he was familiar with the master of Jing'an Temple, so I wanted to learn some news about Huiwu from his mouth.
But disappointingly, Lu Wei shook his head blankly under my gaze, obviously ignorant of this wisdom.
The old monk who was called the abbot saw my different complexion, and couldn't help but stand aside and explain: "Zen Master Huiwu is a senior monk in our temple, because he has been practicing in the temple and never meets with pilgrims outside, so in the entire Shanhai City, there are no more than five people who know Master Huiwu. ”
"The last time he met was back in the winter fifty years ago, and I haven't seen Master Huiwu for many years!"
"Won't it?"
Lu Wei asked with some doubts: "I heard Xiao Shami call you the abbot, I think you should be the most respected person in this temple, but with your identity, you haven't seen Master Huiwu for a few years, isn't this too outrageous?" ”
"Not outrageous.
The abbot replied disapprenously: "Strictly speaking, Zen Master Huiwu is not a monk of this temple, so he is not under my control, he just borrows our dojo to practice, so usually everyone will not bother him, only when he commands, we will go to pay homage to him." ”
After the abbot finished speaking, I probably had a clue.
If my prediction is correct, this so-called Master of Wisdom is very likely to be Shenlong!
Otherwise, with the identity of the old monk in front of him as the master of a temple, it is impossible to have such respect for a monk who walks in the square.
After reading it, I hurriedly nodded at the abbot master and said, "Since Master Huiwu has an invitation, then please ask the abbot to lead the way." ”
"Come with me."
The abbot glanced at the little novice beside him, and an old man and a young man led everyone through the forest of steles and stupas in Jing'an Temple, and came to a meditation hall where they sat quietly.
The old monk stopped in front of the meditation hall, turned around and stared at everyone for a while, and reminded: "The meditation hall behind is the practice hall of Master Huiwu. ”
"At noon, I will instruct the novices to bring you the food of our temple, and I apologize for any neglect."
After finishing speaking, he smiled meaningfully at me, turned around and walked towards the Daxiong Hall in front of him.
After the figure of the abbot master was completely hidden in the forest path, Xiao Shami gestured to all of us and reminded in a childish voice: "A few donors, please come with me." ”
After saying that, he was ready to take a step inside.
Seeing this, I hurriedly stopped: "Little master, please wait. ”
Seeing that I looked like I was about to speak, the little novice asked, "I don't know what else the donor has to say?" ”
"Oh, I don't dare to take orders, but I have the same question, and I want to ask the little master."
"Just ask." The little novice stood patiently and looked at me.
After making eye contact with his pure gaze, I hurriedly smiled and asked, "I don't know where this Master of Wisdom is sacred?" ”
"I don't know."
Xiao Shami shook his head and replied innocently: "Since I was five years old, I have been serving Master Huiwu in this secluded meditation hall for four years now, but I don't know much about the origin of Master Huiwu. ”
