Chapter 503: Mount Meru
Chu Chen and Lin Yi were extremely fast, and while moving all the way to the west, they felt a rippling Buddhist breath in this vast Buddha land, and they were deeply immersed in it, unable to extricate themselves. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"The Great Buddha is merciful, the evil ghost Shura, the Buddha is coming, and he uses Mahayana Buddhism to sublimate this Western Regions, which is really the great mercy of the world!"
Chu Chen muttered to himself, on the earth, there are many stories about the Buddha, it is said that on the night of the full moon, he became a Buddha under the Bodhi tree, and then, he realized the Mahayana Buddhism and created sentient beings.
Ahead, a majestic mountain suddenly appeared, if the mountain was exhausted, but the willows and flowers were bright and another village, quite a feeling of seeing the blue sky through the clouds and mist, and it appeared very abruptly in the sight of Chu Chen and Lin Yi.
In an instant, Chu Chen stopped, and together with Lin Yi, he landed on the ground, staring at the majestic mountain in front of him.
I have to say that this mountain is very high, much higher than each of the one hundred and eight peaks of the Heavenly Spirit Academy, towering into the sky, and truly inserting itself into the heavenly dome.
Moreover, there is also a vast Dharma, sweeping the heavens and the earth, enveloping the entire mountain, the vastness is endless, and when people get closer, they are like a lonely boat facing the sea, and they deeply feel their insignificance.
While!
The bell shook lightly, the hollow valley rang, from the top of the mountain, shaking the nine heavens and clouds, and the Buddha's light bloomed, infiltrating into every inch of land in the Western Regions.
With such an aura and edifying the soul, Chu Chen estimated that even if he was a person who committed great crimes and was extremely vicious, if he lived here for a long time, he would probably be transcendent and sanctified, and he would be transformed into a compassionate heart.
"Is this Mount Meru?"
Chu Chen muttered to himself, looking at the towering mountain, he deeply felt his insignificance, like the difference between a mayfly and a big tree, insignificant.
You don't have to guess to know that this is Mount Meru, the supreme holy place in the minds of Buddhists in the Western Regions, for them, this is the Pure Land, this is the heaven.
"Mount Meru, it's finally here!"
Chu Chen's eyes showed joy, and his proximity to Mount Meru meant that he was closer to his way home, and according to the god of the realm, under the Bodhi tree, he would definitely be able to find some clues.
At this place, Chu Chen and Lin Yi had already landed on the ground, did not continue to fly, and climbed Mount Meru, they needed to be down-to-earth and walk step by step.
"Lin Yi, let's go, let's go up the mountain!"
Chu Chen put away his smile, his eyes were deep, like a vast starry sky, bottomless, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
And Lin Yi didn't have the slightest expression, and her mood was a little low, because she really didn't know how to deal with herself if Chu Chen left this world and returned to her hometown?
can see Chu Chen's eagerness to go home, so she will not obstruct it, on the contrary, she will do her best to help Chu Chen, probably, this is true love.
Mount Meru, full of ancient buildings, a wide stone staircase road, leading to the top of the mountain, there is no mountain gate, and on the staircase road, there are still many people who are advancing, all coming to visit the Buddha.
Chu Chen and Lin Yi joined the crowd and marched forward with everyone, with a reverent heart, not sad, not dry, not happy, not slow, but also happy, and their hearts were full of excitement.
I have to say that Mount Meru is very high, in Chu Chen's opinion, this is definitely higher than Mount Everest, but there is no snow on the top of the mountain, and there is no thin oxygen, even if it is the top of the mountain, it is also steaming and cloudy, full of sacredness and peace.
The stone steps are very long, and there is no end in sight, as if leading to the top of the sky, only people move tirelessly, day and night, tirelessly.
Chu Chen asked someone briefly and learned that most of the people who came here were mortals, a few warriors and monks, but they all had the same purpose, to pay homage to the Buddha.
The gate of Mount Meru is open, allowing anyone to enter this place, even if it is evil ghosts and demons, they will not refuse, of course, there will be no evil ghosts and demons coming here, because if you are not careful, you will be transformed and become a Buddhist believer.
After asking many people, Chu Chen got a very useful piece of news, the Bodhi tree was planted on the top of Mount Meru, behind the Mahavira Hall, completely open to everyone, and everyone was allowed to worship.
This news made Chu Chen ecstatic, originally thought that it might not be so easy to see the Bodhi tree, but now it seems that he has thought too much about it, and he can see it without any pressure.
The Bodhi tree, the most sacred thing in Buddhism, was originally owned by the Buddha Shakyamuni, it can be said that in Buddhism, this represents a kind of supremacy, so it will be worshiped and enshrined by so many people.
After half a month of hiking, Chu Chen finally reached the top of Mount Meru, where there are many buildings, monks can be seen everywhere, there are chanting, there are Buddhas, there are countless counts.
Chu Chen followed the crowd and entered the Buddhist holy land, the closer he got here, the more he could feel a vast breath of Buddhism, shaking the heavens and the earth, as if it had been transmitted across the ages, making people deafening and in a trance.
On the earth, Chu Chen has been to many ancient temples, Xiangji Temple, Famen Temple, Lantuo Temple, and Hanging Temple, and he has also visited the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas.
However, he had never felt the breath of the Buddha so truly, and he had never felt like this now, as if he was standing in front of the Buddha and receiving the bath of the Dharma.
Chu Chen did not look for the Bodhi tree for the first time, but visited the gods and Buddhas in many ancient halls in the holy places of Buddhism.
The Hall of the Heavenly King, the Hall of Arhats, the Hall of the Bodhisattva, the Hall of Vajra...... The pattern here is similar to that of many ancient temples on the earth, divided into multiple halls, each dedicated to different gods and Buddhas.
It took most of the day for Chu Chen to finish worshipping the gods and Buddhas of the heavens and came to the majestic and magnificent Daxiong Treasure Hall.
The Daxiong Treasure Hall, the supreme place in the sacred place of Buddhism, is dedicated to the person who created Mount Meru, the Buddha Shakyamuni.
With a pious heart, Chu Chen earnestly respects and worships, not pretentiously, but does it as he pleases, and truly visits the Buddha.
Subsequently, Chu Chen and Lin Yi walked through the Daxiong Treasure Hall and came to the highest point of Mount Meru, that is, the place where the Bodhi tree was planted.
It is said that the Bodhi tree was planted here by Shakyamuni himself, and after 5,000 years, it is still green and full of vitality and vitality.
Bodhi tree, legend has it that Shakyamuni became a Buddha because of it, on a full moon night, he had an epiphany under the tree, so he became a Buddha.
For Buddhist disciples, the Bodhi tree is the supreme sacred object that should be worshipped with devotion, but for outsiders, it is a terrifying artifact, comparable to the existence of a supreme divine weapon.
However, the Bodhi tree is open to outsiders and allows everyone to come and worship without fear of being snatched by others.
This is not surprising, the paradise of Buddhism, the holy land of Buddhism, and the inheritance of Shakyamuni are naturally terrifying, and under the peace, it is a terrifying strength that anyone is afraid of......
