Chapter 1270: Mahayana Meaning

From this incident, Chu Chen discovered the great wisdom and great ability of the Buddha, five thousand years ago, the Buddha asked the King of the Earth to guard the eighteen layers of hell and wait for someone who is destined.

5,000 years ago, we knew what would happen 5,000 years later, doesn't that mean that the Buddha, like the ancestor of divination, also has the ability to predict the future.

This time, it was the same, as soon as Chu Chen comprehended the six-character mantra, Shakyamuni Buddha understood everything, and asked the King of the Earth Bodhisattva to come and invite Chu Chen to go to Mount Meru.

"The Buddha invited, it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate!"

Chu Chen said with a smile, counting it, he has a deep relationship with the Buddha, if it weren't for the "Great Day Rulai Sutra" given to him by the Buddha, maybe he would have fallen in the last battle with Murong City, Yin Yang Eye, and he wouldn't be alive now.

When he receives the grace of the Buddha, he will remember it in his heart, so for the Buddha Shakyamuni, Chu Chen is grateful, but also with piety and respect.

Then, together with the Bodhisattva King of the Earth, Chu Chen left Lin City and flew directly to the Western Regions, using the secret treasure, the speed was extremely fast, and it took a short time to enter the territory of the Western Regions.

The Western Regions is a sacred land, once, here is a never-ending desert, and finally one day, a great sage came here, educated sentient beings, and with great magical powers, created Mount Meru, leaving the Bodhi tree.

Later, Buddhism was born, but no one can forget this great sage, and it is precisely because of the Mahayana Buddhism he brought that there is now the Buddha Land of the Western Regions.

This vast area, every inch of land, every plant and tree, is cleansed with the holy light of the Buddha, nourished by the Dharma for many years, so that every living being, or every stone, in the Western Regions seems to have Buddha nature.

Not long after, Chu Chen and the Bodhisattva King of Jizo came to Mount Meru and met the Buddha himself.

The body of the Buddha of the three worlds, amazing and gorgeous, Sakyamuni is one of the most amazing people in heaven and earth since the long years, creating the immortal myth of the body of the Buddha of the third world, so that future generations admire.

"See the Buddha!"

Chu Chen saw the Great Buddha ceremony, full of respect and piety to Shakyamuni, he is not a Buddha, nor is he a person who believes in Buddha, just because Shakyamuni is kind to him.

"Chu Chen, a few days ago, I watched the heavens and learned that you will be able to comprehend the six-character mantra in the next few days, so I ordered the Bodhisattva of the Earth to invite you from thousands of miles away, I want to send you another creation!"

The Buddha's treasure appearance*, clean and dusty, is not at all like the Buddha of myths and legends, beyond the scope of people, more like an immortal.

"Oh?"

Chu Chen was surprised, he knew that when Shakyamuni invited him to come, there must be something, and he didn't want the other party to go straight to the point and say that he would give him a piece of creation.

"Come with me!"

Shakyamuni chuckled, raised his hand and waved, and a white lotus flower appeared out of thin air, blooming at Chu Chen's feet, otherworldly, holding Chu Chen up and levitating into the void.

The next moment, Chu Chen found that he had left Mount Meru, with Sakyamuni, and did not know where to go.

"Buddha, where are we going?"

Chu Chen asked, but Shakyamuni just smiled and did not answer, and together with Chu Chen, he crossed thousands of mountains and rivers to a land without any warriors.

This is a small village, just like Africa on Earth, where the people are miserable and miserable, and some people do not even have enough to eat, and they will starve to death at any time.

"Do you know what is the best way to educate the people?"

Looking at those who were suffering, the Buddha asked with a smile, unfathomable.

"Give them food and water?"

Chu Chen replied, and at the same time, he stared at Shakyamuni with a puzzled face, wondering why the Buddha brought him here?

"Huh!"

Shakyamuni just smiled, but did not speak, but together with Chu Chen, he descended from the sky, turned into two ordinary people, and descended into that small village.

Then, Chu Chen really saw what it means to educate sentient beings, Shakyamuni personally helped those suffering villagers to dig wells and open canals, and taught them the knowledge of cultivating the fields, so that they could learn with it, and they could do it in the future, and they would not starve to death if they turned around a thousand times.

The purpose of this is to help them fundamentally change, and no matter what happens in the future, their lives will only get better and better.

"Do you understand?"

Shakyamuni asked, the dust is not clean, and it is becoming more and more sacred.

"It is better to teach people and fish than to teach them to fish, is this the truth?"

Although he didn't know what Shakyamuni meant, Chu Chen still told each other seriously and told the Buddha his feelings.

The Buddha smiled but did not say a word, but still helped them in this small village, taught them to domesticate livestock, cultivate the fields, day after day, and did not say anything more.

"What do you understand now?"

After a long time, Shakyamuni asked again, again this question.

"To educate sentient beings is to fundamentally influence them, not to blindly give alms, because that is not necessarily a good thing for them!"

Chu Chen still said his thoughts, but in exchange for the Buddha's laughter and silence, he didn't say whether it was right or wrong.

A month later, when everything that should be taught was almost over, Shakyamuni took Chu Chen and left this completely changed small village and went to another place.

Again, this is an uncivilized village, where people don't even have houses, live under some big trees, and live in a place where birds don't poop, living in poor clothes.

In the same way, the Buddha helped them with his own hands, taught them to dig canals and wells, build houses, and cultivate fields, so that they could live a self-sufficient life in the future.

A few days later, Shakyamuni asked Chu Chen again, again the same question, asking him what he understood.

Chu Chen thought for a while, and told Shakyamuni his thoughts again, but unexpectedly, in exchange for Shakyamuni's smile and silence, he didn't say anything.

In this way, Shakyamuni took Chu Chen for two or three months, visiting more than a dozen primitive small villages to help people live a self-sufficient life.

During this period, Shakyamuni asked Chu Chen that question many times, but Chu Chen's answer was different every time, and he often wondered about this question, what kind of answer is the answer that Shakyamuni wants?

"Do you understand now?"

Shakyamuni said with a smile, for so long, he had been asking Chu Chen the same question, but he was not bored at all, but was very patient.

"It's a little bit understood, it seems to understand but not understand, educate sentient beings, and have compassion, is that so?"

Chu Chen said, thinking about it for two or three months, he finally summed up such an answer.

"Haha, you have finally come to a great enlightenment, I took you to educate sentient beings, just so that you can have a compassionate heart, a compassionate person, a Mahayana person, do you understand?"

Hearing this, Chu Chen showed an expression of sudden realization and nodded.

It turns out that Shakyamuni's intention is to do this, so that he can have compassion and understand the meaning of Mahayana.

After a while, Shakyamuni continued: "With compassion and understanding the meaning of Mahayana, you can try to invoke the six-character mantra again!"

The next moment, Chu Chen used the current chapter of the "Great Day Rulai True Sutra" to cast a six-character Daming mantra, emitting a Buddha sound of 'Om', and accompanied by a huge 'Om' character appeared, leveling a mountain in front of him and turning it into ashes.

The surrounding rivers turned upside down, the trees rolled into the sky, and the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, but only because of this Buddha sound.

"This power is much greater than before!"

Chu Chen was surprised, compared to before, this power was simply another realm, and it had undergone a qualitative sublimation, and it was extremely powerful.

This is not a simple superposition, but it has changed in essence, and the power of this six-character Daming Mantra is not inferior to the Ye family's secret eight or nine Xuangong.

"Hehe, because you have compassion, so you can exert the maximum power of the six-character mantra, and if you want to practice this way, you must understand the suffering of sentient beings and have the compassion to educate sentient beings!"

The Buddha said, "Bao Xiang*, that kind of cleansing Dharma breath, like a vast ocean, is shocking and unfathomable.

"I understand, Buddha, how can I Chu Chen, be so carefully taught by the Buddha?"

Chu Chen bowed down and expressed respect, after two or three months, until today, he really understood the Buddha's good intentions, it was originally to let him have compassion and better understand the current part of the "Great Day Rulai Sutra", that is, the six-character Great Ming Mantra.

Buddhists have always believed that if you often recite the six-character mantra, you will not enter reincarnation, be free from suffering, and even transcendent, and become immortal.

"Although you have not entered my Buddhism, you have a Buddha fate, and you have my inheritance, and you can be regarded as half a Buddhist person, I should guide you, because this is your fireworks!"

The Buddha continued to speak, and the words he said were also mysterious and mysterious, making it difficult for people to understand.

In an instant, under Chu Chen's feet, another white lotus flower appeared, holy and dust-free, like an immortal flower blooming, leaving with Chu Chen, and in a blink of an eye, they had returned to Mount Meru Buddhism.

It is said that every fallen leaf is the fruit of the wisdom of the Bodhi tree, and only those who are destined can understand the creation in it.

Last time, when the catastrophe came, Chu Chen saw with his own eyes that this Bodhi tree turned into a robe and a tin staff, becoming Shakyamuni's weapon against the corpse of the void world.

"Buddha, I am not a Buddhist, but I practice the "Great Day Nyorai Sutra", is it inappropriate?"

Chu Chen asked again, this is a peerless method, unfathomable, but it is the law of Buddhism, Shakyamuni has realized it all his life, and even the gods and Buddhas like the King of the Earth Bodhisattva cannot cultivate.

"I have already said, this is your Buddha fate, you can get it, it is all the will of heaven, and it has nothing to do with whether you are a Buddhist or not!"

Shakyamuni sat under the Bodhi tree, fell into the state of enlightenment, and no longer spoke, he preached here all day long, purifying all sentient beings, the purpose is to save the people of the world from falling into reincarnation and suffering from the way of heaven.

This sitting is a few years, this kind of great compassion is something that no one else can practice, no wonder Shakyamuni became a Buddha!

After a long time, Chu Chen bowed down again, expressed his gratitude, and left Mount Meru and headed in the direction of the Northern Regions.

For the Buddha, he was always grateful, let go of the identity of the Buddha, and went to open a canal and dig a well for mortals, the purpose was to let him have compassion and comprehend the meaning of Mahayana, this kind of incarnate Bodhi teachings are enough to make Chu Chen unforgettable.
