Chapter 111: Shihou on the Buddha
"The three deadly sins of Buddhism, the Buddha is in the West, flourishing in the West, but for the prosperity of the Buddha, calculating the orthodoxy of the Three Realms of Heaven, and spreading Buddhism to the east, for which the Tang Emperor was deceived to disturb the underworld, and even stealed the authority of the underworld for his own use, which is a crime against the sky."
"The four sins of Buddhism, the Buddha and all living beings are understandable, but your Buddhism claims that all beings are equal, but in fact it is a strict hierarchy, believers abandon their families, how many people take refuge but end up with the Buddha spirit, the Buddha spirit only recites the scriptures and recites the Buddha, providing the power of faith for the high-level of Buddhism, but he has been ignorant of wisdom, people are not ghosts, ghosts, and there is no chance of reincarnation, how to talk about the good fortune of the past, this is the crime of deception."
"The five sins of Buddhism, Buddhists only know the meaning ......of cultivating the scriptures, light reality, the so-called five colors are empty, in fact, the world is empty, in the end the poor people only seek to die, and the rest of the people have to seek wisdom and supernatural powers, and do not pay attention to the present and talk about the future."
Shi Hou counted them one by one, said in an orderly manner, in fact, he had seen a post in his previous life, and he had counted the various status quo of Buddhism since Shakyamuni spread to the east, and now he is traveling to the world in the west, Shakyamuni is the Buddha, the original intention is good, but the crooked monk recites the crooked scriptures, and Shihou said all kinds of things, all of which are traceable in the spread of Buddhism.
Before he could continue, Guanyin Bodhisattva's face had turned black, and he said angrily, "Zhuzi'an dares to slander my Buddha, look for a fight." ”
When the words fell, Guanyin Bodhisattva pointed a little finger, and a strong qi went straight to Shihou.
"Heh, don't you dare let me continue?"
Shi Hou took a few steps back, dodged, and looked at the Bodhisattva with a playful face, Zhen Yuanzi next to him snorted coldly, the Bodhisattva's face changed slightly, and he didn't dare to make another move in fear.
"Although the Western religion was a little shameless back then, it was also forced by the situation, and now Buddhism is prosperous, but it robs humanity and incense, disrupts the order of the underworld, and goes against the orthodoxy of the heavenly court, and regards the Three Realms as its own faith hunting ground, not to mention how many demon kings have been murdered on the way to the west, as far as your Buddha is concerned, it is not really upright, I don't believe you ask him, on the way to the west, have you ever been sorry."
Shihou saw that Guanyin Bodhisattva was afraid of Zhenyuanzi Daxian, and immediately became even more courageous.
"Shaft, you ......" Guanyin Bodhisattva was angry, and some regretted coming to this Wanshou Mountain, but he never thought that Shihou's mouth was even more annoying than his ability.
"Bodhisattva, it is said that the "Multi-Heart Sutra" is one of the fundamental methods of Buddhism practice created by you, which can be called the general sutra of cultivating the truth, and it is the door of the Buddha." Shi Hou said, the corners of his mouth slightly curled.
"Fanatics, do you still want to discuss the Dharma with me?" Guanyin Bodhisattva was unexpected, and he became more and more jealous of Shihou.
The advantage of this son's tongue is difficult to resist.
"Then let's say, you said that the relics are the empty phase of all the laws, which are neither born nor destroyed, neither impure nor pure, neither increased nor decreased. Therefore, there is no color in the air, no thoughts, no thoughts, no thoughts, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, no color, sound, fragrance, touch, no vision, and even no consciousness. There is no ignorance, there is no end to ignorance, there is no old age and death, and there is no old age and death. There is no suffering to gather and destroy the Tao, there is no wisdom and no gain, so there is no gain. ”
"You, where did you get this "Sutra of Many Hearts"" Guanyin Bodhisattva's face changed slightly.
"You don't care about this, let me ask you, since you have cultivated the relics, you have no thoughts, no thoughts, no thoughts, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, no color, sound, fragrance, touch, no vision, and even no consciousness. There is no ignorance, there is no end to ignorance, there is no old age and death, and there is no old age and death. There is no suffering to gather and destroy the Tao, there is no wisdom and there is no gain, so there is no gain, why did you come here after many years of cultivation? ”
Shi Hou chuckled, "I've never been able to figure it out, since your five aggregates of Buddhism are empty, why should you care about external things such as believers, Dharma teaching, luck, authority, cultivation, etc., and cultivate to become a relic, shouldn't they all be empty, empty, empty, empty, empty?" ”
"Are you ......" Guanyin Bodhisattva was asked by Shi Hou, and he was a little in a trance.
"Attracting believers, fighting for territory, grabbing luck, seizing authority, asceticism, etc., should be the pursuit of us ordinary people, shouldn't you Buddhism be all floating clouds, indifferently watching the vicissitudes of life, even if the sword and soldier are added, there is no desire to do knowledge, no eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind, no color, sound, fragrance, touch, no vision, even no consciousness, and even no death, no suffering, no wisdom, and no gain?"
Shi Hou's voice gradually changed in tone, gradually with the effect of Buddha chanting, so that Guanyin Bodhisattva knew that he was messing with his mind, but he couldn't help but think about it.
Not only him, but also the Western Lingshan Da Lei Yin Temple, all Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, etc. were all moved.
Not to mention the sin of the Buddha that Shi Hou talked about before, which made the Buddha angry but had to face it squarely, now on the relics of the "Many Heart Sutra", there seems to be a little truth.
Since the aggregates are empty, why fight for it.
At this moment, the relics in the bodies of all the people present seemed to be covered with dust, but only in an instant, the Buddha light on the body of the Buddha shone brightly, and everyone woke up.
"Amitabha, this son's words, there is delusion in truth, and truth in delusion, don't be tempted by his words, if you can keep the truth in vain, it will be good for my Buddhist practice." If the Buddha came to praise, it made all the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Arhats, etc. drench in cold sweat.
Once they doubt themselves, the relics are no longer clean, and they are destroying the way of the body.
"Amitabha, this devil is really hateful, Buddha, this son can't stay, he should cross into my Buddha Gate and teach him to know the true meaning of my Buddha Gate." Immediately, a Bodhisattva stood up and suggested.
"Well, let's see how Master Guanyin responds." The Buddha nodded, noncommittal, but his eyes were staring at Shi Hou in the Dharma realm, and his mind was restless for a long time.
In fact, what he cares about the most is Shi Hou's sentence 'On the way to the west, have you ever felt sorry'.
In front of Wuzhuang Guan, Zhen Yuanzi's eyes lit up, and he looked at Shihou and Guanyin Bodhisattva with interest, especially for Shihou, even if he didn't expect that Shihou's tongue would be so powerful.
Guanyin Bodhisattva is worthy of being one of the Bodhisattvas in Buddhism, although his mind was stirred up by Shi Hou's words for a while, but he quickly calmed down, and glanced at Shi Hou with a slightly complicated look, and said, "Amitabha, almost hit the donor's way." ”
"No, that's your own way, your Buddha's way, can the Bodhisattva teach me, why do you cultivate the four great emptiness, but what you do is to calculate everything and strive to be the first, is it for the so-called general trend in the Buddha, the prosperity of Buddhism, can you abandon yourself, deny yourself, and do that thing that is inconsistent with words and deeds? What is the true self, what is the Buddha, and the practice of the true self or the Buddha? ”
Shi Hou smiled, "Actually, I still have a question I don't understand, you are dedicated to the Buddha and cultivating the Buddha, sitting in meditation and discussing the Tao, may I ask what is the Buddha, and all beings are Buddhas?" Or are Buddhas sentient beings? Or is a Buddha a Buddha? All beings are all beings? If the Buddha is a sentient being, and all sentient beings are equal, what is the difference between a Buddha and a non-Buddha? ”
Burst......
In the Heavenly Court Lingxiao Treasure Hall, the third prince of Nezha, who was standing behind Li Jing, the Heavenly King of Tota, listened to Shihou's words, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud.
But in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace, the immortals and gods did not react because of his unbearable laughter, and looked at Shi Hou's appearance one by one, as if they were like ghosts.
Da Lei Yin Temple, just reminded by the Buddha, among the Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and Arhats who had barely settled down, some people heard Shi Hou's words, and their hearts were directly shaken, and the relics actually cracked, and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Although the others did not shake their foundations as much as he did, they all looked extremely ugly and tried their best to suppress their own relics.
"Amitabha, this son cannot be kept."
If the Buddha's face is angry, the five great kings will immediately manifest and disappear.
But the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas in the Great Leiyin Temple were unaware, and no one dared to underestimate Shihou.
"Hahaha, happy, bring the wine." Guan Jiangkou, Erlang God's voice resounded in all directions, obviously in an extremely good mood.
In the other caves, as long as there is the power of the Three Realms that pays attention to the Wuzhuang Temple, many people are not handsome, and the fluctuations of mana are stronger, and it is not a big deal to watch the excitement one by one.
"Shaft, shut up......"
No matter how good-hearted Guanyin Bodhisattva is, she also has an urge to run violent at this time, and more importantly, the waveless and unmoved state of mind she has practiced for many years has been affected, although it will not crack the Buddha's heart, but it has also been shaken by Shi Hou's words.
I think she was originally a disciple of the golden immortal and a saint, but because of some obsessions, she left her teacher and went to the West, but she was rejected by Shi Hou with a single word of practice, just like a sharp blade of heaven.
"Hehe, Bodhisattva, don't worry, I'm just asking you for advice, who made you a true Bodhisattva, I'm just a little golden immortal, it's shameful not to understand, it's shameful not to ask."
Shi Hou smiled and continued to speak, "Actually, there is still a question, whether there are sentient beings first and then there are Buddhas, or there are Buddhas first and then sentient beings, I am more inclined to the former point of view, sentient beings give birth to Buddhas, and Buddhas see sentient beings suffering and cross sliving beings to bliss, right?" ”
Shi Hou looked well-behaved, he really looked like a learned descendant, but there was nothing wrong with what he said, Guanyin Bodhisattva thought about it again and again, and could only nod.
"Then here's the problem." Shi Hou was in good spirits.
"Since it is all sentient beings who give birth to Buddhas, and the Buddha crosses sentient beings, when the Buddha crosses all sentient beings, the four major doors of your Buddhism are empty, the color is not different from the emptiness, the emptiness is not different from the color, the color is empty, the emptiness is the color, may I ask, who will be the sentient beings, who will be the Buddha, the Buddha is not colored, so he cannot give birth to children, all sentient beings have no descendants, there are no sentient beings in the future generations, and naturally there will be no Buddha, may I ask, the Buddha crosses all sentient beings, is it a small good or a big evil?"
Burst......
Rao is Guanyin Bodhisattva has great wisdom, great perseverance, and great mana, but he was also confused by Shi Hou's words, and couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, and the eyes that looked at Shi Hou didn't look like looking at people.
"Actually, there is another saying on this question, if there are Buddhas first and then sentient beings......
Shi Hou didn't realize it at all, he still had to continue to ask questions, he looked like he was poor and reluctant, Guanyin Bodhisattva couldn't do it, and he couldn't argue for a while, but she knew that if she listened to Shi Hou again, not to mention that her mind was in turmoil now, she was not affected, and she couldn't stay in this place anymore.
Unable to say goodbye to Zhen Yuanzi, Guanyin Bodhisattva set up the auspicious clouds and turned around to leave, looking at Shihou with a sigh of relief, looking unfinished.
Zhen Yuanzi Daxian looked strange, and finally gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Shihou, you cow." ”
