Intercept the second disciple

Chapter 377 Temporary Sin, Eternal Saint
Changan.

Liuer has lived in Chang'an for more than ten years, and Buddhism has been flourishing for more than ten years. After all, people are always forgetful, and for many years, they have not manifested their holiness in the world, nor deliberately spread their beliefs in the world.

Today, adding all Taoist sects together may not be enough for Buddhism, but this is also the result of Xu Siyuan's secret acquiescence.

Six ears sit in Chang'an, but the name of Nanwu Zhantan Gongde Buddha has spread all over the world. In addition, Wu Zetian is a good Buddha. If there is something good in the top, the bottom must follow it. They all started to believe in Buddhism.

Moreover, the doctrine of Liu Er Ding is also simple. Regardless of good or evil, as long as you recite Amitabha Buddha, you can return to bliss after death.

So many people have the mentality of believing in what they have rather than what they don’t have. Isn’t it just to recite Amitabha Buddha several times? Everyone has to recite a few Buddhist names, and if they have the conditions, they will invite a statue of Bodhisattva and Buddha to sit at home, and if they have no conditions, they will go to the temple to burn a few sticks of incense.

A city of Chang'an, filled with the sound of chanting sutras.

···
"Buddha, the Nanwu Zhantan Gongde Buddha has gone too far recently. He not only misinterpreted my scriptures on Buddhism and Taoism, but also said that reciting the Buddha's name can achieve bliss." The few arhats in the world were driven back to the West by him.”

Ran Deng was also a little displeased, but Ran Deng still said: "But you can't deny that his preaching effect is very good. I thought it would take at least hundreds of years for me to teach Daxing. It's less than 20 years since Dongtu was born. Believers and worshipers are everywhere, and Buddhist temples have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.”

"The eastern land is vast and there are many living beings, and the luck of my teaching has also skyrocketed. Therefore, Zhantan Gongde Buddha has made great achievements. It is precisely because of him that he sits in the east that my teaching can be so prosperous. Even now, I dare not change people casually." .”

Ran Deng did not mention Liu Er's tampering with Buddhist teachings from the beginning to the end. Although Ran Deng is a Buddha, his original intention to go to the West may not be because he believes in the true meaning of Buddhism. What the superiors value is the result rather than the process. Ran Deng is right for Liu Er I still appreciate it.However, Liu Er seems to be becoming more and more self-assertive, and Ran Deng also feels that it needs to be beaten.

Avalokitesvara said: "The Buddha also knew that among ordinary people there are immortals, there are still many people who can communicate with yin and yang among ordinary people. It's okay now, and in a few hundred years, I am afraid that all sentient beings will understand that the so-called bliss is just a scam. "

"It's a trivial matter. My Buddhism has made this lie for him. I can choose a few people to come to my Lingshan every year, and then let these people who come to Lingshan return to their souls. This can become an example, and it can also prove that Tang Seng's words are true. .”

"But just counting people is probably less."

Ran Deng said: "As long as my Buddhism continues to prosper, who would dare to really doubt it?"

What else did Avalokitesvara want to say, Ran Deng looked at Avalokitesvara and said, "You have made great contributions in presiding over Journey to the West. Now that Journey to the West is over, even that monkey has been conferred the title of Buddha. You are dissatisfied."

"Absolutely not." Avalokitesvara didn't know if it was because of the six ears that made Ran Deng dissatisfied. Avalokitesvara said quickly, "The Buddha has treated me very well, and it is my blessing to be able to follow the Buddha all the time."

Ran Deng smiled and said: "Don't be so nervous, you and I are different from others, I believe in you. I teach that now the luck is soaring, and three new golden lotuses of luck have opened in the Eight Treasures Merit Pool, you go pick one It will be of great benefit to your cultivation."

"And you must have noticed that it is easier for me to teach my disciples to practice now than before. It is also easier for you and me to comprehend the law and the way than before. The mysteries of heaven and earth are no longer so illusory to my Buddhism."

"This is God's love for my Buddhism. In this fairy world, the Daoist's saying that Buddhism should be popular is not just empty words. With the love of today, with your accumulated aptitude, and with the help of that golden lotus, you will be able to cultivate at that time." quasi-holy."

Avalokitesvara was overjoyed, lit a lamp and said: "Then you will go to Chang'an in person, but the scale needs to be mastered carefully, in short, we can't spoil the current good situation."

This is the tacit consent that Avalokitesvara has seized power, Avalokitesvara saluted and said: "Buddha, don't worry, Buddhism will continue to flourish in the East."

Ran Deng smiled and said, "Okay, I'm at ease when you do things."

···
Snow fell from the sky, this is the first snow in Chang'an this year.

The new wind was blowing, the sky was full of snowflakes, and there were fewer pedestrians on the street, but at this time, some people still left the shelter of the house and came to the street.

"Master, let me open an umbrella for you." Li Yu said.

Liu Er shook his head, at this time Liu Er changed his appearance, no one could see that he was a famous holy monk, and everyone only regarded him as an ordinary monk.

The street was a bit deserted, but the stalls selling Buddha statues and Buddhist scriptures were very lively, and the busiest one was selling the so-called printed copies of the six paths of reincarnation.

Seeing Liu Er stopped in front of his stall, the stall owner hurriedly greeted him: "You two know that after death, people will enter reincarnation and go to hell. The eighteen levels of hell are really terrifying, and they seem to be worse than the punishment in my world." It's more than a hundred times harsher. So if you two buy a copy, don't look at my book as unremarkable, but it has been enlightened by an eminent monk. It can not only understand the reincarnation of the underworld, but also drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters. After all, only by understanding why the underworld punishes you can Less torture after death."

"The two of us will go to the temple to offer incense, or the benefactor will send us a book to worship the Buddha." Liu Er asked.

The stall owner thought for a while and said, "I can give you two a little cheaper."

Liu Er smiled and shook his head and left. After walking away, Li Yu asked: "Master, there are countless creatures in this world because of the cycle of life and death. Death is indeed terrible, but it seems too much to blindly preach the horror of death. It is the eighteenth floor. So what about hell, a real man who walks through hell is still a hero. In the beginning of ancient times, the people were not afraid of death, so there was a human race as the protagonist, but now the human race has lost the bravery and bloodiness it once had."

Liu Er asked: "Have you ever thought that even the stall owner is unwilling to give the Buddha a book for nothing, so why do all living beings think that the Buddha will satisfy the wishes of believers?"

Li Yu thought for a while and said, "Maybe it's because he thinks it's easier to recite scriptures and worship Buddha than to work hard on his own. In addition, Master, how can you enter the Lingshan Mountain by reciting the Buddha's name? Master, you have deceived the whole world."

This is what Li Yu wanted to ask a long time ago, but he never dared to ask.

Hearing this, Liu Er was not angry but smiled and said: "Being a teacher has lied to the world. As long as you use your brain a little bit, you will know that it is impossible to recite the Buddha to achieve bliss, but everyone is willing to believe it. You must know that my master was also there. Speaking of the Fa in the world, in fact, there are many immortals in the famous mountains and rivers, and in the secret realm of mountain spirits. If you want to learn from a teacher, you will have the opportunity to transcend life and death, and they don’t have to struggle in this world of mortals. And Jin’ao Island is still accepting apprentices , although Jin Ao is thousands of miles away, if he can get started, he can also jump out of the Three Realms and Five Elements, wouldn't it be more comfortable and carefree than Lingshan Bliss."

"But all beings are still more willing to believe my simple lie, but the lie will eventually be exposed one day."

Liu Er said expectantly: "At that time, they will wake up. Only when all living beings find that worshiping Buddha is useless and praying to God is useless will they truly rely on themselves."

"The only one who can save sentient beings is sentient beings themselves."

"I may be a sinner for a while, but maybe I will be a saint through the ages." Liu Er laughed at himself.
