Journey to the West: People are in heaven, working from nine to five

Chapter 1950 Practice is the only criterion for testing truth
  Under the night, Tang Seng stood in front of Chu Hao, his fair face full of curiosity.

This eminent monk, who had practiced in the Tang Dynasty for many years, once again had doubts in his heart after experiencing so many things.

In the final analysis, the essence is that there is a trace of confusion in the understanding of Buddhism.

High in the sky, Guanyin and Diting, who were silently watching here, also looked down with serious expressions.

When Tang Monk was shaken in his heart, the Guanyin Bodhisattva also flashed a hint of surprise.

She did not expect that Tang Monk would have a different understanding of worldly matters. This understanding might even shake his inner devotion to Buddhism.

This is something that must be stopped.

"Master Guanyin, do we want to stop him?" Di Ting said anxiously.

Because the person Tang Seng is asking now is Chu Hao, it is specifically about the existence of Lingshan. If he is asked to answer, he may say something shocking.

Guanyin was also a little uneasy in her heart. If Chu Hao was allowed to talk nonsense and shake Tang Monk's determination to learn scriptures, then the disaster of Journey to the West might be scrapped.

Thinking of this, Guanyin's jade hands moved slightly.

boom--

In an instant, a thunder suddenly sounded in the originally clear night sky, shaking the world and making countless living beings tremble.

On the ground, Tang Seng was also startled.

"What? It scared me to death." Zhu Bajie looked up at the sky and muttered.

The four masters and disciples present were all startled by this bolt from the blue.

Only Chu Hao had deep eyes and a smile on his lips.

He knew very well that this was Guanyin's warning and hoped that he would not slander Buddhism.

But if Buddhism is really right, then why slander it?
  Thinking of this, Chu Hao looked at Tang Seng: "That said, practice is the only criterion for testing truth."

"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth?" Tang Seng said this sentence and kept thinking in his heart.

At the same time, Guanyin high in the sky was also attracted by this sentence.

What is truth?

That is the most accurate and true theory in the world, it is the rule of heaven and earth, and it is an existence that cannot be changed.

This Chu Hao actually used practice to flaunt the truth, thinking that after practice, he would know whether it is the truth.

This statement is quite consistent with Buddhism’s approach to worldly affairs, and is also consistent with certain theories of Taoism.

I have to say, this is very beautifully said.

Even Guanyin had to feel that this Chu Hao was a man of great wisdom.

On the ground, Tang Seng was thinking quietly, unable to find a way to understand for a while.

At this moment, Chu Hao continued: "There is nothing wrong with Buddhist scriptures, and Taoist scriptures can also save people. The key is the person who uses it and the results produced after using it."

As soon as these words came out, Tang Monk suddenly realized something in his heart. He stared at Chu Hao with his eyes wide open, his expression extremely pious, and he couldn't help but salute and said: "Listen to the immortal master's words, the poor monk has gained a lot."

Originally, he was still thinking about the difference between the two and his views on Buddhist scriptures.

Now it seems that the truth is what can save the world, whether it is Buddhist scriptures or others.

And Tang Sanzang is proving with practice that the true scriptures can save the world.

That's why he traveled thousands of miles, crossed many dangers, and went to the West to obtain the true scriptures.

At this moment, Tang Seng already had the answer in his heart.

He looked to the west, becoming more determined to seek the true scriptures.

High in the sky, Guanyin heard the conversation between the two and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Chu Hao's words were a bit like Tai Chi, they did not slander Buddhism after all. In fact, Chu Hao has never disliked the Buddhist scriptures, and he does not feel that some of the principles in the Buddhist scriptures are wrong.

From the beginning to the end, what he hated were those Buddhist practitioners who regarded themselves as noble and superior.

They have not understood the true scriptures at all, and they still claim to be the true Buddha Dharma and want to drive the world to use it for themselves.

In Chu Hao's eyes, this kind of behavior is just manipulating the world in the name of Buddhism. He really doesn't think it is very noble.

This is one of the reasons why Chu Hao will become the protector of this journey to the west.

He wanted Tang Monk to understand the true Dharma.

The sky is getting dark and everything is calm.

In the endless purgatory, Gu Yang was sitting leisurely on the throne of the main hall, looking calm and calm.

"Has Maitreya Buddha made any moves recently?" Gu Yang looked at Yue Shan and asked.

Yue Shan shook his head: "My lord, recently he has been giving lectures at his own small Leiyin Temple."

"Interesting, I wonder if the sutra he taught is different from that of Na Lingshan?" Gu Yang said with a smile on his lips.

"It's just some hypocritical and useless words." Yue Shan sneered.

Unexpectedly, Gu Yang shook his head and said: "No, the scriptures are correct, but the people who use them are wrong. If possible, I also want people from the demon clan to listen to the lectures of the Buddha who came from the east."

"My lord, why is this?" Yue Shan asked doubtfully.

"People of the demon clan are burdened with sins and troubled by karma. Wouldn't it be better if they could understand the truth clearly and escape from the sea of ​​suffering as soon as possible?" Gu Yang said with blazing eyes and extremely serious.

This made Yue Shan even more confused.

But Gu Yang continued: "Nothing is perfect. Don't think that all of us demons are sinners. You should really listen to Buddhist scriptures."

"But doesn't everyone in the world think so?" Yue Shan muttered.

Gu Yang suddenly laughed loudly: "Haha, the world is stupid, are you stupid too? If we really harm the way of heaven, why does the way of heaven still allow us to exist?"

"The demons kill people, which is an unforgivable evil. Buddhism allows monsters to eat people, which is to save all sentient beings. Where does this come from?"

"There is no difference between our demonic sect and Buddhism. It's just that we became losers in the past years, so we hide in this endless purgatory all day long."

"I understand." Yue Shan seemed to understand what he meant.

"As long as you understand, let Maitreya Buddha stop being obsessed with preaching and expect him to deal with Buddhism." After Gu Yang finished speaking, he disappeared from sight and disappeared on the throne.

……

In the early morning, the sky was getting brighter and Tang Seng had woken up.

He looked at Churi in the horizon and asked his disciples to put on the clothes that Sun Wukong had stolen last night.

After dressing up, he really doesn't look like a monk anymore.

"Master, are we going directly there?" Sun Wukong asked.

Tang Monk nodded: "After I ask for the true scripture, I will solve the problem of destroying France."

After the exchange last night, Tang Seng realized that he was not able to convince the king now, so he planned to avoid his sharp edge first.

As a result, everyone moved towards destroying France.

On the way, I also met some passers-by who were leaving the city, and they looked at the group of five people curiously.

Although there were doubts in their hearts, there was no flaw after all. They did not see that four of them were monks.

When they arrived at the city gate, Tang Monk became a little uneasy.
  If the soldiers guarding the city find out, everything they have done will be in vain.
