A Journey into the World of Movies

Chapter 363

Lin Yang circulated the golden lotus formula of merit and virtue, and the sum of merit and virtue in his life could only form a small lotus petal.Although Lin Yang himself was very dissatisfied, Guanyin Bodhisattva praised it out loud.

Lin Yang asked: "Sister, how much merit do I need to cultivate Luo Han Guo?"

Avalokitesvara replied: "If you count according to the grade of the golden lotus of merit, you need three grades. Once your merit is enough, I can enlighten you and achieve Luo Han Guo. But I suggest you prove Luo Han Guo by yourself. In addition to merit, Buddhism and Cultivation must keep up. Otherwise, even if you get Luo Han Guo, you will still be at the lowest level."

Lin Yang sighed: "What my sister said is true! Then I don't know how much merit is needed to become a Bodhisattva, a Buddha, or a sage?"

Avalokitesvara smiled and said: "You still want to become a saint with merit? If it was the beginning of the world, there might be a chance, but now, it is impossible. To prove the status of Bodhisattva, you need six grades of merit and virtue. To become a Buddha, you need nine. Grades. To become a saint, you need twelve grades.”

Lin Yangdao: "I think my sister is already a golden lotus of the ninth grade of merit and virtue, and the Dharma is profound, but her cultivation has not kept up, so she has not attained Buddhahood?"

Avalokitesvara sighed: "That's right! Buddha is Tao, and it's true. According to the realm divided by Taoist ancestors, bodhisattvas correspond to golden immortals, and Buddhas correspond to quasi-sages. As for saints, that is the realm of Buddha's body. Buddha Ontology established Mahayana Buddhism, and this is the only way to become holy with merit. I am only the peak of the Golden Immortal, and I am one step short of my cultivation, and I am a heavenly moat!"

Lin Yang said with a smile: "My sister has accumulated so much merit and practiced for so long, I think it is just around the corner to break through the quasi-sage."

Guanyin shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. The reason why the quasi-sage is a natural moat is because it is too difficult to break through. That's why I want to supplement it with merit and virtue. When my merit and virtue Golden Lotus reaches the tenth rank, it may be the time to break through! "

Lin Yang said: "I believe that my sister can definitely achieve it. Since my sister said that I should keep up with the cultivation base and Buddhism, I can practice this cultivation base by myself. As for the Dharma, I will trouble my sister to explain it to me."

Guanyin Bodhisattva is just happy to see its success. If Lin Yang gets her guidance and achieves Luo Han Guo, it will be a great merit to her.Moreover, there is such a layer of sibling relationship, whether it is her or Lin Yang, as long as one party has great achievements, the other party will also benefit.For example, Peacock Daming King, just because he once swallowed the Buddha in his belly, was named the Buddha's mother.The causal relationship in Buddhism is sometimes very mysterious.

Lin Yang wanted to promote the Dharma, and Guanyin Bodhisattva immediately told Lin Yang about the Dharma.

In Mahayana Buddhism, there are countless kinds of methods.What Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva learned is the door of liberation through the practice of great compassion.

Compassion is the foundation of Buddhism. The consistent purpose of Guanyin Bodhisattva's great compassion is to relieve the suffering of all sentient beings, save them, and free them from fear.

All sentient beings originally have compassion, but they are narrow-minded, confused by afflictions, and surrounded by selfish views.Compassion cannot be expanded to become great compassion, and equal compassion cannot be manifested.

In view of this, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva created four more methods to stabilize himself and save all sentient beings.

These four methods are the method of perfect penetration of the ears, the method of seeing that the five aggregates are empty, the method of holding the name and the recitation of the Great Compassion Mantra.

The gist of the Dharma-door of Perfecting the Roots of Ears is: firstly, in the hearing, enter the place of exile; what you enter is stillness, the two phases of movement and stillness are clear and do not arise.If it increases gradually, what is heard is exhausted; what is heard is exhausted, and what is perceived is empty; the perception of emptiness is extremely round, and what is empty is extinguished; when birth and cessation are extinguished, quiescence is present.Suddenly surpassing, the world is out of the world, the ten directions are perfectly bright, and two special victories are obtained: one is to unite all the Buddhas in the ten directions.The second is to unite all sentient beings of the six realms in the ten directions, and share the same compassion and admiration with all sentient beings.It means caring and listening to the misery of the world, but not being attached to the world's sensuality.

The method of seeing that the five aggregates are empty is to use the method of analysis to observe all living beings and their environment.With the power of profound wisdom, you can see through the five aggregates that the worldly dharmas are nothing but emptiness.So as to reach the realm of "all five aggregates are empty" and "prajna reality".

The method of holding the name is that as long as the believers are sincere and recite the name of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, they will not be burned in the fire, will not be submerged in the water, stay away from evil spirits, self-destroy the torture tools, eliminate resentful thieves, remove all obstacles, avoid all difficulties, and fulfill their dreams. All wishes, all blessings achieved.This is because Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva can respond to others, incarnate everywhere, save the suffering, respond to all requests, and has the great power to benefit all living beings. Ordinary Bodhisattvas do not have this ability.

As for the recitation of the Great Compassion Mantra, one must arouse the great bodhicitta to save all living beings, hold fast in the body, and develop an equal heart among all living beings.If you can recite and hold this mantra without doubt, you can gain immeasurable benefit and happiness: at the end of your life, all the Buddhas of the ten directions will come to help you; you will not fall into the three evil ways; you will be born in all Buddha countries; All successes; turning females into males; eliminating serious crimes that infringe permanent residence; eliminating ten evils and five rebellions, slandering the law and slandering people, breaking fasts and breaking precepts, destroying pagodas and temples, stealing monks and objects, polluting the holy life and other crimes; being able to obtain Fifteen kinds of good life, except fifteen kinds of bad death.

Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva personally taught the Dharma, his tongue is shining like a lotus flower, and the words are pearls and words are not enough to describe.

Compared with the Buddhism and martial arts that Lin Yang practiced before, they are completely different from those of Guanyin Bodhisattva.

Immersed in this profound Buddha Dharma of Great Compassion, the divine power of the Heavenly Crying Sutra in Lin Yang's body was infected by it and resonated.

With Guanyin Bodhisattva's exposition, Lin Yang's comprehension became more and more profound. Lin Yang couldn't help but think why Cangjie and Tang Xuanzang mourned for the fate of all living beings when they saw the Heavenly Crying Sutra. This is a kind of great compassion.

Before he knew it, Lin Yang also shed tears.

Part of it is Lin Yang's own promotion of Buddhism, and part of it is the influence of the divine power of the Heavenly Lamentation Sutra.

With compassion, the divine power grows stronger.The divine power grew stronger and stronger, and promoted Buddhism.

Soon, Lin Yang's whole body was enveloped by a layer of golden light.

This is Buddha light!

Guanyin Bodhisattva was also stunned. She has taught the Dharma countless times, and there are very few people who can listen to it once and have this effect.After a little bit of counting, Guanyin knew the cause and effect, and couldn't help but smile inwardly.

This is the law of fate!
Lin Yang obtained the supernatural power of the Heavenly Crying Sutra, and she also had to explain the method of practicing great compassion.With the two complementing each other, Lin Yang was baptized once.With this baptism alone, Lin Yang's Dharma practice has a solid foundation. As long as Lin Yang continues to act with great compassion, not to mention Luo Han Guo, even Bodhisattva status is just around the corner.

Lin Yang was bathed in the Buddha's light, listening to the voice of Guanyin Bodhisattva, he only felt that his realm was infinitely sublimated, and he had an illusion, as if he was another Guanyin Bodhisattva.

After three days, Guanyin Bodhisattva stopped.Lin Yang, on the other hand, has become a golden man, exuding infinite Buddha nature from inside to outside.Anyone who sees him will be able to see what compassion is from him and be deeply infected.

Guanyin Bodhisattva did not interrupt Lin Yang, but sat aside to protect Lin Yang.

After half a day, the golden light on Lin Yang's body gradually dissipated.

It wasn't until the golden light dissipated that Lin Yang woke up leisurely.

The moment he woke up, Lin Yang's temperament changed drastically.Moreover, the divine power of the Heavenly Crying Sutra in Lin Yang's body, the Buddha's power, is also powerful to an incredible level.It would be infinitely more difficult for anyone to calculate Lin Yang.And Lin Yang wants to use Buddhist martial arts, with the blessing of Buddha's power, the power will be countless times stronger.

Recalling the experience of the past three days, Lin Yang stood up, bowed to Guanyin Bodhisattva, and said, "Thank you, sister!"

Guanyin Bodhisattva smiled and said: "This is the law of fate! You and I are destined! Judging from your Buddha nature today, my sister is waiting for the day when you will become a Bodhisattva."

Lin Yang solemnly said: "No matter what I can cultivate in the future, my sister will always be my sister!"

Hearing Lin Yang's words, Guanyin Bodhisattva was very pleased. This sentence showed his heart.It means that even if Lin Yang achieves more than Guanyin Bodhisattva in the future, he will still treat Guanyin Bodhisattva as his sister.

Guanyin Bodhisattva nodded, smiled without saying a word.

it is more than words.
