Wandering

Chapter 34
(Inscription: Just a small question, how should the Buddhist scriptures be recited? It can’t be recited like Tang poetry and Song poetry. There is a common saying that "little monks recite scriptures with their mouths but no heart", and it is right for a little monk to do so. The scriptures will not be left in the heart when they are exported. What does this mean? That is to say, when chanting the scriptures, the body and mind are as quiet as a bright mirror, and the scriptures that are chanted are like flying birds flying in front of the mirror. When the birds come, there will be projections in the mirror. There is no trace in the mirror. The "Diamond Sutra" also says that the past, present, and future cannot be obtained. If you look at it and think about it, you are studying yili. Of course, you can only achieve that state after you are clear about yili. The scriptures are like this, but what about the heavenly scriptures?)

*************************************
How to use rules?The word "rule" sounds like it is for people to obey, so how to use the rules?In fact, what Feng Junzi did today is an example.Practitioners can't cast spells in public to shock the world, can't use supernatural powers to deal with ordinary people, and can't use Taoism and Dharma for personal gain in the world. These are the three precepts that the world abides by.And Junzi Feng helped Zhou Song "picking out the trash" today, obviously using his magical powers, but he didn't break a single precept.It looks more mischievous and mischievous, but it is actually very skillful in doing things.

First of all, he didn't cast spells in public, Zhou Song didn't know what we did.Secondly, the object of his practice is not Zhou Song himself, but a pile of garbage, which is equivalent to voluntarily sorting the garbage dump.The last and most important point is that Zhou Song picked the things himself, and Junzi Feng and I didn't ask him for anything.This is such an insignificant matter, I am afraid that except for Feng Junzi, the tall people in the world will not care about it at all.But little things make sense.Feng Junzi said earlier that there are many loopholes in the three precepts, and Taoism still has many uses in the world, it depends on how you use it.good!Picked up a bunch of junk, and took a lesson by the way.

……

"Brother, I have some good news for you. After this summer, we don't have to meet in dreams all the time... When you come to see me, you don't have to be on this shrine all the time."

This is what Liu Yiyi said to me. At this time, I was sitting with Liu Yiyi on the altar of the mountain temple. She was still habitually leaning on my shoulder, holding one of my arms in her arms—no way , she can only stay in this place, and of course I am traveling in a dream.Feng Junzi didn't let me see Miss Ziying again, and she disappeared. I really feel a little unaccustomed to it, and I always feel that many meaningful things are missing in my life.Fortunately, there is Yiyi, I can still chat with her in my dream.

"This is really good news, what's going on?"

Liu Yiyi: "Junzi Feng told me that my cultivation is almost done, and I only need one step to transform into form. He said that on the fifteenth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar this year, he will teach me the first half of the "Transformation Chapter" of the Heavenly Book roll.……"

"Book of Heaven" "Transformation Chapter"?Why am I so familiar?Come to think of it, I once eavesdropped on the conversation between Junzi Feng and Sister Ziying.Feng Junzi told Sister Ziying that there is a two hundred and five to go to the Zhaoting Mountain Temple on May [-]th of this year's lunar calendar to give a lecture on the first half of the Book of Heaven.It turns out that this two hundred and five is Junzi Feng himself. When did this kid become so humble?He counts himself as two hundred and five.

"What is the Transformation of the Book of Heaven? Why is there only the first half?" I asked Liu Yiyi.

"I don't know, he didn't say it. He just said that there is only the first half and not the second half of the Transformation Chapter, and when he said it, people who heard it could only understand half of it.... I don't care if the half is or not. For a little half, as long as I can be with my brother often, after summer, I can go outside the temple with my brother to play..."

I finally know what two hundred and five means.The ancients used [-] Wen as a penny, so the half-diao is five hundred Wen, and the half-diao is two hundred and five.Feng Junzi's "Transformation Chapter" is only half a volume, and what he said can only be understood by others, so it is a half-baked, half-baked heavenly book!No matter what kind of two hundred and five he is, as long as he can transform Liu Yiyi out of trouble.

People's desires are really strange. Rich people want to make more money, and powerful people want to be bigger officials. They always feel that they are not happy enough.But for Liu Yiyi, her current desire is so simple, she just wants to go out of the mountain temple to take a look outside, and accompany me.Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling pity in my heart, and gently held Yiyi's hand.

Liu Yiyi has his own understanding, and obviously felt the emotion in my heart, she obediently did not speak, but leaned over her body, and buried her head in my chest like a kitten.I couldn't help stretching out my hand to stroke her long hair, and the atmosphere became more tender... At this moment, I heard someone coughing outside the temple gate, followed by someone talking: "Shi Ye, Liu Yiyi, Am I bothering you?"

……

At this time, there is no one else who comes out to spoil the scenery, but Gentleman Feng.Feng Junzi didn't come in, but stood outside the mountain temple and waited for me.After I came out, he waved to me, and when we got far away, he turned around and said, "How did I forget about this? I wanted to tell you that you won't be able to see Liu Yiyi for a while... but it turned out You really came to see her, fortunately I found out!"

"Why? Sister Ziying, you don't let me see you, you don't let me see you, and now Liu Yiyi doesn't let me meet. Don't you know how pitiful Yiyi is, staying in this ghost place every day, waiting for me to accompany her at night ..."

Feng Junzi: "Don't make you sound so noble, I think you are here to eat tofu, and when you don't have to eat wontons, you think of tofu... Don't I come here often? Why don't you see her treat me like that? In fact, I am For your own good, but also for her good!"

Feng Junzi told me that not only can I not go to the mountain temple to see Yiyi in the recent period, I can't even travel with the Yin God.Because I don't know what kind of expert is spying on me now, once my traveling ghost is trapped by an expert, it will be troublesome!Will Yinshen also encounter trouble when traveling?I haven't encountered it before, but last time I saw Hechen at Tang's father and son's house on a trip, and Hechen drove me back to the physical body at a glance. From then on, I knew that it was not for nothing dreadful.Feng Junzi said that the Three Dreams Dafa is very miraculous. According to the saying, there is nothing to block it when you reach the realm of fugue.

The result of Sun Wukong making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace was that he was imprisoned in Wuzhishan by Tathagata Buddha.And I made a big fuss in Qiyun Temple, and Feng Junzi trapped Xixiu in Zhaoting Mountain.In fact, when I think about it, I was the one who was really overwhelmed.There is no Ziying sister in life, there is no xiuxiu, there is no Liu Yiyi, and there is no fun of Yinshen traveling. What is the difference between this and Monkey King being suppressed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain?
There is still a little difference. I am still a middle school student during the day, and when I am not in class, I can still run around.For example, I can go to Fenghuang Bridge to chat with Mr. Zhang.Mr. Zhang didn't tell me that I can't come to him for a while.

……

"Boy, I'll give you a book. Go back and read it carefully. Whether you understand it or not, memorize it first."

Mr. Zhang threw me a book.When I looked at the cover, there were several large characters "Vajra Prajna Paramita Sutra" on it.Before I got into Taoism, when I read those martial arts novels, there was always a group of people fighting over a cheat book.However, later Junzi Feng taught me the way of alchemy, and the first book he gave me was "Zhuangzi" bought by Xinhua Bookstore, telling me that all cultivation begins with "Xin Zhai".So I wouldn't be surprised that the book Mr. Zhang threw to me wasn't some legendary secret book, but I still didn't expect that he would give me a Buddhist scripture.

"Mr. Zhang, why did you give me the Diamond Sutra? I'm not a monk."

Mr. Zhang smiled: "There are many people who read Buddhist scriptures instead of monks. I want you to read this "Diamond Sutra" so that you can learn three sentences. Sometimes it is very troublesome to talk to monks. Li, I feel dizzy from following him around. When you meet the living Buddha, in front of so many practitioners, I don’t want to see you being ashamed of your clumsy tongue. If he says you can’t answer, Just use these three sentences to stop that old lama's mouth."

Among the Buddhist disciples, none are better at "discussing" than Esoteric Buddhism and Zen Buddhism. Esoteric Buddhism's "debate" is a fixed ritual, while Zen monks' "playing the game" seems mysterious and even weird in the eyes of ordinary people.However, when monks from these two sects met, they often couldn't talk about going together.Practicing Buddhism in Tantric Buddhism pays most attention to the grades. For example, an ordinary monk (except the living Buddha) should start from the first grade "Lharangpa Geshe" and then go through "Cuorangpa Geshe", "Duorangpa Geshe". ", "Linse Geshe", "Rang Aba", "Quaker", "Wengze", "Khenpo", "Kansu", "Zi Fawang", "Fatai" and other multi-layered thrones.Zen Buddhism absorbed more of the "Tao" thought of Chinese native culture, especially since the sixth patriarch Huineng, the trend of "sudden enlightenment" has become more and more popular, and it has become the mainstream of Chinese Buddhism.

The main scripture on which Tantric Buddhism is based is the Sutra of Great Vairocana’s Transformation into a Buddha (referred to as the “Da Nikh Jing”), and an important classic that Zen Buddhism advocates is the “Diamond Sutra” given to me by Mr. Zhang.The three sentences that Mr. Zhang asked me to learn are: The person who said XX is not XX, but XX.For example: if the Tathagata talks about an old monk, he is not an old monk, but is called an old monk;This is the "Diamond Sutra syllogism" that Confucianists of Confucianism often joke about.

……

Reading Buddhist scriptures when you are lonely is also a kind of pastime.The days passed quickly, and soon came the fifteenth day of the fifth lunar month, which was Monday, June 1990th, [-].

I have heard twice that Feng Junzi will go to Zhaoting Mountain Temple to give a lecture on the "Transformation Chapter" of "Book of Heaven" on this night.Although I don't know what he is talking about, but Ziying can transform into a human body after hearing it, and Liu Yiyi can transform into a human body after hearing it, why am I not curious?Although I was curious, Feng Junzi never mentioned this matter to me.During the day, he still went to and from class as usual, without any abnormalities.I gradually became a little anxious.

After school in the afternoon, he didn't say hello to me, put his schoolbag in the desk drawer without taking it, and left shaking his hands.For the first time, I made a decision on my own - follow him!

It's not difficult to follow him, he wobbled not fast, and walked all the way to the old bus station.There are two bus stations in Wucheng, the new bus station is mainly for long-distance buses, and the old bus station is mainly for urban and rural short-distance buses.Feng Junzi bought a ticket and got on the bus. It was a car bound for Zhaoting Mountain.I also went to the window to buy a ticket, but the conductor told me that the tickets for that train were sold out, and that person bought five tickets at once.There is another shift in half an hour.I looked back and saw that the previous car had already left.

Inadvertently lost him like this!Feng Junzi bought the remaining five tickets, so that clearly means that he doesn't want me to follow him?why?It suddenly occurred to me that Feng Junzi was worried that someone would follow me secretly, and if I followed him again, he would be discovered along with him.He obviously didn't want too many people to know about what he did today.

After thinking about it, I still bought a bus ticket half an hour later.After getting in the car, I closed my eyes and fell silent, concentrated my spiritual sense and sensed around, and found no one spying on me secretly.Of course, if there are really people with very high cultivation bases, I'm afraid I won't be able to find them.I'm really worried about Liu Yiyi's place in Zhaoting Mountain, so I still have to go and have a look.

I got off at the foot of Zhaoting Mountain, made sure there was no one around, and went up the mountain.Instead of taking the main road that tourists usually take, I turned and got into a hidden path among the thorn bushes.Don't forget that I grew up in the Zhaoting mountain area, often dig winter bamboo shoots and pick hawthorns, and there are no roads on the mountain that I am not familiar with.Going around in the mountains, the sky is close to dusk at this time, and the light is dimmed. In this case, if you walk on a wild road in the mountains, even if it is a familiar road, you will get lost if you don’t pay attention, and you may even stumble and fall. In the mountain stream, it is almost impossible to follow a person.

More than an hour later, I waded through the Xuexi stream and entered the wild peach forest outside the mountain temple.I poked my head behind a peach tree and looked towards the gate of the mountain temple. —It's strange, the door is open, but there is no one around...

"What are you doing here?" The voice behind my ear startled me, and when I turned around, Junzi Feng was standing behind me.

"Feng Junzi, why did you hide behind me? You scared me!"

"You kid followed me all the way, and said I scared you?"

"So you found out a long time ago."

"Nonsense, just like you, only the blind can't see! You don't look like a stalker, like a young girl's rascal in the middle of the night....Come on, come on, the less people will do such a rebellious thing I'm going to do today It's better if you get involved, but since you know, you can be my gatekeeper."
