Yu Shimingyan

Chapter 65: Zen Master Mingwu Catch the 5 Precepts

Chapter 65
In the past, he was a guest in the Eastern Land and Huanzhong, but now he is a member of the Bodhi Association.Bringing poplar branches to the pure land, thinking about the past is the predecessor.It is said that in the past, Taizu of Tang Dynasty, surnamed Li and named Yuan, inherited the world of Sui Dynasty, established his capital in Chang'an, Shaanxi Province, and made new laws and regulations.Relying on the second son Shimin, 72 wolf smokes were cleared and 23 barbaric caves were subdued.Renamed Wude.The Literature Museum was built to extend [-] bachelors, and the Lingyan Pavilion was built to paint [-] heroes.Xiang Wei Zheng, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others ruled the world.Zhenguan, Zhiping, Kaiyuan, these reign titles are all governing the world.Only because in the last years of Xuanzong, Li Linfu, Lu Qi, Yang Guozhong, etc. were favored and appointed as treacherous ministers to call for the Anlu Mountain Rebellion.Later, although it was settled down, there were vassal tyranny outside, eunuchs exercised power inside, gentlemen retreated, villains advanced, and the end of the Tang Dynasty, there was no peace.

Let's say that there is a man in Luoyang, surnamed Li, named Yuan, and styled Zicheng. He is a man of great learning.Seeing that the government was upside down, he retired from official position, and became friends with Yuanze, the head monk of Huilin Temple in this place, and made close acquaintances.Ze is also famous for his poems all over Luo, full of virtue and deeds, he is an ancient Buddha in the past, a hero of the time, and everyone admires him.Every time I travel to the mountains and rivers with the source, look at the ancient times and find secluded places, enjoy the moon and sing the wind, feel happy and happy, write poems and prose, and the mountains and rivers are almost everywhere.Suddenly one day, we met in the same boat and went to the Three Gorges of Qutang to visit Tiankai Picture Temple.Yuan took a servant, Ze took a disciple, a total of four people set out on the boat.In less than half a month, when I arrived at the Three Gorges, the boat was moored on the shore, and my clothes rose up.Suddenly I saw a woman, about [-] years old, wearing old clothes outside, brocade crotch inside, pregnant with Liujia, carrying tile poppy on her back and drawing a clear spring.When Yuanze saw it, he was displeased. He pointed to Li Yuan and said, "This pregnant woman is someone's shelter. Tomorrow morning, I will go west." Yuanze said: "I am dead now, so I have my own words to say goodbye to each other." The four of them entered the temple, and the monks joined in.

After tea, everyone was amazed by the reason why Yuanze prepared the way.After taking a bath in Ze Naixiang soup, after distributing the distribution to his disciples, he bid farewell to Yuan, saying: "Ze Jin was lucky to be born in forty days, and he has a very close friendship with you. Now the deadline is coming, so we have to say goodbye. In the next three days, I begged to visit Yi's house. A place where you can take care of your body. Take a bath for three days, take a smile as a test, and I will die this evening. In the next 12 years, I will meet you at Tianzhu Temple in Hangzhou." He took a pen and paper and wrote a eulogy for his death: "For 40 years, the body Empty, more than poems, wine, music, and heart. Don’t leave old friends today, and meet Xia Zhufeng in the future. Hey! Illusion body returns to the world of mortals, wins the king’s house and meets again.” After the verse, he turned into a lotus.The monks in this temple have their clothes and niches, and they are sent into the rocks of the back mountain. Elder Yuefeng of this temple is asked to set fire to them.After the monks had finished chanting sutras, Yuefeng sat on the sedan chair, held a torch, and made an interrogation. Daoism is the style. Gongwei passed away, Yuanze Zen Master Tangtou, the great monk's enlightenment, said: Weiling was born in Henan and grew up in Luoyang. Since entering Buddhism, there is no hindrance in the heart. Swallowing rivers and seas with wine, weeping ghosts and gods with poems. Just thinking about playing with water to find Mountains, not tired of coarse clothing and food. Handed over to Li Yuan of the contract, toured the Three Gorges of Qutang. Because of seeing a pregnant woman, she was burdened with poppies, but she thought of leaving herself. See you in Hangzhou again, and meet again today to make the contract. Now sent to Li Palace , Listen to the mountain monk's instructions. Duh! Three lives will go down to Zhufeng, and look for traces by the Gehong well." Song Bi.After the tea ceremony, he saw a stream of green smoke in the fire, piercing through the clouds, and Yuanze's whole body was revealed in the smoke, he put his palms together and walked away towards the sky.Less Yan, the relics are like rain.All the monks put their bones into the pagoda, Li Yuan was very sad.

The first monk stayed in the temple at the source and stayed idle for several days. On the third day, the source even visited the residents in front of the temple.Not half a mile to the temple, there was a family, surnamed Zhang, who had given birth to a son three days ago. He is currently in the third dynasty and is bathing at home.Yuan Nai begged to see him, but he refused.The source tells the whole story, bribes with gold and silk, and orders the source to the middle hall.The woman was taking a bath with her son in her arms. When the child saw Yuan, he really smiled, and Yuan returned home overjoyed.It's late, the child dies.Yuan Naibie elders go home.No problem.Day to month, the stars shift and change, and it will be more than ten years before you know it.In the third year of Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty rebelled, and the world was in turmoil, and all surnames were displaced.The king was lucky in Shu, but the people's houses and palaces were all burned by war, and there was nothing left.Thanks to Li Keyong, the king of Jin, he raised troops to destroy the nest, Xi Zonglong returned to the old capital, the world was slightly settled, and the road was opened.The origin is due to the breeding of goods, and it came to Hangzhou on Jiangsu and Zhejiang Road.When it is Qingming, it is the beautiful scenery on a good day, and the tourists on the North Mountain in the West are like ants.Yuansi 12 years ago Yuanze said: meet in Tianzhu.But walking with the crowd.Seeing the river between two mountains, the clear stream is lovely and tirelessly enjoyable.Unconsciously, I walked into the west corridor of Xiazhu Temple to see Ge Hong's alchemy well.After turning into the temple, I saw a big stone facing the stream, and the spring flowed beside it.Yuanxin was overjoyed, so he didn't sit for a while.Suddenly I heard the singing of Gechuan.Yuan saw a shepherd boy, about twelve or thirteen years old, riding on the back of an ox and singing across the water.The source of the heart is different, and I listen to his song: "The old spirit on the Sansheng Stone, don't talk about watching the moon and singing the wind. I am ashamed that my lover is visiting from afar, although the opposite sex always exists in this body." It also said: "The things before and after the body are boundless, and I want to talk I was heartbroken at that time. Wuyue has traveled all over the mountains and rivers, but he went to Qutang in search of smoke." After singing, I saw the little boy looking at Li Yuan from a distance, clapping his hands and laughing.Yuan was amazed and eager to cross the river to ask each other, but he couldn't get it.Looking at the shepherd boy in the distance, crossing willows and forests, he doesn't know where he is going.Li Yuan was so melancholy that he sat on the stone for a long time.Asked by the monk, he replied: "This is Ge Zhichuan Stone." Yuan Shen detailed his poem, which is the words of Yuanze in 12 years, and it is recorded in the fire text under the moon peak.So far, meeting in Xiazhu happened to be Sansheng!Visiting the child's residence, and saying nothing, Yuan came back dispirited.The stone of Gezhichuan, where Huyuan sits, is called the "Sansheng Stone" by later generations, and the monuments still exist today.Later, Qu Zongji wrote a poem: "Purple crotches are reflected in the clear waves, and the boats in the gorge are met by chance. How many things are going on behind the body? Marriage is said on the Sansheng Stone." Wang Yuanhan also wrote a poem: "Being in the world is clearly a dream soul, before and after the body. Who can say? The Sansheng Stone at the foot of the Sunset Mountain has left absurd traces."

This passage is called "Three Lives Meet".Now let me tell you another story about the reunion of the two generations, it is "Ming Wu Zen master catches up with the five precepts", and it is also said to be "the elder Foyin Du Dongpo".

It is said that during the Zhiping period of Emperor Yingzong of the Great Song Dynasty, I went to the Jingci Xiaoguang Temple in Nanshan, outside the Qiantang Gate of the Ninghai Navy in Zhejiang Province, which is a famous ancient temple.There are two eminent monks in this monastery, they are brothers and sisters, one is called Chan Master Wujie, and the other is called Chan Master Mingwu.This Zen master Wujie is 31 years old, with a strange description, blind on the left side, and a body less than five feet. He was born in Luoyang, Xijing.Smart since he was a child, he can write with a pen, play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and know everything.When he grows up, he becomes a monk, Zen Buddhism, and he is very good at practicing Zen and Taoism.The common surname is Jin, and the legal name is Wujie.And ask what are the "five precepts"?The first precept is not to kill life; the second precept is not to steal property; the second precept is not to listen to lewd voices; the fourth precept is not to drink alcohol or engage in meat; the fifth precept is not to speak falsely.This is called the "five precepts".Suddenly, he wandered to this temple and visited Zen Master Daxing.The Zen master saw that he understood the five precepts, so he stayed in the temple and became a disciple of Shangse.Not many years later, Chan Master Daxing passed away, and the monks of this temple appointed him as the abbot, and he meditated every day.The second one is called Zen Master Mingwu. He is 29 years old. He was born with a round head and big ears, a wide face and a square mouth.Commonly surnamed Wang, he was smart since he was a child, and he practiced Zen and Taoism.Later, he traveled to Ninghaijun and visited Zen Master Wujie at Jingci Temple.The Zen master saw that he was very clever, so he stayed in the monastery as a teacher.Two people are born of one mother, and they are good.But when they met the Dharma, the two ascended to the Dharma seat together and talked about Buddhism.No problem.

Suddenly one day, at the end of winter and the beginning of spring, the sky was very cold, cloudy and snowy, and it fell for two days.On the third day, the snow was clear and the sky was fine.Zen Master Wujie was sitting on the abbot's Zen chair early in the morning, and he could hear a child crying in the distance.At that time, he called a Taoist who knew his heart and confidant, called Qing Yi, and said: "You can go to the various places outside the mountain gate to see what is going on, and come and tell me." Qing said: "Elder, it has snowed for two days, Fang Qing today, I don't expect anything to happen." The elder said: "You should read the conversation quickly." Qing Yi couldn't make excuses, so he had to walk to the mountain gate.It was not yet dawn at that time, and the gate of the mountain was never opened.Jiaomen opened the mountain gate, and when Qing Yi took a look, he was surprised.Dao: "Excellent, excellent!" As the saying goes: use convenience every day, and always arouse the mind of Dao.But do things equally, don't ask about the future.At that time, Qingyi saw a broken mat on the snowy ground of pine roots outside the mountain gate, and put a child there.He said in his mouth: "It's bitter, it's bitter! Why do people leave this child here? Either freeze to death or starve to death!" Going forward and taking a closer look, it was a daughter of five or six months old, who took a broken head Wrapped, there is a note in his arms, on which the date of birth is written.Qing didn't say anything, but thought in his heart: "The ancients said: saving one's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda." He hurried back to the abbot, and told the elder: "I don't know anyone, but a five- to seven-month-old girl , wrapped in rags, and left on the root of a pine tree outside the mountain gate. In this cold weather, and no one is coming and going, how can you do it conveniently? Save him!" The elder said: "Good, good! Qingyi, it's rare for you to be kind. You Now take him back to the room, give him some porridge and rice sooner or later, feed him up, and give it to others. Saving his life is better than being a family member."

At that time, Qingyi hurried out, took his daughter to the abbot's house, and replied to the elder.The elder looked at it and said, "Qingyi, let me see that note." Qingyi handed it to the elder.When the elder looked at it, he wrote: "I was born at noon on June [-] this year, and my nickname is Honglian." " According to Qingyi's words, he carried him to the back of the Thousand Buddha Hall, in a three-story four-rafter one-story house, set some fire on him, baked him in the fire box, and fed him some porridge.Like this day and month, hiding in an empty room, no one knows, even the elders have forgotten.Unexpectedly, Honglian is already ten years old.Qingyi saw that he was handsome, and he hid in the room, locked the door and closed the door, and was cautious.

Time flies like an arrow, and the sun and the moon fly like a shuttle.Suddenly, the red lotus girl grew up to be 16 years old, and she was treated like her own daughter.Although she is a woman, she only dresses up like a man, with clothes, shoes and socks, hair on her head, eyebrows in front and neck in back, like a small tutu.And he was born clearly, eating, drinking, and sewing in the room.Qingyi hopes to find a son-in-law, and wants him to retire in retirement.

One day, when it was a hot day in June, Chan Master Wujie suddenly thought about what happened more than ten years ago.After bathing and eating porridge, I went straight to the Qianfo Pavilion.Qingyi said, "Elder Xixing." The elder said: "Let me ask you, where is the red lotus that I held in my arms that year?" Separate the eight top yang bones and pour down half a bucket of ice and snow.When the elder saw Honglian, he lost his mind for a moment, and his evil heart arose, he said with a smile: "Qingyi, you can send Honglian to my bedroom tonight, there must be no mistake. If you follow me, I will praise you You, this matter must not be leaked, just teach him to be a little Tutuo, don't let people see that he is a woman." Qing agreed in one mouth, thinking in his heart: "If you want to treat the elders, it is difficult for the elders; if you accept the elders, go tonight When you enter the room, you will destroy your female body: it will be extremely difficult." The elder saw that Qingyi was unhappy, so he said, "Qingyi, you lock the door and come with me to the room." Qingyi followed the elder and walked to the room.The elder went to the suitcase, took out ten taels of silver, and cleared them together, saying: "Use these, and I will ask you for Taoism tomorrow, and I will shave you as an apprentice. What do you think?" Qing said: "Thank you The elder praises you." I had to collect the money and say goodbye to the elder.Back in the room, he said to Honglian in a low voice: "My son, it was the elder of the temple who just came. He saw you and loved you in his heart. When the night is quiet, I will send you to serve the elder. Be careful , there must be no mistake." Seeing what her father said, Hong Lian agreed.In the evening, the two had dinner.Around the second watch, Qingyi took the red lotus and went to the elder's room, the doors and windows were not obstructed.It turned out that the elder had two walkers waiting by his side, and he paid for it that night: "I want to go out for a walk to enjoy the shade, and the doors and windows are not closed." Therefore, there is no hindrance.The elder waited in the room for Qingyi to send Honglian to come. At the second watch, he saw Qingyi sending Xiao Toutuo to the room.The elder went into the room and paid Qingyi: "You come and take him back to the room at this time tomorrow." Qingyi went back to the room by himself.

Let's say that the elder closed the door of the room, put out the glazed lamp, held the red lotus hand, and came to the bed.Teach Honglian to take off her clothes, the elder hugged her forward, hugged her in her arms, and put her on the bed.But it looks like: mandarin ducks playing in water, phoenixes wearing flowers.Xizi Zizi makes a connection, and the sweetness and sweetness lead to the same heart.Just the sound of the warbler is inseparable from the ears; the sweet saliva is spitting out, and the tip of the tongue is sticking out with a smile.Willow waist, spring pulse pulse; cherry mouth, slightly panting.The starry eyes are hazy, and the delicate sweat is fragrant and jade body; the breasts are rippling, and the peony heart is dripping with dew.A first-time invasion of female sex is like a hungry tiger devouring a sheep; a first-time encounter with a man is like a thirsty dragon getting water.It's a pity that the bodhi nectar is poured into the two petals of the red lotus.

On that day, the elder and Hong Lianyun harvested the rain and dispersed, but it was five o'clock, and the sky was about to brighten.The elder thought about a plan, Zensheng hid him in the room?There was a coat kitchen in the room, the elder unlocked it, packed all the items in the kitchen, but taught Honglian to sit in the kitchen, and said: "I will eat the food with you in the future, but don't worry, Ning Nai will have it." Honglian is a girl's house, she was seduced by the elders for the first time, and she was also happy in her heart, so she hid in the kitchen and locked the lock.After a while, the elder went to the hall to chant scriptures, entered the room, closed the door, unlocked the kitchen, released red lotus, ate food and drink with him, put some fruits in the kitchen, and locked it first.At night, Qingyi came to the room and took Honglian back to the room.

But it shows that Zen Master Wu came back from samadhi on the Zen chair that night, and Huiyan knew that Zen Master Wujie had made a mistake, violated the precept of lust, raped the red lotus, and wasted years of pure practice. "I advise him not to do this today." He didn't say anything.On the next day, at the end of June, red and white lotus flowers were in full bloom in the pool outside the gate.Elder Mingwu ordered the traveler to pick a white lotus, and then went back to his room, took a vase and put it in, and taught the Taoist to prepare a cup of tea in the room.But he taught the traveler to invite Zen Master Wujie: "I will admire the lotus with him, and we will have a conversation while reciting poems." Not long after, the traveler invited Zen Master Wujie.The two elders sat down and said clearly: "Senior brother, I saw lotus flowers in full bloom today. I folded one of them in a bottle for the beautiful scenery. I would like to ask my senior brother to recite poems and clear words." Tea arrives.After tea, Zen Master Mingwu said: "Walker, take the four treasures of the study." The traveler took it in front of him, and Wujie said: "What is the subject?" Mingwu said: "Then take the lotus as the subject." The four lines of the poem said: "A branch of scorpion has just opened its petals, and it is accompanied by sunflowers and pomegranates. Although the fire-like pomegranate is cute, it is like a green cover and a lotus fragrance?" Huh?" As soon as I started writing, I wrote four lines of poems: In spring, the peaches and apricots are all stretched out, and thousands of pistils and thousands of flowers are blooming.Summer appreciation of lotus is so cute, red lotus is like white lotus?Elder Mingwu followed the rhyme and laughed loudly.
