Chapter 131 Great Wish Ksitigarbha King

Zhou Shui's forehead swelled up quickly, his eyes became tight, and his head became dizzy.Ruyu was very anxious, but she didn't dare to blame Zhou Shui, she put her arms around Zhou Shui's head and sighed.

At this time Zhou Shui heard someone talking.The voice was soft and pleasant, kind and serene: "Amitabha, do you need help from the poor monk?"

Zhou Shui suddenly saw a man dressed as a monk walking slowly from the pedestrian street, Zhou Shui struggled to get up to meet the ceremony, but his head was still dizzy, so he had to give up.

I just heard Ruyu say hello to the visitor: "Master, my friend is injured, can you call me for help, 120 or 999 are fine."

The monk seemed to think about it for a while, and replied: "The doctors here may not be able to cure your friend's injuries. It doesn't matter. The poor monk also has some medical skills."

Zhou Shui felt the monk sit down beside him, and then gently rubbed his forehead with a hand.Ordinarily, it should have hurt a few times, but Zhou Shui felt as if there was a warm water flowing on his forehead. Not only did he not feel any discomfort in the wound, but he was also very comfortable.

Listen to Ruyu and the monk said: "Master, do you know why we can't get through here? We want to go out, but there is always something blocking us. I hate it."

Only the monk smiled faintly: "There is a heart of inside and outside first, and then there is a distinction between inside and outside. If the heart has no inside and outside, how can it come in and out? Obstacles come from the heart. If the heart has no obstacles, why do you need to go in and out? Female Bodhisattva, this state is In that realm, just settle your thoughts.”

Zhou Shui's heart skipped a beat.Ting Ruyu said again: "Master, where is this? We came in through a corridor. Why is there no sun here? I can't tell the east, west, north, south."

The monk said: "In the heart. Only the heart is an insurmountable barrier. It is not difficult to get out from here, but the difficulty is to let this out of your heart. Remember, the heart has no place to stay, that is, there is no trouble. All of this is an illusion. Appearance, that is, in Buddhism, it is self-seeking troubles."

Ruyu didn't seem to understand: "Master, I still don't understand. Have we met before? The first time I saw you, I felt very close to you."

The monk was still smiling.Said softly: "All living beings and I are old friends."

Ruyu laughed too, and said, "Master is quite humorous. Where do you live? I'll visit you when I have time. You can go to Qinyang as well. I'll be your tour guide and treat you to dinner."

The monk suddenly became serious, and said: "Bodhisattva, if this place is not empty for a day, the wish of the poor monk will not be fulfilled. You can't come, and I can't go either. Want to eat? The poor monk has a heart."

After a short pause, the monk said again: "As for you, the karma of this life will be completely wiped out because of the word "eating". Female Bodhisattva, you will live a hundred years in peace and free from worries in this life."

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Shui's heart flickered for a moment.At this time, the monk seemed to start chanting mantras. Zhou Shui carefully identified it as the heart mantra of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.Hearing this incantation, Zhou Shui didn't dare to lie down anymore, and hurriedly sat up cross-legged, paying respect.

After chanting the mantra, Zhou Shui felt that the injury on his forehead was much better.Opening his eyes, he saw a middle-aged monk opposite, with red lips and white teeth, and a handsome face.He was wearing a very ordinary gray monk's attire, sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a compassionate and peaceful expression.The monk said to Zhou Shui: "If there is an unsolved obstacle, the poor monk can tell you."

Zhou Shui looked at the monk, and suddenly became dependent, turned over and knelt down, and made three prostrations.The injury on Zhou Shui's forehead seemed to have completely healed. There was a thumping sound on his head, but he didn't feel any pain at all.Zhou Shui asked the monk: "Master, my disciples remember that this is just a mural in the corridor of the underground palace. Where can such a large world be placed? I also ask Master to enlighten me."

The monk smiled brightly and spoke clearly: "One flower is one world, one leaf is one bodhi. There is also a thousand things in a mustard seed. Good man, it's not that the murals are smaller, but the world is empty."

Zhou Shui seemed to have comprehended it, and asked again: "In the tunnel, when a disciple walks all the way, every time he turns his head, there are always differences in the traces. Let's take the two feet as an example. One foot is deep and the other is shallow, and the shoe prints are often different. How do you explain it?"

The monk also taught Zhou Shuidao: "This corridor is actually a shortcut of the six paths. Only through the suffering of the six paths can all living beings feel the joy of liberation. After being sharpened by the six paths, they can first prove Bodhi. This is the way practitioners are accustomed to. You go through the six paths , each realm is different, and the traces are naturally different."

Zhou Shui already felt that this monk must be a Buddha and Bodhisattva.Zhou Shui's mind became more and more determined, he kowtowed again and asked, "How can I see the real body of the relic?"

The monk replied solemnly and respectfully: "The real body is as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River, and it is everywhere in the six realms. As for how to see it, here is a verse: Open up like a flower, and the flower blooms to see the Buddha."

Zhou Shui still didn't quite understand it, but since it was a gatha, naturally he couldn't be too straightforward, and it would just be fulfilled in the future.

Zhou Shui asked the monk again: "Master, when I walked through the corridor, I felt a strange feeling, as if a force was attracting me, and I seemed to be nostalgic."

The monk said: "What's so strange about this? All beings in the six realms are your parents for many lifetimes. There must be a great cause and effect in the process, and the cycle cannot stop. All these are caused by karma, and it will not hinder it."

Zhou Shui asked again: "Master, is this in a dream, or in a painting? It is said that the ancients made paintings, but what they painted were the appearances of today's people. This disciple is very confused, so I ask the master to enlighten me."

The monk smiled and said: "It is neither in a dream nor in a painting. It is in the "karma". In this "karma", there is only black and white, and there is no ancient or modern. The power of a "karma" can be found everywhere. There are ancient people? How can there be modern people? Today’s people are also ancient people, and ancient people are also today’s people.”

The monk taught the Dharma in a simple way, and Zhou Shui felt that this monk was very unusual.Zhou Shui kowtowed three more times, looked up at the monk, and asked reverently, "Do you respectfully receive the title of the master?"

The monk smiled and said: "You have chanted the name of the poor monk a million times, but you are confused when you see your true face. People say that patience is like the earth, and meditation is as deep as a secret treasure. What it means is Poor monk."

As soon as these words came out, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day—a great wish from the King of Tibet!The one who talked to Zhou Shui was Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.As soon as the Bodhisattva finished speaking, there was a loud sound on the ground, and a golden lotus flower sprang out of the ground out of thin air.

At this time, the great bodhisattva showed his true body, and his body grew rapidly, reaching a height of one zhang six feet.The real body stands on a golden lotus flower, with a Buddha crown on his head, a dharma robe, and golden tassels all over his body.The posture is stretched, and the Dharma is comfortable and solemn.

The Bodhisattva looked down compassionately, and explained Zhou Shui, saying: "This is hell, you should know it."

Zhou Shui had mixed feelings in his heart when he saw the Bodhisattva's real body.Seeing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in person is an honor that hundreds of millions of Buddhist disciples dare not even imagine. Zhou Shui felt a strong feeling of being flattered.This happiness came so suddenly, Zhou Shui just kowtowed as if in a dream.

However, Zhou Shui also faintly felt a little surprised. This hell was very different from the hell mentioned in "Ksitigarbha King Bodhisattva's Vows Sutra". Zhou Shui was very confused for a while.
