Faithful to Buddha, Faithful to You

Chapter 19 The Great Temple of Xuan Xuan Xuan Dynasty (1)

I woke up in the morning with a squeak. I painstakingly opened my sleepy eyes and saw a tall, thin cut, standing in the sun in one room.

“Rosh, how come it's so early...”

“Yes, I'm sorry!” The back light, I can't see his expression, I just hear the voices a little loud. He pulled out in a hurry and the door closed again with a "squeak”.

It's only 7: 30 when I look through the timetable. I forgot, he gets up at over 4: 00 every day, makes breakfast between 5: 00 and 6: 00, then breakfast. It's too late for him. Still sleepy, a little more lazy bed, reluctantly getting up.

Follow Rosh out around 9: 00. The little city of Subash is already very lively, with monks, housekeepers, businessmen, crowded with streets that aren't big enough. I didn't want to cause him any trouble and insisted on pulling a distance from him. He pauses from time to time, looks behind him, and moves on.

He seemed to be very close to the local people, and from time to time he was approached by people who offered him 10 courtesies. A couple prayed to him with a seemingly newborn baby in their arms. He touched the baby's head and read a scripture, and the couple were happy to thank him for leaving. He turned back and smiled warmly at me. He went back and continued to give back his gift.

Out of Subash City you reach the West Temple Gate with a beautifully decorated corner building on the fence. “More than 10,000 Turtle monks make up almost a tenth of the Turtle population”. Five thousand monks left the temple alone. The Buddhism of Turz thrives, as can be seen from the departure of the birds from the Great Temple. At this moment, the freckles are far from the great temple, but they are already magnificent. While the lady was in possession of Humorosh, she was "doubly intelligent, smelling that the birds had left the great temple name as many virtues as well as honorable monks, that is to say, with the royal noble daughter De Xiuzhuni, set up daily sustenance, please fasting the way”. So what Rosh was taught in the womb was Buddha. Is it related to his high IQ?

Oh, I can't hide the thought of YY, holding back the laughter and walking into the square urn that came with the door. In the middle of the castle there is a square Buddha's Palace, dedicated to the Buddha's statue of the Buddha's Buddha's Buddha. I immediately stopped thinking, came up with professionalism and prepared a sketchbook.

“Ai Qing, take it easy. I'll show you the whole thing first, and you'll draw it before it's too late. ”

“Really?” I'm surprised, "Yeah, you're the host, privileged. I'll do it every day, okay? ”

“Naturally.” He smiled lightly. The sun shines in the summer, and the whole person is too bright to see directly.

Forced himself to look away: "Rosh, where's that giant jade with Buddha's footprints? Show me. ”

“You heard about this jade stone?” He was somewhat surprised and looked at me: “This is the treasure of the town temple where the freckles leave the great temple. ”

Oh, how do I know? Do you have to tell me? Xuanxi had witnessed it and recorded it in The Great Tangxi Realm. At the end of the nineteenth century, a Russian treasure hunter dug it up and smashed it into two pieces for transport, but it was protected by the locals. After liberation, the jade stone was transported to the Beijing Nature Museum, a large piece weighing more than 1,200 kg and a small piece weighing more than 700 kg. Now, I don't have to go to Beijing to see this jade stone, or the full version. Can I not be excited? So when I followed Rosh into a small hall decorated with gorgeous decorations, and I saw that giant jade stone with a clear body and yellow and white colour like a sea clam, I couldn't help but regret not being able to bring my camera. The whole stone is about 30 centimeters wide, half a meter long and a dozen centimeters tall. The so-called Buddha's footprint is the two grooves formed naturally in the middle of the jade stone, and the position is just two feet can be differentially stepped on top. Oh, there are too many of these attachments, Tibet is full of lotus peanut masters' footprints, but they are attachments to naturally occurring trees, stones, so that the people can recognize the so-called Buddha.

But the thought didn't dare to tell Rosh, learn to look like him and respectfully kowtow to Jade Stone. After coming out of the Jade Stone Palace, he saw a long corridor behind him, strangely covered on both sides, seemingly dim and seemingly endless.

I was looking at that strange corridor, and Rosh said softly around me, "That's where the big bans are. You are a man of the house. You are not allowed to enter by law. ”

Full ring! It's like graduating from Buddhist disciples' college with a diploma. It is only with full restraint that you are fully qualified and qualified to become a Bichou. Young Rosh became famous, and the boundaries of Buddhism have long been unparalleled. However, even those who have reached such a state of science still have to meet a series of requirements for Buddhist monasteries. So even though Roche has already mastered the great truth of Buddhism, he must accept full precepts at the age of twenty, just like ordinary monks.

I have also seen the Mandarin Temple near Shijiazhuang in Hebei, Zheng Dinglong Xing Temple, but there are no long and dim corridors like this. There are few such temples in the country that can be given full precepts. Only temples with high specifications can be given precepts. And the sparrow leaves the temple, which is where the whole turtle is eligible to be ordained.

Walk into a long, dark corridor, and everybody should be thinking, right? Have you decided to accompany Green Light Godfather in your lifetime? Have you abandoned all love in your life? In this lifetime, are you ready to assume the responsibility of promoting Buddha law? This is a slow journey to the end of the ring altar. Three magicians, seven witnesses, shaky razors, solemn chanting, since then, life and death, away from greed, the worldly world has nothing to do with it...

I looked back at Rosh, and he was staring out into the dark corridor. Rosh, are you thinking about the precepts too? Do you really have nothing to do with the world?

Walking into a badly lit hall, the monks who were worshipping Buddha bowed respectfully to Rosh, who nodded and spoke Sanskrit to him. This Buddhist hall is not large, only in the middle of the sacrifice of the Tibetan King Bodhisattva, all walls are murals. I can recognize this as the Tibetan Bodhisattva, because the most distinctive feature of his Buddha's statue is the long sceptre in his hand. It is said that Tibetan bodhisattva vowed that “all life will be exhausted and the bodhisattva will bear witness. Hell is not empty, and it will not be Buddha." In other words, the object of his work is the creation of the most serious sins in hell. So after the spread of Buddhism in the Middle Plains, Tibetan Bodhisattva was very influential, alongside Wenshi, Puxian and Guanyin as the four main Bodhisattva, Anhui Jiuhua Mountain is his narrative dojo.

I was drawing a detailed distinction between the style of Tibetan bodhisattva in the west and that of later Nakahara, and I saw the monk holding an oil lamp in his hand and handing it to Rosh, then quitting silently. Rosh raised his hand and the oil lamp lit up the mural in front of him, but with a striking broken arm, a painful facial expression, and all sorts of bloody instruments.

“The murals here depict the suffering of the eight great hells. ”

No wonder Hidden Bodhisattva is sacrificed. The whole temple is so dark that the faithful can see through the bitter images of hell with fear. Mural paintings like this are basically found in temples of a certain size.

I know the eight hell, but I don't remember the name of every hell, so I begged him to explain it to me.

“This is a living hell. The sinners who have fallen here are still affectionate and will miss their loved ones. Then hand claws, when we meet each other, grab each other with claws. Or die of confusion, grasping themselves, until flesh and blood are exhausted. When the cold wind blows, the flesh survives and suffers again. His tone was intolerable, and he repeated," Whoever commits the crime of murder, defamation of justice and defamation of the law is condemned to this prison. ”

I nodded as I watched the mural. As his light moves forward. There were only two of us in the empty and dim hall, and his gentle voice echoed slightly like a pearl, and his mind suddenly cleared.

“This is Hell of a Black Rope, with prison guards tying the guilty with hot rope, or clawing or sawing. Ten times more distressed than before. Whoever creates life and steals it falls into this prison.” The lights moved forward again, "Hell all together, the prison guards drove the sinners into the Iron Mountains, the sinners were squeezed by the Iron Mountains and the flesh bones were broken. Whoever commits the crime of murder, theft, or lewdness shall be condemned to this prison. ”

“Call Hell, or cast the sinner into heat and boil; or drive the sinner into a flaming chamber; or pluck the sinful population, fill it with closing copper, and burn five dirt. Whoever commits murder, theft, lewdness, falsehood, drinking, falls into this prison. And if Buddhist disciples commit five commandments, whether they run away from home or not, they go to hell screaming. The torment of Hell is as it was called before, but it is even more painful. ”

Rin, the punishment for Buddhist men is even heavier.

“Cozy Hell, where the sinner lies on hot iron, crushed from head to toe, with a big hot iron rod into chyme. And whosoever commits five commandments, and is unjust, he shall be cast into it.” The hand with the oil lamp suddenly stopped, shaking slightly. The shadows hit the walls, and the images of the painful screams became blurred in the shakes.

“Rosh, what's wrong?” Looking up, he was just a step away from me, and the dim lights lit up his confusion, and the slightest pain quickly disappeared, and he set his mind to himself, and he continued: “Whoever kills, steals, obsesses, evils and defiles the Buddhist monks, he will die in a scorching hell. The punishment for the sinners of this prison is like a scorching hell, and it is more painful than before.

His voice was filled with bitterness, and it must have been the hell set aside for the culprits to impress him. Buddhism is tougher on its followers, and two of the eight great hells are set up for the Buddhists in the Gate.
