Chapter 4 Swinging the Sword and Breaking the Love
The sparse stars sprinkle the clear light and fall among the rolling mountains. The soft light passes through the dense canopy, dyeing the forest before the early morning with a hazy color, and embellishing a few faint mottled spots on the clearings in the forest. The whole forest is quiet, and the mountain wind occasionally blows the light sound of the leaves, making the forest look quiet.
Because there was a fine snow in the first half of the night, there were still some sparse ice and snow left in the woods at this moment, and it would easily make people slip when they stepped on it. As a pharmacist who was not good at fighting, Mei Xue naturally didn't walk fast in such an environment. She walked almost an hour before she reached the halfway up the mountain.
However, it's not just for this reason.
What made his steps heavy was the diary in his arms.
He himself didn't understand why he had decided to cut off the worldly relationship. From then on, those who entered Buddhism could not let go of this diary, and even took it with him to meet the Master Huiguo.
Sure enough, it is not that simple to cut off your past thoughts.
Perhaps, after truly entering Buddhism, such troubles will naturally disappear. With this idea, Mei Xue accelerated her pace a little, and she could vaguely see the outline of the top of the mountain and the standing figure.
Sure enough, the master was waiting there for him. I don’t know how long he had been waiting, but maybe he had been here since the two separated. Mei Xue was really sorry for letting a master who practiced the true method in this kind of place that was rarely visited.
"Sorry, Master, I'm late." After climbing to the top of the mountain with some breathlessness, the first thing Mei Xue did was to apologize to Master Huiguo.
There was already a layer of thin snow at the feet of Master Huiguo in front of him, and the temperature on the top of the mountain was much lower than that at the foot of the mountain. From the snow that had not melted at all and even passed by Master Huiguo's feet, he must have been waiting for him here for not moving all night.
Waiting for him all night on this snowy night, this spiritual practice alone is enough to prove that his choice is not wrong. This is a true master of virtue, and it is definitely not those wine and meat monks who sell dog meat with the title of sheep.
He did not choose to enter Buddhism on impulse, but he truly understood his physical defects and decided to bid farewell to his past and embark on a new road to life.
Perhaps, it is really the same as what this Master Huiguo said, that he has a fate with the Buddha.
"It's not too late, not too late at all." Looking at Mei Xue's clear eyes, Huiguo felt more and more that this trip was true.
Not to mention one night, as long as you can pass the young man in front of you into Buddhism, you will have to wait for three days, three years, or thirty years.
Amitabha, I am above. Today, I am fortunate to extradite a destined person with wisdom into my Buddhist sect. It is a blessing for the Buddhist sect.
This son is firm in spirit and wise in mind. He is a talent who revives my Buddhism. Now that the immortal path is prosperous, such talents are needed to maintain the continuous inheritance of my Buddhism.
"Have you decided to enter the Lingshan Dharma?" Although people who understand that wisdom are talented people who are not born in Buddhism, Master Huiguo still asked Mei Xue according to the rules.
Buddha saves people with fate, even if they are people with wisdom, if they reject the meaning of Buddhist scriptures, they can only sigh. This person has no fate with me in this life.
"Yes, my intention has been decided, cut off the worldly relationship and enter the Buddhist temple to cultivate the mind." Mei Xue nodded and expressed her decision.
Ninety-nine confessions and ninety-nine breakups, perhaps this is a warning. He should not be obsessed with it anymore. Letting go of these worldly relationships and entering Buddhism to practice the wise god is the right way.
"Very good, very good, then I will start your introductory ritual." Master Huiguo's white eyebrows trembled, and the meditation of the meditation that had been practicing for many years was approaching loss again.
After entering Buddhism for a hundred years, I thought I had already reached the state of unmoving mind, but after meeting Mei Xue who had wisdom, Huiguo's quiet meditation was almost useless.
Thinking about it now, after passing through this small hill at the transit point of the sea, the decision to travel to this Tiantai Mountain is really a reminder from the Buddha. It is rare for a person with wisdom to come out for thousands of years.
So even if it was a bit unruly, Master Huiguo decided to hold Mei Xue’s introductory ceremony on the spot to avoid any foul play.
"Master, I am a pharmacist. I have practiced some basic medicine refining magic. Isn't it okay?" Mei Xue didn't know much about Buddhism. Before that, he practiced the authentic immortal path and became a primary medicine master.
"It's okay, it's okay. Among my Buddha, there is the Oriental Medicine Buddha, who gives medicine and compassion to save all living beings. Buddhism also has the art of refining medicine."
"That's good, I'm ready." Mei Xue took a deep breath and calmly waited for the arrival of the Buddhist introductory ceremony.
However, the diary in my arms seemed to be a little hot. Is this an illusion?
"You can hear that, I have thousands of scriptures in Buddhism, but only one volume can be called this sutra, which is the meeting of the Buddha. This sutra is the Heart Sutra of Prajna Paramita."
"When Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva practiced the deep Prajna Paramita, he saw that the five aggregates were empty and all sufferings were overcome. Shariputra, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form, form is emptiness, emptiness is form, feeling, thinking, action and consciousness are also like this. Shariputra is the empty appearance of all dharmas, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor clean..."
With Master Huiguo's chanting, strange phenomena gradually appeared in the sky. It was clear that there was still some time before the sunrise, but countless crimson clouds appeared on Tiantai Mountain, and thousands of treasure lights appeared in the clouds.
Amitabha! What's going on! Huiguo is very clear about his level of practice.
Although in the eyes of others, he is already a veritable master of eminent monks and masters who are enough to establish a sect. However, his place of practice is the Little Leiyin Temple in Lingshan, the main mountain of Buddhism. Where his practice cannot even be ranked first one hundred, the level of the difference between reciting Zen scriptures that can cause strange phenomena in heaven and earth by chanting Zen scriptures.
This...what is the matter? Could it be that the young man in front of him is so outstanding that he caused changes in the world just by just an introductory ceremony? This is a grand event that Buddhism has not had for millions of years.
Shining in countless lights, Mei Xue is even more sure that Master Huiguo in front of her is a virtuous monk. Just reciting the Heart Sutra can trigger changes in the essence of heaven and earth. This is already the legendary method of the great practitioner.
I'm afraid this is already the top level of the world's power. At least Mei Xue has never heard of such amazing Buddhist powers.
No, it is impossible! The monk Huiguo, who was in Mei Xue's mind, was already in panic. The meditation of meditation that had been practicing for a long time was completely collapsed because such strange phenomena in heaven and earth were definitely not caused by the Buddhist scriptures he recited.
In other places on Tiantai Mountain, early people looked at the sky in shock and looked at the thousands of wonderful images.
"Bang!" The sound of a wooden barrel knocking over triggered a series of noises, shoulder poles, fishing nets, hoes, countless debris fell on the ground, and then almost all the mortals knelt down.
"Immortals are here, bless us to go to sea and bless my wife to produce smoothly!" This is the merchants who go to sea. There are not enough lives for many people who have been traveling on the sea for many years, so how can they not worship?
"The Buddha is here, bless my family and my children to take the exam smoothly." These are the women who guard the family and educate their children, most of them are civilians, and they are also the ones who support Buddhism the most.
"Buddha, the gods are revealed! Please bless me with everything going well and getting rich and getting married." This is the person who worships no matter what immortals and Buddhas are, and they only seek wealth and honor.
The ones who did not kneel down were naturally those practitioners of the immortal path. Of course, they knew that this was not the manifestation of the Buddha and the gods, but the manifestation of supernatural powers by a certain great practitioner.
However, the supernatural power that can cover the entire Tiantai Mountain thousands of miles away and reach the power directly above the sky is what a supreme supernatural power! Just imagine the spiritual power required to do this, and everyone gasps.
Such great practitioners, whether they are from the immortal path or the Buddhist path, may be able to erase the entire Tiantai Mountain from the sea at will, and they are people who must not offend them.
At this time, the "gods" and "Buddha" in everyone's minds, Master Huiguo, who came from the Little Leiyin Temple in Lingshan, the West, was already scared. His mind was even blank, and he continued to recite the Heart Sutra of Prajna Paramita according to his habits.
"... Therefore, we know that Prajna Paramita is a great mantra, a great bright mantra, a supreme mantra, a mantra without any other, which can eliminate all sufferings and is true and not false. Therefore, we say Prajna Paramita mantra, and the mantra says: "Lie Di, Jie Di! Lie Di, Lie Di, Pila Monk Jie Di! Bodhi Savah!"
Prajna Paramita is a great mantra, a great bright mantra, a supreme mantra, a mantra without any other, which can eliminate all suffering and is true and true... Mei Xue repeated the supreme mantra of Buddhism, and felt more and more that some mysterious power was spreading throughout his body.
That’s right, this must be what Master Huiguo said about the cause and effect of killing the worldly relationship.
"Jie Di, Jie Di! Polo Jie Di, Polo monk Jie Di! Bodhi Sabaha!" Mei Xue whispered the last truth.
Then, the wind and clouds changed color, and the diary located in his arms began to become as hot as a soldering iron, and it directly burned up flames.
The fire is not ordinary fire, not the three real fire, not the spiritual fire of heaven and earth, but the fire of wisdom.
In the sky, countless golden lightsabers became increasingly dense, shooting through the night in the sky. Finally, a big sun emerged from the sky, and all over the body tried hard to scatter golden light. Countless sunlight cheered and climbed towards the blue sky with clouds scattered. The golden and red sunlight burst into flames throughout the world.
The great sun is a symbol of Buddha, and the highest fruit position in Buddhism is called the great sun Tathagata.
Being shined by the sun, Mei Xue found that all the sorrow and sadness in her heart naturally gathered together, forming a barrier.
That is the obstacle that binds him, that is his past, that is his sin, that is his worldly fate.
Ninety-nine times of love and ninety-nine times of sighs, they finally turned into the devil at this moment, and they were the last sin he had to face before entering Buddhism.
"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva..." Mei Xue's mind has been resolved while reciting the Heart Sutra of Prajna Paramita taught by Master Huiguo.
In silence, the nine hundred and ninety-nine times that represented the past were cut off by Mei Xue's sword.
Mei Xue didn't know where this sword came from and why it appeared in his hands, but he used this sword to cut off everything that was invisible and cut off his nine hundred and ninety-nine love relationships.
At the moment when Mei Xue cut off the nine hundred and ninety-nine times of dust, the bells sounded between heaven and earth, and countless Zen sounds echoed faintly. It was the Buddha sound that Master Huiguo had never heard before, and the Great Sun Tathagata's glass singing.
"Master, I..." Mei Xue looked at Master Huiguo, who taught her Buddhist scriptures with refreshing eyes. He finally cut off his relationship with the world as if he had lost countless burdens, and was even lighter than ever.
"Amitabha." Master Huiguo looked at his disciple happily, about to smile.
Then, in Mei Xue's stunned gaze, Master Huiguo's whole body turned into countless golden lights, scattering cleanly between the world.
In the Little Leiyin Temple Hall in Lingshan, many masters suddenly stood up from their meditation, and looked at the golden body that suddenly appeared in the Little Leiyin Temple Hall in amazement.
That is the golden body Dharma image of Buddhist practitioners who have achieved great merits and have reached the great perfection of this world. It is the highest realm that all Buddhist children have dreamed of. Since the revival of Buddhism, among the hundreds of millions of practitioners in the world, only one of the living Buddha Tiansheng masters, who were called the natural Buddha body tens of thousands of years ago, has reached this realm and left the golden body Dharma image in the hall.
It is said that the master was born with wisdom. He realized the Buddha's light at the age of ten, and escaped from the worldly ties and entered the Buddhist temple. When he passed away, he achieved the golden body and Dharma appearance, it had been a thousand years in the world.
"This... which living Buddha has achieved the fruit position?"
"Amitabha, my Buddha has a spirit, this is a sign of great prosperity for my Buddhism!"
"This, why is this golden body so similar to Zen Master Huiguo in our temple?"
Master Huiguo, who left behind the golden body and Dharma appearance, looked as if he had encountered an extremely impossible change, completely different from the living Buddha who passed away with a smile on his face.
However, the golden body Dharma image is the golden body Dharma image, which is the great merit and great fortune of Buddhism for thousands of years. It is the original work that will only appear only when the Buddhist great path is practiced to the highest point.
Therefore, Master Huiguo, who was later confirmed to be a god monk, was reincarnated by the living Buddha, and his golden body and Dharma image and the heavenly living Buddha were generally worshipped by tens of thousands of people in Xiao Leiyin Temple.
At this time, Mei Xue was looking at the disappearing position of her teacher in distress, and used the small sword that suddenly appeared in her hand to pull it for a long time, and finally had to admit that she was released by her teacher.
