Chapter 2130: Tonification 2
"The Beiye Linglong Sutra?" The old monk was startled when he heard this, and the razor in his hand trembled even more. As soon as he spoke a series of words that Xiao Hua seemed to understand, it was the same as the tone of his prayer just now.
Xiao Hua smiled bitterly: "Elder, I come from the Hidden Immortal Continent and don't understand the language of the Pure Land world. If you have anything to say, elder, please speak slowly!"
"Namo Maitreya Buddha..." the old monk took a long breath and asked respectfully, "The poor monk was really overjoyed! He lost his cool for a moment and made the Buddha laugh. I am from the Little Linglong Temple lineage, although in While waiting for the arrival of the future Lord Buddha, we also prepared a series of Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist secrets for the Lord Buddha, and even relics for worship, but unfortunately... the "Baye Linglong Sutra" practiced by the future Lord Buddha was not among them! The name of this Buddhist practice is not even recorded in the Buddhist scriptures of the Pure Land World. It is only passed down orally from our Little Linglong Temple. The Lord Buddha has nine lifetimes of destiny to practice this practice. Naturally, it is indeed what my Little Linglong Temple is waiting for. The future Buddha."
The old monk paused for a moment, took another long breath, as if to calm down his mood, and then said: "Lord Buddha can have such an opportunity to cultivate the Buddha's relics before he is ordained, but how can the relics be tonsured?" What? Buddha...Buddha's relic?"
Until then, the old monk was shocked as if he had just woken up from a dream. His withered lips were trembling so much that he could no longer hold the razor in his hand. When he let go, the razor fell to the ground.
Xiao Hua raised his hand, and the razor floated up, and flew to the old monk's hand again.
Then another string of words that Xiao Hua couldn't understand came out of the old monk's mouth, and during the conversation. The old monk knelt down on the futon again and kowtowed several times. Seeing the old monk's ecstatic expression, Xiao Hua felt both pride and joy in his heart. He was willing to bring hope to this old man, no matter how big or small.
Seeing that the incense burning on the incense case box was about to go out, Xiao Hua hurriedly reminded: "Elder, the nine sticks of incense in front of the Buddha are about to go out..."
"It doesn't matter!" the old monk said easily, "I was worried before the soup pool. Even just now, I was ready to ordain the Buddha before the incense candle went out. But now I have to ordain the Buddha's relics. Such a worldly person The incense is no longer worthy, just let it burn out slowly! This is all my Buddha’s arrangement!”
As if he was afraid that Xiao Hua would not understand, the old monk explained: "The razor of the world and the incense candle of the world are all for shaving the skin of the world, and for the real relics of the Buddha. They are the eminent monks who save the Buddha, and even I, the Buddha, have them." To qualify, the incense candle must be the glazed scented oil of my Fo Leiyin Temple, and the razor must be the dust-cutting thread of my Fo Leiyin Temple. Alas, these are all recorded in the Buddhist scriptures. How many people can cultivate the Buddha's relics? How can one not be ordained after cultivating the Buddha's relics? I don't know how much more superior it is to being ordained for the Buddha's relics. The Lord Buddha has already given up his physical body before he entered my Buddhist sect. It's really gratifying!"
"This..." Xiao Hua was really dumbfounded after hearing this. He was just a lazy way to avoid it.
It suddenly coincided with some of the secrets of Buddhism. He touched his nose and really wanted to talk to the old monk. Whether it is the tonsure of the Buddha's relics or the physical body, they are just tonsures. Buddhism regards all living beings as equal, so the Buddha's relics and the physical body itself must also be equal.
It's a pity that Xiao Hua can't say this to the old monk who is at a loss for words. He can only wait until the old monk's mood calms down a little before talking, or he may never have the chance to say goodbye to the old monk in this life.
This time it took longer than last time before the old monk's words came into order: "Lord Buddha, if this is the case, the Lord Buddha's tonsure should actually be performed in Leiyin Temple by the current Tathagata Buddha himself. The disciples' cultivation is shallow, If I were to ordain the Lord Buddha, I am afraid it would displease the Lord Buddha and affect the Lord Buddha’s practice!”
"It's okay~" Xiao Hua said with a smile, "I know Leiyin Temple, but Leiyin Temple doesn't know me. I want to find Lord Tathagata, but Lord Tathagata doesn't want to find me! If I can't be ordained because of this, it will affect me For your cultivation, Elder, does the Buddha want to inflict more sins on you?"
"Haha, what Lord Buddha said makes sense!" The old monk smiled slightly, "My Tantric Sect...and the future Lord Buddha and Leiyin Temple are all from the same lineage of Buddhism, but after all...forget it, I won't talk about it, disciple. Now that I have the courage to ordain the Lord Buddha, I will naturally obtain good results, which will be extremely beneficial to my disciple’s practice in the next life. I thank the Lord Buddha for this gift!”
After saying that, the old monk respectfully saluted Xiao Hua again. Xiao Hua smiled, raised his hand and helped the old monk up, and said: "Elder has been practicing hard here for hundreds of years. Now is the time for me to repay you. This is all The elder should have received it! If possible, I would like to bring this honor to all of the Xiaolinglong Temple family!”
"Disciple, please thank the Lord Buddha for your gift on behalf of my Xiaolinglong Temple family!" The old monk was overjoyed and said with trembling joy, "Originally, the disciple wanted to make it clear to the Lord Buddha after he was ordained. Now that the Lord Buddha has refined the relics of the Buddha, the Buddha The Lord only needs to use all the relics in the Buddha on the side of the main hall of my Little Linglong Temple, and that will be the glory of my Little Linglong Temple lineage!"
"What??" Xiao Hua was shocked and almost said in disbelief, "Is... refining your relics a gift to you? Is it the glory you are waiting for?"
"That's right! That's right. The Lord Buddha only needs to integrate these relics into the Lord Buddha's relics, which is the greatest gift to us!" The old monk was very sure, "After the disciple ordains the Lord Buddha, the disciple will When he went west, he also asked the Lord Buddha to cremate the disciple's remains, and asked the Lord Buddha to use the relics inside. The disciple could wait for the Lord Buddha in this life, and be ordained by the Lord Buddha, and then let the relics be integrated with the Lord Buddha's relics. The Lord’s Buddha light can refine the disciple’s karma, and the disciple will be able to achieve Buddhahood with a mind free of karma and obstacles after reincarnation.”
"So that's it!" Xiao Hua understood somewhat, but still hesitated, "I have never read Buddhist scriptures carefully, and I have seen the cultivation method of the Vajra Dharmakaya before. It is just a selfish act of swallowing other people's relics to strengthen oneself. Is it hard to believe that Isn’t this Buddha’s relic different from this cruel cultivation method?”
"Of course there is an essential difference!" the old monk explained with a smile, "Lord Buddha will know the details by just reading the Buddhist scriptures on the side of the main hall. The Dharmakaya of Vajra is the position of my Buddhist protector for cultivating, and only with the help of relics The disciples do not know how much the Lord Buddha knows about the Buddhahood of our sect, the Buddha, the Lord, the King of Heaven, the Vajra, the Arhat, the Bodhisattva, and the Buddha. In addition to Bodhisattvas and Buddhas who can eliminate relic karmic obstacles and use the supreme power of Buddha's light to help people in other worlds practice, most of the other five Buddha fruits can only be borrowed from the Vajra Buddha Fruit!"
"Not necessarily~" Xiao Hua's doubts immediately arose again, and he secretly cursed, "The relics can help the cultivation of the golden body. It is known to the Buddhist masters. How many eminent monks can cultivate Tao, Bodhisattva and Buddha? This relic How many people know the effect of eliminating the karma of relics and helping people practice in another life... It may not be what they are saying!"
However, seeing how pious the old monk was, Xiao Hua did not dare to say these words to particularly stimulate him. Of course, Xiao Hua is just a suspicion. He has never studied Buddhism intensively, nor does he have the secret technique to eliminate relic karma. The Buddhist sect is a cultivation method comparable to the Taoist sect. Who can say that they don't have such magical powers to help people practice in the next life? Woolen cloth?
As he spoke, the old monk swayed twice and seemed to be unsteady on his feet.
"Elder..." Xiao Hua hurriedly tried to support the old monk and shouted.
"The time for me to stay in the mortal world is short! Please, Lord Buddha, have mercy on me and allow me to have the honor of being ordained by Lord Buddha's relics to join our Tantra..." The old monk waved his hands hurriedly, feeling out of breath.
"Okay~" When Xiao Hua saw this, he knew that this was the old monk's last wish, and he did not dare to neglect. He slapped his forehead with his hand, and the Buddha's relics walked out of the Niwan Palace, waiting for the four-foot golden body holding a water purification bottle. , stepped into the air wearing a picture of Ten Thousand Buddhas, "Amitabha, good~" chanting the Buddha's name, with a face full of solemnity and kindness.
"Rumble..." The sky and the earth shook, and the colors of the wind and clouds changed. Wherever the wind shook the clouds, strong winds rose. Wherever the strong wind passed, the flying snow in the sky was blown upward into the sky. The heavy clouds in the high altitude were blown away by the strong wind. Layers of it were chipped away. The wind became stronger and stronger, as if small holes were appearing in the air thousands of miles around. It seemed that the infinite power of faith poured out from these small holes, like a waterfall falling into the air, and thousands of currents surging towards the great sky. The inconspicuous little Linglong Temple in Snow Mountain has fallen.
"This... this is..." The old monk was shocked again, because as the power of many beliefs fell in the previous storm, the whole snow-capped mountains were covered by smallpox, and the goddesses in seamless heavenly clothes were revealed. Crossing one's knees on the Xiaolinglong Temple, playing the pipa, or singing softly, the sounds of nature filled the entire hall. The powerful heavenly dragons also roared and swam wantonly around the small Linglong Temple.
The effect of Namo Guanyin Bodhisattva in Changsheng Town was too shocking. With some encouragement from Buddhist disciples, the worship of Guanyin spread irresistibly throughout the Hidden Immortal Continent. The power of these pure beliefs should have been slowly instilled. The Buddha relics that entered Xiao Hua, but because of the innate divine prohibition, the power of faith was not collected by Xiao Hua in time, and it has been condensed to a very terrifying level. Now that the Buddha relics suddenly appear in the Pure Land world, the power of faith is gathered. Therefore, the momentum is naturally extraordinary, and the strange phenomena caused are even worse! This was the situation that occurred when Xiao Hua sacrificed the Buddha's relics in Heiyun Ridge.
But fortunately, this is the Pure Land world, the continent of Buddhism. Where the light of Buddha shines everywhere, there are many people who have achieved Buddhahood. The power of faith is certainly eye-catching. What the monks did was to kneel down and worship. , or ringing bells to celebrate, but no one came to visit and disturb...
