Chapter 1104 Theory
Faji, Fayuan, Fazhi and other eminent monks were also stunned at this moment.
According to normal logic, Xu Wuzhou's discussion of the law with them is naturally the theory of Taoism and Buddhism.
But now he doesn't follow the routine at all, and actually wants to discuss Buddhism with them.
The many eminent monks present all looked at each other.
You are too careless about kicking the restaurant, are you here to deliver food on purpose?
Why!
Everyone can't understand Xu Wuzhou's operation, you can still struggle a bit in the Buddhist and Taoist debate.
As for the debate on Buddhism, there may not even be a struggle.
The warriors of the Taoist sect also looked at Xu Wuzhou in a daze.
The master of the Taoist sect came to the lair of the Buddhist sect to discuss Buddhism with others. What kind of routine is this playing?
"Any questions?
When I came to the Holy Land of Buddhism, as a guest, I would not be a sensationalist, and it would be appropriate to talk about Buddhism.
What do you abbots and eminent monks think? "
At this time, what else could the Buddhist sect say, Faji said, "Okay!"
Following Faji's words, many novice monks filed out, and set up a Dharma altar in front of Daleiyin Temple, where many eminent monks sat down.
After the novice served the tea and lit the incense sticks, Faji bowed and said, "Since the Taoist master wants to talk about Buddhism, the Taoist master will invite you first."
Xu Wuzhou waved his hand and said: "Guests are welcome, please."
Faji thought for a while and asked, "What is a Buddha?"
When Faji had a problem, many people gasped.
Faji really wanted to kill Xu Wuzhou with one blow, and he asked such a big question when he opened his mouth.
What is Buddha?
There are too many answers to this question. The Buddha is an enlightened being. The Buddha is the one who transforms the world.
It is also said that the mind is the Buddha.
All living beings are Buddhas.
Buddha has countless understandings, how does Xu Wuzhou answer such a big question?
He explained all the understandings of the Buddha, even in the last three days and three nights, he could not fully cover the Buddha.
When the Taoist warriors heard this question, they all looked sad.
As soon as this question came up, Xu Wuzhou couldn't hold on for a round.
At this time, Xu Wuzhou laughed and said: "The Buddha is Amitabha!"
As soon as Xu Wuzhou's words came out, everyone was amazed.
Faji asked what is Buddha?
Xu Wuzhou told them that Amitabha is the Buddha.
He did not specifically explain what Buddha is, but told them who Buddha is.
Amitabha is naturally a Buddha, he is the incarnation of Buddha, no need to explain, all the beauty of Buddha can be found in Amitabha.
Who would dare to deny this answer?
Faji bowed and saluted, Xu Wuzhou's answer was simple, but back to the basics, and the problem he was still troubled by was solved.
Amitabha is a Buddha!
"What the Taoist said is very true!"
Faji clasped his hands together and saluted Xu Wuzhou respectfully.
Many eminent monks originally thought that Xu Wuzhou was an all-in-one enemy, but they never expected to take down Faji all at once.
This answer has to be praised.
But some people also think that this is sophistry.
Therefore, someone stood up and asked: "The Taoist master is the master of the Taoism, but he talks about Buddhism with us. Does the Taoist disrespect the Taoism, or does he say that the law of the Taoism is not as good as the Buddha's law?"
Xu Wuzhou smiled, pointed to a sail on a flagpole and asked, "Do you think it's the wind or the sail?"
This question caused the eminent monk who stood up to frown slightly, thought for a while and said, "Fan is safe and sound, it doesn't move by itself, it's the wind that moves it, it's the wind itself!"
Everyone nodded after listening, this is to see the essence through the phenomenon.
Just looking at it, it seems that the sail is moving.
But in fact, the sail is a dead thing, it does not move, it is the wind that blows it, so it is the wind.
Xu Wuzhou shook his head and smiled, "It's not the sails, it's not the wind.
The heart of the benevolent. "
In a word, the eminent monks present were shocked suddenly, and they seemed to realize something in their hearts.
The eminent monk who asked Xu Wuzhou was also taken aback for a moment, then bowed and retreated.
But many people were puzzled. What the eminent monk asked was that Xu Wuzhou, as the master of Taoism, discussed Buddhism with them, which was disrespectful to Taoism.
How did it turn into sails and winds?
"What's the matter?
Why can't I understand at all! Does anyone explain it! "
"It's me, what kind of Zen machine is this, I don't understand it at all!"
"It's understandable to be moved by the wind and sail, but what does it have to do with that question?"
"You are still a devout believer, you don't even have any understanding, so it's not ashamed.
This is an analogy for the Taoist master. He regards Taoism and Buddhism as wind and sail respectively.
The eminent monk asked him if his discussion of Buddhism was not Taoism, and he did not respect Buddhism.
The answer of the Taoist master is that the wind and the sail are not moving but the heart is moving, which means that there is no distinction between Buddhism and Taoism, but you, an eminent monk, have a distinction in your heart, so you will think of this question. "
"Oh! So that's the case!"
"No wonder that eminent monk stepped back in shame!"
"I didn't expect Taoist Master to really understand Buddhism and Zen!"
"This is two games in a row?"
"This answer is really full of Zen, and you must have an understanding of Buddhism to answer it."
"Could it be possible that the Taoist really understands the Dharma and can really discuss the Dharma with them?"
"..."
Everyone suddenly looked forward to it, perhaps Xu Wuzhou could give a little surprise in this discussion, so that he would not be beaten to death with a stick.
