Chapter 1418: The Field of Faith! Mahayana Buddhism and the Law of the Lord God

"When the causes and conditions come together, all dharmas are accomplished. And the land of good karma, the accumulation of past causes, the cause and effect of all beings are the same, and good karma will bring good results!..."

"Today, I can meet the Golden Chief, which can be said to be the good karma cultivated in the previous life! I wish I could sit on the ground with you, drink tea and watch the sea, and drink wine under the moon... Only then will I live up to this encounter of fate!..."

"."

Zuwaro was wearing a sacrificial robe, a cloth mask inside, and a feather crown on his head, with a blank face. He looked at the big businessman Morino Kiyoshi who was smiling and respectfully saluting, especially at the other party's bright silk straight clothes and head crown. Those greetings full of Buddhist principles, after being retelled by the Ainu translator, are always full of a strange taste.

For example, "We met in the previous life, which is why we met again in this life, and this kind of meeting is very good and will bring a better future?"...

Hearing such words, Zuwaro was very surprised. He frowned and thought about it, recalling the many names of heroes in Nahua mythology, and then asked tentatively.

"Lord God bless you! Could it be that you are a reincarnated hero from the tribes of the Nava Plateau? Before reincarnation, were you also a little butterfly and bird from the red kingdom of God?..."

"Ah? A very high mountain plateau? A red palace? Tibetan Tantric Buddhism? Butterflies and birds reincarnated?...Uh!..."

This time, it was the big businessman Morino Kiyoshi who was speechless. According to the Buddhist concept of reincarnation, does this mean that he was reincarnated from the animal realm to a human? However, considering that the Mongolian tribes recorded in the Tang Dynasty book did believe in Tibetan Tantric Buddhism, their customs were barbaric, and their various concepts were different from those of Tiantai Tantric Buddhism...

After a while, Morino Kiyoshi tried to maintain a smile and answered.

"Respected Mongolian Golden Chief! Buddhism came from India to the east. Although it did pass through the Tibetan Plateau before arriving in the Central Plains and opening up the Mahayana Dharma... But my Tiantai Tantric Buddhism was inherited from the Venerable Fuju Vajra Saicho six hundred years ago! And the Yuan invaders... cough, the Vajrayana Tibetan Tantric Buddhism believed by the Mongolian tribes probably came from the same era, the Tibetan Guru Padmasambhava... We have different origins. And my previous life should not be a butterfly or a bird!..."

"Ah! So, you are not the reincarnated spirit of the tribes on the plateau? Then we must have never met in our previous lives! Our meeting has nothing to do with the previous life, it is the arrangement of the current Lord God!... However, if you want to drink, I have a bag of deer blood wine here, which is the most invigorating! Tamicao, give me the leather bag of wine!..."

"Okay! Captain!"

".Uh! This? This wine? Is it blood wine?!..."

Morino Kiyoshi widened his eyes and looked at the wine bag in his hand. The red wine was full of blood! If he drank this, if he was a formal monk, he would have to break two "big precepts". Even if he was just a layman with hair, he would feel uncomfortable for a long time after taking this mouthful of blood wine...

"What? You suspect I poisoned you and you don't dare to drink it?..."

Zuwaro smiled, took the deer blood wine, and drank two big mouthfuls. Then, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and handed it to Senye Qingdao.

"Try it! I added some chili, dried tomatoes and salt. This is the authentic taste of the plateau! All the tribal warriors around me said it was good after drinking it! I can't bear to give it to them, after all, there are not many chili left..."

"Buddha! This group of barbaric Mongolian tribes! They actually use blood to make wine?!..."

Senye Qing cursed inwardly, and reluctantly raised the leather bag and took a sip. As a result, a salty, spicy and fishy taste instantly rushed from his mouth to the top of his head! The other hot taste rushed to his lower abdomen, making him feel like he had swallowed a ball of fire. So, Morino Kiyoshi's face first turned blue, then red, and he almost vomited!

"Ew!..."

"Haha! Your alcohol tolerance is not good!..."

Seeing Morino Kiyoshi's embarrassed look, Zuwaro laughed, and the surrounding kingdom warriors, Unanga warriors, deer hunters, and Jurchen warriors also laughed.

"Hahaha! Even deer blood wine is so good that you can't drink it! How can you survive in winter!"

"That's right! Such a thin leader can actually lead so many warriors and become a chieftain in the people?"

"Great Spirit of Huizilobo! The chief must be strong, and the priest must also be strong! Only in this way, in the snowy forests, in the white mountains and black waters, the tribe can have a future of continuation!..."

"Yes! To survive, you must follow a sacred deer, or a wolf king!..."

At this moment, amid the laughter of the warriors of various tribes, an invisible but substantial line seemed to divide Morino Kiyoshi and Zuwaro, dividing their tribal characteristics, dividing their spiritual world, and even dividing their faith areas!

On one side of this invisible line is the Tiantai Esoteric Buddhism where Morino Kiyoshi came from, the Tiantai Sect from the Middle Earth, and the Mahayana Buddhism from the Han Dynasty!

A more stable farming life and highly developed productivity have precipitated speculation and profound religious philosophy over a long period of time. In the fertile soil of wealth and culture, monks do not need to work and have sufficient conditions for practice. The ideas they brought have profoundly influenced the spiritual world of East Asia. Together with the more mature and rich Confucianism, they have firmly occupied the belief field of the Ming Dynasty, Korea, Japan, North Vietnam... and the entire East Asian upper class!

On the other side of this invisible line is the "Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism" known to Morino Kiyoshi, and the "Lord God Hummingbird" that he has not yet known! This kind of savage and bloody breath, developed from ancient sacrificial rituals, is more simple and easy to understand. It has more fear-driven creeds, gives more physical and mental anesthesia, and is naturally more adapted to the difficult environment of low productivity and the savage tribes struggling in these environments!

Wealth and poverty, stability and migration, wisdom and purity, compassion and fear, thinking and obedience... The difference on both sides of this line of faith is really too big! To a certain extent, the belief in the Lord God of the Kingdom will never be introduced to the wealthy Han Dynasty, and it is almost difficult to be introduced to the upper class of the country in Kyoto!

The object of competition for the Lord God Hummingbird, the belief niche it occupies, actually overlaps with Tibetan Buddhism! The sky where it can fly is always north of the rich farming area, in those cold and barren lands, in those struggling tribes, from blood to snow! …

"Buddha! Ahem! Respected Golden Chieftain... I think we can start trading some more precious 'treasures'..."

Moriye Kiyoshi calmed down and returned the blood wine to Zuwaro. Then, he pursed his lips and gestured to the third merchant ship... Dozens of uneasy craftsmen, with their families, were taken off the ship by seven monks.

"Buddha cut his flesh to serve the eagle, practiced the path of compassionate Bodhisattva, and sacrificed his body to save..."

Moriye Kiyoshi showed compassion on his face, while reciting the scriptures, he bowed his head from the bottom of his heart. Then, he bowed deeply to dozens of cowering craftsmen, as if facing a compassionate Buddha statue.

"Namo Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva! You have traveled to the northern part of Ezo, accumulated good deeds, and taught the Shanta people. Your merits are immeasurable! And the money you exchanged will also be used to do good deeds, donate food to refugees, and build a golden statue for the Buddha... Buddha is merciful! You will definitely receive blessings in the future for doing this great good, and eventually practice and become a Buddha in your lifetime!..."

"Come forward, come forward! Practice the perfection of giving, and give birth to the six perfections... Morino Kiyoshi is here, and I bow to all the believers and salute them!..."
