Chapter 929: Dependent Origination and Emptiness
When the fat man heard this, his eyes widened and he opened his mouth to curse.
The correct answer has already been given, why do we need to explain?
I’m giving you face, right?
But before he could curse, Hu Bayi covered his mouth.
"Be careful what you say and do. Fatty, please calm down."
After all, the right to speak is in the hands of others. If the system is offended by nonsense and the entire ancient tomb is directly closed, then the gain outweighs the loss.
The little brother waved his hand to tell everyone not to panic. He knew how to answer.
"Please explain your answer, thank you."
The smart system reminds you again politely.
The little brother said slowly and calmly.
“The essence of the world is emptiness, but ‘emptiness’ does not mean nothing, but a state between existence and nothingness.”
"This state is the origin of the world!"
The meaning of the word world here does not refer to the world we live in, but to everything in the universe, and even all the universes we know!
The essence of the world is its origin.
Buddhism believes that the world originated from emptiness.
Kong is just a code name and can also be replaced by other words.
Emptiness is between existence and nothingness. It is a state of fluidity and change, rather than a constant thing.
In the process of constant change, the various phenomena displayed by space constitute the universe we see.
As big as the rise and fall of nebulae, as small as human beings' birth, old age, sickness and death, they are all just empty appearances.
All things in the universe operate according to certain laws.
From nothing to something, from something to nothing.
It is constantly changing and changing.
The Heart Sutra says: form is emptiness, emptiness is form.
The color here does not refer to the color of sounds, dogs and horses, but the appearance of all things.
Color is the appearance, emptiness is the essence.
Opposite each other, yet unified with each other!
Thus forming a unique Buddhist cosmology!
After the little brother said all this, his expression gradually became calmer.
His eyes were as deep as the stars, unfathomable.
Everyone was confused and at the same time full of admiration.
You are indeed a weirdo, only you can figure it out.
But is this mysterious and mysterious answer correct?
After waiting quietly for a moment.
After consideration, the intelligent system finally gave a judgment.
"The answer is correct, congratulations on passing the test!"
With a ding.
The bronze door cracked a gap and slowly opened.
It wasn't until the door was fully opened, revealing the wide and straight tomb passage, that everyone came back to their senses.
"Awesome, little brother!"
"You've deceived the system with all your nonsense. I'm really impressed by you!"
The fat man wanted to rush forward and hug the little brother again, but the little brother pushed him away gently.
"Let's go."
The little brother walked straight into the door calmly, as if nothing happened just now.
Fatty and Wang Kaixuan followed, discussing.
"Look at me, do you look like an eminent monk?"
"Well, he looks a bit like a monk, but... I am so handsome and charming, it would be a pity to become a monk."
Wuxie stepped forward and nodded.
"Yes, any one of us can be a monk, except my little brother. Otherwise, what will happen to Sister Asheng?"
Ah Sheng from behind couldn't help but blush when he heard this, lowered his head and whispered.
"I'm just the clan leader's maid, don't talk nonsense."
He smiled innocently.
"We are worrying about important events in your life. Why are you talking nonsense? What is there to be embarrassed about in the eldest girl's family?"
The fat man also smiled maliciously.
"If you're embarrassed, I can say it for you. Just don't forget to treat us to a wedding banquet when the time comes."
Ah Sheng's face turned even redder. Faced with the entanglement of the three scoundrels, he didn't know how to refute for a moment.
Seeing this, Shirley Yang immediately stepped forward and gave each of them a violent shudder.
"You become more capable when you work together to bully others, right?"
He turned around and whispered to Ah Sheng again.
"I will help you with your and my brother's affairs, just ignore them."
Ah Sheng: "..."
Hu Bayi looked aside and just shook his head helplessly.
He is a straight man and has no heart for gossip.
"Hey, little brother, the theory you just mentioned is quite interesting."
Jack caught up with the younger brother and said with great interest.
"You said that everything in the universe operates according to a certain law. What is this law?"
The younger brother slowed down and answered softly with one word.
"edge."
All dharmas arise due to causes and conditions, and all dharmas cease due to causes and conditions.
That’s why it’s called dependent origination.
Everything in the world is created by the combination of causes and conditions, which is called emptiness.
Dependent origination is empty.
These four words in the Diamond Sutra run through all kinds of Buddhist wisdom!
Jack blinked and said half-understanding.
"It's a little hard to understand, but... interesting."
Language is a tool that carries culture, and Chinese culture relies on the Chinese language.
After all, Jack is from the United States and is not very proficient in Chinese. It is normal for him to have difficulty understanding the word "Yuan".
Hu Bayi next to him listened and explained again.
"Let's put it this way, we come from all over the world, and it's all because of fate that we can come together, come to this place, and experience these things together."
"When this incident is over, we will each go back to our respective homes and find our respective mothers. This is the end of our fate."
"The whole thing is controlled by Mr. Yuan behind the scenes. He also uses the same method to control the operation of the entire universe."
After listening to this explanation, Jack suddenly realized.
"I understand. That is the law of the operation of the universe!"
"But can Buddhists really understand this law?"
It is not easy to understand the law of the universe.
Can the ancients thousands of years ago really understand this law?
Hu Bayi grinned.
"According to Buddhism, if you master this law, you can become a Buddha."
"Legend has it that the Buddha's eyes can see through the eternity of the universe, but this is just an exaggeration. Don't take it seriously."
The young man walking in front heard this and his heart moved.
Is it really just bragging?
Not necessarily!
Before coming to Guixu, he may have the same idea as Hu Bayi.
But with the awakening of the holy blood, the lost memories were continuously restored, and his ideas changed.
Especially after he learned the unique writing of the Hentian clan, his cognition of the world was overturned.
Dynamic text carries a completely different way of thinking and perspective of observing the world.
This is an all-encompassing text!
Although Hentianshi is a descendant of Houyi, he is just an ordinary mortal. They cannot create things beyond their own cognition.
This magical text was invented by Hentianshi after being inspired by the divine bone!
The young man gradually realized that the divine bone was more mysterious than they imagined.
It was this divine bone that rewrote the fate of Hentianshi.
And even the fate of everyone!
"After more than three thousand years, your true face is finally revealed."
"God!"
