prehistoric, holy world
Western Spirit Mountain
In Daleiyin Temple
The Tathagata Buddha is sitting high on the cloud platform, and below are the great Bodhisattvas, Arhats, and Buddhas, who are respectfully paying respect to the luggage below!
The Buddhas clasped their hands together and said, "Amitabha, you have seen my Buddha Tathagata!"
The Bodhisattvas clasped their hands together and said, "Amitabha, you have seen my Buddha Tathagata!"
All the Arhats clasped their hands and said, "Amitabha, you have seen my Buddha Tathagata!"
…
Tathagata Buddha said: "I have seen all the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas... The poor monk is calling you this time because of something. The calamity is about to come, and this calamity is related to the great prosperity of Western Buddhism!"
Sakyamuni Tathagata did not care what they thought, and continued: "Amitabha, I look at the four major continents, and the good and evil of all living beings are different from each other; those who conquer the divine continent in the east, respect heaven and earth, and feel refreshed and calm; those in the northern Julu Although those in Xiniuzhou are called killing, they only make ends meet because they are clumsy in nature and affectionate, and do not practice much. I, the people in Xiniuhezhou, are not greedy and do not kill, nourish their energy and potential, follow the supreme truth, and everyone will live a long life; but in Nanfangbuzhou Those who are greedy for sex, enjoy misfortune, kill a lot and fight a lot. It is the so-called murderous place of words and a sea of right and wrong. I now have the Tripitaka Sutra to persuade people to do good.
In the West, we have Tripitaka, which is the Dharma, the Treatise, and the Sutra Tripitaka. The first storehouse of the Dharma is about talking about heaven; the first storehouse of the Sutra is about talking about the earth; and the first storehouse of the Sutra is to save ghosts.

And this Buddhist teaching needs to be spread to the east, so that it can solve this evil!"
On the cloud platform, a woman wearing a white skirt was seen fluttering in the wind, like small waves surging from time to time!
Looking from a distance, one can also feel that the thin material of the skirt seems to be nothing, but it is extremely delicate and silky, not stained by any filth in the world, just like the most holy woman in the world.
Wearing a crown, a veil, a solemn face, an orchid finger in one hand, and a jade bottle in her hand, a cloud of glow lingers behind her, which further highlights her holy incarnation.
It was Cihang who once preached and taught one of the Twelve Golden Immortals. Later he went to Western Buddhism, studied Buddhism, and was named Guanyin Bodhisattva.
At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "Amitabha, you have seen me, and I am compassionate! I want Buddhism to rise! I don't know how we should start! What do we need to prepare?"
When other Buddhas heard Guanyin's words, they no longer had to ask. This was the question in their minds, and they all looked to the Tathagata!
The Tathagata Buddha replied calmly: "Amitabha, fellow Buddhists, there is no need to worry, no need to prepare anything in detail, just let everything take its course! There is still some time before the great rise of Buddhism!
In order to complete this calamity, a Buddhist disciple with profound Buddhist teachings needs to be reincarnated ten times. After completing the tenth time, with the help of destined people in the East, one step at a time can be achieved in a mortal body.
From the Eastern Land to the Great Leiyin Temple in the West, obtain the Tripitaka Sutra, and then pass it on to the Eastern Land!
The journey required is from Dongsheng Shenzhou to Xiniu Hezhou.
After their merits are completed, they will achieve the right fruition and be awarded the Mahayana fruition!"
Fearing to stay, Sun Fo said: "Buddha, I don't know how many years are left until the specific time of the great prosperity?"
Sakyamuni Tathagata said: "This time Dongsheng Shenzhou will have the birth of our Western Dharma Protector War God. After his birth, it will be the beginning of the rise of Western Buddhism! However, the spread of Buddhism to the East still needs to involve many forces, especially the human race.
You still have to take a trip to the forces involved!”
When the Buddhas heard about the birth of the Buddhist protector war god, they were curious but did not ask any more questions.
Just look at the human race and you will know that there are war gods in the human race, and there are ten of them!
The top ten war gods of the human race are all famous for their great supernatural powers and powerful cultivation.
"In addition, after the Protector God of War starts his journey to the west to measure tribulations, Venerable Guanyin, then the specific matters of the journey to the west will be troublesome to the Venerable!"
Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "Amitabha, Guanyin takes command!"
Tathagata Buddha: "Let's leave then. I will personally visit the major forces later! Explain the matter of traveling to the west to obtain Buddhist scriptures."
Red Jing Bodhisattva said: "Amitabha, Buddha, do you need to allocate us the power to take a trip?"
Tathagata Buddha said: "To show my sincerity, I will go there myself."
Suddenly, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Buddhist sound resounded throughout the Great Thunder Sound Temple: "Amitabha, I am compassionate, please leave it to me, Queen Pingxin!"
Tathagata Buddha: "Amitabha, then thank you King Buddha!"
Then the Buddhas dispersed and the Tathagata's figure disappeared on the cloud platform.
I thought I was going to the core of the major forces in the East to visit the leaders of the major forces.
Shouyang Mountain, the ancestral land of the human race
At this time, many senior human race officials were in the human race meeting hall!
Ying Zheng: "Everyone knows that the heavens have changed, and another calamity is about to come!
Moreover, this calamity is related to the great rise of Western Buddhism! The Tathagata has already set out to visit the ancestral land of the human race, hoping to get the support of our race!"
Yang Jian: "I suggest you just let everything take its own course. Even if Western Buddhism spreads Buddhism to the Dongtu people, it will only influence the human race with one more thought. Our people have always been open to all rivers, and this will only further increase our luck!"
After everyone heard this, they thought about it and Ximen Shan said: "Good! I agree."
