Chapter 1622 The Five Patriarchs of Zen
?The mind is the supreme right way to surrender the mind horse. Once the mind horse overturns the mind, people will go crazy.
Generally speaking, it is just a devil.
A person cannot control his imagination and distracting thoughts, which is indeed no different from a madman.
"The distracted horse is the bad root of the soul. You deliberately indulge the horse in your mind. Although you can develop the potential in your body, one day the horse will be free from the reins and no longer be restrained. Once you are killed, you will only end up with the soul scattered. You must consider whether it is worth it!" Yuchi Jingde looked at Hou Junji, who was crazy, and kept comforting him.
"Hahaha! Hahaha! The soul is scattered? If I could kill that old thief Zhang Bairen, even if the soul is scattered, I would be willing!" Hou Junji laughed wildly at the sky.
The mind is the supreme result of the horse of the mind. Even if it is killed, it can be reincarnated and has the opportunity to start over.
If the mind is out of control and unrestrained, once the body is cut off, the soul will be the ending of the soul scattered.
Looking at Hou Junji's crazy look, Jing Wuming sighed, then slowly stood up: "Forget it, everything is your own choice, and it is fate. It's not right or wrong. It has nothing to do with grudges, love, and hatred, it's just that the camps are different."
Yuchi Jingde can see clearly that you, Hou Junji, can design to kill Zhang Bairen's son to death. Is it wrong for Zhang Bairen to kill your whole family?
Nothing wrong!
The world is so big that there is no place to live. After the bearded guest and Hongfu Nu gave Hu Zi, they turned around and walked towards the distant forest.
"You and I will hide from the world for the time being to avoid the limelight. Now the limelight in the world is too high. You and I will go find a paradise to avoid the limelight. When the wind passes, you and I will come out." The bearded guest looked at Hongfu Nu with his eyes.
"Well, that's fine!" Hong Fu Nu nodded when she heard this, and the two turned around and walked towards the mountain.
Chang'an City
Water and Land Dharma Assembly
Now Chang'an City is very lively. All the high-ranking masters from Buddhism and Taoist sects gather in Chang'an City, wanting to divide the level of Chang'an City.
The Water and Land Dharma Assembly is nothing more than preaching and debate on Buddhism and Taoism.
Buddhist monks gathered in Chang'an City, and all the real people of Taoism have already taken their place.
Baihua Tower
Zhang Bairen stood tall and stood at the window of Baihua Building. He looked at the wooden platform built in the distance, with a curiosity in his eyes, and his fingers slowly tapped the table.
"What are the governor thinking?" Yuan Tiangang came to Zhang Bairen.
"Who will win the Water and Land Dharma Assembly?" Zhang Bairen said.
"If you compete for magical powers, Buddhism will naturally be even better. Gao Zhen, the Taoist sect, is still practicing hard in the depths of reincarnation. Only the Dharma body is in the world, which is the opponent of the Buddha in its heyday. But if we discuss the Tao, there is no difference between the Dharma body and the deity. Any ancestor of our Taoist sect can debate with the Buddha for three days and three nights!" Yuan Tiangang smiled proudly.
"It's not that simple, I'm afraid that things will go beyond your expectations. Dao Sect is in danger this time!" Zhang Bairen's eyes showed a look of surprise.
"Oh? Please give me some advice!" Yuan Tiangang immediately saluted respectfully when he heard this.
Zhang Bairen sneered: "What's the matter between Taoist sect and I do? Don't think about pleading for Taoist sect, I will never talk nonsense."
Yuan Tiangang smiled bitterly when he heard this, unable to speak, so he could only lower his head and a trace of thought appeared in his eyes.
Full moon and Mid-Autumn Festival
At this time, the fragrance of osmanthus flowers in the sky, so Li Shimin naturally would not participate in the so-called waterway ritual meeting. All he wanted was a result.
Zhang Bairen would not attend the so-called water and land Dharma Assembly. He neither belonged to the Taoist sect nor Buddhism. Whoever wins and loses has no effect on him.
However, for Taoism and Buddhism, it is about a dispute over energy and a matter of future fortune, and it is impossible to be careless at all.
"Let's go, Daomen will definitely lose this time!" Zhang Bairen turned around and left, and came to a house outside Chang'an City to enjoy the cool air.
"Amitabha!" The Buddha stepped on the white lotus and followed a child next to him. He came to the venue with a swaying figure and bowed to Zhang Bairen: "I have met the governor."
The Buddha was surrounded by a little novice monk, standing quietly beside the Buddha.
"Don't you go to the Taoist discussion meeting?" Zhang Bairen said with a smile.
"Of the mere Taoist discussion meeting, my Buddhist disciples will do it for me. The monk was worried about the Mahayana Buddhist leader in India." The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes: "Your chess is indeed wonderful."
"Oh?" Zhang Bairen refused to comment after hearing this.
"It's a pity that the governor was wrong, and he didn't have a move. Now the ancestral vein of Middle Earth is recondensing. My Buddhism has long abandoned the foundation of India and wants to take root in China. If it is not broken or established, it has helped my Buddhism a great benefit and completely cut off its foundation in India, which also makes me lose the bonds of Buddhism." The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes.
"Oh? Is that true?" Zhang Bairen ignored her and looked at the little novice monk with his eyes: "Is this Hou Junji's grandson?"
"The governor is so cruel and actually gave him the water of Forgetfulness. However, after drinking the water of Forgetfulness, he has the highest talent in practicing Taoism. He can inherit the Buddhist throne in the future." The Buddha smiled calmly.
"Oh?" Zhang Bairen refused to comment. Just a descendant of Hou Junji, in his eyes, he could be crushed to death with just an ant.
"You must be careful. If the Buddha Sect causes trouble because of this son in the future, don't blame me for not reminding you." Zhang Bairen coughed hard, and the wind in the mountains was constantly chaotic as his breathing.
Looking at Zhang Bairen with a pale face, the Buddha shook his head: "It's a pity that your foundation has been severely damaged. You can't recover within a hundred years. This time, Jingrui is probably the only way to miss it."
"Oh?" Zhang Bairen wiped the corner of his mouth, and didn't say much.
At this time, the Buddha's light flowed in the sky, and five figures fell at their feet. But they saw the five people wearing cassocks and majestic Buddhist Dharma all over their bodies, as if they could transform the world and everything.
"I have met the World-Honored Buddha and the Great Governor!" The five people bowed together.
"Governor, what about me, the five Buddhist sons?" The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes.
"If the Fifth Ancestor of Buddhism can only say one thing, I will be blind! I really didn't expect that the Fifth Ancestor of Zen also rushed out of the cycle of reincarnation, awakening Su Hui in this world and achieving the great way." Zhang Bairen's eyes rarely showed a rare solemnity.
The fifth ancestor of Zen Buddhism stood in front of him, and he could not see the depth of the fifth ancestor of Zen Buddhism. It can be seen that the level of cultivation of these five people is above him. As for combat power, it is definitely not as good as that of himself.
"Huike has seen the governor!"
"Sengcan has met the governor!"
"Daoxin has met the governor!"
"Hongren has met the governor!"
"Huineng has met the governor!"
"What a Fifth Ancestor of Buddhism. You are all my predecessors, so there is no need to be polite!" Zhang Bairen glanced over the Fifth Ancestor in front of him, and a hint of emotion appeared in his eyes.
There is a reason why Buddhism can take root in the Middle Earth.
From the Buddha to the Dharma, and then to the Fifth Patriarch of Buddhism, generations of geniuses have been constantly working hard and constantly taking root and developing in the Middle Earth. The prosperity of Buddhism is reborn again with the spring breeze, which depends on the unremitting efforts of generations.
"The Governor thought what is the chance of discussing Taoism between Buddhism and Taoism?" The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes.
"With the Fifth Ancestor in Buddhism, he will naturally win! I am just curious. The Buddha's work is too great. For a mere water and land Dharma Assembly, he was willing to wake up the Fifth Ancestor from the Samsara. The price was too great." Zhang Bairen was surprised.
"The Taoist sect is naturally not worthy of my Buddhist formation. However, the governor's Mahayana Buddhism is not simple. This conference on Taoism, I, Zen, must have done my best to win the first place in the conference. I will never give Mahayana Buddhism any chance. If the governor has no confidence, it is better to stop early!" The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes.
"Why did you come here? It turns out that you are showing off your power! You want to defeat others without fighting." Zhang Bairen slowly turned around and looked at the sea of clouds in the distance: "Although the fifth ancestor of Zen Buddhism is here, my governor is more confident in Guan Zizai. Since you have confidence, why don't we bet on a bet?"
"Gambling? How to bet?" The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen, who was calm and unsure in his heart.
"How to bet? Why not bet on how to win or lose the Mahayana Buddhism and Zen discussion this time?" Zhang Bairen looked at the Buddha with a smile.
"Oh? How about losing? How about winning?" The Buddha looked at Zhang Bairen with his eyes.
"If the Mahayana Buddhism wins, then the orthodox Buddhist name belongs to the Mahayana Buddhism. If you change Zen Buddhism to Hinayana Buddhism in the future, what if you all belong to the Buddhist sect?" Zhang Bairen looked at the Buddha with a smile.
In the future, Mahayana Buddhism and Zen Buddhism were merged into the same sect. Zhang Bairen's thoughts could be seen through at a glance. Zhang Bairen's wolf-like ambitions were to seize the thousands of years of Zen Buddhism.
Zen Buddhism is a Buddhist, and Buddhism is a Zen Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism is a member of Buddhism, but it does not mean that it cannot be obtained from Buddhism. It is just a branch of Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism is Mahayana Buddhism, and the two cannot be confused.
"What if the Mahayana Buddhism loses?" The Buddha stared at Zhang Bairen with his eyes tightly, as if he was examining whether Zhang Bairen was harsh and had any guilty attitude.
"If the Mahayana Buddhism loses, it will be merged into the small-scale Buddhist temple and respect you as the ancestor of the religion. How about it?" Zhang Bairen looked at the Buddha with his eyes.
"You just have faith so much?" The Buddha's eyes stared at Zhang Bairen. For the Buddha, the temptation of Mahayana Buddhism is too great. If he could swallow the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism, the world would be his own in the future and there would be nothing else to do in Taoism.
"Haha, I wonder if the World Honored One dares to fight me?" Zhang Bairen looked at the World Honored One.
"I can be the master of Zen Buddhism, but you may not be the master of Mahayana Buddhism. At that time, Guan Zizai will not admit his account. Wouldn't I bet both human and wealth?" The Buddha shook his head and did not dare to take risks easily: "If Mahayana Buddhism is defeated, and you allow the Buddhist to preach in Zhuo County, I will agree to your bet."
