"There is no hindrance in the heart, no fear, and far away from upside-down dreams." - "Heart Sutra"

Qianye burned the remaining incense ash with the incense in front of the Buddha, turned it into bait, and fed it to the koi in the lotus pond, his clothes fluttering.The koi were blowing bubbles, wagging their tails happily, swallowing delicious food, and enjoying the Buddha's light together.

The lifeless koi is an interesting existence that does not live and die in the Wuyuan lotus pond. The "Diamond Sutra" says that all dharmas are empty and empty, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor clean, neither increasing nor decreasing.The holy water in the sourceless lotus pond is living water that has no source and is born out of thin air. On a calm and sunny day, it can still make circles of ripples, and the bottom of the pond is an endless flow of living springs.Without beginning and without end, without source and without end.And the lifeless koi are magical creatures transformed by the light of Buddha. They bathe in infinite light, enjoy infinite life, and do not fall into reincarnation. fish.

Qianye was staring at their leisurely form in a daze, when suddenly, he saw his own reflection in the lotus pond—in an instant, from the face of a peerless young man, to withered, withered, and ruined, like a flower that has fully bloomed Its last splendor.Suffering and destruction of Tao, birth, old age, sickness and death, this is the law of reincarnation, and it is the pain that the souls who have not become Buddhas cannot escape.However, Qianye, who has always cherished his appearance, saw his aging self for the first time, and he couldn't help feeling scared, and cupped his face.One touch, as usual, delicate eyebrows and eyes, high nose bridge, slender lips, elastic jade skin, where are there any signs of aging?

how could be?Could it be that I still can't figure it out?I thought that all kinds of things in the world can be let go at any time like a dream, but in the end, I still retain a deep "ego".Qianye, is this your cultivation?

When Qianye lost his mind for a moment, he saw the koi carp that had been swimming in the pool suddenly turned into rigid stone sculptures that did not move, and sank to the bottom of the water piece by piece.

"Lifeless koi!"

Qianye hurriedly called out, and saw that pool of clear water turned into a sea of ​​blood, and the calm and waveless water suddenly set off huge waves.The sticky and foul-smelling blood splashed Qianye's white clothes, and splashed Qianye's mouth and face. He seemed to have tasted the taste of blood, the insane heat that overflowed with a strong rust smell, His mouth boiled.

"A sea of ​​blood for ten thousand years in the hell realm! How could it be?!" This is under the bodhi tree where the Buddha once attained enlightenment.

While Qianye was in a panic, another terrifying vision appeared.The green lotus that was originally floating on the lotus pond turned into petals of flesh and blood flowers carved out of flesh and blood floating corpses, with fingernails on the tips of the petals.The small lotus pod in the center of the lotus, which was originally wrapped by petals, suddenly swelled rapidly and turned into a grimace.And the lotus seeds inlaid on it all turned into blood eyes. In the pool of blood, blood tears flowed, rolled the bloodshot eyeballs, looked up, down, left, and right, and finally stared at the countless eyes at the same time. Qianye was stunned by the pool of blood.

It's magic energy!It is a virtual realm transformed by a powerful sea of ​​blood resentment!

Thinking of this, Qianye forced himself to calm down, sat cross-legged by the pool of blood, and recited those verses repeatedly:

"Bodhi Sato, according to Prajna Paramita, there is no hindrance in the heart;

There is no hindrance, no terror, far away from reversing dreams, and finally Nirvana. "

Finally, the waves calmed down by Qianye's ears, and the glaring blood stains on his face, hands, and skirt disappeared.

When he opened his eyes again, there was no sea of ​​blood, no stone fish, no corpse flowers, no blood eyes.Yes, it was just a bloody monster lying weakly by the pool.
