God of Wealth is by your side

Chapter 65: Chase ([-])

Jin Yuanbao was like the Monkey King who escaped from Wuzhi Mountain. He jumped in the forest for a while, and then remembered the problem of dinner and accommodation tonight. He is now a mortal body, so of course he still needs to solve the problem of eating.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, there is Guangde Temple next to it. Although it is a temple and not a Taoist temple, it is a family of Buddhism and Taoism. It should be no problem to go for a night. A cute and knowledgeable young man like him, who has the heart to let him sleep in the open What about the wild?

Jin Yuanbao ran into the temple. There were very few people in the temple. He walked in and walked around. In a wing room, he saw an old mage giving a lecture to lay Buddhists. He told the story of Huineng, the sixth patriarch of Zen Buddhism:

"The 'Nanlang Zuozao', which has been passed down as a beautiful talk by the world, is actually a debate on 'how to become a Buddha'. Shenxiu said: 'The body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is like a mirror stand. Always wipe it diligently. Make it stain the dust.' Huineng said in a verse: 'There is no tree for Bodhi, and the mirror is not a stand. There is nothing in the first place, so where is the dust?''

In fact, Jin Yuanbao has participated in many seminars of the Western Buddha and the immortals in the heavens, but he felt that it was too boring, and in fact he did not agree with the Western Buddha's point of view, so every time he either dozed off or entered into a meditation. When I really listened to it, I found it quite interesting to listen to the master's lecture now, so I found a futon in the back to sit down and listen to it.

"Shenxiu still has a tree and a bright mirror in his heart. He can only practice gradually to enter a state of tranquility. Huineng's heart is completely selfless and has completely entered the Zen state of enlightenment. It can be said that this is the way of nothingness. The mind overcomes the mind with things, and has truly reached the state of "heart without hindrance" mentioned in the "Heart Sutra."

Jin Yuanbao was fascinated when he heard this, tilted his head slightly, and said, "If there is no self and nothing in the heart, how can we cultivate?"

His voice was not loud at all, he was just talking to himself, but the room was quiet, so it was a bit abrupt, and the people in front couldn't help turning their heads to look at him, even the old mage who was sitting in the first lecture looked at him.

Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, Jin Yuanbao quickly stuck out his tongue and said with a sneer, "I'm sorry, sorry, I just accidentally said what I thought, I'm sorry."

Just listen to the old mage in front with a slight smile: "How to practice, there is a saying in the "Tan Sutra": "Buddhism is in the world, and you can't leave the world to realize it. Seeking Bodhi after leaving the world is just like asking for the horn of a rabbit." Eyes, ears, mouth and nose are the gates of the city. There are five gates outside, and there is consciousness inside. The heart is the ground, and the nature is the king. The nature of the mind is practice, the Buddha works in the nature, don't seek outside the body."

Jin Yuanbao frowned: "Ordinary people will eventually return to the human world, and the seven emotions and six desires are unavoidable. This is the law of heaven. If you keep your heart and mind, isn't it against the law of heaven?"

The mage in the seat was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then smiled knowingly: "Young fellow Taoist, do you have attachments in your heart, or are you here to discuss the Tao with the poor monk?"

Jin Yuanbao also smiled, and said, "It's true that I was puzzled. I saw the master was giving a lecture here, so I came to listen to it. I didn't mean to offend."

The mage nodded, and then said: "The so-called practice is not what you said, sitting on a futon in violation of the laws of heaven and not eating fireworks in the world, but to practice the three learnings of precepts, concentration, and wisdom. Monk Shenxiu said: 'All evil should not be called names. Precepts, all good practices are called wisdom, and self-purification is called samadhi.' And Huineng said: 'There is no self-nature in the mind, no ignorance in the mind, self-nature wisdom, and the mind-in-law's self-nature samadhi.' Therefore, the most important thing is to cultivate It's just a heart."

"If my heart is infatuated with love, I will be stupid. If my heart is moved, I will have no concentration, and I will not be able to practice precepts, concentration and wisdom. Is this the case? Isn't this going back to the non-human fireworks?"

The mage smiled and shook his head: "No, if you are affectionate but not infatuated, you are wisdom; if your heart is moving but not chaotic, you are samadhi; if you are deeply affectionate, you are ruthless; if your heart is more than agitated, you are confused. Even it is a kind of obsession, so for you, follow the way of heaven and follow your heart, don't be too obsessed, isn't it just practice?"

After Jin Yuanbao heard it, he repeated it several times in his heart, and then he was enlightened, his eyes lit up, his face smiled, and he said to the mage, "Master's Dharma is exquisite, I have learned it."

I have feelings for Huo Mingcheng, this is my heart, Huo Mingcheng loves me, this is a chance of heaven, I am too obsessed with the six senses, self-cultivation and self-cultivation to avoid feelings, this is obsession, but in the face of feelings, accept Huo Mingcheng , It seems that having the seven emotions and six desires deviates from the practice of Taoism, but this conforms to the way of heaven and the heart, which is precisely a kind of practice.

Jin Yuanbao felt that all the doubts in his heart had dissipated in the past few days, and his state of mind suddenly became clear like the sky after the rain. This feeling seemed to be at the same frequency as the natural world, which was extremely mysterious. I haven't felt this way for a long time.

heaven.

"Master Uncle, I have descended to the mortal world to save Bai Wuyou, but whether he can return to Master Uncle's side depends on his own good fortune." Manjusri Guangfa respectfully bowed to the person above him.

The person at the top slowly stroked his beard, looked at the clear sky in the distance, and said in a gentle voice: "It's good to have been saved... Uncle Shi is destined to return to his place in this world, and Bai Wuyou will return to his side. Help him awaken his primordial spirit and survive countless kalpas."

……

As he wished, Jin Yuanbao had a fast meal at Guangde Temple, and also got tonight's accommodation.

Sitting in the dining hall of Guangde Temple, he ate a delicious vegetarian meal. He felt that his heart was fine, and even the vegetarian meal was extremely delicious.After dinner, he went for a walk around Guangde Temple.

Guangde Temple was built on a mountain, and the mountains in the south of the Yangtze River are not high, but the beauty is that the scenery is beautiful, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and wandering in it is not lacking in fun.

He plans to settle down at Guangde Temple tonight and return to Huo's house tomorrow. Anyway, he has figured it out now and no longer escapes from his own heart. Even if Huo's family or Huo Mingcheng brings him doom, it is his fate, let alone What's more, with Huo Mingcheng around, he is not afraid.Thinking of Huo Mingcheng, Jin Yuanbao remembered his embarrassing words and actions, and couldn't help but blush.

"Oh, the Buddhist gate is pure and pure, what am I thinking, blasphemy of Western Buddhism." Jin Yuanbao patted his face, bounced back to his room.

What he was allocated was a wing room for laymen or pilgrims. The conditions were slightly better than the City God Temple last time, and there were books on Buddhist stories in the room to read, so he went to bed early and read by the bedside lamp.

Most of the Buddhist stories are stories about Bodhisattvas and Arhats before they became Buddhas and the origins of some Buddhist festivals. Jin Yuanbao looked at it and felt a little bored, and sleepiness gradually hit him. He was about to fall asleep in a daze when he heard someone outside knock on the door.

He broke away from sleepy eyes and looked at the clock beside him, and found that it was only after eight o'clock, which was still early, probably the monk in charge of the accommodation came to him?He yawned, dragged his shoes and went to open the door:

"who's that……"

As soon as the door opened, Huo Mingcheng's face as gloomy as Yama of the Ten Palaces came into view.

"Oh my god!" Jin Yuanbao was startled, and instinctively turned around to run, but one hand hugged his waist, and the other hand held something on his nose, and he sucked , It was dark in front of my eyes, and my whole body fell limply.

Huo Mingcheng picked up the fainted Jin Yuanbao, turned around and left.
