The Red Mansion Is Like a Jade Gentleman
Chapter 203 Eminent Monk?Or a demon monk?
Lin Hai's remarks can be said to have touched the hearts of ordinary people. In fact, to be honest, many rational people don't think much about Buddhism in their hearts. The so-called equality of all beings is fundamental in real society. It doesn't make sense, the one with power and money is always the uncle.
But sometimes this kind of saying is the biggest wish of the ordinary people who are struggling at the bottom of society, so Buddhism is still very marketable at certain times, especially the so-called Songzi Guanyin.We must know that in ancient times, the problem of offspring was not only a sharp sword hanging over women's heads, but also for men.
This is also Lin Hai's brilliance. If he hadn't said these words, anyone with eyes would know that he was here to find fault!But Lin Hai said that he doesn't believe in Buddhism, but his wife believes that he came to the temple to fulfill his wife's vows, so it can be said that he saw this incident by accident, but came to find fault on purpose.
Those who are well-informed know that the young grandmother of the Lin family gave birth to a fat boy not long ago. As for whether Kong Jiayi believes in Buddhism or not, no one knows, so there is really no loophole in Lin Hai's statement.
Although Lin Hai's words are reasonable, there are still a lot of low-level Buddhist believers, so at this time, people are only a little angry, but not angry.
What Lin Hai has to do now is to arouse public anger.
Only when public anger is aroused, can Lin Hai escape and stand on the side of justice forever. In the future, even if there are people who believe in Buddhism in the officialdom, they will not deliberately embarrass Lin Hai. After all, he is not anti-Buddhism, but to expose false That's all monks!
Sometimes Lin Hai is very insidious, he knows how to use all resources that are beneficial to him, such as now.
Lin Hai knew that his appearance was very deceptive, and the world's views on a gentleman were different.But before he was exposed as a hypocrite, no one doubted the correctness of what he said.
Gentle as jade, elegant gentleman.
As long as Lin Hai wants to pretend, he can always interpret the meaning of these eight characters very well. Although he can't do what his brother-in-law Kong Boshu did, from the inside out, he can still put on a show in front of strangers very easily. did it.
Lin Hai smiled elegantly at the people below, "As far as I know, although the so-called eminent monks are not people who do not eat the fireworks of the world, they should be sincere to the Buddha, and they should not care about these common things. And according to A little bit of insight from me, shouldn’t the monastery’s sesame oil money be used to repair Buddha statues and benefit the common people?”
Lin Hai is right. The temple's sesame oil money is indeed basically used to repair Buddha statues and benefit the common people.The rest, according to the understanding of ordinary people.It is also used to buy Buddhist scriptures and incense.After all, monks are vegetarians, and the price of vegetables in ancient times was really not expensive, but the price of meat was higher.
Master Yuanxin is a monk who is over half a year old, but judging from his appearance, he is only in his early thirties, and his maintenance is astonishing.He was nine feet tall.Much taller than the average person, wearing a wide crimson cassock, the expression on his face is not angry but majestic.Don't be arrogant.
He was born in Songshan Shaolin. Like many monks when he was young, he had noble sentiments, studied Buddhism, and had profound attainments in Buddhism.But after coming to the capital.He has fallen.Chang'an is a world of flamboyance. There are as many wealthy households in the city as there are fish and shrimp in the river.They seek peace of mind.Donate sesame oil money to the temple from time to time.The sesame oil money received in January is more than Songshan Shaolin's sesame oil money in a year.
But there is too much money for sesame oil, and it is far from enough to repair Buddha statues, because the capital is rich and there is no need for them to donate to other poor people.Therefore, the money in their hands is accumulating more and more.In the end, I couldn't spend it, and it piled up into a mountain of money.
In order to spend the money and not get moldy in the warehouse, they are constantly improving their lives.
This change is finished.
Everyone knows a truth: from poverty to luxury is easy, from luxury to poverty is difficult.
Gradually, their lives became more and more extravagant, and Qianshan was also completely consumed in their extravagance.At this time, they have already lived a luxurious life, and it is impossible to change it.As a result, they have become more and more snobbish, constantly relying on this method to increase their reputation in order to get more profits.
Not just Master Yuanxin.
The same is true of other temples in the capital or most of the temples built in prosperous places. Because the area where they are located is rich, they couldn't bear the temptation and became fake monks covered in copper stink.
Without waiting for the monks to explain, Lin Hai had already found the best excuse for them, "When I was with my father-in-law in the temple before, I wondered about this matter, thinking that these monks had added some manuscripts of Buddhist scriptures from eminent monks." Lin Hai This is justified, because Buddhism is booming, and Buddhist scriptures, especially Buddhist scriptures written by eminent monks, are now very valuable.
"But" before the monks were relieved, Lin Hai changed his subject, "Wait until I hear all kinds of miraculous things about Master Yuan Mo, I will have an epiphany!" Lin Hai stopped here intentionally, arousing everyone's hearts Yes, but some people are curious, some people are uneasy!
It can be seen that Lin Hai's appearance is still very deceptive. No one doubts what Lin Hai said. Of course, this is also because what Lin Hai said is the truth.
He paused for a while, and waited for everyone to focus on him, before Lin Hai said, "Because I found out that all of this is a big scam, and everything in the temple is just a group of fake monks. Under the banner of the Buddha, it is just to cheat all the hard-earned money of the common people, they are not worthy of being a monk at all."
Lin Hai's words caused an uproar among the people below. Although Chen Fo Temple does not have a long history, and there are no particularly high-ranking monks sitting in the town, but because Master Yuanxin makes some pujas from time to time, let these monks talk about it. Buddhist scriptures that cannot be heard, so in the eyes of many people, this is the performance of an eminent monk.
Master Yuanxin and Master Yuanmo were also very angry at this time, Yuanxin had a gloomy face, and asked in a hazy voice: "Benefactor Lin's words are lying! I have been practicing Buddhism for more than forty years, how can Master Lin be able to do this?" Joking."
What Lin Hai wanted was Master Yuanxin to speak out, as long as he did so, the people below would stop chattering around!He is not interested in being a disciplinary committee member anymore!
Sure enough, as soon as Master Yuanxin spoke, the people below fell silent, waiting for Lin Hai's explanation, but if you look carefully, you can see sparks of anger in many people's eyes.
Lin Hai dared to say this with confidence, otherwise he would not have said this, and sneered, "Who stipulates that as long as a bald head and a cassock are on his body, he is a monk. There are five precepts in Buddhism. Don't kill, don't steal, don't commit adultery, don't tell lies, and don't drink alcohol. These five precepts are the basic precepts of the four disciples of Buddhism, and they should be obeyed no matter they are monks or at home. The ten virtues of Buddhism: don't kill, don't steal, don't No adultery, no lying, no double tongue, no harsh words, no flattery, no greed, no anger, no deviation from the Dharma.
From my point of view, only those who can achieve the five precepts and ten virtues can be called a real monk. Master Yuanxin, ask yourself, have you achieved the five precepts and ten virtues? "As Lin Hai said, he smiled mockingly at Master Yuanxin, "The Buddha said that there are gods three feet above the head, and there are eighteen hells. Master Yuanxin, I advise you to think carefully before answering. "
In fact, from the moment Master Yuanxin hesitated, some people already believed Lin Hai's words. The so-called five precepts and ten good deeds are the basic teachings of Buddhism. Not fit to be a monk anymore!
The reason why people respect monks is because in the eyes of ordinary people, being a monk is very great. To be a monk, you have to let go of everything, abandon everything in the world, don't eat meat, drink alcohol, marry a wife, be greedy or get angry.Sometimes people always look at things with admiration for things they can't do.
But now Lin Hai’s statement and Master Yuanxin’s hesitation undoubtedly tell everyone that being a monk is far from as difficult as everyone imagined, and sometimes the treatment is even better than that of a family child, which undoubtedly shatters everyone’s idol plot , making people angry.
Seeing that Master Yuanxin was speechless, Master Yuan Mo quickly said, "The words of Benefactor Lin are due to a lack of understanding of my Buddhism, which caused a misunderstanding..."
Lin Hai knew that most of these monks were eloquent, so he didn't dare to give them a place to play, so he immediately pretended to be furious, and beat and scolded Master Yuan Mo: "Well, you fake monk, you are still talking sweet words here, really I don’t cry when I see the coffin. I don’t have a deep understanding of Buddhism, but I won’t be someone who cheats people and makes money. You know the tricks you play, and you dare to quibble.” The people behind gave a few orders.
Everyone looked at the servants of the Lin family curiously. Speaking of Lin Hai's roar just now, it was really a bit of a bastard, and everyone was stunned at once!
Several servants of the Lin family got off the platform, and one of them took the firewood cutting knife that he had just found nearby, and dug towards the place where Master Yuan Mo performed his miracle under the puzzled eyes of everyone.
After several people dug for more than ten times, someone screamed, and everyone realized that someone wanted to go up and stop it. After all, this was the disrespect of Duo Guanyin Bodhisattva.
But Lin Hai sneered and floated over, "I will prove to everyone that this so-called eminent monk is indeed an eminent monk! He is still a monstrous monk who cheats people of money. Please be safe and calm."
