Chapter 483 Tianren Sect and Hinayana Dharma
Sun, Moon and Star Three Demons? What other celestial beings, Hinayana, Mahayana, emptiness, and sex in Buddhism?
For these, I feel very strange at night. In fact, I have heard of the three sects of the Sun, Moon and Stars of the Demon Sect, but I don't know anything about this in Buddhism.
The first time he saw the Holy Land of Buddhism was after he entered the Shadow Kingdom. The name of this place is said to be the country of shadows. In fact, in the eyes of the night, it looks like a golden country. In the local empire, the creatures in this seemingly desolate and barren place can actually take out so much manpower and materials to create so many brilliant, gorgeous and luxurious temples in the dark.
Are the people here using this way to show the richness of their spiritual world?
They don't have enough to eat and wear warm clothes, but they are willing to donate the gold and glass at home to shape the real body of the Buddha. They didn't eat enough oil, but they were willing to take out most of it and light the bright lamp for the Buddhist temple.
In the shadow country, he learned what Tianren religion is and what is Hinayana Buddhism. Wuhuan, the son of the shadow, completely fulfilled the friendship of the landlord. He took Jiang Ye in the famous temple in the shadow country and heard the master's statement. At the same time, he also introduced him to participate in some small Dharma meetings. In return, he shared some of his experiences and experiences in practicing the art of shadows.
It is undeniable that the reason why he knows that he can get courtesy is first of all because he is followed by the two future demon emperors of the underworld. At the same time, the identity of Xingxie is also valued. Lonely city, business and so on, people in the shadow country don't seem to be interested in this.
Several people looked very happy on this free trip, but Xing Xie kept complaining that he followed three girls behind him, but he didn't have any of them. In contrast, it was simply inferior and made him very stressed.
Then this person has always been thick-skinned, begging to make the night even, so as not to let others feel that the drought is dead, and the waterlogging is dead.
Jiang Ye was a little speechless. He couldn't say anything. He could only carry forward the spirit of being lazy and push the ball to three girls. Finally, at the cost of an artifact and a three-month younger brother, Ye Mei agreed to the business.
So it seems that the girl Ye Mei is more beneficial.
This is also a small episode. Most of the time, they spend their time visiting temples and attending Dharma meetings.
Although it is only a simple visit, the night still understands some of the basic situation of Buddhism in the shadow country.
According to Wuhuan, the Buddhism of the local empire is most prevalent in the shadow country and the soul country. Among the five sects of Buddhism, Tianrenism and Mahayana Buddhism are mainly distributed in the shadow kingdom, while the three Mahayana sects are concentrated in the soul kingdom.
What is Tianrenkyo? Tianren Religion believes that the real world is driven by a cause and effect karma. For good, there is good karma, evil karma, a circle of cause and effect, and bad retribution. Moreover, the soul is immortal, reincarnation in cause and effect, and the evil done in the previous life should be eliminated in the form of suffering in this life, and if you enjoy glory and wealth in your life, it means that you were a great good person in your last life.
Looking at life from this perspective, then the fate of a person's life is determined and is not controlled by others. What you can do is to eliminate the karma of the previous life by suffering, and then do good deeds for the next life.
Although he does not agree with the statement of reincarnation karma, he feels that this is a good ruling system.
In the view of the night, this system can well balance people's desires, desires and hopes. The theory of karma makes people restrain their desire. Don't do evil, suffer and endure, eliminate sin karma, and let people maintain a moderate desire. And the saying that it will benefit you in this life and enjoy it in the next life keeps people hope.
In this system, the hatred between classes is eased by deception. The reason why the rich and noble class enjoys wealth is considered to have accumulated blessings in their previous lives, and the reason why the poor and lowly people are tortured by poverty is that they have done evil in their previous lives. No one can say what happened in the previous life, and no one knows the truth, but when this statement forms a belief and system, the poor can only endure the oppression and exploitation of the rich.
Systemically speaking, I admire the person who created this belief system, who can keep the country under its faith and stability. But from the bottom of my heart, I despise this system of obtaining rule by deception. Although the power of cause and effect exists, it is impossible to write down all the things that you trample on an ant in your previous life, and then let you be bitten by ants in this life. In terms of sin karma, if you commit a crime in this life, it can be eliminated in this life, which is reasonable from the heart, but it is far-fetched to expect to the afterlife, or to repay the afterlife.
From the perspective of domination, he believes that this statement is purely far-fetched and the ideology of the ruler.
Of course, Tianren teaches that the practice of the Buddha will be superimposed to the next life, forming the so-called tired practice. In this way, as long as everyone works hard, they will be able to become a Buddha one day. For this statement, the night will not say anything. If there is no tired practice, what about the ghosts and night charms in front of you? If there is a saying that it is tiring to practice, isn't the effect of the power of cause and effect too strong?
After all, truth is truth. Jiang Ye feels the teachings of heaven and man, and there are false elements in front of the truth. Perhaps, the saint who formulated this doctrine believes that the original intention of exaggerating the power of cause and effect is good, that is, to hope that the people in the world will do evil and do good deeds and accumulate more well-being, but doing good by exaggeration and deception is like a well-intentioned lie. After all, it is just a lie.
Of course, there is a day when the lie is exposed, but this kind lie of the saint does not damage the saint's love for the world.
Relatively speaking, the teachings of Hinayana are going to go further in the eyes of the night. The essence of Hinayana is to cultivate the spirit and soul, free yourself from the impermanent real life, and achieve spiritual freedom through the strength of the spirit. Systemically speaking, The Hinayana teaches people to be monks, live a life of seclusion, have a thin material desire, and specialize in spiritual cultivation, which is a kind of self-Han behavior. Their achievements are only in their own spirit, and they don't care about everything except themselves.
Putting everything aside, the pure cultivation of one's own spirit is quite willing to have a taste. In the eyes of the general night, it seems to be pure. If a person can achieve a state of spiritual self and liberation through his own efforts without harming others, what reason do you have to condemn such a person? It's like a lazy person who can be self-sufficient and lazy without hurting others, and you have no reason to blame him.
If the teachings of Tianren Religion focus on building temples and spreading faith, then the practice of Hinayana is completely focused on the spirit and soul.
They cultivate the spirit, exercise the soul, use the power of the spirit and soul to restrain their desires, obtain desires, and finally achieve the immortal hope of the soul.
On top of practicing the Dharma, I learned a lot at the Dharma meeting. For example, there is a practice method about the soul coming out of the body. A person who has successfully practice can fly his soul into the air and see his body. For this method, according to the understanding of the night, perhaps the soul exists in its own shadow, and through spiritual sustenance, the shadow flies to the sky and sees its own body.
There are also some very interesting methods, such as visualizing a bodhi gold statue with spirituality, and visualizing the body of the Buddha statue is the true face of oneself for thousands of generations. Watch the golden body of the Buddha statue glow, the golden glow in the eyes, and so on. In the eyes of the night, this method is similar to staying in the heart, so that the heart can stop in the source of the sea and look at the sea without being stained.
The more he learned about the night, the more he felt that whether it was practicing the spirit or the soul, it was equivalent to practicing the sea of knowledge. With the cultivation of the sea, the spirit and soul can naturally be freed.
Cultivation of the sea of knowledge is equivalent to the cultivation of spirit, which can naturally be understood, but why is the cultivation of the sea of knowledge equivalent to the cultivation of the soul? Because the sea of knowledge is also the sea of the heart, which is the place where the heart stops. The heart is pure and flawless, and naturally can emit glazed blue light and see the origin of the sea.
Get the method and experience of cultivating the spirit shared by the night, Wuhuan seems to be very kind, and also shares a method of refining the spiritual sacrifice of others into his own split. This kind of method is a little vicious and disgusting when you hear it, because refining other people's souls into your own split is equivalent to killing others and enslaveing other people's souls. At that time, after listening to it, I thought it was a good method.
Spirit and soul do not refer to the same thing. You can regard the soul as the heart of the spirit, and the spirit is just the coat of the soul. When the soul is reincarnated, the energy of the spirit will collapse. It is equivalent to the transcendence of the heart in the sea of hearts, and the whole sea of hearts is scattered, with all the memories stored in the sea of hearts.
Before practicing this method, you need to build a country of faith, which is called the soul worm, the worm of soul nourishing. Of course, ordinary faith countries do not have the high quality of sacred artifacts as soul mages. They can be used as a place to stop the spirit of life. The creatures that can enter the soul must have faith in those who have the soul, otherwise they will be rejected by the country of faith. In the kingdom of faith, there is a special transcendental array, which can wrap the spirit in the soul. It can be imagined that the original heart in the sea of knowledge is transcended, enters reincarnation, and the remaining spirit can be used by the Lord of the soul.
The Lord of the soul can sacrifice the soulless spirit in the soul through the power of faith to make it his own split. Once this split is refined, because of faith, it will not burden the spirit and soul of the subject, and the subject can accept the spiritual help of the split.
In this way, the authentic skills of Buddhism are all based on the compassion of doing good deeds. This kind of method of refining the country of faith and then transcending the soul is extremely useful on the battlefield. After a big war, the soul with strong resentment formed will stop on the battlefield and suffer the pain of resentment. And if they accept the faith of Buddha's light and enter the soul, they can peel off the resentment and easily reincarnation of the soul.
Perhaps because of this, soldiers who believe in Buddhism will be so tough and brave on the battlefield. Even if they practice the magic skills, they will accept the transcendance of Buddhism, so that they will no longer worry about the problems after death.
