Chapter 37 liberation from the ancestors

This newborn small world gave Qiao Xiaoxuan a kind of return to the moment of chaos. In that muddle-headed state, an original body composed of hundreds of millions of different sizes of heaven and earth was born. This original body is called Taichu, which is a small light spot, which evolved from this small light spot. This small light spot is the foundation of the ten-way world. This small light spot is probably the "Tao" that ingenizes all things. "Tao" gives birth to all things and grows all things in return. Tao is omnipresent, omnipotent, omnipotent, omnipotent, omnipotent, omnipotent and inclusive. The alias of Tao is probably "Wuji". According to the theory of the ancestors, Wuji gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to two instruments, two instruments give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to all things. So there is an endless ten-way world. Of course, this is just the theory of the ancestors. All theories must be related to reality and prove it with facts. Otherwise, no matter how wonderful and mysterious the theory is, it is empty. Qiao Xiaoxuan never believes in his ancestors. He warned and reminded himself millions of times in his heart: 'Don't accept any truth because you have heard it many times; just because you believe in tradition or predecessors; just because many people say so; just because it conforms to the fairy scriptures you read; just because it sounds reasonable; just because it conforms to yourself. Faith; just because his master preaches so much, his master is very charming and he admires him very much.' Only when you experience and understand this truth yourself and find that it is complete and helpful to individuals or others, you should not only believe in it, but also practice it.

The small light spot slowly expands and expands, becoming a small silver-white photosphere the size of a fist. This small photosphere but not a small photosphere undergoes fission in the process of continuing to expand, from one to three. This small world tolerates everything, so that all contradictions and antagonisms melts in it, attracting each other and repel each other. , contradictory and integrated, all-encompassing and ultimate unity.

At this moment, a small green round ball appeared in front of Qiao Xiaoxuan's eyes. Soon, a vibrant scene emerged from this small ball. Qiao Xiaoxuan clearly saw an unopened small city-state on this small ball, which is called "No Life City". Qiao Xiaoxuan saw a kind-looking and shining old man in blue robe talking everywhere in Wusheng City and crossing all sentient beings. Qiao Xiaoxuan knew that he was an immortalist who had experienced a long period of years and had practiced tens of millions of years. After some observation, Qiao Xiaoxuan knew that this benevolent and amiable elder-like immortalist had never become an immortal?

This immortal cultivater has indeed not obtained the Tao to become an immortal, because he has deviated from the right path, has never proved the true Tao and has not obtained the Tao to become an immortal.

This old man was born in an unopened small city-state in the Westland on such a small ball. His name is Mani Duzun, and his legal name is Wusheng. Many people in the world call him a lifeless immortal. From the day he cultivated immortals, the old man swore at the beginning: "If you don't become an immortal, you will become a demon." The old man's footprints were all over the small city-state. Before he was born, the small city-state had no name. Since his birth, this small city-state took the old man's legal name as the city name and was called "No Lifeless City". The old man preached his "blissless lifeless forbearance" everywhere, and advised the world to give up the great sea of suffering and the sea of fire, and cultivate the "blissless lifeless forbearance" on the other side, also known as "the other side of the law forbearance". Everything should be left to fate and give up all the glory and wealth of the world, because these are past glances, whether there are and no peace. Some are the same, but in the end, they will still become nothing. The pursuit of glory and wealth is to take a detour, give up, and go straight to the other side of liberation. All material and spiritual pursuits are strictly prohibited. The pursuit of greed is a big demon. If one person practices lifeless forbearance, we should persuade the whole family to practice lifeless forbearance. We advise parents, wives and children not to eat the fireworks of the world like themselves, sit cross-legged, hold their breath, and go straight to the "lifeless shore". Under Mani's unique evil preaching, the city of no life is full of starving bones. Mani's sole respect is reasonable no matter what he does. He warned his disciples thousands of times that he should imitate nothing but bring him tea and food. He must reach a state of "ignorance and desire" before he can go to the other side of liberation. He warned his disciples thousands of times not to imitate what he did, because he had been reborn to the other side of liberation and came back from the other side of liberation to ferry all sentient beings. Self-proclaimed "Rise the Ancestor".

Qiao Xiaoxuan's natural and relaxed eyes when he saw the liberation of the ancestor's statement, the face of the liberation of the ancestor was like a beautiful full moon, and the eyes of the liberation of the ancestor were clear and kind. Those loyal believers who listened to the words of liberation from the ancestors felt the ease and joy of liberation, which penetrated into the hearts of every believer at that moment.

One of the disciples with the legal name "Stay away from upside down", that is, from the seat, he favored his right shoulder, bowed his hands respectfully and relieved his ancestors and said, "How should a practitioner treat beauty? Will beauty, especially women's beauty, hinder practice?

Jiezu looked kind and said, "Stay away from upside down. You have raised this question well. Now listen to the true meaning, disciples, you all listen to the true meaning: the truth of all laws is beyond beauty and ugliness. Beauty and ugliness are just ideas created in our hearts. They are inseparable from the five aggregates. In the eyes of a relieved practitioner, everything can be regarded as beautiful and ugly. A river, a cloud, a leaf, a flower, a ray of sunshine or a golden afternoon all have different beauty. The golden bamboo beside us is also very beautiful. But perhaps no beauty can move a man more easily than a woman's beauty. If this man is fascinated by beauty, he will breed sin and lose Taoism. When you have seen through, you will see that the beautiful is still beautiful, and the ugly is still ugly. But because you have been freed, you will not be tied to any of them. When a relieved person sees beauty, he will also see the part that contains the beauty. This person will understand all the impermanence and emptiness, including all the beautiful and ugly. Therefore, he will not be fascinated by beauty and will not resist ugliness. The only beauty that will not fade and cause distress is compassion and a freed heart. Compassion is unconditional and hopeless love. The relieved heart is not affected by any external environment and external factors. Disciples, give up everything. Only by giving up everything will you prove to be truly beautiful. Disciples, get rid of all distracting thoughts and all greed, cut off life and death with the sword of liberation, but everything is returned to a state of silence and death. In this way, you can prove that you have no life tolerance and reach the 'city of liberation on the other side'.

"Faithful disciples, I am sincerely happy that your spirit is worthy of praise. I now solemnly declare that this school is called 'free liberationism' or 'through the other side'. It is because of you loyal disciples. Only when I was free from the religion was able to continue the Dharma vein. Disciples, you should let your relatives know that your body is a collection of five aggregates, which is an illusory and untrue thing. You all have self-awareness. For practitioners, self-awareness is called me persistence. Because you have me persistence, you have this illusion. You have been trapped in six hells and cannot be freed. You must break my stubbornness and get out of six hells. Don't be fooled by the illusion of the six colorful hells. On the surface, these illusions are endless and vibrant. In fact, the essence of the illusion has not moved at all. What moves is change, and only what does not move is unchanged. Everything that changes is fast-changing, illusory and illusory, and illusory. Only the unchanged ontology is real, and the unchanged ontology is outside the six hells, called a true fairyland. There is no life or death, no increase or decrease. You give up this illusion, put down everything, and you will arrive at a real fairyland. How to give up this illusion is to sit still. Sitting is also called sitting. Why is it called sitting a dust? The dust is to dust all blasp. Things, including selfish thoughts, are all urraun. Things, to practice without ignorance and desire, ignorance and desire can naturally enter the state of innate. When you enter the innate state, you can predict foresight and anticipate things like God. But if you have a prophetic foresight, don't be happy and don't use it. These are all your own potential instincts. They are self-sufficient, not external. From the perspective that all the Dharmas are empty, the prophetic precept has no meaning. Everything in this illusion of heaven and earth is composed of five aggregates. As large as the cosmic stars, as small as the dust, whether it is birds, animals, flowers and trees, deep sea or mountains, and even air and sunlight, they are all illusions. They do not exist. There is no fixed and unchanged entities. They are short-lived entities. Because they are not real, they cannot be fixed and unchanged. In. Heaven and earth are bad, but nothing is not bad. Every illusion has its own life. The so-called life is not life. Life is the continuation of karma, life is the seed of reincarnation, and life is the root of all evil. Life is bitter. Life is sad. Life is a cage. Life is a grave. Life is a continuation of the three poisons of greed and hatred. Only with life can we be free. The process of phantom life can be long or short, long for hundreds of millions of years. In a short moment, everything depends on its life cycle. Dear loyal disciples, you should have a clear conclusion about the understanding and positioning of life. You must not blur it any more. Don't always think that living is just living. In addition to keeping your duty, being content with the status quo and taking care of yourself, eating, drinking and sleeping seems to be the whole of life. This idea is a cancer that must be completely eliminated. Don't let this cancer be deeply rooted in your mind. This cancer is the biggest demon that hinders your practice. Only by completely removing this cancer can you completely break the old ideas. Since then, you have awakened, so that you have reached a muddle-headed state of 'Tao'. It's called 'Tao', enlightenment. If you get the Tao, you can't be complacent, the fairy scriptures; 'Although the name is the Tao, you don't get anything. In order to save all sentient beings, you can get the Tao under the false name'. Immortal Sutra says; 'All aspects are false. If you see that they are not, you can see the ancestors.' Immortal Sutra: 'If you see me with color and beg me with sound, it is a person's evil way, and you can't raise it accurately.' The ancestor has always been there. There is an eternal existence. If you want to see the ancestor with a color voice, you can't see the ancestor at all. By the way, the ancestor is my eldest disciple. You should know a truth and everything is empty, so that you can give up everything and become immortals. All life is born from the empty body and is destined to return to the empty body. The empty body is in the palm of my hand. Look."

At this time, a small light spot appeared in the right palm of the palm of the liberation of the ancestor. The liberation of the ancestor turned the palm down, and the small light point left the palm of the liberation ancestor. It continued to expand and become bigger. It was divided into two, two into four, and doubled the division, increased the number, and some rose. , some fell. In an instant, tens of millions of small silver-white photospheres were formed.

The ancestor smiled and said with a kind and amiable look, "You see, this is how your so-called colorful world is generated. The palm of my hand was originally empty, but it could produce countless small light balls. You should know that nothing is not really empty, which is called vacuum. Vacuum can be wonderful. If you want to achieve the beauty of a vacuum, it is not difficult at all. Put down everything, and never see your ancestors in one thought. To see the ancestor, you can see my eldest disciple to refer to the ancestor, and you can also see my ancestor. This ancestor is for convenience, so you have the opportunity to meet my ancestor. You should cherish the hard-won opportunity. This is a great blessing, and you should cherish it. My ancestor only said in the Lifeless City that all sentient beings in the Lifeless City to the other side of liberation. At that time, it was time for my ancestor to die. At that time, my ancestor's task was successfully completed and was about to die under the Yuanjue tree. After the death of my ancestor, he will not come to the secular world. After the silence, the real body is in Dading, and people who don't have enough opportunities can't be seen at all. At that time, the ancestors you met were usually the eldest disciples of my ancestors. My ancestors did not save the unstined people, and all sentient beings outside the city were greedy for pleasure. They took the illusion of the five aggregates as real, recognized the illusion thief as their father, and could not be freed in their lives. Crossing all sentient beings in the lifeless city to the other side of lifelessness and death, the task of my ancestors was successfully completed. At that time, the eldest disciple of this ancestor will be recommended and appear in the city-state with Dacheng root weapons. The eldest disciple of this ancestor, Zhun Ti, appeared in the five turbid evil worlds. At that time, there were few root tools for all sentient beings to become immortals. The ancestors personally pulled them to the other side of liberation and let them get out of the six hells. They went to the other side of liberation and fell into the six hells. Liberation in the secular world, silence in the present.

The palm of the liberation of the ancestor and said the word "return". To be precise, the number of those small photospheres began to double. To be precise, it was not doubled, but fused together. Finally, those small photospheres merged into one and returned to the original state of a small light spot. This small light point returned to the palm of the ancestor. . Jiezu said the word "silence", and the little light point got into the palm of Jiezu's hand and disappeared.

"Faithful disciples, listen to me tell a story: there is such a human mother and son facing a group of newborn sparrows. The group of sparrows were put into a shoe box with some hay. At first, they curled up in a corner, and their small heads tried to be buried in the light velvet gray-brown fur, revealing only eight panicked eyes to look at the human mother and son. After a while, the group of little sparrows finally began to feel uneasy and made a thin and sharp cry. The simple son understood and immediately brought some rice and a small plate of water to put in it. Who would have thought that they were too small to peck by themselves? They looked at the food in front of them, still held their four small heads high, opened their tender and big mouths that were extremely out of harmony with their bodies, and muttered at the human mother and son. As a mother, she suddenly found that her son, who usually sits still for relief, is lazy and taciturn, but at this moment, he shows amazing patience and love, holding the rice grains in his hand, gently feeding the birds' mouths and feeding them one by one. There is also a way to imitate the tone of adults when feeding children. The birds seemed to be very obedient and cooperated obediently. Their throats might be smaller, so they stretched their necks and shook their heads, trying to swallow the food. Later, the mother's son fed them some water, and the birds finished their first lunch after leaving their mother.

"In the next few days, feeding this group of sparrows three meals a day has become the responsibility of the mother's son. Sometimes feeding early in the afternoon, the group of sparrows will keep screaming in the evening. At this time, the mother's son will bring the biscuits or cakes he eats and crush them to feed the group of sparrows, so an extremely warm picture appears in front of the mother. Sometimes when interest comes, this mother will join her son's love and feed these cute little guys something. After eating, she found that there were some grateful elements from the clear eyes of this group of small sparrows, which gave this mother an unprecedented feeling and experience.

"After a week, this group of little sparrows have been able to eat by themselves, and their heads are much bigger and their wings are getting fuller and fuller. Opening the box, the group of sparrows flew low and jumped around the house, and even landed on the shoulders and legs of the human mother and son, crying happily, as if they were having a happy festival of their own. And this seems to be infected by this group of small sparrows. Even the originally dull mood will gradually become relaxed and a faint smile will begin to appear on their faces. When the weather is good and leisurely, the son will make an appointment with his mother to take them to play in the suburbs, put them in the dark but dense grass, and let them chase and play with each other. The son let his mother watch, and he took the glass bottle and went around to catch the crays, tree insects and so on, and planned to prepare a rich lunch for the little ones. Looking at the carefree and happy game birds and the son who concentrates on catching insects, at that moment, my mother began to feel the mediocrity of life and the boredom of living, and the equality of life to another life slowly surged in my mother's heart! At present, life is just a form of karma reincarnation, a recurring realization, which is a meaningless repetition, and the root of the repetition is the color shell generated by this collection of five aggregates. This collection of five aggregates is the culprit of the obstacle to liberation, and only by shelling can it be released. From then on, he sought liberation. Finally, the budding lotus flower in the depths of his heart opened, forming a pure and spotless lotus platform. A pure body sat on this lotus platform and saw the ancestor of Zhunti. The mother taught the mother the lifeless method of tolerance. The mother practiced the lifeless method of forbearance and finally reached the other side of liberation, known as No mother. The son of the motherless mother realized earlier than his mother, because the child's nature is simple and closer to the state of "Tao" than adults, and the child is easier to prove and obtain the Tao, so the son of the mother of the mother is also relieved and is called the immortal.
