Chapter 22 Two Religion Dispute 1
Then, two giant men appeared in the void, one with a fierce face, wearing a purple robe, shining with dazzling purple light, sitting on a huge colorful auspicious cloud, with golden auspicious light all over his body. A kind-browed man wearing a purple robe. On the surface, this kind-browed man is dressed in the same as the purple robe worn by the fierce-looking man, but this can only deceive those who practice low. When the realm reaches a certain level, you can see that this kind-browed man's purple robe. Mixed with dark green, sitting on a huge colorful lotus cloud can only deceive those who have a low level of practice. To a certain level, you can see that this colorful lotus cloud is mixed with dark green evil light. In the eyes of people with a low level of practice, this kind-looking man is all over the body and the fierce face. Men are also full of golden light, but people who have reached a certain level of practice can see that the golden light of this kind-looking man is mixed with countless dark green evil lights.
Each of the two giant men has a class of their own disciples, which are speaking to his disciples separately. The fierce-looking middle-aged man is from the Oriental Immortal Gate, and the kind-looking middle-aged man is from the Western Immortal Gate.
I only heard the giant man of the Immortal Gate in the West open his mouth of pity and say, "If you dig a foot of the ground, there is a foot of emptiness. If you dig a foot of the ground, then a foot of void appears. It is the void that is originally in the ground, not after digging the ground. There is another void that enters from the outside. It is known that the earth is not different from the emptiness. The earth is empty, and the earth is empty. If we dig a foot of the ground, there will be a foot of void. For example, if we dig a well, we will dig the ground and dig a foot, and there will be a foot of void. If you dig a foot into the ground, a foot of void will appear. Is the earth going out and the void going in? There is nothing in the void, no inside or outside, no size, no access. If there is still something to go in, it is not a void. It is not true that the original intention of the void is lost. Therefore, the emptiness is in the earth, in the earth. Not after digging the ground, not after digging out the soil. There is another void entering from the outside, not from the outside, and there is another void entering the ground. We can say that if we know, we know a truth. The earth is not empty, we can say that this reasoning is valid. Empty is not *, empty is not*, the void is in the ground. If we fill this well, can we all see the void coming out of the well? No. The void is in the ground. When digging a well, there is no other void entering the ground. Filling the well is not the void in the well. The void is in the ground, that is, 'the earth is not empty', the earth is colored, and 'empty is not *'. The earth is empty, and the empty is the ground.
"For example, Guan Zixian told the great Rasha Bhikkhu Han: 'Relizi, the color is not different from the air, the air is not different from the color, the color is empty, and the air is the color'. This is called the truth directly. He can understand, solve it, and open his mind to the upper root man. For the middle root people, you have to pass a metaphor. I directly say that everyone doesn't know, what is 'color is not empty, empty is not different color, color is empty, empty is color'? Confusion is an obstacle. So, what should we do? For your middle and lower disciples, you have to reason and use metaphors to show this equal nature of 'color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different color, color is emptiness, and emptiness is color'.
"Through this dream, the dream is color, isn't it true? If it is true, then when we wake up, there should be a real dream to get, but because the dream is illusory and empty, the body is empty in the dream. There is no real law, and the dream is also formed by the heart and the mind. Everything we want to say and do during the day, good or bad, and the length is also due to the heart. Amitabha said, 'Everything is like a dream bubble'. Dreaming at night is the law. Everything we want to say and do during the day, and all these things are also done. Originally, they are equal and no different. Therefore, we say that the cause of dream can successfully show the truth that 'color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color', so that everyone can understand.
"In the "No Life, Silence and Destruction Demon Sutra", it is said: 'All laws, such as dreams and bubbles, such as dew and electricity, should be seen as this'. It is in this way that we can free ourselves from the bondage of life and death. This is a way and convenient way. In the past few decades, what we think, say, do, all good and bad, bitterness and happiness, etc., were delusional and even harmful to others at that time, but is it not available now? Let me show it to everyone. No one is available. We realized that in the past, we felt self-harm, harmed others, and did not bring benefits for ourselves and all sentient beings. This is mainly because we did not learn the silent immortal method of the immortals in the past, and we were confused and confused.
The earth is the color method. Through this metaphor, the earth is the same. When the body is empty, the emptiness is in the earth, and the emptiness and the earth are originally the same. It is not that the color is outside the air, the space is outside the color, the enemy is opposite, and the emptiness is the earth.
"The two metaphors I told you are to let you understand what "color is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color". That is, the sky of color, when the body is selfless, the body is empty, like a dream, which is unavailable, that is, so that we can no longer be greedy and delusional to it. Don't be blasphemous and create evil in order to get all this material. The mind should be enlightened and purified, initiate the nature of wisdom, initiate benefits for itself and all sentient beings, and make all sentient beings happy, which is to initiate the great use of all the heart, the use of Prajna wisdom, and the benefit of all sentient beings.
The giant man of the Oriental Immortal Immortal Gate is also speaking to his class of disciples on the magic of immortality: "The art of becoming immortality is not only two kinds of internal and external elixir; most of the ancient immortals (referring to Zhengyangzi at the same time or before) have the following characteristics: they have been stationed for a long time, generally hundreds of years; their appearance is young and rarely aging. Some people are extremely morally profound, and even have the appearance of female immortals like boys, and male immortals like virgins; because most of them are sanctified in the body, there is rarely the phenomenon of simply practicing pure yang qi, so that they only come out of the yang gods; taking the shocking and vulgar feat of rising in the day is not the sitting of later generations, thus leaving a skeleton.
"Look at the so-called mons in later generations, introducing the theory of paganism, and actually despise the body. For the purpose of yang gods and reli, they think that the body cannot be sanctified. Even if you are refined to the point of being distracted, your appearance is still aging. The time spent in the world is no different from vulgarity, usually for decades, and even shows illness when sitting down. Zhengyangzi once said: immortality is the most important thing in immortality! He also said: Those who often talk about death as a corpse, why don't they stay in the world for one or 200 years and then dismember it? As the saying goes: There are no ugly real people, few weak immortals!' This phenomenon has nothing to do with the fairy family. I hope that the same way will deeply understand it, and clearly distinguish between right and evil, the left way of the side door, and the perverse and heresy.
"By the way: Mr. Kong said, 'The way is different, and we don't work together', which is very correct. If you don't talk about heaven, you can only talk wildly and don't know. There is no knowledge in the world, and it is true to say wrong. I don't want to show off my skills, but I just have a few words to tell you: to restore the true face of the immortals, history has sealed its true face for a long time, and I don't want pagan theories to infect the fairy face. The ancients are the most secret and important, and the art of long life, although it is divided into cities, it cannot be spread in vain. Today's paganism boasts and despises long life. It turns black and white upside down and refers to the deer as a horse. How poisonous it is! I am not talented, but I can't bear the birth of the immortal Jinhua to be reformed by paganism. May people live together and do my best.
"You speak cleverly all day long, but you can't practice the skills of practical evidence, and you are stubborn. Swing, do useless things; carving the ice, there is no way to achieve it in the end! As Lv Xian said: 'I also sigh that fools love to participate in meditation, and it is inevitable to die when they speak fast!', it should be noted that the Tao cannot be false, the immortals cannot be deceived, and only the noble and true merits are practiced! The immortal head of the family is immortal! Your test! Precious kung fu! Do practical things and don't want to forge an empty theory that you think is extremely wonderful and useless.
"Many people are blindly looking for teachers to rush in the day, and they feel that this move is futile. In the past, hegemons of all dynasties have raised the strength of the whole country, devoted themselves to the wealth of the whole country, and relied on their great talents, but still could not enter the door of immortality. What's more, there is no one in the position of hegemony of all dynasties? It is said that Jin Dan is not a good person, and he must be unuspicious. Moreover, burning Yaotai's immortal treasure is the most taboo to slander and destroy it, otherwise the evil spirit will not be able to enter. If you practice the art of ascending to the skies, you must stay away from the sound of chickens and dogs, the color of men and women, and the smell of obscenity. Otherwise, it will not only touch the true qi, but also be disgusted by God. Therefore, it has always been teachers looking for apprentices. How can there be apprentices looking for masters? It doesn't make sense. Lv Xian once said, 'Yang Gong's dark heart cultivation, good deeds often accumulate, and the fruits of the world meet teachers.' Ju Weizhong dares to tell the same way.
"So that the diversity of the world cannot be maintained. Those who advocate the integration of the Western Immortal Immortals and my Eastern authentic immortal Immortals are unreasonable! I don't advocate that the sects attack each other, but just want to explain: 'It's the people who come to the land quickly, and my way is not like my family'. Everyone has their own aspirations and can follow their own aspirations! Why is there no need to be greedy? There are two immortals and immortals. Xiu, make it nondescript.
Although both factions are called immortals, the two are very different. All sentient beings have the pain of reincarnation. In order to relieve the reincarnation, the Immortal Religion wants to destroy the life of the afterlife, hoping that after the destruction of this life, the afterlife will enter the realm of immortality and thus immortality, which can be said to be eternal death and life, so as to get rid of reincarnation; the immortality immortality hopes to become holy in this life and fly into the holy realm of Zhenyang, which can be said to be immortality, so as to get rid of reincarnation. Regardless of whether the above grand goals of the two can be achieved, if there are differences and common, the ultimate goal is to go against creation and jump out of reincarnation. You don't have to care about the height of the two. Everyone has their own aspirations and follows their own aspirations. The world of immortals has immortals, and there is a world of immortals with immortals. Why should you lower others and elevate yourself? But Jing Wei is clear and can't be unaware of it.
"I have read the ancient immortal scriptures and various ancient books for more than ten years. Although I have not obtained the true biography of the ancient immortals - Jinhua's birth, I occasionally got the art of refining the world. After several years, there is a nourishment test: my face is like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenager. I am tens of thousands of years old, and the world always recognizes me as a teenager, and there is an embarrassing situation. The more believed in later generations, the theory becomes more and more complex. There are various red tapes such as 'hundred-day foundation construction, refining of gas, refining gas refining gods, refining deification of deification, refining virtual and Taoism'. It can be said that it is far from the immortality. At most, it can only be said that it is a new product created by combining the theory of Taoism, immortals and immortals. Zhengyangzi once said that the secret is not enough to save the world. The fairy also said, 'Simple is wonderful, and you can get the way; if you are complicated, you will lose virtue.' Looking forward to the same way, I hope you can deeply observe it.
"According to the elixir Sutra of later generations, practicing shape is a small skill before the true qi is alive. If the true qi (pure yang qi) is born, it should generally be written as 'refine form'. What kind of practice do you ask me, guidance? Are you convinced? Spit? Fetal breath? Think about it? Forgetting? Neither, because I don't agree with the introduction of pagan theory in later Danjing. Therefore, I didn't learn the elixir of later generations. What is studied is the ancient immortal scriptures and various literati notes before Zhengyangzi. Ancient immortals are sanctified in the flesh, and their cultivation methods are different in later generations, which can be called 'Jinhua birth art'. Unlike later generations, when it comes to cultivating immortals, it is to refine the inner elixir to become a god. In fact, refining the inner elixir can be called the 'Dan family'. The cultivation of the inner elixir alone cannot be sanctified by the body. This move has lost the demeanor of ancient immortals. As Luo Gongyuan said: 'The ancient truth is not known to warlocks'. Lv Xian also said, 'Jinhua's birth is the method of true immortality, which hides the unpredictable opportunity of heaven and earth. Sincerely, it is a secret matter of the Three Qing Dynasty, and it is often passed on forever.' Because of the fate of immortality, I have to peep at a small part of the essence, so I have achieved something.
