I am afraid that this is a truly virtuous monk. He does not rely on words to confuse others, but just returns the most ordinary actions and words to their original nature, which is enough to explain the teachings of Buddhism.
Of course, no matter which religion there are, there will be those cancer elements, but because the base of such people is very small, there is no need to say more.
From this point of view, it is quite similar to Taoism. These primitive religious teachings are all about me cultivating mine, you cultivating yours, and no one should disturb anyone else. Although I may not do many good deeds, I definitely don’t. Doing evil things breaks the precepts, as long as you practice self-control, that's enough.
The original Buddhist monk from Southeast Asia just bowed his head with a smile on his face and said: "... The young monk has been back in his hometown for a while, and he has learned a lot about the development of Buddhism in this world. He knows that the way taught by the Buddha has long been different. Explain, it is wrong for Mahayana Buddhism to save people, and it is wrong for Hinayana Buddhism to save oneself. There is no difference between Mahayana and Hinayana in the truth truly conveyed by Buddha. It’s just that people don’t understand the point, so they take the wrong path.”
“Let us be humble in spirit, says the Lord, and let us do as you think.”
Most of the religions that exist in this world are good to people. If you really practice the teachings to a high level and are a true believer, you must be a kind person. As for the cancer in religion, you cannot be called a believer at all. .
"Ha, you are here to help people. Aren't you monks all self-cultivation?"
The old man from Hua shook his head and said: "... Master, since you are here for the evil god, come with me. Little girl over there, since you are here because of this matter, then come with me and listen to me. Two sentences."
"The young monk has not yet attained the true status of Arhat. A monk is still a human being. As an individual, there will always be nostalgia for the past. Since Tan Yue can come back here, of course the young monk can too."
In modern people, there are always some people like angry youth who cry out to destroy the Buddha. They are all influenced by online novels. This group of people is extremely small, that is, they have such thoughts when they are young.
When the senior officials and reporters present heard what the great monk said, they all wanted to burst into tears. They felt that it would be great if the whole world could just practice Buddhism. Everyone should practice their own way, and no one should care about anyone else, and no one should bother anyone. , there is no need to argue for superiority, let alone any cultural disputes, how wonderful that everyone can be harmonious, and then there will be less troubles on the earth!
I just act according to the teachings of God or Buddha, so as to get closer to God, and in the end I will be with God. This is faith!
Anyway, when the senior Chinese officials and reporters present saw this old monk with extraordinary power, no one was afraid of him, just because he was an accomplished monk.
This is more like the true meaning of practice. There is no distinction between good and evil. It is neither good nor evil. It is not the kind that divides the world into good and evil. Good must be right and evil must be wrong. .
"Yes!"
Sister Milda lowered her head and said gently.
Just like so many people long for extraordinary powers, they actually want to learn these mysterious powers to make themselves different from others and be able to show themselves as saints in front of others.
When the old man from China heard what the monk said, he shook his head and said: "...I just said that I am neither a monk nor a Taoist priest. What I pursue is the ancient alchemy, I believe in the ancient ancestral righteousness, and I practice to sanctify the body. I don’t know much about the teachings you mentioned.”
He doesn't speak arrogant words or Zen language. He just speaks the most common words that everyone can understand. However, everyone can feel the true meaning of practice from him and feel the wisdom from the 'Buddha'. The truth.
In the airport, everyone saw this old monk who was skinny but gave off a kind-hearted look. Although everyone had different thoughts, on the whole they were very kind to him, even the pope and bishops from Western Christianity. , I don’t have much hatred towards this old monk.
Although Sister Milda is actually over eighty years old, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a little girl in front of this old man who is said to have lived for more than five hundred years.
In the past, because there was no divine supervision, all major religions acted for their own interests. Now with divine supervision, all religions have returned to their true nature.
Although there are some Mahayana thoughts in the original Buddhism, there is no theory that people can achieve merit by doing good deeds. Instead, they must learn the teachings, abide by the precepts, and meditate to achieve the truth of cessation and Taoism, and thus achieve the status of Arhat. .
But if you become a monk and learn primitive Buddhism, you won’t be able to show off even if you have extraordinary power. Therefore, the threshold for this Buddhism is actually quite high, and most people really can’t practice it.
The great monk nodded slightly.
The old man from Hua frowned and asked.
Of course I think so, but can it really be done? As long as you think about it deeply, you will find it difficult, because this is not in line with human nature, but is the true Buddha nature. Human beings always like to compare and are always full of desires. Those who can really let go of everything and not compare or compete, then Maybe it is really suitable to become a monk, but most people in this world simply cannot do this.
Although he is not as compassionate as a monk, he still exudes a strong atmosphere of friendliness.
If you were the villain monk in some novels, you might say that your path has gone astray at this time, and that you should be helped to become a Buddha, but this real monk who practices original Buddhist teachings nodded and said with a smile: "...As long as it can help people practice to reach the state of Nirvana, which is neither birth nor death, then it is the true Dharma."
"Ha, you old monk actually came back!"
"Are you also here for that evil god's aura?"
The great monk's expression remains unchanged, his accent is still so strange, and he still has a compassionate smile, which is different from the professional smile of a waiter. This monk seems to be able to attract people's thoughts and make them feel excited just by standing there. Be at peace with it.
Many elderly people in China believe in Buddhism, and many Chinese people like to go to temples to burn incense during festivals. The existence of Buddhism has its own reasons.
In fact, Buddhism is one of the few religions that will spontaneously give people the impression that the other party is a good person after they say they believe in Buddhism. For example, because of the dark things committed by Christianity in the Middle Ages, except for professional preachers such as priests, In addition to making people think that he is a gentle person, other people who believe in Christianity will not make people think that he is okay.
The Dharma taught in the initial stage of Buddhism is actually very similar to Taoism. The general meaning is that everyone in the world is suffering, and the world is suffering, and people must practice according to the Dharma taught by the Buddha to eliminate this kind of suffering and achieve the goal of no rebirth. The realm of annihilation focuses on the 'Eightfold Path'.
One sentence reflects the equality of all living beings, saying that Buddha is no different from other religions. No matter which religion you believe in or what method you learn, as long as the final result is to achieve 'Nirvana', then everyone is the same.
The old man's last words were addressed to the Catholic Sister Milda.
The old man from China laughed and cursed when he saw the monk. Looking at the way he laughed and cursed, he knew that the two had a good relationship and should have been friends for many years.
In ancient China, Buddhas were exterminated many times. This was because the ancient monks did not engage in production and did not pay taxes. Many farmers eventually became monks. Naturally, the only way for the country to continue to develop was to exterminate Buddhas.
The old man from China laughed dumbly.
