Le Tian's face turned red and he said, "I am not a pure Taoist priest. I became a monk halfway and I don't understand some things. I asked someone a while ago and found out that Sanqing disciples usually sing "Supreme Heavenly Lord" or "Supreme Heavenly Lord" or "Supreme Heavenly Lord" when giving gifts. "Supreme Taiyi Tianzun", if a believer encounters misfortune, they will sing "Supreme Taiyi Tianzun to save the suffering", "Supreme Taiyi Tianzun to save suffering", that is, Taiyi Tianzun who calls for Taoism's great benevolence and compassion. This It is similar to the Guanyin Bodhisattva in your Buddhism. I hope that Taiyi Tianzun will appear to help the unfortunate people and save them from suffering. This kind of singing ceremony has been used for many years.
In the early 1980s, when a storytelling artist was telling stories, the Taoist characters in the book would always use "Infinite Buddha" as their catchphrase. Later, at a political conference, the storytelling artist happened to be in the same group as a Buddhist master, so the master made a suggestion to the artist: Taoists do not call Buddha, so "Infinite Buddha" is not suitable for use as a verbal title for Taoists. For the purpose of storytelling, the artist asked the master to help him think of a four-character term similar to the Buddhist "Amitabha". The master is helpless. He is a member of the Buddhist sect. How can he give a title to a member of the Taoist sect? But then I thought about it, this storytelling is a worldly art and has nothing to do with Taoism itself, so I told him that "Taoism respects gods and calls them gods." The commentators understood the story by analogy, and thus the "Infinite Heavenly Lord" came into being.
In the 1990s, some high-prestige Taoist priests passed away one after another, and they caught up with the new social trend. The new Taoist priests also followed the social trend, so some people began to use Wuliang Tianzun, and gradually spread, and everyone said that Wuliang Tianzun was the most popular name. Fashionable, among Taoists: this is what the party is called. Later, it became everyone's default title. Later, this title was brought to the south...
Some people, like me before, don’t know the reasons at all and just shout along. Now that I understand, I will naturally not use it again.
We Taoists often use "Tai Shang", "Supreme" and "Supreme" to express the supremacy of Tao.
Wuliangguan is a blessing term, the highest blessing... Well, to put it simply, I think others say Wuliangtianzun. Let me say Wuliangguan, which has more connotation... In fashionable words, it is more powerful. . "Ren Lotte said with a smile.
Fang Zheng was immediately speechless. This guy really had a pure heart and a childlike manner. He would say whatever came to his mind.
The two of them were talking and had arrived in front of the optimistic Taoist temple.
The so-called Taoist temples are nothing more than three adobe thatched cottages. There is a sign of Lotte Anguan hanging at the door. The handwriting is vigorous and powerful, which shows that the person who wrote it has a strong pen, a magnanimous heart, and an awe-inspiring righteousness.
After entering the courtyard, there was a sign hanging on the adobe house that read: "Sanqing Hall."
There is a house on the left and right sides, and there is a plaque on it. On the left it says "Falling Leaves Know Autumn" and on the right it says "Bi Wolongtan". There are flowers, plants and trees planted at the entrance. Although the entire Taoist temple is just a few thatched houses with fences, the overall layout reveals the charm of the Tao, making people feel very comfortable after entering it.
In this regard, Fang Zheng had to admire Mr. Optimus. This ability, Fang Zheng asked himself, would never have been able to do it without the help of the system! This kind of arrangement that seems random but coincides with the principles of heaven and earth is difficult to achieve. It can be seen that Mr. Lotte is not a fake Taoist priest, at least in terms of natural perception, he is very good.
But now Fang Zheng has gained a lot of insights into the concepts of Buddhist scriptures and can do it. He wondered whether he should decorate the top of Yizhi Mountain properly after he returned.
Fang Zheng and his disciples followed Letian into the Taoist temple.
Fan Qing fed the old man some water, and the old man slowly regained consciousness.
Fan Qing immediately told what had just happened, especially expressing his dissatisfaction with the situation in front of him and the other party's attitude.
The old man shook his head and said: "Fan Qing, what do you think others should do to you?"
"At least..." At this point, Fan Qing was stunned and didn't know what to say.
"You are not related to me, so you saved me and gave us a temporary place to stay. This is already a great favor. At home, your parents can pamper you, pamper you, and take care of you. At school, teachers can I can take care of you and pamper you. In the workshop, I can pamper you and pamper you, but outside, why should outsiders pamper you and pamper you? No one has the obligation to pamper anyone who is not a relative or friend... Unless..." The old man said this.
"Unless what?" Fan Qing asked.
"Unless you have a motive, you should be wary of those who are trying to please you for nothing. And they are the true gentlemen." The old man said.
"Master, it seems that your poison has not been cured yet." Fan Qing said.
The old man chuckled and said: "I should have died a long time ago. If I can live a little longer, I will earn it. Why do you want so much? Fan Qing, sit down and I will test your basic skills."
When Fan Qing heard this, he immediately grimaced and sat down to wait for the assessment.
In the room, Fang Zheng and Le Tian Ren were seated as guests and hosts respectively. On Le Tian Ren's table was a black tea set. On the dark tea set, it looked plain on the outside, but inside there was a white lotus flower blooming at the bottom. I don't know what it was. What is made of it is very delicate. Lotte Tian smiled and said: "This is passed down from Pindao's grandfather. It is said to be hundreds of years old. This is a good thing. It is an authentic purple clay pot. The lotus inside is made of jade. Today, a distinguished guest is here. Pindao is fine. Take out what you can get, abbot, don’t be dissatisfied.”
Red Boy sat on the side with his feet propped up, with a look of disgust on his face! I muttered in my heart: "It's not gold or silver, how dare you show it off?"
The monkey stood behind Fang Zheng, with curiosity in his eyes, but tried hard to keep himself still, looking like an old monk in meditation.
The lone wolf glanced at the small cup, shook his big head, and muttered in his heart: "You are so stingy. What can you drink from such a cup? You are so stingy when it comes to drinking water..."
Among all the people, the squirrel was the happiest. It was the first time I saw such a considerate cup. I was so happy!
Fang Zheng doesn’t understand tea or tea sets, but he instinctively feels that this set of tea sets is extraordinary.
Fang Zheng smiled and said, "To be honest, the poor monk's temple really can't afford such a luxurious tea set. I am lucky to be able to use such a tea set."
Lotte Tian rolled his eyes and said: "Pull it down, you can't see that Sansheng is lucky at all, are you simply indifferent? That's the only thing you monks are not good at, you are calm about everything. If you really want to see through the world of mortals, you will be indifferent to everything. If you lose interest, what’s the point of living?”
Fang Zheng laughed helplessly and did not argue with Lotte. Because he was really surprised by this tea set, but his eyes were always so clear. Who could blame him
Lotte Tianren said: "Master, wait a moment, I will go pick some tea leaves."
"There are tea leaves in the mountains?" Fang Zheng was stunned. He looked through the window and saw Lotte Tian entering a corner of the yard and carefully picking something, but he couldn't see clearly what it was.
