To the city , a Qin Mu early morning arrives at the temple of Buddhism to city, knocked the gate to hand over Bai Tie, said: „I see Grandfather Ma.”
Receives his Buddhist priest to go back to report hastily.
Reason that Qin Mu mentioned sees Grandfather Ma, but was not Rulai Ma, was because Rulai Ma was the Way of Buddha guide, must assume Great Thunderclap Monastery, publicized Dharma, but Grandfather Ma was his family member.
One is the status, another is the kinship.
Sees Rulai Ma, must puts out Human Sovereign and Heavenly Saint Cult Master status, sees Grandfather Ma, the child's status of then by Grandfather Ma raising.
Passed the moment, receives and instructs the monk to come, said: „Grandfather Ma is invited.”
Qin Mu shows the smiling face, follows him to enter the temple, this temple was the Tai Heaven God demon gives out the Great Thunderclap Monastery place, the Great Thunderclap Monastery Buddhist priests has constructed the temple here, daily cultivation.
Qin Mu looks up, can see dim two ten Heavens hang in the sky of temple, many Buddhist priests under two ten Heavens, chanted sutras unceasingly, the sutra chanting from the sky collided, changes to Buddha's radiance, emerged two ten Heavens.
Two ten Heavens are Buddhism Heavens, floats two ten Heavens sky over temple is the projection of true Heavens, is not real.
Qin Mu takes back the vision, this is, he noticed that has taken off Rulai plain elderly of law robe, visits him with a smile.
Grandfather Ma.
Qin Mu is excited, since Grandfather Ma becomes Great Thunderclap Monastery Rulai Ma, the time that they meet has been then less, Rulai Ma takes off the Rulai law robe, then sees him as family member, how could isn't he excited?
However here after all is the Great Thunderclap Monastery Buddhist temple, everywhere is the Buddhist priest, he must suppresses the kinship in oneself innermost feelings rushing, cannot bring troublesome to Grandfather Ma, brings the difficulty on state of mind.
„Grandfather Ma, weren't you early then contacted to two ten Heavens very much?”
Qin Mu stands firm the state of mind, said curiously: „Why can also contact with two ten Heavens now unceasingly? various hasn't Buddha of Buddha, taught a higher level the merit and law?”
„Passed on. However passes on are not many.”
Grandfather Ma gets him to arrive at these to chant sutras and by the Buddhist priest of Buddha contact, sees only this temple to be quite spacious, about thousand Buddhist priests sit crosslegged to sit, some sit on the flat land, some sit in airborne, but also some sit in the pagoda, said: „The meaning of Buddha is, wants us to cultivate Buddha with single-hearted devotion, does not need to participate in the dispute of common custom bustling place. They too do not want to pay attention to the common custom the matter, as if has many taboos. But my meaning, is asks them to teach the profound method, Buddha has to cross the heart of world, how could to see with own eyes that the common custom person does fall into the misery not to rescue?”
Qin Mu looks, a lot of Buddhist priests have the male to have the female, some people have the monster, was reciting Buddha, making two ten Heavens various Buddha not probably be peaceful.
This fighting method, the reversed image is the method of harassment. The name of praying to Buddha, Buddha will hear, various Buddha given name that these Great Thunderclap Monastery Buddhist priests read.
„Several Buddha passed on the law to get down, afterward then nobody again passed on, makes every effort to keep secret. I want to invite their world of mortals, they are not willing the world of mortals to assist.”
Grandfather Ma shakes the head saying: „I think, they did not fear messes with this world earthliness, but fears certain fearful existences. Although they have profound Realm, profound cultivation technique, however fell the low grade in the state of mind. Days before, various Buddha it of Buddha harassed extremely, therefore some proposition, must compete with Dharma between bodhisattvas.”
„Competes with Dharma?”
Qin Mu came the interest immediately, said with a smile: „How ratio?”
„Chooses the disciple of Buddha, compared with the Dharma attainments height, this comparison, separates the spatial comparison. What I send is Zhan Kong.”
Grandfather Ma lifts hand one finger/refers, said: „Zhan Kong there, has defeated several two ten Heavens bodhisattvas.”
Qin Mu looks up, sees only Devil Ape Zhan Kong to sit in the tower, that tower as if with two ten Heavens with high, but in his opposite, is sitting well a bodhisattva, the body rides the valuable shape, the valuable shape dresses up the string of pearls, is quite magnificent.
The treasure likely rear area is the magnificent temple community, after big various Buddha brain , the halo revolves, law dignified.
Their debate Buddhist teaching is quite intense, two ten Heavens that bodhisattva is eloquent, incessant, the words said half double-hour has not stopped, the sound is resounding from time to time spiritedly, from time to time is low and deep makes the person unable to bear listen carefully.
This convincing argument is the lengthy speech, making people indisputable.
That bodhisattva said, finally stopped the mouth not saying that the happy expression, looked wear a look to Devil Ape.
Devil Ape stretches out the furry palm, five black thick fingers, the sound is obscure, every single word or phrase said: „Extremely.”
That bodhisattva does not understand that he wants to say anything, the thinking, passed the moment with hardship, Devil Ape also said: „Spatial.”
That bodhisattva knits the brows, immediately recollections in close succession. Devil Ape also said: „Has.”
That bodhisattva body slightly shakes, loses the sound said: „Why emptied also had?”
Devil Ape turns a deaf ear, said: „Static.”
That bodhisattva is angry, shouts: „Since there are, why can also be static? Your words do not gather Dharma!”
Devil Ape said: „.”
That bodhisattva is in an uncontrollable rage, overall will dispute, suddenly the body big quake, in valuable alike carrying on the back, is dumb as a wooden chicken stiffly, does not say a word.
His, a big buddha sighed: „Has extremely spatially calmly. High was too too wonderful, character like the pearl, each character is theory of the Dharma Mahayana, five characters are linked to each other, is greatest profound. Empties, you said half double-hour, said many lengthy speeches, what a pity are also inferior to any characters in his these five characters. You have defeated, gets down.”
That bodhisattva empties on to set out from treasure likely, salutes upon meeting to Devil Ape, draws back slowly.
Qin Mu is startled and startles, said to Grandfather Ma: „Grandfather Ma, does Big fella have the organ of wisdom really?”
Grandfather Ma said with deep veneration: „Has the organ of wisdom greatly! Even above me, is higher than Ming Xin!”
At this time, two ten Heavens came a bodhisattva, came from previous Heavens, with several physical body general Buddha, just took a seat, this bodhisattva then whole body blossomed in radiant splendor, rays of light was dazzling, shone from two ten Heavens, the photo spread in the temple the people.
This Buddha's radiance shines, lets the group monks in temple is in the heart one startled: „This bodhisattva good profound Dharma cultivation base!”
Devil Ape lifts the hand, keeps off at present, the big hand blocked Buddha's radiance, the shadow of hand has thrown on the face.
The bodhisattva that just took a seat just must speak debate Buddhist teaching, sees this situation, in the heart in great surprise, suddenly the throat one sweet, a blood spouts, loses the sound said: „Are your Dharma attainments so unexpectedly high? I had not said with enough time, was debated upside-down by you!” Then, face up then but actually, air/Qi, if gossamer.
His, that several big buddhas save others hastily, finally rescues him. A Buddha said: „Shines the bodhisattva this time to want the debate Buddhist teaching content is what Weiming. Has not thought that this small bodhisattva actually directly broke his topic, if is really eloquent! Admire, admire!”
Qin Mu stares dumbfounded, difficult takes back the vision from Devil Ape, the doubts looks at Grandfather Ma.
This debate Buddhist teaching, he could not understand.
Grandfather Ma explained: „Shines the bodhisattva to clearly to come the topic, the whole body to blossom in radiant splendor, Buddha's radiance shines. But Zhan Kong lifts the hand to keep off, what hand/subordinate is darkness, then tells him, has the light then to have darkness, mutually is the interdependence. Therefore shines debate Buddhist teaching of bodhisattva then directly to be interrupted, cavity words could not say, suppressed oneself spits blood. Thus it can be seen Zhan Kong organ of wisdom.”
Qin Mu could not speak.
He can look, that shone cultivation base of bodhisattva to be extremely high a moment ago, mostly is Celestial Being Realm Dharma expert, even if Qin Mu faces the confrontation with him, is not necessarily able to exceed him.
Has not thought, Devil Ape has closely obstructed a lower light, shines the bodhisattva then to spit blood, almost passed away!
Devil Ape debated two ten Heavens big Karmic Virtue days, next Heavens is the big eloquence day.
In the big eloquence day, various Buddha comes with a young bodhisattva, with Devil Ape relative. That young bodhisattva takes a seat slowly, the words are not many, the hand pinches law seal, is pinching a lotus flower, said: „Does not have.”
Devil Ape said: „Has.”
That year the light bodhisattva knit the brows, puts down lotus flower, said: „Has.”
Devil Ape said: „Does not have.”
That year the light bodhisattva set out, drinks to ask: „Are you ordinary people?”
Devil Ape shakes the head: „I, Saint.”
That year the light bodhisattva sent enlightening the benighted to ask, shouted: „Are you Saint Buddha?”
Devil Ape shakes the head once again: „I.”
That year light bodhisattva complexion became flushed, gets angry: „In sometimes my hand you said do not have, when my hand does not have you said, I asked you is a mortal, you said that you are Saint Buddha, I asked that you are Saint Buddha? You also said that you is a mortal! What do you actually want to say?”
His behind various Buddha knit the brows, calls several diamond to fork him, a Buddha apologized to Devil Ape: „Junior Brother forgives, he already chaotic conscience. Sometimes not does has does not have, when the heart works as the Saint Saint . The Junior Brother Dharma attainments, I and others admired.” Note ( 1 )
Devil Ape returns salute, did not speak.
Qin Mu with amazement, rises muddleheadedly, supports the forehead to say to Grandfather Ma: „Grandfather Ma, I could not understand completely. I do not have this organ of wisdom, did not listen.”
Grandfather Ma said with a smile: „When I like Zhan Kong is so big, never has the attainments. Since you hear blurry, then we leave the temple to walk.”
Qin Mu feels relieved.
They go out of the temple, Grandfather Ma breathed a sigh of relief, say with a smile: „Mu'er, I at the present am Buddha, walked even more far with you. Puts on the cassock, sits Buddha position, I was not past Grandfather Ma, in my eyes, you were all living things. However I walk from the Buddha position, takes off that clothes, I then am our Disabled Elderly Village's Grandfather Ma, horse Shenbu, you are the child who that I see to grow up.”
Qin Mu layer on layer/heavily grasps him suddenly.
Grandfather Ma startled, has patted his back with a smile, said: „Zhan Kong studies quickly, Ming Xin is also the good child, in the future will inherit the Great Thunderclap Monastery mantle will then be they. By that time, I then am not Rulai, I will return to Disabled Elderly Village, I can also be merry with you together, drink wine to eat the meat.”
Qin Mu inquired: „Why two ten Heavens various Buddha is not willing to pass on the law, isn't willing the world of mortals to assist? Does Grandfather Ma have the inquiry reason?”
„Has asked. A Buddha told me, reason that Great Thunderclap Monastery can preserve in all previous disaster tribulation, was because did not ask, asked that is unable to preserve. They make me do not ask.”
Grandfather Ma sighed, said: „What this using is Mute teaches my cloudy move, Mute tells me, making me assign various monk to read aloud Buddha, quarrelled they to be pure, quarrels they unable to bear, they can speak with you. If this time debate Buddhist teaching can triumph, two ten Heavens various Fobian permits three quotas, enter Buddha to study. However, they will not make people world of mortals help one another as before. I have pondered, three quotas are also good, always feels better not to have.”
In this time, in the temple is transmitting in an uproar suddenly, various monk the cheers transmits, Qin Mu and Grandfather Ma look at each other one, turns head to break in the temple hurriedly, sees only the monks to throw high Devil Ape, catches, throws again!
„Won, we won!” The monks cheer.
