Chapter 235: Punish evil and promote good (monthly ticket)
I saw that the pilgrims were all very interested. The envoys of Xiliang Kingdom seemed to have a strong interest in Chen Kaizhi and also came behind Chen Kaizhi.
Inspector Li was smiling, his eyes were smiling but he wanted to make up for fun.
In fact, most of the pilgrims here are worshipping Buddhas, otherwise they would not have come here specifically today. Will they really lack a good vegetarian meal as their identities?
Therefore, they all wanted to know what Buddhist principles this Juren Chen would draw.
Although there were many people around him, Chen Kaizhi was always very attentive to do things. He picked up his pen and dipped it ink, and then he thought for a moment, and then began to write.
In an instant, the pen was like a dragon and a snake. These days, Chen Kaizhi has copied a lot of calligraphy, and he also had experience in practicing calligraphy in his previous life. Although this running script is not as high as a famous artist, it is still very good.
The envoys of Xiliang Country only smiled at first, but when Chen Kaizhi wrote the first sentence, he instantly showed surprise on his face.
At this time, Chen Kaizhi had already started writing the second sentence.
Zen Master Fahai just stood aside silently, thinking about this time, he fooled the juren Chen so that his temple would be more incense.
But when he saw the second sentence Chen Kaizhi wrote, his face suddenly changed.
Damn...
If you have to find a description to express Master Fahai’s mood at this time, it would be like a thorn in his throat, which was so blocked that he couldn’t speak.
This guy Chen Kaizhi... is definitely here to ruin the situation.
The envoy of Xiliang was already excited to read Chen Kaizhi's inscription: "It is useless to burn incense when doing evil things, but it is not bad to see the Buddha with an upright heart."
Fahai even widened his eyes and was speechless for a moment.
Isn't this a naked sign smash...
It is useless to do evil and burn incense. What does this mean? Isn’t this equivalent to the previous life? Smoking is harmful to health? As for being upright and not worshiping Buddha, it’s not to tell the pilgrims all over the world. If you have anything to do, come to the temple to burn incense and donate eggs. Instead of coming here to worship every day and adding money for incense, it’s better to stay at home and do something good.
It is conceivable that if this inscription is hung outside, who will come to worship after eating?
This is obviously because I have eaten rice from Baima Temple and I want to smash the pot from Baima Temple.
Zen Master Fahai was furious. The pit was a little big. He finally found his voice and couldn't help but say, "Jun Chen, what does this... mean?"
Chen Kaizhi naturally saw the anger that Zen Master Fahai was solemn tolerate, but he looked calm and said lightly: "Inscription."
Zen Master Fahai violated the precept of anger, but he didn't care about this much and asked: "Where is there any Buddhist principle in this word?"
Yes, you must not hang this word out, you have to cheat, but White Horse Temple cannot ignore credit, so you must find out Chen Kaizhi's loopholes.
Chen Kaizhi's eyes suddenly opened, and suddenly changed his gentleness and said seriously: "The Buddha is in his heart, but this word is the most Buddhist. The Zen master always said, "I am merciful, why is my Buddha merciful? Because I am all sentient beings and encourage people to be kind. The so-called "A Buddha" is a Buddha, as long as I am a good person, he is a Buddha. Students want to ask questions. If a villain is a villain, loses his conscience and does all the bad things, if he just worships the Buddha, will the Buddha bless him?"
Fahai was speechless for a moment.
At this time, Chen Kaizhi said again: "If there are good people, just because they refuse to come here to worship Buddha and give incense and oil money, would the Buddha have sent him to Avici Hell?"
Fahai was angry and anxious, but found that he had no power to turn his back.
Of course he dared not say this. If he said this, it would be a criticism of the Buddha.
Chen Kaizhi's lips curled up slightly and said seriously: "That's right, so my Buddha has a compassionate heart, treats sentient beings equal, and the good and bad fortune of people all come from his usual words and deeds. If a good person has a Buddha in his heart, why should he travel long distances to see a bronze statue here? But if a person with a traitor and evil person does not repent, he will come here, and he will probably defile this quiet place of Buddhism. This... is the true Buddhist principle. Students are absurd and have read a few Buddhist books. They have always known that blessings are accumulated in daily life, so they have gained insights."
When it comes to debate, Fahai, who usually only knows how to recite scriptures, does Chen Kai have the ability to do with half of Chen Kai's skills? What's more, Chen Kai's two lives are standing on the shoulders of giants. To be honest, it is not a problem to beat him in a variety of styles.
But Chen Kaizhi knew that debate alone would not convince people.
Because no matter how powerful a debater is, he cannot convince your opponent. Because the other party is in a different position from you, sitting on his White Horse Temple, even if Chen Kaizhi says a flower, it is useless.
If you want to truly give Zen Master Fahai the killer weapon, you must convince the pilgrims here.
These pilgrims were specially sent to come here by Baima Temple. They were all nobles in Luoyang City. Chen Kaizhi knew very well that only by pulling them to his side could he truly give Zen Master Fahai a killing blow.
However, when these pilgrims saw that both sides were at odds, they felt that Chen Kaizhi's inscription contained many Buddhist principles, which made people feel that the artistic conception was very distant when they saw it. However, after all, they were still in love with Fahai, but they didn't say anything and wanted to watch it on the wall.
Chen Kaizhi had to sigh that the Buddhist temple is also filled with human nature everywhere. In human nature, there is always a human and worldly side.
However, Chen Kaizhi wanted to tear this human relationship and trample on the ground.
So he still smiled and said, "Just like all the lay Buddhists here today."
His eyes glanced at everyone, with great confidence: "If they have good thoughts in their hearts, there will be Buddha in their hearts. Buddha exists in their hearts. Even if they don't come to this White Horse Temple, this blessing will be planted. Sooner or later, there will be blessings. Do you think?"
This is a question that is almost impossible to choose.
Look, if you disagree, is it because you have a ghost in your heart and you have no blessings in your heart. But as written in this inscription, are you the one who is a traitor who wants to burn incense? Because you have a ghost in your heart, you dare not admit it?
No one would admit that he was a villain, let alone these people, who had some awe of Buddha, believed that there was Avici Hell in this world.
Therefore, the envoy of Xiliang nodded first and said, "Yes, Xiliang is called the Buddha's country. The king and the ministers all regard worshiping Buddha as a major event, but the essence of worshiping Buddha is to be good, and the mind is to have good thoughts, which is the essence."
The others nodded at this time, and said, "That's right, that's the truth."
"Ju Ren Chen really revealed the origin in one sentence, and his heart is in his heart."
I originally thought that Fahai was not afraid of Chen Kaizhi, but when I saw these pilgrims speak and stand on Chen Kaizhi's side, this was a blow to Fahai.
Zen Master Fahai suddenly became dizzy, like a bolt from the blue, making his face turn pale.
This pit is deep enough...
He tried hard to calm down and gritted his teeth and said, "If there were no pilgrims, how could the temple survive? Who will offer to the Buddhas?"
Chen Kaizhi stared at Zen Master Fahai and said, "Why do all Buddhas need Zen Masters to worship? All Buddhas are ever-changing and supreme. Is it because of worshipping that the Buddhas protect the world? The Zen Master was wrong. The Buddhas do not need to worship. Those who need to worship are not Buddhas, but Zen Masters. There are millions of buildings in Baima Temple and tens of thousands of fertile fields. Isn't these enough to worship Zen Masters? When I entered the mountain gate, I saw some of the pilgrims outside in ragged clothes and unkempt faces, but hungry, taking out money.
, Could it be that this is the original intention of the Buddha? When I entered the mountain gate, I saw the monks at the Baima Temple, all of them were red and covered with clothes. The bricks and stones here were meticulously carved. The tea and water used were all the best. The vegetarian dishes they ate were exquisite and the materials were selected. All the flowers and treasures were condensed here to make delicious delicacies just to satisfy the desire for words. These were all the people's fat and ointment. The Buddha was offering to the Buddha, and they were just a few wisps of smoke. This... was what the Buddha expected?"
Zen Master Fahai couldn't help but tremble. Unexpectedly, Chen Kaizhi would...
He was a little panicked, only to feel his heart was so palpitations that he couldn't help but point at Chen Kaizhi, and was furious, and said without hesitation: "You...you will go to Avici Hell."
Chen Kaizhi was originally disdainful of Fahai's false benevolence and righteousness, and all his anger burst out. But when he heard Fahai say this, Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Even if I drink and meat penetrate my intestines and the beauty is in my arms, I have never done anything to harm people. The Buddha is in my heart, so why are you afraid of hell?"
At this time, everyone could see that Zen Master Fahai had lost his composure at this moment. As soon as Chen Kaizhi said this, he fell into a dead silence.
Some people want to be a peacemaker, but hesitate to go forward.
Zen Master Fahai stared at Chen Kaizhi and said angrily: "You...you don't know what you mean."
Chen Kaizhi smiled and said, "Zen Master, let me remind you that you have violated the precept of anger."
Zen Master Fahai covered his heart and said sternly: "You have bad intentions and slander me Buddha."
Chen Kaizhi shook his head and said, "Zen Master, don't lie."
Zen Master Fahai became more angry and shouted loudly: "Everyone who disturbs the purity of Buddhism like you will be punished."
Chen Kaizhi sighed: "This is a killing act."
"It seems..." Chen Kaizhi stared at him: "The Zen master is not a real Buddhist, but just a man who deceives the world and steals his reputation by using the Buddha's signature."
puff……
The angry Zen Master Fahai wanted to continue to refute, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, and the red blood spilled like a bunch of flowers, and the smell of blood suddenly spread.
Chen Kaizhi was not polite at this time and said aggressively: "Look, the Buddha opened his eyes. He really wanted to punish evil and promote good!"
Zen Master Fahai was so angry that he vomited blood. He didn't know that Chen Kai was so despicable that he actually used this as a matter of making a fuss. It seemed that the Buddha really showed his spirit and punished him.
