Chapter 65 The Buddha Invite
However, Uchiha Xuan was a little confused about the Buddha's actions. The Buddhist teachings in their Buddhism include Hinayana Buddhism and Mahayana Buddhism.
There was no distinction between such Buddhism before, but later, magic gradually developed and divided it into these two parts.
However, the Buddha put the Mahayana Buddhism on the shelf and asked the Buddhists to practice Hinayana Buddhism.
Why is this? Do Buddhists are unwilling to save all living beings?
This seems a bit inappropriate. After all, if a sect wants to survive, it naturally needs someone to support it. If there is no one in the sect, is it still the same sect?
Although there are methods to save people in Hinayana Buddhism, such a Buddhism can only save oneself and cannot save others.
The contradiction between the Peacock King and the Tathagata is the contradiction between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism.
Uchiha Gong also asked Dapeng, but Dapeng didn't know.
It seems that very few people know this reason, and even the Peacock King of Ming Dynasty may not know it.
On that day, Uchiha Xuan and the other three were playing, and Jin Chanzi found them.
"Others come to Lingshan to report to the Buddha and get the Buddha's blessing. If you know the great way, you will be happy and relaxed here all day." Jin Chanzi smiled and shook his head.
Uchiha Xuan said: "Don't Buddhism pay attention to making people reach the Pure Land? Arriving in the Pure Land means making people happy and happy, and not suffering from three disasters, six difficulties and seven sufferings. The three of us are quite happy now."
Jin Chanzi smiled and said, "Junior brother, don't be naughty. You and Junior Brother Wukong follow me. The Buddha just wants to see you."
Uchiha Gong and the monkey looked at each other and were both surprised.
Although they were the disciples of Subhuti, their status was not high. Why did the ancestors of Buddhism meet them alone?
At this time, Tathagata was sitting in the pavilion in the back garden. When he saw the two of them coming, he stood up to greet him with a smile.
The two bowed to the Buddha and sat down in front of the Buddha.
Tathagata stared at the two of them constantly, always smiling, and didn't know what he was looking at.
Uchiha Gong and Monkey didn't talk either.
"The two are the great disciples of the Subhuti Immortal, and they are indeed extraordinary." Tathagata finally spoke.
Uchiha Gong didn't say anything, but just looked at the Buddha. He had seen it in books before, and felt that the Buddha was extremely tall, tall and above, and kept people from thousands of miles away.
Now, as long as the Buddhist ancestor Tathagata sits in front of them, with a kind smile, like a kind elder talking to them.
Uchiha Gong was a little dazed for a moment.
The Buddha in front of you is the Tathagata himself, just like an ordinary person.
After the Buddha talked to them for a while, he said he would take them to the Buddha to see the river.
Uchiha Xuan thought that the Buddha was looking for them to ask about the Scorpion Scorpion. After all, they asked Dapeng to let the Scorpion Scorpion Scorpion go.
But I didn't expect that the Buddha would take them to the Buddha to see the river.
This is a river at the top of Lingshan Mountain. If Buddha power is injected into it, you can see the past.
Looking at the Buddha's river beneath your feet, you can clearly see your reflection and feel that everything about you will be reflected by the river, even if it is something you do secretly.
Uchiha Gong felt a little bit like he wanted to retreat for a moment. He felt that everything about him was revealed without any secrets.
In fact, this is just a feeling in his heart.
Tathagata was by the river, and with a light wave of his hand, they saw the picture.
Things in the river water were the Buddha's previous life.
From the birth of the Buddha, then to enlighten the Tao, then practice the Buddha, step by step, experiencing countless hardships and hardships, and facing countless deaths.
But the Buddha persisted, and he had no fear or desire to retreat, even if he had a single thought.
His obsession with Buddhism is admirable.
Uchiha Xuan couldn't help but look at the Tathagata beside him. He really didn't expect that it would be so difficult for Tathagata to become a Buddha.
Everyone knows how glorious the Buddha of Tathagata is, and controls the entire Buddhism and is deeply admired by thousands of people, but they don’t know how difficult he experienced before reaching this position. It can be said that no one can bear it.
The monkey couldn't help but glance at the Tathagata next to him. It was even more difficult than reaching the Three Star Cave in ten years. No wonder Tathagata was able to become the ancestor of Buddhism.
The Buddha looked at his past, his face calmly.
"You two want to see this, because you want to tell you that everything is not that easy, and you have to endure suffering if you want to go."
Tathagata turned around and followed the path next to him and walked down the mountain.
Monkey and Uchiha Kung followed behind.
Uchiha Xuan said: "Buddha, I have a question, why does Buddhism not practice Mahayana Buddhism but Hinayana Buddhism?"
Tathagata stopped, turned around and looked at Uchiha Xuan, and said, "If you want to save others, you will first save yourself. If you can't save yourself, how can you save others?"
Although it makes sense, Uchiha Gen thinks this is not the real reason.
"But now many people in Buddhism have achieved the goal of saving themselves. Why not let them practice Mahayana Buddhism?"
Tathagata said, "Because the time has not come."
What can Uchiha Xuan say about Tathagata’s answer?
After walking for a while, Tathagata looked at Uchiha Kura again: "You have been following Subhuti for a while. I believe you know who the master's way of heaven is in now, and who knows the trajectory of the chaos is consistent with."
Uchiha Gong nodded.
"Since you know, do you still need to ask me why I don't let the Buddhist Mahayana Buddhism?"
Uchiha Gong was slightly stunned. He understood the Buddha's meaning.
By practicing Mahayana Buddhism, the Buddhists will inevitably come out of the mountain to save the world. If they do this, it will cause disgust from the Taoist sect and resistance from the Taoist sect.
"When that time, the three realms will become more chaotic as it is now. It may be the dispute between Buddhism and Taoism." Tathagata said.
Uchiha Gong understands.
But I don’t know why, but the Buddha had already explained it very clearly, but Uchiha Gong felt a little confused again.
He felt that there must be other important reasons for the Buddha to do this, but he didn't know now, and the Buddha wouldn't tell him.
Suddenly, a giant python rushed out of the jungle next to it and pounced towards the monkey on the tree.
The branch where the monkey stood was suddenly broken, and he was falling down.
He was only one or two meters away from the ground, and nothing happened when he fell down.
But the Buddha on the side stretched out his right hand and took the monkey down.
Although the monkey is much larger than the Buddha's right hand, it makes Uchiha Kuang feel that the Buddha's hand can accommodate the monkey and prevents the monkey from leaving it.
