What are supernatural powers?
Faced with Xuanzang's question, many people were looking in both directions and whispering to see if anyone knew about it and could help solve the problem. But except for those who practice Buddhism, ordinary people don’t know.
Xiao Rui smiled, "Are you referring to the six magical powers of Buddhism?"
Xuanzang was surprised and said: "You also know the six supernatural powers? Is it possible that the Marquis is also a Buddhist?"
Xiao Rui waved his hand: "I don't practice Buddhism. I just have some understanding."
All the people watching fell silent, waiting in silence for Xiao Rui to reveal the secret.
Xiao Rui said loudly: "The six magical powers of Buddhism are: (1) Heavenly Eyes, which can see the life, death, pain and joy of living beings in the three realms and six paths, and all shapes and colors in the world, without any obstacles. (2) Heavenly Ears, which can There is no obstacle to hearing the words of pain, joy, sorrow, and joy of sentient beings in the three realms and six realms, and hearing all the sounds in the world. (3) His mind is clear, and he can know what is thinking in the hearts of all sentient beings in the three realms and six realms. (4) Fate pass, and he is also the master of fate. Living Tong can know the fate of oneself and all sentient beings in the Three Realms and Six Paths and what they have done. (5) Divine Foot Tong, also known as Body Tong, Body-Wish Tong, and Divine Realm Tong. That is, the ability to be free and unencumbered, and to appear as one pleases. . (6) The outflow of leakage can cut off all the confusion of seeing and thinking in the three realms. It is not immune to life and death in the three realms, and can gain the power of the outflow of draining magical power."
Hiss...so powerful? It turns out that this is magical power. Hey, isn't it God's magic that can cause wind and rain?
Some people were dizzy after hearing it. They only knew that it sounded powerful, but they didn't understand a word.
Many elders of Daxingshan Temple understood that Xiao Rui was fully prepared. The host whispered to the abbot: "Brother abbot, haven't you achieved destiny knowledge? Maybe you can see what will happen to Xiao Rui in the future?"
The old abbot shook his head and sighed: "No. This person's future is blurry, and it seems that it is obscured by clouds and fog and cannot be clearly determined. Odd, odd!"
Xiao Rui could hear the whispers of a group of old monks. He slightly curved his mouth and asked Xuanzang a rhetorical question: "Little monk, did you become a Buddha to obtain these magical powers?"
Xuanzang nodded heavily, "Yes, if you can cultivate one of the magical powers, you will be able to achieve the supreme fruition. Only then can you be considered successful in Buddhism."
Xiao Rui burst out laughing, "Little monk, if you master these magical powers in the future, what will happen next? What will you use them for?"
Xuanzang blurted out, "Of course it is to save all sentient beings and help the world."
Xiao Rui retorted: "I don't think so. To save all sentient beings and help the world, you just need to have a heart. You don't need to be so talented. You go all the way and when you meet others who need help, you can just reach out and lend a helping hand."
Xuanzang retorted: "But with magical powers, I can help more people."
Xiao Rui shook his head, "But you may not be able to cultivate supernatural powers. If you can't cultivate it in your life, wouldn't you have done nothing good?"
"No, I will definitely be able to accomplish it." Xuanzang was like a young boy who was just starting out and wouldn't give in.
"Okay, wait until your beard turns white to complete the cultivation, and you will die of old age without doing a few good deeds. It is better for you to go out and do good deeds from now on, and you will accumulate countless merits throughout your life." Xiao Rui waved his hand, not bothering to argue with him.
But this kind of answer and perfunctory made Xuanzang even more hurt. He felt like he had been hit by an arrow in the knee and had been hit?
Seeing Xuanzang's depressed and flushed face, Xiao Rui changed his words and said, "Okay, okay, even if you master the six magical powers of Buddhism tomorrow, I don't think you will do good deeds."
Xuanzang was dissatisfied and said: "Master Hou, Xuanzang is devoted to the Buddha and vows to save the world in this life. He will never do evil. You can't guess the little monk with a villain's heart."
"What if? Now you are talking freely when you have not obtained magical powers, but after you have obtained magical powers, are you still you? At that time, you may not have forgotten your original intention. Human hearts are the easiest to change. Could it be that, Once you have mastered the Six Paths of Buddhism, you will be freed from the Three Realms and Six Paths, and you will no longer be a human being, but an immortal god?"
Xuanzang said coldly: "Of course, the little monk is still a human being, and those who have developed supernatural powers are only mortals with great supernatural powers. But if I, the Buddha, teach the Dharma and practice without a heart of great compassion, I will not be able to develop supernatural powers."
That’s not necessarily the case! There is no shortage of talented people in the world.
Xiao Rui randomly pointed out a person in the crowd, "Hey, brother, do you want to have the six magical powers of Buddhism?"
The man was also very carefree, and he immediately raised his hand and shouted: "I think, let alone the six magical powers, I would be satisfied with just one."
Xiao Rui then asked: "If there is one kind, which one do you most want to have?"
The man thought for a moment and asked the person next to him: "Hey, I was just watching the excitement. What kind of things are there?"
...Everyone burst into laughter.
Someone next to him who was anxious for him quickly shouted: "You fool, of course you need that kind of telescope, you can hear many little secrets."
The people next to me quickly objected: "No, no, you should have clairvoyance, so you can peek at the Widow Wang next door taking a bath..."
What? You actually want to peek at the widow taking a bath? How bad!
"I'm not, I didn't...I mean what if..." The man was so frightened that he got into the crowd and squeezed out.
Chang'an County Magistrate and Wannian County Magistrate looked at each other and said, "Hey, is this person under your rule or mine? Send someone to check."
At this time, the person who was originally asked the question also understood what the six Buddhist powers were, raised his hands and shouted: "I want the divine foot power. You can go to the Widow Wang anytime you want."
Phew... Everyone was shocked. Where was that guy just now? Listen, what did all the eavesdropping and peeping just now count? Listening to what this person said, it seems that he has already succeeded.
Wannian County Magistrate smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, there is no need to check that guy just now. Send someone to find Widow Wang. The official media has led to this guy. Everyone knows it already, so there is no need to be secretive in the future."
"Bah! You are immoral, what kind of dirty things are you thinking about in your head? If the Buddhist magical power were given to you, wait for Xiaoxiao, wouldn't the world be in chaos?" The one who spoke was Xiao Yu, who looked at the whole audience, Although he no longer prevents his son from refuting Buddhism, he still cannot bear to publicize his misdeeds in public because of his indifferent character.
After a while of commotion, the people quieted down and waited for Xiao Rui to speak. Xiao Rui smiled at his father and then said to Xuanzang: "Did you hear that? Not everyone thinks like you and has magical powers to do good deeds. Yes. Many people want magical powers, but they want to satisfy their selfish desires and do evil after having magical powers. In this case, are magical powers still supernatural powers?"
Xuanzang rolled his eyes and said, "Humph, they can't cultivate it."
Xiao Rui burst out laughing, "I know they can't succeed in cultivation. However, in order to obtain this extraordinary ability, they will imitate and practice. It's best if they fail to succeed. If they succeed, they will be the devil who brings trouble to the world. .”
"If the purpose of everyone practicing Buddhism is to pursue supernatural powers and abilities, haha, what is the difference between the pursuit of fame and fortune and the greedy pursuit of fame and wealth? It turns human beings into greedy people who practice for selfish desires and greed. Then the Buddha left Is the way of practice Buddhism? Or is it the devil's way?"
You, I...you, you are using strong words to make sense! The original intention of Buddha is to get rid of people's greed! Xuanzang was furious and was always confused by the champion.
