Therefore, this issue makes me quite entangled, but fortunately, the decision-making power lies with Li Jingjing. She can give it to her if she wants to, and she can’t if she doesn’t want to. I don’t have to worry about her.
After Li Jingjing left, I asked Uncle Ma, as a Taoist priest, is it a bit... wrong for you to ask people to recite Buddhist scriptures?
Uncle Ma laughed and said, why do you care about this? It doesn't matter Buddhism, as long as it works, that fox was reborn with resentment. If you let me solve it, I will persuade him to leave first. If he doesn't want to, I will do it directly. , how can I have the time to slowly heal him?
But if you let Li Jingjing chant sutras by herself, it will be easier for her to accept it, and neither side will be harmed. After years of chanting sutras, it will naturally make the fox let go of his hatred.
I was still puzzled. I said, Uncle Ma, since she wants to recite sutras, Taoism also has many sutras. Why don’t you let her recite Taoist sutras?
Uncle Ma glanced at me and said something with emotion.
"In this day and age, how many people still know how to recite Taoist scriptures? Hey, as long as it works, it doesn't matter what Buddhism or Taoism is. After all, everyone is practicing, as long as they are dedicated to doing good."
There was a bit of sadness in Uncle Ma's words, and I could hear his helplessness.
In fact, I feel sorry for Uncle Ma. For so long, I have never recited any Taoist scriptures. I have always recited Buddhist scriptures.
I feel like there is something wrong with me when I follow the Taoist master in reciting Buddhist scriptures...
Uncle Ma was very generous. He waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. You are not a Taoist. You can recite whatever you want, follow your inner thoughts, and don't stick to the etiquette of the world."
Besides, you guys can practice both Buddhism and Taoism, so why do you care about this?
When Uncle Ma said this, an idea suddenly flashed in my mind, and then I asked Uncle Ma a question that hit my soul.
I said, "Uncle Ma, you said that I am acting out, but recently I always feel that I am becoming more and more different from someone acting out, or in other words, they are not the same at all."
Uncle Ma glanced at me and said, "Why is it different? Tell me, if you are not a prostitute, what else can you do?"
I thought for a while and said: "Look, since the day I came out and established the hall, none of the immortals in my hall have possessed the body. When did you see me like those people, shaking my head and jumping around? Already?"
Uncle Ma smacked his teeth and said, "Hey...didn't I say that you belong to Wentang? Wentang should be a stable one."
I shook my head: "It's not quite right. Wentang is actually upper body, just a little more stable. But my feeling is very obvious. It's not upper body at all. At most, it only gives me some physical sensations, and it never controls my body." His behavior basically doesn’t even bind his orifices. Even if they want to talk through my mouth, I don’t think it’s my upper body, but my own words based on my induction.”
Uncle Ma looked at me strangely: "So, what do you think is wrong with you?"
I said, "So I've been wondering recently, if I don't take action, then who am I?"
Uncle Ma looked at me more and more strangely, and finally showed a knowing smile and laughed.
He laughed so hard that I was confused. After he finished laughing, he said to me seriously: "Do you still remember that when you established the church, you refused to live or die?"
I nodded: "Of course I remember, I don't want to do this business. When I saw the appearance of their upper body, I felt uncomfortable. I always felt that this was not my path."
Uncle Ma smiled and said, "Congratulations, you are finally enlightened, but I can't tell you too much. You still have to figure out how to go in the future. I can only say one thing to you."
I couldn't wait to ask: "What words?"
Uncle Ma said: "Your original master can only lead you on the road. In fact, she can't teach you anything. So when the church was first established, Mother Hu was opposed to it, but she couldn't say it clearly, because if you keep following her, , the road will go astray. As for what you want to do in the future, or what you do for a living, you need to explore it yourself."
Uncle Ma's words made me think deeply, and I had to admit that they made sense, because I felt more and more that I was not the same as me.
Suddenly an idea flashed through my mind, and I said to Uncle Ma: "I remember you told me before that there is a saying about a Taoist Immortal. Do you think I am actually a Taoist?"
Regarding the debut immortal, Uncle Ma did tell me.
I remember he said at the beginning that making a debut is actually the same as making a debut, they both have to serve the immortal family. The difference is that the top immortals who make a debut have more fate, and the disciples can enter Taoism and use Taoist methods.
When a disciple comes out to look at things, he or she is usually possessed by the Immortal family and tied up in the orifice, and uses the disciple's mouth to investigate the matter. As soon as the disciple takes action, he will basically be able to read it automatically, and there is no need for much study and practice.
Because it is actually not the disciples who are looking at things, but the Immortal Family.
But debuting is different. Most of the disciples who debut need to practice on their own and go through a lot of hardships. However, when looking at things, the immortal family generally does not possess the body and bind the orifices, but is around to give guidance.
Therefore, the disciples who have just established themselves will know how to see things. Without the Immortal Family, they are just a little white person. The disciples who have started cultivating are cultivating themselves, and the Immortal Family only plays a supporting role.
In addition, most of the tasks at the entrance of the horse hall are to accumulate merit, so that the immortal family can continue to cultivate and strive to achieve positive results.
As for those who make their debut, some need to teach people the Dharma, and some need to complete different tasks. They do not necessarily have to do meritorious deeds, and the immortal family may not need to cultivate higher.
This is because many immortals who have made their debut in the Taoist Hall have actually already completed their merits and virtues, and come to the human world just to help their disciples complete their tasks.
However, some of the people who come out now are true and some are false, and the same goes for those who debut.
Because the reputation of being a Taoist is somewhat bad now, many people are trying to find a way to enter Taoism, learn some Taoist methods, and then say that they are a Taoist to raise their social status. In fact, that's all.
Just like Liu Laosan, he is a typical example.
In fact, in my opinion, what Uncle Ma said about debuting is similar to my actual situation.
Because I have three characteristics that fit my debut.
First, my immortal family never possesses the body and binds the orifices, but only gives me some body sensations and inductions. Only when I first connected the orifices, I was a little unable to control it, and I would go to the toilet with chopsticks at every turn...
Secondly, I did go through many hardships, and was even banned for a year. I practiced in Nanjing for a year and survived many tribulations before I truly embarked on this path.
Third, I feel that my task is a bit different. To be honest, I don’t really want to calculate many small things, such as finding a partner for marriage and wealth, and studying for children who are lost.
I always feel that I am the one who wants to do big things. Just like when Li Jingjing asked me if her children had a hard time at seventeen, I felt like everyone in the fairy family was curling their lips, saying they were too lazy to tell.
So, I was wondering, what on earth do I do?
