Zhang Shaofei said frankly: "The Buddha Sakyamuni and the sages Confucius, Mencius, Laozi, and Zhuangzi each expounded the true meaning of the universe and life, like a vertical ladder upward. Although the levels are different, the direction is the same. This also starts from On the other hand, it is not just those who study Buddhism who have Buddha nature, but everyone has Buddha nature, and everyone can become a Buddha."
"So, how can one become a Buddha?" Master Wuendang Zangni asked.
Zhang Shaofei replied: "Sudden enlightenment and Buddhahood!"
"What does it mean to become a Buddha suddenly?"
Everyone in the room was stunned. Although their minds seemed to be penetrated by a huge electric current, their eyes were full of doubts.
Zhang Shaofei smiled lightly. He knew very well in his heart that his "Sudden Enlightenment and Enlightenment" theory had such shocking power. It was more violent than an earthquake of magnitude 8, more powerful than a typhoon of magnitude 12. It was enough to shake the heaven and earth, make ghosts and gods weep, and make the sun and moon dim. The stars fade!
His voice is like the spring breeze in February, blowing warmly into everyone’s heart:
"You have to understand that the mind of each of us is the Buddha's mind. There is nothing outside the mind, and there is no Buddha outside the mind. All dharmas are within oneself. To become a Buddha is just to realize one's own nature. So, why not follow one's own mind? Suddenly realize your true nature?"
"As soon as I heard that 'the mind should be born without abiding', I had a great enlightenment and suddenly saw the true nature. Therefore, I want to spread the enlightenment teachings and spread them all over the world for thousands of years, so that all sentient beings with destiny can escape from the sea of troubles and suffering. relief."
Master Wuwu Zangni ignored her age and virtue, and no matter how surprised others were, she prostrated herself on the ground, crawled at the feet of the young Zhang Shaofei, and kept kowtowing...
Zhang Shaofei was unprepared and unable to escape from the chair.
He had an idea and held a Buddha statue on the altar table to his chest. In this way, the endless Tibetan nun paid homage to the Buddha.
After a long while, Master Wuwu Zangni's state of mind calmed down. She knelt there, clasped her hands, and respectfully asked Zhang Shaofei for advice: "Master, how can you practice to achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha?"
Zhang Shaofei said slowly: "Zen practitioners do not think about good or evil. They observe their own minds and see their own nature, and then they can suddenly realize Bodhi."
He saw that Master Wuwu Zang did not follow his instructions and entered the Zen point, so he suddenly shouted: "Master Wuwu Zang!"
Master Wuwu Zangni responded subconsciously: "Yes!"
Zhang Shaofei said with a smile: "What the Master just answered is the effect of your sincerity. If you use this non-thinking mind to truly observe Prajna, you will find that in an instant, all false thoughts will be eliminated."
Master Wuwen Zangni closed her eyes slightly and remained still. Gradually, a peaceful and peaceful look filled her face...
Zhang Shaofei lost no time in guiding her: "Wisdom is insightful, clear inside and outside, and awareness comes from the original mind. If you recognize the original mind, you can be liberated; if you are liberated, it is Prajna Samadhi, that is, no thought. What is no thought? If you see it All dharmas, the mind is not greedy, uncontaminated, and has no thoughts. When you use it, it pervades everywhere, and it is not attached to any place. It comes and goes freely, without stagnation or hindrance. This is freedom and liberation. If you know your own mind, , realize the method of no thought, and as soon as you realize it, you will reach the Buddha's land and see the realm of all Buddhas. You are the Buddha!"
The endless Tibetan nun master suddenly realized! Her face showed the kind of sad smile that Venerable Kassapa had when he was at Lingjiu Mountain, and her whole body seemed to be radiating a strange brilliance! The other three people in the room were so shocked by this scene that they opened their mouths and were speechless for a long time.
I don’t know how long it took, maybe it was an hour, maybe it was an instant, Master Wuwu Zangni woke up from the joy of enlightenment. She said seriously: "Elder, please accept my disciple's bow."
This time, Zhang Shaofei did not avoid it.
Liu Weishu also stood up, straightened his clothes, bowed his head to Zhang Shaofei, and said: "This disciple is ignorant of Mount Tai, and almost misses the good teacher. It is a sin."
Zhang Shaofei returned the courtesy and said: "Don't dare."
For some reason, Liu Xiubin burst into laughter.
"You don't study Buddhism and just laugh and laugh all day long. Look at Master Zhang Shaofei." Wuwu Zang said reproachfully.
Liu Xiubin said: "I just laughed when I thought of Zhang Shaofei. He has never studied Confucian classics and doesn't even know the words, but he can understand the true meaning and grasp the essence better than me, who has been reading all his life. He also I have never heard of the Nirvana Sutra, but I understand it more deeply than you, my aunt, oh, no, the great elder, who has recited it all his life. He only spent eight months pounding rice in Tozen Temple. , but surpassed eight hundred eminent monks and obtained the mantle in one fell swoop, don’t you think it’s strange?”
Master Wuwu Zangni rolled his eyes at him: "Isn't this strange? The Buddha said that Bodhisattvas possess the five powers. Not to mention Buddhist teachings, even Confucian and Taoist writings, medical skills, and craftsmanship. There is nothing he is not proficient in."
Liu Xiubin shook his head and said, "No way? So awesome? Doesn't that mean he is an omnipotent god? I don't believe it."
Liu Weishu said: "Xiubin, if you don't study Buddhism, you naturally don't understand it. Buddhism is indeed incredible."
Liu Xiubin glanced around and said: "You are all Buddhists, let's come together to hoodwink me? Since Buddhism can lead to wisdom and understanding, why does the great elder lose to me every time he plays Go? Zhang Shaofei, you are a Bodhisattva in the flesh, let's play In a game of chess, if you can beat me in chess skills, I will truly admire you."
Zhang Shaofei smiled: "Sorry, I'm not good at playing chess."
When Liu Xiubin heard what he said, he felt even more relieved. He laid out the chessboard and said challengingly: "You are all Buddhists. I am the only one who respects Confucianism. Who dares to compete with me on the chessboard?"
Master Wuwu Zangni said: "You are so messy!"
Liu Xiubin said: "Didn't you say that learning Buddhism can lead to five enlightenments? Why don't you dare to challenge me?"
Huanjing sat quietly at the other end of the chessboard.
Liu Xiubin smiled and shook his head: "Third sister, oh, little elder Huanjing, I taught you how to play chess. Do you dare to compete with the elder?"
Huan Jing smiled, silently picked up a white stone, and gently placed it at the three or three positions below. Liu Xiubin had no choice but to challenge. After thirty-two moves, Huan Jing fell to the disadvantage, and a big dragon was trapped by the black chess piece.
Contrary to Huan Jing's gloomy look, Liu Xiubin's face was full of joy and he said proudly: "Hurry up and admit defeat, the big dragon is trapped, 'Don't use the hidden dragon', there is no hope."
Huan Jing struggled with her hands, and the situation became more and more dangerous.
Liu Xiubin said boldly: "You have studied Buddhism for a year, but your chess skills have not improved. It seems that Buddhism is just Buddhism and has nothing to do with other knowledge."
Huan Jing blushed and stood up to admit defeat.
Zhang Shaofei said: "Wait a minute, there is no winner in this game."
Zhang Shaofei dropped a piece on a blank space on the chessboard. Just like the finishing touch, although the white dragon on the chess game still had a small section of its tail cut off, the entire dragon body immediately came to life and soared into the sky. The black piece was hit by the white stone, but the breaking point was completely revealed, and dangers abounded.
Liu Xiubin thought hard for a long time, but still had no solution, so he muttered: "What kind of strange trick are you doing?"
Zhang Shaofei smiled faintly: "This may seem false, but it is actually a dragon with wings. The so-called 'Don't use the hidden dragon' has become 'Flying dragon in the sky'. You are too competitive and want to swallow others in one bite. Excessive use of force resulted in being cut off at the waist. This is called 'the dragon has regrets'!"
