"This unlucky boy has a small belly and chicken intestines. I have to make up a couple of sentences for you. If I had known better, I wouldn't have married you to him."
The Queen is indeed the biological mother of Princess Zhaoyang, and her smile is like a spring breeze.
"Hehehe, Dad, don't be angry. It's not okay for a little god to be so angry that his body is damaged."
The queen of heaven supported her father, but there was something in her words. The father-in-law didn't know which way his daughter's elbow was turned. He blew his beard and glared: "You are such a white-eyed wolf! I have wasted many years of raising you up, and the god has What's wrong? Isn't it amazing! Huh, if I hadn't seen that he had such potential, I wouldn't have let you marry him. "
"Yes, yes, dad is right." The queen snickered. She didn't know who was holding her broom and driving her future son-in-law all over the mountains and fields.
Perhaps out of guilt, the father-in-law coughed lightly, let the queen support him, and walked away elsewhere.
"Hey, I miss Meng Xiangu. I don't know what she is doing. My daughter, come with me and have a look."
"Okay daddy."

"Love? It's just one of many human emotions, and it's also the most useless and short-lived. Since ancient times, how many people have been obsessed with love, but they don't know that they just fell into the trap of love... In terms of longevity, friendship is not as good as in terms of depth. It’s not as good as the love between parents... When you become a monk, you should end your worldly ties and not be tied down by the world. Love is the easiest thing to cut off, and it is also the easiest thing to destroy without attacking."
White Elephant Bodhisattva spoke so eloquently that even the great monks behind him nodded in approval.
"Venerable Baixiang is truly my Buddhist god."
"Yes, yes, Venerable Baixiang is so enlightened. It seems to the poor monk that he will definitely grow into a powerful person like the Buddha."
The deity listened and suddenly asked the white elephant: "Have you ever loved?"
Bai Xiang was a little confused by the sudden question from the god, and then felt completely at a loss: "It doesn't matter whether you love me or not, the important thing is..."
The deity interrupted him again and asked the group of old monks: "Have you ever been in love?"
The faces of the old monks showed the same confusion as the white elephants.
"I'm not talking about the love between relatives or friends, or the love for all living beings - but the preference, the unique admiration for a certain person of the opposite sex."
The Lord's tone slowed down, but his words continued to attack, with a loud bang: "You have all been chosen by the Tathagata since you were young. You have been separated from your family and friends. You have been in the temple since you were young. Eat fast and recite Buddha's name.
Don't you think this is a kind of deprivation? You have been deprived of the right to be loved and to love others. Have you ever asked yourselves? If you had not been selected as a Buddhist seed, would you be living a completely different life now?
To be able to show unbridled preferences, to express one's disgust to the fullest, to be the person one wants to be, and to do the great things one wants to do.
Rather than being all the same, wearing the same cassock, knocking on the same wooden fish, and reciting the exact same scriptures?
Why, you are deprived of the right to love, and you are still complacent, thinking that you are free from seven emotions and six desires? Comply with the laws of nature, cherish your own emotions, and everything is natural, which is the foundation.
You’ve never picked it up, so how can you put it down?”
Thunder suddenly rumbled under the clear sky outside the Immortal Palace, but it was not an accident, nor was it the words of the deity that resonated with heaven and earth.
But the Bodhisattva and Arhat's heart surged so much that heaven and earth forgot to be quiet.
You Chuiyun looked at the deity in shock.
Unexpectedly, I never expected that the Buddhist mantra was taught by the god himself... It turned out that after this debate, the Buddhists learned from the pain and gradually perfected their Dharma.
You Chuiyun suddenly thought of the nature of this debate, or why there was this debate.
Is it really a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism?
No, in that case, it would be absolutely unfair for Tathagata not to end up personally. Who are the gods? If the Tathagata and the Tathagata don't come, what chance does Buddhism have of winning?
Although the fact is that Buddhism had the upper hand for a while, wasn't it suppressed by the god at the moment? In the final analysis, Buddhism today is not mature enough.
Maybe Tathagata’s purpose from the beginning was not to determine the winner! Then his purpose is...
You Chuiyun guessed it, and those old foxes in the Immortal Palace had already figured it out.
The purpose of the Tathagata is to obtain sutras, to obtain sutras from the Eastern Heaven.
It is taken from Taoist scriptures.
"Use the other's spear to attack your own shield to judge the weakness of the other's shield." You Chuiyun judged one of the reasons.
"This is a debate and a way to strengthen oneself in the debate. Tathagata never thought about winning from the beginning. He wanted the monks to go through this difficulty and become saints after passing this difficulty!"
This is a Shura field.
If you are not careful, you will disintegrate the Buddhist empire that you have worked so hard to build. Once you succeed, why not be a complete baptism?
It turns out that Tathagata is aware of the shortcomings of today's Buddhism, and his real purpose is not to destroy or establish!
Tathagata, this Buddhist saint who appears in countless scriptures, is really a man of great courage!
Even though You Chuiyun had never seen Tathagata, he was filled with admiration in his heart. He was indeed the hero who founded the Great Sect of the World.
Since You Chuiyun knew that Yier was so smart that he dared to claim the second beauty and dared to claim the first place, he naturally knew what Tathagata was planning from the beginning, so he always responded passively.
But then I thought about it, forget it, I might not even have this bit of courage, right?
So he criticized the old monks' pain points without mercy.
"If you haven't experienced it, you can't let go. Naturally, the Buddhas you have become are false Buddhas... When Tathagata founded Buddhism at the beginning, he closed his own Dharma, poured karma into his body and then threw it away. The so-called disasters are repeated again and again. Infuse and baptize, thus leaving aside all external forces to achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha.
I can only say that he succeeded and failed. He made you and destroyed you. He imparts his teachings to you, and you apply what you have learned, and with your understanding, you do use it very well... But it is always the Tathagata's teachings, not your own.
You have to walk your own path, this is the way of the immortal family. Tathagata realized this, so he sent you here to criticize you.
Let you go back and take the detour you should take.
Monks, it’s not that I look down upon or deny your way. Buddhism is very good and very unique. But so far, I have only seen the way of the Tathagata, and a group of insensitive old monks who only know how to pass down the way of the Tathagata and create little Tathagata imprinted in the same mold.
A strong person can be strong for a thousand years. But if he doesn't change and make progress, he won't live ten thousand years. "
The god's voice was slow and he spoke the philosophical words that would leave his mark on Qingshi.
White Elephant Bodhisattva and others are naturally not fools. On the contrary, their understanding is astonishingly high.
In fact, they also vaguely guessed the reason why the Buddha asked them to come to debate Buddhism and Taoism.
But they don’t want to admit defeat. They are Buddhas and humans, not complete Buddhas, let alone complete human beings.
But White Elephant Bodhisattva took the lead to set an example.
He clasped his hands together: "Namo Amitabha... Blessed Being... Infinite Heavenly Lord."
The old monks at the back were silent for a while, then clasped their hands together and chanted: "Namo Amitabha... May the blessings of the gods be immeasurable."
The monks actually chanted the immortal gods one after another.
It makes people sigh.
The mysterious power of the Godhead.
What kind of heart do these Buddhists have in seeking the truth?
The white elephant continued to speak respectfully, with the same attitude as that of serving the Tathagata: "I dare to ask the gods, how can we make up for the shortcomings of our Dharma? What is the way for us to seek Dharma? How can we seek our own Dharma? .”
He asked three questions in a row, all of which were profound and profound.
The deity folded his sleeves in dissatisfaction and said: "Ask me why you ask so many questions. I am not a monk. I am cultivating the way of heaven, not the Bald Head Cult."
White Elephant did not dare to be presumptuous, but remained respectful: "What the Lord said is true. We are just longing for Buddhahood and the Dharma... We spend our lives searching for it. That is all we have."
"No more, no more, just realize it yourself."
The god waved his hand, indicating that he no longer wanted to reason.
Bai Xiang and other monks all bent over and lowered their heads, showing a somewhat disappointed expression.
Their Dharma has been exposed today, but how can they mend it?
Seeing the majestic white elephant just now, but now he looked like he was trying to make ends meet, You Chuiyun suddenly sighed.
He recited one of the classic sayings of a holy monk five thousand years later.
"No Bodhi tree, nor stand mirror;
There is nothing in the first place, so where can the dust be caused?"
You Chuiyun recited this sentence that was included in the Buddhist Compendium five thousand years later. At this time, it was naturally earth-shattering.
His voice was not loud in the hall, but it entered everyone's ears very clearly.
Even the God Lord suddenly looked at You Chuiyun with an incredulous look.
After You Chuiyun finished reciting the Buddhist mantra, he was noticed by everyone and knew that he had accidentally pretended to be a bitch.
Oops Oops.
The white elephant suddenly showed a fanatical look, and a group of old monks behind him also saw the fire like dry wood.
You Chuiyun's heart skipped a beat.
Sure enough, after Bai Xiang and the other monks looked at each other, they unanimously bent down and saluted him.
"Please Buddha...come back with us!"
"Please Buddha...come back with us!"
Bai Xiang continued: "The Buddha's Buddha-nature and talent really make us ashamed. If you can return to Buddhism, you will definitely be able to prosper the world and save all sentient beings!"
"Hey, great master, Grandpa Baixiang, please say goodbye. I don't have any Buddha nature. I'm just picking on people's wisdom, not what I said myself."
"Oh? Anyone who can speak out such Buddhist principles is at least an accomplished monk. Why am I familiar with the scriptures but have never seen them? Buddha, please stop being modest and please come with us!"
You Chuiyun wants to cry but has no tears.
"Isn't it all in Mahayana Buddhism... If you read more now, maybe you can..."
You Chuiyun suddenly stopped talking. He had just calculated the time silently and found that the Buddha seemed not to have invented Mahayana Buddhism yet.
"Mahayana Buddhism!" Bai Xiang was like a happy child, grinning from ear to ear: "What is Mahayana Buddhism? This poor monk has only heard of Hinayana Buddhism, not Mahayana Buddhism."
All the immortals were surprised when they heard that You Chuiyun suddenly mentioned four big words - Mahayana Buddhism.
