The theory of barrier was originally born from Onmyoji, and where Onmyoji came from, I don’t need to say more. But the moment Master Liao Kong said the word barrier, I thought of this, so I have this Just ask.
Master Liao Kong stared at the Buddhist beads in mid-air and said in a deep voice: "Yes, the techniques used by Sakurajima Onmyoji are completely different from our formations. I didn't expect the monks over there to study these techniques." It seems that the ancestors of Jianzhen worked tirelessly to cross the sea and passed it on, but they did not carry it forward at all. Otherwise, they would not have come up with such an unattractive thing! "
After listening to Master Kong's words, it can be heard that he has deep opinions on Sakurajima's Onmyodo and even Buddhism there, and his words are full of contempt.
The so-called Jianzhen Patriarch is the famous Jianzhen Eastward Journey event in history.
During the Tang Dynasty, many people contributed to the exchanges between the Chinese and Japanese peoples. Among them, the most prominent one was the eminent monk Jianzhen.
He was not afraid of hardships, traveled east to Sakurajima, taught Buddhist theories, spread the profound Kyushu culture, and promoted the improvement of Sakurajima's Buddhism, medicine, architecture and sculpture. He was respected by the Chinese and Japanese people and the Buddhist community.
Jianzhen, whose original surname was Chunyu, became a monk in Yangzhou when he was 14 years old. Because he was diligent and studious, he became a very knowledgeable monk after middle age.
In 742 AD, at the invitation of a monk from Sakurajima, he made six trips eastward. After going through a lot of hardships, he finally arrived at Sakurajima two years later. However, he became blind as a result. He stayed in Sakurajima for 10 years and worked tirelessly to spread the word. He brought a large number of books and cultural relics to the Tang Dynasty's many cultural achievements. Some of the people who went with him included those who understood art and medicine, and they also applied what they learned to Sakurajima.
Jianzhen carefully designed the Tangzhaoti Temple plan for Sakurajima based on the architectural style of temples in the Tang Dynasty in my country. After two years, Toshodaiji Temple was built, which is also the most famous Buddhist building in Sakurajima.
Regarding this, Master Liao Kong maintained a disdainful attitude, as if Monk Jianzhen had done something wrong back then, but doesn't Buddhism pay attention to how to help people who are destined to be together? Why is Master Roku so angry about the preacher Sakurajima? Could it be that he knows some inside story that ordinary people don’t know?
But I don't care about any of this at the moment. What I care about is what he just said about the barrier.
"Master, are you saying there is a barrier here?" I asked directly.
Master Liao Kong nodded: "The Buddhist beads have pointed out the direction for me. There are extraordinary energy fluctuations here."
Without even thinking about it, I asked, "Then, is there a way to get rid of it?"
This is crucial. Just knowing it is not enough. Whether it can be broken is the key.
When Master Liaokong heard this, he puffed up his chest and said with high spirits: "Since we can see through it, how can we still not see it through?"
After saying that, the Buddhist beads in the sky suddenly erupted with intense bright light, and then Master Zuokong closed his eyes tightly and recited an unknown mantra in his mouth. The next second, the familiar Dharma Body of the Arhat Subduing the Dragon slowly appeared behind him again, The moment the Dharmakaya appeared, Master Liaokong stretched out his hand to hold it. The Dharmakaya behind him also stretched out his hand at the same time. I moved towards the big Buddha bead.
"The Fudo Myooh Curse!"
Master Liao Kong suddenly shouted this sentence, and then the Dragon-Subduing Arhat's Dharma Body suddenly exerted force, and punched the air in front of him.
This punch was powerful and heavy. There was nothing in front of me, but I saw circles of ripples rippling in the air.
After this punch was fired, Master Liao Kong also
He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, then withdrew his hand, and then the Dharma Body behind him slowly dispersed into nothingness.
Is this the end?
I was a little curious, so I looked at Master Kong blankly and said, "Master Kong, is this... the end?"
Master Liao Kong didn't even raise his eyelids, he just said calmly: "Wait a minute, my Immovable Ming King Curse is enough to break this barrier!"
I had another doubt, and then asked: "Master, I have heard of Fudo Myooh. Are you saying that the simple punch just now was the Fudo Myooh curse?"
Master Liao Kong then opened his eyes and looked at me: "Otherwise, how complicated can it be? The more powerful the method is, the simpler it is to perform it. Do you understand the so-called Tao to Simplicity?"
Having said that, Master Liekong fell into deep thought and said to himself: "If nothing happens to Xuankong Temple, the Dharmakaya I have cultivated now should be this Fudo Mingwang, not the Kasyapa you saw." Venerable sir, it’s time for you to cultivate your golden body to the point where you have a golden body that is five feet long!”
Hearing this, I have another question. Not to mention the accident at the Xuankong Temple he mentioned, is there any difference between this Dragon Subduing Arhat and this Fudo Ming King?
Seeing my confused look, Master Liao Kong also understood the doubts in my heart, and explained in a deep voice: "Of course it's different!"
Then he sighed and added: "Just because I have violated the precept of killing, it is difficult to practice, and I cannot complete the cultivation of enlightenment, so I can only commit myself to the likes of Arhats!"
Later, Master Liao Kong explained their Buddhist practice standards to me in detail.
As we all know, the three most representative titles in Buddhism are Buddha, Bodhisattva, and Arhat.
There is also a big gap in strength between these three types. To sum up, Buddha is the strongest, Bodhisattva is the second, and Arhat is the lowest. Of course, it is impossible to really have a Buddha now. What I am talking about is the empty space before. The Dharmakaya displayed by the Master.
What Master Liao Kong cultivates is the Arhat Dharmakaya, the Arhat Subduing the Dragon.
According to him, the Arhat Dharmakaya is equivalent to the cultivation level of a great heavenly master in the Taoist sect, and the cultivation of the Bodhisattva Dharmakaya is the peak cultivation level of a great heavenly master. As for the Buddha, he said that he has not seen it for many years.
According to my understanding, the so-called Buddha Dharmakaya is almost the same as the cross-border cultivation mentioned by Senior Qin Tian and my grandfather. ..
The Fudo Myoyo mantra used by Master Lokong before represents the Bodhisattva Fudo Myoyo. His real name is Fudo Myoyo Bodhisattva. He is only one step away from the Buddha.
The difference between Buddha, Bodhisattva and Arhat lies in their own enlightenment.
The so-called Arhat is a self-aware person who can restrain his own behavior.
In addition to self-awareness, Bodhisattvas also have an additional layer of awareness. In addition to restraining themselves, they can also influence others subtly.
As for the Buddha, on the basis of self-consciousness and awareness of him, there is an additional layer of perfect enlightenment!
What is perfect awareness and action? It means to do whatever you want, do what you think of, and no external objects can interfere with it. No matter what it is, the determination in your heart cannot be shaken. This is a bit like Wang Yangming's unity of knowledge and action.
This is the difference between Buddha, Bodhisattva, and Arhat. Master Liao Kong’s current body is an Arhat. If you want to become a Bodhisattva, you need to awaken to him. This is one of the reasons why he came to me. He hopes to use his own method to , to influence me, this is the only way to realize him. _&
