Master Tripitaka’s previous life was Jin Chanzi, the second disciple of Buddha.
Jin Chanzi descended to earth and experienced calamity, it seems, just to learn from the Western Heaven.
Now that the sutra collection was successful, there was originally an extra Chantan Buddha in Lingshan. However, Master Tripitaka jumped out of the cage and was not promoted to a great position by Lingshan.
Even now, the title of "Holy Buddha" is a spontaneous honorific title given by all living beings in the world. Master Tripitaka is still an ordinary monk as always.
This is also what surprises the immortals and Buddhas in the three realms the most.
It can be seen from this that people's ambition to "walk in the world of mortals and help all sentient beings" is not just a matter of words.
What does cultivation mean?
What is the true result?
In the words of Fahai: Everyone practices and only seeks positive results. Does this mean that the meaning of practice is lost?
The poor monk does not seek any Dharma and attainment, he just does what he thinks he should do.
Achieving enlightenment without realizing it seems to be the inheritance of Master Tripitaka. Even though thousands of demons asked for help from the Buddha to promote Little White Dragon to the status of Bodhisattva, Little White Dragon still went his own way and never confirmed his status as a Bodhisattva.
At this point, even Lingshan has nothing to do with him.
Throughout the ages, there is no Buddhist among the Buddhist sects who has not been holding back their efforts to achieve the right enlightenment. Even if they cannot become a Buddha or achieve the status of a Bodhisattva, even if they can become an Arhat, it is still a very remarkable thing.
Until a few of their masters and disciples came out, Lingshan had to beg them to be promoted to great positions.
It was also the appearance of their masters and disciples that immediately raised the image of eminent Buddhist monks to such an extent that all living beings in the world now say: A Buddha is a true Buddha unless he becomes a Buddha.
A true eminent monk only cares about the suffering of the people and devotes himself to transforming all sentient beings. However, it is just a passing cloud. How can he be regarded by an eminent monk?
And never use such philistine words to insult the eminent monk!
Not to mention, it seems that after these remarks spread, many eminent monks in the world suddenly became enlightened, put aside their past persistence in cultivating the righteousness, and suddenly felt that the world was clear and bright, and the mystery of all things was before their eyes.
Some Zen monks even condensed the relics on the spot after their sudden enlightenment, and said bluntly: "The Tripitaka is born, and the Buddha's Dharma is clear in the sky."
What surprised everyone even more was that none of these eminent monks who had condensed the relics had any intention of attaining enlightenment. Instead, they packed up their bags and left the Buddhist temple one by one, going to the world of mortals to save sentient beings.
Perhaps it was because of this that the master and the apprentice became so distant from each other that they turned against each other?
Even people in Buddhism can't figure out the key points of these things, let alone outsiders. In fact, if I really want to get to the bottom of it, not many people can figure it out. Most of them just want to watch and have fun.
If this kind of fun will burn them, they will naturally follow the principle of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages and take the initiative to stay away.
The main reason is that this relic originating from Upaladha Buddha is really unexpected, which makes them inadvertently confused.
But in fact, for the Buddhists present, although the relics of the former Buddha are Buddhist sacred objects and cannot be desecrated, they would all be convinced if they were in charge of Master Tripitaka.
This also shows that Master Tripitaka’s name as “Holy Buddha” has already penetrated deeply into the mind and body.
Guanyin Bodhisattva has already stepped down from the altar, and the relic was pushed to the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda by Master Tripitaka.
When everyone saw that Master Tripitaka did not do any protection for the relics, they inevitably felt a little unsafe in their hearts. Such a treasure was so brightly photographed on the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Aren't they afraid of attracting people to covet it?
What if the Buddha treasure is lost?
Um?
It seems that this relic is just that to Master Tripitaka. He doesn't even care about the relics he has condensed. This relic may be a Buddhist treasure to others, but it is not enough to let others know. Master Tripitaka takes it too seriously.
Besides, Master Tripitaka is in the Big Wild Goose Pagoda on weekdays. Who dares to steal the treasure in front of him?
As for snatching it by force, that is even more nonsense. Not to mention that they are not the opponents of Master Tripitaka. Even those powerful people from the three realms who can defeat Master Tripitaka, who would specifically come to snatch this relic?
To put it another way, even if Master Sanzang is out and away from home to steal the treasure, you must first have the ability to avoid the six ears of the six-eared macaque.
Besides, there is a "thief" like the Great Sage here, so he may not dare to show off in the hands of such experts.
Unless the great sage can't help but indulge in hand addiction
After thinking about this, everyone felt that it was quite appropriate for the relic to be placed on the top of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
The golden light of the relic may not be visible during the day, but if it comes at night, it will definitely be a grand scene in the three realms. I just don’t know what the leader of the Jisai Kingdom will think after hearing about this.
After all, the relics enshrined in the former Jinguang Temple and now the Fulong Temple in Zhenguo were originally their signature. It was precisely because of this relic that the Sacrifice Kingdom became the suzerain of the country, and the original Gaochang, Xiliang and other four kingdoms Surrender and worship.
Of course, this kind of thing that makes countries surrender because of a treasure usually does not happen in the Central Plains.
If that treasure is really that powerful, then the heroes of the Central Plains human race will only have one thought: "Why can't I be the one in charge of that treasure?"
Previously, because of the advent of the Xuanyuan Sword, some people were secretly making trouble, saying that whoever gets the Xuanyuan Sword will win the world.
Among them, there are many people who lack sense and believe it to be true and are eager to try it.
But he basically didn't show up much, and was dealt with by Yuan Tiangang's bad guys. It can be said that it didn't cause any big disturbance.
But one of the most important reasons is that Xuanyuan Sword has not appeared in the world. Even if Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng jointly calculated, they could not calculate the whereabouts of Xuanyuan Sword at all.
A few years later, the initial turmoil of searching for Xuanyuan Sword gradually subsided.
As for those who still refused to give up, on the premise of not disturbing the people, the bad guys did not press too hard. Instead, they were left to look for them. In the words of their leader Yuan Tiangang, they had nothing to do anyway, so it was better to let them Explore the road ahead, what if there are any clues?
"Namo Tripitaka Tathagata."
Um?
When the Great Sun Tathagata came to the stage, he clasped his hands and did not give Master Tripitaka a chance to speak. He met him as a fellow disciple and then looked at each other.
Everyone present was stunned at first, and then became ecstatic!
The Great Sun Tathagata did not expect that he was the only "Buddha" present.
It's also strange that Tripitaka's post among the Buddhas in Lingshan was only given to himself and Tathagata Buddha. When the two of them received the post, they didn't know why, but inexplicably thought of Maitreya Buddha, the Buddha from the east.
By the way, didn’t the consciousness-only sect founded by Master Tripitaka inherit the yoga sect of Maitreya Buddha?
Why does it look like the two of them are not too close?
But it's not easy for them to ask about this. They can't take the invitation and place it in front of Maitreya Buddha, and then ask: Why didn't Tripitaka invite you when he opened the sect?
Although the Great Sun Tathagata did think about doing this, he felt that there was no need to offend people to death, so he gave up.
Master Tripitaka actually doesn't have a very good relationship with the Buddhas in Lingshan, either from his own perspective or from the perspective of "Golden Chanzi", so he doesn't post that many posts.
All the Bodhisattvas only gave it to Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Even Samantabhadra Bodhisattva and Peacock Daming King Bodhisattva did not receive the invitation, let alone other Bodhisattvas.
The difference is that Samantabhadra Bodhisattva, who did not receive the invitation, was in Luzhou, Beiju, to transcend demons and demons, and did not come this time. He just asked Muzha to say hello to Master Tripitaka on his behalf; while Bodhisattva Peacock Daming King wanted to take Princess Peacock back to practice, so Stop by to visit Chang'an.
Regarding the fact that Master Tripitaka did not send an invitation, Peacock Daming King Bodhisattva did not take it seriously. After all, considering the few people invited by Master Tripitaka, if he was included among them, he would feel uncomfortable.
The Great Sun Tathagata was also trying to save face. When they met, he announced unilaterally without saying a word that he, the Great Sun Tathagata, the leader of the Tantric religion, recognized Master Tripitaka's title of Holy Buddha.
It doesn’t matter if Master Tripitaka doesn’t decide on the Buddha’s name. The poor monk will preach it for you. The so-called eagerness for justice and kindness is nothing more than this.
Thinking back to the scene when they first met at Futu Mountain, the Great Sun Tathagata never expected that Master Tripitaka would make such rapid progress. After just over ten years of learning, he would actually improve in cultivation and realm. All have such terrifying improvements.
What made him most unbelievable was the founding of the "Consciousness Only Sect". Even if Jin Chanzi's true spirit was revived, he was still just a stubborn monk who knew a little about what Jin Chanzi was like back then. There is no such wisdom.
Otherwise, Buddha would not have driven him down to the mortal world and endure reincarnation because of his "laughing at a flower".
Therefore, the Great Sun Tathagata believes in one thing more, that is, the resurrection of the true spirit of Jin Chanzi is true, but perhaps the true spirit was accepted by Sanzang. The real leader is Tang Sanzang, and the one who truly has great wisdom, It is also Tang Sanzang.
Jin Chanzi's true spirit resuscitation was just to let Master Tripitaka know about the Mahayana Buddhist scriptures in Lingshan Sutra Pavilion in advance. During the fourteen years on the road to obtain scriptures, Tripitaka Master integrated them and became his own sect.
Hence the scene of Lingshan Debate, in which all the Buddhas cannot win.
At this moment, the words "Namo Tripitaka Holy Buddha" were spoken. The Guanyin Bodhisattva who had just stepped off the altar was shocked. I thought that Tathagata Buddha had sent the relics of Upalatha Buddha, which was already an unexpected move. Thinking of this, this person is even more unstable.
The Bodhisattva clearly saw a rare expression of astonishment on the face of Master Tripitaka opposite Mahavairocana. This was an expression rarely seen on Tripitaka's face.
Well, it’s not in vain.
This grand event should not have any major surprises, but the small surprises from time to time have never stopped.
When the Great Sun Tathagata said "Namo Tripitaka Holy Buddha", Tripitaka knew this "Buddha's name". Even if he explicitly refused at this moment, it would be of no avail.
because
"Namo Tripitaka Tathagata!"
I don't know who started it. First it was the monks in Ci'en Temple, then the many Arhats and monks who came from Lingshan, then the people of Chang'an City, and finally Guanyin Bodhisattva, Zhenyuan Immortal and Lishan Laomu, They all called out "Namo Tripitaka Tathagata".
Li Shimin also clasped his hands together and called Master Tripitaka's Buddhist name: "Namo Tripitaka Tathagata."
At the same time, I sighed more and more in my heart: This is the will of the people!
People are like water, they can carry a boat or capsize it.
exactly.
"Amitabha."
As the wishes of all living beings gathered together, the Buddha's light on Master Tripitaka was almost condensed into substance at this moment. And the relics he had broken several times seemed to be re-condensed as a result.
At the same time, a shadow of a golden wheel of merit appeared behind his head.
Tripitaka, do you still say that you are an ordinary monk? !
It seems that having reached such a state, it seems too modest to keep saying that he is a mortal monk.
Fahai put his hands together and recited the Buddha's name, then sat cross-legged on the green lotus, with a compassionate look on his face, and said: "Let me realize the Tathagata."
Seeing that Fa Hai responded to this "Buddha's name", the Great Sun Tathagata calmed down his not-so-calm mind a little. He had to admit that this was a risky move on his part.
Even to a certain extent, it can be regarded as coercing public opinion and "forcing" Tripitaka to become a Buddha. But I didn't expect that things would go so smoothly.
Fa Hai actually let nature take its course. He had already made this preparation before the opening ceremony. Because the Consciousness Wei Sect wants to truly gain a foothold in the Three Realms and gain a firm foothold. It also needs its "sect master" to prove his true self and suppress his luck.
Moreover, for Fahai, whether he has become a Buddha or not is just a thought. It seems that now, he has converged on the Buddha's light, and is the same as before.
It seems that becoming a Buddha is a trivial matter for Master Tripitaka. The biggest impact on him is that he has the title of "Tripitaka Holy Tathagata".
Maybe others find it weird.
But anyone who is familiar with Master Tripitaka knows that this is Master Tripitaka’s style.
So what if you become a Buddha?
It would be strange if this affected Master Tripitaka's state of mind.
It is precisely because of knowing this that the Great Sun Tathagata dares to act like this. The temperament of the Great Sun Tathagata is not peaceful at all. If it were others, he would never be able to do such a thing. The main reason is that he does not have the courage.
At this moment, the Great Sun Tathagata sent his own gift - the essence of the sun.
There are not a few people in the Three Realms who can enter the Sun Star, but there are only a handful of people who can extract the essence of the Sun from it. And this Great Sun Tathagata is the one who takes the least effort.
The Great Sun Tathagata, who had caused a lot of trouble, did not stay on the altar for long. He just congratulated Master Tripitaka a few more times and then returned to his place.
The Bodhisattva had already caught a glimpse of Taibai Jin Xingxin who was eager to try and said: It seems that the Jade Emperor's actions are not small.
Taibai Jinxing is the spokesperson of the Jade Emperor in the human world. Everyone knows this very well, and Taibai Jinxing's own gift was given in advance when he entered the temple, so he waited until now.
It was also the previous Immortals and Buddhas who had done a good job in laying the groundwork. Especially this time the Great Sun Tathagata said "Sanzang Holy Tathagata", which directly made Master Tripitaka think of this "holy Buddha" who has helped all living beings, and made Taibai Jinxing feel more and more confident. Confidence.
At the same time, he secretly said: His Majesty's handiwork is also extraordinary, otherwise I would not dare to endure until now.
Taibai Jinxing can be regarded as making a lot of friends in the Three Realms. When he was talking to Yun Zhongzi from Zhongnan Mountain, he heard Yun Zhongzi reveal a little bit, saying that at the sect's opening ceremony today, Master Zhenyuan will also give a copy to Master Sanzang. Great gift.
Although he didn't know what Immortal Zhenyuan was going to give him, Taibai Jinxing was already looking forward to how far this event would go.
"Ahem!"
Taibai Jinxing cleared her throat, summoned the Jade Emperor's imperial edict, and chanted -
"The Jade Emperor congratulates you!"
