Gao Pragmatic's Buddhist cultivation was relatively limited. Although the man in front of him, Sonam Gyatso, unexpectedly spoke Chinese very well, Gao Pragmatic was still stunned for a moment before reacting to the term "The Third Ming King".
The Third Ming King, ranked second among the five great Ming Kings of Tantric Buddhism, is the teaching wheel of the Vajra Division among the five divisions. It is arranged in the east and has the secret name of the Most Victorious Vajra. Because it conquers the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance and the three realms, it is called the descending king. III.
In its Chinese translation, there are also names such as Victorious Three Worlds, Holy Three Worlds, Yue Zunzun, Vajra Destroyer, Wrathful Mingjing Wangzun, etc.
In addition to the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance, there is also a legend that because the gods were strong and stubborn at that time, King Ming of the third generation appeared in the form of a great wrath to subdue and teach.
At that time, most of the deities in the heavenly world were able to follow his teachings. However, Da Zi Zai Tian believed that he was the master of the three realms, so he and Concubine Wumo refused to surrender. Therefore, the third king of Ming Dynasty appeared to frighten them with a statue of great wrath. For this reason, some books say that "subdue the three worlds" means subduing the Lord of the Three Realms - Great Freedom.
The Buddhists say that the Buddha, the Ming King, etc. all have their own great wishes. The great wish of the three generations of Ming King is to uphold the heart of the Buddhas and use the hands of Vajra to subjugate demons to eliminate all greed, hatred, and delusion of all sentient beings in the world.
The above is almost all Gao Pragmatic knows about Prince Jiang III.
"May I ask what the master meant?" Gao Pingshi had some guesses in his mind, but since he had only a general understanding of Buddhism and a vague understanding of Tantric methods, he was not sure.
Suonan Gyatso's Dharma was solemn, and he loudly proclaimed the name of the Buddha and said: "Exalted Minister, you are the manifestation of the Ming King of the third generation, so you have great power and virtue, and can subdue the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance in the past, present, and future of the world, and break the obstacles of ignorance and delusion. Reappear the light of wisdom. When people in the world understand the King's Dharma, they can win battles, get rid of diseases, and be respected and loved by others."
Of course Gao Pragmatic didn't think he was the incarnation of the Ming King. He was thinking quickly about Sonam Gyatso's intention of calling him the third Ming King.
From the perspective of a secular person like him, Sonam Gyatso called him the Ming King. The first priority should be to close the relationship between the two parties - now, I am the master, you are the Ming King, and we are all one family.
This move is probably similar to the meaning of when he and Anda exchanged honorary titles.
But he gave me the title of Chakravartin King because Kublai Khan had won this title back then. The specific meaning of Chakravartin King is no longer important, but what is the internal reason for the current "King of the Third Ming Dynasty"? ?
Just now Sonam Gyatso said that high pragmatism "can conquer the three poisons of greed, anger, and ignorance in the past, present, and future of the world, break down the obstacles of ignorance, and restore the light of wisdom." This is probably based on some of the achievements Gao Wu has achieved so far. An exaggerated statement - Gao Pragmatic wrote such classics as "Longwen Whip Shadow" and was himself the number one scholar in six poems and a role model for the world. To exaggerate, it is to dispel confusion and enlighten wisdom.
As for saying that practicing the Dharma of Conquering the Third Ming King can "win battles, get rid of diseases, and be respected and loved by others", whether this is a coincidence or Sonam Gyatso's deliberate far-fetched statement, Gao Pragmatism is not very clear.
However, winning the war is obviously closely related to Gao Wuchen.
As for curing diseases, there are many great lamas in Yanjing City. They must know that Gao pragmatically has spent a lot of effort on medical research. It is not surprising that Suonan Gyatso knows this news.
And being respected and loved by others... Gao Pragmatic seems to be quite respected and loved by others. The only problem is that I don't know whether people respect him as a person or the huge interests he represents? I'm afraid the latter is the main factor.
But why did he choose to be the third Ming King? The first of the five great kings is Fudo Myooh. If we want to talk about the purpose of "building relationships", shouldn't we say that his high pragmatism is the manifestation of Fudo Myooh, which makes him more powerful?
Confused.
Gao Pragmatic couldn't figure it out for a while, so he could only say vaguely: "The greed, anger and obsession of the world are what I want; the ignorance and confusion of the world is what I want. However, whether the king is Ming or not, I really don't know, and I dare not rely on myself. .”
Unexpectedly, Suonan Gyatso seemed to have expected it. He smiled slightly and said: "King Ming appeared, but his great wish has been in his heart for a long time. The servant has never practiced the method of King Ming, so he does not have the full knowledge of King Ming. This is reasonable and inevitable. Think about it."
If he were an ordinary person, he would probably ask how to practice the "Ming Wang Method". However, Gao Pragmatic, an atheist, was not really interested in this. He just smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and made a false gesture, and said: " This is not a place to teach the Dharma, please come within the guru."
Although Suonan Gyatso was a little surprised, he remained calm and entered with Gao pragmatically with a smile.
Originally, Gao pragmatically arranged a relatively public meeting, but the move by Sonam Gyatso to call him the Third Ming King made him a little uncomfortable, and because he couldn't understand the deeper meaning for the moment, he felt a little unsure, especially because he didn't know Will there be any trouble if this news reaches the Ming Dynasty? Therefore, he temporarily changed his mind and sent everyone around him outside to meet Suonan Gyatso alone.
Suonan Gyatso also had a group of accompanying great lamas who were originally going to meet together. At this time, he was so pragmatic that he sent all his subordinates away. It was estimated that he had something to say to him alone, so he also accompanied him. The lama arranged to go to the side hall and meet Gao Pragmatic alone.
Since the others were not there, Gao Pingshi smiled and asked: "Suonan Gyatso suddenly gave the boy the manifestation of the Third Ming King. I wonder what his intention was?"
Sonam Gyatso asked, "Your Majesty, don't you believe it?"
Gao Pragmatic was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "Sonam Gyatso's letter?"
This is a bit too polite to say. If you say it openly in Tibetan areas or some places where there are many Mongolian believers, you will probably get beaten.
But Sonam Gyatso was obviously not angry. He just smiled and said: "After today, wherever my religion is taught, everyone in the world will believe it."
Gao Pragmatic pondered slightly and said: "What Sonam Gyatso means is that in the future, these matters in Mongolia will have to be tied to the kid?"
Suonan Gyatso did not answer directly, but continued to smile and said: "After today, if anything happens to Mongolia, whether the Ming Dynasty wants to intervene or deal with it, I think it will not be able to bypass you, King Ming Kai."
Oh, so that's what you meant...Interesting, interesting, but I'm afraid it's a bit similar to Li Chengliang's self-respect for raising bandits. Do I want to accept it?
The key is, if I accept it, how should I explain it to Zhu Yijun?
"What does Sonam Gyatso want?"
There will be no pie in the sky. Sonam Gyatso gave Gao Jingshi such a "benefit", so that any measures taken by the Ming Dynasty towards Mongolia in the future will almost never be able to bypass Gao Jingshi, the "three-generation Ming king". Naturally, it will not be just because of Buddhism. Compassionate, Master Sonam Gyatso enjoys helping others without asking for anything. He must have a purpose.
That being the case, there is no need to beat around the bush with such an intelligent man.
Suonan Gyatso smiled and said: "I teach people to practice good deeds as a wish, and do not want to stop at Tumote or the right wing of Mongolia. I serve the world's great talents and have aspirations for the world. I must also be willing to use the wrath of King Ming. Virtue, spread the wonderful teachings widely in other places, such as...the left wing?"
Gao Pragmatic laughed loudly, and finally answered with only two words: "Deal."

After several revisions, a certain word has been renamed "Sonam Gyatso" or "Guru". If it still doesn't read well, please ignore it. Please ignore it. I have already contacted the editor to discuss it for a long time. The version we created is indeed hopeless...
In addition, I would like to thank the book friend "Sitting at the Door of the Bistro" for his monthly ticket support, thank you!
