"Sister, please wait!"
The corner of Guanyin's mouth twitched, and Tang Sanzian took out the tea set again and boiled water to make tea.
"Today, I invite my sister to try this top-quality Huoshan yellow bud!"
With one smooth operation, a cup of tea was brewed. The two of them sat cross-legged opposite each other on the big stone. Tang San raised his hand and said, "Sister, please!"
Sweet and refreshing, the aroma is far away, and the irritability in Guanyin's heart is also diluted.
Tang San was buried with a Buddhist ceremony and asked: "Last time in Chang'an City, my sister said that the Hinayana teachings do not allow the dead to be reincarnated?"
Guanyin nodded.
Tang San's burial legend said: "But when the poor monk was at Liujiazhuang in Liangjie Mountain, he had prayed for Liu Boqin's deceased father, who was a believer. That night, he asked him in a dream that he would help him eliminate his karma and pass away."
Avalokitesvara pondered slightly and said: "The Hinayana teachings can only eliminate the suffering of eternal karma and rebirth, but the Mahayana teachings can transcend the dead and ascend to heaven, help people in trouble escape suffering, cultivate an infinite life, and escape from reincarnation."
Tang San buried the deceased and said: "Using Buddha's Dharma with one's own body to reduce the karma of the dead souls, so that they can enter reincarnation early and be reborn as human beings and do good deeds. This is the original intention of my Buddha's compassion."
"Sister, is Buddhism or the way of heaven greater?"
Tang San changed the topic and suddenly asked an irrelevant question.
This is the world of gods and demons, and there is the gaze of heaven in the dark. If Guanyin dares to say that Buddhism is superior to heaven, purple thunder is guaranteed to strike down.
Tang San moved slightly away and said to himself: "God, you've got a good eye on Piha!"
Fortunately, Guanyin pondered for a moment and then said: "Naturally, the way of heaven is great, and the Buddha's teachings also follow the laws of nature."
Tang San was buried in a sip of tea and said: "Since the principles of heaven are greater than the principles of Buddhism, then the Mahayana teachings act on behalf of heaven. Isn't it suspected of overstepping the mark?"
"What's the explanation?"
"Although anyone with nine orifices can become an immortal, the south dipper is destined to life and the north dipper is destined to death. Their fate has already been determined. Whether they ascend to heaven and become immortals, or whether they suffer in the earthly world and are punished in the underworld, it is destiny."
"The Mahayana teachings help those who are immoral to ascend to heaven, and they should be freed from suffering. The cultivation of the infinite life body disrupts the order of reincarnation of heaven and earth. Doesn't this conflict with the way of heaven?"
"this……"
Guanyin was dumbfounded.
"The poor monk observes the Taoist sect, complies with the way of heaven, advocates governing by doing nothing, and never interferes with the way of heaven."
"Confucianism emphasizes the unity of nature and man and advocates the rule of man, but it also achieves harmony with nature by regulating people's behavior."
"Buddhism teaches about cause and effect, cultivating oneself, and saving others and saving oneself. All things are empty, but why should we disturb the destiny of heaven and only increase changes?"
Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: "With great Dharma power and great wisdom, I, the Buddha, can transfer faith and kindness to the Western Paradise and escape suffering. This has not disturbed the order of heaven."
"Is the Western Paradise in this world? Is it under the control of heaven?"
Guanyin Bodhisattva did not dare to speak.
No matter how awesome the theory of the Paradise is, it is just a Buddhist kingdom created and has not broken away from this heavenly way.
If they are separated from this world, it means that they have the ability to create worlds, so why bother to teach the chicken way so hard?
"please!"
Tang San was no longer aggressive and raised his hand to signal for a cup of tea.
Guanyin picked up the tea cup to hide her inner panic, and instantly felt that the tea was no longer fragrant.
Tang San said with a smile: "I won't talk about the dispute between Mahayana and Mahayana any more."
Guanyin felt a little relieved when she heard Tang Sanfu continue to ask: "Mahayana teachings say that all living beings have Buddha nature?"
"good!"
"Then let me ask you, sister, if the Buddha said that he would put down his butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately, evil people also have Buddha nature?"
Avalokitesvara said: "This is what I, the Buddha, show to all sentient beings. There is no priority in achieving enlightenment. When you turn around, you will reach the other shore!"
Tang San asked another unrelated question, "An old farmer lived three to sixty years. He did no good or evil in his life. He worked hard and was self-sufficient. At the end of his life, he fell into reincarnation."
"A wicked man kills hundreds of lives, suddenly looks back, throws away his sword and suddenly realizes, which of these two people's Buddha nature is lighter? Which one is more important?"
Guanyin did not dare to answer immediately, and after pondering for a long time, he said: "No matter how important or important the Buddha nature is, anyone can become a Buddha by worshiping the Buddha!"
"Take a photo!"
Tang Sanbian slapped his hands, and Guanyin's body trembled slightly.
"In this way, even if evil people do evil, they can eventually become Buddhas. Good people are not respected enough, and evil people are not punished!"
"This again contradicts the Buddha's will to persuade people to do good. If this is the case, doesn't it mean that everyone should do evil?"
Guanyin felt dizzy and said angrily: "Tang Sanyan, you are also a virtuous monk, why are you distorting my Buddha's teachings?"
"I am just stating a fact, not misinterpreting Buddhism. The poor monk believes that since everyone is a Buddha in Mahayana teachings, then just follow your own heart."
"The old man in the field is a Buddha, and the mother at home is also a Buddha. The prostitutes in brothels, the butchers in the shops, the evil men in prisons, and even the local dogs and fat pigs can all be Buddhas!"
"All living beings are equal, and the Buddha's Dharma is profound, but there are thousands of ways to become a Buddha. I fell into a pit, and then I came to scold the Buddha and my ancestors. Just like this, I am still me, and I am also a Buddha!"
Guanyin was stunned on the spot, and once again thought about what Tang Sanzong said, that once you know your own nature, you will suddenly realize your true nature and become a Buddha.
She vaguely felt again that Tang Sanzong's words had the power of understanding one's mind and nature, and seemed to be able to help her achieve Buddhahood, break through her state of mind, and even create her own path.
Guanyin's face was pale, and she was constantly reasoning in her mind. She could not calm down for a long time. Now she no longer dared to underestimate the good-looking monk in front of her.
"Xiaosheng has one last question!"
Tang Sanzian raised a finger and said with a smile.
"You are a monk, and you are imitating the worldly scholars and young masters who talk about trivial things and old things. You are not serious at all!"
"Uh...haha, it's the little monk."
Guanyin replied to the Buddha and said, "Please speak!"
"Does my Buddha have magical powers and is omnipotent?"
Guanyin puffed up her chest unconsciously and said proudly: "The power of my Buddha's Dharma is naturally boundless, and we will benefit a lot if we just get a glimpse of it."
"Well, can I, the Buddha, create a stone that even he can't move?"
Guanyin decided to confirm it without even thinking about it. When she spoke, she quickly stopped the words "Of course it's possible" and frowned.
I almost fell into Tang San's trap. If it were created, wouldn't it mean that even the Buddha couldn't move it? Naturally, it means that Buddha is not omnipotent.
But being unable to create it doesn’t directly deny the omnipotence of Buddhism?
Tang San buried the clouds calmly and took a sip of tea.
Let Guanyin think carefully about this paradox in the sophistry of later generations!
Defeat Buddhism with Buddhism!
Guanyin's Taoist heart almost collapsed. This monk asked three questions, each one more tricky than the last, but it was impossible to explain. Guanyin Bodhisattva began to feel a little confused.
is it my fault?
Or is Buddhism wrong?
Why is this happening?
Who am I, where am I, what am I doing?
"Sister, sister?"
Avalokitesvara woke up from a daze, and after thousands of years of enlightenment and Buddhism, her faith was shattered by three questions, and her heart was filled with misery.
Tang San was startled when he saw her pale face.
What you did obediently was not a big joke, was it?
He just wanted to separate Guanyin from the Tathagata camp and let Guanyin raise a flag and stand on another mountain.
And find something for Guanyin to do, so as not to come here every three days to inspect the work, which would make him passive in his work.
However, mature professional managers will not do things that harm others or benefit themselves without thinking about damaging Guanyin Bodhisattva's Taoist heart.
"Master Xuanzang, the poor monk really has no answers to these three questions. I wonder if the great master can help the poor monk solve his doubts?"
Guanyin bowed slightly and actually showed a disciple's salute.
"Hey, Sister Bodhisattva, you are really embarrassing this poor monk!"
Tang Sanzun hurriedly helped Guanyin up, feeling a soft feeling, and unconsciously became distracted again, and couldn't help but want to tease her.
