"But I think Buddha is unfair!"
Who dares to believe that such words were said by the previous abbot of Wenxin Temple.
Although Gu Yuan didn't know much about Master Tianming, in the Great Xia Kingdom, Master Tianming definitely deserved the title of "Eminent Monk". To put it bluntly, this man could burn relics after his death. exist……
"Master, are you questioning the Buddha?" Gu Yuan asked cautiously.
Master Tianming was stunned, silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "It's not that I'm questioning the Buddha, it's that I saw it but couldn't figure it out. Buddhism advises people to do good, but if everyone knows the cycle of cause and effect, and can't break away or escape, then that person Are you still willing to do good?"
】
Master Tianming's tone was full of worry.
Although Gu Yuan is not a disciple of Buddhism, he can still imagine and understand Master Tianming's mood at this moment.
and.
What Master Tianming said now was also what Gu Yuan was thinking.
Mr. Tong spent his whole life doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, but in the end he died tragically because of the evil caused by others. Popi Shi Lao San was hated by others, but he was nourished by digging out a box of gold, and even the box of gold was used to bury his body. It was dug out at that time.
???????????????How can there be such a truth in the world?
No matter where you put it, it’s unreasonable!
Gu Yuan's mood suddenly became heavy.
For a moment, the image of Mr. Tong dying violently appeared in his mind, with blood spurting out and his head being hit like a ball. It seemed that he could still hear the proud laughter of the group of thieves in his ears.
After a while, Shi Laosan was surrounded by stars, hugging him and playing with his wives and concubines.
"Master, is this really cause and effect?" Gu Yuan asked.
Master Tianming lowered his eyes: "Yes."
This is indeed a terrible thing.
Gu Yuan's state of mind was once again shocked.
His eyes were blank, looking at the Buddha statue in front of him.
"It shouldn't be like this..."
"Yeah... it shouldn't be like this..." Master Tianming slowly turned his face and looked at Gu Yuan, "Now, you can see the cause and effect, how about it, do you suddenly feel that this world is too boring? "
Gu Yuan's Adam's apple rolled. Although he didn't speak, the expression on his face said everything at this moment.
He has always felt that the world is beautiful.
But now, the "karma" mentioned by Master Tianming has subverted Gu Yuan's understanding of the world.
If there is anything more terrifying than death in this world, perhaps it is that there is no reward for good, no reward for evil, and no hell for death. Everyone has to struggle in confusion and pain...
Those monsters' ravings, sarcasm, jokes, curses, abuses... began to echo in my ears again.
Gu Yuan's consciousness slowly sank, as if his whole body was sinking into the water, and the cold and evil penetrated into his body through his mouth, nose, and even the pores on his body.
The state of mind that had been covered with a layer of dust before was completely shattered by Master Tianming using cause and effect as a weapon, and it was shattered into pieces.
In the past, the Lingyang clan, as monsters, used pots to help the world, cure diseases and save people, but in the end their families were ruined. The Song family, the murderers who caused all this, are still in paradise. Even if they were suppressed by Li Siming and Gu Yuan in the end, most of the people who participated in it have already died.
Isn't this the best proof?
Why...why!
If this is the way of heaven, then it is better for the way of heaven to collapse as soon as possible!
If this is cause and effect, then it is better to let the Buddhas disappear into thin air!
If the world is to be "the way it has always been" and "the way it always has been", it might as well be...
But at this moment, a light seemed to be cast in the darkness.
In that light was a familiar figure.
"Gu Yuan, this world is not as good as you think, nor as bad as they say." This is Li Siming.
But then, he became the second uncle again.
"Xiaoyuanzi, if you do good deeds, don't worry about your future!"
Then, it was Xia Youzhi's sweet smile, Fang Yu waving his hand sideways, Wei Xuanyi's blue hair blown by the wind, and Teacher Qin's gentle eyes...
"Brother...brother!"
This is Xiao Ai's voice.
Gu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and returned to the smoke-filled hall.
He looked steadily at the back of the old monk in front of him, who had been born for a long time, and then smiled bitterly.
"??????????????? It turns out that you are the biggest challenge to my state of mind..."
The ridicule and abuse of those demons, as well as the fear and uneasiness in my heart, seemed to be nothing compared with Master Tianming.
The "karma" thrown by Master Tianming can destroy all Gu Yuan's longing for the world in his heart, and can make him completely disappointed in the world, and he can even find no reason to do "good deeds".
"Yeah..." Gu Yuan said softly, "If good deeds are not rewarded, then I might as well be a bad person. Anyway, the bad consequences will not be repaid to me. Maybe, I have done good deeds and made a rogue like Shi Laosan rich. Got rich..."
Master Tianming smiled slightly.
This was the trouble in his heart.
"But... no!" Gu Yuan sighed and stood up slowly, "I still can't be a bad person..."
"Huh?" Master Tianming slowly turned his face and looked at him in confusion.
What surprised the Master was that he did not see confusion and despair on Gu Yuan's face, but instead... a smile full of yearning for life.
Gu Yuan clasped his hands together, patted the dust on his clothes, and said with a smile: "Master, after thinking about it carefully, I feel that there are more good people than bad people in this world, and there are too many people I care about. My family, my friends, the girl I like, the elders I respect, I think they are all good people."
Master Tianming looked at him steadily, with some subtle changes in his gray eyes.
"So, if I do more good deeds, even if the good consequences don't come to me, they will still be there! If I sow too many evil consequences, if the bad consequences fall on them... I will be sad."
Gu Yuan turned around and seemed ready to leave, but after taking a few steps, he suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Master Tianming.
At this moment, Master Tianming turned his back to the Buddha and faced him.
"Mage, I still don't understand."
"What?"
"The cause and effect you talk about...it is natural for an ordinary person like me to trouble you, but as an eminent Buddhist monk, you shouldn't do it! Doesn't Buddhism want to save all living beings? It doesn't matter whether it's Mr. Tong, Mr. Shi, or the human race. Okay, so be it monsters...in the eyes of Buddhism, shouldn't they all be sentient beings?"
Master Tianming's pupils suddenly shrank, and the beads in his hand were scattered on the ground.
"Pursuing...all sentient beings?" There was a touch of golden light in his eyes, "Say...just keep talking!"
He could feel that Gu Yuan seemed to have grabbed a thread, and with just one tug, he could tear away the mess in his heart!
Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment. He found that the eminent monk in front of him looked at him with a somewhat hot look.
He scratched his head and continued: "It's nothing, right? Buddhism! Save all sentient beings and plant good causes, so why bother thinking about where the good results will fall? I see that good boy, when he does good deeds, he doesn't He thought about what kind of reward he could get, even though it was what he deserved...
Master, you said, if I do good deeds, I always think about getting good rewards. In the final analysis, if I don’t do good deeds, it’s all for myself. Isn’t it selfish? In Buddhism, we just do good deeds and accumulate virtue, spread good causes all over the world, and leave good results to all people in the world. Master, is that so? "
Master Tianming did not speak, but stared blankly at Gu Yuan in front of him, with bright golden light flowing around the Buddha statue behind him.
Gu Yuan was shocked by the scene in front of him, and at this moment, Master Tianming laughed.
"I'm obsessed with it... I'm obsessed with it! All dharmas are empty, and cause and effect are not empty, so how can there be good and evil? One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, focusing on the 'I' phase creates inner demons!"
"???????????????Mage...what kind of appearance do you have?"
"Didn't I say it? I look like me! Who am I? I'm not a Buddha. Buddha is very compassionate. Buddha has no 'I', but I always think about 'I' and feel it's unfair..."
Gu Yuan: "..."
It makes sense, even though I don’t understand it!
But he could feel that Master Tianming in front of him seemed to have suddenly removed his shackles, and the golden light flowing from the Buddha statue was converging towards him, as if it was about to create a golden statue!
"If everyone in the world sows good causes, there will naturally be good fruits all over the sky... No more attachment, no more attachment!" Master Tianming stood up, shook off the dust on his cassock, and looked at Gu Yuan, his eyes filled with gratitude. "I have been persistent for all these years, but you jumped out of it so quickly... Boy, do you know what this means?"
Gu Yuan was startled when he heard this, pondered for a moment, and said tentatively: "I have a fate with Buddhism, should I become a monk?"
Forgot to always lie like this!
Master Tianming laughed loudly and shook his head.
"No, no, no... you have no connection with my Buddha. Although you are my extraditer, the Buddha cannot rescue you." He walked up to Gu Yuan with a gentle Buddha light on his body, "The reason why you want to understand this is because you Another consciousness in the body affects you."
Gu Yuan's expression froze.
Master Tianming shook his head slightly.
"The reason why you figured it out so quickly is because your subconscious helps you see the world from top to bottom. I am persistent because I see you, him, and 'me', but you seem to jump out of the world and see the world at a glance. Then he saw all the living beings.
Boy... tell me, what kind of being, when looking at people, would not see good or evil, but regard them as all sentient beings? If you look at a flock of chickens, you won't see good chickens and evil chickens. Just like you look at fish in the sea or ants in their burrows. "
Gu Yuan fell into deep thought.
"Okay, don't be persistent, just like you said to me, but do good deeds and don't worry about the future! Let's... go out together!"
On this day, Master Tianming, who had been imprisoned for twenty years, walked out of the pagoda.
It was also on this day that a golden light bloomed in Wenxin Temple. The golden light shot straight into the sky, vaguely emitting a trace of the Tathagata's Dharma. However, it stayed briefly but covered the sky and the sun.
Some people say that Sanskrit sounds can be heard hundreds of miles away.
