Daoist Master of Qing Xuan Chapter 152: Indra
The other methods derived from this and the closed mantra are mostly derived from the ascetic monk's practice philosophy.
Some people may think that ascetic monks have a Confucian so-called "preserving the laws of nature and destroying human desires", but they are not. There is still a subtle difference between the two. The Confucian "save the principles of nature and destroy the desires of man" is based on the heart of the heavens, while the ascetic monks take the heart of the heavens as the heart.
Of course, in addition to the ascetic monks in Maha City, there are figures from Xuanmen Taoism, and even Confucian scholars, teaching in the city, which is rare in other parts of Lingzhou.
However, with the inclusiveness of Maha City, there are still unacceptable practitioners, that is, monks of the magic way.
The so-called demon way, the most widely spread is the kind of heavenly demon that he transforms into the sky, in fact, there is also the Shura clan, which is also considered demon way. The reason why Mahe City does not welcome monks in the magic way is because of a protector of the Buddha, and this protector is called Indra. Few people have heard the name Indra, but his other title is well known in the world, called Di Shitian.
Di Shitian was born in the Nine Heavens Thunder, a natural **** like the Thunder God, and later admired the Buddha's Dharma and became the Buddha's attendant.
However, after the Buddha went into extinction, Di Shitian rebelled against the sand gate and entered the Shura Demon Path. The blood-changing sword that had been widely spread before was actually created by Di Shitian.
Di Shitian caused the first catastrophe of Lingshan after the Buddha died. Venerable Ananda, who had the best friendship with Mahakaya in Buddhism, was beheaded by the Shura sword of Emperor Shaotian.
Later, Kassapa said in Maha City that Emperor Shaotian also came and issued three swords. Later, Maha Kassapa fell in the Great Tribulation of Lingshan. It is said that it was because of the three swords of Emperor Shitian that Maha Kassapa suffered an incurable injury that caused him to finally escape the death.
This is impossible to verify, but the people in Maha City believe it.
Up to now, the Dharma has spread to almost every corner of Lingzhou, but in the kingdom of Magadha in Lingzhou, Dharma is still not believed in. The kingdom of Magadha is the residence of Emperor Shaotian, and even the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas cannot take a step further.
Shen Lian and Chao Xiaoyu learned about the story of Di Shitian together, and they both thought about it.
Chao Xiaoyu said: "I always thought that the blood-changing sword is inseparable from him, but the root is in Indra."
Shen Liandao: "According to these people in Maha City, Indra's Shura knife can already be compared with the Buddha's Dharma. This shows that Indra's practice has already deduced the magic way to the point where it reached its peak. , Of course, he must have also practiced Buddhism concurrently, so it is more difficult to predict his actual state."
Chao Xiaoyu said: "You said we are going to the Paradise of Bliss, should we start with Indra?"
Shen Lian smiled and said: "It should be the case. Since he has been a protector of the Buddha, he should know a lot of the mysteries of the Paradise and Lingshan. After all, no matter how powerful my Yi Dao is, it is impossible to count the situation in the Paradise and Lingshan. "
Chao Xiaoyu said: "It's just that Indra has been operating the Magadha country for thousands of years, and it is expected that the iron barrels operated there have been ordinary. Even if we can break his law, I am afraid that he is likely to escape. Besides, we are not suitable for making too much noise now."
Shen Lian said: "I don’t know how powerful it is for the time being, but according to the legend, he used three swords on Mahakaya. If we can witness the three swords with our own eyes, we should be able to see his mystery. ."
Chao Xiaoyu doubted: "But that was a thing ten thousand years ago. Even if we can deduct it, it's still very difficult. If you see it with your own eyes."
Shen Lian said leisurely: "I have been practicing diligently recently, or I can try to look back in time."
Chao Xiaoyu looked happy. What she likes is not that she can see the mystery of Indra, but that Shen Lian can touch the light of time. This means that Shen Lian is becoming more and more unpredictable and closer to the last step.
Actually, Shen Lian himself is not 100% sure, but he already has the possibility of trying.
Before that, he still needs some preparation.
There is an ancient street in the city of Maha, which is very remote, but it is also very famous, because the shops on this street mainly sell antique calligraphy and painting.
Because the Zen philosophy is the most prevalent in Maha City, some calligraphy and paintings or utensils that retain the charm of previous sages will be of great benefit to practice.
It's just the charm of those great sages and great sages, which are often unremarkable, so they also need to be superb in order to detect them.
This is also an opportunity to test one's own wisdom, so some practitioners often come to this street to hunt for treasures when they realize that they have reached a certain level.
However, because of this, some merchants made fake calligraphy and paintings or utensils to sell them at high prices.
If you have poor eyesight, you can only suffer from boredom.
After all, this is because I don’t have enough wisdom, and I cannot blame others.
There are not many people who come and go on this street, because those calligraphy, paintings and utensils are often sold at very high prices. If you accidentally punch your eyes, you can lose a lot.
Also, few people dare to take advantage of ~IndoMTL.com~ because the merchants who can operate in this street are actually clever cultivators.
As the years go by, there are several old shops that are the most famous and well-known. But for the merchants on this street, the most unpredictable thing is a shop in the middle of the street.
This shop was called Zhi Zhi Zhai, and it has been open for a long time.
Zhizhizhai is said to have existed when Maha City was established. The owner's surname is Wang, who is called Wang Shidao.
Wang Shidao looks almost like a mortal in his early thirties, except that his hair is quite pale between his temples, and he looks like he is about to be fifty years old.
He is a very bookish scholar. At present, the most famous scholar in Maha City, Atimo, is a student of Wang Shidao, but few people know the relationship between them.
And Wang Shidao didn't like Atimo showing the relationship between him and Atimo to the outside, and he didn't even recognize this student.
But every year, Atimo will choose a sunny day and bring the best wine and food to Zhizhizhai.
Today's weather is very good, there is no cloud in the sky, the breeze is slow, the willow branches on the street are gently swaying, the posture is graceful, more charming than the figure of the dancers who dance the devil dance.
Atimo's head was wrapped in a white scarf, his clothes were tight and tight, he didn't breathe a little bit, his face was full of beard, and he looked very serious. In fact, he is a very humorous person, no matter how rich a prince, or a trafficker, can talk to him.
Moreover, he is a person who is very close to the lower classes and has presided over justice for many ordinary people. In Maha City, he is a bodhisattva of compassion who came to reality.
Atimo knocked on the door of Zhizhi Zhai, and after a while, the door opened.
It was a child who opened the door. He politely said: "Mr. Atimo, Brother Wang is entertaining guests. He knows that you have brought snow lotus wine. You can bring the wine in."
