Journey to the West: Tathagata exposed different identities at the beginning

Chapter 145 The ancients said that old age and death are thieves

Today's Xuanzang, after experiencing life and death and being given a new life by Jiang Feng, he is no longer the simple reincarnation of the golden cicada who was manipulated by Buddhism in the palm of his hand.

This is a ruthless man who has gathered the Theravada Dharma of the ninth generation and holds the script of Journey to the West.

He has both the wisdom of Buddhism and the resentment of monsters from the abyss.Now, the way he looked at the old monk transformed by Guanyin Bodhisattva was like looking at another clown.

Almost the moment Guanyin asked this sentence, he had already got up, walked down the platform slowly, and came in front of Guanyin.

"Teacher, my disciple has lost sight and committed many crimes. The poor monk has learned all his life in the Hinayana teachings, but he doesn't know what the Mahayana teachings are like?"

Xuanzang clasped his hands together with a respectful expression.

Seeing this situation, Guanyin couldn't help showing joy.

This expansion is very reasonable and perfect!

She nodded secretly and started her performance.

"Amitabha, your Hinayana teachings can't save the dead from exaltation, but can only be muddy and light. I have the Tripitaka of Mahayana Buddhism, which can surpass the dead to ascend to heaven, overcome the suffering and escape suffering, cultivate the body of immeasurable life, and achieve the inexhaustible. Nowhere to go..."

However, just when she was proud of herself and talking freely, she suddenly saw the corner of Xuanzang's mouth twitched, showing a disdainful smile.

"Ok?"

Guanyin frowned, a bad premonition welled up in her heart.

The next moment, Xuanzang restrained his respect and smiled lightly,
"Amitabha, dare to ask teacher, have you ever studied Hinayana Buddhism?"

Guanyin was puzzled, but still shook her head,

"What the poor monk learns is all from the Mahayana Buddhism at Daleiyin Temple in Lingshan, West Heaven, and the supreme wonderful sound. The Hinayana Buddhism is so trivial that it is difficult to enter the elegant hall. The poor monk... naturally will not waste time."

Hearing this, Xuanzang laughed directly.

"Hahaha, the ancients said, to grow old and not die is to be a thief."

"It seems that the ancients did not deceive me!"

Xuanzang laughed.

"What did you say?"

Guanyin's expression tightened, and there was a hint of sullenness between his brows.

Xuanzang sneered,
"Oh, the poor monk said it so clearly, can't you, you old bastard, still not hear clearly?"

"you you……"

When Guanyin heard the words, she looked at Xuanzang in astonishment, her voice began to tremble.

She couldn't imagine that Jin Chanzi, who used to be the gentlest and most humble character in the Buddhist sect, had become so tough in his reincarnation.

At this moment, Xuanzang waved his hand,
"What are you, you can't even speak well, yet you dare to come here to bluff!"

"Since you have never studied Hinayana Buddhism, you don't know its mysteries. How can you compare it with Mahayana Buddhism? What qualifications do you have to say that it is trivial and difficult to be refined?"

"Could it be because of the word 'small' in Theravada Buddhism?"

"If that's the case, those of you who understand Mahayana Buddhism are really vulgar and unbearably vulgar!"

"Whether it is Hinayana Buddhism or Mahayana Buddhism, it is just a title, just like a person's skin. My Buddha once said that there is no appearance of self, no appearance of human beings, and no appearance of sentient beings. It is no appearance. If you only value the skin, you will inevitably be vulgar in the end. This is the so-called vulgarity and light."

"Am I right, old man?"

Xuanzang said loudly.

"you……"

For a while, Guanyin was a little speechless.

She never expected that Xuanzang could speak such sharp arguments.

Everyone present, hearing Xuanzang's words, couldn't help but nodded frequently, deeply agreeing.

Seeing this, Guanyin narrowed his eyes,
"This water and land conference is a grand event in the entire Tang Dynasty. Everything that happens here will soon spread throughout the Tang Dynasty, and even the entire Nanzhan Buzhou. If Xuanzang wins the debate, Theravada Buddhism will sweep the entire Nanzhan Buzhou .As time goes by, the roots are deeply rooted, and it is bound to be difficult to implement Mahayana Buddhism."

"This time, no matter what, we must not let Xuanzang gain the upper hand!"

After all, she is a long-established Daluo Jinxian strongman, well-informed, and her state of mind is far beyond comparison.

Under such circumstances, she quickly adjusted her mentality, clasped her hands together, and said loudly: "Amitabha, the poor monk is dull. It does not represent Mahayana Buddhism."

"However, Mahayana Buddhism was created by Western sages. It can withstand the changes of the world and understand the mysteries of the universe. It cannot be exhausted in human words. And the Hinayana Buddhism, which is unknown and humble, how can it be compared with Mahayana Buddhism?"

The sound fell, and the corners of Guanyin's mouth rose.

I brought out all the second interpretations of the West, let's see what Xuanzang said!
However, when Xuanzang heard the words, he disdainfully smiled,
"You old bastard, you are really good at making excuses and telling stories."

"You say Mahayana Buddhism is good only because this Mahayana Buddhism comes from Western sages. I don't care if it is as mysterious as you said. Let me ask first, how many years have you practiced this Mahayana Buddhism?"

Guanyin frowned,
"Time is not forgiving, and it has been more than 200 years in a blink of an eye."

"And you, young man?"

She has practiced Mahayana Buddhism for more than 200 years.

But now, it is not the time to expose the real body, so I can only say a time that is not too outrageous and can act as a deterrent to mortals.

After all, the average mortal can live less than 200 years.

Xuanzang sneered,
"Ashamed, I have only practiced for more than 30 years. However, in the past 30 years, I can learn the basics of Hinayana Buddhism. If I have another 30 years, I will definitely master it."

"But your Mahayana Dharma has been studied for 200 years without getting superficial. Dare I ask, is the Mahayana Dharma created by the Western saints for others to learn?"

"If it is obscure and difficult to comprehend, no matter how mysterious it is after the cultivation is completed, it is nothing more than a mirror image, drawing cakes to satisfy one's hunger."

"This, I'm afraid it's the so-called difficult to enter the elegant hall..."

As soon as these words came out, Guanyin was at a loss for words.

"This……"

However, Xuanzang, who had already gained the upper hand, did not stop talking, and continued in a loud voice: "Just now, you said that the origin of Theravada Buddhism is unknown, but as far as the poor monk knows, the person who created Theravada Buddhism was the Buddha Sakyamuni himself. , the Buddha became enlightened from under the bodhi tree and became a Buddha, established the Eastern Posao Pure Land, and created Hinayana Buddhism.”

"Later, the two sages in the West, in order to protect the luck of the Buddha, let the sages give way to the Tathagata. From then on, the Eastern Posuo Pure Land merged with the Western Daleiyin Temple, and the Buddha changed his mouth to promote Mahayana Buddhism and kept silent on Hinayana Buddhism."

"Although this is the case, it is undeniable that the founder of the Hinayana Buddhism is the current Lingshan Buddha. Since they are both taught by the Buddha, there is not much difference in essence except for the name. Could it be that according to your What does this old thing mean, is that after Buddha Sakyamuni became the master of Buddhism, he changed his course, forgot his original intention, and criticized his past in order to show his dignity today?"

"In this way, is he worthy to be the ancestor of ten thousand Buddhas and to be admired by the Buddhas of the three realms?"

The moment Xuanzang said these words, Guanyin was stunned.

At this moment, in her heart, it seemed as if ten thousand muddy horses were galloping past.

The shock in her heart also reached a peak.

"How is it possible, how did he know about this..."
