Chapter 72 The Debate of Buddhism and Taoism
On the first day of October, Chang'an City, Yong'an Palace.
Li Shimin was handling official business in the study, and the servant came in to report: "Your Majesty, a few Taoist priests have come from outside the imperial city, claiming to be from the Longhu Mountain True Immortal Temple. They heard that there is a Guanyin in Huasheng Temple, and they came to Chang'an, and please Your Majesty to witness , they want to consult with the eminent monks of Huasheng Temple."
Li Shimin became a little interested. Recently, Huasheng Temple wanted to collect money to cast a golden body for Guanyin, which made him feel a little dissatisfied.
Now God has sent a few Taoist priests here, just in time to take the opportunity to beat and beat!
Li Shimin said: "Yes! You go and inform the Taoist priests and the master abbot of the Huasheng Temple, and tell them that I will go to the Huasheng Temple tomorrow to see the Buddhist and Taoist masters discussing the Dharma in person!"
The servant stepped back and sent the order.
After a while, Li Shimin called another servant and said, "Go and inform Lu Guogong about the situation of Buddhism and Taoism tomorrow, and let Lu Guogong find a way to inform Li Daochang."
It's been more than half a month, and I don't know if he's okay.
I, want to see him.
......
Nothing to do today, go to the bar to listen to the music, bah!Dongshi divination.
Not long after, Xia Houqing, a special messenger from Lu Guogong's mansion, came to the stall and told Li Xiang the news that the Longhu Mountain Highway would go to Huasheng Temple to discuss the law tomorrow.
Li Xiang remained calm, nodded and replied that he knew, but secretly pumped his fist in his heart to congratulate!
Immortal Chi Jingzi is amazing, sure enough, I have invited a master of Taoism to challenge Huasheng Temple, I will definitely go to see the excitement tomorrow!
On the second day of October, Li Xiang came to Huasheng Temple unhurriedly. Seeing Cheng Yaojin waving at him, he walked towards him.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin dragged him away and came to Li Shimin's seat.
Li Shimin said with a smile on his face, "National teacher, how are you doing?"
Li Xiang was a little embarrassed to get off the stage, snorted coldly, ignored Li Shimin, turned around and walked a few steps, found a chair far away from him and sat down.
Li Shimin winked at Cheng Yaojin, and Cheng Yaojin immediately understood Li Shimin's meaning, walked slowly behind Li Xiang's chair, gave a smirk, and suddenly picked up Li Xianglian's chair with him, took a few strides, and moved Li Xiang put it next to Li Shimin.
Li Xiang glared angrily at Cheng Yaojin, a traitor with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and seeing that he couldn't escape, he could only salute Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was about to talk to Li Xiang, but Li Xiang hurriedly pointed to the high platform in the courtyard and said, "They have started discussing the law!"
Li Shimin had no choice but to shut up angrily.
Zhang Heng, the contemporary celestial master of Longhu Mountain, picked up the matter first, and said to him first: "Master Abbot, the poor Taoist heard that Master Avalokitesvara once manifested his holiness in your courtyard and passed on Mahayana Buddhism. I don't know how much the essence of Buddhism has been acquired by Abbot? Can you tell me about it? Listen!"
The abbot shook his head and said: "The poor monk is not enlightened enough to understand the Dafa, so Xuanzang traveled westward and took the Tripitaka to explain the Dafa!"
Zhang Hengdao: "The road to the west is dark and long, and it is unknown whether Master Xuanzang can obtain the scriptures."
The abbot retorted: "The west is the holy land of bliss. Xuanzang is blessed by immortals and Buddhas. How can he not get the scriptures?"
Zhang Heng said with a smile: "I heard that Master Xuanzang is only twenty years old, what cultivation level he has, and what kind of spells he knows? I think he is just a person who sits and meditates in meditation. How can he conquer demons and obtain the scriptures all the way?"
The abbot said: "Practicing meritorious deeds and meditating is the basis for entering concentration; generosity and kindness are the foundation of practice. If you are too clever, you will know that everything is ineffective; if you are good at planning, you must let go. Do it yourself."
The abbot said again: "If the cloud gathers yin to nourish yang, it is a fallacy to be sincere. It is a false statement to take bait and live a long life. As long as the dust and dust are always abandoned, everything will be empty. If you are pure and pure and have no love, you will naturally live forever. "
Li Shimin was confused and asked Li Xiangdao: "Master, what does the monk mean?"
Li Xiang glanced at Li Shimin, and said: "The previous paragraph said that one should meditate and do meritorious deeds in practice, do more good deeds and accumulate virtue, don't care about everything, and keep oneself pure. The latter paragraph is what the monk said to you."
Li Shimin asked: "You told me? What do you mean?"
Li Xiang sneered and said: "Monk, I tell you, don't believe in Taoism's method of harvesting yin and nourishing yang, refining alchemy and convincing qi. Those are all fake, and you can't live a long life. Only the Buddhist way of cutting off your heart's desires, and being more simple-minded, you will naturally get better." Can live long."
Zhang Heng laughed again and said: "Abbot, I haven't mentioned you yet, but you arranged for me to come to Taoism! You must know that I am a cultivator of immortality, and I am strong and beautiful; , gather the essence of the sun and the moon. Yin and Yang are transported to form alchemy, and water and fire are used to congeal the fetus. On the second and eighth, the yin disappears, as if in a trance; on the third and ninth, the yang grows, as if it is in a trance. Medicines should be taken at four o'clock to nourish nine Turn to practice alchemy. Cross the green luan and ascend to the purple mansion; ride a white crane and go to Yaojing. See the splendor of the sky, and show the hospitality of the wonderful way. Compared with your quiet meditation Buddhism, you can eliminate the yin god and nirvana. , and not out of the mundane world! Among the three religions, the highest grade is the highest, and since ancient times, only the Tao has been honored!"
Li Shimin asked: "Master, what does this Taoist mean?"
Li Xiang glanced at Li Shimin with disgust, and said: "What Zhang Daochang means is that Taoists like us pay attention to refining the body and refining the spirit, collecting the aura of heaven and earth, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, collecting medicines according to the seasons to refine elixirs, and taking elixirs. Afterwards, you can get immortality, which is much stronger than the kind of spiritual detachment that Buddhism seeks, leaving behind the body!"
Li Shimin asked again: "In the opinion of the national teacher, which of the two opinions is better?"
Li Xiang shook his head and said: "It's not very good, each has its own side."
Li Shimin asked again, but Li Xiang stopped talking because he was out of food.
Zhang Heng and the old monk spat at each other all morning, boasting about how they are, and ginseng facing the rooster. This place is not good, and no one can convince anyone. They all blushed, wishing to perform a full martial arts.
The emperor gave them lunch and let the two of them rest for a while before arguing in the afternoon, but he went to coax the sweetheart, the national teacher.
However, when you saw that Tang Seng couldn't walk, now that Tang Seng is gone, you want me to change my mind?no way!
In the afternoon, the two masters rested, and their respective disciples stepped forward, but there were too many things to do, and they couldn't convince each other.
When it was time to apply, Zhang Heng and the abbot monk had enough rest, and went up to debate again.
After arguing a few words, the anger that had not subsided in the morning rose again. Now in front of the Tang Emperor, it is almost a dispute between state religions, and no one is willing to give in.
Zhang Heng pulled out his Dharma sword and shouted: "On the law, on how to tell the difference! Old monk, you have to do something today to know which is better!"
The old monk waved his tin stick, and shouted back: "A monk should not stir up unknown karma, but now it's a legal dispute, and I can't let the old monk keep his hand! Come, come, I'm afraid you, a little Taoist, will fail!"
Zhang Heng stepped on the seven-star step, burned the talisman in his hand, and protected the thunder in his palm, and went straight to Guang's forehead.
The monks lunge to stabilize their roots, the cassock protects the Dharma body, and there is even a tin Zen staff, which will hit your ass directly.
The two played ping-pong-pong, but there was still no winner.
Annoyed, Zhang Heng took out a talisman from his bosom, used his true energy to hook it up and burned it, and shouted: "Liu Ding Liu Jia, a four-value meritorious service, help me defend against the enemy!"
The monk was right, lifted his cassock, took a sharp breath, and uttered the voice of the dragon: "Guardian Jialan, five directions to reveal the truth, please come and subdue the demon!"
Li Xiang was overjoyed when he saw this, and when he looked at the time, it was two quarters!
Li Shimin was handling official business in the study, and the servant came in to report: "Your Majesty, a few Taoist priests have come from outside the imperial city, claiming to be from the Longhu Mountain True Immortal Temple.
