You won’t be afraid if you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well and cultivate immortality

Musk and Wuchen had a hearty duel, and then took the young monk from Lingyin Temple to visit Fengyun Sect with great interest.

In the past, most of the young monk Wuchen would follow his uncle in the temple to discuss Zen in other temples. In the young monk's mind, it was almost like a quarrel. He liked to go along and lecture on Buddhism to rich people. Not only did he have a lot of delicious food , you can also see many different worldly fireworks. The abbot master often told him that the female benefactors at the foot of the mountain are all tigers, but every time he went down the mountain and saw the tigers mentioned by these masters, he felt a sense of intimacy. Could it be that he was his Buddha? Not enough luck? I'll probably figure it out when I can burn out the relic one day.

Immortal cultivating sects are different from Buddhism. Immortal cultivating sects usually believe in Taoism, which emphasizes cultivating immortals to achieve immortality and magical powers, focusing on one practice. Buddhist temples, on the other hand, believe in Buddhism, emphasizing karma, reincarnation, and compassion. They aim to cultivate the mind. If you have a perfect state of mind, you can leap thousands of miles. It is somewhat different from the Confucian idea of ​​understanding. They all cultivate the mind. Therefore, monks always give people the impression that they are a little fat. After eating, they go to a shady place to meditate and begin to realize Zen. As long as they don't snore, who can tell whether they fall asleep or truly realize Zen, or both.

The little Wuchen monk who looked around curiously walked inside from the martial arts arena. Of course, Musk didn't know which places he could go to, so he just took those places he couldn't go with him.

No, these two people are like monkeys in the zoo. They are looked at curiously by people wherever they go, especially the little bald man wearing a cassock, with red lips and white teeth. Make a Buddha mudra and salute. "Amitabha!"

He was surrounded by people all the way, feeling a little better than Lingyin Temple. There were also many tiger donors smiling at him. At this moment, Wuchen could not help but subconsciously straighten his cassock and straighten his waist. Rod followed Musk and saw a lot of wonderful sights. Especially the ground under his feet was completely different from that in the temple. There were formations and some kind of restrictions in many places.

How could a young monk with little experience know so much? The main focus of the Immortal Cultivation Sect is to cultivate the body, and the methods of cultivation are all kinds of strange. What they pursue is to improve their own cultivation, so that they can cultivate immortality, or to achieve physical perfection by changing themselves, and pay attention to one Tao. The law is natural. The practice methods in Buddhist temples mainly include meditation, chanting the Buddha's name, observing precepts, giving alms, etc. The pursuit is to escape the cycle of life and death and reach the state of Nirvana. Eminent monks with perfect merits can burn relics after passing away. This is what these people do. The highest pursuit.

The two walked on their legs for a long distance and arrived at the Hall of Things. The place was quickly filled with people, who were all curiously looking at these two strange combinations.

When Musk directly took out the core disciple token, he immediately alerted the steward inside. Not to mention that the man looked familiar, and he quickly dispersed the crowd of spectators and brought the two of them into the inner hall.

The class representative said: Cultivation sects usually have a strict hierarchy. Disciples are divided into outer disciples, inner disciples, core disciples, true disciples, etc. The higher the status, the richer the cultivation resources. Buddhist temples are organized into monastic groups, and the status of a monk mainly depends on the degree of disciplinary practice rather than birth or status. Of course, the two also have something in common, that is, they both share the concept of ranking based on seniority.

Musk immediately dug out, and a large number of Inner Sect, Core Disciple Tokens, and Elder Tokens appeared on the table, which shocked the steward. He suppressed his heart that jumped out of his throat and asked carefully. I know he is here to collect his salary.

No wonder the elders said something a few months ago that someone would hold a large number of identity tokens to receive monthly salary and just pay it directly. It turned out to be this junior brother!

But adding up the resources for cultivating immortals that these people can receive with their identity tokens, I thought, this is a huge amount of resources, especially the honorary elder’s monthly salary is scary, so I’d better collect them together in half a year, and wait for the amount to be collected. Even Musk was shocked when he saw that these thirty people had more resources for cultivation than for making a fortune.

After collecting his salary, he took the young monk Wuchen to the cave assigned to Master Lu, which again amazed the young monk who had never seen the world.

Only then did the young monk realize that it was no wonder that the cultivation sites of these immortal sects had to find some inaccessible mountains and ridges to dig caves and build sect Taoist temples. The main reason was to have a quiet environment and abundant spiritual energy, which was conducive to practice. Unlike temples, a place of practice only needs to build temples, pagodas, and meditation halls, and does not pay much attention to the purity and tranquility of the surrounding environment.

In addition to hanging a few portraits, the Immortal Cultivation Sect does not have as many golden Buddhas and Bodhisattvas as in temples, so you can practice by digging a few caves and practice casually. Unlike the Buddha, there are no temples, except for a small number of ascetics. , none of them are feasible.

Looking around this cave, although no one lives in it, it is always cleaned and spotless. The lush spiritual plants in the reclaimed spiritual field are well taken care of. They have obviously been taken care of carefully. This must be the result of the three uncles and nephews. alley.

He looked around hastily with the little monk who looked like a curious baby. The next step was to go back. First, he tricked this little monk who became more and more pleasing to his eyes. By then, he could borrow thousands of dollars from Lingyin Temple without spending a single coin. Monk soldiers, it’s very pleasant to think about it.

As for how to trick these monks into sending troops to help, Musk has already made plans. This time, the painting book is specially tailored for these monks who talk about Amitabha every day, including "The Legend of Shaolin Temple". This will force these temples to let monks come out to help, and let the world know whether the indestructible body brought by the legendary golden bell and iron cloth shirt is as powerful as the world says. I hope it is not false propaganda. .

He came in a hurry with Wuchen, and left in a hurry, driving a speeding car directly out of the sect. The meaning of showing off was very obvious, which made these sect disciples envious.

The road is long, and even speeding is not a panacea. Anyway, if you are not in a hurry, just follow the rules. When you are tired, you will dig a cave to rest. When you are hungry, you will find a place to bake something to eat. Musk is eating barbecue, and the little monk Wuchen is sniffing at the side. Enjoy the fragrant barbecue and eat the soft steamed buns or steamed buns.

From time to time, Musk provokes: "After the wine and meat pass through the intestines, the Buddha remains in the heart, Amitabha."

"Ma Donor, monks don't tell lies. If you don't eat meat, you won't eat it." The young monk Wuchen sniffed the fragrant barbecue and said the righteous truth.

"Yes, yes, yes, monks don't lie. Your color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and ordinary people like me want sex when we have free time." Musk rolled his eyes and pulled a piece of grilled spiritual meat that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside and threw it into his mouth. Enjoy the delicious food and reward your internal organs.

"Amitabha, the donor, Buddha once said: form is emptiness, emptiness is form." This sentence means that everything in the world is illusory and has no real entity. The colors, shapes and substances we see are all illusions created by our senses and minds. Therefore, we should not be obsessed with external appearances, but should transcend these illusions and pursue inner peace and liberation.

Musk couldn't help but frowned after hearing what the little monk Wuchen said. He stopped what he was doing, thought for a while, and then said: "Little monk, you are right, and what the Buddha said is also right. However, I think this does not mean that we should completely deny the external world. .After all, we live in this world and need to perceive and understand it through our senses. If we completely deny the external appearance, how can we understand and grasp this world?"

The young monk Wuchen smiled slightly and replied: "Donor Ma, what the Buddha said about 'form is emptiness' does not mean that we completely deny the external world, but that we should transcend external appearances and see the essence of things. Only when Only when we can transcend appearances and see the true nature of things can we truly understand the world.”

Musk nodded in understanding. He continued to tear off the barbecue and enjoy the food, while thinking about the words of the little monk Wuchen. The dispute between Buddhism and Taoism has been going on for a long time. He realized that their understandings of practice were different, but they both pursued a realm beyond appearances or a breakthrough in planes. Whether it is a breakthrough in merit or a method of absorbing materials to supplement self-cultivation, we actually hope to transcend the constraints of heaven and explore deeper and higher planes.
