Reborn Turtle: Picked Up By Monkey King at the Beginning
Chapter 73: Buddhism is Tao
Lin Fang knew very well how hard Brother Monkey had put in to become a direct disciple of the Patriarch.
He reads books day and night.
For a restless monkey, it is simply a torment.
But Brother Monkey endured it. It was not that he was born with humanity and etiquette, but he knew very well that if he wanted to become a direct disciple of the patriarch, and if he wanted to return with the Law of Longevity, he had to seize every opportunity.
He worked hard to become stronger and studied hard.
Just for today.
Lin Fang's brain heated up again, and he wanted to help Brother Monkey out of the siege.
But such a high-end, high-end topic, how did he get involved with a little tortoise?
Lin Fang was also lost in thought.
Finally, it really made him think of a way to break the game.
Although he didn't know anything about these lofty knowledge, he had read a lot of novels in his previous life, including many fantasy novels, and the author has expounded his understanding of Tao.
He can carry it directly.
Although many truths are superficial, they cannot be said to be wrong.
It happened that Lin Fang knew a book that could explain the problems of Patriarch Bodhi with a sword.
"Master, can I talk about it?"
Lin Fang suddenly spoke.
The two people present were stunned for a moment, and then turned their heads at the same time.
Brother Monkey looked at Lin Fang with some doubts, and didn't quite understand what he wanted to do when he suddenly spoke.
But the eyes of Bodhi Patriarch had a little deep meaning.
"Then you can talk about it."
"Cough cough." Lin Fang cleared his throat, then looked at Patriarch Bodhi confidently, putting on an appearance of some kind of profound argument, don't want to be confident.
And his actions also made both of them serious.
Brother Monkey simply wanted to hear Lin Fang's thoughts.
The Patriarch Bodhi wanted to see what he wanted to do this time on the initiative.
Lin Fang is full of momentum.
"Master, the disciple thinks that Buddhism is the Tao."
A word, like a shocking stone, echoed in the ears of the two of them. Such boldness, forgetting the ancestors, and confusing the Buddhist and Taoist words, shocked both of them.
Although the ancestor of Bodhi was a fellow practitioner of Buddhism and Taoism.
But he has never made such a rebellious conclusion.
Lin Fang and Brother Hou both felt the anger of Bodhi Patriarch, and both of them were a little nervous.
Lin Fang felt a little regretful.
But he said nothing.
Brother Monkey has helped him so much, he always wants to help.
Today this incident is even a little bit of favor of repaying Brother Monkey.
Brother Monkey also worried about Lin Fang's safety.
Thinking of waiting for a while, if Patriarch does something out of anger, he must try his best to stop it, at least to keep Lin Fang safe.
But just when Patriarch Bodhi wanted to scold Lin Fang angrily.
It suddenly occurred to him that he still hadn't figured out the details of this little turtle.
Could it be, what is the meaning of his words?
So Bodhi Patriarch stubbornly suppressed the anger in his heart.
"Then you can talk about it in detail."
This sentence confuses the two of them again.
Didn't get angry?
Lin Fang widened his mung bean eyes and looked at Patriarch Bodhi with doubts. He couldn't figure out why he was so calm.
Even if you don't get angry, you shouldn't be so calm.
Seeing him in a daze, the Patriarch couldn't help but urged: "Tell me your opinion."
Lin Fang came back to his senses.
He hurriedly said: "In the words of Hui Patriarch, the young man thinks that Buddhism and Taoism have many similarities in doctrine, and they all lead people to good."
"But this doesn't mean that Buddha is the Tao."
Patriarch Bodhi then asked.
Now that Lin Fang has said it, he is no longer hiding it.
"What I said just now is just to express that there is interoperability between the two. The next words are the key."
"Patriarch, what do you think of the relationship between Buddhism and Taoism?"
This sentence stunned the Patriarch's question.
The headquarters of Buddhism is in Xiniuhezhou, while Taoism is in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
The two have always kept the well water in the river, and the relationship cannot be said to be good, but it is not much worse.
But Lin Fang's question must have his deep meaning.
What could it be?
Unconsciously, Patriarch Bodhi began to think in accordance with Lin Fang's thinking.
Then he suddenly thought of something.
Journey to the West!
Journey to the west is a great disaster, but it is also an important event for the prosperity of Buddhism. From then on, Buddhism can begin to preach in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
And this will inevitably conflict with Taoism.
In addition, when Buddhism was introduced to the East, the teachings of Taoism will be absorbed in order to better preach.
In this process, the localization of Buddhism is inevitable.
The Buddhism doctrines born from this are born out of Taoism, but retain some doctrines in Western Buddhism.
In this way, the Buddha is the Tao, and it makes sense.
this…
The ancestor of Bodhi thought of a lot in an instant.
He looked at Lin Fang with undisguised shock and fear in his eyes.
He didn't even see the matter clearly, but the little tortoise in front of him said the key to the matter in one mouthful.
Lin Fang once again refreshed the cognition of Bodhi Patriarch.
Even in his mind, he had placed Lin Fang at the same level as him.
Can see this thing clearly.
He knew that Lin Fang's identity was definitely not simple.
At the very least, it is a talented person who knows everything about the entire Westward Journey project.
There are not many such people now.
Even the participants, some of them are still kept in the dark, knowing nothing, still behaving as their own gods.
And more importantly, he suspected that Lin Fang deliberately told him this passage.
He is a fellow practitioner of Buddhism and Taoism.
This road, he has almost come to an end.
I don't know how long, he hasn't felt the feeling of improvement in his cultivation.
However, Lin Fang's words today gave him hope that if it is really like what Lin Fang said, Buddhism introduced to the East will eventually merge with Taoism and go out of its own way.
Then why can't he learn from it.
Stones from other hills, can learn.
Maybe the opportunity for his cultivation to be one step closer would fall on this.
In his current realm, every bit of progress is precious, let alone a breakthrough in cultivation.
The ancestor Bodhi figured this out, his eyes looked a little complicated at Lin Fang.
Although he is more wary of him.
But there was also some gratitude in his eyes.
Lin Fang and Brother Hou looked at the ancestor who hadn't spoken for a long time, neither of them knew what the ancestor was thinking.
But their hearts became nervous.
Could it be that the words just now stimulated the Patriarch? ?
This idea emerged in both of them.
But Lin Fang suddenly thought at this time that according to the records, Patriarch Bodhi still wanted to be a great fellow practitioner of Buddhism and Taoism. He said before him that Buddhism is a Taoist thing, isn't it a matter of death!
That's it!
Even if Brother Monkey spoke this time, he might not have saved me.
This is simply jumping in the minefield.
And it's still crazy, the one who thinks he has a long life!
