Vol 4 Chapter 2409: Buddha's Upper Body Theory of Cause and Effect

When Kumarajiva said this, he said in a deep voice: "This time he broke the precepts since Lao Na. Although there was an unintentional mistake by His Majesty, Lao Na did not notice for a while. The Buddha is the consciousness to eliminate karma. Since Kucha City broke the precept 30 years ago, he has no longer thought of becoming a Buddha. If you can swallow this bowl of iron needles like Lao Na, then Lao Na will never be better. Ask about your violation of and precepts. Pick lotus flowers in the stinky mud, but don’t call them stinky mud when you pick lotus flowers.
As he said, he lifted a purple golden bowl in front of him, and swallowed it with his head up, and swallowed dozens of thin iron needles in the bowl, without a single one left!
Everyone was stunned, and the first disciples jumped up directly, crying to them forward: "Master, Master, all the disciples have harmed you!"
Even Yao Xing's face changed drastically, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't speak. Before the pot of iron needles was put on the stage, Jia Fu also used these needles to pierce the fruits in public. At that time, everyone didn't know why, but No one would have thought that Kumarajiva would swallow it in public like this. Yao Shao next to Yao Xing muttered to himself: "He just wants to commit suicide, so he can be more comfortable. These ten thousand needles pierced the internal organs. The way of death is too painful."
Qi Nan laughed: "These Buddhist monks are different from ordinary people. I heard that the more physical suffering they suffer, the more spiritual relief they will be able to suffer. In order to cultivate a righteous fruit, I think that the great master has violated the precepts and created karma this time. I am afraid that I will not go to the west and see the Buddha. So I simply use this extreme pain to eliminate the karma."
Yao Xing slowed down and said in a deep voice, "Qi Pu shot, this is a Buddhist resort. In front of the Buddha, you can't talk nonsense."
Qi Nan hooked the corner of his mouth disapprovingly: "According to the decree, it’s just that this time your majesty has led me to wait, saying that it is the decree of a great country teacher. If he goes to the west, then the decree... "
Yao Xing gritted his teeth: "Is it true that the Great Master would rather die than follow my orders? Is it because you have spent so much time to fight back at me in the end?"
Tao Yuanming's voice slowly sounded: "Your Majesty will calm down for the time being. I heard that great virtues and monks often have magical protections, and extraordinary people can hurt them with swords and axes. The great masters swallow the needles in public, probably not for death, but to show Mana, to frighten the many disciples who are not strong in the law, otherwise, why did you say those things just now?"
Yao Xing’s face looked at the stage together with his officials, and in the smoke, he saw Kumarajiva’s eyes closed, his face was solemn, he was chanting words, the beads in his hand often turned, and there were many people in the audience. The disciples seemed to have realized something. They all sat back on their seats, Heshi chanting, the whole square, sandalwood curls, the sound of chanting mantras seemed to have some magic power in everyone’s ears. As it reverberated, gradually everyone entered a state of peace.
I don’t know how long it took. Kumarajiva still closed his eyes tightly, but his whole body was shining and his face changed. It turned out to be a big circle. There was a vague appearance of the Tathagata Buddha above the Great Hall, and his voice changed. He made a tune, vigorous and heavy, with a kind of supreme majesty, as if it came from the distant western world: "I am the Tathagata from the West, and I am summoned by my disciple Kumarajiva. Suffering, make a special word to the Great Qin Heavenly King."
Yao Xing quickly got out of his seat and bowed to Kumarajiva: "Qin Emperor Yao Xing, thank Tathagata Buddha for coming. There is no decision yet. I would like to ask the Buddha's decree to solve the confusion in my heart."
Kumarajiva nodded, his face gleaming with gold, and his voice sounded like Hong Zhong: "I know what your majesty asked for. The ambassador of the Jin Kingdom came and asked for the land of the twelve counties of Nanyang to make the Qin and Jin good. The national sword soldier, your majesty deliberately accomplishes it, and he is afraid to give up the ground, and cause the soldiers and subjects who have won the battle to dissatisfy, right?"
Yao Xing smiled with joy and nodded repeatedly: "The Buddha's magical powers are vast, and I don't know anything. My worries are here. I am afraid that the two countries will rise up swordsmen and the souls will be charred, and the land will be afraid of the and sacrificed soldiers. It’s hard to convince the crowd, so I still ask the Buddha for advice."
Kumarajiva looked around and said in a deep voice: "At present, China is in troubled times. The nations are fighting against each other. The people are suffering. It is not what God wants. The Yao family, Daqin, originally belonged to the Qiang tribe, has been oppressed and discriminated for generations, accumulating achievements. , Fang achieved hegemony during the two generations of kings. At that time, Yao Qiang, the leader of Yao Qiang, used benevolence and righteousness to rescue the refugees in troubled times. The world returned to his heart and laid a good fortune for the younger generation. Although he was defeated and died, his blessing The two generations of Hui, Yao Chang and His Majesty, have had the foundation of today’s Qin State. It can be said that the predecessors have inherited the causes, and the future generations have also gained results.
This made Yao Xing and many of his courtiers nod their heads, and Yao Xing said loudly: "The Buddha's words are extremely true. The uncle's kindness has been praised so far, but today Da Qin is all enemies on all sides, especially by Hu Xia’s Helian. So why is this:"
Kumarajiva shook his head: "Although Ling Bo has great virtues to the world~EbookFREE.me~, my father is kind and revenge. When he wins the country, he uses fierce methods to kill people and slaughter the city. For his ex-Qin Tianwang Fu Jian, this was all evil. In the past, he lied to surrender and killed all the soldiers and civilians in the city and angered the heavens. All of this is the karma of the year."
Yao Xing gritted his teeth, and the ministers behind him were also embarrassed. They only listened to Yao Xingkang's voice: "Although the first emperor has many problems, they are all in order to calm the world as soon as possible. Although Fu Jian has the name of benevolence, the first emperor assisted him in those days. , But he didn’t ask right and wrong, only because Aiko died in battle, he would kill the first emperor, and then he would oppose the first emperor. This is non-causal, is it a simple black-and-white judgment of right and wrong? Besides, Fu Jian also attacked and killed his uncle. The first emperor killed him last in order to avenge his elder brother. It is understandable."
Tao Yuanming also followed up and said: "Buddha, Fu Jian raised the army of the country, wanted to destroy me and promote the world, and finally defeated and died. It is also a karma, and it cannot be said that it is the fault of the innate king. According to the Buddhist saying , Yao Tianwang is to eliminate the karma for him on behalf of God."
Kumarajiva smiled slightly: "Everything has cause and effect. Yao Xiang contributed to the world, in exchange for Yao Chang's final fruit in Guanzhong, but he avenged his grievances, and his methods were fierce, and he died in the end. Yao Xing, do you know why there was Is Helen a boon?"
Yao Xing was surprised: "I asked myself that I had never done anything I am sorry for Helian Boss. His whole clan was slaughtered and I took him in. Could it be that his rebellion was also my karma?"
