Vol 11 Chapter 1846: Buddhist mentorship bet

After hearing Xuanzang's words, the Tathagata Buddha couldn't help but frown. Is this Xuanzang so courageous? Even face-to-face saying that he is for the benefit!
"Xuan Zang, don't talk nonsense about some things!" Tathagata said coldly.
"Tathagata, some people said before that you don’t practice Mahayana Buddhism, but you want to enjoy Mahayana Buddhism exclusively and enhance your own strength. You don’t want all the creatures in this world to practice Mahayana Buddhism. If this is the case, everyone can do it. The threat to you is great, because you can no longer absorb most of the power of the Dharma. Is this true?"
Xuanzang looked at the Tathagata Buddha and continued to ask.
After hearing this, Tathagata frowned, and there was an angry look in his eyes, "Nonsense! Whose words are this?"
The Tathagata is indeed very angry, because this is completely false.
There are many reasons why Tathagata Buddha does not practice Mahayana Buddhism. One reason is that he is afraid of losing his current position. Of course, he is also afraid that his strength will be damaged. However, he never thought of enjoying Mahayana Buddhism exclusively and then absorbing it. The power of Dharma.
Because this is unrealistic, Mahayana Buddhism must be used by someone before it can absorb the great punishment. Of course, there cannot be too many people using it. Once there are too many, then the Tathagata Buddha cannot be controlled.
So in Lingshan, Tathagata will allow some people to practice Mahayana Buddhism, such as Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and Jin Chanzi and others.
He has always controlled a certain number of people who practice Mahayana Buddhism to maintain a certain level, and absolutely cannot increase, even if it is reduced by a large number, it cannot be increased.
"Venerable Tathagata, I also know that the rumor just now is false, but the lie has become a fact after a thousand times, so Venerable Tathagata must be careful. If this rumor continues to develop, it will definitely threaten him in the future. The location will also affect my Lingshan Buddhism,
I think that if I want to break this lie, it is to implement Mahayana Buddhism and let everyone in the Buddhism of the Three Realms practice Mahayana Buddhism. If other people want to practice, I Buddhism also agrees. "Xuan Zang continued to say to Tathagata.
"Xuan Zang, there are many reasons why poor monks don't practice Mahayana Buddhism. This can't be implemented casually. Don't talk nonsense here!" Tathagata said coldly.
Xuanzang smiled, "Venerable Tathagata, I also know that you have many reasons, but the implementation of Mahayana Buddhism is a top priority. If you delay this way, I really can’t imagine what the result will be. It is even harder to imagine whether our Lingshan Buddhist Sect can withstand such consequences."
Tathagata looked at Xuanzang coldly. He also knew that the suppression of Mahayana Buddhism would have a certain negative impact. For so many years, nothing big happened. It was completely suppressed by the powerful force of Tathagata, and Maitreya Buddha. Assist.
Failure to implement Mahayana Buddhism will not only affect Buddhism, but also affect the entire Three Realms.
Because this Mahayana Buddhism was originally ingested by the Buddhists from the Dao of Heaven, this is a method that the Dao of Heaven gave to the Three Realms, which can make the Three Realms run better and make the governance of the Three Realms more perfect.
Of course, due to some reasons, we have not promoted Mahayana Buddhism, so it is said that it has had a significant impact on the entire Three Realms. The Three Realms gradually embarked on the road of destruction, which has a certain connection with the failure to promote Mahayana Buddhism.
Tathagata knows this very well, but he can't do it because it will damage his fundamental interests, and many senior figures in Buddhism are unwilling to do it.
If only the two people of Buddhism Tathagata and Maitreya were opposed, then this Mahayana Buddhism would not be suppressed for so long.
In Lingshan, more than half of the people are opposed to the implementation of Mahayana Buddhism, because they are now practicing Hinayana Buddhism. Once Mahayana Buddhism is implemented, their fundamental interests will be affected.
Headed by Tathagata Buddha and Maitreya Buddha, this group of vested interests of Theravada Buddha, they absolutely do not allow the popularization of Mahayana Buddhism.
This is the superficial reason, and there are many deep-seated reasons. Now it is not convenient for the Tathagata to talk about it. Of course, this has something to do with himself.
"Xuan Zang, there are some things you don't understand. This is not something you can implement if you want to implement it. You don't want to talk about these things anymore." Tathagata warned Xuanzang.
Xuanzang: "Venerable Tathagata, I think I still have to implement it. This time I went to the West to obtain the Mahayana Buddhism, and then spread the Tang, spread the southern part of the continent, spread the world, spread the entire Three Realms."
"Then you have to know that you do this, but there is a worry of life!" Tathagata said coldly.
"The poor monk naturally understands the safety of this, but the poor monk is not afraid. It is like the road to the west that the poor monk knows. There are many difficulties, but the poor monk is still here. Therefore, Venerable Tathagata, this time the poor monk has set foot on it. After going westward, there is no reason to regret it. This time to go to the west, the poor monk can only move forward, but there is no reason to go backward!"
Xuanzang's eyes were full of firmness, and no one could question him.
The people around looked at this Xuanzang and listened to Xuanzang's words. They were a little surprised. No wonder he made the tenth grand aspiration for giving birth and then reincarnated. It seems that there is a huge difference between his philosophy and the Tathagata Buddha.
Even though Jin Chanzi has turned several times now, he still has a big divergence with the Tathagata Buddha.
The Tathagata Buddha and Jin Chanzi looked at each other, and the master and apprentice once again fell into a state of contradiction.
When he was in Lingshan Leiyin Temple, Jin Chanzi was like this, and he had a violent conflict with the Buddha.
This is still the case today.
After a while, Tathagata sighed slightly, "After so many years, you still have not changed. Since you are willing to implement your Mahayana Buddhism, then I will wait and see if you can go to Lingshan. Walk to Lingshan, can you take away the Mahayana Buddhism."
"Venerable Tathagata, if you say so, then the poor monk is willing to make a bet with you. This time the poor monk is going west to preach the Tao, let's see if the current situation in the Three Realms is suitable for Mahayana or Hinayana?" Xuanzang said lightly .
"Well, the poor monk will accept your bet, and he is born waiting for you at Lingshan Leiyin Temple. I hope you can come early." Tathagata also said lightly.
After the two sides had finished speaking, they stood there and looked at each other again, without speaking for a while.
The people around were silent from beginning to end. This is a matter for the master and apprentice. They are not easy to intervene and can only watch silently.
This master and apprentice really didn't accept anyone, especially Xuanzang, who gave people a young and energetic but calm feeling. ..
