Vol 9 Chapter 273: Buddha

Cha Bucai stood in the big cave and looked at Zhao Hai’s cave house quietly. He would come here every day to see when Zhao Hai left the customs. Today he found that Zhao Hai seemed to have not yet left the customs. As I was about to leave, I heard Zhao Hai’s voice saying: "Junior Brother Cha is here? How about please come in for a cup of tea?"
Cha Bucai was taken aback, then he looked at Zhao Hai’s door to the cave and saw Zhao Haizheng standing there looking at him with a smile on his face. Cha Bucai was taken aback for a moment, and then he hurriedly walked over to Zhao Hai. Armed his fists and said, "Brother is out?"
  Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Yes, I have already left the customs, please come in."
Cha Bucai smiled and said, "That's great, brother please." After saying that, he followed Zhao Hai and walked to his cave house. In the living room, Zhao Hai made tea, Cha Bucai and Zhao Hai After drinking a cup of tea, Cha Bucai said to Zhao Hai, "How do you feel, brother?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said: "Very good, this time I retreat, and I have figured out a lot of things. As long as I have been repaired for a period of time, my strength should be improved at one time, and I can almost reach the He Dao state by then." Anyway, they didn't know if Cha Bucai, when did he promote himself to the Void Returning Realm, so he allowed himself to be promoted to the He Dao Realm now, which is also a good thing.
When Cha Bucai heard what Zhao Hai said, he couldn't help but said with envious expression: "Congratulations, brother, not everyone can reach the He Dao state, I don't know when will he reach the He Dao state." Cha Bucai It was at the Practicing God level now, not even the Return to Void Realm, so he really envied Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "Cultivation practice sometimes depends on luck. If you are lucky, if a certain thing gives you an insight, your training speed will increase very quickly, so you don’t have to. in a hurry."
When Cha Bucai heard what Zhao Hai said, he couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "Many people understand this truth, but there are a lot of people who can't reach the realm of harmony in their lives. Alas, let’s not talk about it, brother, Take a good rest for a few days. Whenever your senior wants to go out and go around, just call me directly, and I will live in the cave outside."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Okay, then thank you brother first." After saying that, he also greeted Cha Bucai and joined the priest, and Cha Bucai hurriedly returned the gift. At the same time, he suddenly noticed that Zhao Hai is a monk. , But Zhao Hai’s previous behavior style was very different from that of ordinary monks, which made Cha Bucai a little puzzled.
  Zhao Hai saw the puzzled look on Cha Bucai’s face, he couldn't help but smiled and said, "Junior Brother, do you have anything to ask?"
Cha Bucai looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother, forgive me, brother, I don’t know why. I talked to my brother before, but I always forget that my brother is a monk. My brother’s behavior is different from many monks, but I don’t know why?" Cha Bucai asked that, one is because he is really curious, and the other is because he wants to talk to Zhao Hai more, and like this, he said to Zhao Hai, the relationship between the two is naturally Slowly zoomed in.
Zhao Hai couldn’t help saying that when he heard Cha, he couldn’t help but smiled slightly:
Hahahaha, this is what the younger brother said. There is nothing curious about this. My understanding of Buddhism is different from that of ordinary monks, so that’s why. Brothers will feel this way. Other monks generally think of themselves as a monk, always remembering the clear rules and precepts, and always remembering their own identity, but I am different. The Buddha may not want you. Refuge, but you want to be happy, clear rules, or precepts. If these don’t make you happy, then it’s not what the Buddha wants to see. The Buddha teaches the Dharma to others. Did it really set so many things in the beginning? Rules? Those rules were set by later monks, not by the Buddha."
Cha Bucai listened to Zhao Hai's words, but he was a little surprised. After a while, he said, "That's it, that's the way it is. No wonder the brotherhood behaves like this. The younger brother has been taught. To be honest, I have been in touch before. Some monks, but those monks are completely different from the brothers, but I feel that the Buddha you mentioned, brother, is the real Buddha. It is completely different from the Buddha they understand."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "The Buddha is not in the temple, the Buddha is in our hearts, and each of us has a Buddha in his heart, but many people can't see it. The Buddha in their hearts is blocked by the desires of the secular world. They can’t see the existence of the Buddha. When you remove the thing that is blocking your eyes, you can see the Buddha. When you see the Buddha, then you have Buddha nature. When you have Buddha nature, you are a monk and you are a Buddha."
Cha Bucai nodded, and then looked at Zhao Haidao: "Senior brother said so, to the point that it is somewhat similar to the Buddhist precepts. According to legend, there are two eminent monks who talked about the Dharma. One said, the body is like a bodhi tree and the heart is like a mirror. Wiping diligently from time to time, not to cause dust, but another high monk said that Bodhi had no tree, nor did the mirror stand. There was nothing in the first place, and where did you get the dust? This seems to be similar to what the brother said, but depending on the meaning of the brother, The brother seems to agree more with what the first monk said, but literally speaking, it seems that the realm of the second monk is higher, but I don’t know if this is the case?"
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "The younger brother said something reasonable, but he also took the matter a little bit off. The two verses spoken by these two monks actually did not say one thing, so they are actually What cannot be compared together is that what the first monk said is the method of cultivating the Buddha, while what the second monk said is the ultimate state of the Buddhist school, and it can even be said to be the most ideal state of the Buddha. The person is completely different."
   Cha Bucai heard Zhao Hai say this, he couldn't help but look solemn, and then he bowed his hand at Zhao Hai: "I would like to listen to the teachings of senior brother."
Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "I dare not be, I dare not be, but I can also tell my younger brother about my understanding of these two verses. The first verse refers to how to cultivate Buddha, and the body is like a bodhi tree. It refers to everyone, in fact, the body has the root of wisdom. As I said before, everyone has a Buddha in their heart. The Bodhi tree is generally associated with the Buddha, so the body is like a Bodhi tree, which means, Everyone has a Buddha in his heart. The heart is like a mirror platform. The mirror platform generally refers to the human nature and mind. Only when your heart is like a mirror platform can you truly see the Buddha in your heart. Try diligently from time to time, don’t let the dust get off the ground, so it’s telling you that you have to keep your original mind, like a mirror, so that you can truly understand your mind and let the Buddha in your heart stay in your heart. , As long as this Buddha resides in your heart, you are a Buddha, but there is too much dust in this world, greed, hatred, ignorance, these thoughts, all the time, become dust, fascinating your mind, let your The original mind is stained with dust, so that you can't see the Buddha in your heart, so you have to try frequently."
Cha Bucai nodded again and again, and Zhao Hai went on to say at this moment: "As for what the second monk said, Bodhi has no trees, and there is no platform in the mirror. There is nothing in the first place. Where can the dust be caused? The four sentences actually need to be put together to understand, because these four sentences actually only talk about the final state of the Buddhist school, and that is emptiness!"
Having said this, Zhao Hai lightly sighed and said: "The Buddhism emphasizes that the five aggregates are empty, so that all suffering can be saved, but there can be a few people who can really achieve nothing, let alone people. It is the Buddha, and can everything be emptied? If the Buddha has really achieved emptiness, then think about it, will the Buddha still save people? If everything is emptied, then the person is in the Buddha In his eyes, it’s just empty, why bother to save? So, the second monk is talking about the ideal state of the Buddha, and this ideal state is almost never possible. You use a Ideally, compare it with a way of practice. How does this compare? Therefore, we have to practice with the words of the first monk, and take the words of the second monk as the ultimate goal."
  After listening to Zhao Hai's words, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. Then he held a fist at Zhao Hai and said, "I have been taught, thank you brother."
  Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said: "This is just some of the simple opinions of poor monks. Even monks, everyone has a different understanding of the Buddha, so you don't have to talk about it with others."
Cha Bucai responded. Zhao Hai asked Chabucai to drink tea. Chabucai was not polite. He drank another cup of tea. Then Chabucai said with a sigh: "Chatting with brother is really beneficial to me. A lot, it seems that you will have to disturb the seniors more in the future." At this point, Cha Bucai looked at Zhao Hai, and the two laughed at the same time, naturally feeling closer.
Cha Bucai drank tea for a while, and then left. After seeing Cha Bucai, Zhao Hai returned to the room to rest. Cha Bucai went directly to see Elder Wu at this time. He had to report this matter to Elder Wu. Anyway, if Elder Wu asked him to monitor Zhao Hai, he had to report to Elder Wu.
  Cha Bucai soon went outside Elder Wu’s Dongfu, and then reported: "Disciples Chabucai, please see the elder."
Elder Wu’s voice came from the cave house: "Come in." Cha Bucai responded. Then he entered the room and entered the room. As soon as he saw Elder Wu, Cha Bucai immediately bowed to Elder Wu. : "See the elders."
Elder Wu took a look at Check Bucai, then nodded and said, "Exempt, come here this time, but what's the matter? The monk has left the customs?" Elder Wu also knows that Zhao Hai is in retreat, so he just nodded. So ask.
Cha Bucai replied: "Yes, elder, Brother Zhiming has already left the customs, and the disciple just came from him today, and he drank a cup of tea from him." He didn't dare to hide it. Because he was very clear, once he concealed it and was discovered by Elder Wu, he would face a very serious punishment, so of course he dare not conceal anything.
Elder Wu took a look at Check Bucai, and then said: "What did you say to him? Tell me carefully." Elder Wu still attaches great importance to Zhao Hai. He has met Zhao Hai, despite Zhao Hai's strength. He could tell at a glance, but he always felt that there was something on Zhao Hai that he couldn't see through. It was because of this feeling that he paid more attention to Zhao Hai, so he sent someone to monitor Zhao. Hai, now he wants Cha Bucai to talk carefully about what Zhao Hai said to him, he must understand Zhao Hai better.
