Party patriotism is just a joke, but Liu Yanzhi really went to the temple to seek the truth. He went to Ruohua Temple in the northern suburbs of the river, a Buddhist temple full of incense. From the gate of the mountain, visitors were like weaving, to the Great Hall of the Great Heroes, even more so. Shaking shoulders one after another, the huge incense burner was filled with incense, and the sound of monks chanting scriptures lingered in the ears.
There is a special place for fortune-telling and blessing in the temple. Liu Yan lined up for a long time and finally it was his turn, but he did not draw lots, but wanted to ask about reincarnation.
The fat monk looked at him, and said expressionlessly: "All worlds always arise and die, before and after, with and without, gathering and dispersing, thinking and thinking, cyclically, all kinds of choices are reincarnation."
"Master, I want to get a more precise and specific explanation. I know a person, and I suspect that her previous life was my wife..." Liu Yan said straightforwardly, for fear that the great monk would not understand, but the great monk's expression did not change. Invite a little novice monk and ask him to take Liu Yan straight to another place.
The little novice monk led Liu Yan straight into a courtyard with a sign "Tourists Don't Enter". This was the office area for monks, but it was not deserted. The meditation room was full of people, and they were all decent people.
"Donor, to listen to Master Xingkong's teachings, you have to sign on it." The little novice monk held a book of merit, which was filled with the name and the amount of donation, at least 3,000 yuan, and tens of thousands of more.
"I didn't bring so much money." Liu Yan touched his body, a little embarrassed.
"Swiping card is fine." The little novice took out the POS machine.
"Forget it, I'll go." Liu Yan felt that he had come to the wrong place, and fled in the contemptuous eyes of the little novice monk.
He didn't return by the same route, but climbed up the stairs and walked around in the office area. The Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Audi on the parking lot were probably the cars of the abbots. What is puzzling is that there is a color The bright beetle, I don't know if it is a nun or a monk's family.
Going further up is the former site of Ruohua Temple. The gate here is closed and not open to visitors. Ruohua Temple was a temple built during the Northern Wei Dynasty. It was burnt down several times and rebuilt several times. The last reconstruction was in 2010. The main hall is newly built, and here is a Qing Dynasty building with a history of 300 years.
Liu Yan went straight over the wall. The old Zen room was old, and the bluestone slabs on the floor were carved with traces of the vicissitudes of life. It was a pity that there lived a group of monks full of the smell of copper in such a quiet and elegant place. Liu Yanzhi couldn't help but smile. He was stupid. Actually went to the temple to seek the truth.
"The donor is so Yaxing." Suddenly someone called, Liu Yan turned his head and looked at him. He was a young man with big ears and a dignified face. He thought he was a monk here, so he explained, "I'll see and leave. "
The humanity said: "If you come, you will be safe, just look at it, I also came over the wall."
"Are you not a monk?"
"Actually I am a Rinpoche." The man stretched out his hand, "Just kidding, my surname is Hu, Hu Qingsong, I used to be a monk, but now I am still a vulgar, traveling all over the world, searching for the meaning of the universe. This is also a kind of practice."
"Why are you still vulgar?" Liu Yan asked with a straight smile, "Isn't it more suitable for spiritual practice in the temple?"
Hu Qingsong replied: "Then do you think the monks in this temple are practicing?"
Liu Yan shook his head straight.
"There is a Buddha in my heart, where is no practice." Hu Qingsong smiled freely.
Liu Yan directly shook hands with him, and the two of them traveled together, chatting and talking about reincarnation.
"Dharma is born, and when the law is extinguished, it is all due to the combination of causes and conditions that produce suffering. If there is no cause and condition, all sufferings will be eliminated. There is life and death." Hu Qingsong said, "This is what the Central Agama Sutra says. This sutra mainly talks about the reincarnation of newspapers. If you want to study this aspect, I suggest you read this sutra. ."
"So, do you believe in reincarnation?" Liu Yan said straight.
Hu Qingsong nodded: "The Dharma is boundless and it saves all sentient beings. All sentient beings in the world have karma due to their deeds of good and unwholesome karma. This karma has six places and is called the Six Paths. The Six Paths are the magnitude of the blessings received by the Buddha according to the karma. Divided. They are: heaven, asura, human, animal, hungry ghost, hell..."
"Excuse me, interrupt." Liu Yan was dizzy at hearing, and had to interject, "Asuras, hungry ghosts, not to mention, since you are a spiritual practitioner, do you know someone who can psychic?"
"Psychic? You mean the one that can see the soul?" Hu Qingsong thoughtfully, "There are many such people, most of them are fake, and some of them are real, usually after a serious illness. I think that our current level of science is not enough to explain many supernatural phenomena. I have to classify it as superstition and use religion to explain it. In fact, religion is also a kind of ignorant science. For example, the ancients discovered that sulphur, saltpeter and charcoal can synthesize gunpowder, but they can’t fully understand the molecular formula of these constituent materials only by mastering it. Can we explain the reincarnation of newspapers in Buddhism by science?"
Liu Yan was very interested: "Let’s talk, I’ll listen carefully."
Hu Qingsong said: "Buddha believers pay attention to accumulating virtue and doing good, and they will get good rewards in the future, but there are hundreds of millions of believers. Who will record the data of accumulating virtue and doing good? Buddha or Bodhisattva? This is almost impossible."
Liu Yan nodded straight.
Hu Qingsong continued to talk: "This problem was insoluble in ancient times, but with the advancement of science, it seems to be gradually realized. Just like the prophetic novel "1984", there will be a big brother in the future. Looking at you all the time, through scientific and technological means, ubiquitous surveillance cameras, personal terminals worn on people, and increasingly developed supercomputers, the development of networks and artificial intelligence has made it possible to store and calculate massive amounts of data. Every bit of people’s daily life is recorded and analyzed, and everyone is judged. There are many science fiction movies in the United States that have portrayed this kind of future. We might as well extend that human beings gain immortality and their bodies age and destroy, but consciousness Forever, the master will assign you to be a human or a beast based on your performance in this life."
Liu Yan's hair was terrified.
Hu Qingsong chuckled: "Of course, compared with the karma and cause and effect that Buddhism talks about, there is still a big gap in depth, breadth, completeness, and accuracy. This is just to allow you to understand some of Buddhism in a scientific way. Concept."
Liu Yan said straightforwardly: "I understand a little bit. Reincarnation means deleting files and playing again."
Hu Qingsong nodded: "Almost, I think you are struggling with this problem, maybe some kind of inconvenient adventure happened, I will introduce you to a person, this person is quite famous in Beijing, many leaders at the ministerial level Ask him for fortune-telling, you can try."
"Please speak." Liu Yan took out his mobile phone and prepared to record.
"This person's surname is Hu, nicknamed Hu Banxian. It is said that he is really a half immortal. The dragon does not see the beginning and the end. It is not easy to find him. He opened a shop outside the Lama Temple in Beijing. I will give you the address."
Liu Yanzhi suddenly thought that the last time he traveled to 1900, he had met a blind man who was a fortune-telling man. He seemed to have a surname Hu. Could it be that he had a mysterious relationship with Hu Banxian, and it was impossible to think about it. Blind Hu died for a hundred years Even if it is related, it is his descendant.
……
At the same time, Zhen Yue drove 400 kilometers to the countryside of Nantai County, accompanied by her grandmother and family nanny. In name, it was an old lady who came to seek medical advice, but Zhen Yue actually wanted to find out. In fact, she is a college student, a party member, and a complete atheist. However, there has been a crisis of faith recently and she is in a hurry to go to the doctor. She wants to find answers from the folk gods.
It was the mother and daughter of the commander of the Armed Police Corps. The Nantai County Armed Police Brigade did not know where they heard the news. They called Zhen Yue and said that the place is remote and it is difficult for outsiders to find them. They can help.
It’s better to respect their orders. Zhenyue accepted their kindness. At the gate of the Jinfan Hotel in the county seat, a Mitsubishi off-road vehicle with an Armed Police license and Zhenyue’s Land Rover rendezvous. The two people in and out of the car were dressed in casual clothes. The young one should be The older driver introduced himself as an instructor of the Armed Police Brigade, whose surname was Zhang.
An armed police off-road vehicle cleared the road ahead, and instructor Zhang got into Zhen Yue’s vehicle. He is a very witty and talkative person. When it comes to the goddess in the countryside of Kushuijing, everyone in Nantai knows about them. The goddess is over fifty. Originally an ordinary peasant woman, she had a serious illness a few years ago. Because she couldn't make up the medical expenses, she took home and waited to die, but she made a miraculous recovery~EbookFREE.me~ and after she recovered, she changed her personality and opened her eyes. It can cure all kinds of diseases, spread ten in one pass, and spread in ten, and now even the rich and famous from other provinces come here.
Instructor Zhang also told a true story: "A business boss in Nantai died of a sudden illness. The family took his passbook to the bank to withdraw money. Because they didn’t know the password, the bank refused to cash it, so they had no choice but to ask. The goddess went out, and her old man really called the boss' soul, asked for the password, and withdrew the money. We all know this in the county."
Zhen Yue said: "Such a god, aren't there many people looking for her, you need to make an appointment."
Instructor Zhang nodded, took out the cigarette case, and suddenly realized that it was in someone else’s car. He smiled awkwardly and put the cigarette case back in, saying: "The goddess usually doesn't see guests, because I'm really too busy, only very backed guests. , The goddess personally received it."
"What is a backing guest?" Zhen Yue asked.
"It was introduced by the county party committee and the county government and arranged by the county public prosecutors. This is the first echelon, followed by the rich and the big money. As for the general people who come to seek medical advice, they spend a few hundred dollars on the charms drawn by the goddess. I went home and burned soaked water to drink. I heard the effect was pretty good."
Zhen Yue smiled bitterly. She didn't believe that Fushui could cure diseases. 80% of them were psychological reasons.
Trainer Zhang lowered the window, sniffed the air, and said, "It's almost here."
There is a smell of Ching Ming Festival in the air.
