Chapter 162 finally got something
By asking the people next to the Potala Palace, Han Ankang learned that there is a famous Tibetan temple in this city. Its popularity is slightly less famous than the Potala Palace, but it is a place of holy temple recognized by local believers.
This temple is Dazhao Temple. In the memory of local people, it is also known as "Zulakang" and "Jeokang", and is also located in the capital of western Tibet. However, at present, with the changes in the city, its location has become the center of the old city.
Dazhao Temple is also a Tibetan Buddhist temple. According to the information, it was built in the 21st year of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty. It was built by Songtsen Gampo, the king of Western Tibetan at that time. The reason why this city is known as a "holy land" is also related to this temple.
The temple was originally called "Rasa", but later Rasa became the name of the city and evolved into the name of the current capital. After the completion of Dazhao Temple, it was repeatedly modified and expanded by the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and the scale had become very grand.
Han Ankang, who arrived here, saw the incense in front of Shen Temple, and the believers bowed devoutly, leaving deep marks of long heads on the bluestone floor in front of the door. Tens of thousands of butter lamps were bright, as if they had left traces of time and pilgrims.
From the first impression of this place alone, Han Ankang could realize that this place is the place where true Buddhist practitioners devote themselves to studying Buddhism. There is also a sign in front of the temple gate that will not be received by foreign guests.
Most believers who come here to kowtow also bow down outside the temple to pray for blessings. There seem to be two worlds in this temple and outside the temple. The believers and pedestrians outside seem to be deliberately slowing down when walking outside the temple.
When Han Ankang saw these, he also felt that the Buddhist charm in this temple was indeed much better than the Potala Palace I had visited before. And there were far more believers outside the temple than before.
Although the weather was extremely cold at this moment, these believers were still the same, beating their heads outside the temple. You can even see that many elderly people over 60 are shaking the flags in their hands and lying on the words.
All of this made Han Ankang feel that if he could find the footprints of a Buddhist practitioner, perhaps he could give him some answers. But he was also ready to return with hope and disappointment.
In order to avoid explanations with the monks guarding the gate, Han Ankang directly released his mental cultivation at the foundation-building peak and began to explore everything in this temple. As far as he knew, Buddhist practitioners also majored in mental cultivation.
As the mind enveloped the entire temple, Han Ankang could perceive everything inside. Even to some extent, it seemed clearer than when he walked inside in person. This is the magic of the mind cultivation!
Looking at the solemn monks in the temple, they were all sincerely worshiping Buddha and chanting scriptures. They did not notice Han Ankang's mental exploration at all. This means that these monks are very ordinary.
Just when Han Ankang felt that there was no Buddhist practitioner or person who cultivated the mind in such an ancient temple, his mind searched for a temple that looked very ancient, but an old monk suddenly opened his eyes.
Through mental perception, Han Ankang quickly discovered that this was an old monk who also broke through the innate realm of mind. His mental search seemed to be perceived by the other party. For a moment, his mental spirit stopped.
At this time, the monk who opened his eyes looked at the mind that was covering his own and others. He then said with a Buddhist ritual: "I wonder which venerable is coming? If the mind explores this temple, what does it mean?"
Venerable, Buddhist monks call people with Taoism. Han Ankang also knew that using mental detection is very impolite. If there is a stronger mental state, this mental detection will attract strong counterattack from the other party.
Listening to the other party's inquiry, Han Ankang felt a little embarrassed and quickly sent a voice through his mind: "Master, I'm really sorry. Taoist doctors have come to your temple to find a Buddhist relationship. If you have any rudeness, I hope the master will forgive you!"
Compared with Han Ankang's mental state, it is enough for him to pass the mental leaflet. The monk who broke through the innate realm of mind in front of him still couldn't do this. It can only be said that his mental cultivation is relatively sensitive.
The Buddhist and Taoist monk sitting in the meditation room could feel the strength of this detector from this almost lost mental sound transmission technique. The Taoist medical practitioner naturally seemed extremely surprised to the monk.
Especially when I heard from the voice that the other party seemed to be not old, the monk became more and more surprised. When was there such a strong medical practitioner in China who had a strong mental state and had a strong sense of mind and spirituality? What was the saying in searching for Buddhahood?
It is clear that such a super monk would not be able to stop him. The monk finally calmly said: "Even if you are a destined person, please come to Lao Na's meditation room. Don't disturb the monks in the temple. I believe the Venerable's strength can be achieved, right?"
You can see the old monk's every move from your mind, and Han Ankang quickly said, "I'll try to win over the master!"
After replying to these words, Han Ankang quickly found a place where no one was left and put on an invisibility decision. He quickly floated into the temple wall and entered the temple that idle people were forbidden to enter.
Even the place where Han Ankang went was a temple monastery that ordinary monks in Dazhao Temple could not enter. In the eyes of many monks, this was a place where Taoist monks lived and could not be disturbed casually.
When entering the backyard, Han Ankang could still feel that in addition to the eminent monk he perceived in the backyard, there were also several eminent monks who looked at the same mental state and reached the peak of acquired nature.
But their situation looks a bit like a closure and death. Of course, this is also regarded as a retreat and meditation in Buddhist practice. If you can break through, you can find the Buddha's fate. If you can't break through, you will sit in the secret room.
Even many times, monks sitting here either break through and walk out of the secret room, or sit and transform into these secret rooms forever. Only when the monks patrol the room in the backyard will they clean up the bones for the sitting and transformed person.
From Han Ankang's insights, he remembered the Nine-character Mantra of Buddhism. He also knew that these monks who were in vain had a strong intimidation. If they really encountered places like monsters and ghosts, their role was extremely powerful.
Nowadays, even in the Central Plains, there are probably not many old monks with profound Buddhist principles. From what Han Ankang learned, there are only two innate monks who have registered in the special affairs office.
Of course, Han Ankang, the monk from Dazhao Temple, has never heard of it. This means that at present, the special department of China has some understanding of the Buddhist monks in Western Tibetans and Western temples, which is not as good as those in inland temples.
After all, most of the masters like Buddhist practice pay attention to Buddhist theory. Generally speaking, as long as they don’t say it themselves, it will be difficult for others to expose their true strength. However, the monks in the Central Plains practice both martial arts and Zen.
When he came to this increasingly peaceful backyard, Han Ankang came directly outside the monk's room who felt his existence and sent a message: "Han has already been outside the door. I have disturbed him for many troubles. I hope the master will forgive me!"
When Han Ankang arrived, the monk who asked about his super inspiration was also shocked. Because he did not sense that anyone appeared outside the door. This means that the other party's strength is much stronger than him.
As soon as he waved his hand, the door of the house that had been closed for unknown periods was quietly opened. From this skill, Han Ankang also lit up and said, "Master, what a dragon-bound hand!"
Han Ankang still has some understanding of this kind of trick in ancient martial arts. The monk who can do this also means that the other party is probably practicing both Buddhist and martial arts. Of course, monks who have reached the innate realm are more than a hundred times stronger than ordinary warriors.
No matter what kind of exercises are practiced, the speech of all the ants under the innate world has existed throughout the ages. As long as the monks advance to the innate world, their energy and spirit are far from comparable to acquired martial artists.
With the praise, Han Ankang was as if he was not touching the dust, and he stepped into the door. An ancient etiquette unique to Taoist doctors was exemplified. The monk seemed to know a lot about this ancient etiquette and stood up to respond with Buddhist etiquette.
Looking at Han Ankang's young face and the calm atmosphere of a Taoist doctor, the monks can even feel the power of merit that Han Ankang has through the unique Buddhist power of Buddhism.
This merit power also shows that Han Ankang is a person who often accumulates virtue and does good deeds. If he had not accumulated virtue and does good deeds frequently, this merit power would not be so strong. This shows that the young man in front of him is still worthy of being able to be friends!
The monk who held the Buddhist ritual bent down and said, "The Buddhist disciple Boche has seen the Venerable. I don't know that the Venerable came to the temple and was in a farewell welcome. I hope the Venerable will forgive you."
Listening to the monk's words, Han Ankang smiled and said, "You are polite, Master, Han is just traveling to the world to pass by this place. Seeing the incense of the temple, he remembered the ancient Buddhist monks, hoping to see if there is any Buddhist practice.
Fortunately, you can still see the existence of the master here. I had previously conducted mental exploration, but I just didn’t want to disturb the secular people. If there was any disturbance to the master’s cultivation, Han apologizes here!”
In the world of monks, those with higher realms are respected. Even if the monk in front of him is much older than Han Ankang, he must give him enough respect to Han Ankang. Strength is respected, which is a recognized rule in the world of monks.
Having received such a reply from Han Ankang would give this monk enough face. If Han Ankang was willing, he could have asked the monk to lead all the monks to open the temple door and welcome the arrival of his master.
But this kind of high profile is not something Han Ankang likes. In his opinion, disturbing others' cultivation is a rude thing. If it alarms the entire temple, it will be a big event that can cause a sensation in Buddhism.
As expected, Han Ankang's modest attitude made the monk feel very good about him. For this monk, he was also very surprised when he suddenly heard the appearance of a Taoist medical practitioner.
