Chapter 10 Pinch the monkey and smile

A saint said that the weather was extraordinary. All the gods and immortals heard that there were traveling day and night to inform the news. The two gods secretly told me that the naked eye of the Hanguguan Pavilion only saw the door closed and there was no one around. However, the saint's Dharma eyes saw the fairy light rising, auspicious clouds gathered, and all kinds of wonderful appearances of the sky were incredible.

There were about eighteen gods who were stationed in the sky, but the Six Dings and Six Jias gods set up a hall in all directions to guard the door, and the Four-minded Gongcao guarded the window. The powerful ghost king of the Heavenly Palace came late. He saw a small hall, but was wrapped by the gods in all directions.

He slapped his thigh and shouted, "That night, God is so unaware of it. I gave him ten years of incense. I only asked him to secretly tell me when the saint created the sutras, so that he could get a bargain. He fooled me like this!" He cursed, "Laojun descended to earth and transformed into a saint. How great is this? These six Dings and six Jias are greedy for credit, but they have not obtained the imperial edict and used the excuse to protect them secretly. Who doesn't know that the green bull under Laojun Li is brave and brave. He is not ruthless in killing them 120. Why do they need to protect them?"

He also scolded the four-level Gongcao as an official and was lazy when performing his duties. He used his position to get oil and water, but he came quickly. All gods in the sky don’t have any wretched faces, and they dared to come and listen secretly without a position. As he cursed, he saw that the auspicious clouds in the sky were steady and the gods were still moving in all directions. He just thought that he could not hear his scolding. No one left in shame and gave him a seat.

Before the god left, a black slim dog trotted and secretly lay under the steps. The powerful ghost king looked familiar. Although the gods in the four directions were just taking the name to listen, but with them here, which wild animals from the mountains came to roam? Even the roar of insects stopped in the four directions. Such a big slim dog, Liuding and Liujia pretended not to see it!

I don’t know which immortal family is leaving. The powerful ghost king was just envious. Another tit flew quietly and stopped outside the window.

The powerful ghost king was ungrateful and blurted out: "Is that the True Lord Erlang Xiansheng?"

As soon as he said that, he knew it was not good. Sure enough, Liu Ding and Liu Jia were all despised, and the four-value Gong Cao disappeared. The tit just looked back at it, but it called the Great Ghost King sweating like a slurry. The two fighting, the Great Ghost King thought that the gods in all directions would react, but they just pretended that they didn't hear it. The Ghost King cursed secretly: "What a cunning god general!"

The powerful ghost king knew that he had offended the True Lord Xiansheng, so he was reluctant to leave, so he had to become as small as an insect and secretly lie under the crack of the door.

In the museum, Lao Dan held Chen Ang Meng to transform into the world, as small as mustard seeds. The saint pondered for a moment, and his left hand was only a little far away in the void. The jade light turned into a roundness, forming a three-foot square pond. The mustard seed world was infinitely small and infinitely vast. It fell in the middle of the water mirror square pond, but it took root and sprouted, plucked branches and leaves, and even created several trembling buds, which instantly grew into a cute lotus like jade.

This scene did not scare Wukong and Yi Xi, but made the gods in all directions stunned. Wukong had not practiced for a long time and did not know that the sky was high and the earth was thick. Even if Taiqing Zhenren opened up the world in front of him, he might not have scared that Chen Ang and Taiqing had joined forces to do this just now? However, he was ignorant of common sense, so he did not think it was different. The gods and immortals in all directions saw that the wind, earth, water and fire in the world held by Taiqing were all destroyed. To plant the lotus, the lotus is true, and the world is also true. The lotus has two more aspects, one is the real lotus, and the other is the Pure Land, hidden in the bud, infinite Buddha nature, three thousand Buddhas, eight hundred arhats, and even a Tathagata Buddha all sit upright in the center of the lotus.

The Tathagata of the Lingshan Mountain in the West was preaching the Dharma Assembly, but he paused and interrupted the sound of preaching the sutra. He looked up and saw that the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss was like a lotus that had not bloomed. His eyes were through the lotus, but outside the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, two infinite and vast Taiqing and Chen Ang looked at each other and smiled.

The Tathagata interrupted the preaching, but surprised the Bodhisattvas. The Tathagata smiled with flowers, and the golden brahma flowers bloomed brightly. All the Buddhas were silent when they heard the lecture, only the Venerable Kashyapa smiled with a smile.

In the hall, Chen Ang spoke, "Just just now, Sakyamuni picked up the flower and laughed. The Buddhas did not understand the meaning, but Kashyapa understood the gods and suddenly realized my Mahayana Buddhism. I wonder what you understand?"

Wukong said: "Just just now, the ancestor was born in the world with one thought. Now Laojun transformed the world into a lotus with one thought, but he saw that the five aggregates are empty in nature. The ancestor created the world with cause and condition, all dharmas are dependent origination, and all things and phenomena depend on the conditions of "I". Because I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have no reason, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have no reason, I have destroyed this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have this, I have no reason, I have destroyed this, I have this, I have a cause, and all dharmas exist because of me. Those who do not wait for all causes and live independently are self-nature. All dharmas are empty, only my own nature. Therefore, form is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from form; form is emptiness, emptiness is form. Feeling, thinking, action and consciousness are also like this."

Wukong's words were complicated, but the gods could understand it. He said that emptiness is emptiness, that is, emptiness of one's nature. The original intention was that Chen Ang had ignorance and transformed into the world. Everything in the world was created by cause and condition, and it was created by Chen Ang's consciousness. The existence of the ideal mind cannot exist independently without Chen Ang's relationship and conditions. That is, if Chen Ang cannot feel it, nothing exists.

Therefore, all attributes (color) that belong to material nature come from the various feelings (feelings) of the six consciousnesses, various cognitions (thinkings), conscious activities (actions), and various consciousnesses themselves (consciousness), all belong to the emptiness of the nature, that is, they cannot exist independently without relationships and conditions.

Chen Ang shook his head and said, "This is Hinayana Buddhism. There is no self outside the mind. Everything is only ignorance of the mind, and it is not the Mahayana Buddhism I want to talk about. I ask you, is the Lingshan world in the flowers true or false?"

Wukong said boldly: "I have come from the countryside and I don't know much about it. The Lingshan world is far away in the Pure Land of the West. How can it be among the ancestors' flowers? It is naturally fake."

"Is that right?" Chen Ang pushed Wukong into the lotus. Wukong felt his body lightening, but fell into an extremely vast world. It fell from the sky and saw countless Buddha lights rising from the bottom from afar. A big Buddha sat upright on the lotus platform. When he saw the Buddha, Wukong was so scared that he screamed. He knew without asking that this was the Buddha's lord of the Western Lingshan Tathagata.

Tathagata spread his palm and took it in his hand. Wukong only made the monkey's head squeak. Suddenly, a Buddha realized that the Buddha picked up a flower and looked at Kashyapa and laughed at each other. This was a profound meaning. Now, what is the meaning of pinching a monkey? So three thousand Buddhas and eight hundred arhats lowered their heads and thought hard.

There was a tiger-suffering Arhat, who shouted: "Submit the mind and pinch the horse. The Buddha told me to pinch the mind and the mind and that mind and the mind are in my hand."

So I sat upright and realized the wonderful truth.

There was also a long-eared Buddha who said to himself: "The Buddha picked up flowers, Kashyapa laughed. Now he is pinching monkeys, why don't I scream?" Then he imitated the monkey's head and squeaked.

The Buddha of the World Honored One held Wukong in his hand, and then said to the Buddhas from all directions: "Laojun is traveling west and is now discussing the Tao with the saints at Hangu Pass. They are just joking with me." Then he threw Wukong back and said: "Subduing the tiger, the light of concentration does not understand the Dharma, he is ignorant and troubled, his practice has not been determined, and his merits and practices are regressing..."

In front of the Tathagata's seat, the second disciple Jin Chanzi was extremely intelligent and knew the cause and effect before and after. Seeing that the Buddha forced himself to hide himself, he was cunning by nature and secretly covered his mouth and smiled. The Tathagata's eyes looked at it with real eyes and said, "Jin Chanzi? Why are you laughing?"

Jin Chanzi hurriedly and said, "The Buddha just picked up flowers. I was slow to live. Now I understand the Dharma, so I laughed."

"You don't listen to the teachings of me, and you lightly insult me, and you laughed in the hall with contempt. There are also long-eared Dingguang Buddha, who speaks the words of animals, and the arhat who subdues the tiger and does not understand my intentions. Therefore, you three of you are deprecated to be reborn in the East Land, and the Duhu is reborn in the three worlds, and Dingguang is reborn in the six worlds, and the Golden Cicada son is reborn in the ten years. He cannot return without great achievements!"

Tathagata issued a decree, and his guardian Jialan dragged three people to practice the Dharma.

Another thing is that after Wukong was thrown out of the lotus, he looked frightened and shouted: "It's true! It's true! It's so that the ancestors know that I fell into the Lingshan Mountain in the Flower and was held in the hands of the Tathagata. I saw it really clearly. The world in the Flower is the Pure Land. The Tathagata who sits upright in the center is also the Tathagata. There is a Pure Land hidden in this lotus!"

After hearing what Wukong said, the green bull man looked shocked, and Yi was not sure of the reason. The Six Dings and Six Jias and Four-Captain Gongcao was even more shocked. The five sides of the roof, pressed on the roof, listened, and each shouted: "Impossible!"

They turned into five strange lights and drilled into the lotus. Sure enough, they saw the vast Pure Land under their feet, their faces were no one looking, their hands and feet were trembling. They were so scared that they flew out of the lotus and ran towards the sky. They reported to the Jade Emperor: "The disaster is a disaster! The disaster is a disaster! The Great Heavenly Lord, the Laojun and the Wuliang Heavenly Lord discussed the Tao and put the Western Pure Land into the lotus. If it caused dissatisfaction from the Buddha, led the Western soldiers to invade our borders, and lost the friendship between the two families, wouldn't it be a huge disaster?"
