The Lion's Roar Assembly in Tianyuan was strange in every way!
This was because after Zhenyan Bodhisattva spoke for two hours, Jia Xing Bodhisattva would only say one line! However, his line went straight to the core. It was simple and clear, plain and true!
In short, it was very down-to-earth!
Zhenyan Bodhisattva was full of mystery. This was originally the secret of Buddha's preaching. How could it be understood by the audience below? If they understood it, what was the point of having a master? Therefore, the Buddha lions like the indigo lions could at least understand 30% to 40% of the story, while the others who had a bit of a Buddha's heart could only understand 10% to 20%. As for those who came to make a show of the story, they could only understand one or two sentences.
However, Jia Xing Bodhisattva's line could be understood by all the lions. It was simple and contained the supreme Buddha's truth. It didn't make people feel that it was crude, and it made people feel even more unfathomable!
After a long time, even the usually rough pride of lions could see that the two senior monks in charge seemed to be competing.
They didn't feel that there was anything special about it, or that there was something wrong. Instead, they became energetic!
This was the nature of the ferocious lions. They were born to fight and fight for everything. Therefore, they didn't really accept a slow and peaceful preaching of Buddha!
Now, it was very good. The two monks had a knot in their hearts and wanted to see who was better. This was what they liked to see! They were willing to add bricks and tiles to it. Yes, add oil and vinegar, and fan the flames!
The preaching of Buddha usually took a few days, but this time, it was a little rushed. The monks of the main world were eccentric. Monk Tian Ze wanted to enter the debate stage directly, and the audience naturally wanted to see the liveliness of the battle of words. With everyone's cooperation, the preaching of Buddha couldn't continue, and it quickly entered the debate stage.
If there was a debate, there must be a reason. Of course, the lions below would ask questions, and the senior monks above would explain. The same Buddha's truth, but different directions would naturally have different answers.
"May I ask, how to become a Buddha?" A red lion shook its head and wagged its tail.
"The Buddha's heart is like the void. He gives up everything and doesn't covet anything he does. If you can know your own heart, you can train your thoughts. If you don't stop, you will see your Buddha nature. " The Incantation was concise and comprehensive, and he also understood a little. If he said too much, these animals might not understand, and it would be a waste of effort but a waste of effort, so he also started to be concise.
"If you want to learn Buddhism, you have to be a man of steel. If you touch the heart, you will be judged. Go straight for the supreme Bodhi. Don't care about anything!" Jia Xing still said smoothly.
"Excuse me, can one judge a book by its cover? For example, the green lion is more like it, but I, the white lion, don't have the fate of Buddha? "A white lion did not forget to sow discord even now.
"True Buddhists observe their own hearts and understand Buddha within, and do not seek the outside. Mindfulness of formlessness, mindfulness of inaction, that is to learn Buddhism! "Zhen Yan was still very capable, and his understanding of Buddhism was very deep.
"On the naked flesh, everyone has the ancient Buddhist style. Vairocana, Vairocana, Patriarch Bowed His Nose everywhere. "Monk Jia Xing was still glib.
"How do we talk about killing?" A black lion shouted.
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. Take the other person's life and fall into hell! "Zhen Yan's answer was the standard answer of Buddhism, and it was a little hypocritical. Of course, Daoists would also answer like this.
"Sending someone to reincarnate, my hand has a lingering fragrance. This life is difficult, so I will enjoy it alone!" Monk Jia Xing's answer was becoming more and more excessive, starting to deviate from the roots of Buddhism. However, one had to say that it suited the appetite of the lions.
Zhen Yan could not take it anymore, "Junior Brother! If you speak so bluntly, you will destroy the thousands of years of teachings of Heaven's Choice!
The Buddhism of the main world is becoming more and more extreme, and there is no trace of the compassion of Buddha!
If you continue to speak nonsense, don't blame me for punishing you on behalf of Buddha! "
"You can't argue with reason, and you can't argue with Buddha. Since Senior Brother wants to argue with Junior Brother, how should we argue?
We have already argued in literature, and only martial arguments are left. Protecting Buddha and protecting the sect is our responsibility. Since Senior Brother has suggested it, then let's do it! "
The lions below cheered loudly. This was something to see! What was the use of just talking? Getting started was the real deal!
Among them, only the three green lions vaguely felt uneasy, but they did not know where the uneasiness came from. They, the green lions, were the most unwilling to see two eminent monks arguing at the Lion Roar Meeting. This was a failure as a master. Of course, the other lions were mostly just watching the fun.
However, the current situation seemed to be a bit difficult to get off! The two eminent monks were not giving way, and the crowd of onlookers were making a ruckus. What else could they do to completely eliminate this dispute?
It seemed that it was not clear who started the dispute. Zhen Yan had been aggressive, and Jia Xing had been giving tit for tat. Neither of them was innocent.
Qing Xiang asked, "Big Brother, what should we do? We can't really let the eminent monks fight at the Buddhist meeting, right? It's easy to say, but it doesn't sound good! If this starts and becomes a habit, how can the Lion Roar Meeting be held in the future? "
Qing Zong also said, "Why don't we, as the masters, find an excuse to separate them?"
Qing Xiang was in a difficult position, "Masters? When are we masters in front of Buddhist disciples? Our face is very limited! Besides, what excuse should we find? Our three mouths are not enough for one of them to spit at us! "
Qing Gang stopped their quarrel. After all, he was the big brother, and he had experience and intelligence. He quickly came up with a compromise plan.
"We can't let them fight directly! As the saying goes, if you ride a tiger, it's hard to get off. They are all Bodhisattvas of Buddhism. They will never be weak in front of us lion clan. They can only fight harder and harder, and in the end, they can't be stopped!
We need to find a medium to separate them! It's also good to have a way out! "
Qing Zong moved his lion brain, "Medium? Where can we find it? There are only us lion clan here. Who would be willing? They don't agree with each other internally, so they want us lion clan to work hard? "
Qing Xiang's brain worked faster, "Big Brother, do you mean we should take this opportunity to solve some problems in Tianyuan? For example, between us and the White Lion clan? "
Qing Gang nodded, "Third Brother's brain works fast! That's right!
Think about that White Lion clan. Ever since we, the Green Lion clan, took over the Tianyuan territory, they have been unconvinced. They don't follow Buddhism and don't want to be educated. They are always against us, thinking about how to restore their glory in Tianyuan! In my opinion, why don't we take this opportunity, with all the lions as witnesses, and borrow the hands of the eminent monk to get rid of them!
The lion clan shouldn't kill each other, at least on the surface. If we really do it, it might cause the other lion clans to have a common enemy. But if the human eminent monk makes a move, and it's a battle to prove Buddhism that everyone wants to see, even if something happens, no one will blame our Green Lion clan! "
The other two green lions nodded, calling it a brilliant plan!
Qing Zong asked, "Then, which side do we choose to stand on?"
