Chapter 473



473 Mahayana Buddhism (3)

If he displayed enough value to make the Emperor think that he was a talent, he might have a good future after the court examinations.

“You do have some intelligence.”

At this moment, she heard her father Wang zhenwen’s faint comment.

Miss Wang smiled.

It felt great! Xu niannian sat on the chair, feeling extremely satisfied. There was nothing more satisfying than scolding people.

The interlude had ended, but the battle continued. The hearts of the people outside the arena were still heavy.

…………

Under the Bodhi tree, Xu Qi ‘an and the old monk sat opposite each other and discussed Dao. He nodded his head and said, “Grandmaster’s words were extremely true, making people suddenly see the light.

He was also thinking about how to break through the third stage.

Buddhism was indeed sinister. There was no question for this round, which meant that the Buddhist sect had the right to explain. Would the monks let him lose?

The answer was no.

How to break out of this situation? After careful consideration, Xu Qi ‘an had two ideas.First, convince others with reason. Second, convince others with reason.

In my current state, I can’t make a second strike. Even if my Qi is restored, there’s no more … It was impossible to cut through the barrier.

The old monk in front of him was the obsession of the Wen Yin Bodhisattva before he achieved enlightenment. Therefore, the first person to convince others with reason had to be thought carefully.

The second way to convince others was to use all means other than ‘physics’ to deal with the old monk.

After dealing with him, this obstacle would be solved.

I definitely can’t win against him when it comes to Buddhism. The old monk is the obsession of Wen Yin Bodhisattva, and he’s not someone a little monk like jingsi can compare to. He’s the only one who can fool me, not me … How can I deal with him?”

Xu Qi ‘an pretended to listen to the Scriptures while thinking of a solution.

“Master, you said that you are the obsession of Wen Yin Bodhisattva, what is it?” Xu Qi ‘an suddenly asked.

“The Supreme realm of Buddha!” The old monk replied.

The highest realm of Buddha … Such a profound question from the start. I still wanted to start from the aspect of obsession, but it seems impossible … Wait, let’s listen to what he has to say first, and then combine it with my knowledge as a keyboard man to see if there’s any room for manipulation!

“What is the highest realm of Buddha?” Xu Qi ‘an asked.

The old monk was silent for a long time,”I don’t know, but wenyin thinks it’s Buddha.” So he cut me out, and from then on, my Buddha heart was free of mortal filth and I became a Bodhisattva.”

Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an fell silent. He knew nothing about the Buddhas of this world, but he knew something about the Buddhism of his previous life. However, there was a great difference between the Buddhism of his previous life and that of this world.

The most obvious point was that there was no Gautama Buddha in this world. There was only one Buddha.

“Why is the Supreme realm of Buddha the Buddha? Aren’t the other Buddhas Buddhas?” Xu Qi ‘an said with a frown.

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered a detail. In the Buddhist system, there were second grade Arhat, first grade Bodhisattva, and above that were the higher grade Buddhas.

There were no other Buddhas.

The old monk replied, ” Buddhism has Arhat and Bodhisattva. Only Buddha has the Supreme position. Therefore, the Buddha was the Supreme realm of Buddha, a unique existence. Buddha is Buddha, there is only one of him.”

“Arhats and bodhisattvas may be able to obtain the Supreme fruit position.” Xu Qi ‘an said.

The old monk glanced at him and shook his head. you’re not a Buddhist. It’s inevitable that you don’t understand the fruit flavor.

Xu Qi ‘an put his hands together and said, “”Please enlighten me, master.”

Master, please let me learn more about Buddhism.

“Almsgiver, do you know why a Bodhisattva is a Bodhisattva and why an Arhat is an Arhat? The fourth grade of Buddhism was known as the ‘ascetic monk’.

“Great wishes are closely related to the fruit position. Those who make great wishes will obtain the fruit position of Bodhisattva. The one who wished to obtain the Arhat fruit position would obtain it, and the Arhat fruit position was also divided into three grades. They were killing thief, buhuan, and Arhat.

“Once a fruit is formed, it can not be changed and can not be advanced.”

Xu Qi ‘an was stunned and didn’t speak for a long time. There was too much information in these words, and it took him a few minutes to digest it.

so Bodhisattva and Arhat are essentially unrelated. They’re both ascetics who advanced to the fourth stage … Wait a minute, what comes after the fourth stage is the second or first stage, what about the third stage of the Vajra realm?”

Skipping the third level from the fourth level and achieving the Arhat or Bodhisattva level … Doesn’t this mean that third-grade Vajra realm belongs to a different Buddhist system?”

An idea flashed in Xu Qi ‘an’s mind, and he had a corresponding guess.An eighth grade martial monk-third grade Vajra!

“F * ck, a rank-8 jumping straight to rank-3? The Buddhist system was too strange. It was not a step-by-step promotion at all.

Xu Qi ‘an reviewed the Buddhist system and instantly figured out many things.

Among the nine grades of Buddhism, an eighth grade monk was equivalent to a third grade Vajra realm. It was no wonder that master Heng Yuan was only an eighth grade monk despite his powerful combat strength. It was because he was a third grade Vajra realm martial monk.

In addition, it was no wonder that the second grade was Arhat, the first grade was Bodhisattva, and the Buddha was a transcendent grade. The reason for the name was that once the fruit rank was determined, it could not be changed.

Therefore, the Buddhism in this world was not like that of his previous life, where there were a bunch of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. There was only one Buddha in this world:Buddha.

There was only one Buddha in the world … Holy shit, isn’t this the Hinayana Dharma?

I’ve thought of a way to break out of this!

Xu Qi ‘an stood up slowly and stared straight at the old monk. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly and then widened, from a smile to laughter, from laughter to wild laughter.

“Hahaha …”

He laughed so hard that his body swayed back and forth. He laughed so wildly and wantonly.

“What is he laughing at? Have you gone crazy?”

The crowd looked up at Xu Qi ‘an, who was laughing wildly under the Bodhi tree.
