Chapter 993

For a long time, Xuanzang asked, "Mr. an, do you think What is Dharma? "

Hearing this question, Anyang was also shocked. Staring at Xuanzang, who was very beautiful in front of him, he seemed to see a man who was too good at thinking and lost in knowledge.

He knew that Xuanzang had been completely shaken.

This is a good thing for him, because history has also proved that the original Mahayana Buddhism is not mature, and an immature religion does great harm to society. Whether Xuanzang is a chess piece of Buddha or wants to preach spontaneously, he is the key to the prosperity of Mahayana Buddhism! If we can talk about him, we can change the teachings of Mahayana Buddhism and even prevent it from spreading.

For Xuanzang, he has already stepped into confusion. If he doesn't go out, he will probably be ruined in his life! If we can get out of the confusion, it will be a new doctrine, or a new reason to meet him.

So Anyang thought a little and asked, "the master has read the history of Mahayana Buddhism?"

"Mahayana Buddhism rose in Tianzhu, where the Buddha once lived, and its representative works are sutras such as" Da Ban Ruo Jing "," Hua Yan Jing "," Miao FA Lian Hua Jing " Xuanzang bowed his head and joined hands.

"About history, that's all?"

"That's all." Xuanzang was embarrassed. "Master didn't tell me anything else about the history of Mahayana."

"Oh!" Anyang made a meaningful sound.

Even the historical ups and downs of Mahayana Buddhism and the current situation have not been mentioned to him, so he was asked to learn the Sutra and preach the Dharma. I don't know whether to lament those people's deceptive means or to pity Xuanzang.

"Ask Mr. an for advice." Xuanzang said.

"In terms of history, there is no need to talk about it. The rise of all major religions is similar. Let me tell you about the present situation of Mahayana Buddhism in India." Anyang took a sip of tea cup and said, "India has been divided for a long time, and now the Empire of abstaining from Japan has reunited in the north of India. Although the king of sun abstaining vigorously promoted Buddhism, he could not change the decline of Buddhism. If you go to Tianzhu now, you can see that at least half of the believers in Tianzhu do not believe in Buddhism, but in a sect called Brahmanism. "

"And it is in this case that Mahayana and Mahayana of Buddhism are still fighting fiercely, just like enemies. Such division has seriously affected the development of Buddhism, but the development of Brahmanism has become more and more grand." Anyang chuckles, "Brahmin has no real God, but you also know that whether God really exists or not is not so important for the religion of this era. Anyway, they don't often appear. If you believe it, it will exist. If you don't believe it, it will not."

"Maybe it's the heaven's suppression of Lingshan Buddhism. If you carefully observe the situation in the world, you can find that although the Buddha used many means, it was difficult to effectively convey and implement. In other words, even if he has all kinds of magic power, he can't change the decline of Tianzhu Buddhism under the control of heaven! "

"Buddha said that the future of Buddhism is in the East."

"Now, in order to keep the position, Buddhism has been learning from Brahmanism in many ways! That is to say, you are learning a religious doctrine created by mortals for the omnipotent Buddha. What a pity! But it's not wise to do so. As long as heaven keeps suppressing Buddhism, Buddhism will quit Tianzhu within 200 years. At that time, you should ask Buddha how it feels to be driven out of the house by a mortal sect! "

"And his last move is the East! The last piece is you! " Anyang's eyes slightly coagulated, "he has understood that he is about to lose his home, if there is no faith in the soil, Buddhism will disappear completely, so he aimed at the East, the origin of the heaven!"

"It's a fight between doctrines, a fight between religion and belief, a fight between God and Buddha. You're just a chess piece!"

“……”

Xuanzang was silent.

He found that although he could not distinguish the right from wrong in Anyang's words, he did not know why and chose to believe.

At this time, I heard Anyang say, "you should think, why is the boundless power of Buddha, but still can't stop believers from changing their faith? Why is Mahayana so profound that it cannot compete with Brahmanism in people's hearts? "

Xuanzang was silent for a longer time.

Anyang sighed again: "even if you go to Tianzhu, the Mahayana Buddhism you see is also a Mahayana Buddhism mixed with Brahmanism. It is different from the original Buddhism and the original Mahayana doctrine."

"Even if you are determined to pursue the Dharma, it should not be the current Dharma, the Dharma of Tianzhu, or even the Dharma that even the Brahmanism in the Buddha's mouth cannot compete with! The "Dharma" you should pursue should be a Dharma that can truly work for the welfare of all beings, follow the laws of the world, eliminate all the mistakes and injustices in the world, and leave the right and perfect rules. Such a Dharma is called "Mahayana"

"How to get the Dharma you said?" Xuanzang finally made a sound.

"It's a bigger, bigger galaxy. You need to think for yourself. You're a good thinker. You can do it." Anyang said, "for example, you can see that pig demons and monkey demons do harm to countless people. You don't want to hurt their lives, but you want to use truth, kindness and beauty to influence them and make them realize their mistakes. It's very good and kind.""But you didn't think about it. Even if you have influenced them, and let them be good and stop killing, they will kill countless people after all, but you can't influence the world after all!" Anyang taps his finger on the table and makes a rhythmic sound. "The consequence is that people all over the world know that killing someone won't pay for their lives. If you can't influence and punish them, they can also put down their psychological burden. From then on, they can live a light and relaxed life, which is more blissful than before killing!"

"What will it bring?"

"This will reduce the cost of killing people. Since then, people have no scruples about harming people. Anyway, there are Buddhism, but also you to influence them and relieve their psychological burden! The probability of crime will rise in a straight line until you turn the whole world into truth, goodness and beauty! "

“……”

The three spent the afternoon talking here.

Of course, it's usually Xuanzang and Anyang talking, while Duan Xiaoxiao yawns and doesn't leave.

Anyang stayed in Chang'an for a few more days, instilled a lot of knowledge into Xuanzang, and then was ready to leave.

Xuanzang bowed his head and said, "I will still go to Tianzhu and meet the Mahayana Buddhism and Brahmanism in Mr. an's mouth. If it is true as Mr. an said, then I will be easy to think and strive to bring a correct and perfect doctrine to all people in the world!"
