Chapter 179 Zhang Daoran on Buddhism and Daoyue

Condensing smoke to form images, it is called Condensing smoke to form gods in the Taoist sect, and asking gods to form images. It is called "There is a Buddha in the heart and the Buddha appears in the world. This is only achieved by a master with profound Taoism and a wise state.

"I thought it was just a legend to become a god. Before, Zhenren Zhang asked the god to make an image, but now Xingming practices the Dharma again..." Zhang Daoquan sighed in his heart: "There are great scholars in Buddhism, and those with profound Buddhist teachings. Xingming is the master and uncle of Shaolin abbot, and it is not simple... If it were not for Zhenren Zhang, the Taoist sect would be worried."

Zhang Daoquan's spiritual vein has not been opened, and the Taoist Dharma is difficult to practice, and his vision is still there: "While practicing and preaching the Dharma clearly, although it is not as good as Zhang Zhenren's preaching that makes people sink into the state of ethereal and empty space, and it is difficult to witness the evolution of Taoist Dharma, it can make people's minds shake and bewildered..."

The original meaning of Taoism and Buddhism is different, some are compatible, and some are conflicting. Xingming sang Buddhist scriptures with his disciples. If he is not a practitioner, he would be addicted to it. As a practitioner, Zhang Daoquan felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhang Daoquan looked around and saw more than 300 people around him. Every practitioner frowned, as if he was feeling the truth, as if he was struggling with thoughts. At this moment, the conflict gradually emerged.

"Shichen said: I visited more than 200 famous mountains in the past. Once I arrived at the Qingzhen Cave of Jinling, it was the place where Master Ye Tian of Tang practiced the truth..." Buddhism confuses people's hearts, so I can only recite the Taoist scriptures by myself to relieve my depression. Zhang Daoquan's voice was not loud, but the people around me could hear it.

The paths that were originally influenced by the practice of enlightenment, under the prompt of Zhang Daoquan, found a way to resolve the problem and began to recite the Taoist scriptures.

The practitioners who recite the Taoist sutras spread around with Zhang Daoquan as the center. Gradually, every practitioner began to recite the Taoist sutras. More than 300 people recite the Taoist sutras were grand, far more than the more than a dozen people preaching and chanting Buddhist sutras.

Perhaps each Taoist sect has different Taoist sutras, and it is difficult to form a unity. The sounds of Xingming and disciples preaching still suppress the sounds of the Taoist preaching. The explanation of Buddhism is spread far away, and the chanting of scriptures is messy and close. It was originally influenced by the chanting of Buddhism and by the fellow disciples around me.

Among all the Taos, only Zhang Yifang and Cheng Yiyan were not affected. Master Fengchen and Master Lu Zhen were not affected. They entered the state of emptiness and brightness, and seemed to have gained a lot of gain in the operation of the martial arts.

Zhang Yifangcheng said that Lu Zhen and Taoist Master Feng Chen succeeded in enlightening the spirit and practiced Taoism quite well, so they were not affected by the practice of Xingming and chanting Buddhist scriptures. Lu Jing was originally a dual practice of Buddhism and Taoism, and at this time he smiled and listened seriously.

"The Taoist people are so beautiful that there are hundreds of people, but only four are Taoist." The old man in the suit in the corner swept over Zhang Yifang and the other four: "The achievements of that old Taoist can only stop here. The achievements of the three young Taoists and Kun Dao are limitless in the future. In time, they will be the mainstay of the Taoist sect. This time, they came here by chance, and everything they did is not worth it... just..."

The old man in suit had a bright light in his eyes, and his eyes fell on Xingming: "Please ask God to make an image, the realm is unstable. It seems that there is an opportunity to have today. The spiritual energy dantian nests, and the soul will not be achieved. The Taoist sect cultivates the body outside and the soul inside. This old monk has achieved today's achievements by chance. If the Buddhist practices relics, the relics will not achieve this life, so he can only stop here and be a great monk..."

"That little Taoist is a little weird..." His eyes fell on Zhang Daoran who was standing at the door of a Taoist house: "It is pleasing and misty, and the spiritual energy lingers. Having a certain level of cultivation, the old Taoist cannot see through..."

"Is this little Taoist priest interested in Buddhism?"

The old man in the suit's eyes were calm: "Buddha and Tao are all Taos, and Buddhas have made their debut in Taoism. They have another realm of cultivation, and Buddhas are also immortals. If you have wisdom to understand the original meaning, Taoism will have hope."

I don’t know how long it took, the chanting of Buddhism was slowly and light and unheard. The Buddha statues behind the body of Practice slowly dissipated, and all the paths were also liberated from the pain just now.

"Amitabha, thank you for the real person..."

Xingming suddenly stood up, folded his hands together, and gave a deep salute to Zhang Daoran who was standing in front of the bedroom door.

"Amitabha, thank you real person!"

Zhang Daoran listened carefully to Xingming's teachings without interrupting it. This is a kind of respect, Xingming is very grateful.

There were more than a dozen middle-aged and young monks behind Xingming who didn’t understand why, but they still followed behind to thank them.

At this time, the eyes of the Taoist Taoist also turned to Zhang Daoran, and some people felt relieved: "Fortunately, there is Zhenren Zhang..."

If you preach and chant Buddhist scriptures, you may be able to condense smoke and make images, but you do not have a profound realm and cannot immerse them in Buddhism. On the contrary, you will feel uncomfortable in your heart, and the conflict between Taoism and Buddhism.

Some Taoist cultivators were filled with disappointment: "Old monk Xingming, he has come to break up the venue, and he is here to challenge you, Zhenren Zhang. You, Zhenren Zhang, can still listen to Xingming's teachings quietly and chant Buddhist scriptures..."

Although I was dissatisfied, all the Taoists still stood up and bowed with their fists: "Greetings to Master Zhang!"

Zhang Daoran also bowed his fists and returned the greeting: "My fellow Taoists have invited me..."

Looking at Xingming Zhang Daoran's face was calm, without any sorrow or joy: "I preached, but I didn't expect that the Buddhist monks would come to support me. I never expected..."

"Don't everyone know it?"

Xingming smiled slightly and said secretly.

"A small Taoist practice is not worthy of attention. The Taoist method is vague, and I am just just starting out. The master's profound Buddhist teachings are profound, but I am still very impressed." Zhang Daoran said the truth, it is difficult to practice Taoism and to practice Buddhism. When he met so many monks, his cultivation is the highest level of Zhang Daoran saw: "Buddhist practices cause and effect, Taoist practices the way of heaven, Taoist practices, Buddhism practices the way of law. Taoist practices the way of law and Taoist coexist, and those who attain enlightenment are in the hearts of the people."

"Cultivating Taoism is for the Tao, and practicing Buddhism is for the Buddha. The original intention is to pursue transcendence and to prove immortality. The great way is different and the same way, and the final node is still the Tao."

Zhang Daoran is not opposed to Buddhism. He is all practicing, but the paths he chooses are different. If you want to distinguish between the levels, you practice Taoism, I practice Buddhism, and the evolution of Taoism, Dharma, Buddhism, and only the immortals are the ultimate winners.

"When I heard what the real person said, I had a deep understanding. But I had an obsession with it, which one is better, which one is better, what is better, what is better," he said. "

Xingming can see that Zhang Daoran does not repel Buddhism like those practitioners. After saying something just now, he raised Buddhism and praised Taoism. Xingming admires this kind of person who has Taoism in his heart. He speaks this obsession and sincerely asks for advice.

"The Tao and Buddha's original intentions are different, and the teachings are also different. Those who adapt to the progress of the times and are passed down are the winners. This is based on evolutionary theory to distinguish between the advantages and disadvantages. Tao and Buddha have no advantages and disadvantages, but only pursue different things, but are similar in nature, just for immortality. The advantages and disadvantages of Tao and Buddhism are not distinguishable between you and me, but whether they are suitable for cultivation and whether they can guide practitioners to ascend to the Tao." Zhang Daoran smiled slightly: "For example, if two people eat the same kind of rice, they can taste two flavors. In this way, it can be said that some people who eat this kind of rice are masters, and some are inferior people?"

Xingming pondered for a while, and the monks who had dissatisfied eyes fell into deep thought.

The old man in the suit in the corner smiled knowingly: "This is the state of mind that a cultivator should have!"

Zhang Daoran walked to his cushion and sat down: "I practice my Tao, you practice your Buddha. Taoism is the Dharma, and Buddhism is also the Dharma. I opened the altar and preached, just to convey the inheritance of the Taoist sect. My fellow Taoists came from afar, but I had no reward for my sermons. I have been preaching for nine days. I also asked for a correction..."

Zhang Yifang, who was sitting opposite Zhang Daoran, was originally immersed in Zhang Daoran's words just now. Hearing Zhang Daoran's words, he immediately woke up. He stood up and faced the Taoist sayings: "My fellow Taoists, please invite the real person to preach..."
