Chapter 2252 The Third Drop of Blood (13)
Buddha?!
I turned around in amazement and saw a giant golden Buddha sitting in the lotus position among the clouds behind me. His left hand was in meditation seal, and his right hand was flexing his fingers to make a ring. He was looking down at me with a compassionate expression.
"Take refuge in Buddha, take refuge in Buddha..."
The shouts suddenly appeared and were particularly loud.
But I looked puzzled. I am from the Wei clan, but I am a disciple of the Taoist sect, and I have a vague relationship with the Buddha? Why did this golden Buddha show up to join in the fun at this time?
Could it be that my guess is wrong? It’s not that I want to choose my own path of spiritual practice and understand my own heart clearly?!
Otherwise, how did this Buddha appear? I practice Taoism and the art of heavenly officialdom, and even dabble in witchcraft left over from ancient times, but I have never practiced Buddhism.
This Buddha suddenly appeared, but it felt a bit forced.
No, my guess is correct!
Soon, I became firm and still insisted on my opinion.
It is true that I have never practiced Buddhism, but Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have taken root in the Central Plains and have been fighting and merging with each other for thousands of years. It has long been a situation where you have me, and I have you.
Who dares to say that today's Taoism is the original pure Taoism?
Who dares to say that today’s Buddhism is the original Tianzhu Buddhism?
They have been blended together for a long time. In fact, they are indistinguishable from each other. They also affect everyone on this land and have long taken root in their hearts. This is the so-called root of culture and the soul of the nation.
In the past, when I was practicing Taoism, the books in the Zhenwu Temple were vast and numerous, and they may have contained a lot of Buddhist things. I had long since practiced Buddhism without even realizing it, and it had even affected my thoughts and concepts invisibly.
Nowadays, the power of Buddhism, Taoism, etiquette, and three meridians coexist in one body. However, all three meridians have their own theoretical basis. They combine with each other and conflict with each other. This has become the biggest crux of my practice. If it is not smooth, how can I see the world?
, see yourself after seeing all sentient beings? How can you condense your true self and awaken your true Tao and Fruit?!
"Take refuge in Buddha..."
"Take refuge in the Tao..."
"Conversion Ceremony..."
"..."
The seemingly existential voices of the three gods came from three directions. There was a bewitching flavor in the voices, which caused many thoughts in my mind and made me feel confused for a moment.
Suddenly, the golden Buddha said: "Idiot, you should take refuge in the Buddha!
Buddha is transcendent.
Let go of the worldly affairs and achieve the great road of the world! Refine the relics and achieve the perfect Bodhi! Forget all the troubles in the world. The sound of wind, rain, and the longing for a lifetime. Nirvana, sudden enlightenment, and the Zen front of the lifetime.
Taking refuge in the Buddha, there is no root of trouble, and there is great freedom."
The Tao respected him and said: "Idiot, you should take refuge in the Tao.
Plants and insects do not lose their place; otters do not cast nets before fish are sacrificed; jackals do not plow fields and hunt until animals are sacrificed; hawks and falcons do not spread their wings until they strike; trees and grass are not cut down until frost and dew touch them.
Everything in heaven and earth has a way. Heaven has a way. All spirits also have a way. You also have a way.
The Tao is to let nature take its course, to look away, and not to fight. Instead of fighting, fight to be free and happy."
The voice of Shengwu Tianguan was loud and full of murderous aura: "The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency when there is more damage. The way of man is to make up for the deficiency when it is not enough.
How to deal with the contradiction between the two? It's just a scam.
There are six ways of heaven, humans, ghosts, and six paths. Each one goes his own way. Where does the theory of reincarnation come from?
This world is a selfish world. If you respect heaven and earth, you will abandon the small way. If you respect others, you will hurt yourself. A wise man will not do this.
Therefore, all things are born, and they all go their own way. Natural selection competes with each other, and the fittest survive!
The way of etiquette is order. We should kill and split the heaven and earth with swords. Follow the rules and establish rules so that everyone does not violate each other!
Idiot, you should take refuge as a rite of refuge!"
"..."
The three statues chattered endlessly, and every word they spoke sounded like thunder in my heart, making me confused and my head felt like it was split.
"ah!!"
I squatted down with my head in my hands and let out a shrill scream. I felt as if my whole body was about to burst.
"Take refuge in Buddha!"
"Take refuge in the Tao!"
"Conversion Ceremony!"
The three statues shouted at the same time, and then there was a loud "crash" sound, and three golden chains sprang out from the three statues. They grabbed me without giving me any chance to react, and one chain strangled my neck.
A chain strangled my waist, and another chain strangled my legs, preventing me from moving. On the other hand, the chain was getting tighter and tighter, and the three parties were pulling at the same time, as if they were going to tear me apart.
The screams in my mouth became more and more shrill, but the chains remained unmoved. The extreme pain overwhelmed me. I even felt that I had entered a state of suspended animation. This endless pain was unknown.
After how long it lasted, I finally woke up from the pain.
"Fuck you, I won't convert to anyone!!"
It was the anger in my bones that was aroused, but as soon as I said these words, I fell into silence first, as if something that had been brewing in my heart for a long time came out of the cocoon at this moment.
"Yes, I don't convert to anyone!!"
My tone became firmer. At this moment, my eyes were filled with divine light. I suddenly grabbed the chain around my neck and stared at Shengwu Heavenly Official: "There is no fear of changes in the sky, no laws for ancestors, and people say
Not enough.
I was born into the Wei family, but I am an independent individual. I am not another you. I don’t need to follow your path or live according to your will!
Open it for me!"
After saying that, I pulled it with both hands and the chain around my neck broke.
Then I held the chain around my waist and looked at the golden Buddha: "The so-called letting go and detachment are nothing more than letting go of all the fetters and becoming a clay-body stone sculpture alone. I came to this world alone, but
I always have to look for some beauty that is not lonely. If I end up taking this journey just to be a lonely clay sculpture, then what am I doing in this world?
I don’t take the so-called detachment, give it away!”
As I said that, I broke the chain around my waist.
Finally, I grabbed the chain on my foot and looked at the Taoist Master in the glow: "The so-called letting nature take its course is nothing more than obeying destiny.
If God wants me to die, what should I do?
In this case, what use is this day to him?
Open it for me!"
The last chain was torn off. At this moment, I felt so comfortable all over my body. I felt that my whole body was being sublimated in an instant.
"Take refuge in the Tao!"
"Conversion Ceremony!"
"Take refuge in Buddha!"
The voices of the three gods were chattering freely, but their voices were much lowered.
"I don't convert to anyone!
I am who I am, and my will is my own way!”
At this moment, I just felt hearty and relaxed as never before. Looking at the three terrifying figures, I clasped my waist with my hands and raised my head and laughed: "Whether it's Buddha or Tao, I want it. All your skills can be used by me."
As far as I am concerned, it is just a tool, I take the essence and discard the dross, but that’s it, don’t talk about the Tao anymore, I am my own Tao!”
The moment the voice fell, the three figures instantly disappeared.
At this moment, I clearly felt that something that had always bound me was broken. I lost something, but at the same time I retained something. There was even an intuition that told me that this self-gazing between life and death was very important to me.
His words are of great significance and have a far-reaching impact, even more significant than my coming to the end of humanity!
However, I don’t have time to think about what it actually means. The moment I seek this soul’s freedom, it is shattered in an instant!
