On Mount Xumi, the rays of light are shining brightly, and the clean mist is flying. Wherever you go, you are filled with the sound of Miao Sanskrit, and wherever you breathe, you are also filled with the fragrance of sandalwood.
The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is nothing but wonderful and solemn.
Every time he came here in the past, Ksitigarbha was full of respect and respect. For this Buddhist mountain bathed in light, he only had infinite longing in his heart. I still remember the scene when I came for the first time after my incarnation in the East. All the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were lined up on the left and right, each holding flowers and magical instruments, greeting each other. After all, this was the first Bodhisattva from the East. Tathagata gave himself the ultimate courtesy.
But when a conflict arose between the Zen views he expounded and those of Western Buddhism, he was placed in the tearing hell, which was equivalent to being exiled for thousands of years.
In fact, he doesn¡¯t know that as long as he is more tactful and uses his identity and status to order Dongtu Zen Sect to convert to Tantric Buddhism, he will definitely be praised by the Jin family. Why does it take him thousands of years to advance to become a Miaojue Bodhisattva? But he just refused. He would rather stay with evil ghosts in that torn hell day and night, and he would rather go against his original intention.
"Ksitigarbha Miaojue Bodhisattva, come with me in!" Just as Ksitigarbha raised his eyes and looked at the three large characters "Daizangjue" on the plaque, Venerable Anuo indicated that he could go in.
Ksitigarbha asked calmly: "Your Majesty, you have served the Buddha for a long time, do you know what Mahatsang Awakening means?"
Anuo said: "Buddha has a cloud. Only when you hear the Dharma at a glance can you experience it with your ears, and you can cultivate consciousness and knowledge. That is to say, only if you practice it day by day, you can make progress month by month. Of course, the Tibetan person is also a hermit. , it is also the Buddha who warned us to cultivate naturally"
"Yes, we cultivate naturally!" Ksitigarbha smiled indifferently and said: "Since we cultivate naturally, there is no need to covet the fertile fields of the east thousands of miles away!"
"Hush! Bodhisattva, don't talk nonsense!" Anuo looked around cautiously and whispered: "Let's go in!"
As A Nuo waved his hand, the fog in front of him dispersed, and a way to get the light stack hanging in the clouds appeared in front of him.
The two walked through the long and narrow airway and finally arrived in front of the Ambilight Hall on the opposite side.
"Reporting to the Buddhas, Ksitigarbha Miaojue Bodhisattva was invited to be brought here to wait for the Dharma's call." Anuo clasped his hands together and said respectfully toward the hall.
At this time, a shout came from the palace: "See you in person."
Anuo looked at Ksitigarbha and said to the main hall: "Today is a discussion among the Buddhas, so I won't go in. Bodhisattva, please go in on your own."
Ksitigarbha nodded and without hesitation, passed directly through the two doors and entered the main hall.
"Disciple Ksitigarbha has an audience with the Buddhas." Ksitigarbha nodded slightly, put his hands together, and bowed to the Buddha. Li Bi raised his head and glanced at the hall. His mood, which had calmed down a little, suddenly became angry again.
On the Buddhist altar, there are seventeen Buddhas with colorful backlights on the left and right, all in the form of monks, looking at Ksitigarbha. Only the lotus seat in the center is empty.
And this lotus seat is none other than Buddha.
After seven visits, he was finally summoned, but there were no monks there except the Buddha's head.
"If you say this was not done intentionally by the Buddha, even ghosts will not believe it.
Ksitigarbha laughed dumbly, tossed his cassock, turned around and left.
"Wait a minute!" A voice came from the Buddhist altar: "Ksitigarbha, what does this mean? You just saluted, are you going to leave without saying a word?"
Ksitigarbha turned around and saw that it was Medicine Buddha who was speaking. He said loudly: "Since I have been summoned by the Buddha, but I can't see him, Ksitigarbha might as well go back and practice hard. Since the Buddha thinks that it is not enough to meet him in person, then he has to Let¡¯s talk about it when the Buddha wants to see the poor monk.¡±
"Ksitigarbha, a monk, don't be angry or speak falsely. Why are you so angry?" Another great Buddha said: "Although the Buddha cannot come to the hall today, can't we, the thirty-four Buddhas, talk to you?"
"It turns out to be Amitabha, the leader of the Supreme Bliss Cult. Disciple is rude!" Ksitigarbha bowed lightly and said seriously: "Since the leader asked, let me simply ask, if what we are talking about today is the relationship between the metal system and the Zangmen, and Can our Buddhist country intervene in the Eastern world? Can you, the thirty-four Buddhas, make any decisions? In the secular regimes of the East, emperors often have a saying: "I am responsible for all major affairs in the world." Now this Buddha Do all the educational affairs in the country belong to the Tathagata alone? If the thirty-four Buddhas cannot be the masters of the Buddhas, then everything I say to you here is nonsense."
"Listen, does this still look like a Bodhisattva? It's just full of nonsense!"
"Forget it, Dongfang Waifan, what other achievements can you expect from him?"
"How can we save all sentient beings when there is so much hostility?"
When the Buddhas heard Ksitigarbha¡¯s words, they all immediately began to criticize him.
Ksitigarbha looked disdainfully and said calmly: "Thanks to all the Buddhas, I have now lost the ability to even tear apart the hells. How can I save the world and save all living beings? I know that many of you present will give me a chance." Seeing Zang as a thorn in the flesh, don¡¯t you just want me to be so self-destructive? Tell you, don¡¯t worry about me. I have dismissed all the monks in Ksitigarbha Dojo. I am alone, practicing hard in seclusion, and you can still criticize me. What am I? Forming a clique? Pursuing personal gain?"
"Ksitigarbha, there is no need to be like this!" Medicine Buddha shook his head and comforted: "I know that you are suffering in your heart, which is why we have today's meeting. If you have any ideas, you must seize this opportunity to say it carefully. Don't talk nonsense. .Although Buddha has not seen you, who says this is not an opportunity given to you by Buddha? You have good intentions."
Ksitigarbha said to the Medicine Buddha: "Medical Buddha, you are in charge of the Oriental Glazed World. Although you are not stationed in the East, you are most familiar with it. This Oriental Taoism has been rooted in thousands of years. How can we destroy it at our request?" The spread of Buddhism to the east needs to be combined with Taoism. If the metal system insists on taking advantage of the chaos to move eastward, it may be counterproductive, and Buddhism will be driven out in the future"
"Haha, it's just a bunch of alarmists!" At this time, a voice came and said: "The Eastern Taoist world has been fighting for tens of thousands of years, and you can't even find a person who has cultivated to the gods. Why are you bragging about being rooted for thousands of years? We, the Buddha, are compassionate and have created this Dharma to save all sentient beings and bring happiness to all worlds. Isn¡¯t now an opportunity?¡±

When Ksitigarbha saw that the person speaking was the King of the Sala Tree who was at the bottom, he couldn't help but sneered: "Who do I think it is? It turns out to be the King of the Sala Tree. I remember that when the Buddha first established Buddhism, You are still an extreme opponent. You tried to kill the Buddha several times. At that time, did you think that the Buddha was also a rabble?"
"YouKsitigarbha, you are too presumptuous. After all, I am still a Buddha!"
"Yes, that's just because you are still a Buddha. Otherwise, the poor monk would have slapped you in the face!" Ksitigarbha completely let go of himself, pointed at the King of Salos and shouted angrily: "Ask yourself, as a Buddha , what shameful deeds have you done? When you looked down on Buddhism, you wanted to kill the Buddha. Later, when the Buddha's kingdom grew bigger, you immediately turned around and became a "supporter of meritorious deeds". 'The minister has also become a Buddha. Haha, now, it is you who is shouting to drive away all Taoism. Then if one day, when the Eastern World comes to kill, will you be the first to run over and surrender? ah?"
"Ksitigarbha, if you have something to say, don't attack it personally!" Amitabha Buddha said: "Do you think there is any evidence for King Sarashu's interference in Eastern affairs? Besides, even if many people from the Buddhist kingdom go to the Eastern Land, they are doing so in their own name. Go, this must never be elevated to the level of a Buddhist state!"
Once he heard this, Ksitigarbha finally understood.
The biggest source of co-authorship is here!
Among the three major leaders, Sakyamuni avoided seeing him and chose a silent attitude; Amitabha, the leader of the Western leader, even more openly protected the King of Saloshu.
That¡¯s nonsense!
"All Buddhas are wise!" Ksitigarbha shouted angrily and sadly: "I will quit this wonderful enlightenment Bodhisattva. As for Zen, if you say it is Buddhism, then it is Buddhism. If you don't recognize it, then I will treat it as such. Forget about the Zangzong, the newly created place in the Eastern world."
Ksitigarbha turned around and left.
"Stop!" For a moment, several Buddhas stood up and shouted: "Are you trying to split the Buddhist kingdom?"
