As Prime Minister Zuo returned to his seat disheartened, the "episode" in the Buddhist banquet also came to an end, returning to the topic.

After Meng Hui's sermon, it was time for the masters of Anguo Temple to discuss Zen with Meng Hui.

Abbot Puhui and others had been immersed in the Dharma preached by Meng Hui and contemplated, but they were awakened by the noise in the hall.While waiting patiently for the emperor to deal with Meng Hui's "family affairs", the five masters had already held back their stomachs with questions. At this time, Jianlun Chan started again and immediately threw them out.

Of course, because of Meng Hui's head start, they forgot all about the Buddhist questions they had prepared, and their minds were full of Meng Hui's sermon just now, and the questions they raised were naturally within Meng Hui's control.

Facing the inquiries from the monks, Meng Hui was calm and eloquent, while several eminent monks either seemed to have realized something, or frowned deeply.

In fact, even if the monks did not agree with what he said, Meng Hui was right in his heart, because with the great success of his "performance" just now, he was already invincible.

The quality of Buddhist sermons that cultivate.true.bit.face is absolutely high. After all, this is the way they insist on. Naturally, they will try their best to repair the flaws and make it complete and accessible.As long as Meng Hui expounds along the central idea of ​​this sermon, there will be no major omissions and mistakes. What's more, the "golden light of merit and virtue" that Meng Hui arranged for the light ball before also established a touch of true knowledge for him. , The "authority" status that God feels.

Authority is such a sharp weapon. Even if many people like to express themselves and oppose authority, only fools will jump out rashly and verbally challenge authority without a decisive basis.

What's more, idealistic theories such as Buddhism and Taoism are all justified and justified. As long as they can be justified, there is no real distinction between right and wrong.Even the Buddhist cultivators who practiced the same scripture in the realm of cultivation, truth, and enlightenment, would have different understandings and insistence on this Buddhist scripture, and they could not convince each other, let alone monks in the mundane world.

And once there is no conclusive evidence, it will be difficult to erase the traces of authority in everyone's minds.

If Meng Hui hadn't played with the merits from heaven to establish himself as an authoritative image of being inspired by Buddhism and Taoism and giving gifts, once there were different opinions, eight out of ten monks who stood on the opposite side would insist on their own beliefs. After understanding, he persevered and refused to give in, and had a tit-for-tat, divergent thinking with Meng Hui, and might even lose control of the direction of the debate.

But now, after Meng Hui has become an authority, whatever he says, even if it is not in line with their own beliefs, the monks will first gather their spirits and think hard, trying to understand why Meng Hui said that, which is not in line with their own. Understand the similarities and differences, which side is more reasonable.

Arguing is never the way to solve problems. On the contrary, the more arguing, the easier it is for people to become emotional and stubborn.Even Buddhist practitioners like to discuss Zen, not to persuade each other, but to further perfect their own way and strengthen their own way in this kind of discussion.

Contrary to arguments, introspection and reflection make it easier for oneself to accept the views of others. After all, the easiest thing to convince yourself is yourself.

Because of his understanding of human psychology, Meng Hui made a pre-emptive plan to turn passive into active, changing the monks' attitude towards him from scrutiny and judgment to open-minded discussion.

If you look at a person from the perspective of the former, any contradictions and mistakes will be virtually magnified and become the target of criticism and debate, while the latter will make people more tolerant and calm, and tend to seek common ground while reserving differences.

Under Meng Hui's control, the Buddhist banquet lasted from the afternoon to the evening, and it didn't come to an end until all the participants were a little out of sorts.

Meng Hui, the emperor, the prince and others personally sent the five masters of Anguo Temple to the carriage back to the temple.Before leaving, Abbot Puhui, who was still unsatisfied with this discussion on Zen, tried his best to invite Meng Hui to live in Anguo Temple temporarily, but the emperor and the prince jointly blocked him back. He had to sigh with regret, reluctantly left, and solemnly invited Meng Hui participated in the Anguo Temple Dharma Assembly on the Buddha's birthday and preached again in front of the believers.

The end of the Buddhist banquet does not mean the end of the day.

Due to the Buddhist banquet, the emperor's memorial has not yet been approved, so he simply arrested the prince's young man and let him handle it with him.The prince had no choice but to send Meng Hui back to the East Palace, told him to rest early, and left in a hurry, so busy that he never touched the ground.

After sending the prince away, Meng Hui drank a large cup of tea that was brought by the servants in time, and felt his dry throat a little relieved, and then raced against time to let the light ball call out today's video, and sort out the details of the Buddhist feast. Harvest——As for the evening class, well, I have discussed Zen for so long today, so I don’t care if I don’t do the evening class.

It took almost an hour for Meng Hui to have a detailed understanding of the forces in Beijing, and he felt much more at ease.

Seeing the relaxed expression of his host, the ball of light jumped on the table, and his words were curious: "Yes, Huihui, when you preached before, did you have an epiphany? What did you gain?"

Meng Hui was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips slightly: "The main reason is that I have a somewhat different understanding of the original body's wish."

"Different understanding?" Guangqiu asked.

"Yes." Meng Hui nodded. "When I first entered this world, I received the wish of the original body, which was to understand the truth of my own monkhood, and then evil will be rewarded with evil. But when I was preaching, I had I got a different feeling and found that this was not the original wish."

"Surface wish and...real wish?" The ball of light flickered, "I've heard such a saying before."

Meng Hui nodded slightly: "The original body hopes that he can understand the truth, but he is afraid and resists to understand the truth, so he would rather starve to death in a ruined temple deep in the mountains than to deceive himself and others and dare not look for the truth in his memory." His biological father dared not meet his aunt. If he was indeed calculated, how could he hate and complain about the old monk who did his best to raise him up like a teacher and a father? Speaking of which, the old monk was indeed kind to the original owner. As long as there is a morsel to eat, it will be given to the original owner first, and his death may not have been caused by the original owner's encumbrance, starvation, and exhaustion." Sighing slightly, Meng Hui's expression was pitiful but indifferent, "Only It's a pity that although the original body is cowardly and affectionate, he is not a fool. He has doubted the old monk's assertion that he was a "born Buddha". After all..." Meng Hui mocked, "Which natural Buddha would To be in such a miserable state, to die silently from hunger and cold?"

The ball of light fell silent, as if mourning for the original body.

"...So, there is no need to prove this matter, it is the old monk colluding with the original aunt?" After a while, Guangqiu asked quietly.

"Eight or nine out of ten." Meng Hui's eyes darkened, "Although it's been too long and it's hard to find out the truth, it's still a piece of cake for us. Find a chance to catch the personal servant girl trusted by the original mother. The mother-in-law and the like, or even directly arresting her, and then torture or hypnotic suggestions, can always make them tell the truth. But..." After a pause, Meng Hui shrugged his shoulders, "If we really verify If the old monk colluded with the original mother and abducted the original body, then the original body will probably be extremely painful, and even the soul will collapse. This will violate our starting point of making the original body fulfill his wish and reincarnate with peace of mind."

"Then what should we do?" Light Ball had a headache.

"Actually, we don't have to worry about that much. Since the original wish was this, it's fine if we fulfill him. As for whether he collapses in pain and dies because of this, that's his own problem. Who will let him I'm hiding something." Meng Hui's tone was cold, but after a while his expression softened, "However, before I knew his real wish, I was already on the right track and on the right path to fulfill his wish, so let me comfort you by the way. This poor little self-deceiving person is doing good deeds every day."

"The correct way to fulfill the wish of the original body?" The ball of light was at a loss at first, and then a flash of inspiration flashed, "You mean...becoming a real 'born Buddha child'?"

"Yes." Meng Hui smiled, "It doesn't matter whether the old monk's saying 'born a Buddha' is true or not, as long as everyone believes it in the end, then what is false will become true. There is a saying in Buddhism, "All dharmas come into being by cause and condition, and I say it is cause and condition; when cause and condition are exhausted, I say so." When cause and condition exist, things exist; The truth, what he hopes most is that he is indeed a "born Buddha child" and is destined to have a predestined relationship with the Buddha. In this way, the evil cause will disappear, and there will be no evil effect. The master he respects the most will always be the master he respects and loves It's not a villain who abducts children for selfish desires, and as for his aunt, Yuan Bo doesn't care much."

"This..." Guangqiu sighed, "This is indeed self-deception, human beings are really complicated and contradictory."

Meng Hui shrugged his shoulders: "We defenders only act to satisfy the original body's wishes. We have no qualifications and no need to judge whether the other party's wishes are good or bad, whether they are sympathetic or laughable."

"That's right." Guangqiu snorted, "What about Yuanzheng's aunt? Do we still need to punish her? If we punish her, wouldn't that prove that she is not innocent of Yuanzheng's affairs? But if we don't Punishment... I feel a little unhappy that she did bad things but didn't get retribution."

"Your sense of justice is quite strong? You don't hesitate to increase my workload in order to avenge the original body?" Meng Hui snorted and bounced the ball of light dissatisfied. A lot, you want to exhaust your host to death, and then change to a new host?"

The light ball gave a dry laugh, rolled back silently, and continued to rub against its host.

"Since we choose to follow the route of the holy monk and Buddha's son, it means that everything in the past will be wiped out. What will happen to the original mother has nothing to do with us." Meng Hui narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a stern look in them, "However, if If someone has a guilty conscience and wants to jump out and do something, I don't mind going along with the flow and teaching her a lesson."

Seeing that the host had made a decision, the light ball stopped talking. Anyway, judging from the uneasy reaction of the original mother's aunt today, the existence of "Master Xuanzhen" was enough to make her uneasy.Even if her host doesn't do anything, the devil in her heart will slowly torture and persecute her, making her sleepless and frightened.
