Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    From the beginning, Ye Tianchen naturally knew that this was just a dream. It was a dream that could not be underestimated, and it was a dream that could not be followed. If he was seriously injured or even died in the dream, then something like this would happen.  Dreams will become reality!

    However, when Ye Tianchen jumped off the deep sea cliff and a "Buddha handprint" shattered the hell on earth, he came to a palace. In this palace, there were ten real Buddha statues around. Ye Tianchen took action to kill them.  A Buddha statue suffered a powerful backlash. His overlord fist strength was easily neutralized by a Buddha statue, which was shocking!

    However, when Ye Tianchen saw the Buddha statue sitting cross-legged in the middle of the palace, he was stunned. It can be said that he was shocked because of the Buddha statue sitting cross-legged in the center of the palace.  , exuding an aura of supremacy, and Ye Tianchen has lived in the secular world for so long. There are too many images of the Supreme Buddha of Buddhism, the Buddhist emperor among martial artists, sitting cross-legged in the middle of the palace.  Isn't the person in the center none other than the Buddhist Emperor?

    The Buddhist Emperor, the most mysterious emperor, the one who created a true immortal inheritance for hundreds of millions of years. His mystery and power are unquestionable and difficult for anyone to touch. No matter in front of Ye Tianchen,  Is he a real Buddhist emperor? That kind of aura and trembling feeling are hard to move!

    Ye Tianchen looked at the Buddha sitting cross-legged in the center of the palace, and at the ten Buddha statues around him. He tried hard to recall everything about Buddhism.  He had never thought about it before, never thought about it, and his understanding of Buddhism came more from some information in the secular world. This is all he can think of now!

    There is a small country between the foothills of the Himalayas and the Ganges River. The king is called King Suddhodana.

    One day, King Suddhodana, who was in the palace, received the good news from the Queen's home that the Queen had given birth to a prince for him.  This prince is Buddha Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism.

    Sakyamuni¡¯s mother died on the seventh day after giving birth to him, so he was raised by his aunt.  Sakyamuni has been very smart since he was a child, and he can learn everything at once.  And he is willing to ask why for everything, and he must get an answer.

    King Suddhodana liked the little prince very much and hoped that one day the little prince could become a king who would unify the world.  But the old king was always worried about the little prince, because he was always willing to think about things that seemed ridiculous to the old king.  For example, he asked, among the same people, why are some people Brahmins and some Sudras?  Moreover, the descendants of Brahmins are all Brahmins, and the descendants of Sudras are always Sudras.  Why is this?  The old king couldn't answer, so he had to say that this was arranged by God, but Siddhartha said he didn't believe it.  He also said that he would find a way to make everyone equal.

    When Siddhartha was 19 years old, he married his cousin and had a happy family life.  One day, Siddhartha went out to play in the city.  I saw an old man holding a wooden stick and moving with difficulty. Not far away, I saw a patient lying in the mud.  I encountered a group of birds pecking at a corpse.  He asked a passerby what was going on, and the passerby said: "It's really rare and strange. This kind of thing happens often, and it's not the first time."  After returning to the palace, he kept thinking about this problem and was very annoyed and distressed.  He was thinking: Can't a person's life be free from the pain of birth, old age, illness and death?  Another day, Siddhartha saw a man wearing tattered clothes, holding an earthenware bowl, looking carefree, rich and happy.  The prince asked his attendants who this person was.  The attendant said: "This is a monk who is a monk." Siddhartha quickly saluted the monk and asked him why he was so happy.  The ascetic said to him: "Everything in the world is impermanent, and only monks can be liberated."

    After returning to the palace, the prince was thinking about the monk's words again. He was very excited and had the idea of ??becoming a monk.  The next morning, his wife gave birth to a son.  After the news came out, the whole city celebrated that King Suddhodana had a grandson and that Siddhartha had a son.  But after thinking about it for a night, Siddhartha decided to become a monk and practice Buddhism.  He walked quietly through his wife's room and saw her holding her son in her arms, and wanted to go in and take a look.  However, he finally stopped

    The 25-year-old life-size statue of Sakyamuni Buddha stopped in his tracks and sighed: "How difficult it is to practice Taoism!"

    Finally, he made up his mind to abandon his wife and children and left home resolutely.

    The next day, Siddhartha walked out of the country, drew a sword by a river, shaved off his hair, and became a monk.  The old king lost his son and was so anxious that he sent several people out to look for him. They finally found Siddhartha in the forest, but he refused to go home.  After that, Siddhartha traveled around to find famous scholars to study philosophy, and also studied Taoism with ascetics.  At that time, the so-called "asceticism" was popular in India, which meant seeking the truth through various self-inflicted hardships.?If you don't eat or sleep.  Siddhartha once used this practice method, but as a result, his mental and physical strength was almost exhausted, and he still gained nothing.  Later he realized that only by being physically strong could he find the truth.  So he began to pay attention to exercising his body and will.

    One day, he came to a small river and wanted to take a bath to wash away all the dirt accumulated on his body in the six years since he became a monk.  The little girl herding cows by the river was very worried when she saw Siddhartha's physical and mental exhaustion, so she gave him a lot of milk.  Siddhartha finally regained his strength.  He went to a Bodhi tree, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and meditated there, and meditated for 6 years.

    When he was 35 years old, he finally figured out how to relieve human suffering and founded Buddhism.  Later, Siddhartha went to various places to preach and recruit believers, hoping that everyone would believe everything he said and do it.  This is how Buddhism came into being.  As the founder of Buddhism, Siddhartha is called Sakyamuni by his disciples, which means the saint of the Sakya clan.  Sakyamuni's teachings and spirit inspired many people, including many Brahmins and Kshatriya castes.  More and more people accept Sakyamuni's teachings.

    Sakyamuni interpreted Buddhism as the "Four Truths". "Truth" means truth. The Four Truths are the four "truths": the truth of suffering, the truth of origin, the truth of cessation and the truth of path.  The "truth of suffering" means that human life is full of suffering. Birth, old age, illness, death, happiness, anger, sorrow, and joy are actually suffering.  "Ji Di" refers to the reason why people suffer.  Because people have all kinds of desires, and when they put their wishes into action, there will be corresponding results. Then in the next life, you will have to pay the price for your actions in this life. That is the so-called good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil.  "The truth of annihilation" refers to how to eliminate the causes of suffering.  To get rid of suffering, we must eliminate it.  "The truth of the Tao" refers to how to eliminate the causes of suffering. To eliminate the causes of suffering, you must cultivate the Tao.

    Sakyamuni also formulated "precepts" for believers.  Both lay and monastic believers must abide by the "Five Precepts": not to kill, not to steal, not to commit sexual misconduct, not to lie, and not to drink alcohol.  Men who become monks are called monks (monks), and women are called nuns (nuns).  They must shave their heads, wear monastic robes, and completely separate themselves from family life.  In addition, they must abide by some monastic precepts.

    Buddhism advocates that all people are born equal and sympathizes with the unfortunate sufferers. It preaches that as long as you do good deeds in this life, you will have good rewards in the next life; if you do bad things in this life, you will have bad rewards in the next life.  These ideas of Sakyamuni have a negative side to escaping harsh reality.  He also advocated the use of self-liberation to eliminate worries and negate struggle, so the ruling classes in the secular world throughout the ages often used it.

    There are many myths and legends about Buddha¡¯s salvation.

    The monkey has to cross:

    One day, Sakyamuni sat meditating under the Bodhi tree by the Niranjan River. A macaque held a honey fruit in his hand, and an elephant knelt quietly in front of him with his trunk rolled up in a bamboo tube.  Buddha opened his wise eyes and asked why.

    The macaque replied: "I used to live in the forest at the foot of the mountain. I had hundreds of relatives and lived a comfortable life by climbing trees and picking fruits every day. But the prince shot me while hunting, and all my friends were killed. Fortunately, I escaped by climbing a branch and swinging across the stream."  Now I have only one body left, and I beg the Buddha to save me.

    The elephant also said: "There is an evil person near where I live. He is very cruel to my elephants. He captures them in traps and kills them with swords and arrows. I fled here to avoid the disaster. Fortunately, I met the Buddha and prayed for protection."

    After hearing this, Sakyamuni said to the monkey: "Injuring life is the first major precept in Buddhism. Those who commit abuse will eventually be punished. If you want to be free from suffering, you must practice hard." After saying this, he said:  Like monkeys, they drink from the sweet spring and eat the honeyed fruits.  The elephant monkey was overjoyed, kowtowed to the Buddha, threw himself into the Niranja River, and drowned to death. He waited to be reincarnated as a human being, and then became a monk and practiced Buddhism in order to seek liberation.

    Buddha saves all living beings:

    There was a young girl named Unadya.  Her parents are dead and she is living alone.

    She set up a stall selling fruits, vegetables and other groceries.  Business was good because the sales were fair.

    Later, she became a couple with a young man from the same village. After the marriage, they had a harmonious relationship. Her husband took care of the business while she took care of the housework at home.

    Soon, she gave birth to a lovely child, which added more fun to her family life. However, the good times did not last long However, the good times did not last long. After her husband died of illness, her youngest son also died of illness. She came here with her dead child in her arms.  He is praying for salvation in front of the Buddha who is meditating under the bodhi tree.

    The Buddha preached to her: Everything in the Saha world is inherently "suffering".  Life is suffering, birth is suffering, old age is suffering, illness is suffering, death is suffering, resentment is suffering, and separation is suffering.  Living in this world means living in "suffering".

    After Unadya returned to the village, he was forced to make a living, so he asked for help. At that time, a plague was prevalent, and many people died of the disease. Everyone was unable to take care of themselves and was unable to help.

    She deeply felt the loss of her husband and son and the pain of life in the world. She recalled the Buddha's teachings and determined to escape from the sea of ??suffering.  Unadaya converted to Buddhism, and the Buddha agreed to accept her as his disciple.  Later, she practiced diligently and finally achieved enlightenment.  (To be continued)
