Female Buddha

Chapter 13 Advancement
As the day progresses, the weather starts to get colder.For practitioners, ordinary weather changes can no longer affect them.Even if the cultivation level is too low, a low-level robe can handle it.

After a heavy snowfall, everyone in Fahua Temple started to clean the road with brooms.Qingli took a small broom and began to clean the mountain path from the temple to the pine forest.The winding mountain roads and the surrounding forests are covered with snow.The forests on the mountain are still green, and the white snow covering it has a special view.Qingli took a deep breath, and the breath she exhaled slowly turned into white mist and dissipated around.Qingli only felt that her heart was broad-minded, but she didn't have any lofty ambitions in her heart, instead she was quite calm.

There are many spiritual animals in the Lotus Mountains because Buddhist disciples do not kill.Of course, the attack power of these spiritual beasts is also limited, and those close to the temple are low-level spiritual beasts.There may be high-level spiritual beasts appearing, but most of them have opened their spiritual orifices and have become human beings, so they will not hunt at will near Fahua Temple.Although the winter in nature is cold, it is not too difficult for the spirit beasts.In the mortal world, the trees in the mountains and forests at this season have already fallen into decay, and everything is completely silent.But in the Hokke Mountains, the mountains and forests are still full of life.

Qingli kept sweeping away the snow in her hands, but her ears were paying attention to the movements around her.It wasn't that she was on guard against the dangers coming from all around.But in addition to the fact that in her short life of less than 30 years, she had never seen such a vibrant winter after snowing.Nowadays, her hearing is so good that even if she doesn't use her skills deliberately, she can hear all the sounds within a radius of five miles.While sweeping the snow off the mountain steps, she listened to various sounds in the forest.There is the rustling sound of too much snow on the branches falling to the ground; the creaking sound of small animals running on the snow in the forest; the sound of the wind blowing by; even the subtle sound of squirrels nibbling nuts It seemed as if it was also reaching her ears.

Qingli seemed to be in the forest. For a while, she turned into a small animal running on the snow. For a while, she seemed to have turned into the wind caressing the treetops. For a while, she seemed to have become a branch trying to hold up the white snow above her head.All this made her feel the beauty and purity of life.In reality, Qingli was still sweeping the snow step by step.The movements of the hands were quite frequent and did not stop.But there was a smile on her face. Although her eyes were fixed on the ground beneath her feet, if you look closely, you will find that her eyes were dull, as if she had wandered to the sky.

At this moment, Qingtan came to look for Qingli, and called Qingli softly, but there was no response.Qingtan took a closer look and found that she was in a mysterious state.Qingtan still didn't understand what was going on, and quickly stood aside to protect Qingli.Sure enough, after a while, Qingli stopped sweeping the snow, she stood there motionless, and the spirit energy around her rushed towards her fiercely.Qingli's cultivation base began to increase rapidly.Since Qingli has been a little successful in warming and nurturing the Buddha beads recently, the path of the Buddha's energy in her body has more paths leading to the Buddha beads.So don't look at Qingli's promotion is very fast, but what is really stored in the dantian is the Buddha's energy that has been compressed and purified by the Buddha beads.

In fact, the benefits of epiphany in the practice world are quite obvious.There is actually a reason why outside monks encounter epiphany and improve their realms not many times.So much aura rushing into the experience brings a great burden to the body.In addition, the dantian in the body bears so much spiritual pressure for a while, and it is also great.The additional pressure from inside and outside will make the monk's body reach a limit.Once the limit is reached, the monk will instinctively stop the epiphany and focus on stabilizing the realm.Of course, there is another situation caused by insufficient mental state cultivation.

Buddhist disciples often advance through enlightenment because their practice is inherently special.Buddhist cultivation relies on enlightenment, which is no joke.The so-called enlightenment is actually a kind of spiritual practice.Buddhist disciples often have to cultivate their mental state higher than the actual state of cultivation in their body.Disciples of Buddhism often need to practice both body and law.Of course, Buddhist cultivators who practice body training have a much higher limit on how much spiritual energy their bodies can withstand than other ordinary cultivators.Therefore, their mental state and physical conditions meet the requirements. Once they have an epiphany, they can easily advance through several levels.The reason why it is not easy to advance in Buddhism actually lies in the state of mind.If the state of mind cultivation is not up to par, there is basically no hope of promotion.That is to say, the people in Fahua Temple are all idiots with great wisdom roots, so they have advanced to high realms at a young age.Those in the outside world who have poor understanding of Buddhism are still lingering in the state of asking Buddha.In a sense, Buddhist cultivation is actually based on qualifications.It’s just that this qualification does not refer to spiritual roots, but to wisdom roots.

It has been almost three hours since Qingli practiced this epiphany.Qingtan has been guarding here as its guardian.Not only was he not impatient, but he was very happy.As time elongated, the arc of Qingtan's mouth became more and more obvious.What is the practice for?Isn't it for detachment from pain and freedom.Qingtan is now only one step away from the big golden body.Of course, he also wanted to advance to the Elder's House early and entrust the burden of being a Buddhist disciple to him earlier.But as a Buddhist disciple, one must always consider the entire Buddhist sect.If the successor Buddha's cultivation is too low, he doesn't have much right to speak when going out to socialize.Although the Buddha is young, the outside world also depends on his cultivation.Although each Buddha succeeded to the throne at a very young age, his cultivation base was also very low.But most of them are in the Juyuan period.When he succeeded to the position of Buddha's son, he only asked the seventh level of Buddha.But it was only because Master's cultivation could no longer be suppressed that this happened.Now that the junior sister is less than half a year old and has advanced so quickly, she must be able to enter the Juyuan stage before he can't suppress his cultivation and advance.

When Qingli woke up from the trance, the sky was already dark.She looked inside her dantian, and the bodhi sapling not only grew a lot taller, but also had five leaves.Even faint signs of the growth of the sixth bodhi leaf can be found.She widened her eyes in disbelief.She had never seen such a vigorous winter, so she was a little happier and a little more turbulent. How did she advance so much?Could it be that she was still a cute little girl when she got together.This makes Qingli, who loves beauty, somewhat unacceptable.

Qingtan saw Qingli's shocked look and chuckled.Of course he knew why Junior Sister was like this.This is how he came here in the first place.I remember when he first took over the position of Buddha's son when he was asking about the seventh level of Buddha.He was only seven years old at that time.In order to shoulder the responsibility of a Buddhist disciple, he accelerated his cultivation and advanced to the Juyuan stage when he was less than nine years old.Thinking about the bitter past of walking around like a boy for the next hundreds of years, communicating with major sects and being secretly made fun of, Qingtan patted Qingli on the shoulder and said: "Junior sister, don't worry, senior brother will definitely work hard to suppress it." Cultivation will buy you more time to practice slowly."

After hearing this, Qingli couldn't help feeling a little bit of unbearable in her heart.Buddhist practice emphasizes letting nature take its course, everything will happen naturally.Therefore, it is not good to suppress the cultivation base for a long time.Qingli sighed and said: "Amitabha, Qingli thanked my senior brother for protecting the Dharma. Senior brother, there is no need to suppress your cultivation for me. Otherwise, this will not only hinder your cultivation, senior brother, but also cause me to have inner demons. On the contrary, It’s not beautiful anymore. Anyway, judging from the current situation, I really have great wisdom. Maybe I will still look like a boy when I gather my essence. Although I feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, I will get used to it. "

Qingtan smiled and said, "Amitabha, it's good that my junior sister can look away. Although I will often be regarded as a different kind of boy by acting like a boy in the future. But my Buddhist disciples don't care about other people's eyes."

"That's right," Qingli had already decided to let nature take its course and no longer worry about the progress of her cultivation.At this moment, she was in a good mood and said: "Others laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others because they can't see through it."

"Junior Sister's words are good. She is indeed a person of great wisdom." Qingtan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Well, Qingli choked up. She forgot that there was no such person as Tang Yin in this world.If she was asked to admit that she had done this, she was not willing.Especially since she is a Buddhist practitioner now, how can she do anything against her will?After a long while, Qingli said: "Brother, you are ridiculous. I am still young, how can I say such wise words? These sentences are not my original creation, but two lines from a poem written by a man named Tang Yin in the secular world. . I felt that it was right in my heart, so I blurted it out."

Qingtan helped Qingli clean up the mountain path, and then took her to the Sutra-Tiding Pavilion.On the mountain path, there was faint chatter and laughter between brothers and sisters.

"Junior sister, can you read this poem written by Tang Yin to senior brother?"

"Of course. Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, Peach Blossom Fairy under Peach Blossom Temple..."
