Female Buddha

Chapter 8 Cultivation
Qing Li went back to the Buddhist monastery and first burned incense at the altar.Then she took out the quiet futon given by her uncle and sat in front of the Buddha.At this time, Qingli began to sort out the exercises in her sea of ​​consciousness.

As a Buddhist believer in her previous life, it is not that Qingli has not read this scripture. "Miaofa Lotus Sutra" is a Mahayana classic with far-reaching influence in the history of Chinese Buddhism. Because of its smooth translation, beautiful writing, vivid metaphors, and complete teachings, reading and reciting this sutra is the most common practice method for Chinese Buddhists.But at that time, this classic had 28 chapters, with a total of more than 8 words.Now it is stored in the sea of ​​consciousness as a practice, although Qingli can see all the scriptures.However, only a small part of the method of cultivation can be seen in it.It can be seen that in this world, scriptures always have different functions.It must be that she has to reach a certain level of cultivation to be able to see the following exercises.

Qingli looked at the time, it was already time for evening class.She took out the wooden fish from the Buddhist beads and began to recite the entire Lotus Sutra of the Miaofa: "In the past, the Tathagata, in Mount Qijabori, together with the great arhat Aruo Kechenru, Mahakasyapa Wuliang, and others, gave a speech on the Mahayana Sutra, which is called Wuliang. Righteousness. At that time, the heavenly rain and precious flowers filled the cloth; the light of wisdom appeared auspiciously, and the candles in the holes appeared faintly; the world of Buddhas and Buddhas was shaken in six ways. All human beings and heavens have never had it before, and everyone is happy to praise it. They think that this scripture is the secret of all Buddhas and Tathagatas. Tibet, mysterious and unpredictable, vast and difficult to name, so to pull out the sinking current of stagnation and rescue the lost nature of coma, the merits and virtues are far-reaching, and it is impossible to limit it..."

After typing out the entire scripture, Qingli stood up and saluted the Buddha statue before putting away the wooden fish.Qingli entered the Zen room, took out all the meeting gifts received today, rearranged them, and put them into the storage space of the prayer beads.Then she put her consciousness on the beads to communicate with it.When Qingli communicated with Buddhist beads for the first time when she was in the Sutra Pavilion, she had roughly distinguished the functions of these 108 Buddhist beads into four categories.Two of them are used for storage.Another 26 are used for blessing.The remaining 80 are divided equally between attack and defense functions.Except for the two for storage, the functions of the rest of the beads need to be activated by Qingli engraving the corresponding Buddhist scriptures into the beads with spiritual consciousness.During normal practice, use the power of Buddha to warm and nourish the beads.In short, how effective it can be in the future depends on the level of Qingli's cultivation.

Qingli took advantage of the time and used her Buddhist consciousness to carve the Prajna Heart Sutra into the corresponding Buddhist bead.Seeing the golden light flashing from the Buddha bead, Qingli collapsed on the bed covered in sweat.She couldn't help but sigh that she was really overconfident.Although there are only 260 words in the Boruo Heart Sutra, she has only consulted the Buddha at the first level, and her Buddhist consciousness is still very fragile.The beads were successfully activated without causing damage to the Buddha consciousness.Should we say that she is worthy of the blessings written in the book?
At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the Buddhist monastery: "Uncle Master, disciple Jingxin is here to deliver food."

Qingli got up from the bed, straightened her clothes and went to open the door.She remembered that the Zhike monk she met when she first entered the temple was called Jingxin.Opening the gate of the courtyard, I saw the little novice monk I saw today standing outside the gate holding a meal.Although Jingxin is only about ten years old, she is much taller than Qingli, a little three inches.Qingli took a step back and then raised her head to see him fully.

"Amitabha, it's time to purify your mind." Qingli performed a Buddhist salute and let Pure Heart enter the room.

Jing Xin put the food on the small round table in the living room, then bowed and said: "Greetings to Master Uncle, Master Qingtan Master Uncle just ordered, from now on, disciples will deliver meals to Master Uncle every day."

Qingli nodded: "In the future, if it is not closed, I will not close the door. You can come in and put the food on the stone table in the yard. I will put the dishes on the stone table after eating. You take it away yourself That's right."

"The disciple understands. Then the master and uncle are slow to use, and the disciple will leave first." After speaking, he and Qingli bowed to each other, turned and left.

Qingli first went to the bathroom to take a bath, and then came out to have dinner.After dinner was finished, Qingli washed the dishes and placed them on the stone table in the yard before going back inside and closing the door.

Qingli no longer tried to carve scriptures into Buddhist beads.Instead, he lit Buddhist incense and started copying scriptures.Ever since she was able to write, she had to copy Buddhist scriptures every day.Except yesterday she was on her way to Fahua Temple.So today she planned to make up for the scriptures that she had not copied yesterday.

After Qingli finished copying the scriptures, her heart also calmed down.She began to sit cross-legged on the Buddha bed and began to practice formally.Qingli recited that scripture in the sea of ​​consciousness, and began to comprehend the Buddhist principles in it.But the Buddha's power in the body began to run along a specific path.

It was also thanks to her reciting Buddhist scriptures in her previous life and listening to explanations from many masters.Otherwise, Qingli would be blinded.That is to say, the precious mirror on the top of the Sutra Pavilion reminds Qingli that there is no need to give Qingli too much guidance.Otherwise, the first thing she will face now is to listen to the lectures of the masters of various schools with the new disciples.

The time of practice passed quickly. Qingli woke up from trance only after she felt that a layer of barrier in her body was broken.Qingli looked at her Dantian with awareness.I found that the bodhi tree sapling had already grown its second leaf.This shows that she has entered the second floor of Asking Buddha.Qingli was a little panicked. It had only been more than a month since her enlightenment, and she suddenly entered the second floor of Asking the Buddha.Even if her qualifications were incredible, her cultivation was too fast.It seems that I really can’t immerse myself in hard work in the future.

Qingli looked at the hourglass beside her. It was already midnight, and it was time to do morning lessons.Qingli felt refreshed despite not sleeping all night.It seems that practicing spiritual practice does have benefits.

Qingli went to the altar outside to wash her hands and burned incense, then took out the wooden fish futon and started the morning class.After morning class, Qing Li had just drank a glass of water when she heard a knock on the door, and then Qing Tan's voice came in: "Junior Sister, can I come in?"

Qingli put down her teacup and said, "Senior brother, please come in. The door is unlocked."

Qingtan entered the room and saw the monk's robe on Qingli and said, "You should change into neat practice clothes. There should be some in the wardrobe."

Qingli nodded: "Brother, wait a moment." After speaking, she went into the room to change clothes.

When Qingli came out after changing her clothes, Qingtan led her down the mountain.On the road, Qingli told Qingtan about her worry about her practice progressing too fast.Qingtan smiled: "What do you think epiphany is? For us Buddhist practitioners, epiphany can cross a great realm. It is just the aftertaste of epiphany left in your body. You have already started to practice at that time, and an epiphany can at least let you You have entered the middle stage of asking about Buddha. So junior sisters don't need to panic. If you are worried about entering the realm too quickly, you can use more Buddha energy to warm and nourish the Buddha beads. This will also make your Buddha energy more mellow."

Qingli nodded to show that she was taught.The two of them walked down the stairs.In less than two sticks of incense, they arrived at a courtyard.The plaque on the door says Disciple Hall.Qingtan pushed the door open with her.Qingli discovered that there was a huge martial arts training ground inside.Five or six young novice monks aged seven or eight were already standing inside.They were wearing the same training clothes as Qingli.Standing in front was a young monk in his 20s.Qingli's sharp eyes noticed that the word "Heng" was embroidered on his collar.

Seeing the two people coming in, the monk came over and saluted: "Disciple Hengzhen has met two master uncles." The young novices behind him also said in unison: "Disciple has met two master uncles."

Qingli and Qingtan also joined hands and returned the greeting: "Amitabha."

Qingtan said: "Heng Zhen is the eldest disciple of Senior Brother Qinghui. Now he is here to teach new disciples. You can follow him to learn body training. I have to leave beforehand. If you have anything, you can go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to find the master. This afternoon is the master. I will teach you individually, and don’t forget to go to the Sutra Pavilion.”

Qingli nodded, and Qingtan left.Qing Li said to Heng Zhen: "Thank you, Nephew Master, for teaching me."

"Don't dare." Heng Zhen said humbly.Then he said to the little novice below: "All disciples, practice."

"Ha!" All the little monks shouted and started to move.

But the scene in front of him shocked Qingli.When she first heard about physical training, she thought it was like holding two buckets with tapered bottoms in both hands to fetch water, as she had seen on TV, or started boxing and martial arts.But now, these young monks twisted their bodies into various difficult images.This is obviously harder than the most difficult yoga on earth.Looking at the relaxed faces of this group of people, Qingli doubted whether she could do this movement that guaranteed the limit of human beings.

Qingli looked at Hengzhen, saw him smiling and said: "Little uncle, don't panic, this disciple will help you. All the nephews and nephews present came here in this way."

Qingli didn't know if it was her own psychology.She always felt that the smile on the face of the honest-looking Hengzhen had a hint of malicious intent.Soon, Qingli confirmed that her perception of people's emotions was as keen as ever.

Hengzhen really taught Qingli one move after another.But even though Qingli is still a child now, her body is much softer than that of an adult.But she still couldn't fully perform the movements that challenged the limits of human body distortion.At this time, Hengzhen came over and saluted first: "Uncle, I'm sorry." Then he mercilessly pressed Qingli's hands and feet to the exact position.

Except for the first time when Qingli cried out in pain, she held back and didn't make any more noises.After all, she is old inside.It is really embarrassing to cry out in pain in front of this group of young masters, nephews and grandchildren.After all, Qingli hasn't cultivated well yet, she is still a person who cares about face.So at this moment, she can only face the pain and suffer.

Qingli only felt that the time passed too slowly, and the sweat on her body had already soaked the practice clothes.At this moment, she is very soberly aware that it is not just Qingtan who is different from the outside.Except for the monks who came to study in the branch temple and the disciples who had just entered the temple not long ago, this Fahua Temple was cut black from top to bottom.

When Qingli finished her body training, her limbs were already shaking and she couldn't stand up.Seeing the group of little novice monks who were not sweating much looked at her curiously, Qingli couldn't help feeling a little hot on her face.After Hengzhen announced the disbandment, he sent Qingli back to her Buddhist monastery with a conscience.But Qingli has already recognized his black-bellied nature, and will no longer be deceived by his simple and honest appearance.

Qingli entered the house, took a change of monk's robes and went straight to the bathroom.After soaking in the Wugou Spring for a while, Qingli moved, and the bones in her whole body crackled.Then she felt extremely relieved.Qingli realized that the body-training method of Fahua Temple was definitely much better than the body-training methods practiced by outsiders.As expected of a place with plug-ins enabled!she likes.
