I!The Many Treasures Tathagata

Chapter 96 Your Majesty, Why Are You Rebelling?
"Ksitigarbha, I have a question in my mind. If you want to transform these ghosts, those who have not been infected and killed will naturally be transformed."

"But what about these ghosts? How should we deal with them?"

Duobao looked at the confused Ksitigarbha, and immediately asked while he was in a state of confusion.

When Ksitigarbha heard the words, he cleared up his confused mood a little bit, he knew that it was Duobao giving him hints.

"Buddhism is vast, all living beings are equal, and everyone can become a Buddha."

"As long as these ghosts have a little bit of kindness, they will naturally be transported to bliss."

Ksitigarbha clasped his hands together, thought for a moment, and then said.

When it comes to "everyone can become a Buddha", his face is even more pious, and his body is full of Buddha's light.

Obviously, in the mind of Dizang, he is very recognized and proud of the saying of Buddhism.

Because this is a pioneering advanced concept.

In the Taoist sect, immortals are not so easy to succeed, and wealth, law and earth are indispensable.

Not only one must be gifted and savvy, but one must also have a deep fortune, experience three disasters and nine disasters, and survive thunder and fire to become the most ordinary Sanxian.

Only the door of Buddhism opens the door of convenience, and all living beings can become Buddhas.

Comparing the two, the verdict is superior.

Therefore, it is not without reason that Buddhism can overwhelm Taoism in the spread of belief.

"Is it?"

"But didn't the Buddha say that karma is retribution?"

"These fierce ghosts committed countless evils during their lifetime, and committed heinous murders after their death. They planted all kinds of evil causes, but in the end, they were transformed by you and entered the Land of Ultimate Bliss.

"As for those who did good deeds and accumulated virtue during their lifetime, they were brutally persecuted by ghosts after death."

"Evil causes have positive results, and good causes have evil results. What's the truth?"

"You are doing good to the ghosts by turning them into ghosts, but is it fair to those innocent souls who died at the hands of ghosts?"

"Are you doing evil and helping the evildoers?"

"Before their souls flew away, they resented the injustice of the world, how can you resolve it?"

Duobao's words turned into sharp swords that radiated cold light and pierced into Dizang's heart.

Buddhism has always preached that if you do good deeds in this life, you will be rewarded with blessings in the next life.

But now, it's just the opposite.

"Let the knife cut down and become a Buddha."

"The perpetrators of evil in life are deeply troubled by obsession after death. They turn into ghosts and kill countless people, destroying their own yin, virtue and fortune. This is the evil cause and the evil result."

"But they have a little kindness in their hearts and can be influenced by their disciples. This is a good cause, and they can finally get the good fruit of entering bliss."

Jizo thought for a longer and longer time, and explained reluctantly.

"That innocent soul was brutally killed, how should I explain it?"

Duobao asked.

Ksitigarbha was silent, and the Buddha's heart, which had been calm and clear, also trembled.

Because he couldn't answer this question.

If he died just doing good deeds, he can also explain that it is because of the accumulation of blessings that he will be reincarnated early in the next life to enjoy the blessings.

But now, these innocent ghosts have lost their souls and have no chance of reincarnation.

In Ksitigarbha's mind, Duobao's deafening question kept echoing. He kept asking himself, is my great wish right?
Is Duhua Ligui doing good or evil?

Jizo's heart is messed up!
"There are countless evils, but just a little kindness can lead to righteous results."

"Doing good and accumulating virtue, but you have to go through hardships before you can get the right result. If you have bad luck for a while, you may also encounter disasters and die halfway."

"If this is the case, all living beings in the world should do evil. Compared with doing good and accumulating virtue, the chances of achieving positive results are much greater."

Duobao sneered sarcastically.

"The disciple is stupid and can't find a solution, so he asks the Buddha to clarify his doubts."

"But this disciple knows one thing. It's because there's no one in the underworld, and there's a lack of order. That's why such a tragedy happened."

"The practice of Buddhism is the most important thing, so the disciples want to enter the underworld and find ways to solve the problem fundamentally."

Ksitigarbha couldn't answer Duobao's question, but he had a firm mind, avoided the most important and ignored the less important, and directly pointed out the root cause of the problem, thus stabilizing his Buddha's mind.

At the same time, Ksitigarbha kowtowed and respectfully greeted Duobao as a disciple. He wanted to know, what would Duobao do?
"There is no one in the underworld, so it should be to strengthen management, establish order, reward good and punish evil."

"Instead of collating all of them into Buddhism."

"I entered the underworld this time because I wanted to become Yama of the Ten Temples and judge merits and demerits."

"Establish eighteen layers of hell to punish these ghosts who committed heinous crimes."

Duo Bao said loudly, and at the same time behind him, the scene of the ten halls of Yama and the eighteen levels of hell evolved.

"Ten halls of hell? Eighteen levels of hell?"

"Is it too cruel, against the compassionate heart of Buddhism!"

Ksitigarbha looked at the scenes of mountains of swords and seas of fire, pans of oil and tongues pulled out in the eighteen levels of hell, with a look of unbearable expression on his face.

"Buddhism has a heart of compassion, and it should also have the means of thunderbolt."

"Buddhism should not be a place to hide filth."

"If it is true that everyone can become a Buddha."

"Then why do you need a Buddha?"

"If it is true that all beings are equal."

"Why does the Buddha still stand high and accept the worship of the world?"

Duobao's words caused a severe impact on Jizo's inner values.

"Buddha, are you the Tathagata Buddha?"

Jizo could no longer keep his face calm, and looked at Duobao with wide eyes in astonishment.

He almost said, "Your Majesty, why do you want to rebel?"

"Dharma is neither true nor false, and people have good and evil."

"Ksitigarbha, you must know that Buddhism is Buddhism, and Buddhism is Buddhism."

"Whether it is a Buddha or a Taoist, the essence of heaven and earth is the same, and all paths lead to the same goal."

"Buddha is the faith given by the strong to the weak!"

"Tao is the pursuit of the peak for the bottom!"

"My generation of practitioners, we are going against the sky, we must not trust anyone superstitiously."

"One must dare to question all authority in order to find the truth in the world."

"Because I am the Tathagata Buddha and the contemporary head teacher of Buddhism, I should go back to the source, pursue the truth of Buddhism, and practice what is a real Buddha!"

Duobao looked at Jizo meaningfully.

Ksitigarbha muttered, "Dharma is Dharma, Buddhism is Buddhism", "Dare to question all authority".

He clasped his hands together, and his originally confused eyes gradually brightened up.

He is a true Buddhist believer, and he is fundamentally different from Buddhist practitioners such as Ran Deng and Ci Hang who pursue power.

In the past, he didn't approve of many things about Buddhism.

But because he was in Buddhism, and he admired and trusted Jieyin, Zhunti had never objected, so he could only keep these objections in his heart.

Buddhism is established through guidance and approval, and the practices they approve are authority in the heart of Ksitigarbha.

Even if he couldn't get used to it, he thought it was because he didn't practice enough, so he couldn't understand the true good intentions of guiding and guiding.

But no matter how he practiced and enlightened, he still couldn't let go, and couldn't understand many practices of Buddhism.

As time passed, his heart became more and more depressed.

This may be one of the reasons why he wanted to come to the underworld.

Out of sight is pure, compared to Buddhism, he is more willing to stay in this underworld where the sun is never seen and evil spirits are rampant, because it is more real here.

For a long time, Jizo dared not face his own heart.

Now all the defensive camouflage has been directly penetrated by Duobao's sharp words.

Yes, Buddha was right.

Dizang's heart suddenly brightened.

Buddhism is Buddhism, and Buddhism is Buddhism.

The Dharma is there, but everyone understands it differently.

Amitabha Buddha and Zhunti Buddha Mother are the forerunners of Buddhism, but it does not mean that their understanding of Buddhism is all correct.

I believe in Buddhism, and I should pursue the truth of the world with a pure heart.

Right is right, wrong is wrong.
