Chapter 687 Dharma Aspect Miraculous
Maitreya Body did not answer the question of Abbot Tianyun, but asked, "What do fellow Daoists think Golden Body is?"
"Golden Body?" Abbot Tianyun did not expect that he would ask himself this question. He was stunned for a moment, but still replied, "Golden Body is the foundation of Dharma Aspect, and it is the most important part of Thunderclap Temple's practice."
"That's what Fellow Daoist said." Maitreya Body nodded, "Then from Fellow Daoist's point of view, Golden Body, is it me or Non-Self?"
Abbot Tianyun was still a little confused, but after all, he had understood Thunderclap Method for dozens of hundreds of years. He chewed on Maitreya Body's question in a low voice, and unconsciously a look of understanding appeared on his face.
Maitreya Body looked at <Formless Golden Body> in his hand again, still feeling a little amazed in his heart.
Thunderclap Temple monk started from the Nascent Soul Realm. He is not cultivating Primordial Spirit, nor is he cultivating the physical body, but the so-called Golden Body.
Cultivation Method is actually very complicated, but the principle is very simple:
The desire of the believers affects the monks themselves too much. This Golden Body is almost equivalent to a firewall, and even has the function of a broiler.
But this is not the most powerful part of this method.
The most powerful thing is that Golden Body is the fusion of the monk's body and Law Power, which naturally fits the monk himself. Therefore, it is extremely easy for the monk to use this Golden Body, which is no more troublesome than the Yang Spirit or Dharma Body of the monk Eastern Continent.
In essence, Golden Body can be said to be a special kind of Incense Power treasure. It is very similar to Sun-Moon Bell of Heavenly Emperor Body, and it is also like the natal treasure of Venerable Tianhe.
It's just that this Law Treasure has a very special function, which is to bear Incense Power's desires for the monks and at the same time act as a physical body.
"Golden Body is actually cast by believer Incense Power, so for monks, it is the phase of no-self." Abbot Tianyun also understood, "But it is indeed a part of the monks, so it is also called the phase of no-body, which is the so-called Non-Self is not selfless."
Maitreya Body laughed and praised, "You can teach me."
Tianyun The abbot could not help but grin, as if he was a little proud. Then his whole body froze, and the corners of his mouth drooped as he looked at Maitreya Body:
I've been enlightened for decades, why should I praise you?
Who teaches whom?
Is this right?
On the one hand, he felt itchy and wanted to hear more about Maitreya Body's views. On the other hand, he felt a little dissatisfied with Qi Ingestion, and then asked, "What do you mean by either death or immortality?"
"This is the strongest point of this kind of Thunderclap Method. I think Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor is probably the result of this Grand Unity."
To be honest, Golden Body is not too shocking compared to today's Maitreya Body.
"Non-Self is not him, refers to Golden Body. That is neither death nor life, refers to Dharma Aspect."
"Dharma Aspect?"
Abbot Tianyun became more and more confused and puzzled. After all, he was just Nascent Soul. Even though he was valued by others, he rarely thought about the nature of Dharma Aspect.
"Dharma Aspect are the Golden Body left behind after the Dao Fruit monk passed away. They are corpses, but because Pure Land will not die, they are said to be neither dead nor alive."
This is not difficult to understand. Abbot Tianyun nodded repeatedly.
"But the magic of Dharma Aspect is not in this, but in the inheritance."
"Inheritance?"
"For example, after Thunderclap Temple a Buddhist School monk of True Immortal level dies, the Golden Body he leaves behind will become Dharma Aspect, one of the Pure Land."
"In the future, if this monk practices Tribulation-Transference Method and comes back reincarnated, it can become this monk's foundation and help him achieve enlightenment quickly."
"What if this monk does not come back reincarnated?"
"The monks who practice the same Cultivation Method may also inherit this Dharma Aspect." Maitreya Body exhaled slowly, "Because from the beginning, Golden Body does not belong to a certain monk, but to a certain belief. To a certain extent, it is public."
Tianyun Abbot was stunned and murmured, "Can it still be like this?"
Maitreya Body also had some emotion in his tone. "There is no self and no other, neither death nor life. These eight words are enough for Thunderclap Temple to be passed down from generation to generation and talents come out in large numbers."
"This----"
Tianyun The abbot closed his mouth, but his expression was very strange. He could only say one sentence on his face. If I were Thunderclap Temple, I would have cursed you!
It's really outrageous.
Tianyun Abbot had another doubt. "In this case, shouldn't Thunderclap Temple have wiped out other sects long ago?"
"Pure Land." Maitreya Body shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's the restriction of Pure Land that prevents Thunderclap Temple from accumulating Dharma Aspect infinitely. It's even more impossible now."
This thing is good in every aspect, but there is one problem: it is almost entirely based on Pure Land - as a Sage relic, the exaggerated performance of Pure Land is justified.
It is precisely because of this that if something goes wrong with Pure Land, the foundation of Thunderclap Temple will collapse.
What's even more unfortunate is that Pure Land was a big pit from the beginning, and there was also a Earth Emperor Corpse hidden in the pit.
If he were Thunderclap Buddha Ancestor, it wouldn't be bad enough.
After listening to Maitreya Body's narration, Abbot Tianyun was already 90% convinced that Maitreya Body had really understood <Formless Golden Body> in a short period of time, and his attitude couldn't help but become more sincere.
He adjusted his mentality quickly and actually started asking Maitreya Body for advice.
Although Maitreya Body has not revealed his true identity, his accumulation is so profound that even just some of Nascent Soul's previous insights are enough to make Abbot Tianyun obsessed.
For seven or eight days in a row, Abbot Tianyun just remembered something. He returned to the guest house, picked up another rosary, and input spiritual power. A condescending and slightly irritable question came to his ears, "Didn't you stay there Universal Salvation Temple? Something happened?"
"Nothing." Abbot Tianyun said quickly, "It's just that I passed <Formless Golden Body> to Maitreya the day before yesterday, and I felt that there was something I wanted to report to you, sir----"
"Now when do you bother me with such a trivial matter?"
The voice of the man in monk's robes over there was a little impatient. Abbot Tianyun's heart skipped a beat. He was also shocked by Maitreya's simple opinion. He got excited and then reported back to the Lord.
But now War of the Four Buddhas, adults need to go everywhere to arrange things, and are very busy, and really have no time to care about monks like Maitreya with average cultivation.
Seeing his silence, the other party paused, but seemed to be curious, and asked, "You are not an unreasonable person, tell me what Maitreya did."
"Yes!"
Abbot Tianyun said quickly, "That Maitreya told me today----"
He briefly talked about what Maitreya Body had said to him during this period. Because he was afraid that the other party would be impatient, he only said a little bit of what he felt was the most important.
"Neither life nor death, Non-Self is not him." There was silence for a moment, and then he suddenly asked, "Did he really only look at Jade Slip for half a day? Did he realize this?"
"No."
For some reason, he felt like he heard a gentle exhale.
"He just watched it for half an hour."
, there was another long silence, Tianyun the abbot thought the adult on the opposite side had already left.
"Tell me everything he said to you, and don't miss it."
Tianyun The abbot looked at the rosary in his hand blankly, and suddenly understood - it depends on who has the time.
