Chapter 785: Controversy between Buddhism and Taoism

"Ananda? This name doesn't sound good, I feel like I've been suffering from disaster all my life." Daoyi shook his head when he heard the words, and said with a serious face.

Ananda didn't get angry either, and put his hands together and said calmly: "Although it is named Ananda, it means more joy and joy. This is consistent with the Dharma preached by my Buddha.

Saying "Oh", he seemed to understand something, looking silly, he asked again: "I said Monk Ananda, why are all monks in the Western Regions? Why don't you come out?"

Ananda said, "It's like most Taoist disciples are in the Southern Territory."

Daoyi nodded thoughtfully, and said, "But why don't you come out? I didn't see a monk or a temple along the way. Taoist temples are not uncommon."

"This is also the purpose of the poor monk this time, to preach the Dharma." Ananda said patiently.

Daoyi said "Oh" again, and said, "But everyone here believes in Taoism and is not interested in your Dharma at all. I think you will come for nothing, so I advise you not to waste time. Now, it’s fine to practice Buddhism with care."

Ananda still calmly said, “I’m not interested because I don’t understand at all. If the world doesn’t understand, it’s even more important to preach. Only by preaching the Dharma and letting the world know that the Buddha is merciful and that the Buddha can universalize everyone, then naturally there will be people. believe."

"You monk is quite stubborn. You said that the Buddha can save sentient beings. Did all the people of the Western Regions be universal? Have they all entered the Paradise of Paradise after death? Is every Western Region person kind?" I asked several questions, and the questions were very specific.

Ananda recites a Buddha's name and says: "In what kind of environment can people do what they do. The Western Regions are shrouded by Buddhism. Everyone in the Western Regions has Buddha in their hearts, so they are naturally committed to kindness."

"Then you mean, as long as this Southern Territory is enveloped by Buddhism, everyone will be good, and our Dao Fa can't do it?" Dao Yi retorted, sitting on the back of the cow with a carefree expression.

And the blue cow was also facing the Dao Fa side, and couldn't help but let out a loud cry.

Many people on the street saw Daoyi, a bull rider, argued with Buddhism Ananda, and they were all enthusiastically watching the excitement.

Dao Yi is a disciple of Dao Sect, so it can be regarded as the representative of Dao Sect, and Ananda represents Buddhism, so this debate naturally becomes a dispute between Buddhism and Taoism.

"Unexpectedly, this bull riding guy looks stupid, and his mouth is pretty good. If this monk can be speechless this time, I would rather listen to the sound of his herding flute." Said the Taoist priest.

"How can our Dao Sect let a monk from the Western Regions be transformed into a monk, and that's it?"

"The ambition of Buddhism is too great. It is absolutely impossible for him to promote **** Buddhism here. What is my Buddha's mercy. If the Buddha is really compassionate, then Buddhism didn't take action during the era of the Great Destruction and the last great crisis? So many people in our human race have died, is this the mercy of Buddhism?" Someone said angrily.

In short, most people think that although the Buddhism of the Western Regions is mysterious, it is also very rare to be able to see a monk, but the two huge crises of the Human Race did not appear, which made everyone dissatisfied.

"The Buddhist monks of the Western Regions only believe in Amitabha and Shakyamuni. Their beliefs are single-minded and the Dharma is the same. Therefore, the beliefs are deeper and there will be no differences. The Dao Fa is strong, but there are too many factions and they are independent. Communication, cannot be united, this is the biggest problem of Taoism." Ananda said.

Dao sat cross-legged on the green bull. Hearing Ananda's words, he smiled and said, "We are profound and profound, and let a hundred flowers blossom. Let them develop freely. Only then can we have greater innovation and For progress, although Buddhism and Buddhism are unified, there is no open mind, and there is no room for improvement after all. Although our orthodox traditions are complicated, we never leave it alone."

"Good point!" After Daoyi said this, someone watching the excitement couldn't help but cheer.

Dao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, without a look of triumph. He looked at Ananda calmly, and continued: "You have turned the Western Regions into the Pure Land of Buddhism, and everyone has become Buddhism believers. Buddhism's thinking lies in them. His heart is solid, that is, he doesn't want Dao Sects to take advantage of it."

"You now want to open up the situation, not satisfied with the Western Regions. You want to spread the branches and leaves only in the Southern Region or the Northern Regions and Eastern Regions, and slowly turn the human world into a Buddhist pure land like the Western Regions. To be honest, It's hard! This is not my nonsense. If Buddhism can open up its mind and let the Taoism spread, then the Taoism will naturally not exclude the Dharma."

Daoyi said with a dignified expression: "And this is only one of the reasons, and another reason is that the human world has experienced two huge crises, one was the chaotic period of the Six Realms before the Chaos Era. Call it the era of great disillusionment, and there was a great crisis more than ten years ago."

"These two crises have occurred, and there are countless human casualties. Only one mysterious Buddhist disciple has appeared in Buddhism. There was no strong person in the Western Regions during the last major crisis. This makes people very chilling, whether it is Taoism or Buddhism, in the final analysis. They are all human races, but you don't care about the life and death of the other three human races and stick to the Western Regions."

"You said that your Buddha's compassion is to universally save all living beings. Could it be that this is how you universalize all living beings, or that this is what your Buddha calls compassion?"

Daoyi said this, his eyes were a little red, and he took a deep breath and continued: "Let's talk about the great crisis of more than ten years ago, the weak movement and the countless casualties in the Northern Territory. Basically, there are not many people who are alive. It can be said that there are millions of corpses and blood is flowing into rivers. Where was your Buddha at that time?"

"Looking at the scene of a million corpses and being indifferent, is your Buddha so compassionate?" Daoyi stared straight at Ananda, as if questioning.

Although Daoyi's remarks were very calm, everyone was silent when it came to everyone's heart. After Daoyi finished speaking, it took a few breaths before he recovered.

At this moment, they were even more angry with Buddhism's ruthlessness! The Buddhism accumulated over so many years is absolutely profound, even if there are a few powerful Western Region Buddhas, it will definitely kill a lot of people.

However, the ruthless Western Regions are not out there alone, which really chills the hearts of the human race. At this moment, saying that I am compassionate in front of them is equivalent to farting to them.

"This Daoyi can really say, and I can say so much without breathing. It is reasonable and well-founded. It is really impossible to refute anything." Fei Tianhu couldn't help but face this sloppy Daoyi who was riding a bull. enjoy.

"This one looks silly, and I didn't expect to be serious, and his lip service is not inferior." Yun Fan also heard that he was filled with righteous indignation, but he soon calmed down.

After listening to Daoyi's words, Ananda just folded his hands together, chanted a Buddha's name, and walked out of the inn silently.

Ananda walked towards the gate of the city. He did not look back and disappeared in Xiancheng.

This debate, Daoyijiang Ananda could not refute it, made everyone happy and regarded Daoyi as a hero. Even now Daoyi played a shepherd flute, they thought it was wonderful.

Daoyi's eyes were slightly red, and watching Ananda disappeared, he took a deep breath and said to himself: "Buddhist or Dao, in the end, it should be for the benefit of the world and people, not for personal benefit. ."

After Dao sighed, he couldn't help but took out the animal husbandry flute, put it to his mouth and started playing.

Many people saw this scene as if they were facing an enemy.

"What you said, if Daoyi made the monk speechless, just listen to Dao and play the flute." A guy pointed at the middle-aged Daoist who had spoken before and ran away.

The middle-aged Taoist priest wanted to cry without tears, how could he say such a thing, he felt bitter in his heart and felt sorry for his ears.

The people who were watching the excitement also had an urge to escape, but before they ran away, they heard the melodious flute sound coming from the shepherd flute.

The flute sound was no longer such an unpleasant noise, but a real musical sound. The sound was melodious and clear, which caused many people who were about to flee to stop and listen.

The sound of this flute makes people feel as if they are in the countryside, with a kind of open-minded feeling, the whole person is relaxed and happy, can forget a lot of annoying things, and relax the whole body.

"The sound of this flute is so nice. It turns out that this Daoyi is not only a noise, but also a herd flute." Someone couldn't help but said.

The flute sounded long, one song ended, and many people were still thinking about it, and Tao Yi had already disappeared in front of the inn on the green bull. After everyone was awake, Tao Yi had already gone far away, and only the bull was visible. Fuzzy figure.

"This Daoyi is really unpredictable." Fei Tianhu sighed. He planned to tell Ye Chen about this as soon as possible, and Ye Chen would be very interested in it.

Sanqing Holy Land Houshan Thatched Cottage.

Flying Tiger sitting on a stone bench outside the house, playing with a chess piece limitedly, said: "Little Ye Chen, let me tell you, that monk in purple robe is Ananda, one of the ten disciples of the Buddha. He came Propagating Buddhism, the results were overwhelmingly rebuttable by those words, and finally left in silence."

When Ye Chen heard this, he opened his eyes and asked with great interest: "Let's listen, what's the matter?"

Fei Tianhu told Ye Chen everything he saw in Xiancheng. After Ye Chen heard it, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "This Dao Yi is indeed not a simple character, and neither will Ananda. So simple to leave."
