Buddhist enlightenment
Hongya people in Meizhou (now Sichuan) in the Tang Dynasty were famous for their mysterious dharma names and backward writing. At the age of eleven, he became a monk with Master Fatai and studied Nirvana Sutra. Two years later, at the invitation of the Prime Minister, he was promoted to the position of master in Daci Temple in Sichuan. At that time, there were tens of thousands of amateurs, all of whom were absorbed in listening to the law and were amazed. He was honored as "Bodhisattva Chen". Zhixuan got a full explanation from the lawyer who defended Zhen in Jingzhong Hall, and then he followed ankokuji's letter teacher to learn only knowledge, foreign classics and the theory of the Hundred Classics.
Wu Zong praised Taoism as a fairy, tasted the unique imperial edict in Linde Hall, and learned about the resistance of Xuan and Taoism. Knowing that Xuan was outspoken, Yu Feng only argued a few times and was convicted. Finally, although Wu Zong did not accept Zhixuan's advice, he still lamented Zhixuan's extraordinary knowledge.
When Xuanzong proclaimed himself emperor, Zhixuan was ordered to give lectures in ouchi, and was awarded the purple cassock, ranking first among the three religions. There is an ancient house in the temple, and the invitation ceremony learned that Xuanxuan lived in the jade pavilion in the temple. Xuanzong also allowed the reconstruction of abandoned temples in the world, and built Brahma Temple in Daxing, to which Zhixuan contributed.
In eight years, I learned the metaphysical chapter and begged to return to my hometown, benefiting a lot and countless times. Scholar-officials like to travel with teachers. Among them, Li Shangyin, a poet, has long admired Taoism and had the longest contact with metaphysics.
When Zhixuan became a monk, he met a strange monk suffering from a bad disease in the jungle of Shi Jing, who was ignored, so he patiently scrubbed, medicated and took care of his illness. After the sick monk recovered, he thanked Zhixuan for his virtue. When he left, he said to Zhixuan, "If there is any disaster in the future, you can find me under two pine trees in Jiulong Mountain, Pengzhou, Xishu."
In the future, Zhixuan will live in ankokuji, and his morality is notorious. In the 12th year of Tang Xiantong (87 1), Zong Yi paid a visit to the throne of Buddha, honored it as the Buddha, and gave it the throne of agarwood, with great respect for knowing the Xuan. One day, an enlightened Buddhist suddenly developed a sore on his knee. His eyebrows, eyes, mouth and teeth are all intact. Every time he is fed food, he opens his mouth and swallows it, just like ordinary people.
Buddhist doctors tried all over the world, but they couldn't cure him. When he was at a loss, he suddenly remembered what the sick monk said when he left, and went to Xishu alone and came to Jiulong Mountain. When the Buddha realized the purpose of his coming, the monk said, "Don't worry, I have a clear spring under the rock. Wash it with this clear spring tomorrow and you can get rid of the disease. " At dawn the next day, a boy came to the Xia Yan River with an enlightened Buddhist. Enlightened Buddhists were about to carry a stream to wash their sores. The sores on their faces shouted, "Don't wash them! You are a man of ancient and modern Broadcom. I wonder if you have read the story of Yuan Ang killing Chao Cuo in the East City in the history of the Western Han Dynasty? You are the reincarnation of Yuan Ang, and I am Chao Cuo who was beheaded by you. You have been looking for a chance to get revenge since the end of your life, but you have been a monk for ten years and have a strict precept, so you have no chance to do it. Until now, you have been favored by the emperor, gained fame and fortune, and lost your virtue, so I have a chance to become a sore on your face. Now the venerable Monkanoga is merciful and has washed away my sinful karma through samadhi. From now on, I will not entangle with your grievances. " Hearing this, the enlightened Buddhist sweated profusely and hurriedly scooped up water to take a bath. Suddenly, he felt a piercing pain and he choked. When I woke up, the sore on my knee had disappeared. I wanted to pay homage to the holy monk, but it also disappeared.
Enlightened Buddha knows the grace of the sage, so that he can avoid the injustice of having many lives and nights, and vows to repay the public. So I made three volumes of Confessions, which I read in the morning and evening to refine my life. When you are dying, you can predict when it will come. Later, this confession was named "Confession of Compassion Sanwei Water Scenic Area" because the venerable person used Sanweishui Scenic Resort to wash his face and relieve the grievances of past dynasties, and it has been circulated to this day.
