Chapter 15 fourteenth cloud above

One day, Brother Zhiyuan, a lay disciple who was a real estate developer in Shanghai, came to the temple. He was accompanied by a benefactor named Liu. The smoking cessation brother said that this benefactor Liu is his friend, and he has had some bad luck recently. Everything in life is not going well, and he has encountered a lot of troubles in his career and family. Brother Quit Smoking once tried to unravel Liu's benefactor. For this reason, he specially found a few Buddhist scriptures for Liu's benefactor to read, but it didn't work at all.Brother Quit Smoking was afraid that Benefactor Liu would get sick if he was bored for a long time, so he brought him to Tianming Temple in a hurry.

Master Zhiyuan was also very concerned about Donor Liu's affairs. Master patiently asked about various problems encountered by Donor Liu, and then gave him many real-life examples to enlighten him.It's just that Liu benefactor is obviously not in the state. Even though the examples given by Master are quite convincing, Liu benefactor always looks absent-minded. Master Zhiyuan suddenly said: "Benefactor Liu, you can't do this by relying on enlightenment alone, because from the appearance, your fortune is not good. If you want to change this situation, you can only take some medicine."

After Master Zhi Yuan finished speaking, the brothers Jie Chen and Jie Smoking who were watching were shocked, because everyone had never seen Master Zhi Yuan showing a person's physiognomy. Jie An really felt that Master Zhiyuan's approach was too different from usual, Jie An felt that these words were more like words from a quack warlock, but he didn't know what Master Zhiyuan had planned, so he held back No comment. However, these words aroused the interest of Benefactor Liu, and he asked Master Zhiyuan very interestedly. Master Zhiyuan took a piece of paper from the bookshelf and handed it to Benefactor Liu, saying, "You can take the medicine according to the prescription on it."

Benefactor Liu happily took the paper, looked at it over and over for a long time, and his face became gloomy again. Quitting Anger and Quitting Smoking couldn't help being curious. They poked their heads to look at the piece of paper in Liu's benefactor's hand, but only saw a piece of ordinary letter paper with no words on it. Benefactor Liu looked at Master Zhiyuan suspiciously. Master Zhiyuan smiled and said, "When the sun shines, Donor Liu takes the paper to the sun and reads it, and you can see the words on it." Benefactor Liu put away the paper suspiciously. It rained continuously for the next few days. Since the sky hadn't cleared up yet, benefactor Liu naturally didn't see what was written on the paper, but perhaps because he had hope in his heart, his mood improved a lot.In those few days, Liu benefactor often accompanied the smoking cessation brother to talk about Zen in the Buddhist hall.

After a few more days, the rain finally stopped and the sun came out. When Jiechen entered Master's Zen room that day, he saw Liu benefactor holding the piece of paper and asking strangely: "Master Zhiyuan, why can't I see the prescription on the paper after the sun comes out?" Master Zhiyuan smiled and asked him back: "Benefactor Liu, you have been in a good mood these days, do you know why?" Benefactor Liu said, "Because there is a prescription given by Master." Master Zhiyuan asked again: "But I told you that you can only see the prescription in the sun, and it has been raining for the past few days. Why can you still maintain a good mood?"

Benefactor Liu said: "Because I know that the sky will always be sunny and the sun will always come out, and I will definitely be able to see the prescription." As Benefactor Liu was talking, he suddenly laughed. Only then did Jie Chen realize that Master Zhi Yuan had played a joke with Master Liu this time.He can only hope that Benefactor Liu knows that we often look up and look forward to the sunshine, but often things don't work out.At that moment, all you could see was the cloud, but one thing is for sure, when the wind blows that cloud away, the sun will come out because it is always on top of the cloud.
