Chapter 39 second quarter

"Although I also think this is indeed one of the typical stories of the effectiveness of the "Lotus Sutra", but..." Boya seemed to be thinking about how to express his thoughts appropriately in words. "But what happened?" "Seimei, I always feel that the tongue of that skeleton keeps reciting the "Lotus Sutra" day after day in Mount Kumano, no matter autumn or winter. , but it feels a little scary.” "Of course." "Do you think so too?" "Yeah." Qingming smiled calmly on her red lips, looking at Boya. "If a person admires someone, sometimes he will turn into a ghost because of his excessive attachment."

"Well." "People who are too persistent will also turn into ghosts." "indeed……" "Reciting the "Lotus Sutra" enthusiastically in order to be reborn in bliss is actually a kind of attachment." "..." "The monk's persistence is probably very strong." "So, Seimei, the fact that the skeleton's tongue recites the Lotus Sutra is not actually very effective?" "No, it should be the monk's strong persistence that made the tongue continue to chant. This is probably also a kind of ghost." "Is it a ghost?"

"It's a ghost." Qingming nodded, looked at Boya again, and continued in a low voice: "But, Boya, that tongue..." "Tongue?" "Well, what a coincidence that you mentioned the skeleton tongue, which helped me a lot." "What's the meaning?" "Tongue." "Tongue?" "Skeletons." "Skeleton?" "I just ran into a very nerve-wracking problem." "yes?" "This problem is actually related to Todaiji Temple. Thanks to your tongue, I figured out how to deal with it." "What's the problem?"

"There is a monastery in Xijing called Zuizhao Temple." "I also know about that monastery." "About 80 years ago, Master Tsunedo, who was practicing at Todaiji Temple, founded Saishoji Temple. This master once received the empowerment of Monk Kukai..." "Well, Monk Kukai has a deep bond with Todaiji Temple..." "Master Chang Dao passed away seventy-five years ago, and the current abbot of the Zuizhao Temple is named Nin Jue..." "I've heard his name and seen him several times in the palace." "This year will be sixty-five years old, and it is this monk Ninjue who has encountered a wonderful thing."
