Chapter 100 Section 1

Benbojia Living Buddha did not give up his bid for the post, and was ready to continue to fight against Lama Guru Qiuze.For him, this is an inevitable choice. Anyway, he has already failed, so it is better to fight again, maybe there is a possibility of a comeback.If he still fails in the fourth test, it will be the real ending. He will have to "go home", leave his position as the leader of Shannan Tantric Dharma, give up his qualification as a living Buddha who can be reincarnated, and return to the monastery where he studied scriptures in his childhood or youth. Live the life of a low-level lama who cannot have any promotion in his life.

Lama Guru Qiuze knew that the other party would be desperate for the fourth exam, so he came to the mandala of the Potala Palace several times, hoping to get advice from the great living Buddha Vaj Gongga, but he did not see the teacher several times figure.The last thing I saw was a wooden lotus stool and a blank scripture paper.The lotus stool represents visualization, the blank space represents the deity, and the scripture paper represents speech.Guru Qiu Ze understood, and the respected master said, visualize your deity, you are the spokesperson of your deity.So he sat on the lotus stool in the mandala hall and visualized Tsangyang Gyatso until the exam came.

The way of the fourth exam is that the two contenders for the position of the Great Living Buddha on the peak of the Potala Palace are in the middle, and the examiners and Geshe Lamas around them ask questions at will. Individuals, two people rush to answer, or answer in turn.In the end, the judges vote to determine the winners. The Chiming Buddha Hall in the Potala Palace once again became the examination room.Different from the previous three exams, the nine examiners sat in front of the bronze statue of Padmasambhava and the silver statue of Tsongkhapa respectively, as if they had the same solemnity, love and wrath as the statues.There is no longer a distance of ten meters between the two respondent seats, but very close together.The majestic three-foot tin rod was placed in front of Geshe Lama's seat.Everyone was quiet, and the atmosphere was somewhat chilling and dull.

The elder Nyima examiner first asked: "What is the Dharma? What is the Buddha-nature?" Living Buddha Benbojia replied immediately: "Buddhism is the way to become a Buddha and save people. The Buddha-nature is the treasure of the Tathagata that is shared by all people and is not stained by guest dust." Guru Qiu Ze Lama said loudly: "I think that the Dharma is virtue. If the virtue is high, the Dharma is high. For example, the four methods are the fundamental virtues of charity, loving words, good deeds and altruism. Buddha nature is self-nature. , the self-nature is human nature, the love of human nature is the love of Buddha-nature, and the hatred of human nature is the hatred of Buddha-nature.”

A Geshe asked, "Does the Buddha have hatred?" Guru Qiu Ze said: "Buddha hate has no love, no heart, no compassion." A Geshe asked: "The supreme secret door is kept secret, and if it is revealed, it will be invalid. Guru Qiu Ze Lama, are you not afraid that it will be in vain when you publicly announce the 'Gate of the Seven Tara'?" Guru Chiu Ze said: "'The Door of the Seven Tara' is the most convenient method. There are two kinds of things that can be said and those that cannot be said. What I said is something that can be said. It is open, magnanimous, and upright."

One Geshe asked, "Then what is the unspeakable?" Guru Qiu Ze said: "Naturally, what cannot be said cannot be asked." He put his hands on his chest, opened his mouth half-open and did not speak, with an air of silence. A Geshe asked, "What does Living Buddha Benbojia think about the Dharma that can be said?" Ben Bojia said: "Everyone knows that Tibetan monks gave the great empowerment of the Supreme Tantra "Hevajra" to the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, and granted the two-body practice method. The imperial court recruited women from the people, and practiced pornography. The filthy deeds of the monarchs and ministers are said to be the realm of filthy practice and lotus cultivation, in the desire to practice meditation, and everything is unimpeded. In Tibet, there are monks who use the excuse of practicing "Fu Zang Mi Dharma" to recruit women to be enlightened mothers. Concubine, indulging in sexual madness, the pure monastery has almost become a secular home for men and women. Tsongkhapa reformed religion, swept away obscenity and corruption, and only then has today's holy religion. Guru Qiu Ze Lama To publicize the "Gate of the Seven Tara" with the double practice of men and women, if it is not hoped that the holy religion will return to before Tsongkhapa, it is also a shame on our ancestors of the Yellow Sect. A lama is still qualified to succeed the Potala Is it the Great Living Buddha of the Gongfeng seat?"

An examiner asked, "Guru Qiu Ze Lama, do you admit that you have recited your master and ancestor?" Guru Qiu Ze said: "My deity is the sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso. Tsangyang Gyatso is the disciple of Patriarch Tsongkhapa and the first Buddha revered by the great living Buddha Vaje Gongga. How can it be said that the former Buddhas revered by the disciples and teachers are the original deities? We know that the development of Buddhism first has the Hinayana that only cares about self-cultivation to become a Buddha, and then there is the Mahayana that not only becomes a Buddha by oneself but also saves all living beings. But regardless of the Hinayana or Mahayana, it takes a long process to become a Buddha—three asankh kalpas, and the number of years for one asankh kalpa is equal to 1 followed by 59 zeros. This means that there is no hope of becoming a Buddha, and you are in the six realms of reincarnation It is impossible to reach the sentient beings in the world. So Sakyamuni Buddha told us that according to the practice of the third vehicle, it is possible to become a Buddha in the world. The third vehicle is the Vajrayana, which is Tantric Buddhism. It brings hope, and in the name of "convenience", it introduces the wonderful union of men and women and worldly love into salvation. Therefore, there is a place for emotional life in Buddhism in ancient India and Tibet. This is the transformation of human nature to Buddha nature. , is a revolution of Buddhism and a great contribution to mankind. A huge evolution has begun since then. My deity, Tsangyang Gyatso, is a milestone in the great evolution. Tsangyang Gyatso combines the instinct of love with the Buddha of bliss , All Dharma One Blindness and Wonderful One Blindness are integrated to pursue the equality of male and female yin and yang, the equality of convenience and prajna, the equality of Buddha's mind and self-nature, and achieve the Buddha way of enlightenment and practice through the way of loving each other. "

A Geshe asked, "But we still don't know the difference between becoming a Buddha through fornication and becoming a Buddha through dual cultivation?" Ben Bojia said: "Perhaps there is no difference. The 'Seven Tara Gate' is the way to chaos." Guru Qiu Ze said: "In the empowerment of the deity Tsangyang Gyatso, the hand-knotted mudra is the secret of the body, the mantra is the secret of the language, and the visualization of the heart is the secret of the mind. Therefore, the Great Sun Tathagata is transformed into a symbol representing the secret of the body. The Tathagata of Body Light, the Tathagata of Sad Light representing the denseness of speech, and the Tathagata of Light of Heart representing the denseness of the heart. The three Tathagatas appear in the form of goddesses, fierce and fearful, and extremely fierce, because they not only want to produce the great joy of wonderful union, but also suppress The enjoyment of gross desires; they are the guarantee to sever self, severance of worldly thoughts, and severance of greed, hatred, and ignorance. To practice dual luck, you must first cultivate the three Buddhas. If you do not achieve the three Buddhas, you will not find dual cultivation and dual luck Therefore, the "Seven Tara Gate" completely eliminates the possibility of going into evil ways, and the existence of the Three Tathagatas is the difference between fornication and degeneration and double cultivation to become a Buddha."

There was silence.Everyone was thinking about the words of Guru Chiew Tse Lama. Suddenly a Geshe asked, "If a person cannot experience the bliss of wonderful union, how can he become a Buddha instantly and save sentient beings?" Guru Qiu Ze solemnly raised his right hand, stretched out his left hand, clapped loudly and said: "Change tiger food to sheep food, change sitting meditation to lying meditation, and change mantras to body mantras." A Geshe asked, "Guru Chiu Tse Lama, please elaborate?" Guru Qiu Ze said: "First of all, let's talk about changing tiger food to sheep food: those who practice the 'Seven Tara Gate' must eat vegetarian food. Vegetarian food nourishes the yin and emptiness, and the yin and emptiness are full of yang. Let's talk about changing sitting meditation to lying meditation..." He said and started to move, "Lie flat, with knees facing outwards, calves facing inwards, soles of feet facing soles of feet, heels touching the yin chakra, hands in meditation mudra, supported by hip bones and the back of the head, and hanging on the back. , the back lands on the ground, circulates qi in the liver and kidney meridians, and then massages. Overlap the hands, push along the Ren meridian to the transverse bone, countless times, until the fire burns; then use two palms to push up from the ribs until the two palms are closed , Countless times, until the fire burns; then press the right palm on the reproductive chakra, rotate clockwise, countless times, until the fire burns." He stopped talking, stopped, and observed everyone's reactions.

Geshe quickly asked, "Then what is changing a mantra into a body mantra?" Guru Chiu Ze said: "Using the vajra pestle to pierce the five sense organs is the body mantra of Red Tara; This is the body mantra of Black Tara; use the vajra pestle to store the enlightenment channel, which is the body mantra of Green Tara; Pricking the spleen veins of the bird's legs and the lung veins of the ant's waist is the body mantra of Blue Tara; using a vajra pestle to prick the veins of the snake's eyes and the black kidney is the body mantra of White Tara. After that, you can enter Buddhahood The way of salvation."

Some examiners said: "It sounds encouraging, but the road is so dangerous that you should not enter it lightly." Guru Qiu Ze said: "No, the danger in the practice no longer exists, the compulsive and destructive nature of love has become active and cultivated, and all the ferocious, fearful, and evil gods have become love and desire to protect the Dharma. Itself. Sexual union without sexuality, emptiness but not emptiness, the 'enemy' instantly becomes bodhicitta, and bodhicitta is a sun and a moon under the canopy, becoming a symbol of male and female poles, you are the vajra body, She is a rainbow body. The wave of blessings rolls in, complete, pure, calm, open, and the mood and gentle attitude of being kind to others show an indescribable picture, that is, the state of Shambhala, that is, reaching the other shore, Completed the 'six paramitas' - you are first a model of generosity including financial giving, fearless giving, and law-giving; The model of praise, cold and heat, and illness; the fourth is the model of diligence, that is, dedication to the Dharma, and brave salvation; the fifth is the model of meditation, that is, meditation, tranquility, indifference, and detachment; A model of medical skills, logic, and Buddhist principles. At this point, one's own cultivation is basically completed, and one can enter the fourth gate of the 'Gate of Seven Tara'." Geshe asked eagerly, "Please tell me about the fourth door." Guru Qiu Ze said: "Entering the fourth door means becoming a Buddha in one body and in the world. The practitioners of the 'Seven Tara Gate' use lust for salvation, but lust is not the goal at any time, even to save themselves. And becoming a Buddha by the way of Tara is not the purpose. The real purpose is to benefit the people, save all living beings, and let the bodhicitta obtained through the operation of the "enemy" cover the people as much as possible. Therefore, the "Gate of the Seven Tara" is the body Becoming a Buddha has two meanings: self-accomplishment and becoming another. Since you can transfer your joy to the feelings of the concubine Ming, you can also integrate the joy into the boundless compassion by only relying on visualization and Dharma, and bring great joy Pass the bliss and bliss to all the people who are depressed, sad, painful, and desperate. That is to transfer the joy of the Buddha to everyone, make everyone happy, and make all the moments full of joy. This is called instant Buddhahood, which is true. Ultimate bliss is the fundamental purpose of practicing Shatu Samadhi." An examiner asked, "Living Buddha Benbojia, what kind of enlightenment do you have for esoteric practice?" Ben Bojia said: "Shenjing, Tianyan, Fate, and other minds are the foundation of my practice. In the enlightenment of Shenjing, I met with Bodhisattvas of the tenth place; in the enlightenment of Tianyan, I have so far I saw the internal organs of sixteen people and healed their diseases; in the enlightenment of fate, I have insight into my past and future life, and I will be reincarnated in Derge twenty years later." A Geshe immediately interrupted him with a high-five and asked, "Tulku Benbojia, this is the fourth exam. If you fail, you are not a Tulku, and you are not eligible to be reincarnated. But you have already understood You will be reincarnated in Dege twenty years later, does this mean that you have predicted that you will be the final winner of the competition exam?" Ben Bojia nodded and said proudly: "Yes, I must be the winner." An examiner asked, "What about his understanding? Have you realized his awareness?" Ben Bojia said: "Yes, I have realized that as long as I concentrate on one point, I can know anyone's thoughts." A Geshe asked: "Then please tell me, what is your opponent thinking, is he thinking that he will win and you will lose?" Ben Bojia took a deep breath, put his hands on his knees, his right hand was down, his left hand was up, he closed his eyes, visualized for a while, and said, "No, he didn't think that way." An examiner asked, "Then what did he think?" Ben Bojia opened his eyes and said: "He wants to, he wants to..." He hesitated to speak, staring sideways at Guru Qiu Ze, as if he was asking the other party's opinion: Do you want to talk? Geshe asked curiously, "What do you think?" Ben Bojia said, "He wants to..." Guru Qiu Ze clapped his hands to stop him: "Stop talking." He stood up suddenly, glanced at Master, and walked towards the door of Zhiming Buddha Hall. The Geshe lamas started talking about it. Ben Bojia said loudly: "Guru Qiu Ze Lama has also realized the celestial eye and his heart. When he saw his concubine, his heart was crying." There was silence.A Geshe asked, "Why is his heart crying?" Before Ben Bojia could answer, the Great Living Buddha Vaje Gongga said, "Let's vote." The result of the voting was: eight votes to one vote, Ben Bojia Living Buddha won. Everyone knows that the vote for Lama Guru Qiuze belonged to the Great Rinpoche Vaje Gongga.The Great Living Buddha Vajgongga waved his hand silently: Everyone can leave.The result of the vote was within his expectations. At least half of the other eight examiners headed by Nima examiner did not have a fair attitude. Little by little, and then, and then no one knows what will happen.A very strange premonition made the head of the Great Living Buddha Wajie Gongga a little numb, and the numbness was a little scary. It was a harbinger of a big event, a harbinger of undisclosed secrets, and it was always like this before thrilling events. Now it is three to one, and the exam has to continue, at least there is still a fifth round. What about the fifth exam?Could Lama Guru Chiutse be the winner?The Great Living Buddha Vajgongga was very worried.He noticed that there was a kind of shadow that was always moving before his eyes, and it covered a blank like dark clouds covering the sky.What is it, the confusion in his heart, or the unpredictable future?
