Chapter 116 Section 5

In fact, Zhimei has not received any revelation about opening the "Seven Tara Gate". He performed the first divination in the Dasong Corridor, and the result was blank.The divination god has settled down but the hexagram image is blank, which means that the occasion is wrong, and the bustling Dasong corridor is not an ideal place for divination.He rushed down the "three-color ladder" and walked back, because he thought that Deyangxia Square, where the sky, clouds and shadows shone, and the monks' spirit gathered, was the place where the hexagrams were efficacious. He stood in the middle of the square, chanted the divination mantra, and spun around to choose the divination location.After a while, he walked towards the corridor on the north side of the square, and sat down behind a pillar with prayer flags inserted, holding the Sheng Mo hexagram bag.

As a scholar who not only has the divination family biography of Xuanyu Master, but also has in-depth research on Tibetan divination culture, he is familiar with various divination techniques, such as mantra divination, dice divination, sheep shoulder blade divination, rosary divination, round light divination, divine lottery divination and Arrow divination, dream divination, bird divination, phase divination, pulse divination, rope divination, language divination, character divination, stone divination, number divination, etc.He felt that as long as every kind of divination is devout, as long as the mantras are accurate and the method is appropriate, it will be effective.The only difference lies in whether the divination questions correspond to the characteristics of divination.Mantra divination and dice divination are suitable for common affairs, rosary divination and circular light divination are suitable for Buddhist affairs, divine fortune divination is suitable for individuals, sheep shoulder blade divination is suitable for collectives, dream divination and bird divination are suitable for travel, wealth and trade, phase divination, pulse divination and rope divination It is suitable for sickness and harm, language and word divination are suitable for the elderly, stone divination is suitable for children, number divination is suitable for women, rope divination is suitable for relatives, and arrow divination is suitable for finding lost things.But in the face of such a sacred and great excavation as the "Gate of the Seven Tara", these divinations may not be effective. It is like flipping a penny to know whether it is appropriate to go to the street today, but it is powerless to determine the fate of a person's life. Fate and world events.So he chose the "agate stone diamond input divination method".

The twenty-one agate stones were consecrated and blessed in front of the wrathful Buddha's concubine Vajra.He took it out of the Shengmo hexagram bag, rubbed it one by one, and urgently recited the Great Protector of the World Vajra Mantra: "Om Ba Ba Ba Ne Hum." A total of 21 times.Then he changed to read the divination prayer, and took out the hexagram dictionary. In the Dasong Corridor just now, he had copied by himself the "Guide to Prophecy" written to him by Prince Chambord, and wrote it into every page of the hexagrams and dictionaries.Align one on the first page, two on the second page, three on the third page, and so on, for a total of twenty-one pages.This is like inputting information into a computer. No matter how the hexagrams of the twenty-one agate stones evolve, he can find the number corresponding to the "Guide to Prophecy" from the hexagrams, and then judge according to the image represented by the corresponding number. The result of divination.In the whole divination process, the key lies in the evolution of the twenty-one agate stones.

He threw twenty-one agate stones into the air, and according to the location where they landed, he wrote down the numbers represented by the directions one by one with a pen, and then used these numbers to collide with the numbers corresponding to the "Guidelines for Prophecy" in the hexagrams and dictionaries. into twenty groups of numbers.Then add the twenty-one set of numbers again, subtract it again, and then connect the two numbers obtained by the addition and subtraction.This is a number, and he quickly found the object marked with this number in the hexagrams and dictionaries - an oriental throne carved with a lion's head.Knowing that this was referring to the Dalai Lama's lion seat in the East Hall of the White House, he stuffed everything into the Shengmo Gua bag, picked it up and left.

When he arrived at the East Hall, he had to do divination. This kind of divination is called "Mother Divination". If the result is still the oriental throne carved with a lion's head, it means that the "Gate of the Seven Tara" is in the East Hall.He performed "divination" again, and after two or three times, he could find the direction and the location.If the result is not the oriental throne carved with a lion's head but some other object, he has to go to the place where the object is, and do the "mother's divination" again.Divination continues in this way, until an object appears repeatedly, or the last number appears once in a lifetime.

He strode forward, pushing and shoving those who blocked the way from time to time: "Excuse me, please, get out of the way, out of the way." Several lamas stared angrily.
