Chapter 209 Rough Mandala
You still have to start with the precepts.
This commandment was not good-looking at all. Lu Feng looked at it for a while and felt that the light of swords, the shadow of swords, the presence of rulers, and the situation of not being allowed to eat appeared all the time. It was these words that fell on Lu Feng's mind. In Lu Feng's eyes, if Lu Feng didn't do it, it would be very difficult to read!
Study carefully and think about it.
What makes it even more difficult to continue reading is not only the pain on the body, but also a kind of "dyslexia", which is commonly known as "illiteracy".
Lu Feng was not illiterate. Once he saw these precepts and chanted them, he couldn't do it himself, so he forgot about them. Just like reading them over and over again, these words seemed to be able to tell whether he was sincere or not. It’s not that you really want to abide by the commandments. If you really want to abide by them, just follow your heart and then you can read them.
‘There is something so magical about it. '
Lu Feng plucked his "Gabala Rosary". Lu Feng held the ten precepts and studied them carefully. When it was time to eat in the evening, someone came and knocked on the door gently. It was White Pearl, White Pearl said softly: "Master, Master, it's time to eat."
Lu Feng responded.
He said: "Okay, White Pearl."
Bai Zhenzhu was waiting for him at the door, while Lu Feng closed the scroll and checked the ninety-nine butter lamps again to confirm that none of them would go out or fall to the ground. After they were all lit, he stood up, opened the door and left.
In Endless White Pagoda Temple, there is no such strict rule of not eating after noon. In the days before the exam, Ying Lu Feng spent a lot of money to borrow Buddhist scriptures and buy butter lamps. At that time, Lu Feng also had to eat a little at night, otherwise, No one can withstand such a long period of hunger.
However, he was poor at that time, and all his supplies were turned into Buddhist scriptures and butter. He had not had hot butter tea for a long time, and he ate less even highland barley fried noodles, let alone added sugar. Barley tsampa mixed with butter was the time when he was most poor. If he wanted to really stop eating after noon, he had to go to bed early at night and get up early in the morning.
Here, Lu Feng Yewu places the precepts on the heads of non-monks. They are all working people. They built the tower houses outside. They are all hardworking workers. In this cold and snowy place, they are indispensable. If you don't have enough food, something big will happen.
They are not like Lu Feng, who has kundalini.
If you don't eat enough, you will freeze to death here.
So Lu Feng walked out and saw White Pearl at the door. White Pearl saw the guru and bowed his head respectfully. Lu Feng also reached out and touched the top of her head to bless him. When he got back downstairs, he encouraged everyone and asked everyone to go back to eat. He saw Luo Ren Cidan Renzhuwu on Zhawa's body.
Zhawa is now also a person who chants sutras, but not only chants sutras, he also does divination and prays. It can be regarded as learning some skills, and Zhawa’s status is now extraordinary, no matter what It seems that no matter how powerful Luo Ren Tseden Renzhu is, he is still a "magic wizard".
He is the first shaman in this temple. The "shaman" is naturally also a master, and he must also have many privileges, such as the privilege of not having to work, not only not having to work, but also not having to do physical labor. Yes, but from Lu Feng's point of view, he can't do without mental work.
And no matter whether his divination spirit works or not, or how well he recites sutras, he must recite sutras toward other people.
People always have something to do.
And in the temple, there happened to be a lack of "Yeba". He was a good candidate to be a "Yeba" and asked a "divine shaman" to be his "Yeba" - naturally, There is no need to say the word "yeba". Even if it is only the reality and has no name, it can still be done.
The "Shenshaman" does "Yeba". After he has finished this "Yeba", Lu Feng has to ask him to teach others. After everyone has finished eating, Lu Feng will teach Educate your own attendant monks and a few selected refined people first, and then ask them to educate others. This is the fastest way to start learning from several sources at the same time.
As for Tsaidan Lunzhu, Master Zhenshi smiled and pulled Tsedan Lunzhu to lecture on the sutra. While he was preaching like this, he asked a carpenter to make a ruler in his hand. If he didn't know it once, he would teach him again with a smile. If Cai Dan Lunzhu still didn't know it, he would be punished. Lu Feng saw this and didn't say much.
This is already a very polite situation and a very gentle approach.
In the realm of esoteric law, such punishment is nothing. There is often a white pole on the square in front of the Endless White Pagoda Temple Debate House. This white pole is used to punish people. This is a routine Punishment means that it is a daily behavior.
On the white pole, there is a person hanging on it every now and then. His clothes are naked, and he is drying in the sun like that. He is seen by people passing by, and everyone looks at such a person. They all laughed at him for his fate - that was the treatment that the last person in the last homework would "enjoy". Being beaten, not allowed to eat, and punished with a ruler was the easiest job among the masters in the esoteric realm. .
For the guru, these all fall within the range of minor punishments and major commandments, and are not serious punishments.
That is to say, to put it harshly, unless one is exceptionally gifted, otherwise, he is the reincarnation of the presiding venerable of the Endless White Pagoda Temple, a Buddhist son who was born with the great status of "Hubilhan". Even if you have to receive the teacher's ruler, you can also be beaten.
So Master Zhenshi did this, and Lu Feng didn’t say a word about it. After teaching "Yeba", Lu Feng returned to the outside of the tower. The cold wind howled like a shrill cry, Lu Feng On the contrary, I feel relaxed and freehand about this. It should be here that there is no big problem.
The chill outside that could kill someone was nothing to Lu Feng, who had a clumsy fire. With the "Horsa Head Ming King" Bodhisattva he carried back here, it was safe for the time being. As for the "Red" The words spoken by the spirit of the monk killed by "Lian Ji Mie Mo Mou Da Lun" said that he had violated the bad luck and asked the dakinis to leave, the treasure tent master to leave, the kitchen god to leave, and the fire god to leave, so he could not start the fire. The situation returned to normal after Lu Feng returned with Bodhisattva.
In the darkness, Lu Feng could see everything clearly with his eyes, so he went to find the materials to make a preliminary "mandala", also called a "mandala". He used "cow dung" and "mandala". "Sand" and other objects must be made into the simplest "mandala", also called "mandala", to continue one's practice of "The Secret Mantra of the Immovable King" and to practice the fifth-level "Immortal Mantra". "The secret curse of King Ming".
When you have reached a certain level of practice, you must learn to build a mandala. The mandala is a good object to help the masters practice. It is a dojo for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. At the same time, it is also a manifestation of mantras. , is the embodiment of the solemn virtues, the ability to save everything, and the gathering of essence. When you reach a state like Lu Feng's practice, you can use the "Mandala" to meditate and visualize, which can help masters like Lu Feng. , one step further in cultivation.
It is "the three secrets are used", "the four mantras are the phase", "the five Buddhas and the five wisdoms" and the "six majors are the body".
The "four mandalas" are the four types of "mandalas".
They are the Great Mandala, Samaya Mandala, Dharma Mandala, and Karma Mandala.
Each has its own differences. What Lu Feng needs to do now is to build a small, flat "Mandala".
This kind of "mandala" is commonly known as "Thangka Mandala", but Lu Feng does not make human skin thangkas. There are many kinds of thangkas. There is no doubt that , Human skin thangka is a special and special kind of thangka in the tantric realm nowadays. Depending on the deity painted on it and the form of painting, even with human skin, there must be various choices.
But Lu Feng doesn’t do this either. What he wants to do is a normal thangka, which must be hung in the sacrificial pagoda. It is a dojo of the Buddhas depicted with noble ores. In terms of image, he does not pursue human skin Thangka, so the Thangka he wants to make this time is a "flat" "Mandala", which can also be called a "painting Mandala".
Among this kind of "flat mandala", there is also a "woven mandala", which is a perfect woven fabric. The "mandala" was embroidered on a flat surface by embroiderers. But unfortunately, Lu Feng Wu had no means to make this "woven fabric", and his skills in needlework were unreal. Naturally, it was Lu Feng's first attempt at painting this thangka, so he had to look at it again.
About types.
What he wants to do is the "Great Sun Tathagata Universal Gate Mandala" among the "Great Sun Tathagata", that is, the "Great Sun Tathagata himself" sits in the middle, and all the deities from all tribes gather together The mandala must be made of pigment powder ground from a variety of ores, which can ensure that the thangka will not change color or fade for hundreds or thousands of years. .
The two mandalas of Vajra and Womb Treasure are in between. In the direction of Thangka, they are one on the left and one on the right. In the Vajra Realm, there must be a large number of deities. There must also be a large number of deities.
There is no doubt that this is a complicated and large project, and after this "flat mandala", a "three-dimensional mandala" must be created.
It can be said to be an "architectural mandala", but not entirely. Anyway, what Lu Feng wants to do is this kind of "architectural mandala".
This kind of "three-dimensional mandala" has a large There are small ones, such as the big one, and the larger one is a complete temple. It was the masters and venerables who built a temple into the shape of a "mandala".
That is, the entire temple is actually a complete "mandala" itself, a "dojo for Buddhas and Bodhisattvas". There is also a slightly smaller one, which also looks like the Endless White Pagoda Temple, on the back mountain The "mandala" is a variety of "mandalas", and each deity is in it. If you want to obtain inheritance, you must receive initiation in it.
What Lu Feng has to do is much smaller than this.
It is a small "Mandala" that can be created in the sacrificial tower. It is a mandala made of sand, soil, and cow dung. Of course, it must also be made of various materials. When coloring with ore powder, it should look good and should not be too crude.
These things are as if someone has hidden this knowledge in Lu Feng's own "Tathagata Tibetan". Lu Feng would not be able to know these things if he had reached this level of realm, but at this level of realm, he would I know more, and all "initiations" can actually be called "secret empowerments". Accordingly, these "initiations" and "giving" are also divided into many levels.
After the initial "initiation", another "initiation" must be carried out, which depends on the relationship between the master and the disciple, and no other person is required to be present during the "initiation". These are extremely secretive things, so they are called "secret initiations".
What was different about Lu Feng was that he didn’t know how many times the deity guru and the secret deity guru gave him the “initiation” for him that night, and how many times he was “initiated” for him. He had received "several initiations", which led him to practice to this point. The more he practiced, the more knowledge he felt became abundant. It was as if all the "initiations" of the four parts were "initiated" into his mind.
Even the most secret "Supreme Yoga Department" seems to have been "initiated" to him.
But if they can all "initiate" the cultivation of "Supreme Yoga", then how special are his deity guru and secret deity guru?
Lu Feng didn't know.
Now that Lu Feng has practiced, he must display his "Visualization Mandala" into an "Image Mandala", which is to combine all the things he sees, hears and touches with his body. After visualizing such a scene, in response to his eyes and ears in the esoteric realm, all lights and shadows are the "true nature" of the Tathagata, the true nature of the Tathagata. Therefore, what he sees and hears Everything you see and touch is actually the true form of the Great Sun Tathagata.
What he needs to do is to break through the confusion and perceive the true nature, so what Lu Feng needs to do now is to continue making thangkas and then create a "three-dimensional small mandala".
This kind of "small" mandala is really not big. After spending a huge amount of time to create the "small mandala", Lu Feng practiced, and then he wanted to destroy this "small mandala" in front of his eyes. Mandala”, experience impermanence.
Then use the "small mandala" to communicate with the deity.
Practice the fifth-level "Fudo Myoyo Secret Mantra".
However, thangka is the "Great Sun Tathagata Mandala", and the "three-dimensional mandala" of "birth and death" he wants to build is the "Samadhi Mandala".
Lu Feng is now counting the days. On the birthdays of the Buddhas, or on auspicious days, he starts painting, practicing, and making these "mandalas".
And, these things must be done by him alone.
Originally, there could be a guru who specializes in making this thing to help - but unfortunately there is none in Lu Feng Temple.
Or maybe Lu Feng's master came to make it for him - that's not the case. Lu Feng is the only one who can do this here, so when Lu Feng reaches the level of cultivation, he has to do it himself.
No one has done anything, so you have to be careful. If you are a little late in making the "Mandala", all your efforts will be wasted. If you make a wrong stroke, you will be doomed.
So Lu Feng collected some raw materials and returned to the temple's sacrificial tower. After doing the "Mahamudra" practice, he began to calculate an auspicious day.
Then he continued to open the commandments.
Continue to watch sincerely.
Then, learn!
