The golden dome in the center of the temple sparkles brightly under the sun.
The towering white walls, flying eaves and brackets, and exquisite carvings exude a strong snow-covered area flavor.
This building complex is built between two majestic peaks of the Kunlun Mountains. It looks like the gateway to the two peaks. I wonder if there is any restricted area behind it.
One thing that Zhang Chulan and the others had not expected was that the incense here was so popular.
At this time, the air was filled with the scent of Tibetan incense, and some pilgrims and believers were prostrating in front of the temple.
You can even see other directions in the distance, with believers driving and pilgrims walking constantly coming.
The pilgrims had red faces and were covered in dust, and it was obvious that they had come from a long walk.
Zhang Chulan was very surprised.
"Is this place so popular?"
Wang Zhenqiu nodded after hearing this.
"Of course, this is the Dapu Temple, the headquarters of Tantric Buddhism."
"Plus, there are many methods within Tantric Buddhism, so most of the problems of believers who come here to seek Buddha's healing will be solved."
"So over time, this place has been widely praised by the Snow Region and the surrounding border areas. There is no reason why the incense is not good."
"But because it's so far away, I only came here once when I first started working as a temporary worker. I guess I met the Lankavatara Dharma King once."
Xiao Zizai clasped his hands together at this moment.
"In that case, let me communicate with the Lankavatara Dharma King first."
"Perhaps, the little bit of Buddhist teachings I've learned can be of some use."
When everyone heard Xiao Zizai say this, they immediately reacted.
Yes.
This person was also a Buddhist disciple before.
Even though he has been expelled now, his understanding of Buddhist scriptures is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Zhang Chulan then raised both hands in agreement.
"Okay, it's up to you now, Brother Xiao."
……
After parking the car in the parking lot, the group arrived at the gate of Dapu Temple.
The people coming and going around are all ethnic minorities who come here to pray for blessings, and Han faces only account for one-third.
Their attire quickly attracted the attention of the lama guarding the door.
Because the company had already contacted Tantra before coming.
So the Tantric Buddhism has sent people here to welcome us.
At this time, the lama came forward.
"Dear guest, please follow me."
After saying this, the lama led a group of people into the temple.
When other people who came here to pray saw this scene, they couldn't help but start to wonder who could make the monks in the temple come to greet them in person?
As they walked into the temple, they came to a secluded courtyard.
This seems to be a place specially used by the Tantric Buddhism to entertain guests, and the glass on the windows is very clean.
At this time, the lama said:
"The Dharma King is out and will not be back for about seven days. So during these seven days, you can walk around the temple as you please, and you can eat with us."
Hearing that the Lankavatara Dharma King was not here, everyone looked at each other.
This situation was unexpected.
I didn’t expect that the Lankavatara Dharma King would not play by the rules.
Not here actually.
At this time, Xiao Zizai said:
"Then who is in charge here when the Dharma King Lanka is away?"
The lama was startled, then said:
"When His Holiness is away, the four Venerables are in charge: Venerable Jiaming, Venerable Zhaba, Venerable Tudeng, and Venerable Ani."
"Among them, the Venerable Jiaming manages the Pure Fire Monastery."
"Shangzhaba is in charge of the Rakshasa Monastery."
"Thubten Venerable manages the Vajra Monastery."
"Ani Shangzun manages the Fudo Zen Temple."
Everyone was stunned to hear that such a large temple actually had so many Zen temples.
How many people are there in so many Zen temples?
Thinking of this, Xiao Zizai asked again:
"With so many Zen temples, how many people are there in each one?"
After hearing this, the lama thought for a while.
"I haven't noticed this, but I think there are probably three to five hundred people in a Zen temple."
Xiao Zizai clasped his hands together after hearing this.
"Okay, thank you, Master."
The lama nodded upon seeing this.
"If you're hungry, leave this courtyard, turn left, and walk to the end. There's a canteen there. Some pilgrims also eat there. Everything is free."
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Walk slowly!"
After seeing the little lama off, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
I never expected that there would be so many people in this temple.
Zhang Chulan spread his hands.
"It's over. Why don't we retreat? There are over 2,000 people in the four monasteries of this temple. If you add in the other miscellaneous people, there must be as many as a reinforced regiment."
Hearing Zhang Chulan's discouraging words, Feng Baobao walked up and knocked on Zhang Chulan's head.
"Don't give up the mission!"
Zhang Chulan rubbed his head.
"What if I don't give up?"
"This isn't Biyou Village. We can't protect it with just a few of us."
The clarinet said at this time:
"Don't worry about it for now. Since we can eat, let's go eat first."
"Eat first and then we can discuss countermeasures."
After hearing this, everyone was helpless and could only fill their stomachs first.
Come into the cafeteria.
I saw some pilgrims having a meal here, and a strong aroma of beef, mutton and cumin filled the canteen.
A row of buffet-like shelves are filled with beef and mutton pilaf and various grilled meats, fruits, vegetables and yogurt.
Zhang Chulan was a little surprised.
"These lamas don't eat vegetarian food?"
Xiao Zizai said at this time:
"Original Buddhism did not stipulate that monks must be vegetarians, but rather followed the circumstances and changes, so there is no precept prohibiting meat eating in the Vinaya."
"It's just that Emperor Wu of Liang felt that it was too wasteful for these monks who didn't work to eat meat, and since Buddhism originally had precepts prohibiting killing, he ordered all monks in the country not to eat meat."
"Over time, it was passed down and became a commandment that must be followed."
After hearing this, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but nodded.
"So that's what happened."
Everyone then started eating in the cafeteria.
After eating, the lama who had just come from outside came over.
"Dear donors, the Venerable Jiaming of the Pure Fire Monastery wishes to see you. Would you be so kind as to come?"
Hearing this, everyone was delighted and naturally had no intention of refusing.
"of course can!"
Afterwards, everyone followed the lama towards the Jinghuo Zen Temple.
After arriving at the Zen temple, some lamas were chanting there, while the Venerable Jiaming was sitting on a lotus stone seat in the Zen temple.
He was wearing a Zen robe and his hair was a bright red color that was quite eye-catching.
Seeing everyone coming, Lord Jiaming immediately stood up and stepped forward to greet them.
"My dear donors, I'm sorry for not welcoming you."
At this moment Xiao Zizai stepped forward to greet him.
"No, I just don't know why Lord Jiaming wants to see us."
Upon hearing this, Lord Jiaming laughed heartily.
"It's not convenient to talk here, please follow me."
As he spoke, Lord Jiaming led everyone towards the meditation room behind him.
After arriving at the Zen room, everyone felt that it was quite spacious and bright, and the various furnishings were quite luxurious.
After everyone was seated, Lord Jiaming sat cross-legged on the bright yellow cushion on the Arhat bed.
Look at everyone.
Lord Jiaming spoke slowly.
"I already know the reason for your visit this time. My senior brother doesn't want to see you, and has gone to the back mountains to practice."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
Obviously, he didn't expect the other party to be so direct.
The clarinet said at this time:
"Don't you know that the Tantric sect is breaking the law by doing this?"
"If someone intentionally damages someone else's property, the sentence could be three to five years if the amount involved is huge."
Hearing what Clarinet said, Lord Jiaming sighed deeply.
"Speaking of this matter, I have no control over it at all."
"Because my brother has become a completely different person since he received guidance from the Buddha."
Zhang Chulan was a little curious at this time.
"Buddha's guidance?"
"Is it the Great Black Buddha?"
"I remember that you never believed in this Buddha before. Why do you suddenly believe in him now?"
Hearing Zhang Chulan say this, Dharma King Jiaming shook his head.
"I'm sorry I can't answer that question for you."
"Because it concerns my senior brother."
