Chapter 4356 Chapter 4358 [Nirvana Sutra]
There is a practice of ascetic cultivation in Jing Nian Zen Monastery, which can enable people to achieve Nirvana and become a Buddha in the physical body.
It's just that it's extremely difficult to practice. You need to constantly drink poisonous water, stop eating, and hone your spirit in extreme pain, so that your spirit can be sublimated.
Master Yixin in the play uses this method to practice and become a Buddha. Although the body is destroyed, the thoughts will remain in the world forever. This shows how strong his spirit is.
So Xiang Nan wanted to get this technique to hone his spiritual will.
So he sneaked into Jing Nian Zen Monastery quietly, and then searched carefully in the Zen Monastery. He searched the Sutra Pavilion, the abbot's room, the Mahavira Hall, and other monks' dormitories.
After finally finding nothing, he came to the Jingxin Bronze Hall where Master Yixin retreated.
Frankly speaking, he didn't want to disturb Master Yixin unless necessary.
Because this master is truly profound in Buddhism and compassionate, and is not a villain like the Four Great Bandits of the Demon Sect and the Shadow Swordsman Yang Xuyan.
So after thinking about it, Xiang Nan decided to seek the scriptures sincerely first, and if he couldn't get it, he would think of other ways.
…
Xiang Nan immediately came to the Jingxin Bronze Palace and used the power of his mind to make a request to Master Yixin in the palace.
The so-called power of thought is actually spiritual power.
Master Yixin is the most powerful master in the world. His martial arts skills are even higher than those of Zhu Yuyan, Shi Zhixuan, Fu Cailin and others. His mental power is naturally also very strong.
Although Xiang Nan's mental power is not as good as his, it is not too difficult to contact Master Yixin with the power of his mind.
The so-called sincerity leads to gold and stone.
Xiang Nan asked Master Yixin to borrow the penance skills, "Master Yixin, under Kou Zhong, once searched for He's Bi with his disciple, Master Lokong, and helped Shi Feixuan, a disciple of Cihang Jingzhai, to resolve the demonic nature in his body.
Now I want to seek the hard training skills from your temple to sharpen my spirit and refine my martial arts. I hope that the master can make it happen. "
After a moment, a thought came into Xiang Nan's mind.
"I have heard the bad guys mention the story of the benefactor. The benefactor's benevolence, righteousness, wisdom and courage all made the poor monk admire him.
Although the Nirvana Sutra is secretly taught by this temple, it is not actually forbidden to spread it to outsiders. It's just that this skill is too difficult to practice, causing those who practice it to go astray and damage their bodies, so it is hidden in the temple.
Since the donor sincerely seeks the scriptures, I will pass on the Nirvana Sutra to you. I hope the donor will cherish it more and never force it. "That thought sounded in Xiang Nan's mind, and then there was an additional exercise in his mind, which was the "Nirvana Sutra" secretly taught by Jing Nian Temple.
"Thank you, Master, for teaching me the scriptures. I will definitely practice better next time." Xiang Nan said gratefully and immediately left.
…
After returning to the villa, Xiang Nan locked himself in a secret room and meditated on the Nirvana Sutra. He saw that this technique was indeed a way to sharpen the spirit through hard work.
Buddhism believes that the human body is just a stinky skin that is fragile, stinky and unclean, filled with fishy filth, and overflowing with feces and urine. Therefore, Buddhist practice emphasizes letting go of the seven emotions and six desires, overcoming the fear of life and death, transcending karma and retribution, and reaching the state of Nirvana.
Nirvana is the highest state of Buddhist practice. It transcends all pain and joy, cuts off desires and troubles, is free from karma and retribution, and achieves a kind of supreme happiness and liberation.
The Nirvana Sutra is a technique that helps people achieve the state of Nirvana. It is said to be the path to liberation passed down by Buddha. However, because the cultivation process is so hard, even the monks at Jing Nian Zen Monastery have not been able to complete it until now.
However, after seeing it, Xiang Nan felt that although the cultivation process was very hard, it was still acceptable. So the next time, he also began to practice hard.
Moreover, his martial arts ability automatically absorbs the energy of heaven and earth, so even if he stops eating and drinking, he will not feel hungry and naturally will not feel pain.
So in order to hone himself, Xiang Nan made the magic potion for himself, no matter how painful or desperate he felt.
It just so happened that he inherited Snape's knowledge of potions, and he also learned a lot of potions himself, so he had no problem configuring potions that would bring pain and despair to people.
…
After the pain potion was brewed, Xiang Nan took a sip.
The entrance felt as if he had swallowed a razor blade, or as if a red-hot iron had been stuffed into his mouth. Severe pain instantly shot through his body, making him tremble with pain.
Immediately after he swallowed the potion, his internal organs began to twitch violently, as if a monkey was doing somersaults in his stomach, tangling his internal organs, large and small intestines together.
Xiang Nan tried his best to hold back the pain, sat cross-legged on the ground, and silently recited the "Nirvana Sutra".
"In all the worlds, all living things will die.
Although lifespan is limitless, your needs must be exhausted.
The prosperity of husband will lead to decline, the union will lead to separation.
Not long after the prime of life, he is invaded by color diseases.
Life is swallowed up by death, and there is no such thing as permanent law.
…
Now that I have entered Nirvana, it is like a fire being extinguished.
Cunda, you should not think about the meaning of the Tathagata,
When observing the Tathagata's residence, it is like Mount Sumeru.
Now I have entered Nirvana and experienced the first happiness,
The Dharma of all Buddhas is like this, and one should not cry again. "
As he recited the Nirvana Sutra, Xiang Nan felt that his pain seemed to be slowly dissolving. His spirit seemed to gradually leave his body, no longer tormented by physical pain.
This feeling is very strange, a bit like what Taoists call "the soul leaving the body", but for Buddhists it is "sitting in meditation and entering concentration".
The so-called "sitting in meditation and entering samadhi" means sitting without a single thought, Zen when seeing one's true nature without confusion; Zen without being attached to appearance externally, and concentration without chaos internally. External Zen and internal concentration, hence the name Zen, which means you can suddenly regain your original mind.
In short, in this state, Xiang Nan's feeling around him became more and more clear.
He could smell small smells, hear faint sounds, and even feel the extremely small air movement in the secret room...
However, this feeling is temporarily limited to a radius of several dozen feet.
Over time, the range reaches hundreds or thousands of feet, and even with a thought, the entire world can be perceived by him, then he will truly become a god.
Because of this, Xiang Nanyue became more and more energetic in practicing.
In addition to taking potions, he also imposed curses on himself, such as "Cruciato", "Pain Curse", and "Despair Curse". These curses can also bring him extreme pain and destroy his spirit and will. Get exercise.
And although his body was suffering from tremendous pain, it was because he knew many magical arts, such as Rama Magic, Humiliation Magic, as well as powerful healing spells and natural cardamom.
Therefore, even if he is seriously injured, he can still be resurrected with full health, so he does not have to train himself to death like Master Yixin.
