Chapter 290: Practicing Joyful Zen
"Sheng" is a respectful title, which is the honorific name for the saint Buddha of the present time.

From this point alone, we can know that this person's status is higher than that of a living Buddha like Duoqing. After all, Duoqing does not have a title.

The practice of Tantric Buddhism is very special. It emphasizes the accumulation of Buddha nature and virtue through various reincarnations. If the practice in one lifetime is not enough, then accumulation should be done in many lifetimes.

In fact, Mahayana Buddhism is similar, but it does not regard this as the main method of practice. There are also many Buddhas in the world.

However, living Buddhas like Wuxin are rare in Tantric Buddhism. After all, the meaning of living Buddhas is to become a Buddha in this life, which is different from the practice of most people in Tantric Buddhism.

Especially since Wuxin is still practicing Joyful Zen, many people in Tantric Buddhism seem to think that she should not stay in Joyful Zen. After all, everyone thinks that no one in the world can practice the Yin-Yang Dao with her.

This is indeed the case. Wuxin has been practicing Buddhism for twenty-seven years and has been practicing the Yin-Yang Dao alone until now. Although his Buddha nature is far higher than Duoqing's, in terms of strength, he is still slightly inferior to Duoqing.

In Joyful Zen, the dual cultivation of yin and yang is divided into one master and one slave. The more demanding one is one master and one slave.

But currently in the Huanxi Zen Sect, not to mention the cultivators who could serve Wuxin, she was not even willing to be her slave.

However, today, when Ye Ning stepped into the main hall, Sheng Wuxin took off the Buddha mask on her face and knelt down to worship. She was expressing to Ye Ning that she was willing to practice the Yin-Yang Dao with Ye Ning as a slave.

Ye Ning was not clear about the details involved, but Duoqing behind him was very clear about it.

Because in the entire Joyful Zen, he is one of the few practitioners who is qualified to be a mindless practitioner or a slave practitioner.

But now, when he saw Wuxin's appearance, his Buddhist heart was greatly shaken at this moment.

At this moment, Duoqing's heart felt as if it understood the feelings of some of the suffering people in the world.

Of course, this analogy is not quite accurate.

After all, those who are sentimental are cultivating Buddha, and what they want to combine with the heartless is the Yin-Yang path of joyful Zen, which is different from worldly emotions, so we can only say that they are somewhat similar, but not the same.

But is it really completely like this?

Looking at Wuxin who was kneeling in front of Ye Ning, Duoqing's heart, which had not been moved for many years, seemed to be moved a little.

People are people. Being sentimental does not make one a Buddha. Although he is a living Buddha, he is still a human being. How can he completely eliminate all desires?
But after all, he has been practicing Buddhism for many years, and although his emotions fluctuated a little, they were eventually suppressed by his Buddha nature.

He kept reciting Buddhist scriptures in his heart and looked at Ye Ning with awe.

Wuxin's strength is indeed not as good as hers at the moment, but her devotion to Buddha and her understanding of Buddha can be recognized by almost everyone, not to mention in Zen Buddhism, even in the entire Tantric Buddhism.

It is no exaggeration to say that she is the person closest to Buddha in this generation of Tantric Buddhism.

But who exactly is Ye Ning, a person that even the saints and Buddhas of the time are willing to condescend to kneel down to worship?
Buddha's son? Heavenly Buddha's son? Holy Buddha's son?

Do not!
impossible!

This is definitely not as simple as just being a Buddhist.

Not to mention the distracting thoughts that kept emerging in his mind at the moment, Ye Ning looked at the nun kneeling in front of him, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"Ahem, why don't you get up first? It's not a good idea to keep kneeling like this, right?"

After hearing Ye Ning's words, everyone, including Wu Jian behind him, breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he is the abbot of Laba Temple and the person in charge of Huanxi Zen, Wuxin's status is rather special. When she kneels in front of Ye Ning with such great respect, even he has no right to say anything.

Fortunately, Ye Ning, the destined Buddha, spoke in time, otherwise the current situation would not be able to continue at all.

After Ye Ning spoke, Saint Wuxin, who was kneeling in front of Ye Ning, raised his head and slowly stood up from the ground.

Her inner lining was also bright red, but she was wearing a white embroidered Buddhist robe. However, this Buddhist robe could not hide her beautiful figure.

How should I put it? There is a contrast between desire and abstinence.

"My Lord, please." A cold voice came from the mouth of the Saint Wuxin in front of her. She had taken off the Buddha mask and her face was expressionless. Even though her attitude was very respectful, there was still no emotional fluctuation.

Fortunately, Wujian walked forward at this time. He first nodded at Sheng Wuxin, and then led Ye Ning into the temple.

He led the way in front, while Sheng Wuxin followed behind Ye Ning half a step slower. As for Duoqing, he originally planned to continue following, but Sheng Wuxin just turned his head to look at him, and he tactfully stopped in front of the hall.

The figures of the three people disappeared in the hall, and the group of lamas dispersed, and a group of people came directly to Duoqing.

"Brother Duoqing, who is that boy? Why does he seem to be in a very high position?"

"Brother Duoqing, does His Holiness Saint Wuxin want to be with him???"

"Brother Duoqing, has your chance to practice with the Master been snatched away by someone? Who is this guy? How could he do this?"

. . .

. . .

. . .

A group of little lamas kept chattering, and there was no respect for Ye Ning in their words.

There is no way. These young lamas have only been practicing for a short time and their understanding of Buddhism is still far from enough.

They could neither see nor hear the Buddha's light that came before nor the Buddha's sound that came later, so naturally they had no awe in their hearts.

But these words seemed somewhat harsh to Duoqing's ears.

"Shut up!" a loud shout.

The little lamas around were frightened and stopped gossiping instantly.

Duoqing glanced around with a cold face and said, "Those who just spoke without restraint, copy the Joy Sutra ten times one by one, and do it now!"

"Ahhhh!" Duoqing's words instantly caused a burst of ghost howling, but no one went to plead with Duoqing.

Everyone knows that Senior Brother Duoqing is usually easy to talk to, but as long as he announces a punishment, everyone must carry it out. Otherwise, the result that awaits everyone may be a more severe punishment. There are precedents for this, and some people even paid with their lives for it.

These young lamas have only been practicing for a short time and still have a fear of reincarnation.

On the other hand, Ye Ning was being taken on a tour by Wu Jian, who was introducing this temple belonging to the Happy Zen Buddhism.

Of course, the various characteristics of Joyful Zen were also introduced in the process. In Ye Ning's view, this was just like the sales promotion in his previous life, constantly encouraging Ye Ning to truly join Joyful Zen.

Just as Wu Jian was introducing himself, Saint Wu Xin, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up behind Ye Ning: "My Lord, you don't need to care too much about this place, or even about all the sects of my Tantric Buddhism. Buddha is everywhere. Wherever my Lord is, there is Buddha."

Infernal Affairs: ???
No, sister, what are you doing? I'm just trying to recruit people to join the church, and you're trying to sabotage me.

Such a being favored by Buddha doesn’t need him to do anything, as long as he stays here, my status in Zen Buddhism will also rise rapidly!!!

The most important thing is that the moment that sentence just appeared, the Buddhist nature in the entire temple that had increased due to Ye Ning’s arrival suddenly decreased by 10%!
孽 孽!
This prodigal bitch!
But Wu Jian could only complain in his heart at this moment. Saint Wuxin had an extremely important status, and was also related to a big secret of Tantric Buddhism. He had no right to criticize anything.

When he thought of this, Wu Jian felt even more uncomfortable.

He could only smile bitterly, pretending not to have heard what Saint Wuxin said and continued with his introduction.

"Well, can you tell me why you arrested me now, or what do you want me to do?"

Hearing Ye Ning's question, Wu Jian paused. To be honest, before Ye Ning came, he had specific arrangements for the so-called Buddhist disciples in his mind.

There is a plan in place, including forcing them to practice the secret method of Joyful Zen.

But when Ye Ning came in front of him, Wu Jian realized that he couldn't do that.

This person is not a Buddhist at all. He is much nobler than a Buddhist!
To be honest, at this moment, Wu Jian felt that he was most likely deceived by those hypocritical Mahayana Buddhists. This person's status was extremely high, and even Mahayana Buddhism could not use the method of conversion on him, as that would not truly awaken his Buddha heart.

Since they are unable to use the method of refuge, Mahayana Buddhism will probably be at a loss as to what to do.

However, these beings with affinity to Buddha could not but be absorbed into Buddhism, so they dragged their Tantric Buddhism into it.

As for why he chose the Zen sect he liked, one reason was that he was rather isolated in the Tantric Buddhism, and another reason was probably because of the existence of Saint Wuxin.

Damn Mahayana Buddhism!!!
Of course, there is no way to explain this kind of thing, after all, it was Duoqing who did it himself.

It’s not Duoqing’s fault. Before Ye Ning stepped into the Taoist temple, no one knew what his situation was. Even if he went to Wujian this time, he would probably be brought back.

"To be honest, Your Excellency, we originally invited you back to join our Happy Zen Sect. But now it seems that my small temple is not big enough to accommodate a Buddha like you. However, Your Excellency can take a look at the secret method we practice. After all, you are the dual cultivation partner chosen by Your Excellency Saint Wuxin, so it would be a good thing for you to learn from him."

and many more!

What are you saying, old lama???
Originally Ye Ning didn't think anything until he heard the words 'dual cultivation' from Wu Jian's mouth. He turned around and looked at the expressionless Saint Wu Xin.

She didn't seem to object.

So this is what “my Lord” means?
What is the name for the dual cultivation partner?

Ye Ning was a little confused. Everything in this Happy Zen Buddhism was a mystery to him, whether it was his past life or this life.

Joyful Zen itself is quite mysterious. To those who are not followers of Tantric Buddhism, Buddhist practice and desire itself should not coexist.

The joyful Zen of controlling desire with desire is really incomprehensible.

Just when Ye Ning didn't know what to say, Saint Wuxin spoke again: "If my master doesn't want to practice, it doesn't matter. When practicing together, it will be the same if Wuxin leads my master into the state. If my master doesn't mind, please follow me back to the room now."

The words spoken in Mo's emotional tone left Ye Ning dumbfounded.

For a moment, Ye Ning felt a little dry in the mouth.

Is it so direct?

Listening to Saint Wuxin's words, Wujian smiled bitterly.

Now he almost understood it in his heart.

There is a high probability that my junior sister knows a lot about this person with a deep Buddhist background, but she just doesn't want to say it.

It would be basically useless for me to say anything to get this person to join my family.

But judging from her intention, she also wanted him to practice joyful Zen.

That's enough.

As long as you practice Joyful Zen, it doesn’t matter whether you are in Joyful Zen Buddhism or not.

Or it’s better not to be there, so as not to be easily involved in more complicated things.

so be it.

Thinking of this, Wujian chanted the Buddha's name, and then said: "Lama Dunba, Jiongdandi, Deyinshaba, the Venerable has the Supreme Source Dharma. You can decide whatever you want. I will not disturb the Venerable. His Highness Saint Wuxin will explain to you what will happen next, and the final decision is up to you."

Having said that, Wu Jian bowed and walked away.

Soon, only Sheng Wuxin and Ye Ning were left in the hall.

Ye Ning looked at the rare nun in front of him and felt a little nervous.

"My Lord, this way please."

"oh oh."

Ye Ning hurried to catch up.

How to say it, at this moment Ye Ning felt the same nervousness as when he first went to the club in his previous life.

Could it be that? This means we have to practice dual cultivation right away?

Are all those who practice Joy Zen so direct?

five minutes later.

Ye Ning followed Sheng Wuxin to her room.

It was called a room but there was no bed in it. There were only a few futons and a coffee table, plus a wardrobe for clothes and a few pots of flowers.

Very simple, even crude.

Saint Wuxin waved his hand, and the original ground suddenly floated up, and then two cushions flew to both sides of the floating ground.

"My Lord, please take your seat."

Ye Ning was speechless looking at this extremely simple "bed".

No, isn’t it right here???

Half an hour later...

Ye Ning's face was flushed, his shirt was open, and sweat soaked his shirt.

On the other side, Saint Wuxin was in a similar state, and she also tidied her clothes.

Don't get me wrong, nothing less than zero-distance contact happened between the two, otherwise it wouldn't have been over in half an hour.

Just now, Sheng Wuxin and Ye Ning had a dual cultivation session.

Of course, it is not the kind of dual cultivation involving both sexes.

The dual cultivation just now was a kind of dual cultivation of power, that is, the other party used the pure Buddha power in his body to drive the star power in Ye Ning's body to operate together. After this dual cultivation, the star power in Ye Ning's body increased greatly, and there was also a trace of pure Buddha power.

According to Saint Wuxin, when such dual cultivation becomes instinct between the two and the Buddha power in Ye Ning's body reaches a certain level, they will be able to practice dual cultivation at a deeper level.

That is the kind of dual cultivation that Ye Ning has in mind, and it is also the true core content of Joyful Zen, "the dual cultivation of emptiness and joy" and "controlling desire with desire"!
Let's not talk about the dual cultivation for now. At this moment, the star power in Ye Ning's body is abnormally surging after this first dual cultivation. The star power has been qualitatively improved at this moment. If Ye Ning was still some distance away from the Venerable Realm before, now he is really infinitely close.

To be precise, as long as he wants, he can cross that threshold at any time. The Venerable realm is no longer an obstacle for him!
However, this is not the time to break through. Although he feels that this Tantric Buddhism is somewhat different to him than he initially imagined, and even now he can decide whether to stay or go, Ye Ning still cannot trust this place.

After tidying himself up a little, Ye Ning looked at the pretty nun opposite him with some complicated look.

Although there was no physical contact in the dual cultivation just now, the two people were connected spiritually.

Do not!
To be precise, Saint Wuxin completely opened his heart to him, but the other party could not see anything about him.

There is no other reason. The dual cultivation just now was about master and slave. He was the master and Sheng Wuxin was the slave.

He saw all the other person's thoughts and experiences.

To be honest, the other person's life is really uneventful. He spends his entire life practicing joyful Zen. His entire life can almost be described as a blank sheet of paper.

Is it possible that the holy master in Tantric Buddhism is such a person?

Then how is it related to the [Origin Sect]?
