Chapter 858 Listen Carefully! Listen Carefully!
Jing Wuzhen stopped the patrolling angel alone.
Below, Moggallana used his great supernatural power to suppress all evil thoughts.
But I saw Moggallana chanting loudly:
"In the Great Thousand World of Saha, all the eighty-four thousand Vajra Protectors from all heavens have come together to spread my name!"
"Those who recite my name will remove all grudges and subdue evil spirits."
"Those who recite my name! Eliminate demonic obstacles and grant peace."
"Those who chant my name! Inherit the power of the Buddha's mantra and eliminate all poisons."
"I wish to rely on my supernatural power to protect all sentient beings!"
"The Lord of all Vajras, destroys all evil."
"All water gods, remove water poison."
"The Gods of the Void can cure the diseases of time and energy."
"The gods of the earth will cure the great damage to the earth."
"Cai Ji Gaibu, relieve the poison of fire."
"All the wind gods, relieve the madness and paralysis."
"The Vajras of the Lotus Division are the great Dharma doors for liberation."
"All the Yakshas who walk in the sky, the Rakshasas who walk in the earth, etc., break their grievances and eliminate difficulties, and overcome all hardships."
"It's hard to get rid of the king, it's hard to get rid of the thieves, it's hard to get rid of the fire, it's hard to get rid of the wind, it's hard to get rid of the poison, it's hard to get rid of the swords and staffs, it's hard to get rid of the soldiers, it's gotta get rid of the famine, it's gotta get rid of thunder and lightning, it's gotta get rid of all kinds of dangers and obstacles, unless Life is in danger, and with the power of Buddha's mantra, all gold and silver poisons can be eliminated."
"Submit, quell disaster, hook, gain."
"Break all darkness, break all injustices, break all disasters, break all injustices, break all evil fates!"
"Overcome all difficulties, all adversities, all evil ways, all misfortunes!"
"I will repent with my body and mouth, please repent my heart, repent of my three deeds, and seek the Buddha's seal. All my deeds will be accomplished, and I will achieve complete Bodhi."
"This is the edict of the Buddha. Rely on the power of the Tathagata. You who listen carefully and recite my name will receive my protection!"
While Moggallana was reciting, he saw countless Vajras, ghosts and gods descending from the heavens, powerful Vajra gods and kings of all tribes, gods and generals in the great thousand realms and their retinues in heaven, Yakshas in the sky, Rakshasas in the earth, and even Asuras. Everyone, each armed with weapons and powerful generals.
The Great Brahma King, the Immeasurable Light Heaven, the Five Non-Returning Heavens, the Mojishou Heaven, and the Good Seeing Heaven.
Billions of beings in the six realms descended to listen to Moggallana's words and spread them everywhere.
But seeing the people in the city of dreams, at every level, there is a heavenly being clothed in rays of light. Some are dakinis and yakshas, some are powerful Vajras, some are asuras, and some are gods from Brahma. They keep walking, shouting, and spreading. The name 'Moggallana'.
This is the meaning of the Buddhist mantra just recited.
"In the Great Thousand World of Saha, all the eighty-four thousand Vajra Protectors from all heavens have come together to spread my name!"
He summoned 84,000 vajras of the heavens, and then asked each of these vajras to find people to preach the praises of Moggallana.
Then, in this area - "You who listen carefully and recite my name will be protected by me."
Anyone who hears this passage and keeps reciting the name of 'Moggallana' will be blessed!
The kongs keep spreading the name.
More and more people are hearing it.
Maybe it was because he was ill and he sought medical treatment, or maybe it was a dead horse that was treated as a living horse. Anyway, more and more people began to chant "Moggallana" loudly.
As a result, Moggallana's shadow began to appear in various places.
The red light is lingering, the purple light is clustered, the white light is rotating, and the flames are shining all over the place.
Originally, under the intrusion of demonic thoughts, countless sentient beings were seeking life and death, but they could not get what they wanted. They sometimes traveled on dangerous roads or suffered from nightmares. As the years went by, they became miserable, moaned in sleep, and were miserable and unhappy.
All sentient beings, whether dreaming or sleeping, seeing demonic thoughts, or seeing various forms, whether sad, crying, worried, sighing, fearful, or frightened, will not die well.
This is real... torture.
The fatigue of working overtime and the pain of being criticized by the boss.
Inhuman indifference and hard-hearted egoism are everywhere.
There is no regard for the health and convenience of the residents at all. Everyone's only thought is to make as much money as possible and outcompete others. Anyway, no matter how bad the hut is, there will always be poor people who can't afford to rent a good house.
It's still people eating people, it's still such cruel competition.
It seems that from a certain day, the pressure on these people is not too great. They can still survive on the whole. If they persist, they can get new skills and feed others. Maybe they can succeed and leave here to go to other places. Expand your ambitions.
However, he is extremely numb. He is exhausted and doing work that is purely mechanical and has no innovation. He repeats the work day after day. His body may be fine, but he is constrained by poverty. The reason is that he is ignorant and numb. Step on the ground.
Various "systems" govern administration, medical care, education, and even religion. They will continue to be "numb" until they collapse physically and mentally.
Or...give up.
Stop chasing your dreams and have fun. One day is one day. Play every day and play for one day. If you can play for one day and three days, you won’t play for two days. You will be confused and ignorant. Don’t feel confused and worried about the future, let alone any future problems. And trouble.
In this city of dreams, "life is short, take pleasure in the moment" and live a "happy and happy" life every day. There is wine today and you will be drunk today, and you will be worried tomorrow.
It is precisely because of this that there are so many things and tragedies.
People in the entire city are equally numb and indifferent, and they are all wrapped in deep pain.
The demonic thoughts here are so heavy. In such an environment, how could the demonic thoughts not be heavy?
Behind this are all the "magic ways" that are leading the way. They use various methods, competition, and everything available to turn the extreme south of the world into this.
And now, after all this has exploded——
"Although it may be a bit arrogant to say this, but... I'm late. From now on, leave it to me." Maudgalyayana, who kept chanting the Buddhist mantra, said so.
Maudgalyayana actually wanted to come a long time ago.
However, he finally found that he was not capable enough to solve the problems of the entire Dream City, so he had put it aside until today.
However, in fact, he has always been working on other things. Maudgalyayana used his magical powers to constantly fight against the demons outside the domain and changed many such cities in the universe.
His next goal happened to be the Dream City of the World.
It was precisely because of this that when he heard that Li Qi had a way, he joined Li Qi without hesitation under the introduction of Shariputra, wanting to at least change the city. Even if he could not destroy it, at least the result would be good.
Although he had not come before, he is here now.
In the Dream City, more and more mortals began to chant the name of 'Maudgalyayana'.
Maudgalyayana's magical powers also spread to them, dispelling their evil thoughts, protecting them from the approach of evil spirits, soothing their minds, and persuading them to suffer.
And he did not slack off at all because of the vanity of ordinary people.
Although ordinary people are also vanity to him, the Buddhist view of vanity is somewhat different.
Emptiness is color, color is emptiness. In the eyes of Buddhism, not to mention these mortals with reality, even they themselves, these so-called "real" powerful people, are actually empty.
When Buddhism talks about emptiness, it means that this world is illusory in itself.
The universe "arise due to cause and condition", and naturally it will "perish when cause and condition are exhausted". The "formation, residence, destruction and emptiness" of the universe itself is active.
Under objective laws, the Buddha will die and the world will perish. This is natural.
There is no doomsday judgment. What you get is the retribution for what you do.
Even the Buddha himself could not change any of the rules of cause and effect - he just discovered these rules and tried his best to educate others with the wisdom and rules he had realized.
The essence of the world is that countless dust particles or silk strings interact with each other, entangled together, and become a large network of cause and effect, which in turn forms all kinds of visible things, whether it is external matter or the inner mind, its essence is the same.
Going further, do these dust particles and silk strings exist forever? They are just following certain laws, born from the void, and will eventually dissipate into the void.
When the universe is coming to an end, even the laws themselves will be broken, and then replaced by a new universe and new laws. "All conditioned phenomena are like dreams and bubbles" means this. Aren't all the joys and sorrows of this world, at their root, the gathering and dispersal of laws in an instant?
The so-called "emptiness of dependent origination", "boundless space", "dreams and bubbles" themselves reveal the emptiness of this world, but no matter how empty this world is, "Dharma" is real.
This is what is called "Dharma".
So, are these mortals the embodiment of the Dharma?
Undoubtedly, yes.
So, they are real.
Then, I should save them, and this is the new "origin".
Maudgalyayana's Dharma image began to become dim, and the Dharma image that was originally radiant and shining with seven treasures was gradually eroded by evil thoughts.
It was too much for him to bear the evil thoughts of sentient beings.
There are two most famous Buddhist masters who use supernatural powers to transform the world, one is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and the other is Amitabha Buddha.
Reciting the name of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva can free you from the sufferings of hell.
Reciting the name of Amitabha Buddha can make a lotus grow on the spot, and after death, you will be reborn in the Pure Land of Bliss in the West, and you will not be tortured by reincarnation.
But the prerequisite is that you need to be "sincere".
With their supernatural powers, they still need to set a threshold. It can be imagined that such pressure is very great.
Now that Maudgalyayana has given him help without any threshold, it is really a bit arrogant. You should know that these two, one is of the second rank and the other is of the first rank, their great power is far beyond the reach of Maudgalyayana, a Buddhist disciple.
Of course, the areas they are responsible for are also different. Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva saves the entire "underworld", which is as huge as the world of the living.
And Amitabha Buddha runs through ancient and modern times. At any time, any place, any area, as long as you chant the Buddha's name, you can be led. It can be said to be endless, using infinite magical powers to do infinite things.
What Maudgalyayana has to deal with is just an area like the Dream City. Counting the caves and worlds inside, it is probably at the level of tens of billions of worlds.
He can still bear it with gritted teeth.
His death limit is far from over.
Jing Wuzhen, Maudgalyayana, each resisted one side.
And Shariputra looked around.
"Ah, that's it." Shariputra looked around, and six demon kings had already appeared here.
"Four demon kings, control four nodes respectively, guide the demon thoughts below, and then the six of you come to deal with me, are you not afraid of the patrol angels now?" Shariputra looked at the six demon kings around him.
"No, Buddha, you are wrong." At this time, one of the demon kings said.
Then, the next demon king said: "We are not going to fight you, because there is no need."
After that, another demon king said: "We just need to stay on the eve of the battle."
Another demon king continued: "Then, that warrior must stop the patrol angels, because your weakness makes you unable to accept the annihilation of mortals."
The next demon king continued: "The side with the hostages is at a huge disadvantage."
Shariputra just looked at them.
To be honest, their speech is very strange. Each person only speaks one sentence, and then the next person takes over. Many people join together to speak a complete language.
Shariputra knew that this was because these demon kings had merged into one, and their minds were now completely connected. It was said that there were six of them, but in fact there was only one.
"But in this case, you will lose miserably. As long as I am here, the battle will never be lost. Jing Wuzhen can stop the patrolling angels, and Moggallana can also suppress all the demonic thoughts. When Li Qi suppresses the demonic thoughts, When you wake up, it's your time to die," Shariputra said calmly.
"Through the early arrangements, we have evened the gap with you. If it were a head-on fight, the four of you would join forces... No, you don't even need four, as long as you and Li Qi, or you and Mu Jian Two people can win for sure." The demon kings once again said one sentence each. This sentence was divided into nine paragraphs, and it took nine turns to read it.
However, the strange thing is that they speak very smoothly. Even if they have different voices, the tone and continuity sound like they have just changed the timbre.
"Yes, by taking advantage of our emphasis on mortals and the special geographical location of the world, you have evened the gap, but it seems that it is not even enough. What will you do after Li Qi wakes up?" Shariputra asked.
"Li Qi wakes up? It's possible that he won't wake up." The demon kings said this.
"You are really confident, so even this poor monk can say for sure." Shariputra changed his name and walked out: "You devils! No matter whether you win or lose, you can't leave here!"
"The patrolling angel has been stopped by Donor Jing, so if you don't take action, the poor monk will!"
After saying this, Shariputra's Dharma erupted!
The Dharma is solemn, and it raises its body to magnify the light, illuminating hundreds of thousands of billions of Ganges sands and other Buddha worlds, emitting loud sounds, and emitting all kinds of lights from its face. Its light shines like hundreds of thousands of suns, shaking the dusty lands in the ten directions, and reveals the power of the Buddha for a moment!
The great voice of the Dharma said: "Listen, listen, listen! All sentient beings have come from the beginning without all kinds of perversions, and their karma is natural, such as the accumulation of evil. Practitioners will not be able to achieve the supreme Bodhi, and even become Shravakas and Praekabuddhas." Heretics, demon kings, and their descendants!”
"All are subject to the power of Buddha and the wrath of Arhat!"
His Dharma form suddenly transformed into an angry-eyed Vajra, and a fourth-grade war was launched! (End of chapter)
