Chapter 1243 Interstellar Unification: Buddhism



One hundred years have passed since the Tianyu calendar. The Tianyuan Star Region

was once the territory of Buddhism. It was a complete one and Buddhism ruled here for a long time.

After the decisive battle in the Heavenly Palace, seven life stars in the Tianyuan Star Region were drained of their lives and became dead. It took more than 100,000 robots ten years just to deal with the corpses.

After that, there were decades of immigration from various planets, including the Mahayana Star.

Huiming appeared on a life star in the Tianyuan Star Region and visited the Buddhist temple.

The Buddhist temple is back, but it is different from before.

Lin Jiang's reform of the rule of Buddhism was bumpy. The policy was not too strict, nor was it too soft. He spent a lot of time and energy on research.

However, the current Buddhist structure has been determined. Buddhism still exists, but no Buddha Lord is allowed to appear. Buddhism has been split up.

There are also many differences in concepts within Buddhism, similar to the differences between Zen and Secret Collection. In the era of the Buddha Lord, the Buddha Lord suppressed Buddhism, and these concepts were definitely suppressed.

However, now that Lin Jiang is leading and supporting multiple Buddhist ideologies, Buddhism is naturally divided. After the division, Buddhism is equivalent to a sect or family under Lin Jiang. They can gather together, but they can no longer pose a threat to Lin Jiang.

The Buddhist temple has been reopened, and the Buddhist scriptures have been completely transformed. Many contents have been deleted, and it has become a real religion. Their activities are also limited to the scope of the Buddhist temple. They are not allowed to preach outside, and they are not allowed to force conversion. Once discovered, the Buddhist temple may be banned. This is religious freedom.

"Amitabha, I have seen the real Buddha."

When they arrived at the Buddhist temple, the host appeared and saluted Huiming.

Huiming is still a face figure in Buddhism, but there are several such face figures, not the only one.

"Host, no need to be polite, I just came to see how the Buddhist temple is now."

"The real Buddha, ah, it's hard to say..."

The host sighed and said. He was a person from the old era of Buddhism, so there would naturally be a big contrast.

He told Huiming about the current situation of the Buddhist temple. This Buddhist temple has a history of ten thousand years. It used to be the top power on this life planet. However, most of the Buddhists died in the war, and their property was confiscated by the Heavenly Domain. Now only the Buddhist temple has been returned to them, and the rest of the property has been confiscated.

In order to prevent the resurgence of Buddhism, the Heavenly Domain also strictly supervises Buddhism. The secular officials near the Buddhist temple come to check from time to time to see if they have used force to occupy the people's property, to see if they have forcibly converted believers, etc.

These actions are equivalent to putting a yoke on the head of the Buddhist temple. As a host from the old era, it is naturally very uncomfortable, not to mention the psychological gap.

"Host, stop while you are ahead. Buddhism is still there, and my Buddha is still there. This is the best ending."

"True Buddha, is my Buddha really still there?"

"The Buddha is in the heart."

Huiming smiled and shook his head. The Buddha is dead, but the Buddha is not dead. He is in the heart. As long as there is a Buddha in the heart, the Buddha is still there.

Huiming's Zen words did not make the host happy. His realm was not that high. He only felt that he lived very comfortably in the old times, but now he was very unhappy, but he had to endure it.

Huiming stayed in the Buddhist temple for two days and saw many pilgrims and believers coming to burn incense. He also talked with these pilgrims and believers for a long time and enlightened them with his wisdom.

Huiming knew that the hearts of these people at the bottom were still empty. Although the material under the command of the Heavenly Domain was very rich and the life span of ordinary mortals was also very long, the spiritual civilization construction had not kept up, and entertainment culture was not acceptable to everyone, so religion still existed.

There are many religions in the Heavenly Domain. Each planet has its own primitive religion, of course, except for Buddhism. Lin Jiang treats these religions equally. Now there is one more Buddhism.

After living for two days, Huiming left and went to another Buddhist temple. Buddhist temples are still blooming everywhere in the former Buddhist territory, but they are also under strict supervision.

Huiming even saw Buddhist practitioners being arrested during his travels. The reason was that they forced people to convert and then made them support Buddhism with all their wealth. They almost emptied their family assets and were discovered by secular officials.

"Master Huiming"

"Fellow Daoist Chen"

On this day, Huiming met Chen Jinfa while traveling.

He had dealt with Chen Jinfa many times over the years. Because Buddhist practitioners in the Buddhist sect had repeatedly committed crimes, many people were arrested by Chen Jinfa. The two sides inevitably had to deal with each other. Huiming also admired Chen Jinfa very much. Those who knew Chen Jinfa's rise to wealth admired him. Chen Jinfa was a representative of the rise of grassroots.

"Master Huiming, please forgive me. I have to trouble you again."

"Did someone commit a crime again this time?"

Huiming asked worriedly. Sometimes Huiming felt that Lin Jiang was very vicious. When Buddhist disciples committed crimes, he always asked Huiming and other Buddhist people to arrest them. He guessed that he wanted to test them.

"That's not the case. There is a meeting that I want you to attend. I come here to invite you personally."

"What meeting? A religious conference?"

"Half of it, it's about religious personnel abiding by the law and breaking the law. In recent years, many religious personnel have known the law but broken it, so we decided to hold a meeting with you religious leaders to participate in it. Let's convey the instructions from above to avoid breaking the law again."

"Lin Jiang still doesn't trust me."

"Master, you misunderstood. This time it will be really good for you. We are going to find some financial resources for you so that you don't lose your way and turn back."

"Ah"

"Over the years, we have been constantly summarizing why Buddhist disciples keep committing crimes. We, as law enforcement officers, not only have to crack down on crime, but also prevent crime. So we took the lead and decided to give you some benefits so that you can live and work in peace..."

Chen Jinfa said. They have been exploring how to manage Buddhist disciples. The original intention of the law is not to crack down on criminals. That is a matter for the future. They prefer to find ways to prevent people from committing crimes.

Through summary, they learned that the continuous crimes committed by Buddhist disciples were related to policies, especially after most of the Buddhist property was confiscated, Buddhist disciples were in trouble, and many people took the risk of breaking the law.

So they reported to Lin Jiang and decided to open up some financial resources for Buddhism. With money, Buddhist disciples are naturally willing to abide by the law. After all, born criminals are a minority.

This made Huiming a little interested, and he immediately chatted with Chen Jinfa. Chen Jinfa told Huiming that through the linkage of multiple departments, they have decided to develop some Buddhist temples as scenic spots. After all, most of the Buddhist temples are in the mountains of Mingchuan, and the scenery is still very good. With the distance of the war, the tourism industry has risen again.

In addition, there are many things that can be used. For example, as a sect under the command of Tianyu, the Buddhist practice is also preserved. In the future, the practice academy can also add Buddhist practice as teaching materials, so Buddhism can also open some practice training classes.

Tianyu can also give patent protection to some unique Buddhist elixirs, and Buddhism can also set up some companies to conduct normal commercial trade. Of course, the premise is to abide by the law and pay taxes. There is no preferential treatment in this regard.

These words made Huiming frown. These things were like a dose of poison. Even when he advocated reform in Buddhism, he wanted Buddhism to be relatively independent so that it could remain relatively pure. However, according to Lin Jiang's current practice, would there still be Buddhist disciples who were devoted to Buddhism in the future? They would not all be businessmen.

But Huiming had to swallow this dose of poison again, because Buddhism was currently helpless. Most of the property had been confiscated. Without income generation, Buddhist disciples would be in great trouble, which would force them to take risks and make money. In this way, the contradiction between Buddhism and the Heaven Realm could not be resolved and would eventually be wiped out.

"Master Huiming, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay. When will the meeting be held? I'll go to attend it."

"The time is one month later, one month in the Heaven Realm calendar, on the Mahayana Star. Don't be late. I'm going to notify other True Buddhas."

"Thank you, fellow Taoist Chen."

Huiming saluted and watched Chen Jinfa leave.

"I can't beat him, I really can't beat him."

Huiming looked at Chen Jinfa's back as he left, and sighed in his heart. Lin Jiang was still good at playing, and he couldn't beat Lin Jiang at all. This time, Liang Long was right. Buddhism would still exist, but it would no longer be Buddhism.

As for the future of Buddhism, no one knew what it would be like, and Huiming couldn't control it.
