The spacious hall was filled with high-ranking members of the White Lotus Sect.
Those who are well-informed naturally know what happened today, and those who came back from outside are trying to find out the news.
A young-looking man walked in. Everyone saluted him, waved their hands, said nothing, and sat in the main seat.
Huang Yunling entered the hall next. Everyone, including the young man sitting in the main seat, bowed respectfully. Huang Yunling did not say anything and sat on the left side of the main seat.
Soon, Wu Yanying led Monk Faxin in.
Faxin looked at the two people sitting on the stage. The young man looked vaguely like the Ninth Prince, and his expression was very similar to Huang Yunling next to him, both showing no joy or sadness.
"Amitabha, Faxin greets you all."
"You said I took the wrong path?"
A cold voice sounded in the hall. The White Lotus monks knew it was their own Holy Mother who was speaking and were quite surprised.
Some of them might have known before that someone was coming to cause trouble, but they didn't expect it to be like this. If the Holy Mother was on the wrong path, wouldn't this be a fundamental denial of the White Lotus Sect and of them?
Faxin saw the anger gradually rising on these people's faces, and he felt quite sad for Huang Yunling. He never expected that the "poisonous widow" back then would end up in such a situation today.
It seems like everyone is attacking someone if they disagree with something.
"That's right. Your White Lotus doctrine is too narrow."
"Boom~"
This one sentence caused an uproar. Even the "Maitreya" could not sit still and stood up. He sat down again after being glanced at by Huang Yunling.
Several of the people below had spiritual energy surging in their bodies, and were ready to make a move.
"Silence!" Wu Yanying spoke. With her status, position, and strength, she was able to bring the situation under control with just two words.
"Then tell me, what is wrong with my White Lotus teachings?"
Faxin threw away his robe and walked to the center of the hall, looking around with compassion in his eyes.
He spoke as the people around him looked a little uncomfortable and frowned.
"Today, I gather with you not to argue about right or wrong, but to seek liberation."
"The Buddha's teachings are profound and boundless, and they focus on enlightenment and compassion. However, after hearing about the White Lotus, you still talk about Maitreya coming to the world to save it. This is really outrageous and ignorant. Such behavior has deviated far from the Buddha's teachings."
This time, he really stirred up a hornet's nest, and this time he directed his spearhead directly at the Holy Son sitting in the main seat.
How could they accept this?
The dignity and legitimacy of the existence of "Maitreya" were questioned. Even the most good-tempered White Lotus followers could not accept it. Even those hiding under the White Lotus felt that it was too straightforward.
Although they did not agree with the White Lotus doctrine and the idealistic theory of Maitreya's incarnation, at least the logic was self-consistent. What's more, they still needed the White Lotus to exist, so under Wu Yanying's subtle gaze, one by one they also became outraged.
Faxin still had the same expression, no panic on his face. He just pressed down with one hand, using his spiritual power to continue expressing his views in the midst of the hustle and bustle.
"All conditioned phenomena are like dreams, illusions, bubbles, and shadows; like dew and lightning, they should be viewed in this way."
"The coming of Maitreya Buddha is a matter of the future, not today. The true Dharma is to cultivate mindfulness and treat all living beings with compassion."
After saying these two sentences, Huang Yunling's expression finally changed and her face became much more serious. She had seen this sentence before. It was mentioned in the original version of the White Lotus Doctrine. At that time, this sentence shocked her greatly.
And now she actually heard it from someone else's mouth, and she was sensitive enough to hear the word "Buddha", Maitreya Buddha.
Perhaps she was about to find what she had been searching for all these years.
Over the years, as her understanding of the original teachings deepened and her experience increased, she could always feel that there were many unreasonable or illogical aspects in the teachings given by Qin Xu.
She always had a feeling that Qin Xu seemed to have heard it from somewhere and then mixed it together.
In recent years, she has been classifying and distinguishing them, and found that many of the descriptions, even those that were contradictory, mentioned the word "Buddha", which made her happy and confused.
She was happy that she had a deeper understanding of the teachings and began to have her own thoughts, but she was confused about what Buddha really was.
And today she heard what she had been thinking about from the mouth of a great monk who called himself Fa Xin.
Of course, she knew what was going on with the White Lotus Sect now, and she did not deny that she had added some personal opinions. After all, she was not only a monk pursuing transcendence, but also a mother, and she had to add some protection for herself and her son.
I saw Faxin still expressing his views in this noisy environment.
"When Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva practiced the profound Prajnaparamita, he saw that the five aggregates were empty and was able to overcome all suffering."
"The true Dharma is to look into one's heart and realize that the essence of all phenomena is emptiness, thus transcending the sufferings of birth and death and reaching the other shore of liberation. It is not to be deceived by the illusions of the outside world, and it is even more wrong to confuse people's minds in the name of the incarnation of Maitreya Buddha."
"I think you are the one who is misleading people!"
A Nascent Soul cultivator standing in the front row shouted and attacked Fa Xin directly.
It was natural for this person to take action. He was a fanatic, someone that Wu Yanying and Dou Zhengyuan could not "persuade".
It's a pity that although the noise was loud, the effect was poor. No, it should have been very good, but the effect was not aimed at Faxin, but at other people present.
As soon as he opened the robe, the magic disappeared.
Then Faxin suddenly disappeared from the spot and suddenly appeared behind the fanatic who was rushing over.
One hand directly covered the other person's head.
Press down hard and it will collide with the ground and explode.
The movements were smooth and fluid, and when everyone reacted, they only saw Monk Faxin smiling and putting a Nascent Soul into his bowl.
"The Buddha has a compassionate heart, but also has the angry eyes of a diamond. This donor has been bewildered by demons in his heart. I will save one or two of them. Amitabha."
Although Faxin was smiling at this time, his eyes were different, as if he was looking down on them with disdain.
Everyone present seemed to see a huge Buddha statue appear behind Faxin, with lowered eyebrows and eyes, angry without being angry.
"Dear donors, the Dharma is in the heart, not outside. As long as you have good thoughts and do good deeds, it is the best practice."
"Your way, right?"
The people on the field couldn't hear anything, but Huang Yunling, with her comprehension, understood it.
She also began to understand why she always felt that there were some uncomfortable aspects of the White Lotus Doctrine.
But for someone who just acted decisively and ruthlessly, isn't it a bit unnecessary to talk about mercy?
But she didn't care much. As far as her future was concerned, everyone present could be abandoned, even her own son.
"Is the monk's way right? Or is it right to attack and hurt someone just because of a disagreement?"
"I am saving that donor, out of great compassion. As for my path you mentioned?"
"That is not my path, it is the path of this world as numerous as sand. This is the golden path of Mahayana Buddhism, taught by the Buddha of the Western Paradise. How can it be wrong?"
