Chapter 291 Spiritual confrontation(1/2)
Gongga Mountain, in Tibetan, "Gong" means ice and snow, and "Ga" means white, which means "white iceberg" and also means "the highest snow mountain".
In Tibet, it is commonly known as the Snow Mountain.
Longchenpa, as the "Rinpoche" of this generation, has always stayed here at Gonggar Monastery on the Snowy Mountains.
It has been almost a hundred years since he took over this title from the previous generation "Rinpoche"!
For more than a hundred years, he has been practicing Buddhism, sorting out missing and damaged classics, or training disciples to help the Tibetans for decades, which earned him a high degree of respect and belief.
And since he achieved success in practicing the Supreme Yoga Tantra and obtained "innate wisdom", he felt that he could understand the weather and understand the movement of wind and rain.
When will there be frost? When will the sky be clear? When will there be heavy snowstorms...??
These miraculous performances made all insiders respect Longchenpa as a god. When talking about Longchenpa in private, they would not call him by his first name.
Either call him Longchenpa Rinpoche or Longchenpa Rinpoche.
And this day.
The hunched-over Longchenpa, who was over a hundred years old, suddenly felt something in his heart, and he sensed that something closely related to him was about to happen.
He followed this feeling and realized it, but he didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing?!
After giving the order, he soon received news that a man and a woman were heading towards the Snowy Mountains.
The man and the woman were very young, and Longchenpa didn't take them seriously at all. He felt that his whim had nothing to do with them.
But when the two of them climbed onto the Snow Mountain, Longchenpa was shocked.
Because, Daxue Mountain...has changed!!
He has stayed in the Snowy Mountains for a hundred years, and he can see every plant and tree in the Snowy Mountains like a palm. In his spiritual induction, his aura and the aura of the Snowy Mountains are in perfect harmony.
But as soon as Hong Kang set foot on the Snowy Mountains, he felt a magnificent aura and advanced into the Snowy Mountains with a powerful gesture.
Longchenpa immediately knew that he had made a mistake.
In Longchenpa's perception, the young man was like a big furnace. He seemed to be just a human body, but he was so hot that wherever he went, the natural aura was affected and became centered on him.
“I’ve never seen such a capable person!!”
And the purpose of this pair of male and female laymen seems to be to come for their tantric Dharma-protecting magical skill "Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill"!
I just don’t know if I’m really here for this, or if there are other purposes?
However, no matter what, people have already gone up the mountain, so it would be rude not to greet them.
At that moment, Longchenba sent the only little Zaba beside him to greet him at the door.
…………
Hong Kang entered Gonggar Temple under the guidance of Xiao Zhaba.
The temple covers a small area, about two acres, and the temple is like a courtyard.
Hong Kang asked: "Why is the temple so deserted? There are only two people."
Little Zhaba replied: "The monks Zhabamen of the temple usually gather in Xin Gongga Temple. Due to the high cold and remoteness here, there is usually only one Zhaba here to chant sutras, clean the temple, and serve the master."
Pang Qingyang said: "New Gonggar Temple?"
Little Zhaba said: "It's halfway up a mountain behind Liuba Township. If you want to ride a horse here, it will take about a day and a half. The Khenpo and the great lamas are all over there."
Pang Qingyang looked at little Zaba, who was still in his teens, and said, "Have you always been alone?"
Pang Qingyang felt that this young monk must have been bullied by the older monks because he was small and weak, so he was sent to this bitter cold place.
Little Zaba smiled and said: "Other brothers and sisters would like to come, but they can't debate me."
Pang Qingyang: "..."
Looking at little Zaba's smiling face, it seems that coming here is a good job, and many people are vying to come here.
Pang Qingyang was stunned for a moment, then he figured it out in a flash of his mind, secretly thinking that he had been wrong just now.
This is the place where "Rinpoche" practices practice. If you can serve here, you can ask for advice sooner or later!
Well... although the living conditions are a bit more difficult.
"This is the Sutra Hall."
Pang Qingyang followed the direction pointed by Xiao Zhaba and saw the strange but majestic Buddha statue enshrined above. It was completely different from what he had seen in the temples in the Central Plains.
Then he asked: "Which Buddha and Bodhisattva is this worshiping?"
Little Drakba introduced: “The statue of the Eight Incarnations of Padmasambhava, the founder of Tibetan Buddhism, is enshrined above the sutra hall, as well as the two dakinis of “Khendrup Yeshe Shugyal” and “Nagyamendana”
Mother Buddha.”
Pang Qingyang said: "Kanzhu Yixi is wrong...forget it, it's too hard to say."
After walking about ten meters, Pang Qingyang said: "I know this, it's Master Guanyin!"
What catches the eye is a colorfully clad, thousand-armed, thousand-eyed Guanyin Bodhisattva about five meters high. Guanyin Bodhisattva is surrounded by two layers of prayer wheels.
However, Pang Qingyang did not know the prayer wheel. Hong Kang explained: "This is when monks put mantras, mantras and other scriptures in the prayer wheel and turn it by hand. Each rotation is equivalent to chanting the scripture once, which means repetition.
Reciting mantras hundreds and thousands of times."
"Isn't this laziness?!"
Pang Qingyang wanted to blurt it out, but he still had sense and did not say it.
In her opinion, reciting sutras is like practicing swordsmanship, which must be practiced thousands of times. She can't just read the sword manual once and practice it once!
…………
Little Zhaba led Hong and Kang to a side house.
"Master, it's inside the house. Please let the two laymen enter the house on your own!"
Then, he put his palms together and slowly stepped back.
"Brother...?"
Pang Qingyang looked at Hong Kang and felt something was wrong.
"It's okay, you wait here, I'll go in by myself."
Hong Kang expressed his relief, and under the influence of his spiritual sense, there was only an old monk in the room whose energy and blood were declining.
Squeak~
The wooden door opens.
What appeared in front of Hong Kang was an old lama with rickety skin, sitting cross-legged on the ground.
"Amitabha~!"
“Where do our distinguished guests come from??”
The moment the old lama raised his head, Hong Kang felt that his cloudy old eyes suddenly became brighter, as if they contained endless wisdom and beauty, and Hong Kang's attention was immediately attracted to them.
"I……!"
Hong Kang felt the scene in front of him change and he appeared in a field of ice and snow. He immediately knew that he had been "hit".
"Hmph! Interesting, hehe..."
Hong Kang sneered and said: "This is the first time in this world that I have been pulled into someone else's spiritual world. Tsk tsk tsk..."
He looked around, and this land of ice and snow felt a bit like the crystal vastness of the Snowy Mountains, white and pure, sacred and inviolable.
"But, do you think you are the only one who knows the art of spirituality?!"
"You will know how dangerous your move is!"
As soon as Hong Kang finished speaking, his whole body began to shine brightly, and endless heat was continuously released from his body.
In just an instant, the heat melted a large hole in the snowfield with a radius of 100 meters in Hongkang.
The old lama was nowhere to be seen, but his voice sounded out of thin air.
"I have only seen the spiritual strength of lay people in my life, and I admire it greatly!"
Wind suddenly blew on the snow, and the wind became stronger and soon formed a snow tornado, covering the sky and the earth, heading towards Hongkang.
If it were an ordinary warrior, I'm afraid he would immediately feel like retreating.
Facing this kind of power of heaven and earth, how can human beings be invincible?!
But Hong Kang knows that this is a spiritual world and cannot be explained by the common sense of the real world.
If he were in the outside world and saw this earth-shattering scene, Hong Kang would turn around and retreat without saying a word.
But in the spiritual world, the spirits, souls, wills and other metaphysical things of both parties competing, otherwise, how could he melt a hundred meters of snow with his own heat!!
"Boom~~!"
Infinite light and heat are constantly emerging from Hong Kang's body.
Gradually, Hong Kang's figure was enveloped in infinite light and heat, and looked like a small sun from a distance.
No!
