We know, buddha textbook is not indigenous religion of China, our existent buddhism is ancient time from India there pass, the India that awaits in those days also calls Tian Zhu, the Buddha at that time manages and do not suit China, the course evolves for many times, buddha manage and culture of this locality tradition undertake confluence, the thought undertakes communicating, the be religious person that final summary gives to suit Chinese buddhism to let China most learns. So present buddhism has our country 3 kinds, it is respectively Chinese pass, Tibet is passed, south pass buddhism. Buddhism passes into Chinese process also is not downwind downstream on the history, a lot of evil bonze had gone out on the history, be called " bewitching monk " , so the Buddhist has experienced a lot of dynasty emperors " destroy Buddha " the action, in China in the harships 5000, want many times " death " , lucky however ground saved the result to come down, circulate up to now.
After knowing Buddhist history, what we should tell is a dignitary, empty cloud a Buddhist monk, he can say is all in all existence is in whole and Buddhist culture, that is to say the word all corners of the country of Buddhist assimilate to, he is the character like be the acknowledged leader, Mount Taishan and the Big Dipper. He manages in transmission Buddha all one's life, it is in order to revitalize buddhism oneself, boundless beneficence, he asks strictly oneself, teach by personal example as well as verbal instrution, it is a dignitary. For the Buddha academia at that time education goes a lot of famous monks, his thought is in unmanned at that time can enemy, have even ruler hear of, then buddhism gives out heat in the glow in his hand, renown shake temporarily.
He once had told Buddha to manage to Shi Chuanyin, Shi Yicheng, should know these two are in later ages is very famous, it is two dignitary. Because reputation is true too big, knew even the Jiang Jieshi that at that time is not Buddhist believer to this gets dignitary, and a lot of societies have a personage, house to distinguished family to want to grabbing the Buddha that goes listening to this Great Master to manage at that time, it is his devotional believer, can see this Great Master is in at that time is a Buddhist monk of a sainted really.
Everybody praises empty cloud a Buddhist monk, should knowing the Great Master's comprehension is tall is inherent, he in one's childhood very understanding Buddha manages, become a master inherently namely simply, do not know tower above than others how many grade. Other children are learning 123, learn Kong Mengyu to record, he begins to understand sutra, generated huge interest to buddhism, want to become a monk or nun anyhow, calculate a family member not to agree, he also should be become bonze! His family is persuaded ah persuade, persuade not to move him namely, he obstinate realized his dream 8 years eventually in Xian Feng, tonsure became a monk or nun, he what step fane feels magical bright energy of life is quiet, he is resolved must carry forward buddhism.
This bonze should be become the days of lifetime, the Great Master is a Great Master, the ginseng that he manages to Buddha is realized at that time nobody can be reached, the intelligence that he is depending on himself and realize force to study power of Buddha not only with lifetime time, the route that in research Buddha manages goes longer more, still tell Buddha to the person everywhere, the hope is Everyman to also can know power of Buddha, urge a person to be apt to, he is then bigger and bigger to the influence of common people.
This gets the advanced age that dignitary lived to be 120 years old unexpectedly finally, can be imagined this Great Master did how many meddlesome ability to live to be in lifetime such advanced age. What we say those who get dignitary to die to say is " Parinirvana " , and this Great Master is with respect to Parinirvana in thatched shack of his Yun Jushan cogongrass, his bedroom is spare, a word kept on the in him wood desk before Parinirvana -- " Buddhist monastic discipline " , this Great Master with brilliant lifetime wants what to convey, to now Ren Ran does not have ginseng to appear up to now
