This old monk is so happy that the people admire everything they see and respectfully call him "Bitty Gua Old Monk", but there are still many living beings who can't help but say: Bitter Gua Monk, you are so old, it's so fragrant, how can you do it?

This old monk is so happy that people admire everything they see, and respectfully called him "Bitty Gua Old Monk", but there are still many people who can't help but say: Bitty Gua Monk, you are so old, it's so fragrant, how can you do it? The old monk was a hundred years old, wearing a pure sandalwood smell and a unique martial arts skills, which made all living beings amazed. How could I know, the old monk laughed and said his lifelong character with just a few words. A series of extraordinary practices have made the hearts of sentient beings even more full of lotus flowers.

"He is sandalwood , and has a unique martial arts skills. He practices throughout his life for the sake of the natural Buddhas."

"He is like a child, and is an old naughty child among living Buddhas."

"He doesn't know why leeks and eggs taste, and he doesn't know how to deceiving the worldly laws. He even treats it as true in the fantasy books."

In my opinion, he showed the purest Dharma of Buddha nature to sentient beings.

He is a hundred-year-old monk in Guanyin Ancient Cave in Zhongnan Mountain, Old Monk Puguang . People kindly called him: Old Monk Bitter Melon.

Next, let us enter the legendary practice life of Monk Puguang and understand this old naughty boy's unique path of Buddha nature. I believe that after reading, you will be as confused as me and lament how could such a monk be there in the world? It's really incredible. However, this really exists.

If thousands of Zen monks in the world have achieved enlightenment from the subdistricts, As the saying goes: Before the Buddha becomes a Buddha, they are all sentient beings, and they are ordinary people like you and me. Then, the bitter gourd monk became this special existence. Since his birth, he has been destined to be in this life.

People in the world say that bad news will fall from the sky mercilessly in the road of life, telling the true meaning of the impermanence of life.

However, Monk Puguang's life's bad luck came so quickly.

8 months ago, the old monk had both his parents died and lost both his parents. He had not grown up and had not yet recognized his parents' appearance, so he became an orphan, which was really sad.

However, young babies still need to grow up, that is, fostering in other people's homes, and the number of lives that are brought in may become confused and tortuous. Without the care of parents, perhaps, they will spend their lives in a hurry with the pain of lack, and they will have many misfortunes and more suffering than hope, which will make all living beings sigh.

"This child is pitiful, this life is just like this."

Unexpectedly, the arrival and raising of a kind person completely set the fate of the old monk in this life. All of this is like God could no longer bear to see this child suffer, and he should have brought down the rain early in this extremely pitiful person's fate.

This kind-hearted person is the master of Shaolin Temple. The master immediately picked up Monk Puguang and decided to raise him into a human. At this moment, Pu Guang, who was still in his infancy, had not yet experienced the world and entered Buddhism in this way. The seeds of Buddha nature have taken root steadily in his young heart.

At this moment, no one had ever thought that now, Pu Guang, who is still a baby, will become a legend in a generation and save all living beings a hundred years later.

Life is impermanent, and the extraordinary light illuminates the fog of his future and opens the curtain of this long practice.

Children grow up day by day. The master immediately taught Buddhist scriptures and taught Shaolin martial arts unique skills since childhood. However, the master's teaching method is so strange, and his series of behaviors are even more confusing:

Monk Puguang just learned to speak, and he should have taught him to read like other children. After all, practicing requires taking it slowly, and being able to read is the foundation of the foundation. But the master gave up teaching him to read and only taught him to recite. It was extremely strict:

"Three scriptures a day must be memorized before they can be fed a bite of food." The educational method of

is incomprehensible, and this feeding...a full 15 years.

html Between 15, the great Buddhist scriptures and mantras have been integrated into the heart. That is, in the next hundred years, although they cannot read a word, they can recite the great classic scriptures and mantras in a word.

Many people don’t understand it.I don't know why Master did this. Little did they know that when everything suddenly became enlightened, everyone praised it. This was the master's extremely good intention.

does not teach literacy, but only memorizes scriptures. It is originally to allow the scriptures, Buddhist principles and Buddha nature to be integrated in the heart and be understood by one's own heart. You will not be attached to the form of words because of this, so as to achieve the state of invisible and formlessness. Perhaps, Master had long seen Pu Guang's extraordinary achievements in the future, and he would definitely help him pave the way ahead.

Among the young monks, Pu Guang did not disappoint his master. His behavior not only stood out among the young monks, but also made the master laugh:

"The child can teach, it is really a child can teach, hahaha." Unexpectedly, when the master pinched the little monk's little chirping, the other monks screamed in pain, and only Xiao Pu Guang laughed. The master should be very happy and resolutely taught Pu Guang Boy's martial arts alone.

standing every day, standing at 11 pm to 5 pm, and practicing under the pure and pure air. During this period, people fell asleep. It was when the world had the least thoughts of worldly worldly dust, and the little Pu Guang began his own path of asceticism. Then, 47 Shaolin skills were taught one by one. In this way, it laid the foundation for his future legendary path.

Long practice has been in a hurry for several years, and this flash has been 1927. Pu Guang's life is obviously lucky. The compassionate teachings of the rebirth father made him feel the warmth of the world and realized the mystery of Buddha nature. I thought Pu Guang would grow up next to Master and spend his whole life in a hurry.

However, misfortunes followed one after another like a bolt from the blue. It was bad news, and it became a turning point in his life.

Master taught the martial arts with his lifelong strength and was about to pass away. There are only a few truths to warn Pu Guang for his whole life. This warning is like the master has already had an insight into Pu Guang's destiny and helps him achieve himself. All of this is like this Master who personally went to the mortal world for the Buddha to save this naughty child and live Buddha throughout his life, and help him return to his position as soon as possible.

"Pu Guang, you must not deal with people before the age of 60. It is best to go into the mountains to practice well. The women in this world are the ancestors of tigers, and men in this world will design and harm you." The earnest warning has a bit of funny and scaring Pu Guang, so that Pu Guang can truly clear the world and practice with all his heart.

Master fell in the world.

And the legendary road of Puguang's second half of his life has quietly arrived. This year, Pu Guang was 22 years old.

Remember the master and took the monk who was a few years younger and plunged into Changbai Mountain. One day, practice martial arts hard and practice meditation. When you are hungry, you will eat wild fruits among trees, and when you are thirsty, you will drink spring water in the forest.

The two monks settled down in the deep forest of Changbai Mountain. Unexpectedly, the practice in the deep mountains made them distinguished guests in the forest, and a series of legendary journeys were truly extraordinary.

two people use the method of kung fu to subdue countless beasts in the forest. Some tigers refused to convert and wanted to eat them. The two monks actually punched the tiger seriously and snatched their eyes. But also keep in mind the compassionate heart, feed the tiger with roasted potatoes , healing it and raising it. This is 8 years of raising.

There are countless animals willing to convert to the two monks. They recite scriptures and Buddha. Pu Guang couldn't move the thunder 108 times a day. All the animals sat beside them and nodded from time to time, as if they had realized the truth and understood it.

In this way, the two continued to improve their skills and became disciples of animals to save their hearts. Perhaps, they will spend their lives peacefully in this forest.

Until one day, a thought arose in Puguang's heart, and all kinds of doubts were in his heart.

"You can't always use martial arts as a method. No matter how good your martial arts are, it is easy to hurt people. This will not make you realize the Tao." That's the idea. The new path of cultivation has once again arrived as scheduled...

At this time, the two people realized that a good place to practice is Zhongnanshan . Only by practicing there may you truly realize the truth. But these words seemed to make the chimpanzees and animals beside them understand, and they actually pulled the corners of their clothes, as if they were saying : "Don't leave." It means he is reluctant to leave.

The two had no choice but to take advantage of the orangutan's sleep and resolutely bid farewell to Changbai Mountain.

All the road is hard, and it is a long journey for several months.In this way, I walked from Changbai Mountain to Zhongnan Mountain.

Zhongnan Mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland, which makes the two monks very happy. This place is right.

Little do you know that what awaits them is actually a more difficult life of cultivation.

This Changbai Mountain can at least satisfy your hunger with wild fruits, but Zhongnan Mountain only has bark and leaves. This is not bad. When you first come here, you are rarely visited, so you still need to find a place to practice.

Unexpectedly, the two monks' behavior was extraordinary. It makes people amazed at the courage of this martial arts man, and it makes people laugh even more.

Can’t find a suitable place to practice, so just go into the tiger’s cave. The two monks actually threw out the little tiger in the cave and treated the tiger cave as their home.

Of course, the tigress couldn't swallow his breath when he saw the two monks snatching his hole and throwing his child out. Then he fought with the two monks.

Little did he know that this tiger was not the opponent of these two monks. Pu Guang beat the tiger out in one by one.

I saw two tigers in a state of dirt, so I had to go away in disappointment, but I couldn't beat them, but I couldn't beat them.

Just like that, the two monks lived in this tiger cave. If there is no fruit to satisfy your hunger, then chew the bark, eat the leaves, or even grind the dried leaves into ash, and rinse them with cold water. Although it was difficult and difficult, although the two could go down the mountain to go to the other party to fill their hunger, the two monks still kept in mind the teachings of their master and would not see anyone before the age of 60.

is as the monk Puguang said funny : "You treat it as bark leaves, it is bark leaves, you treat it as dough noodles, it is dough noodles."

Day after day, the two monks meditated, and the Shurangama Mantra 108 times a day cannot be beaten. They feed on leaves, use caves as home, and continue their own way of practicing.

Time flies, and it has been several years. The two of them knew that they could not stay in the tiger cave and practice all the time. They must be familiar with the surrounding environment and find out if there is a more suitable place to practice.

searches all the way. Fortunately, the emperor pays off. An ancient cave appears in front of them like a fairyland. That is the Guanyin Ancient Cave at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters in Zhongnan Mountain.

Outside the cave, the scenery is beautiful, and there is a glance of thousands of miles of mountains. This place is the place where many practitioners in ancient and modern times have attained enlightenment. This must be the most suitable place. The two of them stayed without saying a word.

Meditation with peace of mind, Pu Guang will linger in the mountains 108 times a day, and they may become two more Zen masters who have attained enlightenment here between ancient and modern times. Witness one's own nature.

Little do they know that their different practices have begun. All beings have been praised by them.

Puguang saw that under this ancient cave, there was no road leading to the foot of the mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist and dense forests.

"If you can't find such a good practice place, it would be a pity for future practitioners to find it." A special thought once again came to your mind.

The two of them immediately did it and picked up the hoe and started smashing the stones. They actually wanted to smash stones, flatten the hilltops, and build temples here.

This has become their method of practice while meditating. The two monks were hoeing stones while chanting the Buddha's name, and they felt joyful. This seems to have become their way to spread the Dharma. It is the way they think they are.

The two monks have been struggling all the way and have long passed the age of 60. At this moment, they have already spread the Dharma and benefited sentient beings in future generations.

This hoe made a flat ground, and the soil under the hoe was built, and the main hall, Yuantong Hall, kitchen, and 60 earthen houses were built.

With a temple kitchen, you should have a Buddha statue. Pu Guang went to the foot of the mountain without saying a word. He was over 60 and could see people. The villagers at the foot of the mountain could only smell the sandalwood wafting away, and were delighted. A monk, wearing a sandalwood scent, came immediately with a basket on his back. Everyone sighed that there were old monks building temples on this mountain.

Some good soil in the fields are willing to offer. Pu Guang just carried the mountain in baskets.

has no pattern, no template.Pu Guang then closed his eyes:

"The Bodhisattva statue appeared in front of him, so I pinched the soil to the imagination in front of him, and the bottle came out, so I followed the gourd according to his appearance."

Pu Guang just thought in his heart and completed the interior Buddha statue decoration project bit by bit.

These self-made Buddha statues are all solemn and great, and they are like Buddhas in person.

With the action of building temple statues, the old monk gradually became more and more enthusiastic with the villagers at the foot of the mountain.

"There is a temple on the mountain, and there are two old monks in the temple. They build temples and practice. The Shurangama Mantra 108 times a day, and only eat leaves and bark." The extraordinary actions of the old monk Puguang spread, which made the old lay Buddhists in Xi'an willing to convert.

Historical layman gave advice: "Old monk, you can't just eat leaves and bark. You can beg for alms from the villagers. The temple can be properly built."

Puguang's actions, one word of truth tells the whole character.

One day, Monk Puguang took a 15 cents bus fare to Xi'an to buy incense and candles. Unexpectedly, Monk Puguang was not willing to spend the 15 cents fare. He hiked all the way, chanting the Shurangama Mantra while walking. When I arrived in Xi'an, I picked up some roadside things to satisfy my hunger. It was late the next night when I returned to Guanyin Ancient Cave.

"The villagers work at sunrise, and they have to work until the stars come out. On this day, they earn less than 5 cents and there is not enough food at home. How can I beg for alms with them again?"

In a blink of an eye, it was year after year again, and more and more people knew about the old monks. At this time, the country's economy gradually improved. People's support has also begun to increase. People are willing to offer to the Guang. It has been decades since the old monk is 104 years old.

However, the old monk was still wearing a simple and broken patchwork garment. This patchwork garment can be seen wearing it for 100 years. However, the bark and leaves were replaced with cabbage tofu, which was his favorite meal, just this cabbage tofu.

In his life, he didn't know why the meat tasted, or even why the leeks and eggs tasted. As the times change, the old monks don’t know the appearance of modern society. When I saw storytelling , I suddenly saw the old monk looking surprised. He even took the content of the storytelling literal, kind and innocent, like a child.

People curiously asked him why your body smells good and why you can eat cabbage and tofu so strong. 100 years old, like a child.

He is just a childish face, with a few words: If you only think about practicing your own mind 108 times a day and you can do it in your life.

two old monks are still committed to practicing and building a stronger temple just to have a pure land in the future.

This is the innocent and compassionate lifestyle of the old monk Puguang.
