golden escape

Knowing that Fang You discovered the relic of the Buddha's real body, Liu Yuanshan's shock was only temporary, while some tourists passing by were really stunned and looked like they had seen a ghost.

The expressions on the faces of these people are completely unbelievable. The scene in front of them would never have occurred to them. These monks who came to the pilgrimage would suddenly clasp their hands at two ordinary people. Bye.

If these two were both monks, they wouldn't be so surprised. The problem is that these two don't look like monks at all, which makes them feel a little weird while being shocked.

The local people in Yangon, Myanmar also feel this way. Unlike the tourists next to them, they don’t know who the old monk in the front is. The older monk in the front is Danbang, whom the Burmese respect. The master, who has done countless good deeds in his life, is deeply respected and loved by the Burmese people.

Master Danbang bowed to two ordinary people with his head and hands together, which also made them very shocked and puzzled.

Except for the elders of the country and Buddhist monks of the same generation, who can make Master Danbang do this, others are not qualified at all. Just like the monks next to him greeted Master Danbang, Master Danbang only nodded slightly.

Although Fang You supported him with his hands, Master Danbang still clasped his hands together and bowed softly, "Mr. Fang, this is the only way we can express our gratitude to you. The relic of the Buddha's real body belongs to all Buddhist disciples in the world. It is our honor to be able to look at the rare body relics left by the Buddha, and this honor is brought by Mr. Fang, so Mr. Fang, you have given us more opportunities to look at the relics of the Buddha and be able to understand the body of the Buddha. Dharma left in the bone, we thank you, as it should be.”

Fang You nodded and smiled slightly, "Master Danbang, just like what I said when I handed over the relic to Master Huijie, the body relic left by the Buddha is a sacred object, and if it is placed in my hands, no one will It will only make it dusty and will not bring any contribution to society, but handing it over to Buddhism and accepting the worship of all people is the best destination for relics. As you just said, this is what it should be .”

"Haha, it's a good one. When I went to Huaxia last time to exchange Buddhism with Master Huijie, he once said that Mr. Fang, you have a predestined relationship with the Buddha. Looking at it today, it is true. Mr. Fang, since you have a predestined relationship with the Buddha, Today is the day of pilgrimage, and the eight hairs left by the Buddha will be invited out to accept the worship of all people, Mr. Fang, why don't you follow us and pay tribute to the hair left by the Buddha, how about it." Master Danbang laughed loudly, and then asked Fang You sent out an invitation.

If the Buddha's relic is taken into Fang You's hands and travels around the world, his reputation will be much greater than it is now, and he can hand it over to Buddhism without hesitation. This kind of courage and heart is worthy of respect.

Master Danbang also felt that when he and the monks worshiped Fang You, the middle-aged man next to him looked shocked, but Fang You still looked normal. This kind of concentration is not a peaceful mind. People who are absolutely unable to possess.

"Master Danbang, it is my honor to be able to look at the hair left by the Buddha. To tell you the truth, I just wanted to do so." Fang You said with a slight smile, and did not mention that the monk stopped them.

Master Danbang showed a smile on his face, "So, Mr. Fang please."

"Master Danbang, please." Fang You smiled and said to Master Danbang with his hands clasped together.

Afterwards, Fang You and Liu Yuanshan followed Master Danbang and headed towards the Shwedagon Pagoda. When passing by the gatekeeper monks, Fang You could feel the gratitude in the eyes of those monks, and he nodded with a smile.

Liu Yuanshan's heart was also full of excitement, following Fang You, he lacked everything, except for miracles, why did he think about entering the Shwedagon Pagoda to see the Buddha's hair, but now he entered with Master Danbang , and around them, the respect in the eyes of many monks gave him an unspeakable sense of excitement.

At this time, except for some tourists in the Shwedagon Pagoda, most of them are monks wearing various Buddhist costumes. Their hands are folded together, and their faces are devoutly heading towards the holy place in their hearts.

Fang You looked at the Shwedagon Pagoda which was close at hand, and could feel a majestic aura even more. At this time, under the breeze blowing, countless gold and silver bells on the eaves of the Shwedagon Pagoda began to sway, sending out a pleasant and peaceful sound. sound.

On top of the Shwedagon Pagoda, besides the majestic shock, Fang You felt the peace of mind. This pagoda is pasted with a lot of gold and there are many precious stones, but they did not let him feel To the slightest breath about interests, there is only a strong Buddhist breath.

As for the Heshi Stupa in the scenic area of ​​Famen Temple, they say that the pagoda is not a tower, and that the palace is not a palace. It is really a four-dimensional object distorted by interests. Some officials are proud of it, saying that the Heshi Stupa cost 50 yuan. 50 million is the most noble and costly pagoda in the world, and [-] billion is just the ugliest building. I am afraid that in secret, I don’t know how many foreign Buddhist institutions are laughing at this Shesh stupa.

This Shwedagon Pagoda is majestic and magnificent, covered with all kinds of gold and precious stones, its total value is only a few hundred million RMB, but there is a huge gap with the Heshi Stupa.

The resplendent Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Myanmar, together with the Borobudur Tower in Indonesia and Angkor Wat in Cambodia, is known as a treasure of oriental art. It is a world-renowned pagoda and a symbol of Myanmar. Buddhist holy place.

As for the Heshi stupa, which cost 50 billion yuan, it is only known to the world because it stores the Buddha's real body finger bone relics. Not to mention the symbol of the entire China, let alone the Buddhist holy place for all monks in the entire China, even the monks in Famen Temple , will not think that the Heshi stupa is their sacred place for Buddha.

"Mr. Fang, I still don't know why you came to Myanmar. I have the opportunity to thank you in person." Master Danbang asked slowly while walking towards the Shwedagon Pagoda.

Fang You smiled, "Master Danbang, as you know, I have some jewelry companies in Huaxia, and there is also an auction house. Two days later, it happened to be the opening time of the Burmese Jadeite Fair, so I came to participate in the fair." Disk, to get some emeralds, so that the company can continue to develop."

"Oh, so that's the case. I heard that after Mr. Fang discovered the relic, he also established the Longlin Foundation. All donated funds and materials will be used for charity. I respect this very much. We Buddhist monks pay attention to daily activities. One kindness, but Mr. Fang's charitable foundation is a great kindness." Master Danbang said with respect.

Not only because of the Longlin Foundation, but also when I exchanged Buddhism with Master Huijie, I also learned that Fang You made great efforts to put the Buddha's relic into the ancient pagoda. Otherwise, this precious relic The relics of the Buddha's finger bones should also be placed in that nondescript stupa.

Unknowingly, this made him have great respect for Fang You, and his relationship with Buddha is really not just lip service.

"Master Danbang, if people live in this world, if they don't do something, even if they earn more money, what's the use of it? Before seeing the poor lives of those who need help, I have no ability, but I have the ability , these things must be done, not for peace of mind, not for fame, but just what is in the heart, so I do it, sometimes, there is no reason to do some things at all." Fang You smiled lightly, Said lightly.

Master Danbang nodded, "It's just what I thought in my heart, so I did it, Fang Xiaoyou, your realm is beyond the reach of some others." Most of the things about Fang You in the past were hearsay. In other words, his heart is truly full of respect for it.

"Hehe, Master Danbang, this is not a matter of realm. People are sometimes selfish, and I am no exception. But when I do things, I don't seek merit, but a clear conscience." Fang You said calmly.

"With a clear conscience, Fang Xiaoyou, I understand, let's go, enter the pagoda together with me, and look at the eight hairs left by the Buddha." Master Danbang seemed to have realized something, and then walked slowly to the gate of the golden pagoda, facing Fang You Said.

Master Danbang slowly took off his shoes outside the pagoda gate, smiled at the other party and said, "Fang Xiaoyou, please take off your shoes and enter the pagoda barefoot. This is a way for us to pay respect to the Buddha."

Fang You nodded and took off his shoes. Before, Liu Yuanshan had told him that all people who entered the pagoda must enter barefoot, even the head of state, otherwise, they would be regarded as disrespectful to the Buddha. Disrespectful.

The many rules did not make Fang You feel any annoyance. On the contrary, he felt more peaceful in his heart, just because this is a real Buddhist holy place, and his every move is determined by respecting the Buddha.

Entering the pagoda barefoot, you can feel the majesty of the Shwedagon Pagoda even more. There are several Buddha statues enshrined in the pagoda. They are not as golden as you usually see, just like gold, but carved out of jade. In its simplicity, it has the calming effect of jade.

Seeing these benevolent Buddha statues, Fang You smiled slightly, put his hands together, and bowed to these Buddha statues. Master Danbang couldn't help but smiled when he saw Fang You making such an action. At this time, his eyes suddenly looked at Fang You It stayed on Fang You's hand, and there was a string of Buddhist beads on his wrist, and he could feel the strong Buddhist aura on it without hindrance.

"Fang Xiaoyou, the Buddhist beads in your hand are full of Buddha spirit. I don't know where they come from. Can you let me take a closer look." Master Danbang couldn't help asking.

Fang You smiled slightly, without saying a word, but rolled up his sleeves, revealing the Buddhist bead bracelet on his wrist.
