The story of samantabhadra bodhisattva
Bodhisattva samantabhadra, with endless wishes, is busy in the dust brake and educates all sentient beings along with the fate. According to historical records, Goodall, a monk in China, is the incarnation of Pu Xian. One day, Fenggan Zen master of the Buddhist Temple in Tiantai Mountain passed Chicheng Road, and when he heard a child crying in the grass, he went to check it out. When I saw a child about ten years old, I asked his name and replied,' I have no last name and no first name.' Fenggan Zen master was helpless and took him back to Xiaoguo Temple to be a tea boy in the warehouse. Because it was picked up, the name was picked up.
Because of his clever picking, he was promoted to zhaitang incense lamp three years later, responsible for eating and other chores. One day, when no one was around, he actually sat opposite the icon and ate, and also reprimanded the icon for its small fruit and burnt flower buds. Seeing this, Zen Master Zhi Ku accused him of disrespecting the icon. Maybe he was mentally ill, so he quit his job in the incense burner and let him go to the kitchen to wash dishes. He often puts extra meals in bamboo tubes and gives them to his good friend Han.
On one occasion, birds pecked at flowers and fruits in the temple. They picked them up and beat the mountain gods enshrined in the temple with sticks, accusing them of failing to protect Galand and perform their duties well, so they were worshipped by Samoans in vain. That night, all the monks in the temple dreamed that the mountain god said,' Pick me up and scold me.' Master paranormal visited the mountain statue. When he saw that the mountain statue was beaten with a stick, he realized that its origin was unusual.
