Why can Jigong drink wine and eat meat to achieve true Buddhahood?

In our impression, monks, especially high-ranking monks, strictly abide by the rules and precepts, not to mention drinking wine and eating meat, even killing a little ant is unbearable, but there are also outliers in the monk world, and this outlier is Jigong.

Unlike many monks, Jigong can almost be said to be a mudslide in the monk world, in addition to not being lustful and not smoking, the rest of the wine and meat are almost all stained, often see him with a duck in his left hand, a chicken in his right hand to eat, and he eats happily.

Many ascetic monks are thinking, "Can you still become a Buddha like you?" As a result, Jigong really cultivated into a true Buddha, but other monks turned into ashes in the tempering of the years, why is this?

Why can a monk who eats wine and meat become a Buddha? Let's look at his nickname "Jigong", these two words are not called in vain, nor did he come up with his own, but were given to him by the people of the people, just from the literal meaning is very revealing.

Ji Gong Ji Gong, there is a great meaning of helping the world for the public, because he has traveled all over the world, is accustomed to seeing the warmth and coldness of the world, and also helped a lot of people in need of help, everyone gave him this nickname, and the monks who practice penance in the temple can only practice small deeds, small Buddhism, naturally not as good as him.

He drinks wine and eats meat, but the Buddha has a saying: "Wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha sits in his heart" This is not a joke, this is a truth, others don't understand, he understands. Therefore, when others are still holding back the desire of their tongues, he has already reached another realm, and it is not the same.

Xiu Yuan was subtly influenced by his family and was very interested in Buddhism. At the age of 29, he left his hometown Tiantai and went to Hangzhou Lingyin Temple to become a monk, and his Dharma name was Daoji. After becoming a monk, the cultivation changed the norm and became crazy.

Although he is a monk, he does not abide by any rules and precepts, does not taboo eating meat and drinking alcohol, and often shuttles among the willows in the fireworks alley.

The other monks were very disgusted with his behavior and begged to be expelled from the temple. However, the presiding officer of Lingyin Temple did not think so, but said that the rules and precepts were set up for ordinary people, so how could they be generalized. Since then, no one has dared to say that Ji Dian is not.

The so-called cultivation of Buddha and goodness is not only to cultivate oneself, but also to pass on this kindness to others, which is probably the essence of cultivating a true Buddha. But there are millions of monks in the world, but few can see through it. Most people can only save themselves, not others, and this is the crux of the problem.

Although he drank wine and ate meat, the Buddha remained in his heart forever, and everything he did was a good thing.

I believe that the friends who like to watch "Living Buddha Jigong" like the protagonist Dao Ji, he is also respected by the people as the living Buddha Jigong, Ji Gong was originally a dragon descending Arhat in the sky, in order to surrender and defect Dapeng came to the world, after being awakened to Lingyin Temple to become a monk, many friends are very puzzled, why Daoji became a monk, can still drink wine and eat meat, how can people who believe in Buddhism eat meat?

This is related to his background: Daoji was born in the Li family, but because he became a monk on the night of his wedding, he went crazy to Lingyin Temple to become a monk, causing his wife Rouge to commit suicide by jumping off a cliff, and the family property was also embezzled, which made him feel guilty and painful with his benevolence, so he was always crazy, eating meat and drinking wine as a confession, covering up the pain in his heart.

Dao Ji drinks wine and eats meat is also compared with others, Guang Liang, who is also a monk, greedy for money, likes to squeeze the little monk, full of Buddha's will, does not drink and does not eat meat, but he exposes his greed, which is why Guang Liang was demoted to the reason why he suffered this catastrophe, Dao Ji is kind and charitable, does good deeds and accumulates virtues, often travels to the market, saves the dead and helps the weak, and punishes the evil, compared with Guangliang and many other people in the world who are crazy and benevolent, his ideological realm and moral practice are beyond ordinary people, Doing things is not bound by the precepts, which is also a reflection of his nature.

Jigong is always dressed in tatters, walks crazy, speaks with a mouthful of alcohol, often pins a wine jug to his waist, unlike ordinary monks, he also has a Buddha in his heart, but he is free and free, not bound by the world, he is kind and charitable, helps many poor people, punishes evil and promotes good, and does things freely and freely is also in line with the character of the human ranger.

As long as there is a Buddha in his heart, then even if he drinks wine and eats meat, it will not affect his heart to become a Buddha.

In "Living Buddha Jigong", Dao Ji is a particularly greedy person who likes good wine and food, which has something to do with his character.

Because Dao Ji wants to cover up his pain by drinking wine and eating meat, he has to anesthetize himself with alcohol so that he can not want these painful memories.

Because when he was a monk, his wife committed suicide, and his family property was also encroached upon by others, so he used meat and wine to hide his inner pain.

Wine and meat through the intestines, the Buddha left in his heart, eating meat and drinking wine does not affect, as long as you are kind in your heart, compassion, then the Buddha is at ease in her heart, she has her own pursuit.

Because it is enough to have faith in your heart. Those superficial rules are not so important, but the heart is the key.

3. Eating meat to attract the world In fact, Jigong eats meat just to prepare for the introduction of the world, and the Buddha is very heartbroken when he sees everyone becoming a meal on a plate. So Jigong had mercy, and although he ate meat, he vomited out living creatures. And Jigong has no intestines, so his wine and meat through his intestines have actually turned into nectar.

This is also the reason why Jigong wants to eat wine and meat.

Personally, I think that the central idea of Buddhism is to be good and universalize sentient beings, not to drink wine and eat meat, although Jigong he drinks wine and eats meat, but he always holds a good heart, does good deeds, and takes the purification of sentient beings as his own responsibility, just ask, how can such a person be abandoned by the Buddha?

Because Jigong has a Buddha in his heart, he is able to help others in the end.

Because Jigong is wine and meat through the intestines, the Buddha left in his heart. Therefore, he is still very kind in his heart, even if he drinks wine and eats meat, he can also become a Buddha.

Because Jigong has often traveled all over the world, he has seen the warmth and indifference of the world, and he has also helped many people, so he will become a true Buddha.

Wine and meat have passed through the intestines.

The Buddha left in his heart.
