Chapter Forty-Seven: The Human Body Is Rare, The Dharma Is Unpleasant

Qing Li came out of the Taoist temple of the Master of the Fruit Sect and set out with Lu Li to learn about the undead.

"Lu Li, can you tell me about the business you are taking on in detail?" Lu Li drove the car, and Qing Li sat in the passenger seat next to Lu Li.

"This is the thing. The owner of this family is a Vietnamese arms dealer named Li Peng. He is a famous filial son. He helped his father manage his industry since he was a child. Now he is in his early thirties and is the eldest son of the Li family. Since Li Peng became an adult, his father has handed over the family industry to him, and the old man began to enjoy his life at home.

Li Peng has a younger brother named Li Qi, who is 26 years old. After getting married, he is not doing his job all day long. He quarreled with his father every day. When he is anxious, he even punched and kicked his father.

Not long ago, Li Peng went out to discuss business and was not at home. Li Qi had a big fight with the old man. The old man was furious and died without getting up in one breath. He was only 56 years old!

Li Peng came back and taught Li Qi a lesson. He began to prepare for the funeral for the old man. Because the old man was angry and had a revenge when he was alive, Li Peng knew that the old man would not have a good end, so he asked us to save him and not to fall into hell." Lu Li explained the whole story clearly.

"How many days have you been dead now? Is the body still there?" Qing Li continued to ask Lu Li.

"The death was exactly three days, and the body was in the funeral home. I dare not be buried without being liberated." Lu Li replied.

"We are going to the funeral home now, are we?" Qingli asked Lu Li again.

"Yes, I'll take you to see now. We only need to be buried in the Refining Zhuohui, and we cannot save the undead." Lu Li looked at Qing Li helplessly.

"Let's deal with this matter together. Don't worry. You are buried and we will be able to save you. But after all, death is a very critical stage. Thoughts and actions have a decisive impact on the whereabouts of the deceased. The old man was only 56 years old when he left, and he was pissed to death by his children. I don't know what the situation is in the bardo body now!" Qing Li was a little worried.

"Qingli, after hearing what you said, you are very clear about what happens after a person dies. Can you tell me?" Lu Li was curious and asked Qingli to explain to him in detail where the person will go after a person dies.

"Okay, I will tell you what I know. In fact, death is not the end of life, but a turning point in this life and the future. All sentient beings, from the beginning, have been in the six realms of reincarnation, namely the heavenly way, the Asura way, the human way, the evil ghost way, the animal way, and the hell, are in the continuation of life and death, reincarnation, and reincarnation.

In fact, all the memories of the previous life have always been in our memories, and have never retreated, nor will they retreat. In the future, we cannot remember the previous life because our eyes, ears, nose, tongue, body and mind are constantly catching up with each other, and are blinded by everything in the world, and have temporarily lost their memory. Through meditation, our minds are empty, and the thoughts of all past lives will naturally slowly emerge. Unfortunately, people don’t know it.

Let’s talk about the death of a person and the qi is dead. Since the qi is dead, the spiritual consciousness will break away from the body. The period after the spiritual consciousness leaves the body and before the reincarnation is the bardo body, which is called “the previous yin has been eliminated, the back yin has not arrived, and the bardo appears.”

The former Yin has already withered means that the life span has ended during this period and the latter Yin has not reached it means that it has not yet been reincarnated.

Generally speaking, people have a bardo body after death, but there are no great good and evil people. One person actively does good deeds and practices seriously before his life, and has deep faith in the Three Jewels and Pure Land. After dying of energy, he does not need to go through the bardo stage. He will be reborn in the Pure Land in an instant, and those who ascend to heaven and go to hell are equally as fast as this.

After the death of a person, the bardo body will linger next to the coffin or sickbed to see his physical body.

At this time, good and evil are still being judged, and karma has not been formed, so it is extremely free. Because it is extremely light and sharp, its awareness is seven times that of life. Some even have other minds, which can read the consciousness of others, be free in the air, come and go, pass through mountains and seas, without any obstacles.

The bardo body is fed with fragrance. Many family members of the people generally offer fruits and wine to the undead. In fact, the undead cannot enjoy it at all. This is just pretending to be a living person.

The lifespan of the bardo body is a cycle every seven days, that is, the bardo body may be reincarnated once every seven days. These seven days are not certain, but are related to their own karma. Some people can be reincarnated after three or four days of death, while others have not reincarnated for a month. The lifespan of the bardo body is generally forty-nine days. If those who have not reincarnated within these forty-nine days will turn into ghosts, they already belong to the ghost realm and have their own fixed life form. Therefore, it is very important to save the bardo body in these forty-nine days." Qing Li described the bardo body when the bardo body is not judged after death.

"Qingli, you know so much. It seems that I have to listen to you more. The bardo body you just said can only be eaten with incense. Can you tell me in detail?" Lu Li was very excited and wanted to hear more.

"Lu Li, if you want to listen to the content of the fragrance, let's talk about the diet of the bardo body!

In the desire realm, sentient beings who eat subtle fragrances are called "Gandharva". The mind is born with fragrances and nourishes the body (because they are conscious, they still need to eat). Generally, the descendants burn incense when worshiping their ancestors, which is the purpose of this.

From ancient times to the present, people worship gods and burn incense, which is because ghosts and gods are full of energy, and the fragrance is used to eat.

Of course, after the parents died, they burned incense and sacrificed their sacrifices. What they ate was not the food they offered, but the food offering and the smell of incense.

There are also levels of burning incense. Those who have no blessings eat bad incense. Even if the good incense appears, they will not be blessed to receive them. Those who have deep blessings eat good incense.

If you burn the good fragrance, you can feel the good spirits to eat it, and if you light the evil fragrance, you can feel the ghosts coming." As soon as Qing Li finished speaking, Lu Li gave Qing Li a thumbs up.

"Sister Qingli, you feel very different when you come back this time. You used to be a small foundation building, but now you have to look like you have formed a golden elixir! Look at how wide your knowledge is now! The storm is good!" Lu Li was a little surprised to see Qingli's changes. He had made such progress in just half a month.

"This trip made me understand one thing: it is rare to have a human body and it is hard to hear Buddhism!" Qing Li sighed a little.

"From the future, Lu Li will follow Sister Qingli, and my sister will protect me from now on!" Lu Li showed a naughty look again.

"Lu Li, we will practice together in the future and help each other, haha!" Qing Li was much happier when he saw Lu Li's naughty look.

"Sister Qingli, have you figured out how to save this old man?" Lu Li thought that he was about to go to the funeral home before, so he asked Qingli's plan first, and he had a good idea.

"The bardo body has strong karma and fast speed, and has the fastest karma. It has concentration, supernatural power, willpower, vows and power. Within forty-nine days, once the bardo body decides to be reincarnated, these five forces will disappear immediately, and the deceased will follow the thoughts. Whatever thoughts arise is where to be reincarnated. What we need to do is to help the undead's minds be pure, that is, reincarnate in the lotus.

When encountering good fate, you will be born in a good way; when encountering bad fate, you will fall into an evil way.

So we first arrange the old master's family members to set up a great offering, offer the Three Jewels, rely on the power of the Three Jewels to provide spiritual consciousness to help the undead be reborn in the good path, and then ask the teacher to transfer the scriptures spoken by the Buddha, hold the name of reciting the Buddha's name, and rely on the power of the Buddha to help the deceased escape from the evil paths." Qingli confidently planned things.

"Okay, Sister Qingli, we will do what you said! We're here!" Lu Li stopped the car and took Qingli into the funeral home.
