Chapter 26 If Buddha doesn’t save me, I will save myself!
Wang Yuanjing had some trouble with this body, so he did not take public transportation but chose to walk.

Keep your feet on the ground and measure the world with your feet.

From the perspective of space, the universe has no boundaries; from the perspective of time, the universe has no beginning and no end.

Buddhism has a very grand worldview.

At the microscopic level, "a grain of sand is a world, a flower and a leaf is a Tathagata". Just by studying a flower, the Buddha can understand the truth. The mysteries of the universe are just in this ordinary flower.

It has the same effect as the Taoist saying "Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things". Both are examples of seeing the big from the small and tending to infinity.

On a macro level, there are three thousand great worlds.

The Buddha calls the area illuminated by the sun and the moon a small world. A thousand small worlds make up a middle thousand world, and a thousand middle thousand worlds make up a big thousand world.

Since a great thousand world consists of three kinds of "thousand" worlds: small, medium, and large, three thousand is not the number of a great thousand.

All the universes are in the process of creation, existence, destruction and emptiness, constantly changing and circulating, without a moment of stillness.

This is consistent with the Taoist concept of "all things are one" and "the debate between small and big".

"Red lotus, white lotus root, green lotus leaf, the three religions are one family."

All the great principles in the world lead to the same destination. The enlightened masters of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have actually realized similar principles. This is truly a wonderful world.

But Saha has two meanings.

The first meaning is the world where people live, but this is actually not appropriate.

The real meaning is the spiritual world taught by Buddha.

“I am not a Buddha. If the Buddha doesn’t save me, I will save myself. So what I want to build is the White Bone Saha World that belongs to me alone.”

Wang Yuanjing muttered to himself as he walked on the muddy path.

He practices Buddhism, but does not believe in Buddhism.

Dharma is just a means for him to seek the truth. No matter whether the cat is black or white, the one that can catch the mouse is a good cat.

Whether it is the right way or the wrong way, Buddhism or Taoism, or even the myriad ways in the world...

As long as it does not go against his conscience, Wang Yuanjing thinks the more the better.

If we use a modern way to describe the White Bone World, it is to create a new layer of vision. The first layer is what normal people see, and the second layer is the world where everything is white bones as seen by the practitioners of White Bone Contemplation.

"The noise of the white-bone world is a method to break the ego. The ego is the root of suffering. The ego is the three corpse gods."

The pair of Liberation shoes that he had taken off the dead body had two big holes in them due to excessive wear and tear, so he simply threw them aside.

There is a Yongquan point on the sole of the foot, which is connected to the Foot Shaoyin Kidney Meridian. Because it is adjacent to the ground, it is an important gateway for cold and yin earth energy to invade the human body.

Even if you are an extraordinary person, you cannot protect these two parts. Once the cold air enters your body, you are prone to soreness in your calves, hips, and waist muscles, so it is best to take measures to keep warm.

But as soon as he put on the shoes, Wang Yuanjing felt that his connection with the world became closer, and the speed of constructing the White Bone World became faster.

Every time he took a step forward, behind him was a scene of exposed bones. Not only that, but also the blue sky and white clouds, green trees and moss, mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, snakes, insects, birds and beasts.
They all turned into a pile of white bones.

"It's not enough. The most important thing is missing."

"people!"

Wang Yuanjing said to himself.

Man is the greatest creation between heaven and earth, and he is also a part of it, so his world of bones should not be without human existence.

So he walked from the wilderness to the city.
"Mom, why don't you see that uncle wearing shoes?"

"That's a lunatic, go away!"

The mother dragged her daughter away in a hurry with some disgust.
"Someone come! Help! Someone is killing someone!"

"I didn't hit her at all! I just wanted to help her up!"

The lame old woman hugged the leg of the good man, and the two sides argued fiercely.
"Don't worry, mom. I'm doing fine now!"

"Every meal is filled with meat and fish. I'm gaining weight!"

Young people living on the street sat on the steps beside the road with a forced smile on their faces.
"What? You want me to take care of that old man?" "You're the eldest brother, why don't you go?"

The middle-aged man and his brother on the other end of the phone were shirking their responsibilities over who should take care of their old father.
"Doctor, I don't want to die, save me!"

"Don't worry, we will do our best."

"Wait, who are you! How did you get in? Security, get this lunatic out!"

The seriously ill man grabbed the doctor's hand, his eyes full of desire for life.
Wang Yuanjing was kicked out of the hospital.
"Son, Daddy brought you some eggs from home. You've worked hard at school, so take these to nourish your body."

"Dad! Didn't I tell you not to come? My classmates will look down on me if you do this!"

"."

"Dad is leaving now, don't forget to eat well"

The old father happily walked dozens of miles to visit his son at school, but in order to prevent his son from losing face in front of his classmates, he chose to leave, looking extremely lonely.

Wang Yuanjing is like a bystander, understanding the world in his own way.

There are many different kinds of life and all kinds of beings!

All in sight
This last piece of the puzzle is gradually moving closer to the picture of the world.

His steps seemed a little heavy, and the hunger in his stomach kept reminding him that it was time to eat, but his eyes became brighter.

Wang Yuanjing couldn't quite remember when he set out and how many miles he had walked.
He had spent all the money he had on him long ago. Part of it was used to buy food and water, and the rest was given to those who had nowhere else to turn. After he ran out of food and ammunition, he did not beg, but drank morning dew and chewed grass roots to survive. Except for his relatively clean face, his clothes were tattered and his hair was disheveled, so it's no wonder that people thought he was a madman.

Just when he was struggling whether to continue walking or find something to eat to fill his stomach.
"Give."

A big white bun suddenly appeared in front of me.

Wang Yuanjing looked up in surprise. The man turned out to be a young man, not much older than himself.

He was silent for a while.

"I'm not a beggar."

Because he hadn't communicated with others for a long time, Wang Yuanjing's voice was a little hoarse.

"Consider it your treat."

The young man put his hands behind his head and said nonchalantly.

"If you don't want to eat it, give it back to me. Don't waste it."

Looking at the young man's appearance, Wang Yuanjing's heart suddenly became clear, and the last piece of the puzzle of the world in his mind suddenly fell into place.

It turns out that I was missing!
He shook his head and laughed, his eyes suddenly lit up, then quickly returned to normal. The young man looked at this sloppy man with some surprise.

"Your steamed buns are great. Where did you buy them? Do you have any more?"

Wang Yuanjing took the big white steamed bun and began to eat it in big mouthfuls, as if what he was eating was not a steamed bun but some rare delicacy.

The young man's mouth twitched, and he took out another one from somewhere and handed it over.

"I have some pickles here, do you want some?"

"want!"

After eating one steamed bun after another, Wang Yuanjing burped with satisfaction. He raised his head and asked casually.

"What's your name?"

The young man didn't want to tell the other person his name, and the refusal was on his lips, but for some reason.
"Wang also."

?

Wang Yuanjing slowly typed a question mark.

　I have run out of stock, so it's a bit late today.
