The old monks looked at each other in surprise and confusion and whispered. The crane boned and bearded old man, Khenpo Thousand Waves, stroked his beard and said calmly to the crowd,"" He didn't pass the trial. " Everyone stopped talking and looked back at their elder.
Thousand Waves looked at the determined and calm gaze of Eos Kavso and continued,"" But Umapala did not deny him. Others say that we are the wise men of the snowy mountains, but in fact, we are just foolish children. All of our knowledge comes from Umapadi, and all of our actions follow her instructions. If she cannot determine whether this young man is good or evil today, we have no right to judge him.』
Everyone returned to the meeting hall. Khenpo Chiba wrote a letter in Saqete on the writing desk, tied it with a fine hemp rope, and handed it to Eos. He said to him,"" Most of the gods live at the southern foot of the snowy mountains. There are many saints there, and they don't have as many rules as us stubborn old men who live in Himavat. "I'm sorry that we can't let you enter the Sutra Library, but I praise your spirit of sacrificing your life for the sake of true knowledge. Although the 'righteousness' you pursue is not within the scope of 'righteousness' that our Snow Mountain Goddess has stipulated, I also believe that it must be a spirit of 'righteousness'. I'm sorry that our knowledge is very limited. Please give my letter of recommendation to Chan Talaqida, a cultivator who lives in the south of Naranda. He was a friend of mine when I was young. I went up the Snow Mountains, but he chose to stay in the south. He would learn more profound and mysterious knowledge from the local saints. You go from Nianqu to Nyalam, pass through the mountain pass of Tajuegabu, and arrive at Rajagarila of Magadha. I believe he must have the answer you want to know.』
Khenpo Qianpo, everyone, and Ada stood on the corridor and bowed to bid farewell to Ios.
Eos returned the greeting and went down the mountain.
From the vast mountains ruled by the cold frost, to a canyon surrounded by camphor trees, a verdant forest, a clear stream, and a waterfall that seemed to pour down from the sky. Clouds and mist rose from all directions, enveloping the people on the mountainside, making everything look more like a legendary dream country. Eos was not used to this change.
Most of the people who lived here were naked and had dark skin. Whether they were talking or being in a daze for a long time, they liked to sit cross-legged on the ground. As for the legendary Gray Leaf and Gama Monkey, they would jump up and down on these people. When he crossed the border of the Peacock Kingdom, the sweltering weather was replaced by thunderstorms. The heavy rain continued day and night, and the road ahead became more and more difficult. The ox cart and carriage often got stuck in the mud, delaying him a lot of time.
When the rain was the heaviest, the coachman decided to take shelter under a tree in Muzaffarpur, but the rain did not seem to ease up, so they went to the town to rest for the night.
A few days later, not long after crossing the river, he finally arrived at the Sangha Ramma Abode in Naranda, where Luo Yue Jie Li Ya was settling down. In the center of the abode was a grayish-white stupa, surrounded by the garden of Anmolo. In the quiet forest, there were hibiscus, tubers, and myrtle flowers. There was a path leading to the monks 'residence in the garden, and beside the path was gurgling water. Hundreds of cultivators were cultivating in the garden. Some were alone in the forest, some were gathered under the pavilion, and some were meditating with their eyes closed in the caves of the mountain rocks.
Eos Kafso was infected by this serene solemnity. He asked a young monk if he knew of the Zen Tala Qida, and the young monk led him to the meditation area. This slightly plump and simple-looking cultivator was not in the center, but was talking to a few other monks.
Eos handed over the recommendation letter.
" You have come from the distant lands of Seljugu just to find Akashic? the Walker asked in Avestan.
"Yes.』
Chan Taluo Qida put down the letter and kindly said," Hmm, you've come to the right place. Akashic's 'library' is here, and we read the knowledge inside every day.』
Is it in this abode?』
'No, it's here. The monk pointed at Eos 'chest." In your' heart'.』
Eos was completely shocked and speechless.
" We are open to all who desire the truth. You will enter Akashic. He smiled and looked into Eos 'eyes." But you need a Grand Elder.』
From the further south of Mount Balamolaqili, Master Gahajuna came out of meditation. From the outside, he should be old, but in fact, he was more than a hundred years old. Chantalaqida brought Eos to him.
'Teacher. "This young man has come over mountains, deserts, and snowy mountains in the north in search of Akasha's records. He should have good roots. Please teach him the profound and the knowledge of Tala Yoga."』
Gahe Zhune stood up from his seat and sized up the outsider." Breathe.』
'What?』
The old man gestured for the young man to sit down cross-legged.
" Stop your meaningless thoughts, stop and observe, observe your breathing. Just breathe, inhale... exhale..." The old man demonstrated to the young man.
Where is Akashic? Don't fool me anymore. I know how to breathe.』
" No, you don't know. You think you know because you were born to breathe, but now I want you to know how you do it. Follow me, inhale…exhale…"
Countless fireflies were flying in the darkness around the eyes,'Oh no, they're not fireflies. 'thought his eyes,' they are spots of light brighter on the inside than on the outside. " For a moment, it was unclear whether the light spot was flying or whether it was flying by itself.
The spots where the light spots gathered were dense and thin. In some places, some of the light spots were pitifully alone, while some were in groups, forming cute little spirals. Some were even close together, decorating the darkness with clouds, mountains, and flowing water.
Suddenly, a light spot seemed to be very interested in the eyes and flew directly in front of it.
At that moment, it was as if it was holding its hand and flying with it, swimming in the ocean of light.
Eos Kavso woke up from his dream. He felt that he had a very long dream, so long that he had already forgotten who he was, what he was now, and where he was.
He dreamed that he was a lonely beast walking in a desolate rocky forest.
There were all kinds of strange flowers and plants around him, and he was sure that the colors were beyond the description of the rainbow and could not be named.
It walked alone for a long time until it saw an indescribably huge leaf. It was enchanting but dignified, bringing him fear and comfort at the same time. He fused with the leaf and turned into liquid. He felt the pain and tearing before death, but he also felt the happiness and peace of life. After that, he could not remember.
Until now.
He was sitting under a big tree. The heavy rain hit the branches and leaves violently. The coachman moved the cow over to shelter from the rain.
Where is this? he asked the coachman.
'It's Muzaffarpur. The rain is too heavy. We may have to wait for a few days. 'said the coachman.
Shouldn't we have arrived at Ammara's abode already? 'he asked.
" What are you talking about, Master? Aren't you going to Galanto Bamboo Garden? It would take a few days to cross the Ganges.』
What river? " Eos stared at the confused coachman in the rain in surprise. He was sure that he had never heard of the name of the bamboo garden or the name of the river, the Ganges, but he couldn't remember what was wrong.
