The man demolished the temple and smashed the Buddha, causing the Bodhisattva to appear
In ancient times, there was a village called "Lingyin", the village was surrounded by mountains and rivers, the scenery was beautiful, and the villagers lived a peaceful and peaceful life. However, this peaceful life was shattered by a young man named Li Hao.
Li Hao is a burly and powerful young man, he has an unruly personality and always acts unexpectedly. The villagers all knew that Li Hao had always been dissatisfied with the ancient temple in the village. The ancient temple has a long history and is dedicated to a benevolent Bodhisattva statue, which is a sacred place in the hearts of the villagers. However, Li Hao believed that this ancient temple occupied the village's feng shui treasure and hindered the development of the village, so he made up his mind to demolish the ancient temple.
Early one morning, Li Hao came to the ancient temple with a group of strong helpers, armed with hammers and axes. Ignoring the dissuasion and pleading of the villagers, they began to demolish the temple. For a time, the smoke and dust in the ancient temple were billowing and the Buddha statue was crumbling under the hammer blowing.
That's when the unexpected happened. I saw a golden light shoot out from the Buddha statue and soar into the sky. After the golden light dissipated, a dignified and kind Bodhisattva appeared in front of everyone. She was dressed in a white veil, holding a clean bottle, and her brows revealed endless compassion and wisdom.
Seeing this, the villagers fell to their knees and prayed sincerely. Li Hao and his helpers were stunned, and the tools in their hands fell to the ground. The Bodhisattva looked at Li Hao and said lightly: "Young man, why are you demolishing my temple and smashing my Buddha statue?"
Li Hao froze and replied loudly: "This ancient temple occupies the feng shui treasure of the village and hinders the development of the village. I think that only by demolishing it can the village become more prosperous. ”
The Bodhisattva shook his head slightly and sighed, "You are wrong. This ancient temple is not an obstacle to the development of the village, but a barrier to protect the peace of the village. As a bodhisattva, I have always been here to protect you and bless you with peace and good luck. If you tear down the temple and smash the Buddha statue, you will not only lose my protection, but you will also bring greater calamity. ”
After Li Hao heard this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of remorse in his heart. But he thought of his ambition and was unwilling to give up. So, he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care about this! I just want to demolish the temple! I just want to develop the village!"
The Bodhisattva looked at Li Hao's obsessive appearance and sighed softly. She said slowly: "Since you are so persistent, then I will give you the seat." ”
With that, the Bodhisattva turned into a golden light and disappeared into the air. The Buddha statue in the ancient temple also collapsed in an instant and turned into a pile of rubble. Li Hao and his helpers stared blankly at everything in front of them, and an inexplicable fear surged in their hearts.
However, Li Hao did not give up the plan to demolish the temple because of this. He believed that the Bodhisattva's departure was a sign of weakness, and strengthened his determination to demolish the temple. So, he continued to lead his helpers to tear down temples and clean up the rubble.
Soon after, Li Hao built a tall new temple on the site of the ancient temple. This new temple is imposing and magnificent, far surpassing the original ancient temple. Li Hao proclaimed himself the "new village chief" and announced that the village would usher in unprecedented development under the protection of the new temple.
Although the villagers were curious and in awe of the new temple, they were uneasy about what Li Hao had done. They feared that the new temple would not bless them with peace and good fortune like the old temple, but would bring unknown calamities.
Li Hao, however, scoffed at the villagers' concerns. He firmly believes that his ability and wisdom can lead the village to a better future. So, he began to implement a series of reforms in the village in an attempt to revitalize the village.
However, things did not go as smoothly as Li Hao imagined. Since the construction of the new temple, a series of bizarre and strange things have begun to happen in the village. First, livestock disappeared for no apparent reason, then crops withered and died, and some people even became sick and bedridden. The villagers were horrified and speculated that the new temple had caused bad omen.
Li Hao also began to feel uneasy. He tried to get to the root of the problem, but found nothing. He began to wonder if his decision was correct and whether he had really provoked the Bodhisattva's punishment.
Just then, a mysterious old man appeared in the village. He told the villagers that all this was due to the disaster caused by Li Hao's demolition of the ancient temple and the destruction of the Buddha statue. Only by rebuilding the ancient temple and restoring the Bodhisattva's throne can the Bodhisattva's anger be calmed and the peace of the village restored.
After hearing this, the villagers agreed, and they began to prepare for the reconstruction of the ancient temple. Li Hao was also reflecting on his mistakes, he felt deeply guilty and regretful, and decided to fully support the action of rebuilding the ancient temple.
So, with the joint efforts of the villagers, the ancient temple was rebuilt. The Buddha statue of the Bodhisattva once again stands in the temple, radiating a benevolent light. The village has also regained its former tranquility and serenity.
And Li Hao also learned a lesson from this incident, and he understood the importance of reverence for nature and respect for tradition. Instead of blindly pursuing development, he began to focus on the well-being of the villagers and the long-term development of the village.
After experiencing some twists and turns, Li Hao finally understood his mistake and felt the compassion and strength of the Bodhisattva. He led the villagers to rebuild the ancient temple, restore the Bodhisattva's honor, and restore the relationship between himself and the villagers.
However, rebuilding an ancient temple is not an overnight task. The villagers raised funds, transported materials, and hired craftsmen to carve Buddha statues, each of which required the joint efforts of everyone. In this process, Li Hao has always led by example and done it himself, and his changes and dedication have made the villagers see his sincerity and determination.
After months of hard work, the ancient temple was finally rebuilt. The new Buddha statue is solemn and shining, as if the Bodhisattva has really descended into the village, guarding every inch of land and every villager here.
On the day the reconstruction was completed, a grand celebration was held in the village. The villagers gathered together to sing and dance to thank the Bodhisattva for his protection and to celebrate the rebirth of the ancient temple. Li Hao stood in the crowd, looking at the villagers laughing and laughing, his heart was full of satisfaction and relief.
Since then, Li Hao has become more humble and cautious. He no longer blindly pursues superficial prosperity and development, but pays more attention to the actual needs and quality of life of the villagers. He worked hard to learn about agriculture, introduce new varieties, and improve farming methods, which led to a significant increase in agricultural production in the village.
At the same time, he also pays attention to the cultural construction and education popularization of the village. He invited Mr. Teacher and opened a school in the village so that the children could receive an education and broaden their horizons. He also organized the villagers to learn traditional handicrafts and folk arts, which made the cultural atmosphere of the village even stronger.
Under the leadership of Li Hao, Lingyin Village gradually radiated new vitality and vitality. The living standards of the villagers have improved, and the environment of the village has become more beautiful and livable. The ancient temple has also become a sacred place in the hearts of the villagers, and every festival or important moment, everyone will come to pray and worship to thank the Bodhisattva for his gifts and blessings.
As the years passed, Li Hao's story was also passed down in the village. He has grown from an unruly young man to a responsible and responsible village chief. His experience tells people that respecting tradition, respecting nature, and paying attention to humanistic care are the right way for the development of the village.
The Bodhisattva's appearance and teachings also made the villagers deeply understand the power of faith and the wisdom of compassion. They understand that only by being in awe, remaining kind, and working hard can they win a better future.
Time flies, and under the leadership of Li Hao and the blessing of the Bodhisattva, Lingyin Village has gone through several years of prosperity. Li Hao has also grown from a young and vigorous village chief to a respected elder in the hearts of the villagers. He knew that all this peace and happiness were inseparable from the gift of the Bodhisattva and the joint efforts of the villagers.
However, the calm days did not last forever. With the gradual infiltration of external civilizations, Lingyin Village has also begun to face new challenges and temptations. Some young villagers began to yearn for the prosperity and convenience of the city, hoping to leave the village in pursuit of a better life. They began to question the value of traditional beliefs, and some even proposed demolishing ancient temples and using the land for the construction of modern residential and commercial facilities.
In the face of such changes and challenges, Li Hao is very worried. He knew that once the villagers lost their faith and traditions, the village would lose its soul and cohesion. So, he decided to stand up again and defend the ancient temple and traditional beliefs.
He convened a meeting of the villagers to tell the history and legends of the ancient temple and the Bodhisattva, emphasizing the importance of faith in the village. He also led the villagers on a tour of the ancient temple so that they could experience the compassion and power of the Bodhisattva firsthand. Thanks to Li Hao's efforts, some villagers who had been wavering began to rethink their positions.
However, there are still some who insist on demolishing the ancient temple. They believe that traditional beliefs are outdated and that modernization is the only way out for the development of the village. In the face of such differences and controversies, Li Hao felt very helpless and distressed.
At this moment, the Bodhisattva appeared again. She appeared in the ancient temple with a soft glow on her body. She told the villagers that faith and tradition are the foundation and soul of the village and cannot be given up easily. She also predicted that if the villagers stick to their beliefs and traditions, the village will have a better future.
The Bodhisattva's words left the villagers deeply shocked and in awe. They have said that they will respect and maintain traditional beliefs again and will no longer waver easily. And those who originally insisted on demolishing the ancient temple also changed their position under the inspiration of the Bodhisattva.
The Bodhisattva's appearance and prophecy unite the Lingyin Village again. The villagers began to cherish their traditional beliefs and culture more, and they also worked harder to build and develop the village. They have built schools, hospitals and other public facilities to improve the living conditions of the villagers. They have also developed characteristic handicrafts and agricultural products that attract more and more tourists to come and see and buy.
Under the protection of Li Hao and the Bodhisattva, Lingyin Village has gradually become a place full of vitality and charm. The living standards of the villagers have been continuously improved, and the village has received more honors and praises.
As the years passed, Li Hao eventually grew old, but his spirit and deeds were praised by generations of villagers. And the Bodhisattva's compassion and wisdom have always remained in Lingyin Village, becoming the eternal faith and strength in the hearts of the villagers.
Nowadays, whenever someone comes to Lingyin Village, they are attracted by the tranquility and beauty here. They would walk into the ancient temple and pray and pray to the Bodhisattva. And the Bodhisattva will continue to guard this village and make its tomorrow even better.
