Ex-Wife is a Big Villainess

Jiang Shouzhong pondered for a moment and said, "In my view, the so-called true scripture is a method that can achieve utmost nirvana in the silence of emptiness."

Yuantong smiled again and asked, "May I dare to ask, how can this poor monk obtain the true scripture?"

You should ask the girls of Spring Rain Building about that.

Jiang Shouzhong inwardly mocked for a moment before saying mysteriously, "To seek Dao, do not speak of destiny; in cultivation, do not seek true scriptures."

Yuantong frowned slightly and then asked, "If one does not seek the true scriptures in cultivation, then what should one cultivate?"

Jiang Shouzhong fell silent for a while before saying, "Cultivation to become Buddha lies in seeking. Enlightenment to understand one’s true nature lies in knowing. In cultivation, let actions govern nature. In seeking Dao, let nature guide actions. The enlightened ones, create precepts from the heart; the cultivators, control the heart with precepts.

Those who have faith without proof, although they do not incur evil results, they dwell in causes, results, thoughts, and the heart. Such cycles of birth and death do not lead to nirvana. Those who do not deny cause and effect dwell without dwelling, without desire nor non-desire, without precepts nor without precepts, such is nirvana."

Yuantong’s body shook, and his gaze fixed tightly on Jiang Shouzhong.

He opened his mouth as if wanting to ask more but ultimately remained silent.

After a long time, he brought his palms together respectfully and mockingly said, "This poor monk should not have asked. If Jiang Shouzhong ever has time to visit Vajra Temple, I believe Shen Tong would like you; I shall take my leave now."
