A true story of reincarnation told by Master Yin Guang

A true story of reincarnation told by Master Yin Guang

During the Taiping Xingguo period of the Song Dynasty, a monk named Bicong visited Mount Wutai. It was midsummer, so it was convenient for Qingliang Temple to live in the summer with the monks.At that time, there was an old monk among the monks who were crazy and crazy. The public looked down on him, but only Bincong respected him.

After the summer and peace and stability are complete, Biancong will continue to travel.When he said goodbye to the old monk, the old monk took out a letter from his arms and told him: Go to the north of Kaifeng City, find a man named Mint, and send the letter to him!

Bincong bid farewell to Mount Wutai. After walking for a while, he found that the old monk did not explain the address. He muttered in his heart: The address is unknown, where can I find it?I don’t know what’s important in the letter?It is not easy to go back to Mount Wutai, so I opened the letter and read it. The letter reads: You have been wandering in the world for a long time, will those sentient beings easily subdued?If you have been subdued, the task of saving life will be completed. You can return quickly. If you stay for too long, you may be defeated by a strong fate and the karma that flows into the world will be prayed, prayed! After reading it, Bincon was shocked and hurriedly sealed the letter again.

One day, when Bincong passed by the Guangji River in Kaifeng, he heard a group of children calling from afar: Mint! Mint! Bincong went over and asked: Who is Mint?Where are others?The child pointed to a pig pen in a family named Zhao and said: A big pig with a copper bell on the neck of the pig pen and a golden mane is called mint.

When Bincong went to the pig farmer surnamed Zhao, he asked the owner: Why is this pig called Mint?

The owner said: This pig is very special, loves to clean, and only eats mint, so the children in the village call him mint.Usually when a butcher comes to catch a pig, the other pigs are afraid of running around and escaping. If the pig is led by Mint, it will calm down and not run around and wail, allowing the butcher to slaughter it.Therefore, in the future, the butchers will take Mint to the side waiting to slaughter the pigs and go around it, saving the tragic struggle and wailing of the previous pigs.So the family cherishes him very much and has been reluctant to kill him for many years.

After hearing this, Bincong called out: Mint! I have a letter for you! The big pig jumped up and stood up when he heard the sound. Bincong threw the letter over, and swallowed it in one bite, maintaining the posture of standing like a human being, and then moved to rebirth.

This story comes from the "Qingliang Mountain Record" revised by Master Yin Guang. The mint pig turned out to save sentient beings, and took advantage of the power of great compassion and vows to drive back the lurking Bodhisattva of Compassion.Bodhisattvas should be saved by the pig body, and then appear in the pig body to preach the Dharma to inspire the wishful jewel in the hearts of sentient beings.

From this we can see that those who persuade us to enter Buddhism, approach, enter Buddhism, coax us, trick us into Buddhism, draw us into Buddhism, buy Buddhism, and sell Buddhism, those who provide us with opportunities for giving, practice, eliminate karma, chant Buddha's name, and recite scriptures may be Bodhisattvas and great good teachers lurking in our life. We only ask you where you are, but we don't know each other.
