Swindled by a Saint? (1)

In the Sun Flame Grand Hall, Kong Xuan said to Lu Ping softly, "You must know that Buddhism advocates sacrificing oneself for others and measuring others with oneself. As the saying goes, the Mahayana Buddha dharma is used to measure oneself, and the great success of the Buddha dharma is used to measure all living beings. However, the essence of cultivation is to be respected by oneself, to absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, and to absorb all things in the world to strengthen one's body. Therefore, this is to form a kind of behavioral pattern of disobedience." 

Kong Xuan sighed and said, "Most living beings, whether they are humans or innate gods, are selfish and self-interested. That's why they constantly pursue strength and cultivation. "However, to act in such a grand and pedantic manner is something that cultivators don't want to see. And those who can really do that kind of thing, on the contrary, don't pursue strength that much."
