Endless hiding

(one )It means the virtue that contains infinite. It also means the Endless Sea of Tibetan Buddhism and the Endless Dharma Treasure. That is, the sea of truth and law is vast and boundless, and it encompasses all things. (See "Endless" 5133)

(two )The temple borrows the property or the remaining property offered by the believers to others, and uses the interest obtained as the cost of repairing and maintenance of the Galan. Also known as endless wealth, immortality money, and treasury money. The Book of the Buddhist Monks (May 4:3 ○Fourth Middle School): "The law says that there is endless wealth, and the mother spreads endlessly. ”

This wind originated from India. According to the records of the Vinaiya Volume 22 of the Vinaiya, the monk received endless gifts to repair the Kalan. However, because the Buddha had forbidden the monks to resell the gifts, he placed the gifts in the house. Later, the donor found that the temple had not been repaired and he was criticized. The monk reported the matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha instructed: If you repair the Kalan, you can redeem endless gifts to redeem.

In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, believers also practiced endless methods of hiding based on the Futian thought. The third-level religious disciples in the Sui Dynasty advocated endless hiding methods. During the Wude period of Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty (618) ～626），Xinyi set up an "Endless Title Courtyard" in Huadu Temple in Chang'an to manage Endless Title. During the Zhenguan period of Emperor Taizong (627 ～649），The Endless Tibetan Courtyard collects endless wealth such as brocade, silk, gold and jade, and provides the use of repairs to all temples in the world. In the 23rd year of Zhenguan (649), the Endless Tibetan Court held an Endless Tibetan offering, which was widely offered to monks and lay people across the country. In the first year of Ruyi, Empress Tianwu (692), he also visited Dafuxian Temple for endless storage. During the Chang'an period (701 ～704）、In the second year of Jinglong (708) and the fourth year, Huadu Temple held unblocked meetings respectively. However, in the first year of Kaiyuan (713), Emperor Xuanzong of Tang ordered the destruction of the endless treasury courtyard of Huadu Temple. In the thirteenth year, he forbidden the third-level religion.

At first, the procedures for endless loans were very simple, and there was no need for document restrictions, and only required return on the agreed date. However, in the Song Dynasty, major temples or wealthy temples rushed to set up a vanity warehouse (Endless Tibetan Courtyard) for profit and formed usury. ［Volume 33 of Mahasangjj, Volume 15 of Song Dynasty Monks, Volume 20 of Song House Notes Volume 67 of Zen Forest Elephant Artifacts and Notes Money and Money Door ］（See "Eternal Life Library" 3591)

(three )A monk in the Tang Dynasty. He is from Caohou Village, Shaozhou (Guangdong), and his common surname is Liu. The birth and death year is unknown. The master often recited the Great Nirvana Sutra. At that time, the Sixth Patriarch wanted to visit the fifth Patriarch Hongren and passed by Shaozhou. He listened to the master chanting the scriptures and gave an explanation. The master then held the scriptures and asked the words, thinking that if he could not read, he would not be able to understand the meaning. The Sixth Patriarch said that the wonderful principles of all Buddhas were not related to the words. The master was extremely surprised and told all the great masters of the family that he praised the Sixth Patriarch as a Taoist and should offer him. At that time, Baolin Ancient Temple was already in ruins due to the war at the end of the Sui Dynasty, so it rebuilt the Buddhist temple at the ancient foundation and invited the Sixth Patriarch to live there. The teachings were spread and the Baofang was rebuilt. ［The Buddhist scriptures of the ancient volumes of the Three Sixth Patriarch Huineng, the Master of the Dharma, the Book of the Sixth Patriarch Huineng, the Book of the Thirty-third Patriarch of the Zhendan, and the Book of the Buddha's Shadow Volume 4 (Xuyun) ］ p5134
