Who actually passed down the Dharma to us? From this perspective, it was mainly passed down by those who did not attain enlightenment but wanted to. These people later built the Buddhist system based on the Buddhist scriptures. In addition, they introduced the carrot-and-stick system of managing people, which said that if you believe in me, you will get rich, get rid of suffering, and be reborn in the Western Paradise, etc. If you don't believe in me, you will go down the mountain of knives, enter the sea of fire, go to hell and suffer the pain of reincarnation, etc. At the same time, they also established a complete set of religious rituals and a complex system of ritual norms. Although it is very Jianghu and realistic, objectively speaking, a large number of Buddhist scriptures have been passed down intact. 0 reply
