Legend has it that the Demon King Bo Xun once arrogantly said to the Buddha: "When you reach the end of the Dharma, I will let my disciples and grandchildren mix into your Sangha treasure, put on your robe, and destroy your Dharma." They will distort your scriptures and break your precepts in order to achieve what I cannot achieve by force today. The Buddha listened to Bo Xun's words and was speechless for a long time, leaving only two lines of tears. Now, this prophecy is being fulfilled.
Recently, there has been a lot of news related to monks, and the popularity of a temple host and female anchor ** being defrauded of 3.2 million yuan has not yet dissipated, and the news that the fake monk Wei Gang was sentenced to life imprisonment has once again appeared on the hot search. The Baicheng Intermediate People's Court of Jilin Province ruled in the first instance that Wei Gang was sentenced to life imprisonment, deprivation of political rights for life, and confiscation of all personal property for the crimes of organizing, leading, and participating in the crimes of ** criminal organization, robbery, and ** crimes. Wei Gang seized the position of the head of the temple through illegal means and controlled many temples, and this "evil monk" was obviously deficient in Buddhism and the Buddha's heart.
Among the believers involved by Wei Gang, there were two people with special identities, namely Cai Jingchen, the deputy mayor of Taonan City at the time, and Zhang Wenju, deputy secretary of the Youth League Committee of Taonan City. Both of them have been dismissed, and what is unbelievable is that Cai Jingchen is actually Wei Gang's "sixth senior brother". They are in high positions but "don't believe in Marxism-Leninism and believe in ghosts and gods", and they have become Wei Gang's protective umbrella and jointly aiding and abusing, which is really embarrassing. As the old saying goes: "A monk with an umbrella is lawless." ”
The monks pay attention to the "four major emptiness", but the evil monk Wei Gang behaves with all five poisons. seized the temple by force, and the title of "Nine Greats" made him think of himself as the boss. He was greedy for wealth, and carried out organized fraud by selling magic weapons and offering to his teacher, and defrauded 14.67 million yuan. In addition, he indulged in lust and in more than a decade ** 14 women, including underage girls. After he became powerful and wealthy, he only cared about his legal status, not the real Dharma.
Wei Gang is a representative of the evil monks, however, there is no shortage of examples of Buddhist temples in China that have become commercial places. Countless temples collect money for entrance fees and incense, which has become a tool for making money. Buddhism has been interpreted as a means of defrauding money, and faith has been abused as a method of profit. In such an environment, scum like Wei Gang is not an exception, but an inevitability.
Finally, a word of caution for some: religion is not a place outside the law!
