Zhu Xi once said: "Half a day of meditation, half a day of reading." ”

This sentence was said by him to his students, and it is not clear how his own practice is.

But judging from the many descriptions in his anthology, meditation undoubtedly played an important role in his life.

He died at the age of seventy.

It's not a premature death, but it's not a longevity either.

However, one of the very important reasons is that he was dragged into a political storm in his later years, and all kinds of blows without a lower limit came one after another, and he was in an extremely bad situation, and his will came from the Nine Heavens, and he would never wait for the day of sunshine.

If it weren't for this incident, it's hard to say how long he would have lived.

He is one of the representatives of Confucianism.

Not Tao, not Buddha.

Meditation, practice, etc., in the impression of ordinary people, either belong to the Tao or to the Buddha, but in fact, the three paths of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in ancient China, where there are achievements and fame, most of them are related to this. This was the first lesson that Mr. Zhang gave to Xu Guangling.

Xu Guangling has now taught others as well.

Although he didn't plan to accept this little girl as a "disciple", he didn't care much about it.

But.

Regardless of the heart and deeds.

In terms of behavior, he did use the most reasonable way and method that the Great Grandmaster had seen to cultivate Shen Xin's little sapling.

Sit-in, Xu Guangling didn't teach her.

Although before, she spent most of the day "meditating".

The kind of meditation where the soul doesn't know where to go, or just locks itself off and leaves a shell alone.

It stands to reason that with a little teaching, the girl will be able to easily achieve a formal and deeper level of meditation.

The so-called "Five Elements Mountain Concentration Ape", the author of Journey to the West uses a very vivid technique to describe this conventional introductory means of cultivation, well, one of the routines, it is not necessary to meditate, but this is indeed one of the classic means.

How long was Sun Wukong suppressed at the foot of the Five Elements Mountain?

Five hundred years!

Of course, this is a literary description, but the meaning revealed in it is related to the real practice situation.

That is, it is easy to meditate, but it is difficult to get started.

The stillness of the body is only a means, just a bridge, and only when you cross this bridge, you can reach the tranquility of the mind from the stillness of the body, and then you can be regarded as walking to the other side.

This bridge, the Great Sage has walked for 500 years.

And ordinary people in general......

Anyway, it's not that easy to walk.

But Shen Xin is different.

This bridge, for her, did not exist in the first place, or rather, although it existed, it was extremely short, a slight step, and then three steps and two steps, and it passed.

The process that others need to be honed in three or five years, or even ten or twenty years, is not needed for her at all.

But because she was too quiet before, now Xu Guangling wants her to move a little.

Whether it's a 10-kilometer run in the morning, a yoga workout afterwards, or a farming session in the afternoon, this is the case.

Let her be tossed all day, and only when she sleeps at night, can she be quiet.

Movement is also an opportunity for the growth and cultivation of life.

In this process, Xu Guangling provided her with the best environment for growth and cultivation.

The best.

Even if it's not the "most", it's not much different.

Xu Guangling did not have such treatment at the beginning, and he was 108,000 miles away.

Of course, Xu Guangling's treatment, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Chen, these two old people did not have it at the beginning, and they were also 108,000 miles behind.

Therefore, a good teacher, or guide, is really too important and important.

Even from a secular point of view, Mr. Zhang's five medical disciples have all entered the core sequence of the domestic academic community, without exception. This is the importance of a good teacher.

Don't talk about running, don't talk about yoga, why let Shen Xin farm?

It is to let her watch, one seed after another, under her own hands, break out of the darkness, and then sprout little by little.

In this whole process.

She's going to dig the ground.

She's going to crush the earth.

She's going to sow seeds.

She's going to take cuttings.

She's going to water.

......

Xu Guangling didn't help her in any link, everything was done by herself from beginning to end.

If you want to help, it is to let her plant some plants outside the courtyard not to be frozen to death by the cold, and this is only the way to do it.

Under Xu Guangling's instructions, Shen Xin planted carefully, and then carefully observed and recorded the growth of each plant.

At first, this was just an act of order, but slowly, Shen Xin's heart sank in, and she began to treat every plant that came out of her hands with real care!

Shh

When the shallots outside the hospital were ready to be picked, she was even happier than when she saw those in the hospital, and this night, she made fried Chinese cabbage with shallots outside the hospital.

Needless to say, the taste is naturally different from that in the hospital, I don't know how many levels.

But Shen Xin ate extremely happily, and that seemed to be the real joy of harvest.

Shen Xin's harvest is, of course, more than just vegetables.

During this time, regardless of the aspect of heart and mind, and physically, she has changed greatly.

First of all, not fat.

Not fat at all.

Although she eats haise every day, especially dinner, and eats a lot of food, which is larger than the amount of food an ordinary big man, her weight is indeed decreasing, little by little, towards the most "reasonable" data.

Not fat, not skinny, just the appearance.

Under the surface, the inside of her body, growth, metabolism, or metabolic cycle, etc., is entering an extremely good state.

This is one of them.

Second, in the room where she lives, every night is permeated and "steamed" by the vitality and aura naturally emanating from the plants and trees, and the qi and blood in her body evolve in the direction of abundance and purity at the same time.

And it's both inside out and outside in.

The vitality and aura, accompanied by the unique fragrance of plants and trees, enter the viscera with her breathing, and then in a state of sleep, moisturize her viscera little by little, and then from the viscera to the whole body.

It's from the inside out.

A person's breath, in addition to the mouth and nose, also has pores throughout the body.

The extremely abundant vitality and aura also followed this channel, infiltrating Shen Xin's body little by little.

It's from the outside in.

And these times, the most obvious feature is the change in her skin texture and complexion.

Her eyes grew brighter and brighter.

If it used to be just the clarity of a normal young woman, now it is as bright as the morning star.

It's clear and bright.

There are no acne or anything like it on the face, and the whole face is like a baby, and it is the most ideal state, without the slightest blemish.

It's the same with hands.

Shen Xin's hands were actually quite rough before, and even had a little calluse.

Besides, she has been farming these days, it is a real farming, and the amount of labor is quite a lot.

However, her hands also seem to have changed the most.

How rough it was before, how delicate it is now, it's a 180-degree turn.

The shop where she went to take a bath has been often asked, and this "often" has reached the level of every day!

And in that women's gym, she quickly became the brightest star.

This also caused her a lot of distress.
