Chapter 188: Chaos
"Pangu?" Lu An was a little puzzled, he didn't know what the relationship between Pangu in the myth of the Nine Shadows was related to the prophet.
"Yes, Aisin Jueluo Kehuang told me that he knew everything too late, that he had lost three important holy weapons, that he knew what would happen in the future, that Pangu had told him, but that he could not tell me very clearly. ”
Ji Tianci then told Lu An about the situation when he met Aixin Jueluo Kehuang, and also told the content of "Dijun Annals".
Lu An was amazed when he heard it, and his expression became more solemn, and Ji Tianci spoke for half an hour before finishing.
Lu An fell into deep thought, and it took a long time for him to realize, "In this way, Pangu has been observing the development of the earth, and he has seen the crisis, so he told the prophet and asked the prophet to help mankind avoid the crisis." ”
"Yes, whether it is Pangu or a fortune teller, the future they talk about is a future that can happen, and what the future will be, everything depends on the individual. Pangu could see many things that we couldn't see, and I had a feeling that he was still alive and that he was watching us in a more magical place. ”
***
More than 5,000 years ago, in order to save his race, Pangu burned his soul against the laws of nature, and did not choose to fly again, not only that, but he also broke the barrier of time and space, returned to the original realm, and opened a channel on the earth to connect the heavenly stars.
Pangu thought that he would die, but there was a place for all things to die, and after Pangu 'died', the original realm could not accommodate him, and he was no longer in the heavenly realm. So where the hell did he go?
"Tao Te Ching" has a saying: Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, three to all things, and before all things is the Tao, before the Tao is chaos, Pangu calls his position "after death" chaos.
Modern science holds that about 15 billion years ago, the universe had not yet been born, it was ethereal, and the universe was still in a state of no front and back, no left and right, no up and down, no center, and no boundary, and this state was called chaos.
Pangu is in chaos, but he has to feel even more weird, in the chaotic space, all dimensions are chaotic. Ji Tianci once guessed that Pangu was in a higher-dimensional space, but Pangu was actually in a more dangerous space.
The spatial dimension there is chaotic, if a basketball is placed in chaos, sometimes you see it like a "cake", sometimes you see it like a "ball", and sometimes you even see a "square".
However, what is more terrifying than the spatial confusion is the confusion of time, Pangu is in chaos and has no concept of time, sometimes it feels like 10,000 years have passed, but it seems that everything is in the blink of an eye.
Pangu no longer has a specific form, he can only be sure that his divine soul has entered chaos, and the divine soul is the heavenly soul and the earth soul, and the heavenly soul and the earth soul represent people's consciousness and emotions.
It was Pangu's consciousness and emotions that entered the chaos, and he also saw a lot of "essence" in the chaos.
He saw the evolution of the world. He can see the original realm, he can see the heavenly realm, and he can see many different worlds, and he doesn't know which "direction" he is in, because there is no "up, down, left, right", and he also has no "big or small" distinction, sometimes he feels that a world is very small, and sometimes he feels that a grain of sand is very big.
He can't enter one world after another, just like people can't enter "paper", people make pieces of paper in three-dimensional space, they paint on paper, but people can't enter the painting. Pangu saw that "Wuji gives birth to Taiji, and Taiji gives birth to all things", and saw that chaos evolved into stable universes, but he was also unable to enter these universes.
Pangu found the "reference", which is the earth. Observing the development of the earth all the time, we have the concept of time. Pangu didn't dare to be "distracted", although in the chaos, he could see the entire original realm clearly, just like overlooking the city on an airplane, but if he wanted to see a certain place, he still needed to "concentrate".
He has been staring at the entire solar system, not daring to relax at all, it is the land of fire of the sacrifice clan, he once only looked at the appearance of the stars in the sky, but when he looked back, he found that the time of the earth had passed a thousand years. In the chaos, time is also a mess, although time will not go back, but the speed of time is fast and slow, Pangu can only feel the speed of time by staring at the earth with all his heart.
On Earth, time is stable and even, so a car traveling at a constant speed on the highway is always moving at its rated speed. But in Pangu's eyes, the car is fast and slow, because in the chaos he is in, the speed of time is also fast and slow, sometimes the earth only passes for a day, but Pangu has the feeling that a year has passed, he sees that the people on the earth are doing "extremely slow movements", and sometimes he feels that the earth is like pressing the "fast forward button", and a year passes in the blink of an eye.
Pangu saw many different versions of himself in the chaos.
In Chaos, there are not only length, width, and height dimensions, but Pangu also sees the "energy dimension", "dark matter dimension", and "superstring dimension...... In different dimensions, one's "appearance" is different.
These dimensions exist on Earth, but they exist in a "projection" way, and people can't see exactly what they look like, but they can feel their presence.
With the development of human science, the smallest matter explored by human beings has gone from molecules to atoms, and then to quarks, quarks form atoms, and atoms form molecules. So, what makes quarks? It seems that the material world can always find smaller matter. Moreover, even if the quark is the smallest, is that half a quark smaller than a quark?
When the development of the natural sciences hits a bottleneck, it can only be explained by philosophy.
The Buddha said that "one sand is one world", and Buddhism believes that one grain of sand can see three thousand worlds, and modern science calls it "cosmic holographic theory".
Buddhism believes that people can cultivate millions of incarnations, and Pangu knows that it is the appearance of people in different dimensions, and the scientific understanding of the most basic component of matter, once thought that it was an atom, later thought that it was a particle, and then thought that it was a proton, etc., and it seemed that the most basic substance could not be found.
Buddhism, on the other hand, believes that "all things have no self-nature, no essence, and all things are empty", trying to explain the root of all things. Buddhism and science went in the same direction, and quantum theory and superstring theory later appeared in scientific theory.
One of the basic ideas of string theory is that the basic unit of nature is not dot-like particles such as electrons, photons, neutrinos, and quarks, but small, tiny, wire-like "strings". The different vibrations and motions of strings produce a variety of different elementary particles, and energy and matter can be converted, so string theory does not prove that matter does not exist.
Whether it is Buddhism or science, in Pangu's view, this is because people see the world from different dimensions, and he himself is in a chaotic "holographic dimension".
The Buddha said that "the mind creates all things, and all things are empty", and it is already remarkable to be able to have this feeling in a "painting", although this sentence is an ancient philosophical concept, but the development of science to this day seems to illustrate this truth. "Evil" is born from the heart, and criminals must have evil thoughts in their hearts. And if the human body is traced back to the root, it is a fertilized egg, and there is nothing before the fertilized egg, it can be said that the love in the hearts of men and women created people, and the so-called "heart creates all things".
And what is the root of all things? The Buddha can only explain it in terms of "everything is empty." Science has given many explanations, but each explanation is like a philosophical concept.
Pangu was able to see everything clearly, to see all dimensions clearly, and he faintly felt that there were higher beings maintaining the order of each universe and making stable universes take shape.
It wasn't until Heavenly Punishment appeared that he was more sure of what he thought.
