Chapter 21: That Absurd Kiss
I like to climb mountains, the last time I climbed Qingtian Mountain with Zhang Mingjun, I was deeply impressed, on the mountain, in the pine forest of the cliffs, there are streams, there are pine waves, there are red mountains, there are bushes, there are all kinds of flowers and plants. And the air is fresh, and you will feel like you are part of nature in the embrace of mountain streams and forests. Of course, what makes me even more excited is the cute and charming Zhang Mingjun and her alternative and absurd kiss.
I always admire those hermit masters who practice Taoism in the deep mountains, those white-bearded old men with crane hair and childish faces, picking the essence of heaven and earth, and participating in the mysteries of the universe, which is really awesome!
I have also thought deeply about the issue of cultivating and becoming immortals, and when I asked Li Yunshen, a master in our village, with these questions, Li Yunshen said to me: "Throughout the ages, there have been very few people who have truly cultivated and become immortals. The universe is made of yin and yang, Taiji gives birth to two yi, two yi gives birth to four elephants, four elephants give birth to gossip, gossip becomes sixty-four hexagrams, between heaven and earth, everything must follow a yin and yang harmony of the truth, the same is true of cultivation, if you want to cultivate the positive fruit, you should first cut off the seven emotions and six desires, and practice wholeheartedly, to become immortals, in addition to practicing the necessary methods of Taoism, such as taking food, keeping one, practicing qi, guiding, bigu, room technique, and practicing martial arts, but also pay attention to remembering merits, keeping Gengshen, and learning the Tao The most important thing is to be loyal, filial piety, harmony, obedience, benevolence, Faith and righteousness are the foundation, those who want to become immortals in the earth should establish three hundred virtues, those who want to become immortals in heaven should establish one thousand three hundred virtues, and doing good deeds and accumulating virtue are the foundation of those who learn the Tao!"
Li Yunshen's so-called method of cultivating the Tao to become an immortal is quite profound, and the methods of taking food, keeping one, practicing qi, guiding, bigu, room in the art, practicing exercises, remembering merits, and guarding Gengshen are really quite mysterious.
Li Yunshen said: "Taking is eating, if a person wants to live a long life, the stomach must be kept empty, after the stomach and intestines are empty, the circulation of qi and blood will be natural and smooth, but ordinary people don't eat and can't, so in the process of cultivation, take some vegetarian food or Chinese herbal medicine, like I said before that the bait made of Chinese herbs has the effect of nourishing and calming, and taking food is the most basic part of the Taoist cultivation process." "Shouyi" is to keep the three souls and seven souls in the human body, the three souls are the essence, qi, and god, and the seven souls are joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, sorrow, thought, and sorrow, and the purpose of keeping one is to make the three souls and seven souls in the human body not escape outward and stay in the body, and people's feelings are the most difficult to control and elusive, so it is very difficult to keep one, and it is of course even more difficult for those Taoist masters to cultivate to the realm of the three flowers and the five qi dynasties. The so-called "Xingqi" is a kind of breathing and breathing cultivation method, divided into two kinds of external breathing method and internal breathing method, the external breathing method is the deep breathing method, in order to spit out the old and absorb the new, concentrate and calm the breath, so that the breathing becomes light, slow, even, long and deep, so as to achieve the purpose of health preservation, "internal breathing method" is also called "fetal breathing method", closing the mouth and nose does not breathe the air from the outside world, but uses the body's self-breathing internal circulation system, just like the fetus breathing in the mother's womb, this method is very difficult, but once the cultivation is done properly, there will be a miraculous effect, some people who have attained the Tao "Sleeping Gong" is this kind of "fetal breath" state of sleep, not sleep, and people who practice this kind of "sleep Gong" can often live to be hundreds of years old, which is a relatively high realm in Taoist cultivation. The so-called "guidance" can be said to be an auxiliary way in Taoist cultivation, or stretching and bending, or pitching, or leaning, or walking, or crawling, or massaging around the body are also guided, because the human body's acupuncture points are distributed around the body, the guidance can make the muscles and flesh stretch, the blood and veins are unblocked, so as to ensure that the body's functions are in a benign state, Hua Tuo's "five bird play" is a good guide technique. "Bigu" is also called "broken grain", the characteristic is to take the qi instead of taking the five grains, the cultivation method is to take laxatives first, remove the stagnant things in the abdomen, and then reduce the food, and finally to the hunger strike, do not know the five flavors, only rely on the convincing or drinking mountain spring water can maintain life, the three corpse insects in the human body depend on the gas of the grain to survive, cut off the grain will also kill the three corpse insects in the human body, go to the evil in the body, people can naturally live longer. ”
Li Yunshen's explanation aroused my curiosity even more, especially the two realms of 'Three Flowers Gathering Peak' and 'Five Qi Dynasty Yuan' that he said, I seem to have heard of them somewhere, anyway, they are two very awesome realms. So Li Yunshen explained to me the realm of 'Three Flowers Gathering Peak' and 'Five Qi Dynasty Yuan' - "Three Flowers Gathering Peaks Belong to the Roots, Five Qi Dynasty Yuan is Thorough", "Three Flowers Gathering Peak" and "Five Qi Dynasty Yuan" These two states are the superior realms of internal rest, and the so-called "Three Flowers Gathering Peak" is the mud pill palace where essence, qi and spirit gather in the human brain after gradual cultivation The feeling, the whole body is as soft and soft as a baby, very comfortable and proper, if it survives, it gradually reaches the feeling of forgetting the body, at this time the eyes have the phenomenon of returning to shine, and the soul reaches a pure and flawless level, as if the soul is out of the body, reaching a state of nothingness, and people who practice this realm can live forever. "Five Qi Chaoyuan" refers to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys in the human body, the five organs of the qi after gradual cultivation, to achieve the degree of aggregation and unity, as you like, so as to run towards the dantian acupoint between the two breasts of the human body, the human body can not breathe from the outside world, only rely on the qi of the dantian, at this time, feel the breath of the breath naturally stop or return to calm, as if in the scene of the wind and the sun, the breeze does not move, the water waves are not prosperous, the body and mind inside and outside, the characters of heaven and earth are content to "neutralize" At this time, I don't know the existence of my body, and my usual feelings and thoughts have all disappeared without a trace, fused with all things in heaven and earth, and reached an otherworldly realm. ”
Li Yunshen said that the two realms of 'Three Flowers Gathering Peak' and 'Five Qi Dynasty Yuan' were extremely wonderful, and I sighed at the time - "If only I could reach these two realms!"
Li Yunshen smiled at me and said, "If you reach these two realms, then you will not become an immortal, it is impossible to become an immortal, but it is still possible to prolong your life! I see that your heavenly court is full, the earth pavilion is round, and there is a heroic righteousness between your eyebrows, and a person like you can properly cultivate the way of meditation!"
At that time, I was ignorant and didn't know what the so-called meditation was, but I was curious, so I knelt down and bowed to him three times: "Master, you can teach me." ”
That is, at the beginning of that summer vacation, I not only studied calligraphy and painting with Li Yunshen, studied the "Microcosm", and studied Qian Xuesen's "Engineering Cybernetics", but I also practiced meditation and meditation for about an hour before going to bed at night or before getting up the next morning.
