Chapter 65 The Tao and the Buddha Say
The universe is full of matter, solid, liquid, gaseous, and plasma are the four forms of cosmic matter, of which solid, liquid, and gaseous (mainly referring to the outer atmosphere of the planet), these three forms of cosmic matter, together are less than 1% of the content of the whole universe, and the plasma aetheric energy in the cosmic space is the plasma solar wind heat flow continuously emitted by the sun and other stars, accounting for 99% of the whole universe. ”
"Yi", "Dao", "Taiji" and "Yuanqi" are the names of the ancient Chinese sages for the occupier of space, and in the space concept of the ancients in China, space is used to hold matter, and matter is the smallest occupier of space. After the condensation of Yi, Dao, and Taiji, it is an observable object, and after it is dispersed, it is the unobservable vitality, and the tangible and intangible are all caused by the gathering and dispersion of the occupants of this space. Wu Lang continued slowly.
"You are taking the exposition of the ancients in our country on cultivation, combining it with foreign understanding of cultivation, blending it with modern science, and then transforming it into your own perception and elaboration, your concept is very novel and interesting!" Yin Yuting looked at Wu Lang in surprise.
"Tingting, you are really very smart, you can make sense as soon as you say it, and you can understand it at a glance. Wu Lang looked at her with a laugh.
"No matter how smart I am, I'm not as smart as you, you are really smart who doesn't show anything!" Yin Yuting glanced at him.
Wu Lang shook his head and smiled, and continued: "Therefore, any gaseous state itself is composed of a mixture of decomposed elements of a variety of substances, and plasma gas is composed of the smallest proton nucleus, which will naturally cool and condense into graupel particles in space operation, and will collide with each other to absorb small balls and large spheres due to electrostatic gravity, and will deteriorate and change in thermal reactions after becoming objects. "Aether" is the plasma gas in space, which is what the ancients in China called the Yuan Qi, so the "Aether" is the Yuan Qi is the plasma state, and the Yuan Qi = Aether = the plasma state. Physical chemistry is the study of the movement and change of objects, and the study of the aether of the energy should be regarded as basic research. ”
In the river water, no matter how many big fish and small fry are crowded together, there must be a "gap gap", and this gap is completely filled by the river water, and in the gaseous plasma, no matter how small the proton and the particle are, there must be a gap between the space, but this gap is always filled by the energy ether. All the fish in the river and sea are immersed in the water of the river and sea, and all the objects in the universe are soaked in the aether of the vitality. ”
"In the "Zhou Yi" written in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty (about 1029 B.C.), there has long been an academic theory on Yuanqi, which has been handed down for more than 3,000 years, and the academic research of Yuanqi has been very popular and developed during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period to the Tang Dynasty, the Han Dynasty and the Song Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty. China's ancient theory of vitality holds that the universe, heaven and earth and all things in the world are composed of "vitality", and that "qi" is sparse and formless, imperceptible to the naked eye, but the vitality is filled with space in the universe; In the movement, and in the contradiction and conflict between the two attributes of yin and yang, the vitality constitutes the diversity of all things in the universe and their movements. ”
Yin Yuting listened carefully to Wu Lang's discussion, sometimes nodding frequently, sometimes frowning slightly, but Wu Lang was patient and meticulous, answering her incomprehension and doubts in detail one by one.
The word "yuan" is "original", "beginning" and "beginning". In ancient China, the theory of the materialization of vitality, the theory of yin and yang and the five elements, and the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine believe that "vitality" is the origin of all things, and human beings, as a part of all things, are also formed by the aggregation of various kinds of vitality. Vitality is the source of life, vitality is also the material basis for the natural unity of human life and heaven and earth, "the unity of heaven and man" is the scientific concept of the ancients in our country, the prosperity and decline of the vitality and the operation of whether it is normal, directly related to people's life, old age, sickness and death. Sufficient vitality and normal operation are the guarantee of human health, and insufficient vitality or imbalance of qi is the cause of disease. In traditional Chinese medicine, there is a saying that "all diseases are born from qi", wind, heat, dampness, fire, dryness, and cold, which are called the causes of the six qi; The theory of Yuanqi has played a great role in promoting the formation and development of the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine and qigong fitness. ”
"The theory of Yuan Qi has spread to the West in ancient times, and some foreign scientists have studied and studied China's traditional Chinese culture, he said: Qi can be called "ether" in our place, because the substance is completely fluid at first, without hardness, without interruption, without termination, and cannot be divided into parts. It is the thinnest object one can imagine. The physical and chemical theory of the most basic Yuan Qi of the ancient civilization of our Shenzhou Province has promoted the development of Western science in the early years, and the Yuan Qi Theory still has an enlightening and deepening effect on the understanding of the theory of the structure of matter by modern Chinese and foreign scientists!" Wu Lang finished speaking, his eyes showed a proud look, and his momentum changed suddenly, and his body emitted an extremely faint but unusually clear white glow in an instant.
Yin Yuting's eyes widened, looking at this scene in surprise, and then, she rubbed her eyes with both hands, shook her head, and looked at Wu Lang in front of her.
"What kind of eyes are you, are they so round and big, you want to eat me?" Wu Lang looked at her funny.
"It's nothing, maybe I was dazzled. Yin Yuting shook her head.
"I didn't eat lunch at all, so I went back to eat first. Yin Fatzi opened the car door, sat in, and urged Tingting to drive.
The three of them returned to the villa in the community, and simply ate some meals, Yin Yuting pulled Wu Lang again, and said, "Then tell me what kind of knowledge and insight the ancient Taoist and Buddhist families have on the soul in our country?"
Wu Lang took out two bottles of fine Scottish "Waterga" from the refrigerator, walked to the sofa in the living room, sat down, unscrewed the cap, raised his head and drank half a bottle in one go, and took a deep breath of cigarette before he said slowly: "Buddhism does not talk about the soul, but about divine consciousness, while Taoism talks about the original spirit." The soul, generally explained as consciousness, spirituality, and mental activity, is the "biological information energy" in the human brain, bone marrow, and nervous system, and has six elements, that is, the first six consciousnesses of the eight consciousnesses in Buddhism, namely eye, ear, nose, tongue, body, and consciousness. With the destruction of the six roots of the body, these six consciousnesses are also lost. Therefore, after death, there are no such six consciousnesses. But it does not mean that these six consciousnesses are extinguished, that is, the soul is not extinguished, and will look for the next carrier, that is, reincarnation. ”
Yin Yuting and Yin Fatzi sat on the sofa, listening to Wu Lang's words without blinking.
"The soul is what religions think is like this, and the same thing is constantly repeating death and rebirth, but they can't explain why they lose the memory of their previous life, why each life is different. Buddhism has a more reasonable, comprehensive, clear, and definite reasoning about this, because in Buddhism, in addition to the first six consciousnesses, there are also the seventh and eighth consciousnesses. In Buddhism, the divine consciousness is broadly defined to include all minds, but the Consciousness-only sect refers specifically to the eighth consciousness, the alayya. This eighth consciousness is like a storehouse in which all the seeds of karma are stored, and once the seeds are ripe, they arise and the present seeds become new seeds, and so on, driving the six realms of reincarnation. Because the seeds contained in the eighth consciousness are constantly changing, even though the same consciousness is constantly being reincarnated, the seeds of each life are different, so the lives of each life will be different, and the memories of the past lives will disappear as the old seeds end and leave. Consciousness is like a rushing river, although it is the same river, what is contained in it changes from moment to moment, and the inner is no longer the same. That's the difference between the consciousness and the soul. Obviously, Buddhism has explained in a more in-depth and comprehensive way the cycle of life and death, karma and karma. After Wu Lang finished speaking, he took a deep puff of cigarette and drank the remaining half bottle of liquor before slowly exhaling the smoke in his mouth.
