The old man slowly turned around and looked at Wu Lang with a smile, and said softly: "Lang'er, don't be stubborn in your own nature, restrain yourself, act recklessly, and be free and easy, as long as you don't lose your original intention!" Everything I see is within me, nothing is separated from me, what you control controls you, everything that happens is your choice, giving is gaining, gaining is also losing, the present is the end of time, forever one, the universe is limited by our senses, giving up what you feel in order to experience the truth, love is the source of everything. ”

After listening to his father's words, Wu Lang lowered his head and was silent, and after a long time, he slowly raised his head, looked at his father, and asked, "Dad, what is the meaning of life?"

Hahaha......

The old man burst into laughter, and in the night sky, the floating white clouds dissipated with the laughter......

After a long time, the old man looked at Wu Lang kindly: "Lang'er, in fact, questions are sometimes more important than answers, or in other words, questions are answers." When more and more people begin to think about the question of "the meaning of life", we have taken an extremely important step in the history of human self-realization, and when the external material satisfaction is achieved, our pursuit has also begun to turn to something more valuable, that is, "the meaning of life". We can never stop at a certain moment in life, whether it is good or bad, everything will pass, life is just a process, so when we interpret it with meaning, we naturally cannot limit it to a certain moment or period, because it will eventually pass, from this point of view, life is meaningless. If we live our lives with the attitude of "life is meaningless", we can easily fall into the dilemma of negativity and inaction, which can relieve our stress to a certain extent, but at the same time, it will also make us lose the vitality that life should have. Therefore, the meaning of life should be reflected in every moment of life, and how I spend every moment of my life is not fundamentally different from how I spend this life. ”

Wu Lang was shocked when he heard this, nodded, and quietly listened to his father's words.

The old man continued with a smile: "Life is a process from front to back, and every moment of the present is the cause of every moment of the future. If you choose selfishness and greed in the present, then in the future, you will definitely experience pain and loneliness, and if you choose compassion and kindness in the present, then in the future, you will definitely experience happiness and joy. The real sign of a person's maturity is not the maturity of physical development, nor the cultivation of personal life independence, only when we treat ourselves sincerely, we can experience the real maturity, contemporary society, everyone seems to be very tired, some people say that they are in order to buy a big house, some people say that they are bearing huge loans, etc., everyone is tired for different reasons, but behind this there is the same goal, we are not really living for ourselves, there is no sincerity to treat their hearts, desire is not our enemy, hypocrisy is！”

"The great abundance of the material world has not brought ultimate happiness to mankind, on the contrary, we have entered an era of spiritual suffering, in which we are facing an unprecedented spiritual crisis, whether it is the rich with a lot of money or the poor with no food, all suffering all kinds of mental suffering. We always hope to find something in the world of the brain, whether it is a memory or a fantasy, as long as it can give me a kind of self, I feel safe, even if this thing is illusory, even if it brings me endless pain, living in the present is the best way to uncover this illusion, realize the illusion of all kinds of thoughts in the mind, and pull the self back to a place that only exists and is real, that is, the present, live in the present, we can get rid of the pain caused by this illusion! There is a red cloth whose red color is so real in the eyes of humans that we think it is real. Now, we put the cloth in the eyes of the snake, through modern science, we already know that the snake does not perceive red, so red does not exist in its world, so red is not real, we cannot think that we are human, and think that what we see is real, which is obviously irrational. ”

Wu Lang's expression moved when he heard this, and the slightest lightning flashed in his eyes......

The old man nodded slightly, and continued: "The world we humans see is limited to our eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and body, so we can't know the ultimate reality of the universe through our senses, which is why people often say that "when human beings think, God laughs", because our thinking is also based on the material world that we perceive, when this world is not real, how can we know the truth? When we live in the present moment, we can stay away from the world of the brain that is limited by the material world, and over time, we will be free from greed, anger, and stupidity, and we will see ourselves in others, and once the boundary between everything and ourselves disappears, we will be able to realize the unity of all things and see the truth of the whole universe. ”

"Dad, what is matter, what is consciousness?" Wu Lang asked.

The old man's eyes were full of love and touched Wu Lang's cheek, and said softly: "When we describe something as matter, we must describe a certain existence, that is, existence is matter, such as a table, I can see it accurately, so it exists, it is material." In addition, electromagnetic waves, although I can't perceive them directly, can be perceived by scientific instruments, so electromagnetic waves also exist, so they are substances. And the basis of existence is perception, this perception is divided into human sensory perception and perception with the help of other ways, and other ways of perception will eventually be transformed into human sensory perception, so the criterion for judging existence is human sensory perception, understanding this, we understand that there is actually no objective world, and the world we feel is completely different from the world perceived by a snake. In this world, all existence is based on perception, but human perception is very limited, the world that we perceive by our eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body is a one-sided world, and all our imagination is also based on perceiving the world, at this level, it is impossible for us to understand the truth of the whole world. The expression of the entire universe is infinite, so there are infinite worlds, but human perception determines the world we live in, and our technology is essentially expanding and extending our perception, but this expansion and extension is limited, so when we can't perceive a substance, we are not completely sure that it does not exist, it just has not been discovered, or that our perception is limited. ”

"The development of technology has allowed us to understand the structure of matter, but our understanding of consciousness is still very basic. In the age of quantum physics, we begin to understand that matter and consciousness are so closely related that we can no longer separate them, and that traditional matter is not unsatisfactory in understanding the nature of light. In fact, we have entered the stage of the unity of matter and consciousness, time is only an illusion of human beings, time does not exist, and all occurrences are hallucinations produced by human consciousness. Consciousness is matter, matter is also consciousness, the reason why we can't recognize this truth is because the evolution of our consciousness has not allowed us to reach such a stage, when we first enter this world, the illusion caused by all choices will further form our prejudice against this world, when we do not know the truth of the world, we always regard everything we perceive as the truth, and all our concepts and cognitions are in "self-grasping" All of this needs to be achieved by oneself, and when a person who sees a color describes a color to a colorblind person, all words are in vain. ”

Wu Lang looked at his father and said slowly: "Then these can only be obtained by one's own enlightenment, and then realized, others or external things can only play an auxiliary role, and after all, they cannot solve the fundamental problem." ”

The old man nodded with a smile and said: "We can understand that whether we can obtain wisdom and the amount of knowledge reserves, there is no certain connection, on the contrary, some so-called intellectuals are more likely to be trapped by their own learning knowledge, so it is not easy to reach, the realm of wisdom and light, the so-called for learning more and more, for the Tao day by day, for learning, the more you know, the better, for the acquisition of wisdom, but the less the better, the most profound things are often the easiest!" There are many scholars who deliberately complicate simple things and take pride in them, and those concepts that have been created have long been dazzling, let alone to obtain the truth of wisdom, all our human knowledge systems are based on the world perceived by our eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body, and these knowledge have made an important contribution to the progress of our sensory world. However, the true wisdom and light are beyond our perception, and all our knowledge also limits our true wisdom, open your eyes, you can see what is in front of you, and when you close your eyes, we can see the truth!"

"Everything is relative, if there is no this side, the opposite side does not exist, or in other words, if there is no role of this side, the opposite side will not work, for example, the reason why you can walk forward is because the ground is not moving, if the ground goes back, then it becomes a treadmill, and you will not move forward. Everything is constantly changing, and this change is relative, so there must be something unchanging as the basis for change. Because we think that we are immutable, then the outside world has the possibility of changing all the time, and if we are changing, then everything in the outside world will lose the basis of change and become eternal. If I am changing, then the world is eternal, and the truth is that "we ourselves are changing", I have disappeared in the last second, I am disappearing in this second, we are every moment of the present, every moment is constantly changing, if you start to live in the present, then the world we are facing is eternal. ”

All our thoughts are based on what our eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body perceive, and the world we feel by our eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body is an impermanent world, an illusory world, and our "false mind" arises because of the material of the impermanent world, and naturally it will not last forever. When external objects disappear, our "false mind" naturally cannot be relied on, so it is the root cause of life and death. ”

Suddenly, Wu Lang blurted out: "Dad, what is "sincerity"?"

The old man smiled: "Everything that can be expressed in words must be based on the world perceived by the eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body, so it is wrong as soon as you say it, only four words are enough, that is, "cultivating the truth by falsehood". ”

"Dad, what are you doing?" Wu Lang said from the bottom of his heart.

The old man shook his head and smiled: "Don't ask, listen to me, and write down everything I said tonight." ”

Wu Lang nodded vigorously and did not speak.

The old man turned to look at the moon again, and said slowly, "People are gradually losing the most basic abilities we once had, and choosing the clumsiest language as a tool to communicate with each other. "Mind Reading" or "Telepathy" Even now, each of us still retains more or less the most basic way of communication, once upon a time, when you faced someone, when he (she) has not yet spoken, you seem to have a very strong sense of what he wants to say, when you deal with a stranger for the first time, from your first feeling, you feel that this person is not worth making friends, as time goes by, it soon confirms your first feeling, and it turns out that when he (she) speaks to express his meaning, it is the same as what you just guessed。 People who like to keep pets can more or less reach a tacit understanding with their pets, whether it is a person or a pet, as long as one party is in a bad mood, the other party seems to be able to experience it immediately. The most common "electrocardiogram" phenomenon is the "quantum entanglement effect" between twins, that is, twins seem to be bound together through "quantum entanglement", not only can some twins know each other's thoughts in real time, understand each other's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, but also when one of them is sick or dies, the other can immediately sense each other's condition no matter where they are on the earth, and some even have a strange phenomenon of synchronous reaction. ”

"Ideology" is the leading force in the evolution and development of all things in the universe, so "everything has a spirit", which means that "everything has consciousness", and no matter how big or small things in the universe, they have their own ideology. If all things in the universe have their own ideological consciousness, and the "ideological consciousness" determines the evolution and development of the entire universe, then it also shows that all the ideological consciousness of all things in the universe does not exist independently, but is interconnected, and is related to each other through the relationship of "quantum entanglement". It is precisely because of this that there will be the "Hundred Monkey Effect", the "Law of One", and the existence of the "electrocardiogram" phenomenon that makes us feel incredible. ”

"Huanyu is a huge repository of information that connects countless branch libraries, and I'm glad I have free access to it. The old man seemed to be muttering to himself, looking at the full moon stupidly, and finished saying this.

Wu Lang heard it in his ears, but it was like a thunderbolt roaring in his head, his shocked expression was indescribable, and he looked at his father blankly, his body trembling slightly......

After a long time, the old man said softly: "All the ideologies of all things in the universe are linked, and the communication and interconnection between them all lead to a general ideological database, just like all the data input by a computer will eventually converge to the central processing unit for information processing. In the same way, everyone's ideology is not connected with the ideology of the general database all the time, interacting, and transmitting information. It is precisely because of the existence of the total database ideology that the individual ideologies of all things in the universe can be connected to each other through the "total database ideology", and the synchronous "telepathy" phenomenon like quantum entanglement can be presented. It is precisely because all things in the universe, no matter how big or small, exist, and their own ideology. The reason why there is a quantum entanglement relationship between "entangled particle pairs" is precisely because their ideologies are connected to the ideology of the total database, so through the medium guidance of the ideology of the aggregate database, they will naturally be connected with all the ideologies of all things in the universe, so that they can synchronously perceive the changes in each other's states. And this inadvertently also explains the reason why "all things are one" that is repeatedly emphasized in the "Law of One", and also explains the idea of "all things in one life", and for some reason, the connection with the ideology of the general database is severed, which will lead to the inability to connect with each other, and the seemingly entangled relationship does not exist. The ideology of all things in the universe comes from the ideology of the general database of the universe, and it comes from the collection of individual consciousness of all things in the universe. ”

"Knowledge has existed for a long time, we came to this world just to learn those knowledge, which we have forgotten, all things in the universe, whether macrocosm or microcosm, are not definite existences, but are in a superposition state of various possibilities, which can be changed at any time, and even our memories can be changed together, and everything is uncertain......"

After finishing speaking, the old man stared at the full moon for a long time, and without saying a word, he exhaled a long breath, and a little crystal object filled the entire eye socket, but not a drop fell......
