Chapter 69: The Tao and the Buddha
"Alright...... Jia Hua, after you bring it back, don't always touch it with your hands, find a shelf and put it away, and remember not to place it in a sun-exposed place......"
After Tang Xia carried out professional maintenance, she smiled and told Huang Ji some precautions.
Huang Ji ignored the huge amount of information contained in this Buddha's finger bone for the time being, stood up and said with a smile: "No need, I think it's best to keep it here with you." ”
"But ......" Tang Xia wanted to say that this did not comply with the procedure, and the donation also required various review mechanisms.
Of course Huang Ji knew, he just couldn't review it, this Flying Immortal Pattern Inscription Mirror was obtained by him by illegal means, and even his own identity was fake, this thing was not legal at all.
So he preemptively said: "You can store it first, even museums have a mechanism for borrowing collections and exhibitions, don't they?"
"The bronze mirror is kept in your research institute, and you can use it. ”
This bronze mirror is just a tool for Huang Ji, but it is a priceless treasure for the Institute of Archaeology.
Now that he has gotten what he wants to take, he doesn't need the bronze mirror, he just sends it to the research institute, and it will have nothing to do with it in the future.
In the end, he succeeded in convincing Tang Xia to accept the item, and Tang Xia made a simple registration and asked him to leave his contact information and ID number.
In this regard, Huang Ji directly wrote a fake one and said goodbye to Tang Xia with a smile.
When he went downstairs, he saw that most of the security guards had returned, still chatting about the car in the ditch.
Lin Li was not injured, and was expressing his gratitude to the security guard who looked at the door.
Huang Ji didn't step forward, he walked away directly, pretending not to know Lin Li.
He changed his appearance, but Lin Li didn't, and when the research institute couldn't find a 'donor' in the future, it would be easy to find Lin Li.
So if the two don't know each other at all, there's no problem.
Huang Ji walked about a mile, got on the bus, and returned to the hotel.
On the bus, he silently sorted out the origin of the Buddha's bones, and after getting off the bus, he went to the bookstore to buy some Buddhist treatises and brought them back to the hotel to continue his research.
A few hours later, Lin Li returned.
"Big brother, I followed your instructions, and instilled in them that I was driving by alone, and they didn't suspect it, and I waited for them to get off work and invited them to have a meal......"
Lin Li said, but saw Huang Ji unconsciously stroking a huge metal finger, silent in thought.
He didn't bother after thinking about it, and he also practiced on his own.
I have to say that he works very hard, as long as he is idle, he puts his energy on practicing martial arts. He cherished this opportunity, and before he met Huang Ji, he was also addicted to this, but he was always deceived.
Now that he has finally followed Huang Ji and learned the real ability, he is very happy, especially when he practiced for the first time, he showed results, which was a great encouragement to him.
followed Huang Ji even more resolutely, knowing that this was probably the biggest luck in his life.
"The beginning and the end of the song, the song of Boja Ming, Ku'e Dolan Poja, Balani Gaboja, the Falling Pillar Du Pojak, the Lo Si Tan Poja, the Galukua Poja Ming Song, ......"
Suddenly, there was a strange pronunciation from behind him, as if he was saying some incantation.
Lin Li didn't know why, so he looked back and asked, "What, big brother, what are you talking about?"
"Plop!"
I saw Huang Ji roll down from the sofa and faint to the ground!
This sudden change shocked Lin Li.
"Big brother!" Lin Li hurriedly pounced on Huang Ji to help him up, but saw that Huang Ji's face was calm and unconscious.
"Wake up, big brother, what's wrong with you?" Lin Li shook Huang Ji, but he couldn't wake up.
Lin Li hurriedly pinched the middle of the people, but the middle of the people was about to break the skin, and Huang Ji showed no signs of waking up.
"Oh no, what's wrong with this?"
Lin Li picked up Huang Ji on his back, the Buddha's finger slipped from Huang Ji's hand, Lin Li didn't care, he ran out with Huang Ji on his back, and wanted to send him to the hospital.
But as soon as he entered the elevator, Huang Ji shook violently and woke up.
"Eh, big brother, are you awake?" Lin Li said in surprise.
Huang Ji said calmly: "No need to call an ambulance......
He pressed Lin Li's phone to find an ambulance, a familiar scene because it seemed to be the same when they first met.
Lin Li put down Huang Ji and said, "Big brother, are you sick?"
"It's true that sometimes things go wrong when I practice, but not this time, I just dug out the function of this Buddha finger...... You come with me. Huang Ji smiled and returned to the suite.
The two returned to the room, and Huang Ji picked up the Buddha's finger bones on the ground and put them on the coffee table.
He smiled and pointed to the Buddha's finger and said, "Do you know what this is?"
Lin Li said: "You said that it is a product of an alien civilization. ”
"Strictly speaking, yes, it's a Buddha bone finger. However, the assembler is Siddhartha Gautama. Huang Ji said.
Lin Li was taken aback, of course he knew the name, and said, "Shakyamuni?"
Huang Ji nodded and continued, "You're talking about his account type. ”
"Huh?" Lin Li was stunned.
"Shizun VIP account!" Huang Ji smiled mysteriously.
Lin Li asked, "You mean, Shakyamuni is an alien?"
Huang Ji said: "No, he is an earthling, he has just been 'educated' by aliens, and has been designated as the 'World Venerable' of the earth, that is, the civilized Buddha of the earth." ”
"According to the Diamond Sutra, the Buddha said to Siddhartha Gautama: Good man, you should be a Buddha in the next life, called Shakyamuni!"
"Actually, it means that, good boy, you teach the Buddha's thoughts in this life, and after you die and attain Nirvana, you can be a Buddha in your next life, control a Pure Land, and have the title of 'Shakyamuni'. ”
Shakya is the name of Siddhartha, which means the able, the outstanding. Muni also means sage, sage.
In fact, it is called the 'virtuous one'.
Siddhartha was educated by aliens and gained a certain amount of knowledge, but mainly taught philosophy and thought.
It was a powerful cultural trend that originated from some alien civilization group, called Buddha.
This kind of Buddha culture is very prevalent in many interstellar civilizations, of course, it is not as prevalent as the Taoist culture.
Tao and Buddha are the two main public cultural currents in the interstellar world.
Dao, in a word: nature.
All developments that run through the laws of nature are in the search for the Tao.
There are advanced civilizations in the universe and extremely advanced science and technology, but so what? No matter how high they are, they are not as high as the laws of nature, and science itself is the search for the Tao.
Seeking the ultimate truth of the universe and all the natural laws of the universe, the so-called technology, evolution, and philosophy are just gains on the way.
The ultimate goal is to achieve the point of being one with the laws of nature, 'I am the universe' and 'I am the laws of nature', that is, 'the way'.
All scientific and technological researchers are seekers, and the highest state they pursue is 'doing nothing and doing everything'.
The Tao itself does not move, but it is all things that move. All the particles in the universe are changing, and this is called 'for', but the laws of nature have not changed, and it is even formless and substantial, which is called 'nothing'.
So the Tao seems to have done nothing, but it has done everything, it does not change itself, but everything follows it and changes.
This is nature, which is eternal and unchanging, independent and unchanging, silently existing, becoming forever sentient beings, becoming forever all things, and becoming forever the times.
If nature does not move, everything in the universe moves by itself, and it is 'natural'.
This is the Tao of the universe, the embodiment of doing nothing and doing everything.
The highest state of science is to be it, that is, to master the laws of nature.
All intelligent civilizations, seeking development and progress, in fact, pursue this, they also hope that like the universe, everything in the universe revolves around them and runs according to their own rules.
They want to change from 'natural' to 'natural'.
I want to go from being a part of the universe to being an editor of the rules of the universe.
If you want to be in harmony with the Tao, you must first attain the Tao, and to 'attain the Tao' is to know all the natural laws of the universe.
The so-called high-tech civilization is only a one-sided Tao that has learned a part of the laws of nature.
And part of it, you can already do a lot of things, and that's how all the technological products come about.
One of the most cost-effective is the technology that conforms to nature, that is, the weapon of cause and effect.
Climate weapons are one of the laws of cause and effect, using a planet's meteorological system to grasp that ingenious node of nature.
For example, dumping a specific amount of water at a specific time and place on the earth, not too much and not too little, just right, leaving a cause.
Then nature will create a chain reaction with this, and then because of this glass of water, a great storm will be born somewhere on the earth!
This is the butterfly effect, which is to call for wind and rain.
The more a civilization attains enlightenment, the stronger its ability to conform to nature and 'call for wind and rain'.
Knowing the law and making use of the law is something that any civilization will do.
However, this is obviously not 'inaction', no matter how developed a technology is, it also belongs to 'promising'.
The development of science and technology is to 'do less' as much as possible until the ultimate goal is 'do nothing'.
From the complex and crude application of the laws of nature, to the concise and natural use of it, and finally to become it and formulate it.
The same technology is also moving from complexity to convenience, such as computers, from 1970 to the present, but they are all large-scale integrated circuit machines, but its efficiency obviously has improved many times.
This is true for all technologies, the difference is only who has better technology and who knows more. This is both a technological gap.
The earth's civilization has also entered the ranks of seekers, and there are also a lot of scientific and technological developments, but the technologies are still too detouring, the efficiency is too low, and the 'knows' are too few and too unclear, so the scientific and technological level of the earth's civilization is very low.
Artificial rainfall, and climate weapons, are not at all a level, and disturbing a planet's climate, and changing the periodic changes of stars, are not at all a level.
The existing scientific and technological civilization, no matter how high or low, is just on the way to enlightenment.
Once the Tao is attained, once a civilization learns all the natural laws of the universe, it will be infinitely close to the Harmony Dao, and a model of the perfect unification of the universe will be established, and scientific and technological achievements will reach unimaginable levels.
“...... Aliens never bothered to make a war with Earth because they didn't deserve it. ”
"Why use cannons when a problem can be solved directly by floods, and why use a fleet if a problem can be solved directly by changes in the magnetic field of a star?"
"One has a low cost, the other has a high cost, and only when the low cost cannot be solved, the higher civilization will use the high-cost machine. ”
"War is the last resort, it is a continuation of politics, a bottom line rather than an end. Obviously, we are not worthy of an alien civilization to wage war. ”
Huang Ji told Lin Li about the basic values of a cosmic civilization.
There is no doubt that this is the right way, the healthiest trend of thought, the mainstream thought, and the pursuit of the Tao is the orthodox development state of a civilization.
"All technological civilizations are seekers, but what about Buddha? Obviously, there is more than ......one extraterrestrial civilization that has influenced mankind," Lin Li asked.
Huang Ji said: "Dao, although it is the mainstream trend of thought, it is obvious that the interstellar alien civilization cannot have only one thought. ”
"The goal of the road is to ...... It's too high. ”
This is the ultimate goal, and it is far away, so far, none of the countless civilizations in the universe has been able to attain enlightenment......
When Huang Ji had this concept, he directly learned that the number of Dao civilizations in the universe was zero!
Even a civilization that knows all the natural laws of the universe does not exist, let alone a civilization of the Companions, it is also zero!
As for the seeker civilization...... That's an astronomical number, 90 billion!
Huang Ji only felt the vastness of the universe...... And human beings are small.
Of course, he didn't tell Lin Li this, but according to the Buddhist and Taoist thoughts on the earth, he said in a posture that seemed to be pushing backwards: "Anyway, if you think about it, you know that this goal is almost impossible to achieve. So correspondingly, another trend of thought has emerged, and that is the Buddha, that is, the enlightened one. ”
"They used to be seekers, but gradually, they thought that 'there is no shortage of manpower, but the Tao is infinite,' and that 'the Tao cannot be done,' so they became enlightened. ”
What they realize is that although we know the existence of the Great Dao of the Universe and want to become it, this is only an ideal, and it is impossible to achieve it in reality. ”
"The universe can do nothing and do everything, that's the universe. As all sentient beings, intelligent beings who seek the Tao have worked hard for countless years, and it is impossible to 'do nothing', they will always be 'promising', but the difference between less and more. ”
"Therefore, the supreme pursuit of Buddha culture is 'emptiness'. ”
"All laws are empty! All the laws are like dreams and bubbles, like dew and electricity, and should be viewed as such. ”
Lin Li was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Huang Ji smiled: "To put it bluntly, whether it is low-end technology or technology that is infinitely close to the Tao, it is a 'promising' method. Since manpower is poor and inaction, then retreat to the next best!"
"The road to seeking the Tao is a sea of suffering, and the sea of suffering is endless, so turn back to the shore and let go of attachment. ”
"Abandon this stinky skin bag and escape into the 'empty door'. ”
"Make everything into virtual data, create a virtual universe, and consciousness is transferred into it, and we are naturally the rules inside. ”
"In the virtual world, my heart is the way, my mind is reasonable, I speak the law, and I act the arts. ”
"This is a slightly lower level of 'conjunction'. ”
