Chapter Twenty-Nine: Solving the Divine Problem
I saw a book friend asking: 'Cultivation is not based on supernatural powers, why can't it be confirmed by supernatural powers, why can't cultivation of the true cultivation of the Tao be like science, and be revealed to the world?' Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
First of all, in today's world, the science that people think of as science may not be real science, and the cultivation they think may not be real cultivation, for example, what is the word supernatural power? There are many explanations for this, and people with different visions understand it differently, and I don't know very well what the so-called science is.
Some people say that what can be verified by formulas, that can be clearly seen by everyone, and that can be repeated and verified countless times is called science, why? Because this can be copied, it can be used, and it does not need him to use his brain, and he does not need to work hard to crack it by himself, such people will become more and more stupid, because their brains are only in a certain frame, and they will not look for unknown areas, because their intelligence is limited, and they are no longer enough in the scope of the formula, and they dare not look for the world outside the formula.
The so-called vulgar and mediocre people are not really vulgar, but the scope of cognition is limited, for example, the cicada cannot explain to it what winter is, because it cannot see winter in its life course. Ordinary people live in the world, and they don't need to think about philosophical knowledge or explore the meaning of life in their ordinary lives, because what they want is to support their families and pass on their ancestors, and they don't have to think about complicated things in their lives.
People in the world do not have the obligation to study philosophy, but they have the right to learn the truth, and cultivators do not have the obligation to live forever, but they have the right to live forever, and cultivators have no obligation to study philosophy, let alone to spread the truth they have attained, but they have the right to speak, the right to study philosophy, and the right to legend the truth.
You don't have the right to ask a scientist to make public the results of his research, and naturally you don't have the right to ask a cultivator to disclose their understanding of enlightenment, because scientific researchers also have countless unknowns and incomprehensions about their own field, and cultivators also have their own unclear truths. Everyone is pursuing their own truth, they are all perfecting themselves, and they all want to wait for the best truth to appear before telling others, but the best and most perfect truth seems to be in front of them, but it seems that it will never be reached.
The emergence of the so-called science of modern people is precisely the stage in which people descend from the spiritual world to the material world, that is to say, modern scientific theories are only applicable to the material world, and can only be applied to the common material theories, but the root of these theories is the spiritual world.
Modern people have to admit that the world is generally popular with material science thought, that is to say, the world has no longer attached importance to the achievements of civilization in the spiritual world, although modern people like to explore ancient civilizations, and some people yearn for ancient culture, but people who have fallen into the night, how can they understand the face of the sun?
There are even some people who have low intelligence and insufficient intelligence, and cannot understand the profound and profound truths, so they say that the ancients wrote indiscriminately with a hot head, and slandered others for their ignorance without thinking that it was their own shortcomings, and the decline in intelligence and virtue can be seen.
People with a little virtue will respect others, even if they see that others are wrong, if they have to be silent, they will not criticize and slander, but modern people only value their own reputation and status, and want to strive for a high reputation, thinking that this is a glorious thing, stepping on others to raise their own fame, and being complacent in their hearts, all they do is to satisfy their thirst.
All modern scientific theories are inseparable from the wisdom of the ancients, all modern scientific theories are derived from the theories of the ancient sages, under the collapse of the spiritual civilization of the West, the rise of the trend of material pursuit, hundreds of years ago their ancestors trafficked human beings for gold, and the bloody fruits of aggression established the foundation for the growth of modern material science.
Because they have lost their respect for the sages, some people will do whatever it takes, and they can treat other people's lives as if they were a mustard just for their own selfish desires, and what can't they lose for the sake of their own fame and fortune? In those days, they lost the spiritual admonitions of their ancestors, and since then they have been mercenary, and the trust between people has declined little by little, and even after the contract, there are traps, cheats, abductions, and so on, which are already very benevolent and righteous compared to that.
After that bloody era, they began to look for a glamorous coat, kept their mouths shut about their past, said that they were the leaders, and when they could not find their ancestors, they said that they were the descendants of aliens, sinking into the material, and the emptiness of their hearts forced them to find a spiritual sustenance, so they had a coat of shame.
It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, the Chinese sons and daughters of the descendants of the sages of the Tang and Tang dynasties, put aside the spiritual civilization of 5,000 years, and once abandoned, the blood of 5,000 years can't resist the temptation of fame and fortune, sell their ancestors, dig graves, and take ignorance as wisdom, fool their children and grandchildren, for their own selfish desires, kill their parents, harm their children and grandchildren, and die without a place to bury.
Don't say that you have suffered a lot, if you are virtuous, you will be able to live a happy life, only people without virtue will have a heart of resentment, everyone has dug up the graves of their ancestors, and now when they are suffering, they ask their ancestors to save themselves, but they really learned a cheeky skin without shame.
You use the teachings of the sages lightly, and do not establish benevolence, righteousness, faith, and propriety in your own heart, and you burn all the clothes of the sages, and you beg the sages to come out to meet people, are the sages as cheeky as you?
If you are suffering and no one can save you, then you must be at fault, don't say that others do not save you, and you have forgotten your own mistakes, which means that people who do not reflect and do not reflect on themselves can know their mistakes and correct their mistakes?
Many people want to change the lock, the lock is the only one, only the key can be opened, the lock is not made by anyone, the key is made by the person himself, the key is only in each person's own place, you can't find it doesn't mean you don't have it.
The spiritual world is inherently formless, and can only be understood and unspeakable, the world has a material world and a spiritual world, and people also have material and spiritual worlds, and since ancient times, everyone has known that they have a body and mind, the body is visible, and the mind is invisible, and this heart is the spiritual world.
If you have abandoned the search for the mind and have fallen into the material, do you still ask the spiritual world to appear before your eyes like the material world for you to see? If there is a disease, there is medicine, and the material theory can only be used in the material world, and the spiritual theory can only be used in the spiritual world.
The exploration of the spiritual world can only use the introductory method of the spiritual world, so these are two kinds of things, how can they be generalized, we cannot ignore the material world and its theories because we have explored the spiritual world, nor can we ignore the truth of the spiritual world because of the use of material theories.
The spiritual world is the foundation of the material world, and some people don't believe it at first glance, so think about the earth hanging in the air, the tangible matter relying on the invisible air, and your tangible flesh and bones also relying on your invisible heart.
Your spirit is far beyond the scope of your physical body, the physical body of many people is no more than seven or eight feet, while the human mind can be far and infinite, for example, if your body walks a day's journey, you can see it all at a glance, and you can hear sounds far beyond the range of your ears.
For example, fireflies, although the body is small, but the light is infinite, and the human spirit is the same.
And what is the true supernatural power? The so-called change of the gods, the name of the pass, every thought, every thought, every thought,
Magical things, not only superhuman power, whether it is moving mountains and reclamation, or resurrection, all kinds of magical spells, are in the list of supernatural powers, all living beings can not leave God, why, this is the root of heaven and earth, is the Xuanjiamen, is the creation of the book, is one, is the yuan, its image is like the abyss, the name is the valley, the person who will know its meaning, that is, see the god of grain.
If it can be used in this way, why should the sages be born into the world and work hard to educate them; the human body has dandruff, sweat and tears, saliva, and convenience, and the spiritual reason is like the human body, and the material reason is like dandruff, saliva, and human convenience, all of which are dross.
Since ancient times, no true immortal dared to sell knowledge, why is true knowledge owned by heaven and earth, and everyone has its own, and knowledge cannot be sold, why is it that it is not expensive or cheap, and all people in the world sell knowledge, thinking that it is precious, so they sell gold and silver, and they think that their knowledge is equivalent to gold and silver, and it is like this in the dross world.
In the past, those who have attained the Tao have refused to say much, not because they think they are precious and do not say anything, but they regard them as dung and ordinary people, and think that they are dross, so they do not say anything, why is it that the words of the virtuous people will benefit others, and if they are not beneficial to others, they are all silent, and it is ridiculous for the people in the world to think that the Taoists cherish themselves and do not say anything.
The principle of the Great Dao, whether it is the spiritual world or the material world, is contained in the body and mind of all people, and all people have their own knowledge, but all people are confused and rushing, tired of their spirits, unwilling to be quiet, self-abandoning true virtue, seeking skin in vain, despicable mind, as for suffering, those who have attained the Tao, seeing all people, there is no difference between them and them, self-owned, they have their own, they do not speak, they are silent, everyone understands, they are self-satisfied, they are self-evident, the teaching of the name is like the teaching of the saint who does not speak.
Ode:
There is nothing in the world, and mediocrity disturbs themselves, first abandoning morality, and then seeking truth,
For example, kings, who forsake their kingdoms and seek thrones, if they turn men upside down, how can they get them?
If you can be ashamed, shame will be saved,
If there is no shame, how can he be a self-helper, and if a man does not save himself, why should he ask for anything?
With dross knowledge, looking for the true essence, not respecting the true knowledge, knowing that you can't ask for it,
It is to abandon knowledge, to take ignorance as me, to be respectful in advance, and to tolerate virtue,
The artistic conception of the pure god can be found in the non-material, the spirit of the body and mind changes, and the non-persistent can learn,
All things are life and death, yin and yang know with one mind, there is no truth and no falsehood, and the change is true and false,
All kinds of cultivation are fundamentally in cultivating virtue, and the flies and dogs will not be able to understand it.
With a frank heart, Mo Sheng is greedy, and the Great Grain God Sect is like a deep existence.
On the fifth day of the sixth month of the year of Bingshen, I will explain the supernatural affairs, and I will talk about it briefly.
