Chapter 113: Promotion Assessment
The lack of any foundation for the cultivation of food righteousness is Lin Su's weakness, but having a food cell and being strong is his greatest strength. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The control of his body allowed Lin Su to constantly correct himself according to the movements of the acting teacher, and after practicing for a long time, his movement standard had reached about two-thirds of that of the other members.
The acting teacher was very satisfied with Lin Su's progress, and Lin Su was the most savvy student he had ever met since he taught.
After practicing basic etiquette for a long time, it was time for dinner, and Lin Su was called over by the acting teacher, and it was only at this time that Lin Su knew that the name of the acting teacher was Pompei.
"This is your dormitory in Shilin Temple from now on, with your practice clothes at the head of the bed, and you will wear the same clothes as everyone else from tomorrow. ”
Pompei introduced to Lin Su the things that he needed to pay attention to when practicing in Shilin Temple, including the stage assessment that Lin Su was most concerned about.
In Shilin Temple, the practice assessment of food righteousness is divided into three stages: upper, middle and lower, and only after passing the assessment of the lower stage can you start the next stage of practice.
Only by passing the assessment of the superior Shiyi can you have the opportunity to meet the Huiyi teacher, so as to come into contact with the treasure of the Shilin Temple - the soap bubble fruit.
After dinner, Lin Su returned to his room, and the day's practice was over.
In fact, for students who are still in the lower stage, the daily practice is very simple, just repeating the most basic postures constantly. When they enter the intermediate stage, they will be exposed to other forms of practice, and at that time, even eating will be added to the test of practice.
When he slept until five o'clock in the morning, Lin Su was awakened by the deafening sound of gongs. Quickly putting on his practice clothes, Lin Su came to the hall.
The other students were already seated here, and Lin Su also joined in the meditation. A new day at Shilin Temple begins in the midst of food meditation.
The so-called food meditation is a state of mind preparation exercise to express gratitude for food, first to calm one's state of mind, and then to listen to one's own life.
"The purpose of doing food meditation is to allow you to condense your gratitude for food. Thanksgiving for 'food' means gratitude for 'life', both one's own life and all other lives. "The process of eating is the process of depriving life, and you have to be respectful of the other beings that are integrated into your body. ”
"Gratitude to all things is the foundation of food righteousness, and always sincerely and honestly showing gratitude to all in the world is the purpose of your practice of food meditation. ”
Doing food meditation does not mean entering the state of selflessness, the so-called state of "desirelessness" only means that you want to achieve a state of "nothingness", which is also a distracting state in the meaning of food.
The human mind is extremely complex and unpredictable, and it is very difficult for a person to easily control his fingers but not his own thoughts, and it is very difficult to express a single emotion of gratitude.
Lin Su is not without gratitude for the ingredients, he almost starved to death just after crossing over, and he has always hidden his gratitude for the ingredients in the depths of his heart. He was able to mobilize this emotion of gratitude, but he could not guarantee that there were no other thoughts in his emotion.
For students at the lower level, there is no need to think about the effect of eating meditation, this morning exercise is actually preparing them for the next stage of their practice.
After the meditation, we will have breakfast and then start a new day of ritual practice.
Lin Su's seven-day practice of closing palms and then saluting, after seven days of continuous correction, his basic etiquette movements have become as standard as other students.
At this time, the acting teacher of Pompei announced the beginning of the assessment for promotion to the intermediate stage.
All the students lined up and came to a courtyard, empty with only bare walls and a few large clumps of cactus.
"The correct posture is very important for the sake of food, and if you want to enter the intermediate stage of practice, you have to master the correct posture, you look carefully. ”
Pompei's acting teacher said as he walked over to a ball of cactus, "I want to give thanks to all the ingredients in the world, and I'm going." Pompeii said as he made a very standard gesture of clasping his hands and saluting.
Suddenly, the cactus ball shot out a large number of spikes and brushed past Pompeiy, and the spikes that shot out of it plunged into the opposite wall.
It was only at this time that everyone noticed that the surrounding walls were covered with small holes the thickness of fingers, and there was a clear blank pattern in the middle of the dense holes.
"See what I just demonstrated, and that's what you're going to do next. In front of these thankful cactus, he made a gesture of clasping his palms and saluting, and there were no scars on his body to pass the assessment. ”
Pompei's tone became very serious: "Thanks to the power of the cactus, you should have all seen it, once there is a problem in this assessment, it is likely to be life-threatening, people who are not confident in their basic posture must not be reckless, you can continue to practice in the department for a period of time." ”
The dense holes in the wall really scared many students, their bodies were not as strong as the walls, and if they were hit by the thorns of the cactus, they would definitely leave a transparent hole.
After ten minutes of consideration, 23 people withdrew from the assessment. No one will laugh at them, and everyone has their own choices in the face of life and death trials.
The rest of the people lined up in a row and began to be assessed, and Lin Su was the last one.
The first student stood where Pompeiy had just been, and he performed a standard gassho salute as if he were practicing normally.
Everyone looked at the student intensely, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they confirmed that he had no injuries on his body.
The success of the first person gave the students behind them a lot of confidence, and everyone stepped forward one by one to complete their respective assessments.
Originally, Lin Su thought that this assessment would continue smoothly, but when the seventeenth student was assessed, an accident happened.
The student's basic posture wasn't perfect, a spike flying past his thigh, cutting a long gap. Originally, the matter was not serious, but the student was directly confused by the severe pain. The result of the random movement was that one spike pierced his palm, and another pierced his thigh.
If it weren't for Acting Fan Pompei pulling him out in time, this student would definitely be tied into a hedgehog by the thank you cactus.
