115 Why was it hindered?
"Oh, I understand that if you want to be led to the underworld by 'black and white impermanence', you must first fundamentally eliminate all the 'bad thoughts' in your heart! Right? I suddenly sighed, and at the same time, I was secretly relieved, because I knew that I was not the kind of bad person who "had bad intentions".
"Well, that's good." The father-in-law of the land approved, and then changed the conversation and said, "But in addition, there are many people who cannot be led after death. β
"No, it won't. Is there still a rule? There are not many people with bad intentions in this society now. If there are any more restrictions, doesn't that mean that it is not easy to go to the underworld? "I was completely shocked, really!
"Hehe, it's actually like doing math problems, it's easy for some people, but it's hard for others. This is the opposite of the easy. Perhaps, it seems difficult to you, but in our opinion, it couldn't be easier. After the father-in-law of the land saw the unkind gaze cast by the mother-in-law of the land, he had to immediately forcibly suppress the emotion in his heart. While lamenting aggrieved in his heart, "It's not easy for me to catch someone who can speak freely", the father-in-law of the land also changed his words very familiarly: "Okay, okay, don't talk nonsense." Let's get down to business. It all started from the beginning. In addition to the ghosts who are 'great evil' and 'can't suppress the surging of evil hearts', there are many other ghosts who have also caused great damage to the underworld. β
"Unlikely, right? I really can't figure out what kind of ghosts could wreak havoc on the underworld. I asked, confused.
"Alas, the culprit is the obsession and greed!" The father-in-law of the land said with infinite emotion.
"Obsession? Greed? What kind of ghost is this? How come I've never heard of it? I asked, confused.
"No, obsession and greed are not ghosts! They belong to a type of consciousness. When the land father-in-law heard this, he immediately corrected him.
"Is it a consciousness? Could it be that consciousness can also have a direct destructive effect on the world? "I was even more puzzled.
"Consciousness certainly can't have a direct destructive effect. However, just like in your world, human behavior is governed by one's own consciousness, so that under the control of bad consciousness, the actions of some people will cause great danger to others and the whole world. For example, war maniacs such as Hitler, under the domination of bad consciousness, triggered a world war. Because of a few of them, how many people have been displaced, how many have been scattered, and how many have lost their precious lives...... Similarly, the actions of ghosts in the underworld are greatly influenced by the consciousness of past lives. For example, obsession with feelings. Because they have come from the human world to the underworld, they are separated from their relatives and lovers by yin and yang and will never be seen. As time passed, they became more and more unable to endure the torment of their inner feelings. In order to be able to reunite with their loved ones, they will become more and more crazy and even reckless. For example, the obsession with hatred. Some of them are hatreds in life, but they have not been avenged, and they have already come to the underworld; Some are the hatred of death, being killed, being misdiagnosed and dying, etc., and after becoming ghosts, they naturally want to take revenge with their own hands; Some of them died without knowing it, and they died without a whole body, and after they became ghosts, they also hated, hated the unknown and incomplete, hated the person who died without knowing where to hide...... Because of their attachment to hatred, these ghosts will naturally not stay in the underworld with peace of mind......"
"Oh, I remember! The 'kind ghost' who saved me in the hospital probably was left behind because of his nostalgia for his family. And the bloody and confused 'headless ghost' is probably abandoned in the world because of his obsession with hatred. I had been in his ghost for a long time, and I could clearly perceive the strong unwillingness in his heart! "Listening to it, I feel that some of the things that I used to understand in my heart suddenly became clear. However, before I was excited, I realized that I seemed to be very similar to the "good ghost". Do you have no nostalgia for family affection? Can you bear to leave your loved ones forever? No, you can't do it yourself! Could it be that I, like the "good ghosts", will never be able to go to the underworld again? I can't help but shudder at the thought of the brutal scenes of demons fighting and even devouring each other in the hospital.
The father-in-law didn't seem to notice the ugly look that followed me. "Well, the 'good ghost' and the 'headless ghost' you mentioned can also be regarded as two typical examples of obsession. However, obsession corresponds to perseverance, and in fact, there are only a few who can possess this quality. Especially those who are obsessed with feelings, they can be regarded as temperamental. Although they can't go to the underworld because of the rules, in fact, we immortals still have a good impression of them. Whenever possible, we will take care of these ghosts. Under the reminder of the sharp eyes of the mother-in-law of the land, the father-in-law of the land "coughed" twice in embarrassment, and then continued, "I'm sorry, my old man is a few years old after all, and he will talk about it!" In fact, those who are kept out of the gates of hell are more likely to have the 'greed'. As the saying goes, 'the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit', alas, people in the world are ignorant, and it is easy to be confused by appearances! The term 'greed' has a wide range of aspects, including both the tangible material aspects and the intangible spiritual aspects. The most common material aspect is 'greed for money'. As everyone knows, 'money is something outside the body', and if it is accumulated too much, what is the significance? It's a pity, how many people in the world can explore the mystery? Perhaps, most people will laugh at the ignorance of old Grandet. However, how many people in real life can really give up their attachment to money? Perhaps, you are only slightly better than the exaggerated approach of old Grandet. Especially under the influence of the so-called tide of 'reform and opening up', more and more people are now beginning to amass 'wealth' brazenly and even unscrupulously. As everyone knows, the more he does this, the more miserable his life will be in the future. Alas, pathetic, pathetic! Hehe, but these are all self-inflicted, and no one else is to blame! In addition, there is also the ...... of 'greedy tongue'" Speaking of this, the expression of the father-in-law of the land suddenly became strange, "Of course, our taste of food today is just an appreciation of the beautiful taste, and it is far from reaching the Cheng dΓΉ of 'greed'!" β
