Chapter 1016: Family Affection and Dreams (2)
Originally! From the perspective of modern society, most people no longer worry about survival, and most people have solved the problem of food and clothing. But! Because we have dreams, we are kidnapped to the wheel of dreams, chasing too many dreams, saying that we want to achieve our own lives. Outcome! We're not happy anymore.
Because there are so many dreams and desires, let us never stop toiling, trying to achieve our dreams and satisfy our desires.
Originally! After solving the problem of food and clothing, we can enjoy life. Outcome! We are constantly working to chase our dreams and satisfy our desires. Or! Trying to realize dreams and satisfy desires through various improper means.
Outcome! Sometimes it's not just about endlessly toiling, it's! Broke the law. Thereby! Go to jail.
That's where dreams come in.
Of course! This is the fault of those who dream unnecessarily, dream wrongly, and desire.
Not all dreams are in trouble, don't bite the word. Some dreams are needed, for example! The dream of how to keep yourself alive, the dream of how to make your life better, is needed. All dreams and desires that are conducive to survival are right. And it is not conducive to survival, excessive dreams and desires are all wrong.
Zhuangzi thought for a while, felt very sleepy, and fell asleep with his skull on his pillow.
I don't know how long it took for him to fall asleep again.
The skeleton man came back to life, entered his dreams, and spoke to him.
"Zhuang Zhou! It turns out that you are Zhuang Zhou! Hahaha! Zhuang Zhou! You little baby! You're out of control! You! ”
"Me? Why am I hopeless? Zhuangzi was very unhappy. Because! This skeleton man called him Zhuang Zhou! And call him a little baby! How many years have it been? It's been decades, and no one calls him Zhuang Zhou, let alone Xiaowa. Great Zhou World! Who doesn't know his name Zhuangzi now?
He's the son! It's the Master! Yes sir!
The Skeleton Man changed in an instant, muscles grew on his bones, he became plump, and he became a whole person.
Zhuangzi looked at the changing appearance of the skeleton man, and remembered the "nothing" and "being" in the Taoist mind, which is to internalize nothingness and create something out of nothing.
Seemingly! This person who calls himself Zhuang Zhou should be a master?
When the skeleton turned into a human, its clothes changed out of nothing. Really! This person's clothes are also different. This piece of clothing is not the clothes of the contemporary Chu State and the Song Kingdom, and the style of this body of clothing is not available in contemporary times, it should be the style of hundreds of years ago.
The skeleton turned into an old man with disheveled hair, shaking his head in front of him, like a madman. Zhuangzi knows! This man is not a madman, he should be a very arrogant and arrogant person! Or rather, a self-righteous person.
"You think that dreams are wrong, and some dreams are not to be wanted! Dreams that are conducive to survival should be wanted, and dreams that are not conducive to survival should not be wanted, as if that is the case. But! Is it wrong to think that family affection is different? Are you indulging in family affection, not the same wrong? The skeleton man shook his head and said with his hair swinging.
Zhuangzi asked suspiciously, "You?" How do you know me? What did I just think? You? ”
"Who do you think you are? You? Zhuang Zhou Xiaowa! Do you know who I am? ”
"Who are you?"
"I am your ancestor's teacher!"
"The teacher of the ancestors?"
"Lear asked me! You! You little baby! Just by your virtue! It's still early to enlightenment! What about the heart realm? You? That's it! You! When you enter the heart realm, just wait to be crushed by others! ”
Zhuangzi saw that the other party really had great magical powers, so he had to get serious. Hurry up to the skeleton man, kneel on his knees, and kowtow to him.
"Get up! Get up! I don't accept it! It's useless to bow down! He treated me so disrespectfully and contemptuously before, and now he comes to see me again! Virtue! ……”
The skeleton man shook his head again and scolded Zhuangzi.
"Please sir!" Zhuangzi had to lie on the ground and humbly ask for advice.
Since his mentor Yang Zhu Yuhua ascended, Zhuangzi has really rarely been like this, going to kneel down to a person and humbly ask for advice. Normally, it is others who bow down to him.
"I say! It is very dangerous for you to indulge in family affection! It's not good for your cultivation! Family affection, like dreams, cannot be excessive. Affection that is conducive to survival, we need. Family affection that is not conducive to survival, we can't want it either! ”
"Please explain, Mr.!" Zhuangzi kowtowed.
"Do you need me to explain this? Do you need me to explain this? Do you need me to explain this? ......" The skeleton man was angry and shouted loudly.
"Sir, stop being angry! Sir, stop being angry! Zhuangzi kowtowed again, raised his head, and looked at the skeleton madman.
"You just kicked me, didn't you?" The skull madman said, raising his foot and kicking it towards Zhuangzi's head.
When Zhuangzi saw it, he screamed in fright.
He could see that this skeletal maniac was not to be messed with! This martial art is too powerful, if he kicks it, he may immediately enter the heart realm......
"Ahh ……”
He hurriedly jumped and jumped to the side.
Then! Only then did he realize that everything just now was just a dream.
Zhuangzi broke out in a cold sweat, sat up, and carefully recalled the dream he had just had. He found that he had slept since he saw the human skeleton after dark, and it had been until now. The sun rose in the east, and it was dawn before I woke up from my nightmare.
Other words! Everything that has gone before, including the first time I dreamed, to the time I woke up in my dream to think about the "dream", to the fact that I fell asleep again and had the dream I had just now, was just a dream within a dream.
Last night! He had a dream within a dream!
What puzzled Zhuangzi was: I saw a human skeleton here last night, and now! The human skeleton was gone.
Don't? Didn't see any human skeletons at all last night?
Don't? I've been between dream and reality since last night?
But isn't that right? I remember what I had in my dream last night, huh? It doesn't seem like a dream, it seems like it's really like that?
Don't? I? Do I really have to think about what I know about family affection? Don't? Am I really addicted to family affection?
No! I'm sane! I know how to deal with and treat family affection, and I didn't indulge in it!
Isn't it? If I indulge in it, I will always live in Lingyang Mountain, and I can watch my son every day. Such! I was relieved. Isn't it? Am I gone?
Family affection is needed, but you can't indulge in it! Otherwise! It's painful!
Oh, yes! If I only care about the family relationship with Yang Hu, then? I lost my affection for the other children and grandchildren. But I have affection for all my descendants, right? Am I worried about them?
Don't? Can't you have this kind of concern?
Still is? Tell me? Or is it that my intellect tells me: don't cling to my Yan'er and Gen'er? Isn't that what it means?
I don't have that idea, I have to find them, huh? Oh, yes! I wanted to find them and fulfill my wish. But? I really can't find it, so why don't I give up?
That's not what it means? What does that mean?
Is it about the boundaries of affection?
Don't? Is there a limit to family affection?
Don't? Are we going to be indifferent to our children and grandchildren? Don't? Can you only have affection for your father, mother, spouse, and children? Other people, we can't have affection for them? Still is?
"Can't indulge in it?" What is the meaning?
Do you want us to be able to extricate ourselves from family affection? Can you afford to put it down? Still is? What do you mean?
Don't? I can't cry when I see my son, who I haven't seen for twenty years?
