Chapter 118: There is a Tiger in the Heart
Back at school, it was mid-May, and Zhu Yan and the others immediately plunged into intense revision and preparation for the exam. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Due to the dissolution of the elite 5 class, Zhu Yan was inserted into the 93 class, Chen Lan was in the 92 class, and the other six classmates were also inserted into the four classes of the ninth grade. Considering the shortage of teachers, Ms. Chen and Mrs. Fang were transferred back to the front line of teaching and served as Chinese and mathematics teachers in Class 91 and Class 92.
The matter of cultivation has come to an end in the school, and now the whole school is immersed in the atmosphere of sprinting before the high school entrance examination. The propaganda box at the school gate is also pasted with the ranking of the mock exam in May, and the blackboard newspapers of each class in the ninth grade are also full of various slogans related to the high school entrance examination.
For Zhu Yan and them, although they went out for two weeks, they actually did not put their studies on hold. On the one hand, it is true that during this period of time, in addition to their cultivation and labor, they have not left behind the review work of various subjects. On the other hand, the cultivation has made their memory ability and thinking quality reach an unprecedented height, and their understanding and grasp of knowledge points are more accurate and easier, so the learning efficiency is not comparable to other students.
During this time, Zhu Yan studied his own sea of knowledge, looking for the reason why cultivation can enhance memory and thinking quality, not only to find a theoretical basis for his own cultivation, but also to lay the foundation for cracking the genetic code of the human body.
In his view, the sea of human consciousness is the sea of consciousness, which is actually the sum of life information, which includes two parts: the conscious and the subconscious. Conscious consciousness is the part of consciousness that people can recall, generally recording the more important or impressive part of the memory in the process of growing up, and knowledge and experience will also become a part of conscious consciousness if it is reproduced and used regularly.
Correspondingly, an event or experience that a person has experienced becomes part of the subconscious mind if it cannot be recalled. In the human life experience, there are many insignificant life episodes or emotions, which are often gradually forgotten with the passage of time. But information is never lost, these life information is hidden deep in the depths of memory, it is generally difficult to be picked up again, unless it is stimulated by specific information will be awakened, these hidden memories are the subconscious.
Psychologist Sigmund Freud believed that the psychological structure of human beings is divided into three levels, namely conscious, preconscious and unconscious, and the unconscious is also known as the subconscious. He believes that consciousness is the part of the mind that is related to direct perception, that the preconscious is the part of the mind that can be recalled from the unconscious between the conscious and the unconscious, and that the unconscious is the part of the mind that includes the primitive impulses and various instincts of the individual and the yuwang generated by this instinct, but is suppressed by customs and morals to the point that the threshold of consciousness is not understood.
Freud's student Jung further developed the theory of the unconscious, arguing that personality consists of the conscious, the individual subconscious, and the collective unconscious. Consciousness is the top layer of the personality structure, the part of the mind that can be perceived; The individual subconscious is the second layer of personality, which is the surface part of the subconscious, including all forgotten memories, perceptions and repressed experiences, as well as dreams and illusions that belong to the individual nature, which can enter the consciousness; The collective subconscious is the lowest part of the personality structure, which is the sediment accumulated by human beings over a long period of historical evolution, including the way humans move and the genetic traces in the structure of the human brain, such as the fear of darkness.
Freud and Jung's theory of the unconscious mind is very subversive of ordinary people's cognition, because the primitive impulses and instincts they call human beings are not the product of man's own life experience, but have been deposited in the long historical evolution of human beings, that is, inherited from his human ancestors and even animal ancestors.
This means that the fate of a person may be quite determined, because before he is born, the part of the information that he subconsciously inherits from his ancestors is already determined, and this genetic information not only affects his special traits as a living being, but also affects the development of his self-consciousness.
In Buddhism, there is the theory of karma, which holds that a person's life is short, but the karma of death does not disappear. The causes he planted in this life will be repaid more or less, sooner or later, in his descendants, and in his future lives.
This theory of karma goes one step further than Freud and Jung's theories, arguing that the experience of life in the human subconscious is inherited not only from his ancestors, but also from the reincarnated soul.
Zhu Yan didn't know which of these claims was more accurate, but scientifically speaking, Freud's and Jung's theory of subconscious inheritance made sense, which involved problems of DNA and genes. And according to his spiritual experience, the Buddhist theory of reincarnation is not necessarily unreasonable, because life information is also a kind of vitality, and it does not necessarily have to be transmitted through genetic material. For example, the fragments of information he received in the Changbai Valley and on the plane were likely to come from the residual consciousness of some of the deceased.
But in any case, there is no doubt that the quality of people's memory ability and thinking quality is closely related to the accumulation and use of knowledge and experience in the sea of knowledge. If the sea of human consciousness is compared to a library, the manifest consciousness is the library on the first floor, and ordinary people can enter and exit to inquire about it. The subconscious mind is the library on the second or third floor, which is generally not open to the public, and can only be applied for entry under special circumstances.
A person's knowledge and ability depend not only on the amount of books in this library in his mind, but also on his ability to acquire knowledge from it. For ordinary people, to improve their memory ability and knowledge level, they can only start from the library on the first floor.
For example, on the premise of collecting as many good books as possible and as completely as possible, the books in it are also classified and sorted, each book is numbered, and a search table corresponding to the number and location is made. At the same time, it is necessary to search and use it frequently, so that practice makes perfect, and it can be quickly found according to the title number. In addition, a variety of search methods can also be established, such as looking up a Chinese character from the dictionary, which can be searched with pinyin, radical strokes, and four-corner numbers.
For most students at Sanshan Middle School, the so-called review for the high school entrance examination is nothing more than the above processes. Listening carefully to each lesson and mastering every knowledge point is the process of adding new "books" to the "library". When it comes to the review stage, it is necessary to reorganize all the knowledge points and establish a knowledge system, which is the process of checking the number of "books". And constantly doing the problem, that is, the process of repeatedly searching for and using the "book" until practice makes perfect. As for connecting knowledge points from multiple perspectives, one problem with multiple solutions, and variant application, that is, to establish a variety of retrieval methods, even if you can't remember a certain retrieval method, you can try another one.
For ordinary people, the so-called "diligence can make up for clumsiness" is nothing more than that. For the practitioners, the more fundamental change is at the technical level, if ordinary people rely on paper search forms to find books, then monks search for books through electronic searches.
Cultivation improves the channels for the flow of information in the monks' bodies, allowing them to interact with information in their spiritual consciousness at a high speed and smoothly, and their ability to collect and extract information will naturally be enhanced, and the learning effect will also be improved.
In the previous stage, Zhu Yan led the elite fifth class students to engage in cultivation, not to abandon their studies, but to "sharpen knives and cut wood". Facts have also shown that the benefits of this kind of technological innovation are far from being comparable to ordinary diligence, but unfortunately this matter is abandoned halfway.
In fact, the benefits of cultivation do not stop there, but also open a channel to the "library" on the second or even third floor. The monk enters a meditative state, and while repairing and unblocking the channels of information in the conscious mind, he also quietly opens the channel to the subconscious, and this is different from the passive opening in the sleeping state.
Generally speaking, the conscious activities of people when they are awake will suppress the extraction of subconscious information, so people cannot clearly remember the memories of their ancestors or past lives, and at most they can only have a vague impression. For example, someone goes to a place they've never been to before, but suddenly the place feels familiar, as if they've been here before. This psychological condition is called "jamaisvu" in French, which translates to "déjà vu" or "hallucinatory memory", and it has been reported that two-thirds of adults have experienced it at least once.
This phenomenon is actually the stimulation of a certain memory in the subconscious, and the condition of stimulation is the scene stimulation. However, this kind of temporary memory stimulation is generally vague and unstable, and it is impossible to extract exact memory information from it, and at most it can only bring back some specific emotions or inspirations.
When people's explicit activities gradually fade, the information in the subconscious will quietly emerge, but most of them are still fragments of memory, time and space are reversed, disorganized, and randomly grafted together, as is the case with dreams.
The scenes that people see in dreams are usually subconscious information combinations, which hide some specific information, but it is often difficult to interpret because of the confusion of logic and vague information.
In his book "The Interpretation of Dreams", Freud proposed that dreams are the fulfillment of a certain desire, or even the embodiment of instinct, which comes from the subconscious of people. Some people also propose that some ** in people's subconscious, which cannot be satisfied in reality, is reflected in dreams, which reflects the contradiction between people's conscious and subconscious.
Both of these statements are actually the same, pointing out that dreams are a reflection of subconscious information, and that there is a conflict between the information in the subconscious and the subjective consciousness of the person. If the subconscious reflects a primitive impulse and **, then man's subjective consciousness is the product of civilization and education, which always inhibits man's primitive ** and makes a conflict between the two.
The English poet Sigriff Sassoon has a classic poem: "There is a tiger in the heart, and a rose is sniffed." It is said that there are two sides to human nature, and the "tiger" in the subconscious is the embodiment of people's primitiveness, but civilization and education teach people to "smell roses".
Of course, the subconscious is not only the primitive instinct of animal ancestors, but also the vast amount of information accumulated in the course of human history, which is an immeasurable treasure for everyone.
For ordinary people, these riches are like "books" locked in the depths, which are generally impossible to capture, and at most they can only wake up and think about them occasionally. Only a very small number of people are born with the knowledge of the subconscious, and this genius will eventually gradually disappear as they grow older and with the enhancement of the suppression of the subconscious by the conscious. For example, Fang Zhongyong, written by Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty, was a prodigy who was born to recite poetry, and he later became obscure without studying. Fang Zhongyong's genius may come from the subconscious knowledge inheritance.
But practitioners are different, they can actively awaken those memories that are awakened in the subconscious, and the reason why they can open the door to the subconscious mind is that one is to suppress the activities of the conscious mind through cultivation, and the other is to loosen the genetic code through constant communication.
Whether it is Buddhism or Taoism, the practice texts all emphasize the need to "break the attachment" and "enter the void", that is, you must be able to let go of the distracting thoughts of the world, so that the mind can enter the state of "to the void and keep quiet", then the "great wisdom" will naturally enter your heart. This kind of "great wisdom" is actually the information that enters the conscious consciousness from the subconscious, or the information that enters the subconscious and the conscious mind from the outside world, which can expand people's experience and knowledge thousands of times, and naturally can bring wisdom to people.
In recent decades, a new kind of parapsychology called hypnosis has emerged in the West, which can awaken the subconscious memory of the subject through hypnosis. It is said that through this means, people have learned some unsolved mysteries in past history, including even the secrets of prehistoric civilizations.
Cultivation, on the other hand, is a process of subtle and gradual improvement, starting with just a crack, then a water mill to widen the crack into a narrow slit, and finally allowing information to enter and exit freely. In the legendary Atlantean civilization, the so-called spiritual ascension and the so-called brain development actually refer to the process of continuous cracking of the genetic code.
Zhu Yan didn't know what would be ushered in after opening that hidden door. But whether it is "Tiger" or "Great Wisdom", he is fearless.
