Chapter 6: Her Way

Recent lessons,

The old gentleman is talking about the I Ching, and today he is about to talk about the part of the operation law of the Heavenly Dao.

"The way of heaven is not far away, the way has also moved repeatedly, the change is not lived, the six voids in the circulation, the impermanence up and down, the rigidity and softness are easy, not the classics, only the change is adaptable. ”

This means that when things change in the world, there is permanence, and there is permanence. The way of heaven is not centered in this kind of change, showing the unchanging law of permanence, and in this permanence, it expresses the mutable law that is only suitable for change.

This kind of law is the law of the operation of the Heavenly Dao. ”

The old gentleman smiled and said,

"You should know that everything in this world is changing all the time, and the only thing that remains unchanged is the law of heaven itself, so all the changes in the world must follow the law of the operation of heaven. ”

"Sir, what about us cultivators?"

A disciple asked,

The old gentleman replied to him with a smile,

"Cultivators also come from mortals, human beings, for the chief of all spirits, is a part of all things under the way of heaven, naturally there is no difference, since the law of heaven itself remains unchanged, then people should follow the way of heaven, do not go against the norm of heaven, adapt to the times, so that it can be maintained for a long time. ”

Wen Xuening, who was strongly asked by Wen Shu to listen carefully to the class, bit the brush shaft, and when she heard the words of the Heavenly Dao, she couldn't help but think of the scene of countless great powers competing to fall under the pressure of the Heavenly Dao in the inheritance she had obtained, and she couldn't help but shudder.

"Even if it is such a powerful existence, it still can't resist the Heavenly Dao, and in the end it can only disappear between heaven and earth......

When she had doubts, she asked, "Sir, if the Heavenly Dao is going to kill me in the future, will I also follow the Heavenly Dao?"

The old gentleman was a little strange, "If you don't violate the Heavenly Dao, how can the Heavenly Dao kill you?"

"Sir, you also said in the last class that we monks who practice against the heavens have a hard path in the first place, and we must firmly remember that "my life is up to me, not by heaven" must not easily define our own path. In this case, if it is time to attain the Dao and ascend, and the Heavenly Dao rains down a thunderstorm, if I can't resist it, does it mean that I am destined to fall, then what is the purpose of my hard cultivation for thousands of years?"

Wen Comfort, who was on the side, spoke out for Wen Xuening in his heart,

"Hey, you're thinking long-term,"

The old gentleman was very pleased to see that she had listened carefully in the last lesson, and replied,

"As the saying goes, human law and earth, earth law and heaven, heaven law and Tao, Tao law and nature, our practice is originally to imitate the laws of heaven and earth, so heaven and earth can last for a long time, because they are not self-generated, so they can live forever. It means that heaven and earth are lifeless and imperishable, so they can last for a long time, even if they are neither born nor dead.

How can you be sure that when a cultivator dies, he will completely disappear between heaven and earth, perhaps, he has just changed his way of existence. ”

"You should know that our mortal cultivation can be described as changing one's life against the sky, not to mention that the road to enlightenment is long and long, and it has rarely been touched by people for tens of thousands of years, but you don't want to, the reason why heaven and earth have sent down thunder may not be because there is no reason for it!

When we practice practice, we look like going against the sky, changing the age, eliminating disasters, practicing the extreme, having the ability to sweep mountains and seas, opening the heavens and moving the earth, doing such a violation of the norm, I take it for granted that I will be punished by the way of heaven.

However, why is this a punishment, and if it is understood as a test from the Heavenly Dao, will it become more reasonable?

Everything in this world has a reason for its existence, we are under the Heavenly Dao, and in the Heavenly Dao, we are a part of all things in the world, since the Heavenly Dao acquiesces to our cultivation, our existence is in line with the laws of the operation of the Heavenly Dao, and there are a few people who have ascended to the Dao throughout the ages!

This also proves that if you can pass the level of the Heavenly Dao assessment, it will recognize your existence, and if you can't pass, it means that you are still shallow. ”

"Sir, are you saying that in fact, cultivators don't say anything against the heavens at all?" asked a student.

"There is no way to go against the sky, only people who go against the sky, this, to ask your heart, your way. ”

The old gentleman touched his beard and said with a smile,

The students asked a few more questions.

The old gentleman patiently explained them one by one, and finally even threw the books in his hands to them, telling them to carefully read the notes they had noted.

He looked at everyone with a kind and kind face.

Some people are reading, some people are thoughtful, Wen Xuening frowned and didn't know what she was thinking,

Wen Shu took the brush and took the class notes on the paper seriously.

I couldn't help nodding in my heart,

"They're all good boys. ”

Wen Shu took notes while pondering the meaning of what Mr. Fang Cai said, she actually didn't fully agree with the old man's explanation in her heart,

There are thousands of avenues, everyone has their own way to cultivate, and her way is the way I want to be free.

Whether it is cultivation or mortals, the so-called immortality is nothing more than the desire to disappear in heaven and earth out of one's own unwillingness, if a person loses his desire and becomes desireless, just like the wind blowing in his ears, then what is the difference between the meaning of her existence and the ethereal sky and endless ocean.

The so-called longevity with the sky is just to add a piece of armor from the way of heaven that is transformed by people.

The way of heaven is nothing more than turning a person into a part of himself, so that this person is no longer a human being, but the way of heaven.

Some people have feelings for their family and country, some people have the world in their hearts, and some people do a lot of evil, Wen Shu doesn't care about anything, she only cares about herself.

Life is life, death is death, if she doesn't die, she will live as she wants, if she dies, it will be a hundred, so that after death, whether she will become an invisible part of heaven and earth is not important to Wen Shu.

But for this old gentleman, Wen Shu respects him from the bottom of his heart.

Not to mention the true identity of the old man, but his willingness to teach the disciples in the clan study without reservation, treating all disciples equally, and teaching each other is very respectable.

Every time it was time for this gentleman to go to class, Wen Shu was willing to play a twelve-point spirit, even if he didn't understand sometimes, he had to record every word of the gentleman word by word.

Knowing the plot, she understands that the old gentleman's class is less than one time in the last class.......

Don't look at the gentleman's energy at the moment, in fact, he has already reached the point of running out of oil and running out of lamps, and in just a few days after that, he will go to the west.

The old gentleman has a very good attitude, and when he is dying, he still thinks that he can teach the children in the family for a while, which is also the most important thing he can do for the family in his opinion.

The most important wealth of a family is never those elixir treasures, but people, these children who are growing up!

As long as there are still people in a family, the inheritance is there, as long as the young people in the family can be taught well, the family is not afraid of no future!
