Chapter 08 Awakening Self-Awareness
Bright like an honest businessman, he began to appear on time again, and continued to operate the earth...
When looking at the child who was still asleep, his delicate and pale face, in the morning light full of the house, was like a flower bud waiting to be developed, immersed in the crystal clear tin dewdrops, so that the whole room was full of vitality...
In the melody full of classical charm, I have already put the audio I made last night with a musical background to the ears of my children!
Maybe others will find it strange that the child has not woken up early in the morning, listen to music and listen to audio, what kind of knowledge is this? Does it make sense?
Yes, it is normal to have such doubts, in fact, if from the perspective of conventional thinking, it is actually true!
However, on the other hand, children are relatively in an unconventional state, and they can be reluctantly classified as abnormal, so correspondingly, in the eyes of the so-called normal people and normal thinking, the unconventional and abnormal methods they see may be precisely the most conventional and normal and even the most effective way to solve children's problems...
Because many people are accustomed to seeing the world with the naked eye, it is difficult for them to see the world beyond the limitations of the naked eye. Because seeing the world with the naked eye is like everything seen through a telescope, no matter how good the eyesight is, no matter how sophisticated the telescope's function is, it is difficult to surpass their own limitations...
And the so-called heart sees the world without desire, and the mind is self-purifying. Because only clear and calm water can shine like a mirror, reflecting the image of all things. Because the eye of the mind is nothing, because only the eye of the mind that is void can be like a mirror without dust, without any obstacles, and directly illuminate the essential world...
Because everything in the universe is originally a product of nothingness, only by returning to the power of nothingness can we see everything in the world...
This may seem like an empty truth, but in fact, it is the only way to the truth!
Just like a child listening to audio, it seems useless, but in fact, its sound will affect the corresponding changes in the child's body and mind through the vibration of the frequency all the time, and directly become subconscious information. Even if the child is not awake, it is still the same, but due to the lack of conscious and subconscious support, the degree of effectiveness is different in the physiological sympathy...
The reason why this kind of audio information, which is based on the principle of hypnosis, can produce an effect is mainly because the cells of the body will produce corresponding changes with the frequency of sound vibration. Because, the subconscious mind works twenty-four hours a day, in fact, every cell of the consciousness carrier works. When people are sleeping, the reason why they feel that they have the illusion of suspending communication with the outside world is because the carrier of consciousness plays a corresponding role in consciousness, so that the body and mind are in a state of sleep! Therefore, if in essence, the human body and mind are in constant harmony with external time, but they are in a state of sleep, and their perception is weak as if they are anesthetized. Otherwise, sleep is death.
Therefore, if we look at the principle of hypnosis, then when people are in a state of sleep, it is precisely the subconscious mind that is open to the greatest extent, because in the state of weak thinking consciousness, the body will combine the three consciousnesses to absorb external information to different degrees. So, in theory, human beings can shape their fate into what they imagine. Because each person's primitive consciousness is like a barrel of gasoline distributed in different tanks, but due to the differences in individuals and environments, it is difficult to fully realize the essential shaping theory in practice!
Because the subconscious mind is the essence of the so-called mind, it is the product of the ontological being. That is, the heart. The mind is based on the chemical reaction at the physiological level, which is the result of human conscious perception and confirmation by thinking consciousness. This self-consciousness of the mind, which is perceived by the conscious consciousness, is also illusory. Because, in essence, it is the result of the reaction of one's own physiology and the external world. This phenomenon is also the essence of the ancient sages who believed that man and all things in the universe are one.
In fact, each person is a collection of four mes. A true self is the essence, a present self is the manifest consciousness, a superego is the mental consciousness, and a primordial self is the subconscious! The purpose of Buddhist practice is to return to an ontological true self.
So what does the so-called true self really look like? In fact, it is the self of human beings who can be aware of all existence. It is the self that knows the existence of mental consciousness, the existence of physiological perception, and the ontological self that knows the existence of the ideal superego. Rather than experiencing the three conscious selves that exist in these three selves.
In fact, these three selves are just by-products of knowing everything that is. The sorrow of life is because of the self that treats these three by-products as the true self and clings to it. This is what Buddhism calls the phenomenon of self-grasping arising from ignorance. This is very similar to Taoism's chaotic beginnings and all things come into being, but more logically.
The so-called four meditations and eight concentrations are the self-transcendence and integration of the three consciousnesses. The eight consciousnesses of the five senses, the conscious mind, the subconscious mind, and the thinking consciousness, are no longer subject to the fluctuations of the external environment, and they show a constant state of awareness that hears but does not hear and turns a blind eye. Rather than perception, because perception has a delusional drive.
Awareness, on the other hand, is a state of circumstance that transcends perception, transcends reason, and transcends physiological reactions. This is the realm of a Buddha. Return to the Being, be aware of all things, and be able not to be moved by them. Perception, on the other hand, is a state of conscious perceptual sublimation, which reacts accordingly. This is the main reason why autistic children turn a blind eye and hear without hearing because of the problem of conscious experience!
Therefore, many autistic children, although they can't speak, can't express, can't do many simple things, and are unwilling to learn, they seem to know everything. Because his self is like a mirror that has just been formed, although it can reflect all things, but in reality, just as there is no conscious self, the superego and the subconscious id, which have not yet fully formed that by-product. So not to mention the fusion and sublimation of the three mes...
The first step in Buddhist practice is to obtain the corresponding changes in the tactile function of the five senses through the cultivation of conscious perception, so as to achieve the goal of meditation and liberation from birth and death. However, children with autism have problems with their five senses and tactile senses, which leads to problems in conscious experience, which is equivalent to making it difficult to enter the world. The expansion of this phenomenon is that in reality, many people who are busy every day aim to satisfy and enrich their conscious experience by doing their best to pursue the false self of the subconscious mind. This phenomenon is the reversal of sentient beings, as the Buddha said...
If that's why it's like saying that autistic children don't need to recover? However, the opposite is true. Because according to the Buddha, all dharmas come out of the world, and even if you are a practitioner, you need to enter the world better to achieve the goal of being born. Therefore, autistic children need good rehabilitation in order to integrate into reality and achieve the goal of joining the WTO!
From the perspective of modern science, autism is mainly due to individual differences, and it is difficult to adapt to the external world because of the induction of three major consciousness problems in an environment where the acquired ring is contrary to its differences. A series of problems that lead to limited development and development.
Among these problems, aside from the physiological problems for the time being, the main reason is that the acquired environmental factors lead to the limited development of the child's three major consciousnesses, resulting in self-awareness that is difficult to conform to reality, and many emotional and behavioral problems are manifested. And gradually in the reinforcement to form a vicious circle, affecting the physiological development of development...
Therefore, what I want to do next is to help the child awaken, establish, shape, and conform to the reality of self-consciousness through the confirmation of the five senses and the conscious perception. Because, the five senses and the sense of touch are the conduits to the outer world. Only when children are aware of the external world will they better appreciate the existence of their own existence in the theory of relativity.
In order to adapt to the needs of natural development, the external information will gradually strengthen the corresponding self-consciousness in the laws of nature or the gravitational law of love. This self-consciousness is the inner driving force that is formed in the need to perceive and affirm the existence of the self-individual, and is gradually established in the deepening of the reinforcement, and interacts with the external world...
This experience of self-awareness will effectively induce curiosity and interest in the outside world for children to experience the existence of self in the future. Therefore, it will gradually integrate into reality in a virtuous circle.
This kind of self-awareness, in fact, is what many rehabilitation institutions or autism professionals call proprioception. But this kind of ontological consciousness is, in fact, only a conscious product of the formation of the ontology!
The true essence is actually the Buddha nature that Shakyamuni said, as Lao Tzu said. It's me who can be aware. In reality, the so-called ontology is the perceptual consciousness formed by the tactile sense of the five senses through the conscious perception. This kind of perceptual consciousness is the existence of the three major consciousnesses determined and perceived by the thinking consciousness under the cognitive function.
The vestibular sense is based on the tactile function of the five senses, on the basis of the conscious experience perception formed, and acts on the perceptual imaging function of thinking consciousness.
The difference between these two types of consciousness is that the perceptual function of conscious consciousness is mainly based on emotional experience, while the perceptual function of thinking consciousness is mainly based on imaging. This imaging function of thinking consciousness is the essence of imagination, which is the so-called eye in the sky.
If you want to verify the existence of this function of the eye of the sky, the easiest way is to just close your eyes and punch and see if there are any golden flowers in your eyes...
So, therefore, it is possible to find that the understanding of self-awareness is even more important in helping children build self-awareness...
The establishment or awakening of self-consciousness is, in fact, in essence, to stimulate the conscious experience, awaken and enhance the vestibular sense, and the imaging function formed by the effect of perception is interacting with the three major consciousnesses.
Therefore, these seem to be a bit complicated and sour in theory, but the methods that are effective on the basis of their theories seem extremely simple.
And these methods, in fact, in real life, are that many parents who don't understand have unconsciously done a lot in playing and interacting with their children.
It's just that under normal circumstances, they are just natural parent-child interactions, not conscious treatments or interventions for the purpose of rehabilitation...
One of the easiest ways is to stimulate his sense of autonomy by allowing his child to constantly point out his facial features and forehead in a happy state, and to timely use verbal praise and encouragement. Of course, this method should only be used for children who have normal or acute visual and auditory functions. If it is abnormal, it needs to be adjusted accordingly according to the actual situation of the child.
The process of achieving this effect, from the perspective of modern psychology, belongs to the power of suggestion. From the perspective of qigong principle, when a child points to that part, because of the concentration of attention, it will produce an increase in the amount of qi and blood in the corresponding part, and let the corresponding part increase in the amount of qi and blood, so that its physiologically specific functions are more developed and acute.
Especially in the process when I induce the child to testify to his facial features, when the child points to his forehead, his emotional reaction is very different from that of other parts of the testimony. Because, every time he pointed to his forehead, he would look extraordinarily happy, and often appear more active in a happy smile. But when it comes to other parts, in addition to a sense of accomplishment, it is obviously more task-oriented...
Therefore, if this phenomenon is from the point of view of reasoning, then the only explanation at present is vestibular consciousness or the so-called third eye, because it is based on the effect of psychological suggestion and qigong principles, which leads to a more abundant amount of qi and blood, and affects the improvement of conscious consciousness and thinking consciousness, and exerts the benign interaction between the three major consciousnesses and physiology and each other...
Therefore, in this process of constant repetition, the child's self-awareness is strengthened, and the progress and development of other aspects are naturally linked. For example, at my request, he will take the initiative to point to my facial features and observe my eyes. So I took advantage of this and let him point to my eyes often, and gradually raised his gaze. In this way, while obtaining the instruction to improve, I also used methods such as pointing out his mouth and inducing him to open his mouth and stick out his tongue to promote the development of language...
Then, gradually, on the basis of his original evidence, I continued to point out various parts of my body through him to improve and perfect his self-awareness. At the same time, he also passed this method of pointing out the five senses, which effectively and quickly gave him a clear concept of you and me...
So, in this whole process, because he has a clear prominent reaction to his forehead, I often use a little red eyebrows and looking in the mirror to constantly stimulate and strengthen his vestibular sense, so as to achieve the extension of the overall self-consciousness to the external world, hoping to better lay the foundation for solving the problem of his narrow interests in the future...
All, it seems that the five senses and other methods are actually very simple. But the mechanics behind them are more complex. From the perspective of modern science, it is based on the laws of nature, dialectical thinking and qigong principles of traditional Chinese medicine philosophy, through some corresponding specific measures, to stimulate the potential power of the soul, so that children can achieve self-repair and improvement in the breakthrough. Achieve healthy development of physical and mental integration.
Because, whether in modern psychology, or modern medicine and traditional Chinese medicine theory, or philosophy and religion, it has been proved beyond doubt that the power of the mind can often surprisingly surpass modern common sense, and it is entirely possible to break through the limitations of body and mind and obtain the rehabilitation or shaping of physiological functions.
In fact, throughout the ages, some people have proved this with their own personal experience. Although with the progress of modern science, such facts are also clear and recognized to a certain extent, due to the existence of many objective factors, human cognition of this is still in a relatively vague state.
However, many people may understand that physical and physiological problems can completely affect the mental and psychological state if they pay a little attention. Then, the reverse is also true, the psychological and mental state can also completely affect the corresponding changes in the physiological level of the body...
Because the physiology of the body is the generator of psychology and spirit, and it is also their carrier. The spiritual psychology is the main tool that dominates the physiological behavior of the body. Therefore, the complexity and mutuality between the mental, psychological and physical physiology are essentially one and the same, and the two phases are inseparable...
It is precisely because of this that it is possible to take advantage of the reciprocity of their two phases to achieve a specific desired effect.
