Chapter 1524: Cognition II

Dragon Slayer.

In this world, every different system of power and civilization is often accompanied by a completely different way of understanding the world......

Although the path is different, the final destination is often the same......

That is, no matter what path it takes, the ultimate goal is to gain insight into the most authentic side of the world!

For ordinary people, the vast majority of ordinary people are believers in science, so the way they perceive the world is more from the scientific level, scientists divide the world in a microscopic form, divide all kinds of disciplines into categories, and then study from the most basic place in detail little by little, through guò In this way, people can understand the essence of the world in a scientific way from shallow to deep......

In fact, this is one of the main reasons why science is so widely accepted in reality!

Because compared to religions such as Taoism and Buddhism, or the theory of yin and yang and the five elements of the ancient East, as well as the metaphysical theories of fortune tellers and feng shui masters, science is the easiest thing for people to understand and accept!

Because science divides the rules into very, very meticulous ways, even the most ignorant people are always able to understand the most basic rules, and can have the opportunity to further understand the more advanced rules on the basis of the most basic rules......

That's why science is developing so fast......

Because the process of understanding science is, more often than not, a ladder state of ascension. From elementary school to junior high school to high school to university. Such a step-by-step process. It is enough for the vast majority of educated people to understand the concepts of science and the rules of the operation of some of the most basic things......

In this process, understanding is not very important, as long as you are diligent enough, the vast majority of people can easily graduate from high school, as for whether you can be admitted to university, it depends on personal talent and hard work......

That is, because science is more accessible. Therefore, the vast majority of young people believe in science very much, and many people will disdain the feudal superstitions of some elders, and they don't care much about some conventions and customs......

Science is a relatively scientific way for people to understand the world......

Compared with science, such as metaphysics or some religious doctrines, in fact, in essence, they can also guide people to better understand the world, but compared with science, metaphysics or religious concepts often have a very high threshold for entry. Just to understand the most basic theories, it may take a lot of talent to be able to achieve it......

For example, the so-called wisdom root of Buddhism. A prime example of this!

The ordinary little monks in Buddhism, in fact, do not have too strong ability, they wholeheartedly participate in the Buddha's teachings, for the sophistication of human feelings, for many things, often do not know anything about the existence of zài......

The vast majority of the monks in the temples are far away from the world, they just live their lives, repeating and repeating every day......

If a little monk grows up in a temple, then basically, he will not have much opportunity to come into contact with all kinds of things in society, and he will not receive much scientific education......

The vast majority of Buddhist disciples often receive so-called cause and effect education......

On the surface, such an ascetic life will not make people produce too much wisdom, so in the eyes of many people, monks are a kind of wooden image......

In the eyes of many people, Buddhist theories are often very pedantic and useless......

However, in Buddhism, there will always be great virtuous monks......

In the profession of monk, there is often a very strict polarization......

Ordinary little monks feel as if they don't understand anything and are completely out of society, but those old monks who are profound in Buddhism, although they almost never go down the mountain, but their wisdom is often very high, and a high monk in the real sense often gives people the feeling that they know everything, can do everything, and understand everything......

Such a monk, even if he is the leader of a country, often does not take it lightly, but treats him with courtesy!

This is a kind of expression of the introduction to the practice of Buddhism because of the wisdom root!

Once you get started with the practice of Dharma, you will also generate wisdom just like ordinary people reading books, and they will produce much more efficiency than ordinary people reading books!

However, after the great monks and masters of the Dharma have reached a certain level, they will naturally produce wisdom and naturally understand many truths and knowledge that ordinary people do not understand......

What ordinary people understand, they understand, and what ordinary people don't understand, they will naturally understand......

This is the great wisdom that comes from Buddhist practice......

Yes, great wisdom!

Unlike ordinary people who need to read books to accumulate knowledge little by little, Buddhism pursues a kind of wisdom in a broad sense.

When ordinary people read and study, they are small categories of knowledge, but what they have experienced in Buddhist practice is the great truth of humanity itself......

Science interprets a qiē from the microcosm, while Buddhism is only two words, cause and effect, which can tell the infinite things in the world......

Many people always think that all religions belong to the category of superstition, even the most widespread Buddhism, but in fact, a truly brilliant Buddhist monk can also use the cause and effect theory of Buddhism to explain everything in this world!

The causal cycle itself is a concept that cannot be falsified. So as long as you can justify yourself. Then a complete system can naturally be formed. Buddhist monks, on the other hand, are often able to explain many things that only high-end science can explain through a complete theory of cause and effect......

Of course, there are still very few monks with Huigen in the real sense, so the vast majority of monks, in the eyes of the world, will only leave some images of stubborn and conservative people......

However, no matter what era it is. There will always be some people with wisdom roots in Buddhism, just like the current fat man of Shaolin Temple, which is actually a typical example......

A monk who grew up in Shaolin Temple, the fat man's wisdom is very powerful, almost by his own strength, so that a temple that has almost declined has bloomed with unimaginable brilliance in modern times, such wisdom, such talent, it is almost unimaginable that it will appear in the body of a monk......

But. Such a monk just appeared!

It can also be seen from this that the classics of Buddhism. It can also make people have great wisdom!

All the truths in this world are essentially the same, and the difference is just to see if they can be understood!

Science is a gradual system, so it is often difficult to distinguish between fools and geniuses at the beginning, and only when they are old and their knowledge begins to gradually become difficult to understand, there will be a very obvious difference between scumbags and scholars!

For example, some religious concepts, or some ancient Chinese metaphysics, are often the opposite, because these systems are precisely the ones that need the most talent support, and if you are talented, you will have the qualification to get started, and if you don't have talent, then you won't even have the qualification to get started!

It is because of this, so these such as cultivators or feng shui masters who have a real sense of inheritance are often very, very rare, and there are many people in society who know a lot, and many people are not liars who have no ability, and they understand more or less they understand some theories, but half-hangers are not into the stream after all, fortune-telling this kind of thing, no matter how many tricks, as long as there are a few times that the calculation is not accurate, it is easy to be smashed by someone......

And the real sense of the master, often only contact with a very small number of superiors, is ordinary people can not reach the existence of zài, that is, because of this, so in the eyes of the vast majority of people, the so-called fortune teller Feng Shui Mr. is often nine times out of ten liars and is not credible......

Compared with science, the biggest problem with metaphysics is that it is difficult to be popularized, because people who take this path have too high requirements for talent, that is, because they are high and low, so they naturally become non-mainstream......

In fact, like many ancient classics, although they are difficult to understand......

But almost all people who can understand and have some understanding from it can benefit from life to a greater or lesser extent......

Ancient classics such as the Art of War, such as the Tao Te Ching, such as the Book of Changes, etc., are actually very difficult to read, especially like the Book of Changes, for the vast majority of ordinary people, they are like the Book of Heaven......

The reason why this is so is because the essence of the I Ching is a kind of induction and summary of the rules of the world itself, and the incomparably complex rules are summarized into a small book, which naturally requires extraordinary understanding to be able to truly understand and perceive......

On the contrary, like the concept of science, it is more about constantly splitting the rules, splitting them very small, and then studying them little by little, compared with the former, the latter is undoubtedly easier for people to accept and understand!

In a way, the way in which awakened people and ordinary people directly perceive and understand the rules of the world is actually more like the difference between an arcane and a mage......

In the Western fantasy novels with the background of DND, there is actually a very huge difference between mages and arcanists in the ordinary sense, and this difference is actually the concept of the so-called spell bit and magic net!

Mages in the ordinary sense, their casting method is to extract the spell model from the magic net to form a memory, and then place it in their own spell slot, there is a limit to the number of spells they can release per day, once the spell slot is exhausted, they can only use magic scrolls or magic books to fight, and they must take time out every day to memorize the spells they need, and after each spell is completed, they will forget this spell, until they re-remember, they can continue to use it......

The arcane magician's spell casting is completely independent of the magic net, and will not be limited by the spell bit, they extract the most primitive magic power, that is, because of this, they can still exert 100% of their combat power even in the world without magic nets, and will not be restricted by anything......

On the surface, the Arcanist is more powerful than the Mage, and this is true, but in the vast majority of DND stories, the Arcanist is almost extinct, and the reason is simple......

Because the threshold for an Arcanist is too high for a mage!

Because mages have the storage of magic nets, they can become a spellcaster with a much lower threshold than that of the arcanists, and because of the relationship between the magic net and the spell bit, their spell casting will become easier and more stable, and they are not easy to be interfered with by all kinds of outside worlds, just like ordinary people, although they may not have the talent to learn, but they can at least receive nine years of compulsory education, and when they get to society, they will also have the most basic social common sense and be able to gain a foothold in society......

Arcanists are different, the threshold of the Arcanist is much higher than that of the Mage, and the stability of the spell casting cannot be compared with the Mage who can borrow power from the magic web, of course, instead, once an Arcanist grows up, he will often be much stronger than a mage in the ordinary sense, because their spells are not bound by the magic web, so they can penetrate into many areas that the magic net cannot reach, compared to the way of spell slot casting, the Arcanist's casting method is biased towards the so-called blue bar casting, As long as you have enough mana, you can cast any spell you have mastered in a steady stream without the trouble of forgetting......

In the beginning, it may be easier for mages to grow, but once they do, they are often powerful enough to fight against the gods! (To be continued......)
