Dragon Slayer.

In fact, in a certain sense, when a person really devotes his energy and attention to one thing, then he will easily enter a state of selflessness......

The so-called selflessness is to completely ignore one's own existence, completely ignore one's own feelings, and completely forget one's own needs in the process of doing things......

In this state, one does not feel hunger, nor pain, nor does it feel burning or cold......

It's like losing consciousness completely......

Generally speaking, in this case, the vast majority of people are actually in a state similar to a vegetative state, where they are survivors, but their consciousness is completely gone......

In such a state, no matter how severe the pain is, the person will not react at all, and as long as he does not suffer fatal injuries, the body will not die......

However, the biggest difference between a person who has entered a state of selflessness and a vegetative person is that a vegetative person is completely dissipated or falls into a certain deep sleep because of his own consciousness for some reason, just like for a sleeping person, no matter how much great movement is made around this person, if he really sleeps very dead, then he will generally not wake up......

However, when a person enters the state of selflessness, it is a kind of phenomenon that is similar to the opposite of the extreme, because the consciousness is too strong, and when this intensity exceeds a certain limit, people often do not feel the existence of this self-consciousness, which is also a concept similar to detachment......

It's like a person who is selfish to the extreme. In fact, it naturally becomes selfless. Actually, it's the same thing......

It sounds ridiculous. Selfishness to the extreme, why does it become selfless?

But that's exactly what happened!

Just like a person, if he has enough ambition, then he will naturally work hard because of his own desires and ambitions, and there is no doubt that people's ambition itself is a kind of selfishness......

But. If a person's ambition is under the scope of it, then for those who are covered by ambition, the so-called selfishness brought about by this ambition is actually equivalent to becoming a kind of selflessness......

It's like a person with ambition to run a company, maybe externally, the person's ambition and desire for power are great, but when internally, he often regards his company and even the employees in the company as his own property, that is, because of this mentality. So such people are often presented internally. It would be a very wise gesture that he would not allow all kinds of shortcomings in the company, nor would he allow anyone to engage in all kinds of workplace struggles in his company......

The more ambitious people are, the more they tend to show a clear attitude towards public and private, because ambitious people often know very well that if they want to achieve real success, they can't make mistakes anywhere, and if they make any mistakes, they may end up in a situation from which they will never recover......

The biggest difference between selfishness and public heart, in essence, is actually just because of the level, there are fewer people in management, more high-level people, people are more likely to be selfish, and there are more people in management, and there are fewer high-level people at the top, often at this time, the easier it is to overlap between selfishness and public heart......

And like the emperor of a country, in fact, there is often not much selfishness at all, because the country itself belongs to the emperor alone, for the emperor, destroying his own country, itself is a meaningless thing, whether it is from private thoughts, or from the perspective of the emperor's own profession, the emperor must make a country strong, must take into account the interests of every people, for an emperor, every people are equivalent to their own cattle and sheep, Any loss is something they are not willing to bear......

This is a typical combination of selfishness and public heart......

Just like for the middle and lower levels of an enterprise, the money earned by the company and the money earned by themselves are actually two different things, or there is no inevitable causal relationship, even if they help the company earn more money, the real sense can enter their own pockets, but often only a small part of the proportion, that is, because of this, among the middle and lower level employees or managers, the sense of belonging to the company is actually not very strong, that is, because of this, there will be the so-called embezzlement of public funds. Or is it a frequent job hopping......

This is also the so-called selfishness of people, because whether the company is bankrupt or prosperous, for the bottom employees, these changes will have almost no impact on their income, even if the company is going to go bankrupt, they can still have salary income, even if the company's market value has doubled several times, their wages will not change much......

Under such selfishness, people will often easily do things that are contrary to the interests of the company because of their own interests......

On the contrary, if it is a company's senior personnel, then for senior personnel, the situation is completely different, for a senior white-collar worker in the workplace, what they need has long been more than just money, they need enough qualifications and honors to prove their talents, in addition, for senior talents who have reached a certain height in the workplace, their interests and the interests of the company are often completely bound together......

Different from those low-level staff, the top management of an enterprise is often inseparable from an enterprise, and if the company does well, these senior executives will naturally be looked up to by others, recognize their ability, and their income will also rise with the promotion of the enterprise, and may even be able to obtain a part of the company's equity dividends as a reward for their hard work......

And if the company eventually collapses, then they are bound to be affected to a certain extent, for their qualifications and related competence recognition. It's also easy to get a big deal......

This is also a relationship of interest binding. It's because of this kind of loss-take-all. The interests of both prosperity are bound, so the vast majority of corporate executives often rarely make some corrupt moves, for them, the better the company, the better they are......

Unless before that, they have decided to leave the company and find another way. has even packed up his team and is ready to leave, otherwise, he will generally not sell the interests of the original company......

After reaching this stage, in fact, there is a high degree of overlap between public and private intentions, which is good for the enterprise, and often for the good of oneself......

Further, there are the boards of directors in various large enterprises, and the members of the board of directors can be said to be the real owners of the enterprise compared to the manager-level workers. The interests of the company and the interests of these directors are completely linked. As the market value of a company rises, shareholders will be able to have more benefits, and if the company collapses, then directors will be left with nothing......

So for the directors, they are absolutely "public and private" for the enterprise, for them, public and private affairs can be said to be completely melted together, anything, as long as it affects the interests of the company, it must be affecting their own interests, the company, any scandal, is equivalent to a slap in their face, anything that affects the company's reputation, it is equivalent to affecting their own reputation, that is, because of this, so basically, When dealing with the company's personnel, the board of directors is often completely unsympathetic in the true sense, and as long as it affects the interests of the company, they will all be ruthlessly fired by the company......

There is no such thing as a faction, and there is no such thing as a favor......

The more senior the official, the less corrupt he is, and the reason for this is nothing more than a transformation from selfishness to public thought......

It's like the emperor of a country, from the perspective of a country, in fact, such a status is already completely useless, with such a status, and then to think about what to benefit for himself and his descendants, in fact, it is already a real joke, because he doesn't need to think about problems like this at all, and he doesn't need to think about problems like this, even if they don't want to, there will naturally be someone to solve their worries for them, and they have achieved this position, In fact, personal matters have been completely taken out of the consideration of people of this rank......

People who are really in high positions actually have a very light view of personal matters, and what they really care about is that at this time, they have often already transformed from the power struggle above the officialdom to how to make the country prosperous and strong, and how to make the country's economy and status stand among the world powers, which is what they really have to consider at this time, and it is also what they will really care about......

Ordinary officials, perhaps because of the factional relationship, and let go of some officials who may have done a shady thing, but for the emperor, the interests of the country and his own interests have actually been firmly tied together, so for the emperor, anything harmful to the country, any enemy harmful to the country, in fact, must be punished, after reaching this height, for the emperor himself, in fact, there is no so-called factional dispute, Every qiē is for the country, and those who are harmful to the country must be completely eliminated, while those who are beneficial to the country must be cultivated with heart and push the other party to a high position......

In fact, even if it is such a huge greed as He Shen, in fact, it has a very huge contribution to the emperor, if someone tries to rebel, He Shen must also use a qiē means to extinguish the other party as soon as possible, from a certain Cheng dù point of view, between He Shen and Qianlong, it is a typical relationship of loss and loss, He Shen is certainly a big corrupt official, but in fact, the money he collects, but he is not using it himself, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than collecting money for the emperor, and he and Shen themselves are wealth, It's nothing more than a huge silver ticket that the emperor can use at any time......

Not only that, but many times, when He Shen collects money from officials, he is actually not collecting it himself, but collecting money for the emperor. It was just a matter of accepting the loyalty of these officials for the emperor......

And that's because of that. So in fact, Emperor Qianlong was very clear about what He Shen did. But from beginning to end, there was no punishment and trial of He Shen, for no other reason, it was nothing more than because, for the emperor, He Shen's preservation can allow him to better control every move in the officialdom, and can make his inner treasury more abundant, so to speak. The interests of He Shen, in a certain sense, also represent the interests of the emperor, and the emperor himself knows very well that He Shen will never betray himself, because once betrayed, then the other party will have nothing......

This is also a kind of transformation between selfishness and public heart......

And if one day, all of humanity comes together under the rule of a federal government, then for the president and senior officials of this federal government, they will not need to think about the strife between countries and countries. More often than not, they will think for all of humanity. At that time, in their consciousness, the so-called human race and the so-called country are actually not so important, and they may be more concerned about the conflicts or diplomatic relations that may break out between the earthlings and aliens......

And this is the biggest difference between the vegetative state and the selfless state!

Although both are presented in a state of losing oneself, in fact, there is an essential difference between the two, the former means the annihilation of consciousness or deep sleep, while the latter is a state of high concentration of consciousness and the formation of a state of extreme reverse......

If we use an analogy, the consciousness of the vast majority of ordinary people is like an ordinary form of water......

The consciousness of a vegetative person is an ice cube at an ultra-low temperature, this ice cube form, although it is also water, but it has lost the possibility of flowing, just like the consciousness of a person who has completely fallen into a deep sleep, if there is no way to thaw, then there is no way to really wake up, and this process is often very difficult, the longer it takes to become a implanted person, the more consciousness is frozen, the more it is eroded, and the more difficult it is to recover, and the more difficult it is for people to wake up......

The so-called selfless state, on the contrary, is like water boiling at high temperature, which has been completely vaporized into water vapor, and the consciousness after vaporization is equivalent to having lost the form of consciousness and has been transformed into a state of seeming nothingness, in this state, consciousness is not the consciousness above the conventional, but a sublimation state of consciousness, and the form has also changed fundamentally!

One is freezing at low temperatures, and the other is nothingness after high temperatures, these are two very different states......

In fact, this is also a change of obsession......

The obsession is so profound that it will naturally disappear when it reaches a certain level......

Because of human instinct, this obsession will be subconsciously killed, leaving a pure consciousness......

This point, in fact, is like one of the so-called most conventional paths to sanctification in many flood novels, which is the so-called beheading of three corpses!

The so-called beheading of three corpses is actually to cut off one's own good thoughts, evil thoughts and obsessions, cut off good and evil, cut off attachments, then a person will naturally have no good and no evil, and will not be obsessed, and when he reaches such a state, he is already close to the original way of the world, and such a person is naturally a saint......

In fact, the so-called good, the so-called evil, itself is also a kind of obsession, because different people, distinguish between good and evil, there will always be completely different standards, for the vast majority of good people, even small evil in their eyes is unforgivable evil, and for the vast majority of evil people, even if it is just a small good, among them can already be regarded as a great good, before good and evil, in fact, it is often very difficult to weigh, everyone has their own view of right and wrong, They all have their own perceptions of good and evil......

Just like things such as extramarital affairs, some people will feel that there is no big deal, and it has nothing to do with the so-called morality, and they will even feel that the existence of extramarital affairs is just a typical representative of the true feelings in the world......

And some people will feel that the person who betrays the marriage and betrays the responsibility is the most heinous being, and it can be said that he is the most evil person among the great evildoers, abandoning his original bad wife and looking for his so-called love, in fact, it is nothing more than his own liking the new and hating the old, and he can't talk about pursuing the so-called true love at all, but just making an excuse for his shamelessness......

And many things in the world are actually like this......

People will always have their own position and their own opinions, so it is natural to have a perception of good and evil, but the real sense of the saint, in fact, should be no good and no evil, the so-called evil people should be thundered by the sky This kind of thing, in fact, is just the vast majority of people's fantasy of beauty, the vast majority of those who die of natural disasters and man-made disasters are just ordinary people, among whom there may be evil people, but good people will definitely not be in the minority, this is the power of heaven!

In the true sense of the word, the way of heaven will never be influenced by the thoughts of mortals......

Thunder is thunder, rain is rain, landslides are landslides, tsunamis are tsunamis, there is no good and no evil, naturally......

Of course, the so-called absence of good and evil does not mean that saints really have no sense of right and wrong, nor does it mean that saints really have no purpose in doing things......

It's just that after entering this state of no good and no evil, a saint will no longer be influenced by external objects, and the good and evil in the eyes of ordinary people no longer have any meaning to them, they will only do what they think they should do, and they will only do what they want to do......

They will cause wars between mortals for their own interests, but they will not have any cause and effect, nor will they feel guilty and painful because of this, because their concept of right and wrong has long been different from that of mortals, they know the world, the concepts of good and evil they construct, and the things they pursue are very different from ordinary people......

After reaching their height, if the world is a huge chessboard, then they are equivalent to those who play chess, what kind of fate the chess pieces are, for them, it is an inconsequential matter, what they need to fight for is just the number of qi on the chessboard, which piece of chess is exhausted, they will not care, what they really care about is the situation on the entire chessboard, what they care about is the distribution of forces on the entire chessboard...... (To be continued......)
