Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info powerful that most people are pursuing in this world......

In fact, they are all relatively powerful, not powerful in an absolute sense!

Just like the wealth and power that people pursue in the real world, although wealth and power have great power, this power itself is actually built under the constraints of order......

Having this kind of power means abiding by the rules and taking the corresponding responsibilities!

This is true for high-ranking officials, and it is also true for the rich!

Wealth and power can make people powerful, but they also have to follow the rules!

If they try to break this order, then the powerful rules will completely deprive them of their power and wealth!

Their strength comes from the order itself, so they must abide by the order, they are extremely strong on the surface, but this strength itself is based on the order!

On the surface, they are superior to others and have privileges that ordinary people can't reach, but in reality they have a lot of rules to follow, and it's hard to be free and do what you want in a real sense!

Just like a lot of rich children, it is often difficult to choose their other half, more often, their marriage is determined by their elders and their family background, few people can really pursue their own happiness and love, their marriage itself, for their family, is a kind of bargaining chip, they enjoy the convenience brought to them by the family, it is inevitable to be restricted by the family for their lives......

This is actually a price they have to pay for their privileges!

On the contrary, like ordinary people, it is different, although the right thing to consider is still a problem, but it will not be a decisive factor in the marriage of both parties, even if the difference between the family backgrounds of the two parties is not small, as long as both parties insist and have enough courage, there is always the possibility of being able to achieve happiness!

Of course, it is undeniable that sacrificing one's marriage or relationship is not a big deal compared to having wealth and power, as well as privileges that ordinary people do not have, at least for the vast majority of people in this world, I am afraid that they will not reject this kind of human life......

At least for the vast majority of ordinary people, choosing the so-called involuntary self-determination of the rich and high-ranking officials is an inconsequential matter for them, at least it is undeniable that those who have wealth and power always have a more surpassing standard of living than ordinary people!

Although the rules can regulate their behavior, even if their behavior is restricted, they are still much stronger than ordinary people!

Just like since ancient times, people have always been envious, jealous and hateful about the existence of immortals, and there has never been a mortal who feels that being a god is not interesting, or is unwilling to be an immortal if conditions permit!

However, there is a difference between gods and immortals after all!

In modern society, those high-ranking officials, those rich people, in a sense, are god-level figures, they have privileges that ordinary people do not have, and can even change the behavior of ordinary people to a certain extent, determine the fate of ordinary people, one of their thoughts, can completely subvert an era, one of their ideas, can make countless people's lives change!

It's like the so-called gods in Eastern and Western mythology!

The so-called gods, in the final analysis, are the aggregate of rules, they are the embodiment of rules, although they have a certain ability to think, but more of them are still in the service of rules!

In the Western world, each deity has its own deity and priesthood, the deity determines the strength and influence of a deity, and the deity determines the jurisdiction of a deity, the greater the scope of the deity, the stronger the deity will naturally be, and the smaller the scope of the deity, the weaker the deity!

The same is true of the gods in the Eastern world, each god has its own duties, and the more powerful the gods, the more powerful they are......

From a certain point of view, the Jade Emperor in the Eastern world and the supreme god in the Western world are actually similar beings, they are both the most powerful individuals in a theocratic priesthood system, and they can have the authority to rule over the gods......

In the real world, those who are in the real sense of the top, those high-ranking officials and those who are rich, in fact, in the world of ordinary people, there is no difference between them and gods!

As long as you obey your duties and be faithful to your duties, then God is theoretically invincible!

Just like the pure officials in the absolute sense of officialdom, they cannot be removed in the struggle of officialdom under any circumstances, because they are naturally the insulators of the party, and they only do their own work......

Just like those direct ministers in ancient times, as long as they themselves are decent enough, they don't have to worry about being liquidated by the emperor in the change of dynasty, as long as their starting point is not from their own selfishness, then they are invincible in the absolute sense......

For example, Wei Zheng is a typical example!

Even if he was originally a princeling, after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he was also reused, and the reason is very simple, because he has always done things that are in line with his identity, and he will never go beyond it, doing what he should do, saying what he should say, like a mirror, reflecting the deepest self and truth in everyone's heart......

However, even if it is an ancient emperor and a high-ranking official, or a prominent figure in modern society, if you want to make an analogy, you can only be called a god after all, not an immortal!

The reason is simple, no matter what kind of person they are, in essence, although they are powerful, their behavior itself is still subject to restrictions and limitations!

Just like the high-ranking officials in ancient times, there has always been a saying that the king is like a tiger, when he is appreciated by the emperor, he can certainly rise to the top and grasp infinite authority, but once he is disgusted by the emperor, he will inevitably be punished and purged, and he may even be a high-ranking official during the day, and he will become a prisoner at night, and even his family will be slaves!

What restricts their behavior is the existence of the royal system!

And as the apex of royal power, the emperor is actually not completely able to do whatever he wants, between the emperor and the courtiers, there is always a state of mutual supervision, if the courtiers make mistakes, the emperor will send down the wrath of thunder, and if the emperor makes a mistake, it may also be set aside or even removed by those who really hold the power, the existence of the royal power system is not only to restrain the behavior of the courtiers, in fact, it is also to restrain the behavior of the emperor......

Whether it is a high-ranking official or an emperor, in fact, they are all products of order, and they must all abide by the order that their respective actions should observe!

If the courtiers make mistakes, they will be attacked by other ministers and finally punished by the emperors, and if the emperor makes mistakes and becomes a tyrant, he will naturally be disgusted by the whole world and even subvert their dynasty......

The emperor governs the ministers, the ministers govern the world, the people commit, the ministers who govern the world will judge them, and the ministers who commit crimes, the emperor who manages the ministers will judge them, and if the emperor commits a crime, then it will be the turn of the people of the world to sanction the emperor!

These three, if each character can be conscientious and fulfill their duties, then the world will naturally be peaceful, Guotai Ming'an, if any of the characters have a problem first, the world will naturally be in chaos......

In the final analysis, no matter how powerful the emperor is, in a sense, he is just an ordinary person, and their strength comes from their power and the system of royal power......

And as an ordinary emperor, their ordinariness is precisely the greatest constraint on their own privileges!

Since ancient times, every emperor has called himself long live, and they like to hear others call them long live, but does an emperor really live to be 10,000 years old? The answer, of course, is no, in fact, if measured from the perspective of modern people, the average life expectancy of ancient emperors is actually very low......

They possess powers as powerful as gods, but they themselves are ultimately the ones that restrict their existence......

They will eventually grow old, eventually suffer from all kinds of diseases, and will inevitably become incompetent and even inevitably face death......

Their strength comes from the order itself, but the order is more of a rational distribution and use of power, and after all, it cannot change the nature of power in essence!

Just like the generals in ancient times, their existence can make an army become brave and good at fighting, reasonable command and training, can make the combat effectiveness of an army increase geometrically, can defeat the strong with the weak, and can achieve the outnumbered ......

However, it is not enough for them to turn the soldiers into supermen who fly to the sky, nor can they turn the cold weapons in the hands of the soldiers into powerful hot weapons......

However, compared to gods, immortals are a different concept!

Immortal is a kind of power transformation that comes from essence!

If you look purely at the strength of power, there is actually no essential difference between immortals and gods!

However, if you measure it from the level of freedom, it is even rarer and more powerful!

The reason is very simple, the power of the gods comes from their priesthood, from the power given to them by the entire priesthood system, their strength, their immortality and immortality are all based on the existence of the divine system!

The stronger the gods, the weaker their ego becomes, the clearer their cognition of the rules, the closer they are to the rules, with the strength of the gods, they will gradually lose themselves, and finally be completely assimilated by the power of the rules, become a part of the rules, this state of God is extremely powerful, but in a sense, any individual loses himself, in fact, it is equivalent to not existing, such existence, in a sense, It's not much different from a Heavenly Dao puppet......

And immortals are different, the strength of immortals is based on their own hearts!

Gods are the product of rules, once generated, as long as the rules are not destroyed, they themselves are immortal and immortal, at most they are only sealed, and it is difficult to really die and fall, even if they fall, as long as the priesthood exists for a day, their consciousness may be awakened and revived, which can be said to be the true meaning of heaven and earth......

Any ordinary person, as long as he is recognized by Shinto, can directly become a god from the identity of an ordinary person in a few minutes and become a god with great power......

This is also where Shinto is strong!

Of course, there are gains and losses......

Because the power of Shinto comes easily, it is also a very easy thing to lose, and such a thing as divine power itself can be given or deprived......

In many cases, a single fate can completely knock a god down to the mortal dust, and make a powerful god become a mortal, just like Sha Wujing and Zhu Bajie in Journey to the West, just like the immortals who were knocked down from the mortal dust in many fairy stories, in the final analysis, it is actually because of the relationship between being withdrawn from the divine power......

On the contrary, the power of immortals is completely the success of cultivation, the pursuit of immortals is their own detachment, the pursuit is an absolute sense of unfettered resources, the so-called cultivation of truth, in essence, is actually through the way of cultivation, to understand their own heart, let their own mind clearly, really understand what they want, and only act according to their own heart......

This is also known as thought access!

The growth of immortals is extremely difficult, not only can life and death disappear at any time, but also have extremely high requirements for understanding and blessings, only a very small number of people can become an immortal!

However, the most powerful thing about immortals is not their combat power, but their freedom and heart!

There is one word that is most appropriate to describe immortals than gods!

Get away!

Yes, MEmu!

Every god has its own responsibilities, and the power they possess does not belong entirely to them, but more just uses their own divine power for the sake of duty......

But immortals are different, immortals are absolutely free individuals, they can do whatever they want, or they can choose to sleep for a thousand years without doing anything, and no one can deprive them of their own power except death......

Their power is absolutely free, and so is their thoughts......

This is the biggest difference between immortals and gods!

Because of this, all the cultivators of the immortal path basically don't look down on the so-called Shinto, although some gods have not weak combat power, and are almost immortal, but they are not really free, and there is not much room for growth......

Although it is difficult to become an immortal, every bit of strength is something that belongs to you!

And Shinto can certainly achieve the Tao by one person, but it has to bear the responsibility and cannot be free!
