Chapter 604: Stop when you have a thought

Nian Fu said: "Hehe, if you want to talk about it, life is fake, not to mention! Look at us people, how fake we are! ”

Xiao Tianshu smiled: "That's right, it's hard for people to last long, are the scenery long......"

Nian Fu smiled: "Hehe, that's not what I mean, what I'm saying is actually that you see that our people live differently from others, and the things we see are not false in the eyes of others, and they think they are incredible?" Then do you say that our life feels very fake, and I don't know if these strange things that we see that others can't see are true. Or are they seeing it, and these are the real ones......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "Well, that's true! The two of us can still do it, and there are too many things to see like Xuan Chu, if you let people who don't know imagine it, you can't imagine it at all, how are we going to live? ”

Nian Fu smiled and said: "Hehe, indeed, I don't know, they saved the universe or hell in their last life, and they have to do this kind of thing that no one else can see in this life, you say that except for people like us, other people really can't interfere, you say that we can't really say ...... if we don't do it."

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "Hehe, others won't do it if they want to, they don't know anything, they haven't encountered such a thing, and they can't see it, how can they be willing to do it, in their eyes, they can only look down on this kind of work, and they think that they are crazy people, or they are crazy and depressed here, and they can't calm down to do this, in their eyes, they are all calm and naturally cool, and they are very calm......"

Nian Fu smiled and said, "Hehe! Also, you see that those mental hospitals are lying in all the drugs for sedation and calming down, in fact, those mental illnesses may have seen something, and then caused him to go crazy, crazy no, but like us, when we saw it, we didn't say that we were driven crazy, especially Xuan Chu, you see that she is calmer than anyone else, although he is scared, but it doesn't let people see it! ”

Xiao Tianshu said: "Hehe, this shows that my master is also neurotic, but we have no way to divide it, neurotic, those who have poor physical strength and no resistance have been frightened and sent to a mental hospital, or they will run all over the street......"

Nian Fu smiled: "Hahaha, that's really the case, then what do you say about us people to stay calm, let's just say that we people can still stay calm, then ordinary people can't maintain interpersonal relationships, if they are how to do it so that they don't go crazy, if people can't meditate, they will go crazy if they want to be manic!" There seems to be a wise saying that if a person goes crazy, let him be angry first......"

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "If you want to meditate, you have to practice meditation......"

Nian Fu smiled and said, "Hehe, Jinggong, this is not a book from heaven, right?" ”

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "The key to meditation is to enter meditation; The key to meditation is to stop thinking. So how do you combine meditation with meditation in a playful way? I will introduce a few methods used in Taoist cultivation. ”

Nian Fu smiled and said, "Okay, good ......"

Xiao Tianshu said with a smile: "First, if there is a thought, stop it, meditate, always be vigilant, if there are miscellaneous thoughts, remove them immediately, so that the previous thoughts are eliminated, the later thoughts are not born, and there is no thought at the moment, that is, it is quiet." Or some thoughts are a problem that needs to be considered, such as whether to do something tomorrow, then you can think about it, and stop it as soon as you have the result. In this way, you will not be burdened, and you will not come back after you stop this. If there are other things to consider, use this method to solve them. If you really don't think about a problem well, you just put it down and talk about it, and you don't have to think hard about it and delay your work. In this way, it gradually decreases, and naturally reaches the point of thoughtlessness. Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching" said: Loss and loss, so that inaction. The meaning of the loss is reduced, and the state of non-thought is non-action. ”

Nian Fu said: "What are the benefits of this? ”

Xiao Tianshu said: "The benefits of this approach are relatively easy to grasp. I'm afraid that there are too many distracting thoughts, and my brain is constantly thinking about problems, one after another, pressing the gourd and scooping again, making it unbearable, once impatient, there are more distracting thoughts. Therefore, it is not a good method, but it can be tried by ordinary people, and it can play a certain role in a short period of time. ”

Nian Fu smiled: "And then? ”

Xiao Tianshu said: "Then, take it back and forget it, this method belongs to the mental method, and it needs a little bit of character to do it." If there are distracting thoughts during meditation, they should return to the body with subtle meanings, and then forget to mourn, and forget and the distracting thoughts will be gone. You can imagine yourself like a furnace that melts everything and I think, and all distractions are like snowflakes, which are melted into the furnace. When such distracting thoughts arise, they are collected into the body, and after they are "forgotten", they are reduced to nothing. Then the life is reaped, and then the harvest is forgotten. Gradually lead the mind into tranquility, and achieve the wonderful realm of quiet and inaction. Why is it said that cultivation requires understanding, and the word "forget" needs to be "understood" (comprehended) in order to be achieved. The so-called "forgetting" is not the stupid forgetting that ordinary people don't know anything, but the adjustment of the level of self-nature, that is, the state of mind from the distracting thoughts to the still place where no thought exists. Patriarch Ma Danyang once said: "Those who have no heart are not stupid and unintentional like cats and dogs." Be mindful of the realm of tranquility and endure my evil heart. Therefore, the layman has no pure heart, and the Taoist has no dirty heart. It can be seen that the word "forget" is not the stupid forgetting of cats and dogs, nor is it the unintentional forgetting of laypeople, but it is a kind of realm that cultivation should go deep into. Holding meditation in the realm of "forgetting" is a unique method of Taoism Neidan. ”

Nian Fu said: "I always thought I could think about it, maybe I just let it be......"

Xiao Tianshu smiled: "Yes, it can be regarded as a way to meditate, and the third is to go with the flow......

Nian Fu smiled and said: "Hehe, I didn't expect such a solution, I guessed and really guessed, what do you say about this kind of going with the flow?" Hehe, I really didn't expect it."

Xiao Tianshu said: "This method is a simple method, that is, without adding any thoughts, you will naturally enter into meditation. If you float and think wildly, haunting your heart, although the distracting thoughts are not heavy, but there are many secrets, and you can't distinguish them for a while, like a mess without a head, it is difficult to clean up with the method of "stopping when you have a thought", and it is difficult to control it with the method of "retracting and forgetting to mourn". At this time, you don't have to worry about him, just sit still, go with the flow, and let him fend for himself. As long as the mind ignores it, these distracting thoughts will become "imaginary", because the thoughts are born from the heart, the heart sits quietly and ignores, and the distracting thoughts lose the market, and there is no choice but to return to the heart and turn into meditation. ”
