Chapter 64: The Secret Story of Cultivation (Part II)
"Ascension, what has it become?" Gao He didn't understand, whether it was an Eastern monk, a Western monk, a righteous path, or a demonic path, everyone was pursuing this white ascension, what was the ascension, where did it go, and what did it do? Is it worth the pursuit of these best of humanity?
"No one can tell you that." The woman seemed to be very helpless, and Gao He's question was too difficult to answer. Let's talk about profundity, not at all, what everyone is pursuing, how can it be said to be profound? However, to put it simply, there is no suitable way to describe it, it is not simple at all: "The people who ascend never leave any words about what is after the ascension." Everyone generally thinks that ascension is to become an immortal! ”
"Where does the immortal live? Do what? What are the benefits? Gao He continued to ask: "There should always be a purpose in doing things, and you can't do it without any goal." At least ordinary people still know what they want, eating is to survive, drinking water is also to survive, working to make money or to survive, what is the purpose of cultivating immortals? Could it be that they have become the so-called immortals who can soar through the clouds, eat and drink dew? But these ordinary people can do it with the help of technology, so why do they have to practice hard? ”
"Maybe, just live long!" The woman sighed in her heart and replied to Gao He.
"Well, at least that's a reason." Gao He was still very satisfied with this answer. However, the question immediately arises: "Does Ascension have to be alive?" Perhaps, the ascension is the death of your monks? How can no one say something that is clear, how can it still be pursued so hard? ”
"I don't know, no one can say." The woman admitted very simply: "Even the legend of the so-called immortal Buddha is imposed by ordinary people by the practitioner's previous performance, what is the real immortal, what is the Buddha, no one can say clearly." ”
"I've got you!" Gao He eventually gave up on asking the question of the purpose of the surname. However, when I remembered something, I changed my tone: "Then, can cultivation be free from samsara?" ”
"What?" The woman was obviously not sure about Gao He's question. Gao He repeated, and the woman understood, and after thinking for a long time, she replied: "I don't know!" ”
What is the answer? Gao He was very depressed. When the woman saw him like this, she comforted him: "Don't be discouraged. If you ask these questions to those people in the Association of Special Functions, they will definitely tell you very clearly what an immortal is, what a Buddha is, what reincarnation is, and what ascension is. These detailed records are found in the texts of their sects. ”
"Then how could you not know?" Gao He was very strange, even those low-level cultivators knew that it was impossible for this arrogant-looking Bing Sha not to know.
"Because what is recorded in their texts is written down by some people who have attained a very high level of cultivation in the past. What they recorded was nothing more than what they imagined. When it is passed on to future generations, it is as if it has become something conventional, and everyone thinks that it is just true. The woman was very clear about this question: "My teacher is more special, and I know more about these things. ”
"And what do you know about reincarnation?" Gao He asked again, again about reincarnation.
"Or maybe that's a better question for you?" There was a hint of a smile in the woman's eyes: "Who can say more than you know?" If you don't even know, who else will? ”
It seems that she has guessed something by accident when talking to the woman. Gao He smiled bitterly and did not speak. Suddenly, I remembered what the voice in my soul had said that taught me my mantra.
"Whether it's cultivating the Tao, cultivating demons, the East, or the West, you come and go, and you always say that you are acting against the sky, but in the end, is your cultivation considered to be acting against the sky, or acting against the sky?" Gao He had thought about this question, but there was no answer, and no one had answered him, so now Gao He asked it.
"Cultivators, everything they do is challenging the limits of heaven and earth, it should be regarded as against the sky!" The woman didn't know what Gao He meant by asking, so she could only answer like this.
"Then since it's acting against the sky, why do you have to follow the so-called bullshit that can't be revealed or whatever, I don't know who set the rules? Are you doing things against the heavens yourself, but are you afraid to tell others? Gao He's point of not divulging the heavenly secrets is that those cultivators who knew that there was an earthquake, but did not warn the ordinary people in a word. Of course, this also includes the ice in front of you.
"......" Bing was speechless, not knowing how to answer.
"Why do you say that you are acting against the sky? What have you done that anger and resentment do you have to say that you are against the sky? Seeing that Bingsha couldn't answer, Gao He changed the question. The voice that taught his mantra said that he was acting against the sky, and Bingsha also said that he was acting against the sky, why?
"Our cultivators, in terms of lifespan alone, far surpass all ordinary people. The mandate of heaven has its own mandate, and people's longevity is limited, but we have broken through this, isn't it still against the sky? "Bingsha wondered how Gao He could ask this question. However, chatting with Gao He for a while, he has brought himself too many directions that he has never paid attention to before, and he has indeed been hit like never before, so he still answers very seriously.
"The pursuit of survival is the common surname of all living beings. According to you, living long is against the sky? Pursuing the long life is against the sky, so from Ru Mao drinking blood, people can only live for more than ten years to now live an average of about 150 years old, isn't everyone going against the sky? Looking at Bingsha, Gao He retorted seriously: "If everyone is going against the sky, there are not many of you." What's more, don't even animals and plants pursue survival? Could it be that all living things are rebelling against the sky? ”
"Then we cultivators, capable of what people can't, go to heaven and earth, violating the laws of nature, isn't this considered against the sky?" Bingsha will not be refuted by Gao He all at once, although what Gao He said makes sense, but how can so many years of understanding change all at once?
"It's too easy to go to heaven and earth!" Gao He scoffed at this: "We ordinary people are not rotating vacations on several planets now, which is also called going against the sky?" ”
"But you are using tools, but we are our own capabilities." Ice Brake strikes back.
"You are your own ability, and we also need to use tools to show that we ordinary people are cheating. Is it true that those who follow the rules and take their own exams are bad boys, and those who cheat on exams are good kids? Gao He was even more disdainful of this and knocked him down directly.
