Chapter 8: Evolution and Perspective
"Don't make any noise, Teacher Wu is here..."I don't know who shouted, and the classroom suddenly became unusually quiet.
Only then did Liu Bei regain his mind and begin to prepare for the next lessons.
On the way to the classroom just now, he had already learned about his teacher through the light brain.
Teacher Wu's real name is Wu Tianchou, and he is one of the most senior teachers in the Holy Martial Academy, and he has a high attainment in contemplating ideas.
There are also ideas on the earth, such as the idea of the white bone and the idea of the ape, but the idea of the world is obviously a little different, and it can significantly improve people's spiritual strength. This is something that cannot be done by contemplating on earth.
The spiritual power mentioned here is not the virtual, inscrutable spirit on earth. It is real, and it can even interfere with reality and lift up physical objects.
It sounds incredible, but there's so much more to the world than that. Interstellar, colonizing a planet, and other things that are still in the fantasy stage on Earth have become reality here.
It's all thanks to evolution.
Man is the union of the physical and the spiritual, the combination of the real and the virtual. Of course, the same applies to almost all living beings.
Therefore, the evaluation of the degree of evolution is also composed of these two aspects, one is physical and the other is spiritual.
The evaluation of the physical body is based on strength, cell activity, vitality and other aspects.
The evaluation of the spirit is generally the degree of brain domain development.
According to legend, Einstein's brain domain development reached 12%. The brain domain development of the average person on the earth is about 10%.
With a difference of only 2%, Einstein discovered the application of nuclear energy and the general theory of relativity. Of course, there are other reasons for this, so I won't go into details for now.
However, even so, we can see the importance of brain domain development.
With the improvement of evolution, the development of the brain domain has been greatly improved, and human beings have extremely high intelligence. This has also created advanced technology in this world that far surpasses the civilization of the earth.
In this world, contemplation has a long history, even before the evolutionary calendar. From this point of view, it has been around much longer than on Earth.
It may sound like it has nothing to do with evolution, but it is an essential method on the path of evolution. There is even a saying that there is no visualization and no evolution.
As we all know, the physical body and the spirit are mystically linked. For example, a strong person tends to be more energetic, while a person who has been sick for a long time will mostly have varying degrees of mental malaise.
To some extent, the two are normally in a relative equilibrium. Spiritual strength determines the threshold of physical growth, and physical growth can also increase mental strength in turn.
Evolution, on the other hand, is about breaking the balance, then by elevating one of them, and then improving the other, and finally maintaining a new equilibrium.
So, there are two ways to evolve:
The first is to improve the spiritual strength first, and then rely on external forces to improve the physical level. This method is the safest, and it feels like a matter of course. However, the disadvantage is that the entry into the country is slow.
The other is to raise the level of the physical body first, and then improve the spirit through the reaction between the physical body and the spirit. One of the most important aspects of this is how to maintain mental stability under the influence of the physical body. Because the spirit is the foundation of the human self and the source of all 'me'. The advantage of this method is that it can enter the country quickly, but it is easy to cause mental instability and even collapse.
The greatest function of contemplation is to maintain the unity of the mind when the spirit is impacted, and to greatly prevent the mind from collapsing and becoming an idiot or the spirit from distorting into the path of destruction.
Of course, contemplation is also one of the most important means to improve mental power.
It can be said that with a good concept, a good foundation is laid, and the road of evolution will be twice as effective with half the effort. Winning Bai Fumei and reaching the pinnacle of life is no longer just a dream.
Originally, Liu Bei also wanted to preview the content of the class, but there was no information on the light brain.
Generally speaking, the teacher will send the content of the upcoming lecture to the students' optical brain in advance, so that everyone can better understand and have enough time to raise their doubts.
I don't know why, but not this time.
Zhang Lihua watched Liu Bei start to concentrate on the class, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. Obviously, Liu Bei's performance exceeded her expectations. However, she did not continue to delve into this issue, and instead focused on Teacher Wu's class.
Wu Tianchou's class is the most anticipated course by almost all students, and there is no one. The reason why I say 'almost' is because some people don't look down on these publicly taught ideas, such as Wang Kun and Murong Xue.
As the children of a large family, they have a view of the family's secrets.
Because they didn't care, they didn't even come to class.
"In this class, we don't talk about contemplation and thought, only about belief ......" Wu Tianchou said a sentence, making all the students look at each other. But they didn't say anything, although they still wanted to hear the explanation of the thoughts.
"People live for a lifetime, maybe 300 years, maybe 500 years. Of course, with the improvement of the level of evolution, the lifespan of human beings is also increasing, and perhaps some of you can reach a lifespan of more than a thousand years like the Holy Martial Emperor, but it is impossible to live forever.
These hundreds or thousands of years may seem like a long time, but they are also very short.
When I was young, I felt that time was very long, looking forward to growing up, and looking forward to the glory of life.
At the moment of death, you will find that time is very short, and before you know it, you have already completed your life.
So how should people live?
Do you have to get ahead and look down on all beings?"
Wu Tianchou's words seemed to be discouraged, which was Liu Bei's feeling.
"The instinct of life will find a way out, and it will continue to pass on, which will push humanity to go further and further on the path of evolution. Isn't this what Emperor Shengwu said?" a classmate asked.
"It seems that the vast majority of you think this way..."Wu Tianchou glanced at his many students.
"Of course Emperor Shengwu's words are true, but they are only for the human race. I think individuals don't just evolve for the sake of evolving, but they should understand why they evolve.
Of course, it's hard to really understand this sentence at your age. Emperor Shengwu could have survived, but in the end he chose faith. ”
It is a myth that it can be said that without him, there would be no human beings now.
"Evolution is not just evolution. When you move forward, you don't just move forward. Maintaining oneself is the core of contemplation and not being dominated by the instincts of the flesh is the most important meaning of contemplation. This is all I can teach you......" After saying this, Wu Tian walked out of the classroom without looking back.
