"For example, the rhinoceros looks at the moon, the moon is shaped into the horns, and it is born because of the knowledge of life, and the moon is not in the horns at the beginning. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As the cool moonlight entered the spiritual platform, Meng Xiongfei completely understood and comprehended the meaning of this sentence at this moment. This sentence that I saw and remembered from nowhere in my memory seemed to be indeed a cultivation mantra.
In the Taoist scriptures, there is such a thing as playfulness, and nothing is explicitly said, but metaphors and borrowings are used, such as what other babies, maidens, dragons and tigers, lead and mercury, and so on. The same is true of this statement, and not just in the literal sense of the word.
In fact, people also make it clear at the beginning, the word "for example" is the meaning of the metaphor. It's just that Meng Xiongfei only accidentally remembered this sentence that he didn't know where to remember, with neither a preface nor a postscript, but he couldn't compare the meaning of the context. Not to mention, it's already obscure.
Of course, he's got it now. "For example, a rhinoceros looking at the moon" means that when you cultivate, you should look like a rhinoceros looking at the moon. Not only do you have to pose this pose, but you also have to imagine that you also have a crescent-shaped rhinoceros horn on your nose. As long as you imagine this angle, then you can look at the moon and the three points and one line, and you can immediately and accurately find the location of the Lingtai Zhihai.
The four characters "moon-shaped into the horn" refer to the essence of the moon into the horn, and the horn here naturally refers to the sea of consciousness that has been targeted by the imaginary rhino horn.
"The moon is born because of the consciousness", which still refers to the imaginary rhino horn, and the consciousness refers to the consciousness and mind, that is, to imitate the characteristics of the rhinoceros with the power of the mind, and imagine a horn, only in this way can the spiritual platform shine on the moon shape.
"And the real moon is not in the corner at the beginning", the real moon here refers to the Lingtai Zhihai. And the horn refers to the horn that imitates the imaginary with the mind, and it is the point of reminding the practitioner of cultivation, it is the true moon, it is the sea of knowledge, not the horn, don't get confused, go and put too much emphasis on the imaginary horn. This horn only plays a role in positioning and guiding.
It sounds a bit winding, one moment is the horn refers to the sea, the other is the real moon refers to the sea, and the other is the other corner. So at first glance, I didn't understand this sentence at all, and I didn't have a clue. But if you really understand and comprehend, then this sentence is also simple. It's just a cultivation mantra of just twenty-six words, and the meaning contained in it is not too complicated.
First of all, it is to pose as a rhinoceros looking at the moon, which is actually to look up at the moon and aim at it. Then, with the idea of imitating the characteristics of the rhinoceros, the rhino horn is imagined, which is used to accurately locate the sea of knowledge. Then, it is to use the positioning of this three-point line to guide the moonlight to shine along this line through his own spiritual platform and the sea.
Mud Pill Ancestral Trick, Lingtai Zhihai, Huangting Kunlun, or the True Moon Rhino Horn in this formula, no matter what it is called, what is used to borrow metaphors, it all refers to this same place. And this is also said to be the place where the soul of man dwells.
"There are nine palaces in the head, nine days in the upper part and one palace in the middle, which is called the mud pill. ”
As the moonlight penetrated into the Lingtai Zhihai, Meng Xiongfei felt that he was imitating the imaginary rhino horn with his mind, and when the moonlight shone through the tip of the horn, that little bit of thought also mixed into the moonlight. It made him feel like he had changed his perspective, and he could see his own sea of consciousness as the moonlight shone through.
As soon as the moonlight shone, I first felt that the piece of flesh and blood on my forehead had been illuminated by the moonlight, turning into a transparent and formless form. Then the moonlight shone on the white expanse in the middle of the skull, like a cloud of mist gathering, and it was not real to see inside.
The fog began to dissipate in the moonlight. I don't know how long it took, it seemed to be only a short moment, and it seemed to be as long as tens of millions of years, and I felt a bang in my ears, and the moonlight seemed to have passed through time and space, and entered a vast and boundless world. Under the moonlight, I only felt that the world was boundless, there was no end, up and down, left and right, in all directions, and all I saw was a white expanse.
Suddenly he felt something kindly summon the thought that came in with the moonlight, and then with a thud, he opened his eyes. Yes, he did open his eyes. His consciousness was originally attached to the moonlight, and he did not have any form, but at this moment, he felt that his eyes were open.
When he opened his eyes, he found that he had a body, and he had hands and feet, and when he touched his head again, he had no horns and no bull's head, and he turned back into a human. This discovery couldn't help but make him ecstatic. He was on the verge of tears of joy and tears, but he was only a soul at this time, and there were no tears.
Indeed, in this sea of knowledge is the dwelling place of the soul of man. Seeing his long-lost human body, although it was only a soul, he still couldn't help laughing happily in this sea of knowledge.
And at this moment, he also confirmed that his soul was still human. Although he has always believed that he is only a cow soul or a human body since he became a cow, this basis is only that he still retains human consciousness, knowledge, experience, memory, etc., and it is really difficult to say whether the soul itself is still human. But now, he's confirmed.
It took a while for him to come to his senses and stop laughing. But I still couldn't suppress the excitement and looked left and right, up and down, and a pair of arms and hands were turned over and over several times. Even if he knew that he was only a soul body manifested in the sea of consciousness, but he was finally able to see his human form again, this joy was really conceivable.
The way he looks now is what he was like when he was a person, with a square and angular face, wheat-colored skin, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide forehead and a wide mouth, and a straight nose. Although it is not very handsome, it is also very stylish, especially the pair of eyebrows and eyes are very eye-catching. The eyebrows are thick and dark, thick and shapely. A pair of big eyes under the eyebrows are very bright, black and white, black and white, and the black is very pure, not the brown or brown that most people approximate black. It's very pure black, black and shiny, like a little paint.
With his height of 1.82 meters, as well as his strong, strong and well-proportioned body that has been exercising since he was a child and exercising regularly, he can also attract the attention of women. And since his parents went and took over the store, the four years of exercise and experience have also made him less impetuous and jumpy than many young people of his age, and he seems mature and steady. The clothes he wore were the same ones he wore at the end of his life and when he died.
He looked left and right, and after a long while, he finally settled down. At this time, he looked around at his sea of knowledge, although it was very vast and boundless, but most of it was white, and only a dozen or so squares around his soul could be clearly seen. And under the moonlight drawn from outside, the white mist continued to retreat and dissipate. It's just that there is too much fog and too much space, and the moonlight can't be dispelled for a while.
And the moonlight shining on the body of the soul made him feel cool and very comfortable. Everything can be divided into yin and yang, and a person's body is yang, and his soul is yin.
After Meng Xiongfei's body was transformed by the fire date, the sun essence contained in it was very domineering, rejecting all the energy of other attributes, so his body could only absorb the sun essence to cultivate. However, the soul belongs to yin, and in the sea of consciousness where the soul dwells, it does not exclude the intake and absorption of moonlight.
