Chapter 6: The Heart Sutra
Ye Zhenyu tidied up the house and sat on the sofa in a daze. I cut a pot of tea to calm down, pulled up the Heart Sutra from the computer and read it carefully.
I remember when I was a child practicing calligraphy, my mother asked him to copy the "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra", he copied less than a thousand times, the Heart Sutra can be said to be familiar with the heart, but for the sake of prudence, he still read the full text: "When the Bodhisattva is in the contemplation of freedom, when he walks deep Prajnaparamita, he sees that the five aggregates are empty, and he overcomes all suffering." The relics are not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true when you want to know it. ……”。
The front of this should be a mantra for cultivation, and the back "Therefore, I know that Prajnaparamita is a great mantra, a great mantra, a supreme mantra, and an unequal mantra, which can remove all suffering, and it is true." ......" should be the beauty of the Heart Sutra. After reading this, Ye Zhenyu drank a cup of tea, and began to settle down after gently tapping the golden bowl eight times.
This time, it went relatively smoothly. In the sea of knowledge, he kept reciting the Heart Sutra repeatedly, and slowly felt that he was connected with the stars of the universe, and finally disappeared completely, there were only stars in the sea of knowledge, he was not there and everywhere, there was no specific form, he was completely integrated into the stars of the universe, all kinds of beautiful sounds sounded, and a wonderful feeling that he had never experienced made him completely intoxicated......
I don't know how long it took, Ye Zhenyu felt that someone was by his side, so he naturally woke up from his steady state, feeling that his body was floating in the air and slowly descending on the sofa. When he opened his eyes, he found that Li Qingshan was looking at him in surprise.
"When did the seniors come, please take a seat!" Ye Zhenyu said, quickly got up and gave up his seat and made tea.
"Young master, I've been there for a while. How did you do that? This is almost the Jindan Imperial Sky Realm! Have you practiced before? Li Qingshan asked in surprise.
"Senior, don't call me young master, just call me Zhenyu. By the way, didn't you say it would take a few days to come back? Ye Zhenyu didn't answer directly, but was anxious to know if there was something wrong with Li Qingshan's return so early.
He is still not used to calling Li Qingshan Dr. Li, and he feels that his predecessors can be more respectful. Li Qingshan didn't care about these replies:
"Well, listen to the young master. I've been away for 4 days, and I'm here to take you away. However, you can't go yet, and you have to wait until after dark to avoid unnecessary trouble. ”
When Ye Zhenyu heard this, he hurriedly got up and said, "Senior, you sit down, drink tea first, and I'll cook." But there is nothing to eat, only Chinese cabbage and potatoes, and I eat porridge every day. ”
Ye Zhenyu was a little embarrassed and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook, Li Qingshan said: "No need, you forgot that we almost don't eat, we eat the essence of the sun and the moon, and we eat to find a feeling." Treat me to a big dinner when you have a chance. ”
"No problem, senpai! After the lockdown is lifted, I treat you to delicious food. Ye Zhenyu saw that Li Qingshan was not so serious, and he became relaxed.
"Zhenyu, if you're hungry, do it, leave me alone."
"I'm not hungry either. By the way, senior, you said that you have been gone for four days, how do I feel as if you have only been away for one day? ”
"Zhenyu, this may be your delusion after you are completely settled. Time passes very quickly after a person is truly settled. You may have heard that people who are in meditation feel very comfortable and happy all over their body, and this feeling of happiness will make the original discomfort such as sickness disappear in the body. Some people spend months in their first session and wake up feeling like only a few hours have passed. ”
"Oh, I understand when you say that. Senior, you just said that I was about to arrive at the Jindan Imperial Sky Realm, what realm is this? Ye Zhenyu still couldn't help but ask.
"Zhenyu, you sit, don't stand all the time. Now that you've crossed this threshold, I'm going to tell you more about it. Li Qingshan took a sip of tea and continued:
"This cultivation realm is divided into four series: the lower realm, the immortal realm, the divine realm, and the heavens and ten thousand realms. The lower realm is also divided into nine realms: true qi, refining void, concentrating, golden pill, holy fetus, primordial baby, out-of-body, distraction, and combination, and the golden pill mirror is also known as the imperial sky realm, the holy fetus realm is also known as the origin realm, the yuan infant realm is also known as the mortal realm, the out-of-body realm is also known as the quasi-king realm, the distraction realm is also known as the Qiankun realm, and the combined realm is also known as the Tongtian realm"
"Each realm is divided into several stages: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the peak. In the nether realm, true qi and the physical body are different, and the true qi is strong does not mean that the physical body is strong, and the physical body is divided into four major realms: the refining realm, the quenching bone realm, the blood coagulation realm, and the vajra realm, and each realm is divided into four stages: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the consummation stage.
"The fairy realm is divided into six realms: Heavenly Wonderland, True Fairyland, Xuan Fairyland, Golden Fairyland, Da Luo Jin Fairyland, and Mixed Yuan Da Luo Jin Fairyland; Da Luo Jin Wonderland is also known as the quasi-holy realm, and the mixed Yuan Da Luo Jin Wonderland is also known as the saint realm; Each realm is also divided into four stages: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, and the consummation. The Mixed Yuan Daluo Jin Immortal Realm is divided into the Immortal King Realm, the Immortal King Realm, the Immortal Venerable Realm, and the Immortal Emperor Realm. ”
"The six realms of the god realm, the title god, the god king, the god honor, the god emperor, and the heavenly honor. The divine realm is divided into the lower god heaven and human realm, and the middle god and heaven soldier realm; The title god is also known as the upper god heavenly general; The God King Realm is divided into the Heavenly King Realm and the Heavenly Monarch Realm; The Tianzun realm is divided into six realms: the Great Tianzun, the Xuantian Zun, the Taitian Zun, the Batianzun, the Supreme Tianzun, and the Supreme Tianzun; The supreme supreme supreme of the divine realm is the highest realm, and the divine realm is invincible.
The heavens and all worlds are divided into four realms: the Holy King, the Dao Monarch, the Dominant, and the Great Emperor; The Holy King is divided into ten realms: the early stage, the middle stage, the late stage, the peak, the five temple holy kings, the six temple holy kings, the seven temple holy kings, the eight temple holy kings, the nine hall holy kings, and the ten temple holy kings; Daojun is divided into ten realms: early, middle, late, peak, five-palace Daojun, six-palace Daojun, seven-palace Daojun, eight-palace Daojun, nine-palace Daojun, and ten-palace Daojun; dominate the four realms of the early, middle, late, and peak realms; The Great Emperor is divided into four realms: the Dao realm, the shattered realm, the immortal realm, and the Vientiane realm. ”
Ye Zhenyu was confused when he heard this, and Li Qingshan didn't explain, and continued: "According to tradition, if you cultivate to the peak of the lower realm, you can fly to the immortal realm, if you cultivate to the peak, you can fly to the god realm, and if you cultivate to the peak of the divine realm, you can fly to the heavens and ten thousand worlds. In your current scientific expression, the first three realms are all in the universe where the solar system is located, and the heavens and all worlds are the universe outside this universe. ”
Ye Zhenyu finally couldn't hold back and asked, "Can you really shuttle between stars without relying on spaceships?" ”
Anyway, it was only 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still early before it got dark, so Li Qingshan patiently said: "It is impossible for mortal spaceships to shuttle between stars, the speed is too slow, and mortals don't have such a long life, the wormhole you are talking about is promising, but the research has also deviated from the direction, and the I Ching Bagua and Qimen Dunjia should be studied." ”
"Of course, Xiuzhen can achieve interstellar travel. Have you read the Sutra? The Buddha said, "One day and the moon shine on the four heavens, covering the six desires and the first Zen days, which is a "small world"; A thousand small worlds cover one or two Zen heavens, which is a "small thousand worlds"; A thousand small worlds cover one or three Zen heavens, which is a "middle thousand worlds"; A thousand worlds cover one or four Zen heavens, which is a "great world"
There are three kinds of "thousand worlds" in a large world, small, medium and large, so it is called three thousand worlds. The Three Thousand Worlds is the Buddhist cosmology. Three Thousand Worlds: That is, the Great Thousand Worlds, because the three thousand are multiplied, so it is called the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds. Tens of billions of Mount Meru, tens of billions of sun and moon, called three thousand worlds. ”
"If it is the three thousand worlds of the Ganges River and the sand of the ten directions, it is called the world of one Buddha, and it is the Buddha of the Middle and the Buddha, and the Buddha Shakyamuni. Buddhism explains the organization of the world: each small world has the same form, with Mount Meru in the center, through the sea, standing on the wheel of the earth, under which is the golden wheel, then the water wheel, and then the wind wheel, and beyond the wind wheel is the void. ”
"Mount Meru is big up and down, the center is small, the sun and the moon are on the mountainside, the four heavenly kings live on the mountainside on all sides, the heaven is on the top of the mountain, and there are night sky, Tushi day, Lotte and other heaven in the sky above the heaven of the Buddha, and then there are eighteen days in the color world and four days in the colorless world."
"At the root of Mount Meru, there are seven gold mountains, seven perfume seas, surrounded by each sea, one mountain in between, outside the seventh gold mountain there is an alkali sea, and outside the alkali sea there is a big iron fence mountain. There are four major continents in the four directions of the alkali sea, namely the East Sheng Shen Continent, the South Ganbu Continent, the West Niu He Continent and the North Julu Continent, which is called the Four Heavens, and there are two middle continents next to each continent, and hundreds of small continents are dependents. ”
"If it is nine mountains and eight seas, one day and one moon, four continents, six desires and heavens, and three days of initial meditation, it is a small world. Set a thousand small worlds, overlaid with two Zen three days, for a small thousand worlds. Set a thousand small worlds, overlaid with three Zen three days, for a thousand worlds. It is a collection of a thousand worlds, covered with four meditations and nine heavens, and four empty heavens, which is a great world. Because there are multiples of three thousand in between, the Great Thousand Worlds are also called the Three Thousand Great Thousand Worlds. ”
"How do you think, how did the Buddha see the heavens and all the worlds? Because his primordial god has already traveled around the heavens and all worlds. He had long known that the earth was round, the sun was the center, and that the earth revolved around the sun. But these mortals have only known it for a few hundred years. It shows that through cultivation, interstellar shuttle can be realized. Speaking of which, Li Qingshan didn't say it anymore, and Ye Zhenyu didn't ask again, the amount of information was too much, and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to digest it for a while......
After being silent for a long time, Li Qingshan found the "Haiaoouba Prophecy" placed next to Ye Zhenyu's pillow, he didn't get up, just glanced at the book, and saw a string of golden characters quickly flying into Li Qingshan's eyebrows, only a moment, Li Qingshan turned his head to look at Ye Zhenyu and said, "What he said is true!" ”
This sentence shocked Ye Zhenyu's heart, and he always felt that Michel was writing a science fiction novel in a special way, but he didn't expect it to be true.
