Chapter 1384: What Is 'I'
When Ponook was secretly sneering on the high platform, a thin, soft-faced and handsome scholar-type angel in a robe floated next to him, his face and expression were like a staff of soft light like water waves in his hand, exuding a strange texture and asking Dongzi: "Why do we live with this sacred tree every day, see it, smell it, touch it every day, and are closely related to it, so we have a contract with it?" Why can't we feel that we are in a contract with it? If we do contract with it, then we should be able to perform the techniques you describe, but none of us will be able to. Dongzi replied, "Because you always define you by things that are not "you." ”
The scholar angel with a soft and towering body had a bright eye and a soft voice: "Why do you say that? What is the content?" I saw Dongzi pick up the teacup in his hand, pointed to the water in it and said: "Is this 'you?' or 'you, is it?'" The fluttering scholar angel's voice was as soft as a wave: "It's not me, and it's not a part of me." ”
Then Dongzi asked again, "Then do you see it, do you feel it?" This question is very strange, as if the wise angel floating in the air can only reply: "Of course I did." So Dongzi asked him to drink the glass of water, and then asked, "Later, you will digest it, absorb it into your body, and integrate it into your blood and body tissues." By that time and now it's 'you, part of it?'
The scholar angel nodded lightly, "Yes, it became a part of me then. So Dongzi answered, "When they melt into your blood, is it still water? When it melts into your skin, is it still water?" replied, "Yes, it is still water, but it is mixed in blood and skin." ”
Dongzi suddenly asked, "Can you feel it now?, what method do you use to feel it?" The other party felt very strange, and pressed his skin with his hand: "As long as you press the skin with your hand, you can feel that the elasticity of the skin comes from water, and without water, we will become ugly mummified corpses." So I can feel it with my sense of touch. ”
And Dongzi repeated the question just now: "So is it now a part of you, or is it not a part of you?" This made the wise angel wonder: "Of course it is a part of me." Dongzi nodded as his words changed sharply: "When it is outside the human body, you perceive it with your vision. It is water. When it's in the human body, you perceive it with your sense of touch. It's still water. It itself has not changed, but why do you perceive it visually and think: it is not a part of me. And when you feel it with your sense of touch, you think: it's a part of me. Look at the food on the table over there. When you perceive it visually, you think: it's not part of me. And when you eat them and feel the body it has become with your sense of touch, you think: it's a part of me. You look at the air around you, and when you perceive it visually, you think: it's not part of me. And when you inhale them and feel them give you strength with your sense of touch, you think: it's a part of me. Why do you have to define me by a tactile part?"
Everyone around them felt that the clouds were deep and foggy, and they didn't know what to do. Only the wise angel was clearly stunned: "Yes, why~~~ Why do you have to use a part of the sense of touch to define 'me,'?" He touched his skin and looked at the food on the table behind him, and heard Dongzi next to him continue: "You touch yourself, you touch and feel, and pass it on to your brain; What is touched is also touched, and the sensation is transmitted to your brain. Then you define the things you touch that bring about these tactile perceptions as 'I,' ”
"When touching this limb, the limb will bring soft, hard, hot and cold touches, so it is assumed that the limb belongs to the category of 'me; Food and water over thereFood and water don't bring soft, hard, hot and cold touches, so let's assume that food and water belong to the category of 'me'. A part of the sense of touch defines the boundaries of 'I!'
"However, doesn't food and water really give us feelings??? when we see the limbs, the limbs give us visual sensations; When we see food and water, food and water give us visual sensations. Why don't we define the category of 'me,' by visual sensations??? or even, why don't we define the category of 'me,' where the mind can reach??? why, 'I, to be limited to a small range by touch, part of touch?"
"Now you feel the food over there with your eyes, and you feel the food, but the food doesn't convey to you feelings, so you don't define the food over there into the category of 'me'. But you and the food are obviously both in zài, and they are obviously changing together in this heaven and earth, and even interacting with each other. Why don't you put it in the category of 'I'?"
Or the other way around - you can see, you can hear, you can smell, you can touch, you can even analyze and think; Obviously, what you see, what you hear, what you smell, what you touch, what you analyze and think, all interact with you, just as the tissues in your body interact with each other. But why do you define ,???'me' by touching, partially?
"I~~~I~~~" The wise angel has gained: "'I,~~~'I, what is it?"
I, after the body and mind function in a certain way, use part of the perception to assume that something is used to connect with a thing. Dongzi said in a deep voice: "However, there are countless ways to connect things with one qiē, and there are countless ways to use perception to assume that 'I'. And a qiē thing does not prescribe: only a partial sense of touch is allowed to define 'I,'.
If you can understand this, then you can shatter the original 'self' with the sense of touch as the core, and the way of defining it can be called 'selflessness.' If we can throw out the perception and use the visual, auditory, olfactory and even thinking information to define the 'me', so that the sight, hearing, smell and even the place where the mind goes are included in the category of 'me', because a qiē is 'me,' therefore, 'I, care for a qiē, just like 'me, care for the body, is the name: great compassion.
The people around were secretly surprised: 'Damn, could it be that this person's brain is also in a mess!), but Dongzi shouted happily: "Yes, yes, yes, grasp the point! The key is this, "I, !", what role does I play in the human body, water, food, and the surrounding environment, in their interactive operation!!
The wise angel closed his eyes and meditated, and after opening his eyes for a long time, he saw that the spiritual light in his eyes was shining, and there were faint signs of upgrading: "The human body has many ways to perceive, and it can generate many feelings. Seeing, hearing, smelling, touching, and even analyzing, abstract and all-encompassing. The human body perceives a lot of information, but only uses a part of it to construct the 'I,'.
This is a method of experiencing all things, which gathers a part of the stimuli that create the zào feeling, creates the zào out of the 'me', and on this basis, defines the other stimuli that create the zào feeling as 'my object thing,'. Then, on this basis, it exerts movement to intervene in the interaction of the human body, water, food, the surrounding environment, and even all things. These are ordinary people, ordinary things. And what you mean is that you can actually experience it in other ways, to construct a whole new 'me', and 'my objects'. Even ~~~ don't use 'me, this method, this kind of tool, but can interact with a qiē everything???"
Suddenly, his own body erupted with a natural brilliance of emerald green and red! It was as if he was the source of creation, rushing out of him thousands of green forests, infinite birds and beasts, and even the natural world of life and death! When the light and shadow stabilized, his robe turned into a large green leaf, forming a natural and beautiful natural robe. His staff turned into a green bamboo, swirling with clouds like mist and light; He was surrounded by rainbows and spirit birds dancing lightly, as if his body was a sacred mountain, standing in front of everyone with the artifact Baohua! And he happily raised his hand and sprinkled a bright streamer mixed with green and purple, and when it flew into the air, it turned into a large area of beautiful light rain, with the 'vitality technique, the effect was scattered on their own angels, goblins, beasts and even carnivorous vines, etc., which immediately boosted their morale and increased their offensive greatly.
With this wave of his hand, it was like a god casting his power, which made everyone look at the wise angel in shock, and even wondered: 'Could it be that he is a top archangel who has been hidden deeply?, and even some doubts such as Junshoutian and Lion's Shoutian: Could it be that he is the messenger or incarnation of God?
He used another beam of 'rebuke elementals, and the bright light hit the bulge of the tree trunk below, and finally trapped the malignant water element inside and couldn't move. However, when the strength of the spell was increased and it was about to be completely expelled, a puff of white smoke suddenly appeared from the trunk of the tree, and it immediately turned into a colorless and transparent atmosphere hidden by the qi element. Went around behind a branch, and when people couldn't see it, they turned into water elements and burrowed into the trunk of the sacred tree, and once again performed a strong 'withering technique, withering technique, and destroying the sacred tree.
The wise angel himself knew the truth: "It's a pity that my skill stops here, and I can't get a glimpse of a more subtle realm." I hope that His Holiness will show it and let us know. Dongzi next to him just replied seriously: "This is the divine domain of the goddess Mei Kaili, and I also have limited ability, so I am afraid that I will get an axe when I use it at will." ”
It is already full of divine light, the green leaves are brilliant, and the rainbow spirit bird is the high and wise angel on the top, just like the guardian angel of this side of the water and soil, when the voice is like a clear flow out of the valley, the morning light shines on the earth, and everyone can't have the idea of opposition: "But it doesn't hurt to do it, the mother goddess has already had an oracle: you need to listen to the teachings of the Venerable." ”
So Dongzi's figure fluttered up, and he let go of the way of defining himself with a partial sense of touch. And then there is no wonder, looking inside and outside the sacred tree, and everywhere the gaze goes, 'I,'; Listen to me, and everywhere you hear is me, and even when you sway out with your consciousness, everything you can realize is me.
