Shen Yun was surprised, and couldn't help but interject again: "Sir, this is also the Dao Heart? Aren't they too selfish? The motivation for cultivation was not pure from the beginning." ”

I want to become a human being and live the most privileged life in the world...... Wouldn't it be true that the deeper the cultivation is, the more selfish it will be?

Yunjing Daoist hehe: "Selfish? Why are you selfish? Cultivation is originally your own business, and when children think about practicing for themselves, how can they say that their motives are not pure? What's more, if people don't do it for themselves, heaven and earth will be destroyed." It's just that some six-year-old children, can they expect them to have a deep understanding of the Dao? To realize that in order to be a great immortal, they must practice diligently, and to be able to put it into practice, they can already be regarded as having a firm mind and an extraordinary Dao heart. As for the future......" He lowered his eyes and looked at the tea bowl in his hand, and suddenly there was a little more stunned in his words, and he said lightly, "There are three thousand avenues, and there are ten sons and ten phases. Individuals have their own fate, and what the Dao heart is, it all depends on their own cultivation. In short, the past is the cause, and the future is the effect. The path of cultivation is all done by oneself. All cause and effect are conceited. ”

It is precisely because everyone believes that "if people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed", so many people's temperament is becoming more and more lonely, and they have developed the temperament of unscrupulous means to achieve the goal...... Thinking of those who did not hesitate to use all means in order to snatch resources, but still regarded themselves as cultivating the true path, he suddenly found that he had nothing to say in the face of this question of the lord, and he also had a question in his heart: Is it really because of the impure motives from the beginning?

That's the benefit of the Word. Through mutual communication, you can not only gain a lot of knowledge, but also expose some of your own shortcomings. At this moment, Daoist Yunjing found that his confidence at this moment was obviously insufficient, and he could only generally attribute it to the all-encompassing nature of the Great Dao and karma.

And Shen Yun also found that his words were even vague, and he pondered it several times in his heart, and said in his heart: It turns out that Mr. also disagrees. It's just that Mr. doesn't know this well for the time being.

Thinking of this, he decided to skip the question, raised his head, and asked again, "Sir, what you just said is the lowest level of the Dao heart. So, what is the higher level?"

"Oh. Daoist Yunjing quickly came back to his senses. He was a little embarrassed. As the main speaker of the Tao, he was actually distracted just now. The old face was slightly red, he said "I'm sorry", and talked about the past, "After the spiritual root is measured, the children will be sent to the sect." Children with good qualifications will be selected by the Damen Sect, and may even become the personal disciples of the great powers. The children with poor qualifications have two choices, one is to take the entrance examination of the Great Gate Sect, and it is possible to be admitted to the inner disciple, and no matter how bad it is, they will become an outer disciple, and the other is to go to the small sect with an unknown reputation and become an inner disciple. ”

"My father's qualifications are comparable to those of the poor Dao. Back then, my father's choice was to go to a small sect and be an inner disciple. As a result, after 50 years of practice, I built the foundation three times, all of which ended in failure. There is a rule in Xianmen, that is, for students who have practiced for more than 50 years and have not succeeded in building the foundation three times, their teachers have the right to persuade them to quit. As a result, my father was persuaded to retire and return home. That is, it was labeled as a hopeless immortal path. ”

"Monks like this, if they come out of a Xiuzhen family, they usually help the family to take care of the chores, reproduce their offspring, and place their hopes on the future generations; If you can't go back, there's no point in going back. Often, they are either reduced to casual cultivation, or they choose another favorite place, buy a little land, marry a wife, have children, and spread their branches. After his father traveled for three years, he settled in Monan.

"Poor Dao is his only child. When the same spiritual root was measured, a well-known Zhuji elder in a small local sect took a fancy to me and was willing to accept me as a personal disciple. This is a very glorious thing for us. I didn't want to, but my father politely declined. And sold his family fortune as quickly as possible, and took me all the way to Xuantianmen to participate in the entrance exam. The day before the entrance exam, my father had a long talk with me, and after talking about his life's experiences, he concluded that he thought that he would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail, but he paid the price of his life for this wrong understanding. He didn't want me to go down his old path again. At that time, Xuantianmen ranked fifth among the ten major sects. My father said frankly that Xuantianmen was not the best choice, but his ability was limited, and he could only send me to Xuantianmen nearby. ”

"As a result, my qualifications are not good, my family background is not obvious, and my performance in the entrance exam is mediocre, and I became an outer disciple of Xuantianmen without accident. At the time, I was disappointed as a young child. He didn't do it with his own disciples, but he became an ordinary disciple who was raised in the outer gate...... I was even annoyed with my father. Obviously, my father lived in a small town not far from Xuantianmen, but I didn't think about visiting him. It wasn't until three years later, when I successfully broke through the Qi Refining Realm, reflected on my own cultivation path, and compared my father's back then, that I realized that my father's choice was right. I regretted not being at the beginning, and after entering the master's gate, I asked for leave for the first time and visited my late father outside. Fortunately, my father's body is still strong. Because I am a disciple of Xuantianmen, my neighbors have not excluded me. ”

Ten years later, my father ran out of life and passed away. You can't build a foundation for the rest of your life, and you can't stop at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm. And I, with the same qualifications, at the age of one hundred and eighty-nine, produced a golden pill. ”

Shen Yun was confused before. The gentleman obviously didn't answer the question. But seeing that Mr. had a solemn face, completely caught up in the memories of the past, he couldn't bear to interrupt it, but listened patiently.

I don't want to, but the more I listen, the more I feel: in the fairy mountain, the life of the monks is actually not fundamentally different from the mortals in the mundane. They are also fighting for survival. Therefore, he questioned the impurity of the children's cultivation motives in Xianshan before, which seemed to be how extreme.

As Mr. said before, apart from those who are born immortals, who in the world is born to be strong? Which one has not become strong little by little through their own efforts? So, at the beginning of cultivation, what is wrong with admiring the strong and wanting to be the same strong person? What is wrong with a six-year-old child practicing with such a purpose?

Speaking of which, it's him who is wrong. He always had the idea that mortals were weak, and he was too demanding of the monks.

After realizing this, he choked his heart and said: Shen Yun, such a weak person's mentality is the most unacceptable. Since you want thousands of mortals to practice on an equal footing with the monks with spiritual roots, then you must completely abandon the theory of qualifications. Mortals who don't have spiritual roots can still practice. Therefore, mortals are never weak.

After reversing his mentality, and listening to Daoist Yunjing's self-description, he gradually tasted another meaning—Mr. wanted to use his own and his father's cultivation experience to show that the Damen Sect was different from the Small Sect in helping his disciples establish Dao Hearts. We in the Aoki sect can learn from the successful experience in it, so that the disciples can avoid detours at the beginning of their cultivation.
