Section 597 The Five Aggregates and the Practitioner
The Heavenly Demon is among the ten demons, and it can be said that it is a very special existence.
The five aggregates see the slowness as their body, and the infamy and infamy are their appearance.
The five aggregates are: color, receiving, thinking, acting, and knowing.
Buddhists believe that everything in the world is made up of aggregates.
Although this is similar to what cultivators know, the world is based on the vitality of heaven and earth.
The power of the five elements is advanced, so there is a slight difference in the construction.
However, this is not to say that which statement is wrong.
There is nothing wrong with the cognition of Buddhism and Taoism, and this difference is only due to the difference in cultivation system and field of expertise.
Compared with monks, practitioners pay more attention to the cultivation of consciousness.
This is evident from the taboos that practitioners have to strictly observe at each stage of their chakras.
This kind of strict taboo cultivation should run through the practitioner's entire cultivation career.
This kind of cultivation of the state of mind is much more important to practitioners than monks.
In contrast, monks are more focused on practice.
This situation arises in addition to the fact that the two cultivation systems have different emphasis.
The most important thing is that the number of times that the walker has dealt with the ten demons is far more than that of the monk.
In addition to the time when the monk experiences the Heavenly Tribulation, he will encounter the situation of ten demons coming out together.
As long as it is not an extreme situation such as going mad, encountering the Ten Demons is basically rare.
Of course, now these six thieves are also among the special circumstances.
The situation of the walker is very different.
Because of the practice philosophy of Buddhism, it emphasizes walking with the sky.
That is, not to seek immortality, but to conform to the law of reincarnation.
Choose to be in the gap between life and death, continue to practice, and finally complete detachment.
Therefore, compared with monks, practitioners have always looked at the concept of life and death very lightly.
Even the burden that the monk fears can also be treated indifferently with the practitioner.
After all, what a practitioner cultivates is the next life, and what happens in this life is just a foreshadowing.
This is fundamentally different from a cultivator who only talks about this life and does not talk about the next life.
To others, the practitioner's practice seems to be fearless.
After all, reincarnation is only the beginning of the next experience.
Not even afraid of death, there is really nothing to be afraid of.
However, the reality is that this is not the case at all.
Although the walker is not afraid of death, he has a great fear of the Ten Demons.
In the course of a practitioner's cultivation in each lifetime, the probability of them encountering the Ten Demons is tens or hundreds of times higher than that of a monk.
It is precisely because of this that the practitioner's cultivation of the state of mind basically runs through the entire cultivation process.
Those cumbersome taboos on chakra cultivation are not added by people in Buddhism who are idle and bored.
It was to deal with the real threat of the Ten Demons, and he was forced to do so in desperation.
Why do the Ten Demons prefer to entangle and attack the practitioners of the Buddhist Sect, but they do not have much interest in the monks of the Dao Sect?
Combined with the information and the views of many predecessors, Shi Yi has his own opinions on this.
Shi Yi felt that the emergence of this situation should be related to the two major cultivation systems of Taoism and Buddhism.
Buddhism focuses on future lives, so reincarnation is completely unavoidable in the practitioner's cultivation process.
And once you enter reincarnation, no matter who you are, you will be reshaped in reincarnation.
Forgetting the past and starting a new life, this is in the absence of a similar Xie Yuan Sword.
Under this means of preserving long-cherished wisdom, no one can avoid it.
After entering the reincarnation, the practitioner cannot avoid this either.
It's just the power that the walker has.
It allows them to retain memories of their past lives and inherit the strength they possessed in their previous lives.
However, retaining memories and reincarnating are two completely different types.
Under the protection of Su Hui, even after reincarnation, you are still the same you.
Memories can be preserved, but there is a huge difference.
Even if you have memories of your past life, your personality and temperament have changed dramatically.
In this case, the walker who has been reborn after reincarnation.
When people look at the memories of their past lives, they are more like they are looking at other people's experiences.
Even if he knows that these memories come from his past life.
However, this sense of separation between the past life and the present life cannot be erased at all.
Because of this, every time a practitioner experiences a practice, the next reincarnation is like a different person.
In this case, although the same soul is still used.
But after experiencing reincarnation, it's really hard to say whether you can still regard reincarnation as yourself.
The Buddhist practitioners felt that there was no problem with this, but the Taoist monks could not agree with it at all.
As an orthodox monk, Shi Yi also couldn't accept being replaced by others.
Even if this person is his own afterlife, Shi Yi can't accept it.
To get back to the point, Buddhism is a reincarnation type of cultivation.
There is a huge sense of separation between the past life and the present life.
This allows the reincarnated practitioner to inherit the memories and cultivation of the previous life.
However, in terms of realm realization, there is a complete blank.
Even if you have the memories of your past life, you can feel the sense of separation brought about by reincarnation.
Basically, you can define the past life and the present life as two different people.
This makes the realm realizations that have been obtained from cultivation in previous lives simply not be inherited in this life.
After all, when a walker in this world looks at the memories of a past life, it is as if he were looking at someone else's experience.
If the realm realization is to look at the experience of others, you can grasp it.
Shi Yi didn't have to delay in the dream realm for so long, just find a high-level person to listen to the other party's cultivation experience, wouldn't the realm comprehension be able to improve.
If it was really feasible, Shi Yi didn't even need to find someone else, Lin Ao would be able to do the job.
With the realm of the half-step holy womb, how can it be done in one step, and the realm of Shi Yi can be uprooted to the realm of Yuanjue.
Obviously, this is completely impossible.
Realm realizations are completely unteachable, they are different from experience, and can only be gained by experiencing them firsthand.
It's like a frog sitting in a well and watching the sky, if you can't feel the outside world for yourself.
Even if others try their best to make their tongues indestructible, they can't make it feel how big the sky really is.
In this case, the reincarnated practitioner will not be able to obtain the relevant cultivation understanding through the memories of his previous life.
This makes the reincarnated walkers, although their strength has not decreased.
But in terms of realm, it is like a frog sitting in a well and watching the sky, and it has been completely pulled to the lowest point.
Shi Yi felt that this huge contrast between strength and realm comprehension was an important reason why the Ten Demons frequently attacked the Walkers.
After all, no matter who you are, you like to pick up soft persimmons and pinch them.
The Ten Demons, as the karma of heaven and earth, are not living beings in the traditional sense, but they also have the wisdom of demons......
