Chapter 60: Breaking through the Realm of Executives
They all nodded first, and said, "Seeing your appearance, the island owner must not have taught you, and the mantra of sitting and forgetting is much shorter than Xinzhai. Oh, listen up...... The secret of sitting and forgetting: degrading the limbs, degrading the wisdom, detaching from the form to know, and passing through the chase, this is called sitting and forgetting. 」
Yuan Hao was startled, and said, "Fall into limb, depreciate your intelligence, chop off your hands and feet, and don't rely on your intelligence, then ...... Am I not going to be a waster?"
Before he could realize the true meaning of the words, his face was already pale, thinking that this "sitting and forgetting" was really evil, no wonder the island owner's grandfather did not teach himself in time, he must have been afraid that he would impulsively waste his hands and feet, and since then he has not relied on his head and intelligence, and has become a big waste person.
At the moment, from his cranky thoughts, he only cared about the one-sided danger of his hands and feet being wasted and throwing away his talents, and completely forgot that this free and easy to settle down trick was taken from the Taoist classics by the ancestors of Yinghai Island, and the Taoist classics have always been poor and profound, and the literal meaning is often not a great truth that ordinary people can understand.
The Taoist says, "Absolute benevolence and abandonment of wisdom", but if you really want to be absolutely wise, and you must be absolutely benevolent, the words are truly understood, and they have never been explained by common sense.
All of them rushed to be the first and said angrily: "No one wants you to cut off your hands and feet and become a waste that doesn't move your head. The surname Yuan, the so-called fallen limbs, refers to forgetting the shackles of the body. If we can forget the body, regard the mind as a part of all things in heaven and earth, and unite the underworld, the qi extraction will naturally be able to get twice the result with half the effort, much faster. And the so-called deprecating wisdom means to abandon the eyes and ears to bring external desires and connections, and truly reach the state of selflessness. 」
He continued, "Recite the mantra of the heart fast. 」
Although Yuan Hao didn't know the reason in his heart, he still obediently thought of a mantra and said: "If you have a will, you don't listen to it with your ears, but listen to it with your heart, and you don't listen to it with your heart, but you listen to it with your breath: listen to your ears, and your heart stops at Fu. Those who are angry are also those who are empty and treat things, only the Tao gathers emptiness, and those who are empty are fasting. 」
"Fortunately, you still have the brains to forget these mantras. Seeing that Yuan Hao's face was full of anger and he wanted to step forward desperately, he continued: "I won't say the meaning of the back, but first say the previous words, what do you say without listening to your ears? To put it bluntly, don't just listen with your ears, that is, the three words 'depress wisdom' here. It just so happens that this place is used to practice "sitting and forgetting", which is very suitable. 」
He slowly got up, stretched his waist, and said with a smile, "Now, I will teach you the method of sitting and forgetting, so that you can become a real martial artist. At the moment, the method of sitting and forgetting was slowly explained to Yuan Hao.
Yuan Hao listened carefully, couldn't help but be excited, took a deep breath, and when his chest was full of air, he couldn't breathe anymore, so he held his breath, his head buzzed low, and he felt a dry mouth, as if there was a thin veil in front of him, just one step forward, stepping through the shackles, he could touch the new world that he had never stepped into and seen so far, and he was faintly excited.
He muttered frequently, "Don't hear with your ears, don't hear with your ears only, so put away your ears and eyes, and that is to be disgraced...... Fall off your limbs, throw away your ears and eyes, and forget your body, and realize the Truth......
Yuan Hao has lived on Yinghai Island since he was a child, and has been in contact with a lot of Taoist truths, and those island owners, grandfathers, and older generations will reflect the realm of Taoism from time to time, so there is not much difficulty in understanding these Taoist thoughts, but it still takes a while to think about breaking the concept of long-term habits and details.
The islanders of Yinghai Island learned this easy and calm trick, especially the most difficult to achieve the initial "sit and forget", and they all rushed to understand this principle, so they were silent and did not speak, only pillowed their arms, looked at the stars in the sky for a while, and glanced quietly at the sky for a while. He knows very well that the first step of "sitting and forgetting" can be as little as an hour or as many as several days, and whether or not he can successfully enter the meditation of forgetting everything depends not on intelligence, but on fate. Sometimes this fate comes quickly, sometimes slowly, and no one knows when it will come.
Yuan Hao meditated quietly, feeling the tranquility and silence of the small realm, thinking about the mantra of sitting and forgetting, and feeling the changes around him.
But after sitting for a while, it was difficult for his heart to settle down, and he felt a commotion in his chest, and two hours passed quietly, during this time, although he did not move, he still had no clue how to sit and forget.
The martial artists of the Central Plains believe in martial arts, and it is very simple to practice the method of extracting qi from ordinary people to the realm of executors. However, as a native of Yinghai Island, Yuan Hao does not believe in martial arts, and the method of extracting qi that he practices is also the method of extracting qi that is not recognized by martial arts. It is almost more difficult to step into the realm of the executive from ordinary people.
Yuan Hao really didn't know what to do at the moment, his eyebrows were wrinkling deeper and deeper, and he wanted to stabilize his mood, but his thoughts were disordered, and it was difficult for him.
Suddenly, a cool breeze with spring came slowly, and he was startled by this gust of wind, and was slightly stunned, thinking that this small realm was no different from the outside world, regardless of the climate, the sky, and all the natural scenes. I continued to hear the wind in my ears, and at that time, I had a flash of inspiration, and I understood, and said, "Yes, yes! Between the five senses, the ears and eyes are the first to receive, and they are all information related to desire. 」
Just as sitting and forgetting needs the traction of fate, this moment of comprehending the mystery of centering is not a stroke of fate flying from the sky?
Yuan Hao hurriedly stepped back, regardless of the surprised faces on the side, they all rushed to be the first, rearranged their clothes, sat down quietly, this time silently recited the mantra of "sit and forget" in his heart, while recalling the situation of practicing "Xinzhai" on the island, only to feel that everything was smooth and unblocked, and his heart was precipitated, as if diving into a bottomless pool of water, the more calm and stable, and soon, he threw away all external sounds.
They all rushed to stare at it, and they were amazed in their hearts, and thought, "This strange boy also has a way, so this is settled? I think I was going to sit and forget, but it would be a lot of trouble. It's easy to do, but it's very difficult to do. Imagine that life is in the world, there is no sound everywhere, how can ordinary people say that they can easily throw away the sound habits?
But the small realm that Yuan Hao and the others are in at this time, there are only flowers and forests, the sound of gurgling water, except for the white fox, there is no half animal to see, it is really a good place to practice, and it is very suitable for practicing 'sitting and forgetting'.
Yuan Hao was in a mist and mist, only to feel that his body became as light as a feather, as if he had the ability to soar the clouds and drive the fog, and he was in the clouds and mist, after a few breaths, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart, and suddenly felt that the shape was not so important, nature, the avenue, the heaven and the earth were sometimes on his side, sometimes far away in the sky, if he was away, it was elusive.
At this moment, the fluttering feeling disappeared inexplicably, as if it was scattered by someone, and like the cook scattered the egg flowers in the pot, something around him was approaching him, and it turned to a treacherous, shocking huge energy, surveying and enveloping the whole body, getting closer and closer, and the energy wrapped around the body, as if to eat away at the limbs, torso, and mind, and it was fast and unstoppable.
