The sudden change caught everyone off guard. When they recovered from the panic, they found that the weapons in their hands had been taken away.
"This, this, this" The old monk Yongtang and others who were watching the battle probably did not expect this result. Almost everyone's eyes bulged out when they saw this scene, and their faces were full of disbelief.
Among these people, the most surprised one should be Taoist Xuanming. He stared at the pile of swords at my feet, his face was gray, and his whole body was trembling.
From this reaction, I can guess one thing or two, maybe he has great expectations for this sword formation. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, the people in Xuanmen should be unstoppable. But the reality is cruel. In front of me, this thing is just like a child playing house and can be broken easily.
"But just now I just stepped on it and didn't actually launch an attack. Otherwise, those disciples would have died long ago."
I didn¡¯t care how surprised the Xuanmen people around me were. At this moment, I had already returned home.
"You're back!?" Seeing me appearing at the door of the house, my mother moved her mouth a few times, but in the end she didn't say anything more.
"Mom, I'm really fine, don't worry." Seeing my mother like this made me feel a little guilty. It was obvious that they were worried about me, but they also understood that this son was different from other children and could not help at all. They could only hide their worries to prevent me from being distracted.
But, as a Taoist, I see everything clearly.
Life goes on as usual, as it should be
In the next few days, the surrounding area became much cleaner. At least I didn¡¯t feel any prying eyes from other practitioners.
After staying in Qinghe County for a while, I returned to Balipo Village.
The world outside is changing with each passing day, but everything in Balipo Village remains the same. There are still endless fields and tall green trees. I even remember whose property the land belongs to. But I also know that flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year.
Change and immutability are sometimes not just philosophical issues, but life is also involved.
Staying in this small mountain village makes it easier for you to meditate.
It was late at night, the moon was bright, and the breeze was refreshing. I hugged Ah Huang and stepped onto the mountains outside the village step by step. The vast night and rolling mountains add a lot of tranquility to the entire mountain village.
Whenever your mind moves, every plant, tree, bird and beast inside and outside Bali Slope comes into your mind and is clearly visible.
At this moment, I more clearly sensed that there was a mysterious existence in the distant void which had some kind of connection with me and resonated with me.
At the same time, the golden scissors in the body are also eager to move, exuding an indescribable aura.
Looking up at the deep starry sky, I can clearly see and capture the nearby Lunar Star, the farther Yinghuo, and even the distant Milky Way. It seems that from above, streams of spiritual energy, vitality of heaven and earth, or the power of stars are constantly being thrown towards the earth.
Affect each other, entangle each other, form heaven and humanity These want to give the mystery of people in Xuanmen, waiting to be solved.
"Huh" I took a long breath and started practicing.
I can feel that I am only a few steps away from the six orifices, as if I am about to leap into a new realm in the next moment.
Life in the countryside is simple and indifferent, and before you know it, more than ten days have passed.
That night, I woke up from my sleep, called Ah Huang, stepped into the mountain, and ran straight towards the ** Valley.
Entering the valley, I sat down cross-legged. Within a few breaths, the vitality of the whole body was already surging in the body. Limbs and bones, internal organs, hair and muscles In short, every tiny existence in the body is vibrating in turn at a certain frequency. These vibrations are superimposed together and transmitted into the void, causing the surrounding air to move accordingly.
Originally, I was in a state of unified mind and could not notice the changes in the outside world at all. However, at this moment, everything around me was clearly imprinted in my mind, just like watching a movie with my eyes closed.
"The whole body should be governed by one god, and one god should lead the whole body. Only when the body and mind are united in one place can one be the autonomous person. My god dominates my body, and my body has its own god. The divine machine responds to all changes, and the wonderful way transforms into the true body."
At this moment, my essence, energy, and spirit are highly integrated. In my ears, I can hear the chirping of summer insects, and even the croaking of frogs from further away. A hare runs past the valley On a big tree halfway up the mountain opposite, Two night birds are perched.
The sound was very mixed at first, then became indistinct, and then gradually became clear again. This situation was like a strange dream. In the end, the sound turned into countless Taoist priests reciting mantras in their ears. It was so majestic and endless It made people feel ethereal, and the next moment it seemed that their souls were about to break out of their bodies.
Vision, hearing, tasteall kinds of things are present in the body.??reaction. I just kept sitting cross-legged and meditating, breathing in and out. I don¡¯t know how long it took, but suddenly my body emitted a strange fragrance. The 36,000 pores all over my body were like a baby¡¯s mouth. The small mouth opened and closed, spewing out something belonging to a newborn baby. The unique fragrance makes people feel that their thoughts are clear and their style is unique when they smell it. In the morning, the sound of birds woke me up again.
As soon as I took a breath and opened my eyes, I suddenly felt that my vitality was expanding to every part of my body. His mind was extremely clear, and every cell in his body seemed to be cheering and celebrating his new life. "Is this the six orifices open to me?!" I lowered my head and looked at myself, and found that my skin was a bit fairer than before. When you have something in your mind, you can feel the changes around you with little need to extend your spiritual consciousness. It is so meticulous that even the tracks of a few ants crawling on the tree are nowhere to be seen.
There are many records in the Taoist books I have read before. In ancient times, those who achieved Taoism and reached a certain level of cultivation would often have visions in their hearts, or fairy sounds lingering, or the room filled with fragrance.
I used to think it was ridiculous, but now I realize it¡¯s true. As long as one's own body is cleansed by vitality and dirt is driven away, and the whole inside and outside of the person is as pure as water, such a phenomenon will naturally occur.
The so-called "opening the six orifices" refers to one's own changes.
There are many similar descriptions in books before the Han and Tang dynasties, but only a few during the Song and Ming dynasties, and after that, there are no records.
???????????????????????????? I suddenly discovered that what I thought was wrong. Since the Yuan Dynasty, although it is rare for ascetics to reach the realm of opening the six orifices, it is not impossible. Why are there no records of these visions in the book?
There must be a deviation here, or is it because there is a difference between aura and vitality?
Walking out of the mountains, my grandma was constantly surprised when I appeared in the village: "Xiao Hao, didn't you go to the county town a few days ago? Why are you back again?"
"A few days ago? Oh, I felt uncomfortable when I went to the county town, and I wanted to go back to the village." I suddenly realized that my six orifices might last for a long time.
¡°That¡¯s right, the county town has nothing better than cars and people.¡± Grandma smiled happily after hearing this.
After staying at home for two full months, everything was normal except for a few unsighted Taoist people who came to the door.
School starts, a new semester begins.
My final exam scores were good, and I was among the top ten in the class, which was considered to have met my parents¡¯ requirements. So after school started, I proposed that I plan to live outside the school. My parents initially disagreed, but they agreed after my persuasion. The conditions are the same as last time, and the performance cannot decline.
?For me, it's too easy.
Going to school, practicing Taoismthe days are like water, and two more years pass by in a blink of an eye.
In the past two years, many Taoist people came to ask for advice, and some even had malicious intentions and threatened their family members. I was not polite about this, and after killing a few groups quickly, those people finally became much more honest.
Of course, their strategies have changed, and many sects have sent young disciples into the school, hoping to benefit from me in a step-by-step manner.
To this, I can only turn a blind eye. If others do not offend me, I will not offend others.
As for approaching me and asking, that¡¯s out of the question. It's not selfish, but it's humane that I haven't figured it out yet, so what can I tell others about it?
In the eyes of many classmates, I am still the same Su Hao, who plays basketball well, has good academic performance, and has a beautiful girlfriend. Other than that, there's nothing special about it.
The college entrance examination is over in July, and my three-year high school career has come to an end.
Our college entrance examination system has changed a lot this year. You can fill in the support form after the exam is over.
Lin Qingqing and I applied for the same school, while Zheng Shaoyang applied for a university in city B according to family arrangements.
The world is full of dust, and the world is full of disputes. Those who practice Taoism must blend in with the world and be the same as the dust, bear the yin and embrace the yang, use the light to return to the light, and then they can transcend the world
For ordinary people, a few years is a long time.
But for me, this is like waking up from a big dream, and all the experiences in the world are all illusions in the dream.
The university courses are slack and I have more free time.
Every day after class, I hold hands with Lin Qingqing and walk around the campus with Lin Qingqing, and go to the canteen to get food at the right time The deeper I am, the more precious I feel about ordinary life.
In a few years, I went from opening the six orifices straight into the realm of heart-burning fire. I originally thought it would be as thrilling as Taoist Sanyang, but unexpectedly it turned out to be calm and everything fell into place.
"Actually, I have already felt that maybe there is a difference between me and other ascetics when we have access to the six orifices. The vitality of heaven and earth can temper itself, but the tempering of spiritual energy is incomplete precisely because there are too many impurities in it.So accidents only happen when the heart is burning.
Nowadays, although I rarely breathe, I find that my realm is gradually improving.
Nowadays, when I practice Taoism, I pay more attention to cultivating my mind. As for breathing, sitting quietly and meditating, these are just appearances and are no longer so important.
Cultivation of the Tao requires one to have no concern for the environment and have a mind as still as water. All acquired consciousness must be eliminated. If the sweep of the mind is not pure, when a good scene appears, the thought will arise, just like clouds covering the moon, the scene will be lost and it will be difficult to find it. Therefore, you must pay attention to stopping your thoughts, calming your mind, and tempering your temperament. As the saying goes, "If the human heart does not die, the Tao mind will not arise. Only when the human heart recedes can the Tao mind be seen."
The Buddhists say that achieving great enlightenment and becoming a Buddha by seeing one¡¯s nature are the merits of one¡¯s mind.
Taoism talks about longevity and long-term vision, the unity of life and Tao, which is the dual cultivation of life and life. I didn¡¯t know how many spiritual books I read, and I quickly put these spiritual books aside completely.
??Especially recently, I pay more attention to some Western philosophical thoughts. (To be continued.
