In this dark environment, I lost the concept of time. Under the guidance of the old man, I gradually mastered the key and essence of meditation.
Although I am in this dark cellar, my consciousness has been to the grasslands, valleys, forests and seasides...
"You are really smart. In such a short period of time, you were able to easily enter the spiritual realm you built!" There was a different excitement in his voice than at the beginning.
"That's because you taught me well." I flattered.
"Now that you have basically mastered it, you can try meditating on your own."
I have been meditating under his guidance. I lay down and relaxed my whole body, from the tips of my toes to my hair, and then concentrated on building my own spiritual realm.
The first thing I thought of was my bedroom. God moved me and I opened the bedroom door.
The fan of the computer host is still humming. Next to the mouse is a Coke I haven't finished drinking. I forgot to screw on the lid. There is a game that just ended on the screen. There is also a May 3rd simulation open next to the table. I move forward. After taking a few steps, it turned out to be a hyperbolic question.
My consciousness condensed again. I exited the door and moved my perspective to a square balcony. In the corner was a blue stroller that my sister used to ride in when she was a child. On the windowsill of the balcony, there was a crab claw plant that my grandma liked. There is a bicycle standing against the wall, but it is not mine.
I looked out the window and saw that the buildings were so close together! The windows opposite were covered with newspapers, making it difficult to see inside the windows, but the layer above was clearly visible.
The balcony is the same as mine, but the windows are not sealed. A large piece of ornamental jade sculpture is placed on the outer edge of the dilapidated balcony, which is in sharp contrast to the surrounding dilapidated environment. There were plants growing on the balcony, and I distinguished them carefully.
Oh my God, these plants are actually corals.
I know this is a journey of my consciousness, but these are things I have never thought about or seen. Where is this place? Why is my consciousness concentrated in this place?
There are nearly ten corals here, each one is as big as a 60-inch TV. I looked at each one carefully, they are so beautiful. If this is true, it is definitely worth a lot of money.
There is also a large jar placed in the corner of the balcony. It is as tall as a person and looks like it is made of pottery. What is it used for? I wonder. At this moment, I saw a head quickly retracting from the mouth of the clay pot! I was shocked!
Because the old man said that the world of my consciousness is only myself, so what do I see?
I wanted to look further inside. Lying outside the balcony and looking through the window inside the balcony, I saw another figure flashing past. My heart is pounding!
I calmed down and realized that this time was different from the past. When I lost consciousness before, I would return to the real world. But now I have started to have random thoughts in my mind, but the scene in front of me has not changed at all!
I could clearly see that the figure turned out to be a plastic mannequin with a leather coat draped over it, and behind the model, there were even more shadowy figures, all of which were models with various leather coats hanging on them!
I feel like there is an evil atmosphere in this room. People's sixth sense is a very magical thing. When you feel dangerous, it must be dangerous!
I wanted to end this meditation, but when I turned around, there was a middle-aged woman in her forties or fifties standing next to me. She was wearing a rose-red down jacket, her hair was messy and tied into a ponytail, and she was carrying a satchel in her hand.
"Didn't you listen to what I just told you?"
the woman asked me.
I am getting more and more nervous, something is wrong, I must stop meditating immediately!
"ah?"
Was she talking to me just now? Why can't I hear a word clearly?
The woman's mouth opened and closed, which made me feel uneasy and bored. She even held my arm and talked even more excitedly.
"I'm leaving!" I shouted to her.
But she held on to my arm tightly and wouldn't let go. She was so strong that she didn't look like a thin and wizened old woman.
This is my spiritual realm, can I still let her control it?
"Let me go!" I shouted loudly. Instead of letting go, she used both hands to wrap me around her body, hugging me tightly. Her dry hands strangled me until it hurt. The pain was so real. , my whole body was numb.
As her strength increased, my consciousness became less and less. I was still calling for help, but I tried my best to make it become nothing more than a whisper.
Just when I was about to hit the bottom, a force suddenly gathered in my body! I took a deep breath and yelled something I didn't understand, like a scripture or a mantra.
In the last remaining consciousness, I felt the tight grip on my body gradually loosen.
In the haze, there was a pair of cold and soft hands touching my face...
I opened my eyes, and the surroundings were still dark, but it seemed different from before...
I thought for a while and realized that my surroundings were no different, it was just that I could actually see in this darkness now!
I saw the box on the ground, my hands, the scars on my hands, the shape of the barbed wire, and the woman squatting next to me, looking at me with concern.
"Who are you?!" Wasn't the person who spoke to me before this an old man? I was sure it was an old man, and I was deeply impressed by his sandpaper-like hands. It was definitely not the beautiful woman in front of me!
"Where is the old man? Where has he gone?!" I asked her.
The woman in front of her did not wear makeup, but she had deep facial features, a small and delicate nose, a small cherry mouth, her hair was braided, and she was wearing a turtleneck sweater and tight pants.
"Are you feeling better?"
Her voice was so soft and sweet, and my anxious heart seemed to calm down a lot.
"My name is Wen Na, you asked me to come here."
"Did I call you?" I remembered the inexplicable words I said.
"Yes, it was that spell that summoned me."
"Summoning? Are you... a human or a ghost!"
She stretched out her hand and let me feel her pulse. She was indeed a living person...
"I can see it. It was so dark here before."
Wen Na looked around and said to me in her pleasant voice, "They are trying to keep you in seclusion, but why are you so extreme?"
"Seclusion?" I didn't know why.
"Yes, this is a secret method of cultivation. Maybe you know Buddhism and Taoism, right?"
I nodded. "The Black Pass is the most superior secret method of cultivation in both Buddhism and Taoism. It is the last level of Dzogchen practice - 'Black Light Wisdom Illumination'. This is a top-level meditation method, but it must be performed by the person who has attained the Tao. Protect the gate."
"For seven days and seven nights, the environment required by this secret method is without any light, so that you can't see anything. When there is no difference between opening your eyes and closing them, you will have no choice but to face your own subconscious. You Will face fear and ignore time.”
"But I can see now."
I looked down at my hands, and I could indeed see it, otherwise how would I know she was a beautiful woman.
"This method is also very risky. If there is no one to guard the barrier, it is very easy to go crazy and get into trouble. Especially, you are passively locked here, which will breed your fear and make you hallucinate."
"Hallucination?" I thought of the old man and his strange voice. Could he be my hallucination? Is it my inner demon?
"That old man is not an illusion, he is just a spirit." She seemed to know that I was going to ask her about the old man, so she answered me directly.
I am even more confused. He is not an illusion, but is he a spirit?
"He has always been here, but you couldn't see him at the beginning. In the dark level, you unknowingly opened the link between gods and gods, so you saw him. To put it in a layman's terms, he is Living ghost."
"Ghost!" I was shocked!
"Then where is he now? Why can't I see him again?"
"He annihilated."
"Annihilation?"
"He must have been trapped here for a long time. He happened to meet you and coveted your body, so he guided you to the place of exile for spiritual consciousness. If you were imprisoned in that spiritual realm at that time, you would never return. If you don’t come, you will always be lingering there..."
"Am I going to die?"
"It's not considered dead. You can still breathe, and you can still eat and drink, but you are no longer you, and your soul is no longer yours, and he may abandon his rotten body and occupy yours."
I broke out in a cold sweat!
"But I still don't understand. He also said that I am locked up here because... I am a Yuanren?"
"Your body is his chance to continue to survive. He may have lost his body in this way, so his soul is trapped here. This refuge is far more complicated than what you see. Even I am here. Need to hide, it’s dangerous here!”
"As to whether you are a Yuanren or not, I am certain that you are!" Her voice was very firm!
I look at myself, and there seems to be nothing special about me except that I can ignore the darkness.
"The energy of Yuan people needs to be awakened. What you need now is time. But once others know that you are Yuan people, they will stare at you like Tang Monk's meat. They may experiment on you, test you, and do other things. Things I couldn’t even imagine.”
"Including occupying my body?"
The woman named Wen Na nodded.
"You said I asked you to come, but who are you? Can you take me out?"
"I can guide you, but if you want to really leave here, you have to rely on yourself, because my existence here is not stable. We don't have much time!"
