However, in fact, everything you see is just an illusion derived from nature or innate energy.
And your solidified cognition is like a dirty dark cloud, covering your innate energy, so you cannot achieve Buddhahood and escape from reincarnation.
You are not you when you think you are.
You are you when you think you are not you.
Everyone in the world thinks that their body and mind are themselves, which is completely wrong.
Remember, your true self is neither your mind nor your body.
Rather, it is the origin of the universe, the innate Qi, which comes from nature and is hidden in the deepest part of the soul.
Regardless of whether you are a Taoist or Buddhist practitioner, the purpose and method of cultivation is to shatter all perceptions of the three-dimensional world and not be attached to any thoughts or illusions.
Only in this way can the Tathagata nature deep in one's soul be revealed, and the innate energy of the universe be integrated to achieve the ultimate goal of immortality and escape from the six paths of reincarnation.
So why can Buddhas and Bodhisattvas escape from reincarnation?
It is because they do not cling to any illusions and do not recognize any illusions.
All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be observed as such.
This is just like my method of meditation, observing the thoughts coming and going, not clinging to them, not following them, not giving any definition to the thoughts, and not acknowledging all the knowledge the thoughts have about the world.
At this time, the Tathagata nature in the soul will be revealed, thus breaking away from the shackles of the six paths of reincarnation and returning to the one true Dharma realm.
That is a perfect world without reincarnation, pain and trouble.
However, even if you have any persistence and desire for knowledge, don't even think about escaping from reincarnation.
Because your innate Qi will evolve your virtual world based on your thoughts, the real world is just a projection of your inner consciousness, a phantom.
When you think your world is real, then you can only suffer in reincarnation forever.
When you think your life is miserable, then your life will definitely not be happy, and vice versa.
Only when one does not recognize or cling to any mental illusions, the solidified cognition will be peeled off layer by layer like an onion, and it will appear naturally as if it comes from nature, that is, the innate Qi.
This is the principle behind my practice of the Four Zen and Eight Concentrations. The more perceptions I break, the less I will cling to any thought.
If the self-nature is revealed, the more it will manifest. Finally, when the physical body is seated, the soul will no longer be bound by cognition and attachment, thereby achieving the purpose of escaping from the six paths of reincarnation.
Everyone's soul is derived from innate Qi, which is the origin and the foundation of Tao.
Just like what Lao Tzu said, Tao gives birth to one, gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.
The innate Qi is Tao, and it is it that gives birth to all things in the universe and all sentient beings.
Everything is energy, and the same is true for innate Qi, but the content of this Qi in each person's soul is not much.
But even so, if you can let the innate Qi occupy the dominant position in the soul and manifest it.
Then, you will unlock the great wisdom of life, achieve whatever you want, and even have the possibility of enlightenment and becoming a Buddha.
But I never expected that Zen would actually say that this demon was absorbing the innate energy from the souls of the villagers.
This is the origin of the universe. It shocked me so much. As a result, the purpose and grand conspiracy of the Evil God Church are much greater than I imagined.
I originally thought that I had explored some of the purposes of the Evil God Church, but I didn't expect that I had only explored the tip of the iceberg.
Moreover, innate Qi is the original energy of the universe, the highest energy, and it can be absorbed. What secret method did they use?
I dare to say that there is no sect or powerful individual that can absorb the original energy from other people's souls. This really subverts my three views and is shocking to my heart.
Also, what is their purpose of absorbing the source? If they use it to do bad things, the consequences will be disastrous.
"This matter is of great importance." Zen's voice came again solemnly, "It is estimated that this evil church has a powerful secret method to do this. The purpose behind it must be shocking. You should kill this devil first."
"Huh..." After hearing this, I took out a deep breath, my body was shaking a little, and then I told Hongdan that I could devour this devil.
However, I am very curious about what the devil is, why it can enhance the energy in the red egg, and why only the red egg can detect the devil. But now is not the time to dwell on these things, I am going to ask about it later.
Hong Dan asked me to pick up the devil's head in the coffin. After I did so, a terrifying suction force burst out in my mind, following my arm to the devil's head.
"Ahhhh..."
The demon inside opened its mouth and let out a silent roar. Although the sound could not be heard, the roar must have been extremely shrill, and his eyes were even more frightened.
But the next moment, the demon exploded and turned into a wisp of dark purple gas, which was absorbed by the red egg along my arm. I clearly felt that the energy in the red egg was stronger.
"This, what is this?" Xing Baole suddenly exclaimed.
I saw the demon head in my hand suddenly emitting dozens of golden hair-like threads.
"This is innate energy!" I exclaimed inwardly, breathing rapidly, and subconsciously reached out to grab it.
But he couldn't catch it, and the innate energy quickly penetrated into the souls of the four villagers. This was something that belonged to them.
After breaking away from the shackles of the devil, the innate energy automatically returned to its original form.
But at this moment, the souls of the villagers, who were originally expressions of pain, gradually lost their distortion.
Their eyes gradually became brighter, and after a while they all woke up, looked at me in surprise, and let out bursts of exclamations.
"Where is this, this is, am I dead?"
"Boy, who are you? Let me out. Where is this?"
"Why am I in a state of soul now? What is going on? Am I really dead?"
After the demon controlled the souls of the three villagers, they obviously lost all consciousness. Even if they were dead and ingested the innate energy, they did not know at all.
At this moment, they acted very frightened and frightened, and even more sad, unable to accept the fact of their own death.
"Jinhua? Are you Jinhua?" Xiao Zheng suddenly looked at Xu Jinhua, who was standing next to me with a sad face, and said in shock: "You, why are you in a state of soul, are you also dead? You, your belly ..."
Xiao Zheng stared at Xu Jinhua's suppressed stomach and said: "Our child, where is the child? Is the child still alive? Was he born? Impossible. The child is only eight months old. How did you die? The child died too. Yet?"
Xiao Zheng became irritable and restless.
"Oh, oh, oh, Xiao Zheng, I, I, our child..." Xu Jinhua burst into tears, fell to the ground, and shed two lines of bloody tears.
"Hey." I took out the Qiankun Whip from my backpack and looked at her and said, "Xu Jinhua, you, the villagers and Xiao Zheng should go into my whip first to reminisce about the past. After I finish handling the affairs here, I will send you to reincarnation."
When Xu Jinhua nodded, I threw the soul light ball into the air and whipped it with the Qiankun whip. When the light ball shattered, all four souls were sucked into the whip.
Xu Jinhua automatically entered the Qiankun Whip.
At this moment, there are only me, Xing Baole, and... a corpse in the stone chamber.
Although the truth about the death of the villagers and the disappearance of their souls was revealed and solved, we were not happy and still felt heavy.
First, although the problem here has been solved, today's scenes may be playing out in other towns and villages.
The particularity of the demon is difficult for cultivators to detect without special means, and even its breath cannot be detected. Those villages attacked by the demon will be devastated.
What's more, he also discovered the shocking conspiracy of the evil organization to use the devil to absorb the innate energy.
"Xiao An, what was that golden thread just now? The devil seemed to be absorbing the energy in the soul? Do you know what happened? Also, is the devil completely dead?" Xing Baole couldn't help but be curious. Ask several questions.
"Of course the devil is dead!" I looked at the devil's head in my hand and said solemnly: "I don't know the purpose of that evil organization, but I know that the golden thread that the devil absorbed from the soul just now is innate energy! "
"What?" Xing Baole suddenly exclaimed. Regarding this matter, he was also shocked and at the same time couldn't understand the purpose of the Evil God Church.
"Innate Qi, innate Qi!" Xing Baole murmured solemnly, "The devil can actually absorb this kind of innate Qi. How is this possible? What are they going to do?"
Xing Baole muttered to himself in shock for a while, then looked at the skeleton in the sarcophagus and said, "Xiao An, do you think this corpse is from the Church of the Evil God?"
Only then did I look at the corpse, and I was equally curious about his identity.
Zen said before that the coffin had existed for at least a hundred years, which meant that the owner of the corpse was a figure from the Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, Zen also said that the formation in this stone chamber sealed the terrifying existence in the coffin, so the owner of the corpse must be the one who was sealed.
But what kind of terrifying figure is he?
After his death, he was actually sealed in the coffin by the master using a formation.
And why seal him?
Is he a great villain?
There are so many doubts.
