There are no cultivators in the world, and Ye Qin is the only snake who has embarked on the path of cultivation. Faced with this problem, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
There are currently only two answers:
One is that there are indeed no practitioners in the world;
Second, practitioners are too secretive and cannot be understood by ordinary books. Only the country knows?
Ye Qin couldn't tell how to distinguish between these two situations, but no matter what, if he could figure it out, it would be helpful to his current practice.
"The Tao can be Tao, but it is not the eternal Tao. The name can be named, but it is not named. The nameless beginning of heaven and earth; the named mother of all things."
"Therefore, always have no desire in order to observe its wonderfulness; always have desire in order to observe its pleasure."
"These two have the same origin but different names. They are both called xuan. Mystery is mysterious, and it is the door to all mysteries."
Looking at the "Tao Te Ching" in front of him, Ye Qin was immediately attracted to it. This sentence in the Tao Te Ching was actually widely circulated and he had heard it many times in his previous life.
Basically, anyone from Daxia can memorize two sentences.
But in my previous life, I just recited it in jingle, so I couldn't understand the feeling now.
"Is this because of practice?"
The Tao Te Ching was written by Laozi. It can be said that the book has unique insights into the formation of the universe and the laws of nature.
Even the concept of "Tao" was first proposed by Laozi. He believed that heaven is not eternal and not the most fundamental, but the most fundamental thing is "Tao".
The so-called practicing the Tao, cultivating the Tao, and attaining the Tao all take the Tao as the ultimate goal.
Even such a person who believes in "Tao" did not clearly say that he "obtained Tao" in the end.
Because of the limitations of my own conditions and lack of innate spirituality, I can only stop here. Otherwise, what is said in the book will not only be these, but should have specific methods of cultivation.
Through the few words in these ancient books, Ye Qin, as a person who has experienced it, has some speculations.
He guessed from the clues between the lines and suspected that I was very likely to embark on the journey of cultivation, and it was even very possible that I had a moment of trance like myself!
That state was so exciting that Ye Qin still remembers it. Unfortunately, it is not something that can be entered at will. It requires great opportunity.
After entering this state, you will fall into an extraordinary feeling of enlightenment, your mind will run extremely fast, and your understanding of all things will seem to be innate and mysterious.
Ye Qin also started the path of cultivation by chance because he had entered this state of trance.
However, Ye Qin discovered that ancient sages like Laozi were blocked from practicing practice because of their own limitations, and could not go any further throughout their lives.
That's why he summarized what he was thinking and left these words.
Because although the state of trance was fleeting, I still gained a lot of inspiration and created many famous works of thought.
He hopes to inspire future generations, and hopes that there will be people with outstanding talents in the future generations who can fulfill his long-cherished wish that he has not yet fulfilled.
It has been recorded in later generations that Laozi traveled west to return to hermitage and arrived at Hangu Pass. Yin Xi, ordered by Hangu Pass, climbed up to the tower and looked into the distance. When he saw purple air coming from the east, he knew that a saint was coming.
Legend has it that before Lao Tzu passed through Hangu Pass, Yin Xi, the guarding pass commander, saw a cloud of purple air coming from the east. He thought a saint must be coming and hurried to greet him. Sure enough, he saw Lao Tzu coming slowly on a green bull.
Yin Xi entertained Lao Tzu for several days and asked him to write a book. Lao Tzu couldn't refuse, so he left the famous five thousand words, which the world calls "Tao Te Ching".
This is the origin of the Tao Te Ching.
Perhaps this is true, but there are also parts of it that are exaggerated.
"It seems that when I traveled west, maybe it was to be able to break through myself and find a way to practice. Maybe like me, he also discovered that human beings lack spirituality, so he couldn't step into practice. In the end, he only left behind the inheritance of ideas but no practice. The method."
Ye Qin didn't know if I found a solution in the end.
But it is very likely that they have not been found. Otherwise, what will be left at Hangu Pass will be the specific cultivation methods, not the masterpiece of thought "Tao Te Ching".
It is undeniable that I am a man of great talent. To be able to feel this way just from a moment of enlightenment is enough to show his talent and talent.
However, the innate conditions are not enough and restricted by innate shackles. As a human being, after all, there is no spiritual energy. Otherwise, it is impossible to really become the first person in cultivation?
In the five thousand years since ancient times, there may actually be many sages like Lao Tzu. Maybe in ancient times, some people really touched the door of cultivation and saw the dawn, but they were unable to find the method of cultivation because of their own limitations. I can only leave a few words to enlighten future generations.
You can name a few such people casually, such as Lu Dongbin, Zhuangzi, etc.
Ye Qin felt deeply, and it was quite a pity, but even a masterpiece of thought was enough to inspire him a lot.
Before starting to practice, these ideological masterpieces can only enlighten the mind. But after starting to practice, you will find that the thoughts of these sages are really advanced and mysterious, and contain great wisdom!
This is not a spiritual practice, but it is a rare summary of the understanding of heaven, earth and nature.
He continued to look through ancient books, and also read many books related to snakes.
"I am different from these people. They cannot break through the limitations of heaven and earth, but I have a snake body and a human soul, and my spirituality and wisdom coexist. This is my opportunity."
In other words, Ye Qin is now reborn in this little black snake and has wisdom. Looking at the past and present, it is the only exception and variable.
When foreign objects fall from the sky, great changes will occur.
Human wisdom combined with the innate spirituality of animals has evolved into an unparalleled gift of enlightenment, and he himself is a person who has come back from the dead, and from life to death.
With the blessing of various factors, Ye Qin can easily feel all things in nature, so he can feel what these people can't feel.
Their epiphany may only last a moment, but Ye Qin's epiphany can be very long.
After all, since ancient times, snakes have been endowed with divinity and are somewhat mysterious.
The snake totem has a long history. In ancient times, it had a huge popular base. Many ancient tribes and ethnic groups believed in snakes, thinking that they were sacred objects and could bring continuous blessings.
Fuxi, Gonggong, Zhulong and other ancient gods all have human heads and snake bodies.
Needless to say, Nuwa, who is famous for repairing the sky and creating humans, and is known as the mother of the earth, is a typical representative among them.
Of course, his original body was just an ordinary little green snake before, but just at the moment of life and death, he traveled through time again.
The body that was supposed to die came back to life, and combined with the snake body and human soul, a wonderful magnetic field was formed. Together with the animal spirit, the collision produced an unparalleled talent.
With all kinds of blessings, Ye Qin was able to find the secret to getting started so quickly, and was even able to have an unusual epiphany, which can be seen from his practice.
Everything can only be said to be a combination of circumstances. In the final analysis, it is the word "fate".
But the fate is so wonderful that it cannot be expressed in words.
All the cultivation methods were created by Ye Qin single-handedly. They are unique to his cultivation. It can be said that he has opened up a path that is unprecedented and unprecedented.
But this does not mean that there are no traces of the predecessors.
If he hadn't seen the "Huangdi Yinfu Neijing", he wouldn't have thought of using cultivation to resolve the dilemma.
There is a certain destiny somewhere.
Just like he is now looking at ancient books in the library, peering into the past and exploring the present, looking for traces of predecessors, and solving his own doubts.
Before he knew it, the night had passed. When he heard footsteps coming from outside, Ye Qin suddenly woke up and looked at the sky by the window.
"It will be daylight so soon."
To him, it seemed like only ten minutes had passed.
