The so-called "self that is not me" can actually be said to be "the disguised self".
When you see delicious food, you want to devour it, when you see beauty, you want to possess it, when you see wealth, you want to seize it. This is a common desire that a person has. This is normal. , distracting thoughts will never be eliminated.
In the terms of Freud's psychodynamic theory, this is the "id" - the most primitive human desire to satisfy instinctive impulses that is rooted in genes.
But the reason why people are human is because they know how to use "shackles". After people fall from the tree, they learn to use moral norms to restrain themselves, thus gaining greater "great freedom".
After being bound, what remains is the "self", which is the "I" in the ordinary secular sense.
What the practice in the second realm pursues is the complete mastery of spiritual energy, or in other words, the complete mastery under subjective consciousness, that is, the self - because spiritual energy is an extraordinary power that will never betray, but it is only absolutely loyal. To the objectively independent individual "you".
Is the dirty thought that flashes through your mind "yourself"? Is the subconscious mind that you are not aware of deep down in your heart “yourself”? Most people don't think that is themselves, but psychic energy doesn't think so. It treats everyone equally and treats the "self" that you don't want to admit and are unaware of as "you".
As the times move forward, sociality rises and instinct declines. For ordinary people, the shackles called morality become heavier and heavier from primitive society to agricultural society and then to industrial society, and the self is naturally suppressed more and more. The weaker the person, the stronger the self. This is why the bearded theorist said that "people are the sum of social relations."
Therefore, normally speaking, for normal social people who do not have anti-social attributes living in modern society, the existence of their id has long been disciplined and suppressed by society, and it is difficult to compare with the influence of the self.
Just like a person who is weak and weak, often feels a little unconfident and tends to be introverted in interpersonal communication. However, if he starts exercising and becomes strong and strong, he will naturally become sunny and cheerful. This is that material determines consciousness.
The practice of extraordinary people in the first realm is the process of strengthening the carbon-based body, suppressing the self and releasing the self. In ancient times, the breathing method often imitated the shape of a tiger and leopard for practice. In addition to the roar of the tiger and the leopard, there are many changes to the body. In addition to reinforcing effective speech syllables, using animality to suppress the ego can increase the efficiency of the breathing method, which is also an important factor.
The breathing method is developed with reference to the phenomenon that people in primitive society can transmit information and command others through just one or two short syllables. The purpose is to use the most effective way to command the body to make it stronger. The whole process requires almost no self. Just leave everything to the body, and even eliminate the interference of the self. Don't think wildly, which will reduce the effect of the breathing method.
The stupid martial arts idiots in this world are often able to practice to a higher realm. This is a reflection of this phenomenon. Before the road after the second realm was developed, the "pure" people practiced their breathing methods to On the contrary, it is faster.
After reaching the carbon-based limit, the id is further released with the influx of spiritual energy. The id increases and the self weakens. The self is subject to moral discipline and naturally does not want to be a beast with only instinct. The two confront each other and finally reach a balance. , this is the [natural end point] of a person’s psychic capacity.
The natural end point is the limit of the spiritual energy capacity that a person's main consciousness can naturally control. It does not mean that the ego cannot control spiritual energy. In fact, when the "weight" of the two parts of the ego and the self is equal, the amount of spiritual energy that can be controlled The number is the same, but the part of the self that is instinctive and disordered, difficult to be commanded by "I", and cannot be commanded, is equivalent to non-existence.
If you want to fully control your own spiritual energy, you must suppress or eliminate the self. However, the Buddha's state of mind in Gujing Muba only exists in people's imagination. The source of the self, the carbon-based body, cannot be eliminated.
People cannot separate from the body, so it is impossible to completely eliminate the self-again, people cannot become machines.
But if you cannot fully control your own spiritual energy, you will not be able to obtain the ability to transform the main thinking body. After all, if your self fluctuates during the transformation and causes damage to the main thinking body, you will definitely die.
However, although humans cannot become machines, humans can use machines.
So the [Second Brain] was born. The Second Brain is not another carbon-based brain, but an artificial, perfect main thinking body without consciousness.
The main thinking body space of the second brain is completely filled with [artificial consciousness]. This kind of consciousness has mechanical thinking and can perfectly control spiritual energy. This filled in artificial consciousness is [superego] - moralization The self, the regularized self, is also the self in the eyes of "others".
The practice of the second realm is divided into three stages. The first stage is to use visualization diagrams to build the second brain, which is called the construction stage; the second stage is to let the second brain resonate with the spiritual energy, so that the spiritual energy can recognize the second brain. The brain is also "I", this is the resonance stage; the last stage is to use the second brain as a blueprint and tool to cut off the redundant "growths" on the main thinking body, so that the main thinking body returns to the form of the perfect main thinking body, and regains its original shape. To be reborn is the stage of rebirth.
Only after completing the training in the second realm and returning to the perfect main consciousness can you gain molecular-level psychic control accuracy.
In the original main thinking body of a person, the id and the self are mixed together and are not separated from each other. However, through the method of visualization, the position can be adjusted so that the id can be transferred to those "growths" that will be removed, and in the new life In the first stage, it is discarded by excision, so that although the body is functioning normally, there is almost no psychological reaction. Naturally, there will be no distracting thoughts, and the extraordinary person can fully control his own spiritual energy.
Only by fully controlling one's own spiritual energy and possessing molecular-level precision in controlling spiritual energy can one continue to move forward in the extraordinary realm.
Although the ego is just a reflection of biological instinct on consciousness, its elimination will not affect the logic of thinking, that is, the operation of the self. You are still yourself, and your thinking will indeed change, but it is just like changing from a child who only recognizes likes and dislikes. For adults who talk about the pros and cons.
Do you think you will no longer be yourself as an adult?
Most people will think that this is who they are. It is normal for their thoughts to change as they grow up. It is even abnormal to say that they have not. I was who I was in the past, and I am who I am now.
But Yuanye didn't think so.
