003 Back to Talking about the Mysteries of the General Theory, in the Bardo of Dreams

(Preface: There is a story. An old god came to a mountain village. The villagers asked the gods for the magic of turning stones into gold. The gods did not refuse and taught the magic of turning stones into gold to the villagers. After teaching the magic, he pointed to the small hillside outside the entrance of the village and said: "When you use the magic of turning stones into gold, you must remember that you must not think of the sheep on the hillside in your heart! Otherwise it will not work." What's the result? I can guess that no villager can do it. The sheep on the hillside is actually a barrier for the cultivation of people's minds and nature in practice.)

There are some things, the more you tell yourself not to think about it, but it desperately penetrates your head. Some people, you tell yourself not to look at her, but she attracts your sight like a magnet. Feng Junzi told me that as long as I turn a blind eye to the girl in the classroom, there will be nothing wrong, but unfortunately I can't do it! The less I want to look at her, the more I can't help looking back at her. Because while I tell myself "don't look at her", I was actually constantly reminding myself that there is such a personal existence. This principle is very simple, but unfortunately I didn't understand at that time, and Feng Junzi didn't tell me. Later, I suspected that he might have done it on purpose.

The mysterious little girl always appears at dusk. Every night during the evening self-study, I always meet her. The existence of this little girl seems to have only had sex with me. I even have an illusion that she exists because of me. Her face is pale, her eyes are blank, she doesn't know what she is thinking, and just sits there. Everything around her seems to have nothing to do with her. Looking at her pitiful appearance, I sometimes think of my sister, my sister is at the same age as her. My sympathy finally couldn't help but flooded, and I was thinking about helping her. I wanted to know where she came from? Why did she come here for? But I don't know how to start.

I came very early for the evening self-study this day, and there was no one in the classroom. Of course, I was not the first one because "she" was already sitting there. Out of an unknown impulse, I forgot Feng Junzi's warning, walked over and said to her: "Little sister, why are you here?...Is there anything you need help?...Can you hear me talking?..."

No matter how I tried to communicate with her, the little girl did not respond. I mustered up the courage to pat her on the shoulder. Before I could reach out, a voice came from behind me: "You are a physical body, she is a bardo body, don't waste any effort, it's useless! Didn't Feng Junzi tell you?" Turning around, Shang Yunfei walked into the classroom at some point. He saw my puzzled expression and continued: "You have innate information, but aren't satisfied? Do you want to learn from those ignorant witches and gods, and still think of ghost power? If you don't understand your mind and nature, it's not a good thing to pursue supernatural powers."

"Yun Fei, what did you say? I can't understand a word?"

"I don't understand? Why didn't Feng Junzi tell you anything? Forget it, don't ask me anymore. Everything has cause and effect and karma. Do whatever you like." I wanted to ask something more, but Yun Fei sat down after he finished speaking. At this time, other students had already walked into the classroom one after another.

...

After self-study, I did not go back to the dormitory directly but chased Feng Junzi outside the west gate and called Feng Junzi home. When Feng Junzi saw me calling him, he turned around and asked, "Shi Ye, why are you looking for me if you don't go back to sleep? Is it because of that ghost? I have told you not to worry about her."

I was a little tired all the way, and I panted and said, "No, no, I want to ask you a few nouns. What does the physical body, bardo body, reporting, and ghost communication mean?"

Feng Junzi's expression changed: "Shang Yunfei told you? Damn! How old is a little kid, you are so confused all day long, what are you showing off!"

Feng Junzi said that Shang Yunfei was a little brat, but forgot that he was one year younger than Yunfei. I thought so in my heart but didn't dare to say that: "It was Yunfei who told me, but he didn't explain it to me. I was curious, can you ask you?"

Feng Junzi: "Then tell me all the original words of Yun Fei. How did he mention these?"

I reposted Yun Fei's words, and Feng Junzi seemed a little unhappy after hearing this: "I thought my own skills could be greatly enlightened and said that they did not seek supernatural powers. In fact, they pay more attention to supernatural powers than anyone else in their bones."

I still didn't understand Feng Junzi's words and asked carefully: "What's going on? What is the magical power?"

Feng Junzi replied: "Buddhists say that they do not promote supernatural powers, but they explain supernatural powers more in the scriptures than anyone else. Have you ever heard of the Five Eyes and Six Powers?"

"I haven't heard of it."

"That is what Buddhism says. The five eyes refer to the naked eye, the heavenly eye, the wisdom eye, the Dharma eye, the Buddha eye, and the six will refer to the eye, the ear, the mind, the life, the divine realm, and the leakage. The naked eye is the eyes of ordinary people, but there are differences. It refers to the clear eyes that can see all the subtleties. The heavenly eye is different from the naked eye. It is three-dimensional. Do you understand the three-dimensionality?..."

I nodded, and at least learned three-dimensional geometry. Feng Junzi continued: "The heavenly eye can not only see the world in front of you, but also see the extreme distance and the nearest. When you practice to the extreme, you can see as long as you exist in the world, no matter where it is. The wisdom eye is different from the heavenly eye. It adds another dimension of time in the three-dimensional space to see the past and the future, but the wisdom eye can see the past and the future but cannot see through cause and effect, so it cannot change anything. The Dharma eye is one step ahead. As the saying goes, the Dharma eye is like a torch, which can illuminate all ignorance and also leads the world to turn the world with the opportunity. These are all eye powers, so you should also understand the ear power among the six powers. The mind power is also called the mind power, which means being able to see the human mind. As for the life power, it is a superstitious statement. Buddhism has the theory of reincarnation and reincarnation. The life power can tell fate, which is similar to the wisdom eye, but there are also differences. The wisdom eye emphasizes the ability to know the past and the future, and the life power emphasizes the cycle of cause and effect..."

"What did you say? What is superstitious?" I couldn't help but interrupt when I heard this. Feng Junzi talked about supernatural powers and actually said that Mingtong is superstitious. What the implied meaning is that other supernatural powers are not superstitious? Why are other supernatural powers not superstitious but Mingtong superstitious? I wonder.

"Don't interrupt, listen to me finish it! There is also the divine realm power among the six masters. This kind of magic power is very wonderful and contains a lot of content. For example, if you disappear here and appear there, this is actually a escaping technique... In short, most of the gods in Chinese myths and legends can do in the divine realm power. Shi Ye, did I miss something?"

I nodded: "Feng Junzi, you didn't talk about the Buddha's eyes and the complete enlightenment of all the leakage."

Feng Junzi also nodded and said, "I really didn't talk about this, because I have always suspected that the Buddha's eyes and the power of complete defilements were simply fabricated! It was made up to belittle Taoism. The Buddha's eyes are above the Dharma eyes, and the impurities are above the divine realm. Gods and immortals will never be as good as the magical powers of Buddha! Damn, when I am happy one day, I will write a scripture to make him have seven eyes and eight abilities, and add a divine eye to the Buddha's eyes and immortal eyes..."

Feng Junzi's words were entangled, so I had to interrupt again: "Feng Junzi, write your scriptures slowly, but you haven't told me what it means to be a physical body, a bardo body, a communication, and a ghost communication."

Feng Junzi: "The physical body refers to the human body. You can know if you pat yourself. Buddhism says this is a stinky skin, so you don't take it seriously, but the human body in the alchemy is an innate furnace and cauldron, which is the root of practice. The bardo body seems to be the Tantric saying, and I don't know much about it. He said that the bardo body, I said that the Yin God, in your opinion, is a ghost! Just think of it as a ghost. I just talked about supernatural powers, which refers to classification, so there is another way of supernatural powers mentioned by Buddhism, which refers to the source, which refers to the five types of prophecy, cultivation, based on communication, demonic power, and ghost power. Progean refers to the natural supernatural powers. For example, in your case, Buddhism

When talking about reincarnation, it is believed that having supernatural powers when born is karma in the previous life, so it is called reward. Cultivation refers to supernatural powers obtained through various magic techniques. Yitong means supernatural powers obtained by relying on various means or props, emphasizing the use of external objects or rituals. This is probably difficult to understand. Think about it, there are many fortune tellers on the west side of Phoenix Bridge. If you don’t calculate accurately, it is a fraud. If you do, it is Yitong. As for the demons and ghosts, it is the magical powers obtained by demons and ghosts. Many people are possessed by monsters or ghosts, or have communicated with them... Shi Ye, do you understand!"

Just as I was fascinated by the fact that Feng Junzi suddenly called me, and I quickly replied, "I understand, but why is Mingtong superstitious?"

Feng Junzi sneered: "Have you heard of the six realms of reincarnation? It is also a Buddhist saying."

"I haven't heard of it."

Feng Junzi: "The six paths refer to the human path, the Asura path, the hungry ghost path, the hell path, the animal path, and the heavenly path. The heavenly path among the six paths actually talks about the gods and immortals in Chinese mythology. However, the Buddha in Buddhism jumped out of the six paths and did not enter the cycle of reincarnation, while the heavenly beings have five declines and will be overwhelmed sooner or later, and it is no different from the animals. Although it is said that sentient beings are equal, they are not animals!"

After hearing this, I finally understood a little. There seemed to be a little bit of a essay or "academic dispute" between Feng Junzi and Shang Yun Fei. I couldn't get into any arguments between them, and I didn't dare to go back to tell Yun Fei about these words. I asked again: "So are the supernatural powers you just said true?"

Feng Junzi smiled: "Those are all the sayings in Buddhism. In fact, they are powerful, so how can they be so dogmatic? As the saying goes, the Tao is boundless, and it is more than just five eyes and six powers. Since you asked today, I will open your eyes. Have you seen that stone?"

Feng Junzi pointed to a blue stone on the side of the road and asked me, and I nodded. He suddenly grabbed my hand and said in a low voice: "Borrow the magical powers and use it." Another sentence! I felt my whole body soft again. The stone suddenly seemed to be alive, jumping on the ground twice, then jumped into the air and flew over. Feng Junzi stretched out his other hand and caught it.

"I don't have a Qingming Mirror, just use this stone as a magic weapon." Feng Junzi murmured to himself and put the blue stone in his pocket, turned around and said to me, "Look clearly, this is the Taoist magic of 'immunity'. What kind of magical power do you think it is?"

"Wow! It's amazing, can you teach me?"

"Actually, you can do it, but you just don't know how to do it. I'm teaching you this now, which is no different from teaching you to chronic suicide. Spells require the consumption of mana or the innate vitality of people like you. In fact, if you think about it carefully, this is not magical at all, or even unnecessary, and it is optional."

"Why?"

Feng Junzi walked to the side of the road again and gently picked up another stone: "I want to pick a stone and just walk over and pick it up. I have to use the magical power of the world, which consumes a thousand times the energy. Do you think it's unnecessary? Besides, there are not many out of 100,000 people who can practice Taoism to this point. Most people will never be able to have this state in their entire lives. Even if someone reaches this state, it may require a hundred years of hard practice. If the stones in the world are picked like this, it would be ridiculous! Buddhism does not promote magical powers, but there are actually their principles. Do you understand?"

...

I didn't understand Shang Yunfei's words. I understood Feng Junzi's words at first, but then I became confused. Picking a stone from the ground requires a hundred years of hard practice, and there is still nothing in a thousand! So how old is Feng Junzi this year? He is only in his teens! Although Feng Junzi said that his magical powers are not magical or even dispensable, I still hope that I can pick a stone like him, but unfortunately he is unwilling to teach me. When I go to bed at night, I keep thinking about it and gradually fall asleep in my random thoughts.

I had a dream. I dreamed that I was standing on a high platform, waving my hands. As my hands waved, colorful stones in front of me flew around. When I looked carefully, it turned out that these stones were not flying around, but were controlled by my hands. I thought everywhere, these colorful stones flew out all kinds of arcs in the air like butterflies passing through flowers. I was happy that these stones suddenly lost control and all the people who were scattering at me. I was shocked and suddenly woke up.

It turned out that this was a dream. I felt that the air in the dormitory was stuffy, so depressing that it made people breathless. Others were asleep deeply, and no one noticed that I woke up from the dream. I put on my clothes and walked out in a daze. It was quiet in the corridor, and the moonlight came in through the window. I looked up and found that it was a full moon night. The full moon was quietly hanging in the sky, as if it was sending a mysterious call to me. I followed the moonlight step by step out of the dormitory building and came to the silent campus.

I walked aimlessly and walked to the front of the teaching building without realizing it. This ancient building, built in 1955, lying there like a silent monster, with windows like black eyes. It was already late at night, was that little girl still there? Will she feel scared alone in this silent night sky building? It's strange that I thought of whether a "ghost" would be scared, but I didn't think that I, a "person", should also be scared?

I walked up the stairs step by step, and the darkness below my feet made an empty echo. The ending of this echo was like a sigh from a distance. I walked to the classroom, pushed open the door, and looked in. The wooden door made a dry and hoarse sound, which was very harsh in the silence. The little girl was still sitting in the classroom, and unexpectedly, the sound of the door opened alarmed her. When I looked into the door, she also raised her dark eyes and looked at me, and asked in a timid voice: "Who are you-?"

This sound woke me up, and I suddenly sat up from the bed, and almost hit the bed on the upper bunk - it turned out that this was still a dream! After waking up, I was still a dream, which was an experience I had never had before. I even suspected that I was still in a dream, and pinched my arms with my hands. The pain told me that I had really woken up this time. In the darkness, I was sweating in cold sweat.

...

This dream is not the end, but another beginning. From this day on, I will have the same dream almost every night, always dreaming that I walk to the empty classroom, push open the door, and then meet the little girl's eyes, and hear her ask, "Who are you?" All dreams end here, without exception, I will wake up at this time, and sweat after waking up.

Strangely, although I have the same dream every day, I don’t realize it is a dream when I am in the dream. It is this dream only when I wake up suddenly, and it is this dream again and again. I repeat this immersive torture over and over again. I have such dreams every day, and I see the silent girl every day during evening self-study. Maybe I can’t feel anything for a day or two, but over time, I gradually feel a little dazed.

I began to feel weak and felt cold. I felt dizzy when I sat there in class and my face became increasingly ugly. The first thing I found out was that Shang Yunfei or Feng Junzi was that I was abnormal. Teacher Liu, our class teacher. One day during self-study class, I supported my temple with my hand and felt drowsy. The words on the book in front of me became swimming tadpoles. At this time, a gentle hand was placed on my forehead, and then I heard Teacher Liu’s voice: "Shiye, what’s wrong with you these days? You’ve been feeling very uncomfortable. Come with me to check with you, okay?" I raised my head, which was Teacher Liu’s concerning eyes.

"No, nothing, I didn't sleep well last night, and I was a little sleepy today." I stuttered. I don't know why, among all the teachers, I was nervous and very nervous when I saw Teacher Liu! It's not because she was strict with students, but on the contrary, she was the gentlest to students, nor because she paid special attention to me. I was just an ordinary student in the class who was not eye-catching in my class. But strangely, when I stood in front of Teacher Liu, I felt nervous, at a loss, and couldn't speak smoothly. Maybe because she was our class teacher, the class teachers I met since childhood were very good.

Teacher Liu is very young, the youngest among all the first-year high school teachers, five years older than me, this year's 23rd year. In summer, I just graduated from the Chinese Department of Wucheng Normal University and taught Chinese in Class 3 and 4 of Grade 1. Normal University can teach at Wucheng Middle School. On the one hand, I must be a very outstanding student in college, and on the other hand, there should be a certain relationship at home. Of course, I don't know these. My first impression of Teacher Liu is that she is extremely beautiful. I grew up in a mountain village and have no impression of the beauty in the city. When I first saw Teacher Liu, I thought that the legendary beauty is like this, right? But I can't tell where she is exactly beautiful. Although I am not young, I still have a poor concept of the opposite sex.

When Teacher Liu heard my words, he insisted: "You have been like this for several days. Can't you sleep well every day? Is there something wrong at home? If anything, tell the teacher."

"No, there's nothing wrong with my family, really, really nothing."

"Then you should go to the infirmary with me. It's not a bad thing to see. Let's go, follow me." Teacher Liu's voice was gentle and pleasant, but there was an indisputable authority in the tone of talking to the students. She pulled my arm, and I couldn't help but stand up and followed Teacher Liu to the school infirmary. The school doctor did not find any problems, but just told me to pay attention to rest and pay attention to nutrition. Teacher Liu was still worried and told me: "If you still feel uncomfortable, go to the city hospital for a look, and... If there are any difficulties at home, don't be embarrassed and tell me."

get out of class was over when I came out of the infirmary. After Teacher Liu left, I wanted to find Feng Junzi and talk to him about the dream, but met Shang Yunfei head-on. In my opinion, these two big turtles were both masters. I quickly met Shang Yunfei, told him about my strange dreams in recent days, and asked him to help explain.

Yun Fei looked as usual after hearing my words, and was not particularly surprised. He thought about it and said to me: "You seem to have entered a evil path, but it doesn't matter. As long as your heart is pure, there will be nothing wrong. Don't think about it, and don't deliberately not think about it. It will be nothing after a while. Since it is a dream, just think it is a dream."

His answer still couldn't reassure me, so I continued to ask: "Is there any way to prevent me from having this dream?"

Yun Fei did not answer but asked back: "You want to do it yourself, what can I do! Tell me the truth, is your real idea not to dream? Or something else?"

"Actually what I want to know most is what the little girl in my dream wants to say to me? Unfortunately, every time I get there, I wake up." I lowered my head and finally told the truth.
Chapter completed!
