Chapter 286 Anyang Beyond the Avenue
This old man is really capable.
Look at this, it shouldn't be a mystery.
All three thousand Taoist Dharmas have similarities. After listening to the other classes for half a month, Anyang also had some understanding of this illusory numerology of the law of heaven and earth. He barely knew a little about the calculation method, and he couldn't help but feel upset. He thought to himself, because he did not belong to this world, so this old man couldn't calculate that he would come here today?
Or is it that there were only these six people in the first half of the month, and I only came today, so the old Taoist said casually?
Well, that would be embarrassing.
Without saying much about the old Taoist and God, he bowed to him seriously, and then began to speak slowly. His tone was like an old man in a private school. You can imagine that if he sat down below, he would probably fall asleep in a large area without a short time.
But everyone here is a practitioner of Taoism, and he is interested and comes here. Time is precious and he listens very seriously.
Also, this lecture was chosen by myself. Even if it sounds boring, it would be a bit of a matter of what I had made my appointment... The class I chose was still a bit like listening to was still on my knees.
"The way many practitioners practice Taoism is called Taoism. The so-called Tao and contemplation. Needless to say, Taoism means to practice Taoism and seek Taoism. The word "contemplation" means that those who practice Taoism believe that understanding the celestial phenomena helps seek Taoism and attaining Taoism, becoming immortals, and also helping astrology and fortune-telling. Knowing the development of the world, the "contemplation" of Taoism is taken from the meaning of observing stars and moons, so it is often built on the top of a mountain."
"And I, Kunlun Mountain, stands above the sea of clouds, without the hustle and bustle of mortal dust, and there is no dusty sand covering my eyes. **** can observe the celestial phenomena, and you can see the galaxy every night. When the full moon is full, the moon is like a carriage. Even if the heavens are not beautiful, you can see the zimuth shining with the Taoist layer by pushing the clouds away. It is an excellent place to watch the moon. This is also one of the reasons why our ancestors left Taoism here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the old man wearing Kunlun Taoist robe below saying, "Uncle Master, you have already said this half a month ago."
The old Taoist who preached the Dharma shook his head: "You don't understand this. You have heard it several times, but this fellow Taoist hasn't heard it yet. Most of the people who come to listen to me preach are Taoists of your age. Today, I finally came to a young face that the old Taoist could not see through. I have to give them some preferential treatment. In this way, the fellow Taoist will continue to listen to it in the next class. Otherwise, the old Taoist will live for more than two hundred years and finally teach a lecture. The people who come to listen to it are so fewer than those who listen to those disciples preaching, and their faces are also dull."
The old man wearing Kunlun Taoist robe turned his head and looked at Anyang. He seemed extremely surprised, but he still stopped talking.
Anyang nodded to the people above and smiled slightly at the people who turned their heads.
This old man seems to have a high status in Kunlun Mountain, and he is very old even if he is not qualified. There are many advanced practitioners in other Dharma lecturers, but he is called his disciples by him. The old man sitting below looks very old and even calls him uncle.
Thinking about it, he has lived for at least two hundred years.
"The Great Dao runs for thousands of years. Some people say that fate is from heaven, and some people say that everything follows nature. But for those of us who try to break the numerology, we believe that everything is controlled by the Great Dao, and the development of everything is prescribed by the Great Dao in advance. These prescribed things are called fate and we call them numerology."
"Since we want to break the numerology, we must believe that the great way has traces to follow, and break away from it, have the willpower to see through cause and effect, and be uncontrollable, and be able to control what we do, or even be ruthless. Otherwise, breaking the numerology will be meaningless. I dare say that no more than three people can do this in the entire Kunlun Mountains. Looking at Shenzhou, except for Piaomiao Peak who is keen on breaking the numerology, there is no holy place for practicing Taoism that can be compared with my Kunlun."
"The process of breaking numerology depends on reading seven points and three points. Don't underestimate these three points. This is the word "calculating" that only accounts for three points, which will keep countless talented and outstanding people out of the door. There is nothing else, but there are too many things that need to be calculated, and few people can calculate it clearly. Even if the old Taoist has lived for so many years, sometimes it needs to be done with tools."
Anyang listened calmly and said nothing.
If you have bioassisted chips, you will not be worthy of assisted chips to carry shoes if you live for another two thousand years.
Let’s calculate, what are the one hundred digits after the decimal point of Pi?
It has to be admitted that the computing power of the human brain is much stronger than that of computers, especially complex logical reasoning, emotional prediction and other abilities. However, when it comes to computing, the human brain is not as good as a computer. Perhaps the calculation that can break numerology is not as simple as mathematical calculations. There are also various parameters, many times more complex than pure numbers. However, bioassisted chips are always stronger than human brains, and at most they are slightly worse in inference. The human brain can judge right and wrong through association and experience, and can even rely on intuition, while bioassisted chips can only perform complex simulation operations, which is a disadvantage.
In general, bioassisted chips should have the advantage, especially the combination of bioassisted chips and the human brain.
Otherwise, Anyang would not have been here today.
The old Taoist above continued to speak.
"It is a very vague thing to be able to break numerology and a very substantial thing. No one can say that what he calculated is 100% correct. This is a matter of chance. If you calculate nine of the complex things accurately, you can even be able to deceive simple things. The old Taoist said so much, but it is just to unveil the veil of breaking numerology for all fellow Taoists, so that it will no longer seem so mysterious and obscure."
"For example, if there is a narrow path in front of you, only one person can pass through, and there is a stone on it. A blind man who is familiar with the Taoist comes over, the Taoist can infer whether the blind man will trip over the stone based on whether he is holding a crutch and his usual walking habits. This is very simple, but if the road is a little wider, the Taoist's calculation process will be much more complicated, and the chance of the blind man falling will be much lower. However, if the Taoist knows more information, the result of the Taoist inference will be closer to the facts."
"If fellow Taoists know that this blind man likes to go to the right, and the fellow Taoists happen to see the stone on the right, the extra conditions just now will be offset. So what if the road is wider? This is called calculation, and it is also called seeing. If this is not a blind man, then the calculation process of the Taoists will be tens of millions of times in an instant. If there is a fork on this road, the calculation will be much more complicated. If this is not a road, but a vast grassland, the calculation process and result will take a long time for the old Taoist to come up with. If he doesn't know this person and doesn't know where he wants to go, even the gods can do nothing."
"This is speculation, also called calculation."
Anyang frowned instantly, as if he had caught something.
But such a process is simply calculating, and hard practice is enough. What is the meaning of pure practice?
The old Taoist's next words solved his doubts.
"I guess this fellow Taoist later also understood, that is, the more you understand, the more information you know, the simpler it will be to calculate. But if this person really doesn't know us, we have never seen the path he took, and we don't even know the size of the stone, how should we calculate it?"
"This is a seven-point view."
"How to look at it, it is impossible to go to the person to see it, it is impossible to carefully measure the road and stone, and it is even more impossible to stay by the person for many years just to understand his character. It is too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is too unpaid. What's the point of practicing?"
"What the old Taoist said is not to look with his eyes, but to look with his heart."
Anyang suddenly woke up.
This is the role of practicing in breaking numerology!
The old Taoist looked at his expression and showed a relieved smile, but the words on his mouth did not stop.
"Look at it with your heart, and look at it with cultivation, and look at it with Taoism. If you don't look at it in the world, look at the great way. As long as the great way has traces to follow, everything is in the numerology, we can see everything we want to know through the great way. Even if the great way covers the future, we can calculate this future by ourselves. Everything is in place, and only one result is missing. Wouldn't you be able to pick it up easily?"
"Just like the blind man passing by, all the fellow Taoists know that he is walking recklessly. When he sees him not taking a crutch, he knows that the road is narrow and only one person is passing through. Knowing that the stone is one foot high, isn't his fall a theorem? Even if the road is wide and the stone is half a foot high, as long as you know everything, and with the ability to calculate it, can he fall or not?"
"No matter how complicated things are, you can see that."
"When you reach the highest level of cultivation of the horoscope of heaven, you will know your past and present life, and you will know your character and habits, and you will be able to calculate your future misfortune. Seven points depend on viewing, three points depend on calculation, and the power of calculation is the threshold, but if you can find what you want from the vast road, you will be considered entering!"
Anyang felt a thrill in his heart. There was no doubt that auxiliary chips could not be used for this aspect.
Moreover, he belongs to people outside the heavenly way in this world, and he still doesn't know if he can see through the trajectory of the heavenly way and get the information he wants from it.
...
After listening to it for a day, he felt helpless.
It can be seen that the old Taoist has taken great care of him, and many of the knowledge he had repeated before mentioned again. He heard that the other people were speechless and wasted precious time. Fortunately, their personalities were very peaceful and they did not glar at him. But after all, they were half a month late, and a lot of knowledge could not be supplemented in just a few words. He still sounded very difficult to preach.
It seems that even in half a month, he will know at most about it.
The numerology of heaven is worthy of being the most difficult preaching. Not to mention half a month, I am afraid that half a year of continuous understanding will not be able to learn anything. Practicing the zodiac law is not a matter of one day or one night. What makes him most desperate is the old man’s age, who is over two hundred years old, and even other practitioners who practice Taoism are over fifty years old.
But it is still very interesting to hear it overall. The other knowledge involved is very extensive. Even if he cannot make any achievements in numerology, he can enrich his common sense in practicing Taoism.
So the next day, Anyang came again.
In this lecture hall, the old Taoist accidentally mentioned a sentence to him, which surprised the Taoist who was listening to the lecture.
"My fellow Taoist is young and can transcend the way of heaven. Last night, the old Taoist went back and calculated with the two brothers for a long time. He only knew that his friend had appeared in Bingzhou, Yue Kingdom, and didn't know anything else. He didn't seem to have a much higher cultivation than the three of us. He was really free and unrestrained. Even the trajectory of this great way could not limit the fellow Taoist. If he had such qualifications, if he focused on comprehending the way of heaven, he would probably be able to take care of everything."
Anyang smiled and responded, but his expression was unmoved.
The reason is that you cannot see yourself in the great way.
