Chapter 584: The Dharma is not taught to the six ears

Views:

There is a saying that "the law does not spread to the six ears."

The serious explanation of this is that it is a very important secret that cannot be known to a third person except you and me.

When people need to keep a secret, they often say "God knows and the earth knows, you know and I know", which also means that no third person can know.

So what about the less serious explanation

In folklore, the sentence "The Dharma cannot be passed down to the six ears" is also interpreted as: The Dharma cannot be passed down to the six-eared macaque.

This can probably be said to be meaningless.

Among ascetics, there is another interpretation of "the Dharma is not transmitted to the six ears", which is completely different from the orthodox and unorthodox interpretations.

There is a game called Megaphone.

It means passing a sentence one-on-one one by one, and finally letting the person at the end repeat the sentence.

There will of course be various changes in the way the game is played, but in the final analysis it is a process of transmitting information.

What this game represents is the change in the process of information transmission.

Generally speaking, the more people involved and the stricter the rules passed, the greater the change in the final message.

Therefore, for Taoists, "the Dharma is not transmitted to the six ears" can also be interpreted as meaning that it is difficult to accurately pass on the Taoism to multiple generations.

This is also true.

Just like the Taoism created by those powerful people who established sects, if the inheritors of later generations have no other opportunities, most of the results will be difficult to reach the height of their predecessors.

They think that if they practice according to the rules, they can learn the Taoism of their predecessors in its original form.

But in fact, as they passed it down from generation to generation, Taoism had already changed unconsciously.

After all, Taoism is not the scientific theorems and laws of the technological world, nor the various formulas summarized by scientists.

The inheritance of Taoism, in addition to the "gong methods" similar to formulas, also relies more on the comprehension of the practitioners.

For the same thing, his understanding is like this, and my understanding may be like this, but when I pass it on to others, they may have different understandings.

It is no exaggeration to say that even the sage's great path spoken from the sage's mouth has deviated from the sage's own understanding.

After listening to the great truth taught by the saints, can we become the same saints

It's obviously impossible.

Whether you choose to sit on an empty futon and listen to the lecture, or choose to merge with those phantoms to gain experience, you will only get something that deviates from the source.

And the real root lies only in the figure of the saint.

That’s right!

After weighing the pros and cons, Ye Zan came up with the idea of "merging" with the figure of the saint who was preaching on the high platform, which may seem offensive to others.

Besides Ye Zan, has anyone else had such an idea throughout the ages

I think there should be some.

After all, those who have come to this point and have the opportunity to enter the Holy Ruins must be some amazingly talented people, and there may not necessarily be some "whimsical" people among them.

So, what did they gain

If someone really does this and gets a "huge" opportunity from it, I'm afraid the Immortal Court that controls the Holy Ruins will know about it.

This opportunity does not mean that if someone takes it, others will not be able to get it.

Fundamentally speaking, this so-called opportunity is not a thing or a force, it is simply a piece of memory information stored in the figure.

It's like a DVD. As long as the DVD is not damaged, it can be watched by as many people as many times.

In fact, not only the figure of the saint, but also the "opportunities" that can be obtained in the entire holy ruins are essentially the existence of similar information.

Including that "purple energy".

"Purple gas" can be said to be a kind of energy, but essentially it is a kind of information that can stimulate changes in matter.

It does not mean that only words, pictures, videos and the like can be called information.

If, "purple energy" or other "opportunities" are just energy or matter.

So according to the law of conservation of energy, if people continue to take away these "opportunities", wouldn't the holy ruins have been hollowed out long ago

Although saints are infinitely powerful, the holy ruins are not saints, but are formed by the escape of power when saints become saints.

It can't even be said to be the dissipation of power, it should be regarded as the impact of power fluctuations.

Of course, in a strict sense, fluctuations are also energy, but that energy is even smaller than the power of the saint.

However, it is different from the information in the figure of the saint.

"Purple Qi" as a kind of information is more like a kind of random information generated randomly. It cannot be said that it will be gone once it is collected, but it is not certain when it will be there.

This is also the reason why, after Ye Zan and the evil demons from outside the world searched for it, the subsequent cultivators had limited harvest.

Therefore, if someone in the past really gained a huge opportunity from the saint's figure, Xianting will definitely not be stingy about telling other people who come to the holy ruins.

After all, under the premise of fighting against the evil spirits outside the world, Xianting hopes that its side can have a little more strength.

And since Xianting did not tell everyone this, it means that there is not much "opportunity" to be gained from the saint's figure.

Maybe even nothing.

So, should Ye Zan still try

certainly!

Different from others, it's not about how talented he is, but that Ye Zan has the capital to try and make mistakes.

For others, this may be the only time in their lives. It’s hard to say whether they will have the opportunity in the future.

As for Ye Zan, as long as he ensures that there is a quantum base station here, he can come whenever he wants and as many times as he wants.

Even Ye Zan can not only come by himself, but also bring his relatives and friends with him.

It is precisely because of this that Ye Zan is not in a hurry to bring his relatives and friends now, as things will naturally pass in time.

Having made up his mind, Ye Zan went straight to the saint's figure without any further delay.

No matter whether those who had "fused" could see it or not, after throwing a quantum communication base station to the side, he sat into the saint's figure without hesitation.

As the figures overlapped, Ye Zan's eyes suddenly went dark. As expected, the scene of preaching from the perspective of a saint did not appear.

Of course, I did not experience the life of a saint.

Perhaps, if ordinary people think about it, the opportunity Ye Zan can get, or the way to get the opportunity, is either to preach from the perspective of a saint, or to experience the life of a saint from the perspective of a saint.

If you just preach from the perspective of a saint, you are just listening from a different perspective.

If you just experience the life of a saint, it is just like reading an inspirational biography of a famous person.

Besides, as we all know, memories are stored in the brain.

After all, this figure of the saint is not the physical body of the saint, and the information recorded and retained in it cannot be a simple "memory".

To be honest, if the Saint's figure contained the memories of the Saint's life, I'm afraid the Saint would not allow the existence of this holy ruins.

Even a saint cannot live his life with a clear conscience, nor can he be willing to show his true life to others.

In fact, the information retained in the saint's figure is actually just the saint's thoughts during his sermons.

There are some things that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words, or that cannot be accurately expressed in words.

For example, what is zooming in while zooming in, what is colorful black, etc.

I know in my heart what is going on, but can't find the right words to describe it. This kind of thing is not unique to Party A.

What's more, when it comes to matters like preaching, saints must also consider the receptive ability of the listeners.

In other words, what is said in the mouth may not necessarily be what is in the heart.

When a person thinks, countless thoughts arise and die. After all, only a few of them are expressed.

Ye Zan, who "integrated" with the saint's figure, had the opportunity to come into contact with those unspoken thoughts and find something beneficial to himself from those thoughts.

This process of searching, the form of contact with the thoughts of the saint, has no words and no pictures.

It's a kind of induction. It's natural to understand. If you don't understand, you won't understand.

Maybe it's like enlightenment.

A problem that had been bothering me for a long time suddenly came to me out of nowhere, and everything was solved in an instant.

Of course, this means that there is really something useful for Ye Zan in the saint's thoughts.

If so, it would be like an epiphany.

If not, then there’s nothing to say.

The other people are actually similar. They all overlap with those figures and gain experience through ideological contact.

However, for those figures, the most important thought at that moment was to listen to the saint's sermon.

Does anyone get distracted when a saint is preaching

If you are distracted by such an opportunity, then you really deserve to be struck with thunder and lightning.

If your mind is not distracted, there won’t be too many distracting thoughts, and it will be difficult for others to get something else from it.

Of course, having said that, these figures are not saints, so even if they have distracting thoughts, they may not be of much value.

Ye Zan and others began to accept the "inheritance".

The group of people who stayed outside Yushan did not stick to the gate of Yushan at this time, but chose to face the evil spirits outside the sky.

On the one hand, the direction in which the evil spirits from outside the world came was not in the direction of the Yushan Mountain Gate.

Yushan is not surrounded by an insurmountable wall, nor is it shrouded in any restrictive formation.

If everyone really chooses to stay at the gate of Yushan Mountain, the evil spirits from outside the world can enter Yushan Mountain from other directions.

Therefore, if the mountain does not come to me, I will go to the mountain.

After all, the movements of evil spirits outside the world have always been monitored by the ascetics.

On the other hand, the monks have a worry.

They were worried that after the demons from outside the world entered the range of Yushan, the natives who were chasing and intercepting them would give up.

For outsiders like them, there are no walls or restrictions in Yushan, and entry and exit are very casual.

However, who knows if there are any taboos in Yushan for those indigenous people

For example, is it their holy land

With nearly half of the manpower missing, the help of the natives of the Holy Ruins is very important, and the monks do not dare to gamble here.

After Ye Zan and others entered Yushan, the monks who stayed outside also set off, following the guidance of Qianli Divine Monitoring and heading straight for the evil spirits outside the world.

It's probably less than a thousand miles away, and you can already see with your naked eyes the war fortress of the evil demon outside the sky.

If you look at it with your naked eyes, you can still see black spots, just like swarms of mosquitoes and flies flying around the war fortress.

At the same time, the war fortress counterattacked, and crisscrossing rays of light flickered like the net on an electric mosquito swatter.

The strength of the natives of the Holy Ruins is still more than a little behind, and their ability to block the evil spirits from outside is quite limited.

If it weren't for the fact that the natives could be constantly resurrected (refreshed), they would have been completely wiped out by the evil spirits from outside the world.

"Fellow Taoists, I will show my shame first!"

Gouchen Zhizun said a polite word to the people around him, then pointed his sword in a circle across the void, and slashed in the direction of the evil demon in the distance.

A ray of sword light shot out from his finger. It didn't look very dazzling, but it seemed to split the world in front of him into two.

For just a moment, layers of translucent light masks lit up outside the demon's war fortress.

Perhaps, at this moment inside the war fortress, a flashing red light is lighting up and a sharp and ear-piercing alarm is sounding.

The sword light struck the light shield of the war fortress.

The layers of photomasks exploded, like glass, like eggs, like bubbles in the sun.

But at the same time, the sword light outside the war fortress also dimmed as layers of light masks exploded.

Until it dissipates.

The war fortress was not breached, and the broken light shields lit up again layer by layer.

Looking at the cultivators, after Gouchen Zhizun took action, the others were not idle watching the show.

To deal with the evil spirits outside the world, there is no need to talk about the moral principles of the world. Of course, if you want to fight, you still have to fight together.

What's more, in addition to war fortresses and mobile fortresses, there are also a lot of strong men at the level of Heaven-reaching Demons.

So, after the sword light was slashed, Madam White Bone first sacrificed the White Bone Sect's mountain-controlling magic weapon.

A palace made of bones appeared in the sky, and endless bones spewed out of the palace gate like a flood from a broken embankment.

The white bones were divided into two parts, and expanded in all directions, until the entire space became a sea of bones.

The demons outside the world had no intention of passively being beaten. First, several mobile fortresses flew out of the war fortress.

Several mobile fortresses did not fly very far, but surrounded the war fortress like satellites.

The mobile fortresses are connected to each other by light beams, forming an energy field that envelopes the war fortress.

Then, several figures flew out from the war fortress, but they did not come towards the monks, but hung in the energy field.

Mrs. Bones pointed forward, and huge Bone Demon Gods jumped out of the sea of bones. Their size alone was not inferior to that of the Mobile Fortress.

Several bone demon gods walked on the "waves" and rushed straight to the war fortress.

The demons outside the world did not want to fight one on one, and several demons outside the world immediately revealed their true forms.

One of them has eight eyes on his head that look like the Huawei logo. Below the eyes is a huge beak, and his arms are made up of thousands of tentacles.

It raised its arms, and the thousands of tentacles grew longer and larger and spread out, revealing an energy field to face the Bone Demon God.
