The first page is the title page. It is as blank as snow, and there are only eight thick and large characters, which are extremely clear. No matter who opens the book, it is impossible to miss it.
When ordinary people see this scene, they will definitely think carefully about the true meaning hidden in it, and then continue reading with the understanding of these eight characters. Chen Changsheng was different. Instead of continuing to open the next page, he got up and walked to the bookshelf, found several books related to marrow washing, flipped through them quickly, and found that the title pages of these books all had the same eight characters, and then sat back on the floor Continue to read on the Internet, the mind falls on the book paper, and there is nothing else.
The text of "On Marrow Washing" is very concise, he read it carefully, and finished the first chapter in a short time. This article talks about how to cultivate spiritual consciousness. He didn't stop here to think or try, but continued to read backwards, and the content of the next few articles was gradually remembered in his mind-mainly about cultivating divine consciousness, finding life stars, and guiding These three aspects of astral light entering the body.
It only took him half an hour to finish reading, then he closed the pages and began to close his eyes and meditate.
After more than ten breaths, he opened his eyes and turned the pages of the book again to read again.
This time he took a shorter time than the first time, and he finished reading again in only a few sticks of incense.
Then he closed his eyes again and began to meditate on the contents of the book.
After counting breaths, he opened his eyes and began to read again.
After repeating this several times, the sunlight shining from the window is still so blazing.
He closed the pages of "On Marrow Washing" for the last time, and never opened it again.
He took out his pen and ink, without turning the pages of the book, and began to record some of his thoughts while reading with the memory in his mind.
After a while, many words appeared densely on the paper.
At the moment when he finally put the pen on the inkstone, the contents of the entire "On Marrow Washing" were engraved in his mind like a carved stone.
The most important thing is that this is not a mechanical memory, but a real understanding.
This is how Chen Changsheng reads.
This method is very special, and it is a precious treasure that he and his senior brothers have acquired through more than ten years of hard study. Although the old temple in Xining Town is inconspicuous, the collection of books inside is as vast as the sea. Memorizing so many books naturally requires some very special abilities.
Before this method of reading, a book did not need to be read thick, then thin, and finally thick again—in fact, most of the books in the old temple in Xining Town are still as new as before. The content has been completely memorized by the two brothers and sisters.
The most important part of this method is the note taking at the last step. Whether it is using notes on paper or remembering them in your mind, it is a reorganization and confirmation of the entire reading process. Only after completing this step can it be said that the reader has completely transformed the content of the book into his own knowledge.
After reading "On Marrow Washing" and closing the pages, it is not the end. Learning and learning can be done in the mind and notebook, but what is the purpose of reading and learning? It is practice. His purpose of reading "On Marrow Washing" is to be able to successfully wash the marrow and start practicing.
The first step in washing the marrow is to condense the spiritual consciousness—spiritual consciousness is the spiritual power of human beings, explained in more popular language, it is: "thinking". As long as the thought is strong enough and focused enough, it will become a certain kind of power.
It sounds not difficult, as if as long as you squeeze your brows into mountains and rivers desperately, you can imagine yourself moving freely in the magnificent mountains and rivers, but this is not the case. Because whether the consciousness can be produced depends entirely on the strength of the soul. The strength of the soul is pure talent and has nothing to do with hard work. Even if an ordinary person works hard, can his soul strength be stronger than Tianfeng's reincarnated blood
Chen Changsheng has been preparing for practice for many years. To be more precise, he has been silently waiting for this day since his body changed when he was ten years old. He knows that there is something wrong with his meridians, which is what Master said I have a disease—nine segments of meridian can’t connect, his soul can’t continue to circulate in the body, and can only be forced to sweat out—although after ten years old, he was suppressed by the master’s medicine, and the essence of soul didn’t continue to be lost, but this Still a problem. Otherwise, during the assessment at the Heavenly Dao Academy, the black induction stone would not be able to perceive any spiritual consciousness in his body.
If the soul is not strong enough, how to condense the consciousness
Without divine consciousness, how can it diverge
How to take the first step of this marrow cleansing
Chen Changsheng was not as lost as those people who just found out that they had no hope of cultivation, let alone despair.
He firmly believes that countless people with great wisdom must have solved this problem in advance countless years ago, because there are many people like himself. In the Taoist books he has read, there are often records similar to a frustrated person who found a genius method and became a peerless powerhouse, such as Wang Zhice. But he is not going to do that, because his meridian problem has not seen the same case in the books—the master said that there is no way to cure it, that is fate—he doesn’t have extra time to fight with fate, and he doesn’t think he has Ways to think of new geniuses in a short time. He likes to walk along the water. He believes that he can condense his spiritual consciousness and start to practice according to the existing methods in the world. He believes in the wisdom of the predecessors more than anyone else.
"If you read the book a hundred times, you will see its meaning."
All the books related to marrow washing have such eye-catching eight characters. Obviously, these eight characters are the most critical part of marrow washing, and they are also the parts that the predecessors want to tell future generations, but they must be read. Which book is it
Chen Changsheng looked at the densely packed catalog on the back cover of "The Essence of Essence", looked at the titles of the books that were either Zhongzhengpingpingping, or Jianshenjian, and shook his head. He did not expect that after coming to the capital, he would still continue to live in Xining Town .
In places like Tiandaoyuan or Zhaixing Academy, if students need to break through the level of marrow washing, teachers will naturally tell them that the most important thing for marrow washing is to read a lot of related books to strengthen the soul and condense it in one fell swoop. The purpose of consciousness.
"Marrow Cleansing Theory" is just the general outline, and what really needs to be studied are the forty-nine books on the back cover.
Of course, this does not mean that all students have to read these forty-nine books a hundred times in order to cultivate their souls to the point of condensing their spiritual consciousness. It has been condensed like the end, and the process has been completed.
This process is not the sooner the better. If you succeed in condensing your spiritual consciousness after reading only one book ten times, that person must be the practitioner with the weakest spiritual consciousness in history. Getting stronger and stronger, but still not breaking through the thin layer of paper, until finally condensing the spiritual consciousness successfully, this kind of spiritual consciousness is truly powerful.
If someone can read all the forty-nine books in the catalog of "On Marrow Washing" a hundred times before finally condensing his spiritual consciousness, then he will be able to reach the most perfect state in the future by guiding starlight to wash his marrow. It's just that this kind of situation is very rare, except for those lucky ones with talented blood, basically no one can do it.
This is a very exciting process. As time goes by, as the number of books and times you read increases, you can expect yourself to become a genius with a strong spiritual sense, but it is also very possible that in the end you will not be able to condense your spiritual sense at all, and you can only be an ordinary person.
Hope and disappointment will be magnified as the reading process continues, and eventually this will become a huge gamble. No one knows the result of the game, but when you finish reading these books, after reading them a hundred times, the result will appear automatically.
Read the book a hundred times, its meaning will be self-evident.
That's what it means.
…
…
After reading "On Marrow Cleansing", Chen Changsheng didn't feel any changes in his body, he didn't feel the soul, and naturally he couldn't feel the consciousness. He didn't read the books transcribed on the back cover immediately, but started to do it. calculate.
He believes that his reading efficiency is higher than that of ordinary people, so it may not be necessary to read it a hundred times, twenty or thirty times may be enough. There are a total of forty-nine books in the commentary. Based on his average reading efficiency, in the first round, he could only finish reading seven books a day at most. After reading the first time in seven days, even if the speed gradually increases as time goes by, Speed up, it will take at least half a year to finish reading all these books. Does he have half a year? No. So what to do? After arriving in Kyoto, he felt a little distressed for the first time.
If he let others know his distress at this time, he will definitely feel differently, because in his calculation, it is obvious that he has to read all these forty-nine books before he can start to condense his spiritual consciousness. If he can condense his spiritual consciousness Consciously, in other words—from beginning to end, even subconsciously, he actually thought that he was at the same level as those geniuses, or even higher.
No wonder Tang Sanshiliu thought he was very arrogant when he met him for the first time—he seemed taciturn and cautious, but in fact, his unreasonable and absolute self-confidence in many aspects caused him to be very arrogant to others. An extremely arrogant feeling.
…
…
While thinking about it, suddenly there was a breeze and a shadow fell, covering the words on the back cover.
Chen Changsheng looked up, only to see a pretty little girl looking at him with a sneer.
He was sitting on the floor at this time, and the little girl was naturally condescending.
The little girl is Shuang'er from the East Royal God General's Mansion. She looked at the words about marrow washing on the page next to Chen Changsheng, and understood what he wanted to do. Late?"
Chen Changsheng said seriously: "I heard that there is a sequence, the first to come and then to come, and the last to come and come first."
Shuang'er didn't expect to hear such an answer, she was startled, and then said contemptuously: "Forty-nine volumes of books, one hundred times, ten days, this is the number left by my lady when she was four years old when she was concentrating on her spiritual consciousness. Come first? Where can you go first?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a while, but he didn't know how to answer.
