Chapter 91: True Man Speaks the Truth
There is a gentle breeze by the river.
The Taoists were filled with mixed feelings.
Although they almost got lost in the vast and boundless avenue of the real person just now, their understanding was very profound.
The evolution from nothing to one, from one to two, from two to three, and from three to the universe and all things took hundreds of millions or even billions of years.
Such teaching will bring endless benefits to anyone who practices Taoism.
How did Gu Zhen comprehend the Tao?
Or from the visual.
Or it may be initiated through hearing.
That is, enlightenment comes from seeing and hearing.
Lao Tzu said: "If you look at it and cannot see it, it is called Xi. If you listen to it and cannot hear it, it is called Yi. If you touch it and cannot reach it, it is called Wei."
From this we can see that the Tao cannot be seen, cannot be heard, and cannot be understood.
Even Zhuangzi said, "The Tao is in shit and piss."
Ancient sages also said, "Carrying water and chopping wood are nothing but the manifestation of the Tao."
All enlightenment is related to the experience of the enlightened person.
In addition to a person's own understanding, what he sees and hears determines the depth of his understanding.
Today, Master Fang uses his great Dharma to let everyone witness the "creation of the heaven and earth" and the "evolution of the universe."
It can be said that as long as those present are not dull and make an effort to comprehend thoroughly the operation of the Tao, in time they will surely be able to understand the most profound and mysterious Taoism, just like Yin Xi did when he asked Lao Tzu about the Tao.
If there is enough time, it might even be possible to create a technique for longevity that is comparable to that of the ancient sages.
Suddenly, Taoist Master Qiu, one of the most senior people present, bowed deeply and said, "Teacher, your Taoism is profound. I am a disciple who has glimpsed a glimpse of light from your Taoism. I have no regrets in this life."
Taoist Priest Li, the head of Quanzhen, also quickly bowed as a disciple and said, "Thank you, Master, for using your great power to lead me into Taoism."
Zhang Tianshi was also filled with gratitude and said, "Teacher's guidance is like the rebirth of our parents. Laozi also said that the Tao cannot be seen or heard, but Teacher, you actually let us 'see' and 'hear' the Tao. You are truly merciful."
"I am fortunate to have learned the great principles of my teacher, and I will always keep them in mind."
“Thank you for your guidance, teacher.”
"I have gained profound insights this time. If I write a book in the future, I will definitely put my teacher's name on it."
The remaining hundreds of Taoists all thanked the Immortal for his guidance.
Of course, not everyone has gained profound insights from this.
For example, Xu Xiaoli looked confused, but she just thought it was very interesting.
Lu Shisheng also had only a vague understanding and could not comprehend it as thoroughly as those older Taoists.
This group of elderly Taoists were enlightened, but most of them felt bitter.
Because they have already entered old age, it can be said that it is too late for them to hear the truth.
If someone could see the great Dao of the Immortal Being when he is forty years younger, they would not dare to say that they could attain enlightenment and immortality, but at least they could establish a school of thought.
There was even a Taoist woman in her seventies who burst into tears when she thought of this, "It's too late to realize it! I only regret that I met my master too late!"
Although Taoist priests in their eighties and nineties, such as Taoist priests Qiu, Li, and Xu, did not lose their composure like Taoist Kun, they were all sad in their hearts. Yes, it was too late for them to realize the truth.
Just when everyone is sad.
Fang Yi smiled and said, "The superior man hears the truth and practices it diligently; the average man hears the truth and is uncertain about it; the inferior man hears the truth and laughs at it. Although you are the same age as today, Confucius once said, 'If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening.' If you can understand the truth of the world, why should you fear death? Immortality is not the only thing, as long as the truth is in my heart, it is eternal."
After these words were spoken, everyone was deeply thoughtful!
The Taoist Kun, who had been crying loudly before, immediately stopped crying, smiled, and bowed to the Taoist once again, "Thank you for your guidance, Master. I have been too obsessed with my delusions."
yes.
If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening.
As long as the Tao remains in my heart, it is eternal. What else is there to ask for?
Taoist Priest Qiu, Taoist Priest Li, Taoist Priest Xu and others all had happy expressions on their faces.
Fang Yi pondered for a moment and said, "But you have understood my Dao. It would be a pity if you didn't leave a single word behind."
Zhang Tianshi was confused, "Teacher, what do you mean by that?"
Taoist Priest Li also raised his eyebrows and asked, "Does the teacher want to teach us the art of immortality?"
Hearing this, the hundreds of Taoists present were all moved.
The art of longevity is a secret that is not passed on, even the master has to keep it back.
For example, in ancient times, some techniques for cultivating the golden elixir required the use of Samadhi fire.
Samadhi fire requires mastering the temperature, which Master never mentions.
Now the real person is willing to teach?
The Taoists were naturally excited.
"Each person's longevity technique is different. If I rashly teach you my method, you might go astray."
Fang Yi looked at everyone seriously, "As the saying goes, one method can lead to everything. Although I will not directly teach you the secret of longevity, I can still give you some tips on cultivation."
Yes, he was going to give some "rewards".
If leading everyone to comprehend the great Dao is the dry goods, then talking about longevity is the reward.
Even if no one asked him to talk about immortality, because everyone knows that the art of immortality is a secret that cannot be passed on, no one would make such a request.
But Fang Yi understood one thing: not everyone can understand the great truth.
Next, I will learn the secret technique of longevity cultivation of the Hundreds of Families.
Some people who have realized the truth through the creation of the world and the evolution of the universe may not feel that they have lost out.
However, some people who don’t understand will definitely feel that it is not worth it.
He is not a "scammer", so naturally he wants everyone to feel that they are getting "great value for money" and be willing to share the secret techniques of longevity from various sects, so he is willing to give advice on longevity.
As he spoke, he pointed to the grass and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."
The Taoists quickly sat cross-legged on the ground.
Fang Yi also sat down on the grass and began to explain the so-called longevity method. "There are countless Taoist longevity methods, including the method of storing the spirit, the method of refining qi, the method of inner alchemy, etc. All methods return to one, and the ultimate goal is to transcend life and death. To be honest, although I have entered the realm of earthly immortals, I have not been able to transcend life and death, so I am only talking about longevity, not eternal life."
"We know."
"Teacher, you can talk."
A group of Taoists responded quickly.
Fang Yi then continued, saying, "Because I am practicing inner alchemy, I will only talk about the inner alchemy method." He paused, looked at everyone and asked, "What is inner alchemy?"
Taoist Priest Qiu asked tentatively, "Is it the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit?"
"That's right." Fang Yi nodded slightly. "The first step of inner alchemy is to refine essence into qi. Only by giving birth to the innate qi can you achieve immortality. I see that most of you here have true qi in your body. Although it is tiny, as long as you don't mess with your body, you can live a few decades longer than ordinary people. So... have you ever thought about how the true qi is refined from within yourself?"
When this question was asked, everyone was at a loss.
We are all cultivators. Anyone who can become the head of a sect must be a person of extraordinary talent, otherwise it is impossible for him to become the head. Naturally, it is not surprising for him to cultivate true Qi.
But practicing is like seeing flowers in the fog. The Taoist practice will tell you to use the river carts of the two kidneys to refine the true Qi.
But to be honest, no one present knew why the two kidney carts and the heart fire could produce true Qi.
Taoist Priest Li humbly asked, "Teacher, how did you make it?"
The others also looked curious.
Fang Yi smiled slightly and said only four words, "Innate True Seed."
It would have been fine if this hadn't been said. Once it was said, everyone became even more confused.
Zhang Tianshi asked in confusion, "The innate true seed is originally invisible and formless. Because the spirit and qi have been mixed, it makes the dantian harmonious and the whole body happy. The true qi is naturally generated. However, we cannot feel the true seed every time we practice. After all, it is invisible and formless. What do you think the innate true seed is?"
Fang Yi said: "It is because you don't know what the innate true seed is, so sometimes you can refine true qi, and sometimes you can't refine true qi, and you can never accumulate it to condense the golden elixir. If I can let you know what the innate true seed is?"
"What?"
"Teacher, can you tell us what the innate true seed is?"
"Oh my god, this is a unique secret technique that even our master doesn't teach us!"
"Yes, just like if you want to enter a trance you need to know where the ancestral orifice is. It all depends on your own enlightenment."
The Taoists were in an uproar. They really didn't expect that the immortal was so generous that he was willing to teach such a secret.
Yes, the innate true seed is a secret that cannot be passed on. Even a master will not pass it on to his disciples, and at most he will give a few reminders while they are practicing.
If he had not condensed the golden elixir, even if Fang Yi knew what the innate true seed was, he would not be able to tell anyone, including his own apprentice.
However, ever since he cultivated the true Qi and reached the current level of Earthly Immortal, he realized that even if he knew what the innate true seed was and used it to continuously refine Qi, he would still not be able to condense the golden elixir. Naturally, he no longer treated it as a secret.
Because the energy required to condense the golden elixir is too enormous.
Even if one drains all the energy from the human body, it cannot gather even one ten-thousandth of this huge amount.
So Fang Yi was willing to tell the secret.
"Silence! Silence! Listen to the teacher."
Taoist Master Qiu was so excited that he stopped everyone from making noise.
All the Taoist priests quickly shut up.
Fang Yi then said: "It's hard to explain it in words. I'll give you a visual demonstration as before."
"good."
"Thank you for the guidance, teacher."
The Taoists nodded repeatedly.
Fang Yi waved his hand and used illusion to implant two diagrams of the human body structure into everyone's mind.
A man and a woman.
The eight extraordinary meridians and more than one thousand acupuncture points of the human body are all lit up.
He stretched out his hand and pointed at a certain spot on the two kidneys, and a dazzling light as bright as the sun burst out from there, "This is the true seed of the male body."
After saying that, Fang Yi stretched out his hand and pointed at another human body structure diagram. A bright moon-like light shone, "This is the true seed of a woman's body." He paused for a moment, "You can use your own power to sense it and see if you can sense it here."
The Taoists did not dare to delay their practice and closed their eyes and began to practice their energy.
Only Xu Xiaoli was clueless and looked at everyone with dark eyes.
Fang Yi sat on the river bank without saying a word. He just released his spiritual sense to carefully observe everyone's practice of Qi. If he noticed that someone was in the wrong place, he would use his spiritual sense to remind them.
Soon, everyone sensed the location of the innate true seed.
"real!"
“I really felt it!”
"Teacher is so merciful! Teacher is so merciful!"
"I finally know what the innate true seed is! Teacher, thank you so much for your guidance."
All the Taoists present were so excited that their eyes were filled with tears.
They really didn't expect that one day they would know where the innate true seed was hidden.
After all, this is something that even my master would not explain.
At this moment, they looked at the real person with eyes full of gratitude, wishing they could regard him as their reborn parents.
Why is everyone so excited?
Because as long as they understand where the true seed is, they will be able to refine more true Qi and live longer!
If this isn’t reborn parenting, then what is?
The Taoists were so moved that they wanted to worship the Immortal as their master.
Unfortunately, they know they don’t have such blessing.
The Taoists couldn't help but look at Xu Xiaoli with eyes full of envy, thinking that this girl was so lucky to have the honor of having a master like Master Fang, who was well versed in the mysteries of the universe. They were truly envious.
