boom!
Murong Heshu was stunned on the spot, her beautiful eyes wide open.
In all these thousands of years, has there ever been such an arrogant and perverse person?
They actually said that the Way of Heaven is wrong!
They even said that the true Dao is actually beyond the Heavenly Dao. What is that?
fear!
Murong Heshu didn't even dare to think any further.
Because her worldview will collapse. After all, the ancient martial arts education taught her from a young age to follow the way of heaven and obey the laws of nature, and to use this as a basis to continuously improve her worldview.
Lin Yu smiled slightly, "I know you can't accept what I'm saying, and you might never understand it in your entire life!"
"But it really exists!"
"You may have heard that a saint once made a vow: 'I will not become a Buddha until hell is emptied!'"
"According to the laws of Heaven, the cycle of reincarnation in the six realms means that hell can never be empty! This is an objective fact, but why would a sage make such a great vow?"
"Or perhaps, a Western saint created a Buddha-land called the Western Paradise with the Eighteen Great Vows, where the beings in that land are free from all suffering and only enjoy bliss! This is simply impossible. According to our universal values and logic, such a place simply does not exist!"
"So, why?" Murong Heshu's eyes flickered; she seemed to have grasped something, yet she still seemed puzzled.
Lin Yu said calmly, "All things in this world, all people and events, are the result of shared karma. They are all part of a dream woven by all living beings. Ninety-nine point ninety-nine percent of people are NPCs! These people live their lives in a daze, following their karma. When they die, the four elements and five elements decompose, and the first five consciousnesses—sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch—cease in turn. Then, the sixth consciousness, which controls thoughts, dies out. Next, the source of thoughts, the seventh consciousness, the concept, or ego, also dies out. Finally, the eighth consciousness, which contains all the seeds of karma, the true false self, departs. When it departs, it manifests a person's last thought, which determines where they will go in the next life."
For example, a gluttonous person will most likely be reborn as a pig, while a person of integrity will still be reborn as a scholar who passes the imperial examinations. All beings are subject to the cycle of rebirth according to their karma!
This karma is the most powerful and terrifying force in the cycle of reincarnation. It is so terrifying that it can gather a group of karmic creditors into one family, causing them to constantly stagnate and never escape poverty. It is so terrifying that it can gather them into one society, causing involution, where everyone is eating human blood buns and becoming numb and indifferent.
What a terrible world this is!
The classic film "The Way of Heaven" was written by a highly accomplished author, but it didn't fully capture the essence of the story. This is because he merely described the truth of the world without revealing its true logic.
Why, why is the world like this?
Detachment?
No one can escape the pull of karma!
Only two words—the power of will!
I know some people are bad, and some people don't deserve pity.
But I try to understand them with my heart and help them in a reasonable way; that is compassion. That is the power of vow! Of course, truly helping them isn't about giving them money or feeding them. It's better to teach someone how to fish than to give them a fish. If anger could save people, I would be an angry Vajra; if killing could save people, then I would kill! I have no attachment to anything, I am not attached to any dharma, and I have a clear conscience—that is true sincerity!
Lin Yu spoke eloquently.
Perhaps he had drunk too much, which made him talk more.
However, a cultivator must discuss the Dao and put their understanding into practice; this is called practical cultivation and verification.
"This world is already hard enough; in this restless atmosphere, it's hard to have positive emotions!"
Lin Yu continued calmly, "Perhaps none of you ancient martial arts practitioners know that there is a void in this world called Banbuduo. It is a sacred place for demons and the living dead, specializing in collecting negative energy from the human world, like a garbage bag of the mortal world. However, it is already operating beyond its capacity because there are too many complaints, too much injustice, and too much suffering in the world!"
"Suffering is not the essence of spiritual practice. It's true that suffering can temper a person, but if it's too much suffering, it's difficult for a person to turn towards good. When social morality deteriorates, more people make ill-gotten gains, class distinctions become increasingly difficult to overcome, and the overall environment is bad. Everyone is focused on money and profit; who will turn towards good, who will practice spirituality? What is national fortune? National fortune comes when there are more people practicing spirituality and more positive energy. Otherwise, where does national fortune come from? If there is more negative energy and more immoral people, national fortune won't be good either! After all, if the parents aren't cut out for it, how can you expect your child to be number one?"
"What I'm doing is improving the overall environment. It may seem like I'm saving the people, but it's actually saving the country!"
After listening to Lin Yu's explanation, Murong Heshu suddenly felt enlightened.
She seemed to have gained a lot of insight, and her understanding seemed to have opened another door.
"I think I understand what you mean. The way to solve problems is never through confrontation. The best way to solve low-dimensional problems is through higher dimensions! Is that right?"
In her understanding, Lin Yu's thinking is a higher-dimensional way of thinking; he doesn't see the world with human eyes.
Because the human eye does not have such a dimension.
For example, the mindset of a ruler is how to accomplish and consolidate his rule.
For example, when a subject is in charge of a government office, his thinking is about how to use the power he holds to carry out the monarch's will while keeping his own official position.
For example, a capitalist's mindset is how to extract more surplus value from people.
For example, a rich person's mindset is how to maintain their social class.
For example, a poor person's mindset is how to change their lying position so that they can have food to eat and survive.
Lin Yu nodded. "No matter what social class people are born into, they will face all kinds of troubles. For example, the most realistic problem right now is that men should get married and have children when they reach a certain age, but some people are unlucky and cannot do these things."
