The Dharma Sea of ​​the Green Snake

Chapter 122 The Creator Game Cellular Automata
"call……"

Under the impact of the waterfall, Pei Wende, who was completely relaxed, just took a few simple breaths, and completely sank his superconsciousness into the sea of ​​subconsciousness.

Like a fish returning to the sea, Pei Wende only maintains the most basic "self" consciousness, swimming freely in countless fragmented thoughts.

Then, as time goes on, this period of consciousness, which is only the most basic "self", begins to become sober and enlightened a little bit, and then has a clear memory and thinking ability.

Compared with the previous hazy and fuzzy state of meditation, the consciousness is between existence and non-existence.

At this moment, Pei Wende is more like a "lucid dream", he can control everything in his subconscious at will, and become an omnipotent creator.

All the books I have read in my past and present lives, all the deeds I have experienced before...

But all kinds of things, as long as Pei Wende still has memories, can be reproduced and completed in this state—whether he still remembers the details or not.

This is the power of deep meditation, and it is also the horror of this lucid dream.

In this state, Pei Wende fully activated his subconscious mind, and recorded what he saw and heard in his past and present lives with incomparable clarity.

The most important thing is that Pei Wende's current state of "deep meditation" is not the practice method taught by Zen Master Lingyou.

It was a new method, a new supernatural power that had not yet been verified, that he had spent half a year gradually figuring out based on what he had learned in his previous and present lives.

According to Buddhist records, people are born with eight consciousnesses.

They are eye consciousness, ear consciousness, nose consciousness, tongue consciousness, body consciousness, consciousness, mana consciousness, and alaya consciousness.

Among them, the first five consciousnesses of eye consciousness, ear consciousness, nose consciousness, tongue consciousness and body consciousness respectively correspond to the five different senses of form, sound, smell, taste and touch. It is a way for human beings to distinguish everything.

And the sixth sense—consciousness can be regarded as the synthesis and sublimation of the first five senses, and it is also the key sense for the reason why "human beings" are human, to perceive external objects and distinguish themselves.

Eye consciousness can only see, ear consciousness can only hear, nose consciousness can only smell, tongue consciousness can only taste, body consciousness can only touch...

Only the existence of consciousness enables the first five senses to have the discrimination function, which can distinguish color, volume, smell, sweetness and bitterness, and pain.

Make people realize that they are actually "living" creatures, not immobile dead things.

The "six roots are pure" that Buddhism often says refers to these six different senses.

Only by jumping out of the limitations of the six senses of consciousness and perceiving everything from a deeper level can it be possible to escape from the sea of ​​suffering in the world and reach the other side of samsara.

The Mana Consciousness and Alaya Consciousness above the Six Consciousnesses are actually a Buddhist concept extended from this.

The first six senses help the world to recognize all phenomena in the world, and the memories, feelings, good and evil, and worries gathered from them form a solidified "self-attachment"-mana consciousness.

It is an "impression" formed by a person's lifetime memories and experiences.

The different personalities of different people, such as greed for money, righteousness, fear of death, bravery, lust, nobleness, etc., are all determined by Manas consciousness.

A step further than mana consciousness is alaya consciousness.

It is an eternal and immortal thing that transcends ordinary individuals, and what a person does, what he understands and feels in his life, and the cause and effect created are all stored in it.

As long as the alaya consciousness remains unchanged, even if you reincarnate hundreds of millions of times, only the "impression" in the mana consciousness will change, and the essence of "you" will remain unchanged.

From the perspective of Taoism, the so-called "Alaya Consciousness" in Buddhism is the soul of heaven and the soul of earth in their concept.

It is also a necessary condition for Taoist practitioners to gather their souls and travel freely in the world.

If you insist on changing to Pei Wende's own understanding, the essence of Alaya's consciousness may be the soul, which is the subconscious sea hidden under the surface consciousness of human beings.

Whether it's animations, novels, or other materials that he came across in his previous life, or the knowledge of practice he learned in this life, he told Pei Wende that the so-called "self" was just the tip of the iceberg of the huge subconscious sea.

[This road can really work, the two paths of Buddhism and Taoism still have something in common after all...]

Pei Wende didn't know whether the ability to develop this subconscious mind to the extreme was the alaya consciousness in the Buddhist concept, or whether it was equivalent to the heavenly soul and earthly soul in Taoism.

He only knows that in this state of deep meditation, he can reproduce all the things he has seen and experienced, and he can even realize the heaven-defying operations such as "one dream for a thousand years".

If they were just ordinary practitioners, they might use this state of deep meditation to speed up their learning and repeat certain battles they had experienced.

But as a traveler from the 21st century, Pei Wende's use of this deep meditation state is even more bold, far beyond what people of this era can match.

[Buddha said, one flower one world, one leaf one bodhi. 】

Incomparably clear consciousness manifests in the turbulent sea of ​​consciousness.

It was Pei Wende's will, and it was also the subconscious realm he expanded to test his limits.

Within this domain, countless bubble-like phantoms appear and disappear, each of which is a scene that Pei Wende has experienced, seen, or imagined.

However, no matter what the scenes in these bubbles are, there will always be a villain who is somewhat similar to Pei Wende appearing in them, and their life and death determine the existence time of the bubbles.

Or the soldiers returning from the battlefield, or the unjust souls who turned into ghosts, or the swordsmen holding swords to the end of the world, or pirates crossing the ocean, or little beasts waiting to be fed...

Whenever the "absolute protagonist" in these bubbles dies, it is the time when the bubbles are disillusioned.

Immediately afterwards, a new bubble will appear in the original position, replacing the original one, and a new scene and life evolution will unfold.

[It seems that it is indeed correct to name this state of trance meditation with "enlightenment in a dream". 】

The will above all villains suddenly let out a chuckle, because this feeling made Wen Wende feel like he was playing a role-playing game.

Every bubble is a world...

Every world has an absolute protagonist...

And these protagonists often go through the experience that Pei Wende preset in advance...

The most important thing is that when facing these bubbles, Wen Wende is only playing the role of the creator, but not the omniscient and omnipotent God.

Because these bubbles were designed by Wen Wende based on the "cellular automaton" model and theory of his previous life, they have a certain ability of self-development and evolution.

Theoretically speaking, as long as Wen Wende has set up the initial conditions and trigger mechanism, these bubbles will naturally generate various complex reactions.

In other words, every detail change in the bubble will cause a chain reaction in the whole bubble.

In fact, even Pei Wende, the creator of the bubble, didn't know, once the chain reaction inside the bubble happened, in which direction the whole bubble would evolve.

It is precisely because of this unpredictable and automatic evolution that many scientists have regarded the "cellular automata" model as an opportunity to deny the existence of God since its birth.

In their conception, even if God does exist, he is just a "man" who sets the initial conditions and trigger mechanisms.

The evolution of life is the evolution of life itself, and there is no god who creates human beings in his own image in the religious sense and is omniscient and omnipotent.
