Can you live forever

Chapter 382 Patriarch's statement, gossip practice

Zhang Zhixiang in the Golden Palace has always been in that state of meditation, but he has not entered into a samadhi, but belongs to that kind of ethereal state where his life is hanging by a thread. He can perceive all the information from the outside world, but he can deal with it with an absolutely calm attitude.

In fact, this belongs to the death of the consciousness and the life of the primordial spirit.

Breaking away from the influence of the body and soul, he observed everything almost in an absolute "third person", but it was not without subjective ideas, he also knew what he should do.

This state between life and death is a crisis, but also a great opportunity.

Patriarch Sanfeng brought him back to Wudang to form alchemy, so naturally he would not leave Zhang Zhixiang here, so every day Patriarch would come to give a lecture outside the Golden Palace.

Today we will talk about Kanli.

"In our practice, we always talk about the intersection of Kanli and Li. It seems that we don't look at other hexagrams except Kanli. In fact, this is not the case. The gossip is also about practice."

"The two hexagrams of heaven and earth, Qian and Kun, people are in the sky and the earth, and the sky and the earth are above and below."

"As for the human body, the other six hexagrams must be followed."

"The heart is Lihuo, and the kidney is Kanshui."

"We see that the hexagrams in the sky are moving, and they are divided into three hexagrams: wind, fire, and Ze. Why? Because the sky closest to us is the wind."

"One floor higher, where the breath is surging is the fire."

"In Shuowen Jiezi, there is electricity, yin and yang, and thunder and lightning are produced by yin and yang, but where does thunder and lightning come from? The sky, the clouds, and the sky in the middle we can see are moving. This is fire."

"The sky on top is moving, so what is it? It's Ze."

"The sky is in the water, for Ze."

"Because the uppermost sky is too far away, we can't actually feel its changes. We often look at the sky, the blue sky and white clouds, peaceful and peaceful. The sky is so far away, and it doesn't seem to move or touch it."

"But when we lowered our heads and saw the sky in the pool, we found that the sky is farther away, but it can also be touched."

"When the wind blows, the waves are sparkling, and the sky is in the water, swaying leisurely."

"Very harmonious and beautiful."

"When we look at the ocean, the end of the sea is connected to the sky, and the water and the sky are also connected, so there is a saying that the water and the sky are one color."

"In this Sanyin hexagram, Feng is the eldest daughter, Li is the middle daughter, and Dui is the young girl."

"Girls are the best."

Patriarch Sanfeng is not a strict and rigid person, so he also made a joke with Zhang Zhixiang, but at the moment Zhang Zhixiang has no emotions, can't give feedback, and doesn't have any mood swings.

The patriarch didn't care either, and what he said was to remind Zhang Zhixiang not to be too obsessed with this absolutely rational state.

If you really give up your physical body, you will give up your life, and your practice in this life will come to an end.

After unraveling, the patriarch continued: "Dui Gua is in the upper sky, so when we move our thoughts, we must know that the sky is in the water when we do kung fu."

"To realize how peaceful and natural it is."

"The heart is the viscera of the god, the brain is the viscera of the god, the viscera is the storage, it is the place for storing and nourishing, and the viscera is the place for containing and circulating, so the god is stored in the heart, but operates in the brain."

"Heart is yang, brain is yin."

"When you can realize the beauty of Ze Gua and realize that the sky is in the water."

"Heart and kidney will naturally intersect."

"Kan and Li intersect, use kung fu on the Ze hexagram."

"We often say in practice that the trick is just the word jing, and the word jing should be in the opening of the entrance. Where is the opening of the entrance? The root of the mountain? The center of the eyebrow? The palace? The sea of ​​air? The heart of heaven?"

"It's all, and it's not."

"The so-called borrowing falsehoods to cultivate the truth, you must first treat the falsehood as the truth, and then you can cultivate the truth."

"A real hole in the entrance should also be on this Ze hexagram."

"The moon in the water, the flower in the mirror, the sky in the water, and the man in the heaven and the earth, the mystery is mysterious, the gate of all wonders. It is also said that the god of the valley is immortal, which is called the mysterious female. The gate of the mysterious female is the root of the heaven and the earth. Use it infrequently."

"If you study internal arithmetic, you should know that the purpose is to mix elements and return to one."

"Therefore, the kung fu of keeping away from lead and mercury actually needs to see Tai Chi and gossip."

After Patriarch Sanfeng finished speaking, he raised his head to look at the sky. Ever since Zhang Zhixiang came, the sky looked cloudless to others, but to Patriarch Sanfeng, it was dark clouds overwhelming the city.

Zhang Zhixiang's karma is too heavy.

In this state between life and death, those causes and effects rushed like a wave. Every day at noon, there was a thunderbolt that struck the golden hall, and finally fed back to the ever-burning lamp, causing a wave of swaying.

This is the doom it deserves.

This will not eliminate much karma. Wait until next year during the Waking of Insects, when the outbreak will be the most powerful. The yin and yang sparks are called electricity. The strength can also be fully erupted at this time.

At this time, the ups and downs encountered on the road of practice.

If it's the Yinxian sect, it's fine. For this kind of Huiguang sect, whether you form alchemy or not is a matter for you alone?The accumulation of karma does not allow you to form alchemy.

Zhang Zhixiang closed himself to death, so naturally he couldn't answer what Patriarch Sanfeng said.

After a thunderbolt struck, Patriarch Sanfeng said: "We looked at the lake, we looked at the fire, and next we looked at the wind."

"What's under the heart? It's the lungs."

"We say that the lungs store the soul, but since there is storage, there are the internal organs to operate, but the six internal organs are the gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, bladder, and triple burner."

"This is not the internal organs we want to talk about, just like the brain is the internal organs of God."

"The viscera that operates the seven souls is our entire body."

"Seven souls include corpse dog, stalker, sparrow yin, thief swallowing, non-poison, decontamination, and stinky lungs."

"Before we talk about the wind of the Xun hexagram, let's talk about the seven souls first. Take your time. You may have heard many things, but you still have to sort them out to check for gaps and fill in the gaps, and lay a solid foundation."

"There are many interpretations of the seven souls, but I only talk about the body."

"The first soul, corpse dog."

"What is a corpse dog? Don't we have a saying about sleeping with a dragon lying on its back and a half corpse on its back? When you fall asleep, it is actually a corpse. Like you, you actually sleep deeper, but you wake up instead."

"After we fall asleep, we will react to external movements. This reaction is a dead dog."

"Some people's dead dogs are not sensitive, and they can't shout when they are asleep. Some people's dead dogs are too sensitive, and they will wake up when they fall asleep if there is a little trouble. Sleeping like this is not good."

"The corpse dog is the soul that determines sleep, so it ranks first."

"We often say that the human body has its own great medicine, and this great medicine is sleep. If you don't sleep well, it will not only affect your body, but your whole spirit will collapse."

"The dead dog is about sleep, but when is the best time to sleep?"

"There is a saying in the theory of innocence in ancient times, people in ancient times worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, followed the four seasons, and were in harmony with yin and yang, so they lived long."

"It should be natural to rest at sunset, but the world is more and more prosperous, and the city is busy at night, and most of them don't rest until midnight, and there are not a few people who stay up all night. How many people can still rest at sunset?"

"The viscera of the seven souls are all over the body, but individual souls have their destinations."

"For example, the viscera that eliminates impurity is the triple burner."

"During the Meridian Stream, the Sanjiao is used at Haishi, and some schools of Chinese medicine believe that the Sanjiao is the pancreas. Why is it called the pancreas? We have pancreas, which is used to wash our hands. In the triple burner, in the pancreas."

"Thus, in order for decontamination to work best, we first have to be asleep at Haishi."

"But in Xushi, he also followed the Pericardium Sutra."

"If the mind is uneasy, the corpse dog's vigilance will be abnormal, so this shows why the corpse dog is the first spirit."

"We go to sleep, and the decontamination goes to work, cleaning the body of the debris that has accumulated throughout the day."

"And how did our residue come about before the decontamination work?"

"This is related to Non-drug and Swallow Thief."

"What is poison?"

"Cold poison, fire poison, the poison of all lies in the accumulation, and the poison is only when it gathers. It is not poison, it is to disperse the poison, and to evacuate the accumulated things. After the evacuation, the swallowing thief will destroy it, and the swallowing thief will destroy Afterwards, these toxins will be removed by decontamination, and eventually all toxins, food residues, etc., will enter the large intestine, and Fushiya will start to work."

"Fushiya ranks the second soul, because even if it is not poisonous, swallowing thieves, and decontamination does not work, when our stomach qi still exists, when our life is still maintained, we have the function of eating and digesting."

"When Fushiya's function is eliminated, people are not far from death."

"What is Fushiya?"

"There is an answer in the story of Lian Po being old and still able to eat or not. It is said that Lian Po has three arrows after one meal, and this arrow is shit."

"Fu Shi is lying in the arrow."

"Obviously it's all the residue after digesting and extracting nutrients, and it's the filth that's been eliminated, but it's a bit incomprehensible to go to Fushiya."

"But the real beauty is here."

"Tai Chi Yin and Yang, there is no absolute in anything, and the most corrupt place has the function of turning decay into magic."

"We fertilize the fields, what is fertilizer?"

"Fushiya is the principle. Like plants, we can turn decay into magic. Through Fushiya's function, we can obtain the most needed and most precious thing in the human body—essence."

"Or in other words, Jingyuan."

"We say that the kidney stores the essence, and the essence is hidden in the kidney. Is the essence that we can see, the real essence, produced by the kidney? No, it is between the bladder and the small intestine. Chinese medicine calls it Jinggong."

"Essence is produced in the sperm palace, but it is actually a kind of blood, so we also call it blood essence."

"After a person dies, the small intestine becomes cold, and the essence and blood are naturally bloody."

"But when a person is alive, the essence and blood in the sperm uterus will turn white. If the problem of 'blood in the stool' is involved, the root cause of the disease lies in the small intestine and the heart. If the heart fire is insufficient, the small intestine is not hot enough, and the essence and blood will turn red."

"Essence and blood are not only those that can be seen, but spirit and spirit have another meaning. Spirit is the power of God."

"Our soul, mind, and will all need to be driven by spirit. It is the nutrient and power of everything. Therefore, if there is something wrong with Fushiya, the whole person's energy will be sluggish."

"The folks also say that a good man can't stand San Pao Xi, and that's the reason."

"We need Fushi to turn decay into magic and extract essence to maintain our lives and maintain our spirit."

"And why is Queyin behind Fushi?"

"That's the reason. Fushiya can get the essence, and the sparrow Yin can be restored to health. We also have the essence and blood to refine the essence and transform Qi."

"Therefore, we often teach our disciples to practice qigong, and the best time is the best time."

"Because walking the large intestine meridian at Maoshi can stimulate the effect of Fushi."

"Besides Fushiya, the last soul, the stinky lung, is also the most critical one."

"During the Meridian Flow, when Yin and Yang alternate, it is time to walk the Lung Meridian. In the lung, we not only have uncontrolled non-toxic automatic work, but also rely on our thoughts to regulate breathing."

"So, the lungs are where nature meets nurture."

"Our practice is about to start from the lungs, and it is also the change of the hexagrams in the sky. The only thing we can feel personally is the wind of the Xun hexagram..."

"When the breeze blows, the water waves automatically, the sky is in the water, and the water is in the sky."

"This is practice."

"Spirit, soul, and will are all in one breath."

"The way to longevity also begins with breathing."

"And the most wonderful part of breathing is the fetal breath. Zhang Zhixiang, you have reached the state of fetal breath in meditation, but have you ever truly returned to the fetal breath?"

Patriarch Sanfeng said so much, but the last question was like a slap in the face. His sober and rational primordial spirit, after a short period of confusion, felt sleepy inexplicably, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Zhang Zhixiang sitting there is no longer a sitting statue.

If a Buddhist Zen master came over and saw it, he would definitely reprimand him, not to mention the double cross, his back was drooping, his whole body seemed to be asleep, his head was drooping, his hands were in the posture of a baby clenching fists, and his legs had already fallen asleep. undisciplined.

Seeing this, Patriarch Sanfeng finally showed a satisfied smile.

He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You can teach a child."

After all, it doesn't matter whether Zhang Zhixiang can hear it at this time, continue to finish the gossip, and after finishing the three hexagrams of wind, fire, and Ze Tiandong, let's talk about the three hexagrams of earthquake, mountain, water, and thunder.

"The movement on the ground is a mountain, and the hexagram Gen is a mountain, which belongs to earth."

"Soil responds to the spleen and stomach. People live in the world. Eating and drinking are the most important things, but what to eat and drink is extremely important."

"There is too much food in the stomach, and the ability of the spleen is in the process of transporting and transforming, and the flow of qi and blood in the whole body must be slower. When eating too much food, the brain is not so bright, and it is also related to this."

"Therefore, we must make good use of the power of the spleen to transport and transform, and not let it be wasted in the stomach. It is best to eat the wind and drink the dew, so as not to waste it."

"The so-called lack of energy to eat is also the same reason."

"It doesn't mean that you must indica, but that you will naturally indica after you have cultivated, or in other words, it will be the same as what you eat, so eat more light, so as not to waste the power of the spleen."

"Let this power come...Yugong Yishan."

"Gen is a mountain, so far."

"Cultivation is a matter of returning from the acquired to the innate. It is an act of man's determination to overcome the nature, so it must have great perseverance. It is the Foolish Old Man who has moved mountains for hundreds of generations. This is the first sentence in the picture of the Nei Jing - iron ox plowing the land to grow money."

"You have to drive the iron ox to plow the land, so that you can grow precious money."

"Among the 64 hexagrams, the hexagram peeling off the mountain will be eroded by wind and rain, but the hexagram Dishanqian is auspicious."

"Therefore, where the mountain is, life will end."

"The Foolish Old Man Moves Mountains, Lives Long Seeing."
