Immortal Master Invincible

Chapter 1168 Alien World (77)

Pang Xiaonan rolled down the car window, and galloped on the cross-sea bridge connecting Hailong Island and Huahai City. The warm sea breeze mixed with some fishy smells rushed towards his face, which made people feel refreshed. He turned on the radio, and the sound came from the speaker. A song that fits the occasion: "I am as free as the wind, like your tenderness, I can't keep it..."

Back home, Pang Xiaonan carefully dug out the million-year-old mountain ginseng from his bedroom, cut off a few ginseng whiskers with small scissors, wrapped them in red cloth, and found a thin wire to tie the red ginseng lightly. Cloth, let the ginseng whiskers wrapped in red cloth look taller, Pang Xiaonan planned this way, always go to Mr. Wang's house to eat and drink, even though he doesn't say anything, his courtesy is still Be thoughtful. "Old Wang, old Wang, these ginseng whiskers are worth tens of thousands of yuan. A few meals for you are definitely enough. We owe nothing to each other."

When I was busy in the bedroom, I accidentally saw the seven spirit stones placed inside. Pang Xiaonan thought to himself, should we put up the seven-star spirit stone array and absorb the spirit energy for a while?Because he looked at the time, it was only four o'clock, and it was still early for dinner.But then he dismissed this thought, "I'm so angry that I don't want to eat, and I won't have the appetite to eat after I inhale too much spiritual energy. I'd better save some energy to eat and drink."

Since it was still early, Pang Xiaonan planned to meditate on the terrace and enter a meditative state. "There are too many things during this time, it's time to clean up the dust in the mind."

So, Pang Xiaonan opened the bedroom door, walked to the terrace, and sat on the sofa facing the sea.

Many sects have the homework of meditation. For practitioners, this is an indispensable link. With the assistance of meditation, practitioners can get out of the misunderstanding of cultivation in time, guide cultivation to the correct path, and thus speed up the progress of cultivation. Progress and avoid going crazy.

The true popularity of meditation is caused by the popularity of yoga in China. Yoga is a practice of Borneo. The practice of Borneo is mainly fierce and spicy. Therefore, the mind often has restless thoughts, and the body also has many disadvantages of cultivation. It needs to be corrected through some gentle exercises, so yoga exercises have been developed in this way.

However, the similar exercises of various sects have the same effect. For example, the meditation of the Taoist party, such as the meditation of the Ami religion, are similar with minor differences.

Meditation is a technique and way to achieve samadhi, which focuses the mind, mind, and spirit completely on the original beginning; the ultimate goal is to lead people to the realm of liberation.

People can subdue the mind through meditation and transcend material desires; feel the direct communication with the original motivation.The simple practice of meditation can help people say goodbye to negative emotions and regain control of their lives.

According to the yogis, the ego, the human being, is controlled and dominated by being blinded by the three states of nature.If a person is under the influence of ignorance, he will desire a particular type of sensuality. For example, if a person is under the influence of ignorance, he may want to sleep or be anesthetized; If one is under the influence of a state of passion, he may enjoy sexual pleasure; if one is under the influence of a state of benevolence, one may enjoy a peaceful and quiet day in a park or in the country.In all these cases, therefore, the nature of man's desires is determined by which influence in nature governs his state.

According to yogis, as long as a person is still dominated by the three states of material nature, namely ignorance, passion and kindness, he is not free, which means that he has not been freed from the fetters of material desires.To be liberated from material desires, he must transcend the influence of these three states of nature.Everyone is blinded by ignorance, passion and kindness.Yet one of the three predominates at any given moment.

Ignorance is the worst state, and the result of this state is madness, hallucinations, delusions, sloth, etc.

A state of passion is superior to a state of ignorance, but it is characterized by major attachments, uncontrollable desires, pursuits, and intense effort.

And the state of goodness is purer and more radiant than other states.People in this state nurture and develop wisdom, but they are conditioned by the concept of happiness.

People in a state of goodness are only interested in their own well-being.In other words, although his desires are purer and more subtle than those of a man in a state of ignorance or passion, he is still self-centered.Such a person is very sad and depressed when a state of ignorance or a state of passion begins to affect his body and mind, and thereby deprives him of the happiness that is derived from a state of goodness.He is not yet free from all three influences—he cannot remain an unaffected, detached witness to their natural workings.He has not yet reached the level of loving service to the whole—so he is not really liberated.Only when the living being imprisoned in the physical body can transcend these three states, can he be freed from birth, death, old age and the sufferings of these three, and can enjoy the nectar in this life as well.

The idea that only those who are not interested in their own happiness can be truly happy may seem paradoxical and confusing to the ignorant.However, it is logical and understandable to a wise person.

Liberation from the influence of the three states of material nature is a gradual process.For example, if a person who was originally mainly in a state of ignorance practices yoga and adopts a yogic way of life, he gradually becomes more and more in a state of passion and more or less in a state of goodness.Then, as he continues to practice, he will gradually come under the influence of the state of goodness, less of the state of passion, and even less of the state of ignorance.Then, he also gradually transcends the influence of the state of goodness.Such a state is called a state of purified goodness, or a transcendental state, or samadhi.

Therefore, it is imperative for all meditators to try to free themselves from the influence of ignorance and states of passion.The way to do this is to turn more and more under the influence of the state of goodness.Over time, the meditators gradually surpassed even the influence of the state of goodness.

To transcend all these three states, one must first basically stick to the state of goodness, rather than clinging to the state of ignorance or passion, because the state of goodness is the starting point for getting rid of these three states.After attaining liberation, no matter which of ignorance, passion, or kindness becomes active, one remains unmoved.

Therefore, the aim of all meditation practice is to liberate one from the domination of these three states of material nature—first from the states of ignorance and passion, and finally, even the state of goodness.

Pang Xiaonan took a deep breath and entered a state of meditation.

Most people, when practicing meditation, will more or less encounter some resistance.

Meditation techniques before meditation, such as pranayama, bandha, mudra, as well as some techniques for cultivating and manipulating the breath of life.So, when practicing yoga voice meditation, do you have to practice these techniques together to get the best results?
In fact, you don't need to practice any pre-meditation techniques, just practice yoga voice meditation, you can reach the highest state of yoga meditation.

Like yoga poses, bandhas, mudras, and pranayama (the cultivation and manipulation of breath and prana) are all in the service of yoga voice meditation.If you feel that any kind of technique can directly or indirectly help you put your mind into yoga voice meditation, you may wish to practice these techniques.But if you don't need to rely on these techniques to achieve single-minded immersion in yoga voice meditation, don't waste your precious time.

For example, someone may practice yoga poses for their health and strength, as well as release superficial tension and stress, so that he can easily achieve a state of mindfulness while doing yoga voice meditation.That said, his yoga poses are in the service of yoga voice meditation.Likewise, some people practice bandhas, mudras, and pranayama, or other techniques for cultivating or manipulating the breath, because they feel that these practices can directly or indirectly assist the practice of yogic voice meditation.

Voice meditation does not require the assistance of techniques such as the cultivation and manipulation of breath, on the contrary, these techniques need the assistance of yoga voice meditation to achieve true, deep spiritual value; otherwise, their value can only be limited to the body and the psychological level too.

If you are used to practicing the preparatory techniques before meditation, you can continue to practice these techniques along with yoga voice meditation.But if you are not familiar with these tranquility techniques, from the perspective of the essence of meditation and the primary and secondary relationship of breath adjustment and tranquility, there is no need to spend precious time on it (but if you have a specific disease or discomfort, learn and practice these Preparing techniques before meditation, may gain certain benefits).

The ultimate goal of meditation is not to make the mind empty or to achieve the state of "no self", but to let the mind sense the spiritual transcendental voice, so as to achieve the effect of purifying consciousness.

In general, attempts to make the mind "empty and empty" are almost futile, and such attempts only lead to frustration.Even at the moment when the state of "no thoughts" appears, you will think: "Ah, I almost made it! I almost have no thoughts!" But thinking like this, does not mean that new thoughts enter the mind Yet? !It's you who are thinking "I'm not thinking about anything".According to yogic science, the state of "selflessness" is also impossible.According to yoga, Nirvana does not mean the end of existence, but the end of meaningless existence of ignorance and suffering.True and perfect Nirvana is the realization of a being filled with spiritual love, inner wisdom and purpose.There is nothing more real to us than our own existence, and nothing more natural than being aware of our existence.

Therefore, it is difficult, in fact impossible, to think that the purpose of yoga meditation is to make us unaware of our own existence or to cease to exist.Any attempt to destroy existence is really just a hopeless struggle and a waste of time, which does not solve the suffering at all.The solution to suffering is not to try to end or forget our existence, but to make our existence more meaningful, filled with spiritual love and wisdom, and ultimately lead to a fulfilled life.

If people lack spiritual love and wisdom, it will naturally be difficult to recognize the purpose of existence, and they will always be in a state of unhappiness.However, through the practice of yoga meditation, we realize the meaning of existence.Therefore, what we seek is no longer ending or forgetting ourselves, but knowing that life has a longer-term purpose and living happily.

But for Pang Xiaonan, these are not problems, because his meditation state is already quite proficient, just like when he is absorbing spiritual power, he can completely reach the state of selflessness.

After meditating for about half an hour, Pang Xiaonan woke up naturally.He controlled his eyes to turn around a few times, then took a few deep breaths, sat quietly for a while, stretched his waist, and stood up with his hands on the ground.

At this moment, Pang Xiaonan was refreshed, looked at the vast sea and yawned, and finally made up for the mental state he hadn't slept all night.

Pang Xiaonan breathed into the air, then took out his mobile phone to see that it was time to eat, so he dusted off the dust on his body, left the terrace, and walked downstairs.

When he came to the kitchen, Pang Xiaonan picked up the thermos that boiled water, poured half a glass of water into his teacup, then picked up the teacup and poured the boiled water down his throat in one gulp, drank it happily, burped, and put down the teacup , go out.

At this moment, the setting sun was about to fall into the sea level, and the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sidewalk through the gaps in the leaves, leaving mottled marks. All the scenery was so pleasant, Pang Xiaonan hummed a song unconsciously, "If the sea can take away my sorrow, it is like taking away every river. If you love the past and you no longer miss it, let it drift away with the wind. If the sea can call back the love you once had, let me spend my whole life Wait. If you love the past and you no longer miss it, let it drift away with the wind, all the injuries you have suffered, all the tears you have shed, my love, please take them all away..."

Walking to Mr. Wang's villa, Pang Xiaonan knocked on the door of his house. As usual, it was Su Xiaomei who opened the door. Pang Xiaonan greeted warmly: "Aunt Mei, I'm sorry to trouble you again."

Su Xiaomei took Pang Xiaonan's arm, pulled him into the room, and responded enthusiastically: "Xiaonan, why are you being polite to Aunt Mei? Councilor Wang told me after he came back that you want to come over for dinner. Two dishes, now the dishes are on the table, come in quickly..."

When Pang Xiaonan came to Mr. Wang's restaurant, Mr. Wang and Peng Yuyan were already sitting at the dining table. Seeing Pang Xiaonan coming, Peng Yuyan waved and said, "Xiaonan, come and sit. We have been waiting for you for a long time."

Councilor Wang also waved and said with a smile: "Xiao Nan, you are late, you will have to drink three drinks later."

Pang Xiaonan smiled and waved his hand and said, "Old Wang, you are not being kind. We have an appointment for dinner and there is no specific time. Why am I late? Maybe you guys are early?"

Councilor Wang said with a hearty smile: "I knew that you always have a reason. Forget it, I am not willing to drink this wine myself. People say to save alcohol and treat guests. Since you don't want to drink, then I will drink it myself." Drink more."

Pang Xiaonan sat down opposite Peng Yuyan, took out the gift box he carried with him and put it on the table, and said to Mr. Wang: "Old Wang, don't say that I always come to your house for dinner. Here, this is my gift for you." Just like what you said, there are comings and goings, so you can’t say I’m not kind in the future.”

Councilor Wang was slightly taken aback, thinking that a person like Pang Xiaonan who never suffered a disadvantage could bring a gift, quite surprised, then asked: "What?"

The red cloth package carefully prepared by Pang Xiaonan looked very tall and elegant. Mr. Wang and Peng Yuyan couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Pang Xiaonan's gourd for a moment. Take it apart and see for yourself."

Mr. Wang was not polite, picked up the red cloth package and opened it, seeing that the very high-end package quickly revealed its original shape after he disassembled it a few times, "I thought why baby, just these few hairs must."

Pang Xiaonan was upset at the moment, curled his lips and said, "Just these few beards? Old Wang, you're talking too lightly. Just these few beards, do you know how much it's worth?"

Councilor Wang threw the unpacked red cloth package on the dining table, and said disapprovingly, "How much is it worth? Don't tell me, this little scrap is worth eight thousand?"

Pang Xiaonan was completely irritated by Mr. Wang, with a sullen expression on his face, "Damn, old Wang, I brought you all the beards of that old mountain ginseng tree out of kindness, and you don't know what to buy? Qian, these few whiskers, calculated by volume, are at least worth close to one hundred thousand, and the whiskers are the essence, so it’s worth more than this, do you want it? Don’t let me take it away.”

Speaking of which, Pang Xiaonan stretched out his hand to get the red cloth package, he was indeed very angry, and kindly treated it like a donkey's liver and lungs.

But his hand was only halfway out, and Mr. Wang hurriedly grabbed the red cloth package in his hand, and said to Pang Xiaonan: "Forget it, forget it, courtesy is light and affection is heavy, no matter what the value of this thing is, As long as it's brought by you, I'll accept it." Then he put the red cloth package on the dining table far away from Pang Xiaonan's reach.

"Let me tell you, old Wang." Pang Xiaonan didn't bother to snatch it. Originally, this ginseng was brought to Mr. Wang, "Don't waste this thing, you soak it in wine, and when you drink later You know how useful it is.”

"Wine?" Mr. Wang teased. "It's still cheaper for you when you don't have enough wine? You know I won't drink alone. Which time you drink without you? Isn't the wine still cheaper for you?"

"Damn it?" Pang Xiaonan was a little furious at what Mr. Wang said, "Do you want it or not? I was slandered like this for giving me a fucking gift, forget it, give it back to me!" Pang Xiaonan was about to reach out his hand Grab that red cloth package.

Councilor Wang opened Pang Xiaonan's hand with a palm, and said with a smile, "I'm just kidding, the things you gave are all in your heart, why would I not want them? Come, let's eat, eat..."
