What kind of foundation should be built?
Ink painting never considered this issue, so he asked:
"Is there any difference between foundation building and foundation building?"
"The monks are very different from monks, so the foundation building is naturally different."
Mr. Zhuang then explained:
"The foundation of a monk depends on spiritual consciousness, spiritual power and physical body."
"The sea of ​​consciousness, qi, and physical bodies born from different monks are different in nature. The practices and Taoist methods they practice are also diverse. Different choices will naturally be different."
Ink painting is a little worried.
He originally thought that it would be good to build a foundation, but he didn't expect that there would be so many things to do if he built a foundation, and he would choose to build something.
But he had never considered these things before and didn't know what to do for a moment.
"Sir, can't this be calculated one step at a time?" Mo Hua whispered.
Mr. Zhuang said: "A monk practices Taoism by refining qi and cultivating books, building foundations and paving the way, step by step, and considering what path to take and what path to practice at the beginning. It will be very difficult to change the course later."
Mo Hua paused and asked weakly: "Sir, what is the best thing for me to do with this kind of work?"
Mr. Zhuang looked at the ink painting and said bluntly:
"Your physical body is not good, your spiritual roots are not good either."
Although Mo Hua knew the things that were innate and weak in spirit roots were so moderate, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he heard Mr. Zhuang say this, so he asked tentatively:
"Is it really that bad?"
He thought it was okay, at least the spiritual roots were still relatively low.
When Mr. Zhuang saw Mo Hua's big watery eyes, he couldn't bear to say it.
"It's not bad either..." Mr. Zhuang said tactfully, "It's just that there's a lot of potential!"
Mo Hua was stunned and her expression became complicated.
Mr. Zhuang's words are indeed very tactful...
There is great potential in the future, which means that the ability is very poor now...
"Then I may have any advantages in body refining or spiritual power in the future?" Mo Hua still had a hint of expectation.
Mr. Zhuang touched his chin, "It depends on whom he compares with."
"How to say it?"
Mr. Zhuang said: "First of all, you are a middle and lower-level spiritual root, which seems pretty good, but this is compared with the casual cultivators in Tongxian City. If you compare with family cultivators, sects, and especially those of the third and fourth ranks or above, you will be out of the box."
Mo Hua nodded, this is indeed.
The spiritual roots of some aristocratic families and sect disciples are indeed much better than him.
"Do you know the inheritance of spiritual roots?" Mr. Zhuang asked.
"Yes." Mo Hua nodded.
He heard An Xiaofu say that couples have different spiritual roots, and the spiritual roots and grades of giving birth to children are regular, which is the inheritance of spiritual roots.
Mr. Zhuang said: "More than 20,000 years ago, the first-grade spiritual roots were indeed extremely rare. Even the upper-grade and lower-grade spiritual roots would be highly valued and cultivated vigorously..."
"But since some aristocratic families discovered that the spiritual roots are heritable and that this inheritance is controllable, all aristocratic families and sects have followed this principle and married the children of the family."
"It is precisely because of this that today, in all larger sects, there are many high-grade spiritual roots, and the upper and lower levels are no longer rare spiritual roots."
Mr. Zhuang silently glanced at Mohua again, without saying a word.
The top-grade and the lower-grade level are not rare spiritual roots, let alone the middle-grade and lower-grade level of ink painting?
The middle-grade and lower-grade level are more than the top-grade level, but there are still three thresholds.
Mr. Zhuang was very considerate and didn't say it out.
But Mo Hua understood what Mr. Zhuang meant, and couldn't help but hang his head and sighed.
Before Mr. Zhuang finished speaking, he said:
"This is just compared to ordinary disciples of the aristocratic sects. If you compare with the pride of heaven among them, you will be even bigger."
"If you don't say it far away, just like Zisheng and Zixi, your talent in your physical body and spiritual roots is different from them."
"Is the gap really that big?" Mo Hua asked quietly.
Mr. Zhuang hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth, "The gap is not really that big, it is actually bigger than what I said..."
Ink painting was shocked.
He didn't know that Zisheng and Zixi's talent was so high?
Or is his talent so low?
Mo Hua thought of Mr. Zhuang’s previous statements about “the way of heaven” and “spiritual consciousness” and said:
"Then do I major in spiritual consciousness?"
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said, "Yes, since the physical body and spiritual roots are not as good as others, then you can't compare with each other. You compare your spiritual consciousness."
"Your physical body and spiritual roots are weaker than you think, but your spiritual consciousness is actually stronger than you think."
Mr. Zhuang looked at the ink painting and said silently in his heart: "It is even possible that it will be much better than what I thought..."
Mo Hua didn't know what Mr. Zhuang was thinking, but he was still a little confused about his own physical body and spiritual roots, and asked:
"Can my physical body and spiritual root problems be improved?"
Mr. Zhuang shook his head slightly and said:
"Weakness is a congenital problem. It can be improved, but no matter how much it improves, it cannot be changed. At most, after improvement, the body will not be that weak, but it will not be much stronger. It is incomparable to monks who are born to refine their bodies and roots and bones."
"The spiritual root is even more destined to be born with. What kind of spiritual roots will be born in that life? It cannot be changed. This is worse than others, and that is worse than others, and there is no other good way."
"So, you can focus on whatever you are strong, and you can play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses. Is that true?" Mo Hua said.
Mr. Zhuang nodded, "Divine consciousness, spiritual power and physical body are the foundation of the cultivator's practice. Both of them are indispensable. However, the heavenly way is harsh and human talent is limited, so it is impossible to cover everything. Cultivating the Tao does not require you to be better than others in everything. It is better if you can practice the same thing to the depth."
Mo Hua nodded, feeling her thoughts suddenly clear, and then she said curiously:
"Is there anyone who is well-rounded?"
Mr. Zhuang was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Yes, but there are very few such talented people who are against the will of heaven. Looking at the entire world of Taoism, it is also a peerless talent that has never been seen in a thousand years!"
Mo Hua is a little envious, but I will just forget it if I think about it.
You don’t need to think about it. If you practice spiritual consciousness, spiritual power and physical body, you need extremely deep inheritance of Taoism, extremely rich spiritual stone resources, and extremely precious spiritual objects in the world to offer them.
Even if he has such a peerless talent, without inheritance and resources, he is just a pearl covered with dust and a waste of qualifications.
You should not be too greedy in life, as it is good for him to cultivate spiritual consciousness.
But if he majors in spiritual consciousness, can he really achieve the great enlightenment? And he seems to have never heard of any monk who majors in spiritual consciousness.
Mo Hua thought for a while and asked, "Sir, are there any other monks who majored in spiritual consciousness?"
"rare."
“How many are there?”
Mr. Zhuang said: "Normal monks will not cultivate spiritual consciousness."
Mo Hua was stunned and was in a complicated mood. So is he a "abnormal" monk...
Mr. Zhuang smiled, "The physical body and spiritual power are obviously strong, the spiritual consciousness is obscure, and the spiritual consciousness is nothing, which is elusive. Except for some formation masters, who must have powerful spiritual consciousness because of the needs of formation, they have to major in spiritual consciousness, so they rarely choose this path."
"That's how..." Mo Hua sighed slightly.
Mr. Zhuang's eyes were slightly condensed, "But you are different. You are weak in nature and have a fair spiritual root. Your spiritual consciousness is almost your only strength, and it is too strong..."
"Since that's the case, then you will cultivate your spiritual consciousness to the extreme, so that other monks can't reach or even be afraid..."
Mr. Zhuang looked at the small ink painting and said with a deep look:
"As long as you cultivate your spiritual consciousness strong enough, one day you can realize the Tao and rely on your supreme spiritual consciousness to see the true meaning of the great way!"
