Chapter 41: Analyzing the Primordial Spirit
The Qi Refining Pills that Jiangdong used to help practice, the Yuan Yang Pills that nourish the soul, and the Ding Shen Pills that He Ye took are all low-level pills, and are elixirs that cultivators take during the Qi Refining Stage. For example, if Xu Bo is in the middle stage of foundation building, it is useless to take these low-level pills and cannot help his cultivation at all. To refine more advanced pills, it requires very rare and precious medicinal materials! The current world has been destroyed by humans, and even if such spiritual medicines are still left, it is not so easy to find. This is also one of the reasons why Xu Bo has stopped his cultivation over the years.
The spiritual energy consumed by Jiangdong's cultivation and the spiritual energy required for Xu Bo to cultivate herbs are large, so the spiritual energy produced by this pool is in short supply. In desperation, Jiangdong had to practice intermittently, read books and listen to Xu Bo's explanations in his spare time. Most of the time is spent nourishing the soul, improving his brain utilization rate, and developing his potential.
The power of the cultivator's soul directly affects the level of cultivation and the speed of cultivation.
So, what is the soul?
The primordial spirit that people who practice cultivation actually refer to human thoughts. The so-called primordial spirit exists in the purple palace, and it is explained by modern science that human thoughts are born from the brain.
Can human thoughts evolve? Can I increase IQ? Can brain utilization rate increase?
Human thoughts are human souls. The formation and disappearance of them have always been a mystery. Contemporary technology is so developed that it cannot explain all its wonderful phenomena. It can only be summarized as an intangible entity! The computer is called a computer, which refers to the human brain. It is similar to the human brain. The energy required by the computer is electricity, and the energy required by the human brain is sugar. They can all be stored and calculated!
After the computer is powered off, it can still save the data stored in the original. So what if the person dies? Can you restart it at will like a computer? Do you still have the previous memories after starting it? Can the computer also produce life and think independently?
These are both problems in Jiangdong and problems for mankind.
Jiangdong was curious about all this and asked Uncle Xu during his practice. Uncle Xu didn't care about Jiangdong's questions and said easily: "Yes!"
Looking at Jiang Dong's surprised expression, Xu Bo smiled and explained: "The soul can only exist in the purple palace to survive. As long as it has energy supply, it can be attached to other things! The hanged ghosts who appeared in your village before were attached to the locust tree! After someone died, shouldn't the souls also exist in the void when they went out to find a new host? In the prosperous era of cultivation, many real people refined various souls with cultivation into their magic weapons to increase their power. This practice is equivalent to giving life to dead objects!"
Although Jiangdong understood a little, more questions followed. First of all, how did the soul come about? Can the soul that re-entered the samsara bring memories of the previous life to the next life? Also, what can he use when the soul is strong to a certain extent? Can the soul really leave the body?
Although Xu Bo was a native of the Qing Dynasty in the former Qing Dynasty, he also knew a lot about modern science: "In terms of the capacity of the brain, only ten to thirty percent can be used by people now, or even less! So what is the remaining seventy or eighty percent used for? Isn't it useful? No! If it is not useful, humans will not evolve such a large brain capacity. Since it has so many, it means that so many have been used before! Just like other organs that have not completely evolved in the human body, they were actually useful before! Since it is useful, there is a way to make it reuse! And it must also make it operate 100%!"
It is hard to imagine how high a person's IQ would be if the brain was fully developed and utilized! Can everyone become or even surpass Einstein and Hawking?
Xu Bo continued: "Real energy is the most suitable for the soul to absorb as energy. The initial generation of the soul was the gathering of spiritual energy, which created spiritual intelligence, thoughts, and finally possessed on living organisms. In ancient times, the abundant spiritual energy was the heyday of cultivation and immortal cultivation. At that time, not only humans, but also various demons, and even some stones also activated spiritual intelligence for cultivation. These alien souls also reincarnated on humans due to the large increase in modern humans and the decrease in various animals. This is also part of the reason for the phenomenon of attainment rebirth, and the result of incomplete changes in the souls of animals in previous lives."
Hearing this, Jiangdong realized something: "Due to the increase of human beings, the expansion of residence, and the large-scale mining of resources, it directly led to the destruction of the ecological balance of nature, resulting in the reduction of the place where spiritual energy was produced, making humans and aliens separated from the original state of cultivation and immortality, and also causing the current loss of cultivation techniques. People no longer believe in these situations where things cannot be explained by science!"
"You can teach me!" Xu Bo nodded with Jiangdong's perception, and then said: "I think that due to the different methods of cultivation, those who practiced were Tao, demons, immortals, monsters, and charms; there were also good and evil, success and failure, those who ascended the public morality, and those who were notorious and demoted! To this day, due to the reduction of spiritual energy, the lack of cultivation methods and the sect of cultivation fell. Now there are only a very few cultivators, but most of them are living in seclusion in quiet places! Therefore, cultivating immortals and cultivating has become a joke for people, and no one really believes in the existence of these things. Even if there is one, it is just a hype."
Jiangdong continued the question just now and asked: "Why can't life be passed down by reincarnation? The memories of the previous life cannot be brought to the next life?"
"When a person's life span is exhausted, the soul loses energy supply, causing the soul to leave his body and wander in the void to find a new host. At this time, the soul has memories of the previous life and some energy, but it will be consumed and dissipated as it floats! After finding a suitable pregnant woman, she will sneak into her body and ambush in the baby's brain, and soon be born with the baby to form a complete life. At this time, the memories of the previous life will disappear with the use of energy during the soul's wandering and boarding. Of course, there will be no memories of the previous life after birth."
Speaking of this, Xu Bo picked up the spiritual tea and took a sip, moistened his throat and continued: "However, there are exceptions. Some people have relatively strong souls. After death, drifting and boarding will not consume too much energy, and memories will not disappear completely! As the newborn grows, the stability and strengthening of the soul will recall the events of the previous life again! There are many such examples, but science cannot explain it."
Speaking of this, Jiangdong suddenly thought of something he had heard before and hurriedly said: "In Tibet, there is a kind of rap artist who inherits the famous Tibetan heroic epic: "The Biography of King Gesar". Among the many rap artists, those excellent artists who can rap often call themselves divine artists, that is, the story they rap was given by God! Most of the rap artists who taught themselves to have dreams in childhood, then fell ill, and received the will of God or King Gesar in their dreams. When they were sick or recovered, they were chanted by the lama and prayed to open the wisdom gate of rap Gesar, and they can rap from now on! I guess this is because he was also a rap artist in his previous life, and he had not exhausted his energy in reincarnation, so that he could recall this life, right?"
In Tibetan areas, there are indeed some teenage children who are illiterate in their teenage years or wake up after they are sick and can rap long epics of millions of words. This mysterious phenomenon is still unexplainable!
"Not all! When King Gesar was in war, many monks helped him achieve hegemony! These monks wrote and sang the "Biography of King Gesar" after King Gesar's death! After their death, the soul that was stronger than ordinary people can maintain the memory of their previous lives, and pass it on new carriers from generation to generation!" Xu Bozhi put down the teacup in his hand, recalled it and continued: "Tibet is a mysterious place, and there are many mystery that science cannot solve! I have experienced it in Tibet in my early years, and it is indeed true that this is true! That rap artist is based on Yuan
The gods are powerful and inherited, but this method is not the only way to preserve memory. There is also a technique called body-taking! It is to realize reincarnation on a living person. When the monk is about to die, he finds his favorite body in advance, and then leaves his soul to swallow the thoughts of the former master, and then occupy the body of others, just like a different person. However, this requires long-term cultivation, at least it can be used in the later stage of foundation building, and the person who is taken over must have a lower cultivation level than his own, otherwise he will be swallowed up!"
When Jiangdong heard Uncle Xu say this, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He didn't know why he felt a sense of erectness. Then this feeling was dispelled by his curiosity and continued, "In this way, many truths can be explained! For example, the ghost on the locust tree in Hejiagou must have been unwilling to be reborn as a human being because of his resentment. There will be a risk of distraction when drifting in the world, so he attached himself to the locust tree and survived by absorbing the yin energy of the locust tree!"
"Yes, the yin energy of the locust tree is the heaviest, so it is most suitable for the lingering souls to rely on. This is also the reason why the feng shui is not allowed to plant locust trees in their own yards. This can be seen from the way of writing the word "春春春" means that the word "春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春春�
Jiangdong held the snow bead in his hand and felt that the object was heavy like a stone. I don’t know what material it was made of, but he had a new question: “What impact will abortion have on the ghosts?”
