Chapter 366 Changes in Mood

Hearing Zen Master Kaiwen talk about the origin of this strange stone Buddha sculpture, Li Qi felt a headache.

Theoretically speaking, it would be held in the palm of Mahakala's hand, which means that the demon blood in it should have been completely subdued. Otherwise, would Mahakala have the guts to drink it?

The blood of the four demons in his hand should have nothing to do with the other demons after it drips out.

In other words...this was actually arranged by Mahakala?

It’s hard to say that Li Qi has no grievances against Mahakala. He is just a Zen wise monk. To Mahakala, existence or non-existence does not matter. There is no need to specifically plot against Li Qi because of this, right?

Moreover, Zen Master Kaiwen also said that this was not just Mahakala. In fact, Mahakala didn't care about this strange stone Buddha sculpture at all. It was Dajinitian who put it away.

Now, who knows how long after this stone was put away, Genius Dujini ordered Zen Master Kaiwen to send this stone to Baiyelai...

Tujini Tian is also a great Buddhist master. Did the incident happen because of Tujini Tian?

confusing.

To be honest, Li Qi couldn't tell the difference at all.

It could be a celestial demon, or it could be the demons of five aggregates, afflictions, and death. It could also be Mahakala or Dajini.

There are not enough clues to judge.

So Li Qi simply gave up the idea. There was no need to look for this, since he couldn't find it anyway.

So, Li Qi raised his head and asked again: "May I ask Zen Master, I have studied this Buddha sculpture before and learned a lot from it. Is this the characteristics of the Buddha sculpture, or is it the result of your deliberate arrangement on it?"

"I found that what I realized was different from what other people realized. It can be seen that this Buddha sculpture does not have only one inheritance. In fact, just a few hours ago, I had realized from this Buddha sculpture

I have found seven or eight different visualization diagrams, and I have also seen other people find the power of the Vajra White Elephant in them. That is not a visualization diagram, which shows that besides visualization diagrams, there are other ways to touch the Buddha sculpture.

What exactly is power here?"

Li Qi's question is quite straightforward, and generally speaking, people would not ask this question.

However, this time Li Qi felt that he could ask more directly. After all, the matter involved demons, and it was easy to be deceived by being vague.

"So the donor is struggling with this. Has the donor ever heard of the five-aggregate demon?" Zen Master Kaiwen asked.

"Of course I know." Li Qi nodded.

As a top scholar, Li Qi has read many, many books and knows more than most people in the world.

He immediately realized that Zen Master Kaiwen was saying that the drop of demon blood was related to the five aggregates of demons.

The so-called five aggregates are the aggregate of form, the aggregate of feeling, the aggregate of perception, the aggregate of formations, and the aggregate of consciousness.

The form aggregate is all forms, the feeling aggregate is all moods, the perception aggregate is all thoughts, the formation aggregate is all motives, and the consciousness aggregate is all cognition.

According to Buddhism, it is the five aggregates that make up the world that people know.

Because Buddhism believes that people cannot see the 'real' world.

Your eyes can see many colors, but are colors the reality of objects?

Obviously not.

You can eat salt and taste the ‘saltness’. So, is the saltiness the essence of salt?

Obviously, no.

People can only use their weak senses and limited perceptions to understand the world. The world that people see is ultimately shallow, one-sided, and false.

How people understand the world is how the world appears to them.

A blind person feels that the world has no light, and a deaf person feels that the world has no sound. It is the same.

The so-called "without worries, all four elements are empty" is such a portrayal.

The five aggregates are the reflection of limited perception on the human mind. People receive information from the outside world and then project it into the five aggregates, and finally understand the world through the five aggregates.

People themselves cannot detect what the real world is like, and can only understand the world one-sidedly through the five aggregates.

Only through enlightenment and Buddhism can we see the nature of the world, allowing people to see the truth even if they don't have the corresponding organs.

This process of pursuit is the process of spiritual practice.

The five-aggregate demon is a demon rooted in the five aggregates of all living beings. It can interfere with people's perception of the outside world and prevent people from understanding the real world.

Wait, in this case——

Li Qi's eyes suddenly widened.

In other words, the five aggregate demons are, to a certain extent, the demons who are good at illusions.

Then, what the demon said is true, and my previous understanding of the demon was wrong.

The Desire Realm is not an illusion, the things in the Desire Realm are real!

If you think that the realm of desire is false, you will fall into the tricks of the devil.

The things created by the five aggregate demons are fake, and they do not have an objective entity.

Objective entity!

Li Qi immediately closed his eyes and thought of something.

At this time, Zen Master Kaiwen said with some sigh: "The donor is really amazing. He can actually understand seven or eight kinds of things. No wonder he can become the Master of Wushen Mountain. Such a talent is really outstanding."

"But -" Zen Master Kaiwen seemed to want to say something more, but he found that Li Qi had closed his eyes, so he suddenly stopped.

Because he found that Li Qi suddenly fell into some kind of thinking state.

Therefore, Zen Master Kaiwen did not disturb him and allowed Li Qi to think.

This is a common thing for immortals.

It is common for immortals to discuss Tao together for decades.

Especially when discussing Taoism with friends of level 5 or above, it is not uncommon for one party to suddenly fall into deep thought and wait seven or eight years before uttering a single word.

But Zen Master Kaiwen was still a little surprised.

What kind of talent is this? Even for Master Wu Shenshan, that’s a bit outrageous, right?

He just said the five aggregates. What on earth did this young man of rank seven think about?

It stands to reason that enlightenment is just an appearance. In essence, it is the accumulation of countless things in the past that can lead to that flash of inspiration. Therefore, no matter what kind of genius, it should be accumulated first, then ignited, and finally sublimated.

If thought is a brilliant fire, then knowledge is the firewood below. No matter how much inspiration you have, you must have enough foundation to support it.

How much foundation can there be in the seventh grade?

His age was clearly discernible in Zen Master Kaiwen's eyes, but he was only in his early thirties.

Even if you spend thirty years studying and accumulating twelve hours a day, how much can you learn?

Compared with those who have been studying for hundreds of years, his background is too shallow and cannot support his epiphanies again and again.

That's why Zen Master Kaiwen was so surprised.

In fact, Li Qi has been under his watch since he arrived at Buddha Mountain.

He saw with his own eyes that this man had an epiphany more than ten hours ago. Just yesterday, he realized many profound methods from the strange stone Buddha sculptures.

And now, he has realized it again?

What kind of qualification is this? Is he a Buddhist?

However, what this monk doesn't know yet is that for Li Qi, the strange stone Buddha sculpture thing is not considered 'enlightenment' at all.

It's nothing more than searching for things based on the existing information.

The so-called "enlightenment" is to deduce something that is not available but is very important to you from the existing information. For example, there is a mathematical conjecture. You first have this conjecture, and then one day, you suddenly realize the answer and change the conjecture.

It became a theorem.

As for piecing together the thirty-two phases, Li Qi did it as a daily routine.

Turning a mathematical conjecture into a mathematical theorem can be regarded as an epiphany.

However, just solving a somewhat difficult math problem is far from being called an enlightenment.

For geniuses, it's that simple.

And the most frightening thing is that it is difficult for a mathematical epiphany to have practical significance, but in the world of personal power, such an epiphany brings a terrifying improvement.

It takes many years of hard work to transform a mathematical formula into a practical mechanical tool. How to transform the principles of the formula into tool production is a huge challenge.

However, in terms of personal power, this process is almost non-existent. Almost all the work is actually done in the brain. As long as the practitioner completes the moment of enlightenment, he can make the principles he has enlightened play a huge role in reality.

The effect is that the instrumental part is omitted.

Therefore, the specific strength improvement of geniuses who can often become enlightened is also quite astonishing.

So Zen Master Kaiwen looked at Li Qi with envy.

He could only attribute Li Qi's repeated promotions to Li Qi's qualifications. After summing up, he sighed... He is indeed the master of Wushen Mountain.

The geniuses who can be ranked alongside the disciples of Buddha, the most elite geniuses in the world, the geniuses who are second to none in all the worlds, are really incomparable to me.

However, this time Li Qi woke up very quickly.
