Chapter 44: Discussion on the Inefficiency of Meditation
Lobel is someone that Fang Tian feels he can take seriously.
This is a somewhat cold-hearted person, who is poor at speaking, or too lazy to spend time on this thing. Therefore, when he and Fang Tian talk, if there are only two of them, there will often be an awkward moment.
Sometimes no one spoke for more than ten minutes.
However, it is one thing to be quiet, and it is another thing to have a significant communication effect. In the words of Fang Tian's previous life, the two of them were going back and forth, and what they said was all practical information, and there was almost no nonsense.
Fang Tian liked this kind of communication very much.
After several tentative exchanges, Lobel seemed to regard Fang Tian as a person with whom he could communicate. Therefore, he was quite honest when pointing out some of Fang Tian's questions, and Fang Tian naturally reciprocated the favor and put a lot of his own He told Lobel about his thoughts on meditation and other aspects, and many of his words would make Lobel take a long test, so that the conversation between the two turned into a game of Go, and it was the kind of super slow chess player. Play Go.
Today the two of them discussed the issue of poor state of mind during meditation.
The main achievement of a magician comes from meditation. It can be said that meditation is the cornerstone of a magician's practice. To put it more clearly, meditation is to make money, while other spell casting and the like are just money.
It's fun to throw money at people, but it's not so fun to make money.
This is even more true for magicians.
Being a magician means you must meditate every day.
The state of a person is uncertain. Maybe you accidentally stepped into a gutter when you went out today. Or maybe you were pacing in a comfortable mood with your hands behind your back, and you heard someone behind you calling you stupid, or maybe you just wanted to go out and breathe. Taking a breath of fresh air, I accidentally got involved in a fight...
Things like this will make people feel very bad.
If you are in a bad mood, can your meditation state improve? That's a hell! And even if you don't encounter these unfortunate things, people's mood will sometimes be inexplicably low, and this kind of low mood is very common and common, but it is also very frustrating. Nervous.
The data given by Lobel to Fang Tian is that in the forty-two days of a month, on average, he can only enter a high meditation state for about three days, a good meditation state for about five days, and a general meditation state for about ten days. The remaining twenty-three or four days are completely garbage time, and the effect of meditation is minimal. It is no different from not meditating, and sometimes it even gets worse!
When raising this question, Lobel actually didn't expect Fang Tian to give him a good answer. He just wanted to know what Fang Tian thought and how he dealt with this question.
However, Fang Tian really doesn't have this kind of trouble!
In his previous life, he was forced to meditate by an old man since he was a child. Until later, he meditated continuously for twenty years, but it did not produce any results. It can be said that later on, meditation has completely become a habit for him.
Just like someone is used to smoking, and like someone is used to touching their nose from time to time.
Later, Fang Tian no longer expected any benefits from meditating. With this mentality, how could he feel depressed when meditating? How could he feel depressed?
In this world, meditation is no longer an ineffective behavior. Even if it is effective only one day a month, Fang Tian will be overjoyed. - There is progress!
How can he care about efficiency, inefficiency and ineffectiveness?
For him, whether it is efficient, inefficient, or even ineffective, it is all a kind of beauty.
But this situation is obviously not suitable to tell Lobel. Tell Lobel that he has no meditation invalid period? That is nonsense. Say that he doesn't care about the meditation invalid period and his mental state is extremely stable? - Isn't that a slap in Lobel's face?
But, Fang Tian can really answer Lobel's question.
I believe that many people who have lived on earth in the 21st century can also answer this question.
At this time, the benefits of another civilization came to light. Fang Tian pretended to be a beast in the Brick family, and said to Lobel with a very determined smile that was called a pretentious smile in his previous life:
"Senior, have you ever tried to record the time when meditation was efficient and the time when meditation was inefficient or ineffective?"
"What do you mean?" Lobel's eyes lit up, as if he was inspired and shocked.
"You can record it for two months first, and then we can discuss this issue again." Fang Tian said. There is no need to talk too much when talking to these people, as long as they are given a little hint, they will understand a lot of things.
Lobel left with a rather eager mood. For a moment, Fang Tian finally felt a little lonely as a master.
However, he, a pseudo-master, was destined not to be lonely. Lobel had only left for about five minutes when Sharjah came back, followed by two attendants, holding what Fang Tian wanted in their hands.
After receiving the news that Sharjah was back, little Loli ran over soon, and little Ivy and Dick also followed. However, the number of little guys coming this time was a bit small, only six in total.
This is normal. Most of the time, they don't gather together in a swarm. Instead, they each have their own place to play. Many of them go out after breakfast, go crazy all day long, and only return to the courtyard after dinner.
"Brother Fang Tian, what should we do next?" Little Dick rubbed his hands and asked impatiently.
I heard that Fang Tian wants to make something delicious, and they are really greedy. As for the extent of greed, anyone who has to eat instant noodles three times a day for a month can understand.
Just a dish of steamed pork with rice flour is already a supreme delicacy to them. Now they heard that Brother Fang Tian was going to make something delicious every day, ah, little Ivy, little Dick and the others were so happy that they almost went crazy.
Fang Tian even noticed that even Sharjah's eyes were faintly glowing green.
Could it be that this guy is actually a food lover?
"It's easy, just find a place to set up a small stove." Fang Tian said to Little Dick and also to Sha Jia and others. Because after Little Dick asked, they were all waiting for his answer.
The simplest stove is to place two or three stones separately on the ground and put the pot rack on it. However, since it will be used for a period of time in the future, Fang Tian will not be so simple.
At that moment, Fang Tian asked Little Dick to go find Pierre to discuss building a small kitchen.
But before Little Dick could call him, Pierre came over by himself, followed by several helpers, all of whom were from the regiment but were not suitable to be the main members.
"Fang Tian, I have brought everyone here for you. Just tell me what you want to do."
