Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is 352 B.C.

This year! Wei Ying, because of his meritorious work in changing the law, changed the face of the Qin State, made the Qin State strong, and was named the Great Liang Creation by Qin Xiaogong. When he met Zhuang Zhou and Yang Zhu, he was not really a left-hand chief, which was equivalent to a trial, and Qin Xiaogong had not officially accepted him.

This year! Zhuang Zhou is eighteen years old and has grown into an adult. He is of medium build, with a square face and slightly prominent cheekbones, giving him a feeling of emaciation.

Yang Zhu's black hair was no longer there, it had become a full head of white hair, and his beard was also white. The flesh on his body was almost gone, and only skin and sinew remained. But! He's still in the same spirit. Even! More spiritual than before.

This year, Yang Zhu successfully retreated and finally succeeded in entering the realm of the heart.

Heart! That is, the world that does not die! The world of immortality!

The premise for Taoism to enter the realm of the mind is to look inward! Through cultivating inner vision and through his own efforts, Yang Zhu finally succeeded in entering the heart realm.

Now Yang Zhu wants to sort out his own cultivation experience, Master Yin Xi's cultivation experience, and the cultivation experience of the ancestor Lao Tzu and pass it on to Zhuang Zhou. Not just to teach Zhuang Zhou, but! It is also necessary for Zhuang Zhou to truly understand the theory of how to cultivate in order to succeed, so that he can safely soar and enter the mental realm.

Otherwise? How do you call a closed disciple? What about the heirs?

As a Taoist monk, where do you need others to serve? It's not like the legend that Zhuang Zhou is a closed disciple to ask Zhuang Zhou to send him to the end. That's not what it means! But! I want my heirs to inherit the mantle as soon as possible.

Originally! As a disciple of Yin Xi and the third-generation inheritor of Taoist doctrine, he could enter the mental realm decades ahead of schedule and reach the legendary realm of immortality. Unfortunately! Born in troubled times, people can't be themselves. Ever since he was ordered by his master to travel around the world to preach, he had hardly ever received peace and had no chance to retreat and cultivate. So! He almost died before he could enter the Mind Realm.

In fact! There is also a way to enter the mental realm and achieve the state of immortality. That's the lead! Someone needs to pick it up!

But? This method is not used by people!

It is only when a person dies due to a sudden change that the Master or a well-wisher will lead you to the state of mind.

Other words! Even if Yang Zhu was not able to enter the Heart Realm through his own efforts and was killed in the process of preaching, his master Yin Xi or the Ancestor Lao Tzu would also lead him into the Heart Realm.

It's just that! No one wants to see such a result!

The best way to enter the Mind Realm is to cultivate through your own efforts!

Yang Zhu sat cross-legged on the wooden bed, his eyes slightly closed. Through inward vision, everything in front of him was as if he had opened his eyes and saw it.

Zhuang Zhou sat cross-legged on the floor under the wooden bed, his eyes slightly closed, facing him.

He is convinced of Zhuang Zhou's ability to understand. But in order to let Zhuang Zhou enter the heart realm as soon as possible and understand the way to enter the heart realm, he got tired of it.

"Can you give me another understanding? What is called Tao is Tao, very Tao; Famous, unfamous? ”

Zhuang Zhou took a deep breath, opened his eyes, glanced at Master, and prepared to answer Master's question.

Ever since Master entered the Heart Realm, Master has never spoken a word to him. It was completely transmitted to his heart through the transmission of the heart. There was a picture in his mind that Master had said to him like that. But! He couldn't express himself to the Master in this way, he could only express it in words.

Only those who have entered the realm of the mind can communicate with each other in that way.

He coughed softly, a little pretentiously. said: "Tao is Tao, very Tao; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. None, the beginning of the world; Yes, the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always nothing, and I want to see its wonders; Often, I want to see it. These two are the same and have different names. The same is called the mystery, the mystery and the mystery, the door of all wonders.

This is the first part of the Tao Sutra, explaining what is the Tao? Explain what is there and what is not!

All things come from being, and some come from nothing!

The Tao is the Tao, the very Tao, and it is the preaching. To say that the Word is worth preaching, and to focus on it, we must first make the Word clear. This is called 'Tao can be Tao, very Tao'.

The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. It's a name! The origin of the name Tao.

The name Tao does not refer to the Tao in general, it does not refer to the Tao of the "road" we take!

The name Tao is the name given to it by the ancestor Lao Tzu.

Why the name "Tao"? The first patriarch Lao Tzu felt that it was like the road we walked, endless! There is no end, and it is impossible to find where its source is.

This is: the Tao is the Tao, the very Tao; The name is famous, and the name is not very famous. The first is the Word, and the second is the origin of the name. ”

"Hmm!" Yang Zhu snorted with satisfaction.

In Zhuang Zhou's mind, the message of Master's "um" suddenly came. The Master also gave him affirmation through the transmission of the heart realm.

"Next! The ancestor Lao Tzu talked about 'being' and 'nothing'! ”

Zhuang Zhou continued: "What do you mean to have? What does it mean to have nothing? ”

The Tao is a real thing! What we see, it is the Word. That's what there is! What is actually there and what is visible is the Tao.

Yes is the Way! The Tao is there!

Therefore, all things are born of being!

But the Tao Sutra also says that there is birth from nothing!

So? What is none?

How is it possible to be born out of nothing?

Not! What hasn't appeared yet, it's nothing!

What doesn't exist yet, it's nothing!

For example, the house we live in. There was no house at all before it was built, so! The house is nothing before it is built! No is nothing!

So! What hasn't appeared yet is nothing! There is something that appears. When the house is built, it becomes there.

This is the Taoist Sutra "out of nothing!" ”

Take, for example, wheels. The wheels simply didn't have wheels before they were built. So! The wheels are nothing until they are built!

So! What hasn't appeared yet is nothing! What appeared is there. When the wheels are built, it becomes there.

This is the Taoist Sutra "out of nothing!" ”

For example, children. Before the man and the woman are united, there are no children at all. So! Children are nothing before the man and the woman are united!

So! What hasn't appeared yet is nothing! What appeared is there. When a man and a woman are united and have a child, the child becomes a child.

This is the Taoist Sutra "out of nothing!" ”

Originally! The starry sky of the universe, the sun, the moon and the earth, and all things on the earth, including human beings, are nothing, they are nothing. Afterward! After countless changes, it has become the cosmic starry sky, the sun, the moon and the earth, and everything on the earth, including human beings.

That primordial substance that changes endlessly is the Tao.

We are also the Tao! Everything that we see and what we do not see before us is also the Word.

What will our Word look like in the future? Nobody knows. Just like the starry sky of the universe, the sun, the moon and the earth, all things on the earth, including human beings, are changed from what happened in the beginning, no one knows.

But! We can see that the Word is constantly changing! Always changing, always changing!

Out of nothing, all things are born out of nothing, some are born out of nothing, and so on!

Therefore, it is said that nothing is "the beginning of heaven and earth"; Yes, for the "mother of all things." ”

Therefore, there is always nothing, and I want to see its wonders; Often, I want to see it.

So! Through the change of nothingness, we can understand what the Tao is.

These two are the same and have different names.

"Both" means nothing. Nothing and existence come from the Tao, but the names are different, one is called nothing, and the other is called being!

The same is called the mystery, the mystery and the mystery, the door of all wonders.

This sentence is to say, nothing is very laborious and mysterious to explain. Even! The more you explain it, the more subtle it becomes, and the explanation is not clear. Actual! As long as you understand what is meant by being and what is not, you have to understand what is called Tao.
