Chapter 6 Transmission of the Conch
Surprisingly, in the early morning of the next day, apart from the most basic physical training of two laps of jogging, we did not have the high-intensity training we did yesterday evening. Instead, under the warm light of the morning sun in the east, 31 of us students stood on a plum blossom pile on the west side of the Baihualing base and began to listen to the first class.
The instructor of this class is the third-ranked instructor in the training camp, Lin Qiming.
And the zombie-faced instructor who let us run twenty laps yesterday is the second-ranked Ba Zhigang, a very peculiar surname, it is said that he is a native of the Yi nationality in western Yunnan, and he is a senior instructor of the Baihualing base, with a big name, and has been highly praised and appreciated by the leaders of the General Administration.
Lin Qiming is a gentle character, without the hysterical shouting and ridicule of Ba Zhigang, nor the indifference of Huiming. He has the demeanor of a famous teacher like a university professor, so that every student standing on the plum blossom pile with a maximum of 2 meters and a minimum of 0.8 meters is like a spring breeze. This plum blossom pile has nearly 100 square meters of space, high and low, he let us use the most comfortable posture, stay on this sea bowl thickness of the wooden pile.
Lin Qiming walked slowly under us and began to explain to us the most important "qi" (qi) in Taoist culture.
What is "Qi", it is a metaphysical mysterious energy that constitutes the fundamental substance of the human body and the universe.
Each of us lives in this world, both as an individual and as a whole interconnected with the outside of this world. Qi travels in the body, which constitutes the most basic energy of the human body and life-sustaining activities; Qi travels through mountains, rivers, and people, which is the stream of consciousness, a state of magnetic field. Taoists believe that there is an endless flow of energy in the universe, which exists in qigong, breathing, channeling, and meditation, and that the interaction between action and consciousness allows practitioners to generate a force beyond the scope of human cognition, and to harness the mystical energy of the universe.
Not only Taoism, but every school and religion has similar sayings, or consciousness, or divine power, or mysterious things.
How to guide or harness this ubiquitous energy, countless great wisdom people in the past have already excavated countless methods in observing, copying, epiphany, and thinking; Everyone here has their own heritage, and they also have their own fixed routines and trajectories, so they don't explain them in detail, so as not to interfere too much—this is the Tao, this is the Fa, and this is where your strong foundation lies.
Qi is everywhere, but it is unpredictable: some people can feel the energy in the space, and their vision is as wide as the sea; Some people can only feel the changes in themselves, and all their perceptions become narrow and abrupt.
Taoism describes Qi as congenital, and it is said in the "Su Wen Liuyuan Zhengji Treatise": "Where the sun is the government of the heavens, the gasification runs initately", which represents the source of all life and things; The description of qi as the day after tomorrow is the mundane things that have experienced the time of heaven and should be cleansed, and it is difficult to achieve great achievements if they are no longer clear...... How to describe the Qi in the space? It is different from nitrogen and oxygen in our cognition, it is not matter, it does not even have the so-called proton neutron, it may be electron, or it is a kind of pure energy dark matter, like spirit, and willpower.
After talking about these obscure and boring things, Lin Qiming raised his head and asked a thin man sitting tall, "Zhao Xingrui, talk about the scene when you felt Qi for the first time." ”
Zhao Xingrui, who had his hair in a bun, shook up, and seemed to be a little surprised that Lin Qiming saw at a glance that he had reached the congenital level, but his mood quickly stabilized, closed his eyes and recalled, and then began to tell at a slow pace: "It was late autumn when the night rain beat the plantains, and I was meditating in a cave in the rock wall under the Tsing Yi River Estuary and the Leshan Giant Buddha. I have been walking in the three provinces of Sichuan, Tibet and Qingdao for almost a year, and then I have been waiting there for a week, and then, suddenly, I feel as if the shoots are sticking out of the soil, the chicks are pecking at the eggshells, and the dark earth is shining with the morning sun...... Indescribable, I felt as if I had 'seen' a beautiful place, not in space or in time, but between thoughts, very quickly, fleetingly! ”
"It's not spatial, it's not temporal...... Could it be that you have seen another dimension of the universe? "My golden rooster stood alone on the stake, muttering to himself. Recalling that I was on the car back from Xiangxi Phoenix, I felt the field of Qi, why was it not so magnificent and complicated?
"Not bad!"
Lin Qiming said loudly: "Many people, when they begin to truly feel this world world with their minds, will feel the narrowness of this space and the greatness of the outside world at the moment of awakening, and have a feeling of rebirth. This is a more refreshing pleasure than people's primitive desires, and it also makes us realize that the wonderful heaven and earth, the universe is colorful and orderly, and we may not be alone, but we are not safe. Chief Instructor Jia once said this, but I still want to mention it to you - more and more people with the Tao have begun to speculate about an inexplicable catastrophe, which is not only aimed at us, but all mankind, and all life on the entire earth! ”
Lin Qiming looked at us with stern eyes, which made me feel like I was looking up at him: "So, everyone, work hard, maybe one day, we will fight for all mankind - this is not an American blockbuster, but the fact that it is coming, it may be in a few years, maybe in a few decades, maybe tomorrow!" ”
After saying these words, Lin Qiming began to explain in a subdued voice: "Calm your mind, concentrate your mind, control your breathing, deep, thin, and slow, your tongue against the palate, swallow the resulting fluid into your throat, and start your luck according to your own habits...... The universe, the space, the grasslands that rise and fall, the endless green fields, and the quiet and distant deep sea and blue land, everything in the world is in your heart and mine, and in our eyes......"
Lin Qiming is a good lecturer, good at grasping everyone's emotions, and he begins to speak in our ears some irrelevant words, or descriptions of certain scenes, or some simple and true truths in life, or a short passage of Buddhist or Taoist scriptures, or even muttering words that no one understands.
But all of this brings us into a state of inner tranquility.
He uses words to describe the essence of this world: a point that can be projected in the infinite dimension of space, putting aside the complex and obscure theory of the 26th or 11th string in physics, and using religion and our own state of experience to convey something mysterious and mysterious, reaching our hearts—there are people outside of man, and there are heavens outside of heaven.
The world is so complicated, and it's so simple.
I can't express how wonderful Lin Qiming's class was, and people who haven't experienced it can't feel that atmosphere. Of course, it is not that Lin Qiming is so powerful, what he expresses should be the level of theoretical research as a whole as the Religious Affairs Bureau, not his level of comprehension as an individual. Every word of his sentence is profound, telling the true meaning of the relationship between heaven and earth, people and nature, the direction and future of the spiritual path, and many things that I have never considered or noticed.
Realm, this is the realm, the realm of being a human being, the realm of cultivation!
On the first day of the intensive training, there was almost no physical practice, and we sat or stood on the plum blossom stake under the scorching sun, or stood upside down, or stood upside down, and stayed for a day, but we got spiritual sublimation. Because we came from different places, Lin Qiming didn't give us too many instructions on the methods in the cultivation of luck, but he gave us an unattainable realm and thoughts, and sowed a seed.
I was so happy that I finally understood why the elder brother had gone to great lengths to get me here.
Maybe Lin Qiming and I will be common on weekdays, but the sharing of this information and realm needs to be transmitted through this form - I saw Lin Qiming's waist, hanging a beautifully carved conch, and it is the faint yellow light emitted by this conch that makes his image in our hearts extremely majestic and convincing, and when the sun sets, the conch begins to become dim, and all the strange fluctuations on it disappear, not at all, just like a handicraft.
Later, Lin Qiming told me that this conch is made of the Astraya prehistoric conch excavated from the Himalayan fault layer, which was carefully made by the eminent monks of the Potala Palace.
It's a pity that there are only three pieces of this toy in the entire Religious Bureau, and each one is unique, and it will be lost after use, and it cannot be renewed.
I'm a little curious, why didn't Huiming come in person for such a precious opportunity?
He shook his head and smiled, saying that one was that Master Huiming was clumsy in words, and the other was ...... His heart is not at peace.
Is it because of me that my heart is not at peace?
However, I regret that the next day's intensive training did not have this kind of mysterious teaching, the truth is still there, and the realm is completely absent. Moreover, the art of Dao witchcraft is originally a secret that is not transmitted, and many mysteries are mysterious, and they are things that need to be experienced by oneself, so I didn't mention it too much.
We began to usher in the real training camp - weight-bearing long-distance running, armed crossing, combat training, live ammunition training and teamwork and other projects, which took up most of our time, sweat is volatilizing, the body is boiling, and the reaction is gradually rising, and five days later, the training camp began the first competition, and the object of the competition is the Red Dragon Special Squadron under the General Staff of the same camp.
