Chapter 460 Wei and Jin Metaphysics that No Longer Happens
Li Su Guanxing talked about the truth until midnight before returning to Miaozhen Palace to rest, and Zhuge Liang slept on the observatory by himself.
Listening to Li Su and Zhuge Liang's argument, Liu Miao has benefited a lot and has gained a new understanding of many things.
After all, she was a person who was determined to practice and seek immortality, but after studying for more than a year, she found that this god did not exist, that immortal did not exist, which did have a great blow to understanding and more reconstructions.
After returning to Miaozhen Palace, she originally planned to give Li Su the room next to her boudoir, but the palace maids around her had already tactfully retreated to the outside and entered the room twice. Even the third main hall was gone, and it seemed that they were creating opportunities for her.
But Li Su just drank another cup of tea, and after making some words, she said tactfully: "Zhujing has been in his spare time for more than a month. I may have to travel to Xiliang with Aliang next month. My wife and daughter can only stay at home, so I took them out to relax today. It was inconvenient for her, so she only climbed two hundred feet in the morning and then rested."
Liu Miao was slightly shocked, and immediately put away the ambiguous and intimate smell. She smiled calmly and understood Li Su's meaning: A gentleman is cautious in his own self, and does not deceive the dark room.
To be honest, there is a girl who is tied to you, and she has been in love for several years. There are some areas where they have a common language to talk about, but it is impossible to have no feelings. But Li Su has his own principles of dealing with the world. A person with a sense of intellectual superiority can allow romance, but he will definitely not allow confusing and obsessed.
If he really felt it, it would be OK to go all the way. But everything today was indeed unexpected. If he really wanted to do something, why should he bring his wife and throw it on the road? Didn’t that hurt two women at the same time, causing unnecessary unnecessary damage.
Therefore, I am destined to be unwilling to happen this time.
This mentality is difficult for ordinary people to understand, but the superiors who have a sense of control over life are familiar with it. It is somewhat similar to a workplace film played by Gao Yuanyuan by Li Su in the later generations. The character who played the boss Gao Yuanyuan in the movie has a clear statement:
Does the woman I like XXX still have to steal? (That man seems to have played Zhu Di)
Li Su is the same. Although they will never have any results in their lives because of Liu Miao's identity, if they really get to that atmosphere, at least stealing is unnecessary.
If you don’t steal, it doesn’t mean you will tell the world, or even proclaim lust in the daytime. You can just not steal and deal with it naturally.
When Liu Miao heard Li Su mention today's situation, she knew what he was thinking, so she didn't tease her deeply. She just took a few cushions and let Li Su take her own sluts, sleep when she likes, chat whenever she wants to talk, and do whatever she wants while lying down and leaning on her cushion, so she doesn't have to be restrained.
The random thoughts of men and women have temporarily removed. After all, Liu Miao has been practicing for more than a year. She quickly entered a state of sincere discussion and talked about her experience with Li Su.
"Since the past two years, I have followed you back to Chang'an, and watched Aliang abolish all the celestial phenomena and human affairs. Now myths and legends have been shattered. At first, I was quite empty and felt really stupid. I had cultivated loneliness. Anyway, the immortals must not exist anymore.
Fortunately, I was confused for more than half a year. Later, I calmed down and thought, even if the gods did not exist, there was still something to cultivate. I heard your and A Liang’s questions tonight, and this feeling became even more obvious.”
After hearing this, Li Su was not a curiosity, but was a little relieved: What kind of change is this? Is it because he had too much contact with him that he also influenced a person who wanted to escape from the world and cultivate immortals to become a person who did related knowledge?
Li Su found that he still had magic in this area, which easily induces people around him to learn. Whether it is Cai Yan, Liu Miao or Zhuge Liang, these three people have different directions of hard work. Of course, not only these three people, but also many people are influenced by Li Su to learn, but the degree is lighter.
Cai Yan is addicted to literary and historical interpretations, uses Li Su's theory to explain historical events against the past, and restructures political philosophy, "in view of the past, it is of great resource for governance."
Zhuge Liang was addicted to pursuing the laws of nature, and he may gradually become addicted to pursuing the laws of society as he gets older.
What Liu Miao learned was useless, as if he was just thinking about "what theology can be left after stripping away the falsehood of myths and secrets, or even peeling off another layer of it, what philosophy can be left."
While Li Su was summarizing the differences between the three of them, he heard Liu Miao take the initiative to ask for advice: "In the past year, I have read the classics related to my predecessors, from Daomo to "Shan Hai Jing" and folk legends.
Although many things in this are criticized by you and A Liang as false and faked, the principles can still be used to cultivate oneself. The Taoist Kunpeng Immortals and Gods are fake, but natural Wuyu is real. However, in the pre-Qin period, it was difficult to summarize these natural principles, so they accompanied the fantasies and related to their system. As for modern times, thieves such as Zhang Jiao and Zhang Lu used Taoist names and randomly stalked them, resulting in a decline.
What the Buddha said about the gods and Buddhas, the Sumeru world, are false and forged as you say today. However, the pure suffering, no desire, no suffering is true. Many stories are just for the sake of fools and blind people to understand. In this year, I have also borrowed a lot of scriptures preserved by Zeissk from the White Horse Temple in Luoyang to Jiangzhou."
In the Han Dynasty, the status of Buddhism was still relatively sensitive. Although Emperor Ming of Han ordered the construction of White Horse Temple in the tenth year of Yongping, in the past century, there was almost only Buddhism but no Buddhism spread in the past century. White Horse Temple was like a library, storing scriptures from the poison of the body in Luoyang, and only for those great scholars who were studying in Luoyang to refer to it.
Of course, these books will not be included in Lantai. However, Cai Yong, a man who snatched things before the Dong Zhuo Rebellion, was relatively eclectic and wanted everything, so he also snatched everything from Baima Temple to Jiangzhou.
Of course, Li Su would not go to see these things, and according to the original history, no one would go to see them. After the inventory of Baima Temple was burned, it was only when Kumarajiva of the Eastern Jin Dynasty that there was such a comprehensive spread of the Buddhist scriptures in the east. In the past two hundred years, it was copied by the folk in the past two hundred years, and it was not systematic at all.
So Liu Miao has actually entered the deep waters of history when studying these things, similar to a "Three Kingdoms IF script".
Li Su couldn't help but wonder what philosophical knowledge he had developed when he was unintentionally planting willows: "Oh? I'd like to hear it carefully? What did you see."
Liu Miao frowned and thought for a moment, organized a language and said, "For example, remove all the six realms of reincarnation, cause and effect, and supernatural powers, at least the "desire for suffering" is true.
For example, during the reign of Emperor Huan, the "Da'an Paladin Sutra" translated by the monk An Shigao of An, a resting monk, only taught people to breathe and breathe to seek the method of entering into meditation and purity, and the supernatural powers in it are all false, but the retelling of the source of suffering has been explained very clearly.
The reason why Sakyamuni felt that suffering comes from "insufficient", and that "suffering" is eternal. Because he was born as a human being, those who had no desires died - if he didn't like food, he would starve to death, and he would not like sex, and he would end in his generation. Even if there is no immortal in this world, as long as he regards death or death as an immortal, the truth is still valid.
After thousands of generations of people, those who can reproduce are all desires, and the way of heaven will definitely make people dissatisfied with desires and not enough. No matter how much you eat your appetite, you will still feel that the essence of the meat is not good enough, and you should eat better.
The desire for appearance is like my father back then. No matter how many beauties there are in the harem, he can no longer be satisfied after getting used to it. Is my mother really not as beautiful as Wang Meiren? No, Wang Meiren’s body is bloated and fat, but because her father is tired of her mother.
Those rich people who seek wealth are very happy when they earn money for the first time. They think money can bring blessings, but after half a year of making money for the month, they become numb and have to get a little joy after two dots of the month. So it is not money that makes them happy, but the speed of making money makes them happy. Even if they make money every day, as long as they keep it steady and don’t accelerate, they will still be dissatisfied and never end up.
God wants to inspire people to move forward and to reproduce, and nature will not be satisfied for a long time after one satisfaction. Once a person is numb and has no time to calm down and think, his brain can always deceive them to pursue short-term happiness, for fear that his brain will figure it out.
Because as long as a person figures out how hard he tries, he is happy, it is short-lived. You have to become more and more effective to maintain happiness. Then you will give up happiness and doubt life like those who practice Taoism.”
"Stop and stop - stop." Li Su felt that his mind was a little confused. If he hadn't known that Liu Miao was definitely not a time traveler, he would have suspected that Liu Miao was using Darwin's theory of evolution to explain the "pain". He asked a little girl to practice on the mountain with a bunch of miscellaneous studies that had been crushed for more than a year. The random thoughts that she had produced were really amazing.
However, I always feel that this direction is not harmful.
Perhaps, this is a philosophical part left after the six realms of reincarnation of the gods and monsters of "Taoism" and "Buddhism" collapsed, and it may be called "Taoism" or "Buddhism".
Li Su did not want to interfere with the people's beliefs, but he also knew that because he led Zhuge Liang to advocate the development of science, those superstitious things would definitely be impacted. Even if he didn't care about anything, the subsequent natural development would not be exactly the same as the original history.
Extracting the philosophical part seems to be the best way to preserve the valuable part of traditional culture.
Liu Miao didn't know how chaotic Li Su's thoughts were, and asked humbly: "What's wrong with what I said? If you are young and have a shallow understanding, just point it out."
Li Su commented casually and encouraged: "Uh... nothing wrong, it's just that the conclusion is a little faster. Maybe you can confirm it more and don't rush to draw conclusions. But it's not surprising that you have such a view.
Gautama Siddhartha was also a prince. He was used to the top enjoyment of food, sex, and clothing. When he turned around and suffered, he realized that desire could not permanently solve the suffering. You are also in the Tao. It is normal for you to think of this aspect first."
Li Su was not very good at this, so he led to Liu Miao's change of topic. As a result, Liu Miao used the other parts of An Shigao's "The Great Anpan Sutra" that she studied most deeply, and mixed them with the "Tao Te Ching", which made Li Su very impressed.
After listening for a long time, I only understood that the original meaning of the "Da'an'an'an Sutra" is just a sutra similar to teaching people to "mediate and meditate" (the word "Shouyi" means meditation, that is, to focus, control your own thinking and be wandering around by random thoughts)
Although Li Su is not interested in these things, at least later generations know that many people in Silicon Valley are studying half-hearted meditation and can barely make a few words. In the end, Liu Miao let him understand.
"It's hard to keep your brain empty, because if you don't think about anything, all kinds of random thoughts will flow into your brain. So beginners can only focus on counting their own breaths and prevent their brain from thinking about anything else by thinking about it.
You have to practice for a long time before you can slowly overcome the habit of counting breaths silently, and do not think about anything else after counting breaths. Finally, let all thoughts have equal opportunities to pour into your brain, and you won’t think about what you usually pay attention to.”
Li Su just thought it was just listening to the girl's urge to get upset about a few meditation tutorials.
Seeing that he was indifferent and had no interest, Liu Miao changed the topic and studied the idea of "why myths were made up like that in the beginning" with Li Su.
Li Su could make some talk on this topic, so he forced himself to keep sitting upright on the cushion and chatting with the girl. The girl mentioned the "Kao of the Great River Zhengyuan" written by Li Su, and also mentioned the "Shangshu Yu Gong" and "Shan Hai Jing" she had read over the past year, and selected a few points to figure it out:
"In the pre-Qin period, people in the world said that "Gonggong's anger attacked Buzhou Mountain". But now, according to Brother Dao, Buzhou Mountain is just the source of Zhou water, not the source of Kunlun Rivers. There are also sun, moon, stars in the west, not the end of the sky.
Therefore, Gonggong's anger hits Buzhou Mountain, but the ancients could not explain that the sky is low in the west and high in the east, the earth is high in the west and low in the east, the sun, moon and stars travel west, and rivers, lakes and seas return east. I read some myths in the classics of the poisonous people. They are the world and the world are low in the west and high in the east, so they cannot evolve into Gonggong's anger hits Buzhou Mountain.
I even suspect that in ancient times, perhaps our Chinese people had a separate set of arguments at the beginning to explain that the sky was low in the west and the east was high, and then another set of arguments explained that the earth was high in the west and the east was low. However, that statement can only be explained in one thing, and it is not enough to be integrated.
But as you said, rumors have been spread for thousands of years, and in addition, there was no paper printing in ancient times, only bamboo slips were copied, so when they were copied, they became more and more concise, removing the drought and retaining the essence, and simplifying the complexity, naturally evolved a set of things that could explain the most natural phenomena with the least amount of hypothesis of gods and immortals.
The more ancient myths are, the more mistakes and miscellaneous they are. The more modern the world, the more fake they are. The so-called ancient ghosts and gods are not what the ancients said at the beginning. They are all optimized and co-created by generations of legends over thousands of years."
Of course there are many such examples. Liu Miaoguang can find many examples of conspiracy against the ancients from the books she read.
Li Su was also able to interfere. After all, he knew that the myths of various countries in the world were all intended to explain what natural phenomena and how they evolved over thousands of years.
For example, because the Egyptians lived in the desert, their gods must first have "dry gods" and "moisturizing gods" under the main gods, and then they will be given the God of Heaven and Earth, which is unique for the sake of environmental explanation.
Various civilizations also need to explain the tragedy of God not dying but man must die. Japan needs to make Izanagi and Izanamei turn against each other. Persians need a dualism of good and evil. The Greeks have a longer period of cold winter than other southern civilizations, so they have to create the tragedy of the tragedy of the underworld Polesepone in the mythological genealogy that has been borrowed from.
In order to explain the imperfection in the world, God must die. The result is first, and then someone will fabricate the cause to relieve people's fear of the result.
Li Su doesn't need to study the philosophical logic and motivations here, even if he just beat Kui Ye on PS in his previous life.
So he took some examples with a little bit of information, posing the "how the Western Regions people fabricated them" he had seen, which confirmed Liu Miao's speculation and made Liu Miao feel frustrated.
It turned out that she hid on Mount Hua and was in seclusion for more than a year and watched the gods, ghosts, monsters, Buddhas and Taoism. Many people have seen through the messy discoveries she thought of. At least Brother Li did not study them and was slight.
Liu Miao was silent for a long time: "I also want to write a book that strips those false supernatural things and exposes these supernatural powers to the original plan. Then, extract the real things in the Buddhist path, and not use the supernatural powers to scare the foolish people, they can also persuade people to become enlightened. At worst, I will give up those foolish people and only save philosophers."
Li Su: "I have a good idea. I support you, but don't bother me, it's almost dawn."
