348 Awareness and Awakening

A great advantage of getting up early is that you can have a leisurely breakfast.

More than twenty minutes.

Shi Wangyue made coffee and a hearty breakfast.

There are freshly grilled vegetable and egg sandwiches, blueberry waffles, boiled prawns and broccoli, and cut fruit for the table.

In the early morning, the sunshine after the snow falls on it, which is so beautiful that it makes people's index fingers move.

"It's amazing." Ning Youguang praised while taking pictures.

After making breakfast, Shi Wangyue went to the bathroom to take a surprise shower. She was wiping her dripping hair with a towel, "What are you eating for breakfast these days?"

"Sometimes in the cafeteria, sometimes I make it myself." Ning Youguang put down his phone after taking photos.

Shi Wangyue sighed, "Don't you really want a chef on call?"

"What do you want a chef to do? You can't eat it." Ning Youguang raised his eyebrows, "I just have delicious food on call."

She gently tapped the cell phone at hand, "Takeout."

"..."

Shi Wangyue suddenly felt that earning a lot of money was not so good anymore.



After breakfast, Shi Wangyue walked through the snow to go to work.

Ning Youguang planned to read and listen to the lecture while it was still early.

After a while, Zhuang Yijing sent a video, "What are you doing?"

She is putting on makeup.

"Read books and listen to lectures." Ning Youguang put his phone aside.

The two of them were chatting and doing their own thing.

"There are so many books and so much knowledge in the world. It is destined to be endless and endless to learn. What should I do?" Zhuang Yijing asked while wiping his face.

"Why are you afraid of the infinite truth? Every inch you advance brings you joy." Ning Youguang said calmly.

"Okay, okay." Zhuang Yijing patted his face and smiled.

She feels that Ning Youguang has many qualities that she likes and appreciates, but what fascinates her the most is that she never stops searching, responding, and learning...

She never stops evolving and becoming a better person.

Seeing Ning Youguang alone in the dormitory, Zhuang Yijing couldn't help but ask, "Do you feel lonely living alone now?"

Ning Youguang pressed the pause button on the online class he was listening to, "Loneliness is not because there is no one around you. The real reason for feeling lonely is that you are unable to communicate your most important feelings with others."

"It makes sense." Zhuang Yi nodded.

"I didn't say that." Ning Youguang smiled.

"Who said that?"

"Jung."

"Oh, you are a great master." Zhuang Yijing was convinced, "So you mean you won't feel lonely, right?"

"That's right." Ning Youguang said, "I have never felt lonely." In this life.

"But some people say that most people in the world are lonely. Loneliness is hidden in every cell and survives tenaciously." Zhuang Yijing could not understand the state she was talking about. "I often feel quite lonely. I am not alone.

Sometimes, there are many people together, such as some social occasions. The more lively it is, the lonelier it becomes."

"Why?" Ning Youguang asked softly.

Zhuang Yijing stopped what he was doing and thought for a moment, "Maybe it's because I know that everyone is pretending, that they are all masked people, hiding their true selves, so I feel empty and lonely."

"In this case..." Ning Youguang said, "Maybe I am living my life selectively and consciously filtering my social circle and the information I hear, see and think around me.

Keep yourself in a relatively controllable, comfortable and peaceful state."

"You are quite quiet." Zhuang Yijing said with envy, "Sometimes I really envy you that you can always be sober and live your ideal life."

Ning Youguang smiled softly, "Do you know that every sober person grows up in loneliness? Because only when one is lonely and quiet can a person have the opportunity to face and examine his own soul."

"Is that so?" Zhuang Yijing fell into deep thought, "Then it seems that I have to seize the opportunity when I attend social activities in the future. After all, it is a good opportunity to face and examine my own soul."

Ning Youguang smiled and said, "Then you have to raise your awareness."

"What is awareness?" Zhuang Yijing asked.

"Awareness means that you can very clearly see the various thoughts in your brain, such as greedy thoughts, angry thoughts, hateful thoughts, and even various desires, etc. You are just a viewer." Ning Youguang

explain.

"I'm just a viewer?" Zhuang Yijing didn't understand, "How to do this?"

"Let me give you an analogy." Ning Youguang said, "You are walking on the road and see a black cloud floating in the sky. If you look at this black cloud and think, 'Ah, the black cloud is coming.

', 'Is it going to rain?', 'If it's going to rain, I have to run faster', 'Oops! My clothes on the balcony haven't been confiscated yet!', 'What should I do?' and so on, you are not a brain.

Instead of being a viewer of thoughts, you become a thought. But if you see a black cloud and just think, "Oh, black cloud," and then don't think about other related things about the black cloud in your mind, you are just watching.

Or. Think of the thoughts and ideas in your mind as that black cloud that dissipates as soon as you see it - you are not affected by it, you just watch it come and go. If you can remember, no matter what appears in your mind

What, you just note [these will disappear, I am not a thought, your thought is not me], and that witnessing is awareness."

Zhuang Yijing felt like he was about to faint.

She frowned, "I have to think about it carefully."

After a while, he asked again, "What if I agree with my brain's thoughts? What is going on?"

"If you identify with the thoughts in your brain and feel that the thoughts in your brain are you, and identify with it no matter what you think of, and follow it, you are unconscious." Ning Youguang said, "A person who is unconscious is like a person who is controlled by himself.

A child driven by his brain, naive and stupid."

"..." I feel like most of them are understood.

Zhuang Yijing stroked his forehead, "Is awareness the awakening?"

She was determined not to be an innocent and "silly" child.

"No." Ning Youguang said, "Awakening is holistic - it is the entire subjectivity and the entire objectivity as a separate phenomenon. Awareness is an action, you are doing it, and you have yourself. So,

The phenomenon of awareness is divided into subject and object. Awareness is a relationship between subject and object. There is a dichotomy between subject and object. Awakening has absolutely no subjectivity or objectivity. In awakening, there is absolutely no subjectivity and objectivity.

In it, there is no one who is aware, and there is no one who is aware. It is a whole, complete behavior, and the subject and object have nothing to do with it, they are dissolved. So awakening does not mean that a certain person

Being aware does not mean that something is noticed; awareness implies a person who does it.”
