About After I Became a Soul Killer

Chapter 373 On the Tao
Just when everyone was ready to attack it with all their strength.

"and many more!"

"Don't do it!"

Chen Zifan shouted.

Everyone looked at Chen Zifan instantly, and Chen Zifan signaled everyone not to be reckless.

Yet he himself went forward.

Chen Zifan sat cross-legged opposite Wuming.

The two sit opposite each other.

"Monk, let me answer your question." Chen Zifan said.

He didn't call Wuming Master, Master or Abbot, Chen Zifan just called him a monk lightly.

The nameless spiritual pressure shield still wraps himself, and he still sits cross-legged in meditation.

"You ask, what is a Buddha, right?"

"Buddha is a realm that cannot be met but cannot be sought." Chen Zifan said lightly.

"Buddha is enlightenment, and enlightenment can be encountered but not sought."

Wuming seemed somewhat satisfied with Chen Zifan's answer, he asked, "Then what is enlightenment?"

"Whether there is a bodhi tree, and whether there is a bright mirror. If you offend the dust, why bother to get rid of the dust?"

Wuming laughed, "You are denying Buddhism."

"No, I'm stupid. I just think that everything that happens has a certain historical reason. I'm not denying Buddhism, it's just that you and I have different positions."

"So what's your position?" the monk asked.

"Well, it's hard to say. I personally think that the essence of the world's cognition is absurd."

"It's like the ethics of the earth may not necessarily be the ethics of the universe, but absurdity always runs through the lines of history."

"Absurd?" Wuming laughed softly.

"Precisely, in order to cope with this terrible absurdity for thousands of years, various doctrines, philosophies, ideas, schools and groups have been born."

"You asked us what a Buddha is. I think that Buddha is the means you use to deal with absurdity."

Hearing this, Wuming slightly opened his eyes, and he stared at the boy in front of him.

The boy also looked directly into the monk's eyes.

"Then how do you deal with this absurdity?" the monk asked the boy.

The corner of the boy's mouth raised and he laughed, "It's very simple, armed with thoughts."

"Armed with weapons and weapons? How to deal with it?" The monk then asked the boy.

"Well, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. People's knowledge comes from social practice. When encountering various problems, we need to use materialist dialectics to analyze and solve them."

"In my cognition, if you want to successfully deal with the sudden absurdity, you must make your thoughts conform to the laws of the objective outside world. If you don't, you will fail in practice. My cognition is as simple as that."

Wuming chuckled softly: "Oh? In your perception, Buddhism is more like a means or spiritual belief to fight against the absurd nature of the world?"

"That's right, everything in the world is showing an increase in entropy, changing from order to disorder. In order to fight against this absurd increase in entropy, people will use their rational minds to think." Chen Zifan said solemnly.

"So in your opinion, what is a human being?" Wuming asked.

"Man is a thinking animal."

"What is thinking?"

"Thinking and cognition complement each other. In the course of a series of social practices, human beings start to see only the phenomenon of various things, seeing one-sided rather than comprehensive aspects of each thing, and the first contact can only see the external connection between various things."

"However, I think the term test was born in the second stage of cognition. With the continuation of human social practice, people's brains will be angry with a sudden change in cognition after repeated many times the things that arouse people's feelings and impressions in practice. That is, quantitative change leads to qualitative change, and here comes the concept.”

"The concept is no longer a phenomenon of things, not all parts of things, not their external connections, but captures the essence of things, the whole of things, and the internal connections of things."

"And the concept is the same as the feeling, not only the difference in quantity, but also the difference in quality. Following this, the method of judgment and reasoning can produce ethical conclusions."

"Therefore, I think thinking arises from the unity of opposites between cognition and social practice." Chen Zifan carefully considered every word.

It's like a defense, a life-and-death struggle defense.

In order to get back the fragments of the divine vein, Chen Zifan is willing to discuss with the monk their views on the world and human beings.

The first question asked by the monk is what is Buddha?
Chen Zifan believes that Buddha is a means or belief created by human subjectivity and idealism to deal with the increase of world entropy.

The second question asked by the monk is what is a person?
Chen Zifan believes that humans are thinking animals.

The third question asked by the monk is what is thinking?
Chen Zifan believes that thinking is born in the unity of opposites between cognition and social practice.

In the second stage of the process thinking is born.

"Benefactor, I have another question." Wuming looked at Chen Zifan's firm eyes.

"You say."

"Since you don't believe in cause and effect, what is God?" Wuming asked lightly.

"Gods can also be killed." Chen Zifan's tone was cold and firm.

listen!The ancient bell is ringing!Cleanse the dust of this world!

"Then how do you define your existence?"

"Us? Humans? Or humans from the other world?"

"Inside the world."

"It's just a trick of God."

"In my eyes, God is like a capitalist who keeps squeezing souls!"

Having said that, Chen Zifan stood up.

He opened his hands and shouted loudly: "Dear Davari! Every day at sunrise is the time to declare war on capital!"

"Capital doesn't sleep, it just keeps squeezing!"

"Death asked Max, come with me! Marx replied, will you liberate those souls that have been squeezed after death?"

"Let's finally dream, let's face reality!

If we are romantics, hopeless idealists, thinking of the impossible, we will answer a thousand and one times, yes, we are.

Let the world change you, and you change the world.

I would rather die standing up than live on my knees.

Don't ask whether the bonfire should be burned, first ask whether the cold and darkness are still there, don't ask whether the bullets should be loaded, first ask whether oppression and exploitation are still there, don't ask whether there is a tomorrow for the just cause, first ask whether the injustice in the world still exists today. "

"Monk!" Chen Zifan looked at Wuming fiercely: "How can I turn my face away from other people's suffering?

I embarked on a road longer than my memory, accompanied by the loneliness of a pilgrim, with a smile on my face, but full of pain in my heart.

You should have a strong aversion to injustice happening anywhere in the world!That is the most precious quality of a revolutionary! "

Chen Zifan's impassioned speech shocked everyone.

Wuming looked at the boy in front of him, "Interesting, God didn't deprive you of your memory, this is God's mistake."

"What about you? You and I are the souls of the world, you and I both have the ability to think! You have your own way to fight against the torrent of the world! I also have my way!" Chen Zifan looked at Wuming and said with a smile.

"Go, go get it, that thing is in the palm of Stone Buddha." Wuming said lightly.
