My prehistoric times are too hard

Chapter 378 The core of the ideological system begins with the summary keywords

After realizing that the biggest test on his path to Hunyuan is not having a complete ideological system, Xuanyuan immediately began to think about how to do this.

And wanting to create a complete ideological system is not a simple matter for Xuanyuan.

Not even talking about creating a complete ideological system, just summarizing the core of this ideological system is enough to make Xuanyuan rack his brains.

Because the core of this ideological system is not a slogan, let alone a propaganda.

It was Xuanyuan's thoughts from the heart.

Only the core of Xuanyuan's inner thought system can really help him.

After all, the core of this so-called ideological system will also be Xuanyuan's consistent code of conduct.

All of Xuanyuan's subsequent behaviors must not violate the core of this ideological system.

Everything about Xuanyuan must conform to this core value.

If you look at it from this angle alone, it seems that Xuanyuan put a layer of shackles on himself.

He had to put on the shackles and dance.

In fact, it is not.

This layer of so-called shackles is actually the guideline for Xuanyuan to make all his future actions and decisions.

If this core is accurate enough, all choices and decisions after following this core should be in line with Xuanyuan's original heart.

If one day, Xuanyuan violated this core value, it also means that Xuanyuan violated his own heart.

Of course, just like Xuanyuan thought before, any system of thought needs to keep pace with the times.

Therefore, Xuanyuan's and ideological system can continue to innovate in the details. As long as this change is in line with his heart and does not violate his wishes, it is a kind of ideological progress, and it is also Xuanyuan's progress.

Of course, no matter how much you adjust it, you can't violate the refined core.

Just like the theories of Confucius and Mencius have undergone continuous development, the explanation and interpretation of details are constantly changing.

But their core ideas of "benevolence" and "righteousness" will never be shaken.

Even if the interpretation of "benevolence" and "righteousness" deviates from the interpretation of their time.

It can be seen from this that the core of this ideological system is important to the entire ideological system.

And if it is placed on Xuanyuan, the core of his thought system will be the direction of his Dao practice, which naturally determines Xuanyuan's path and future practice.

From this point of view, the core of this ideological system is also the core of Xuanyuan's practice, and even the core of Xuanyuan Dao.

Therefore, even if Xuanyuan is eager to sum up the core of his own ideological system, he knows that this is not something that can be rushed.

The more critical it is at this critical moment, the more Xuanyuan has to restrain himself.

If he can't find the core of his so-called thought system, Xuanyuan would rather give up the way of Hunyuan temporarily.

Because the end of Xuanyuan's Dao will not be the realm of Hunyuan.

He also doesn't allow the end of his avenue to be just the realm of Hunyuan.

It can be said that the act of determining the core of one's own thoughts will not be easier than Xuanyuan's determination of the practice direction of the Dao law for himself before.

In a sense, it's even more important.

Because the most important thing that determines a person's value and existence is always the person's thoughts.

And the so-called action is nothing more than an action displayed to the outside world under the guidance of this thought.

Without a similar thought, the person would never be able to act accordingly.

In other words, once something is done, it must be in one's own thoughts, so it does not occupy a large proportion, even if it only takes the upper hand in one's own thoughts during special periods.

In fact, if you want to summarize a person's thoughts, it is often said that bystanders will see more clearly.

Just like "The Analects of Confucius", it is actually the words and deeds of Confucius summed up by Confucius' disciples and retransmitted disciples.

As for "Spring and Autumn Annals", it is just the conclusion of Confucius after summarizing the articles of his predecessors.

From this perspective, the Tao Te Ching created by Lao Tzu is even more precious.

It is simply unrealistic for Xuanyuan to make a work similar to "Tao Te Ching", at least Xuanyuan knows that he cannot do it.

It is already a great test to be able to refine the core of one's thoughts from all the behaviors one has done since birth.

Of course, Xuanyuan didn't want to directly set the core of this ideological system from the beginning, which is not realistic.

Xuanyuan has always been down-to-earth along the way.

Inductively at the heart of your own thought system is no exception.

Therefore, Xuanyuan intends to simplify and summarize certain keywords of his different choices in different periods.

Finally, from these keywords, extract the core of your own ideological system.

If the core of this ideological system is extracted from every choice and decision you make along the way.

Then this core is at least in line with Xuanyuan's previous heart.

As for whether it conforms to Xuanyuan's future heart, it still requires Xuanyuan to keep looking forward to the future.

In fact, Xuanyuan's choice was not wrong.

Isn't "The Analects" also summed up based on Confucius' words and deeds?
Since this path is feasible, Xuanyuan can also summarize some useful information based on his own experience.

After summarizing the information, even if there is no way for Xuanyuan to directly find the core that belongs to him, at least he can point out the way of thinking for himself.

At that time, the core of Xuanyuan's ideological system may be able to blurt out.

Xuanyuan began to recall his experience since he was born.

When I was just born, I chose to take the initiative to travel in the prehistoric world. In addition to wanting to gain some gains through travel, the main reason was my curiosity about the prehistoric world.

Even this curiosity has been accompanied by Xuanyuan's travel career since then, and it is also one of the important reasons that supported him to travel all over the prehistoric world.

Therefore, "curiosity" was one of the motivations for Xuanyuan's initial cultivation, and naturally it was also a key word in Xuanyuan's cultivation career.

Driven by curiosity, Xuanyuan traveled and practiced all the way.

In the process of traveling, Xuanyuan saw the so-called fierce beasts and their destruction to the prehistoric world.

From then on, Xuanyuan started his first battle.

After the battle, Xuanyuan chose to clean up the battlefield and try to restore the environment destroyed by the beast as much as possible.

In this matter, Xuanyuan's actions all come from his original heart, he does have a kind heart naturally.

Of course, there are also some innate gods and demons who naturally protect the prehistoric world, but compared to other innate gods and demons, the newly born Xuanyuan may be less affected by this aspect.

The simple concept of good and evil, at the very beginning, indeed determined every choice of Xuanyuan, and the act of restoring the prehistoric world, Xuanyuan has even maintained it until now.

Therefore, Xuanyuan's original heart is to be kind, and "goodness" naturally becomes one of the most important reasons affecting Xuanyuan's decision, and it is also a key word in Xuanyuan's thinking.

During his travels, Xuanyuan faced countless decisive battles and trade-offs.

Although it is very difficult, every time when the world is in a catastrophe, Xuanyuan finally chooses to meet the challenge instead of treating it negatively.

Under Xuanyuan's initiative, he has overcome one difficulty after another, and finally came to today's cultivation level.

Xuanyuan's views on Dao have always been contentious!

That is, the only way to fight.

Fighting is nothing more than an external action, and his core lies in Xuanyuan's courage and self-confidence.

Without these two things, Xuanyuan would not be able to compete at all, nor would he be able to win any competition.

Of course, in the competition along the way, Xuanyuan's wisdom is also inseparable, even if most of his judgments on the situation of the world come from his memory.

Good fighters have no illustrious feats.

Even though Xuanyuan didn't have much to show off his wisdom along the way, how can he go all the way to this level without his wisdom?

If you want to talk about the core of his wisdom, it is the word "stable".

"Stability" seems to be contradictory to "struggle", but in fact they are not completely opposite.

Xuanyuan's "struggle" has always been based on "stability".

From this point of view, "courage", "confidence", "wisdom", and "stability" are all keywords for Xuanyuan to act.

In addition to "stability", "courage", "confidence", and "wisdom" are all indispensable qualities for a monk, let alone a monk at Xuanyuan's level.

Of course, apart from these positive qualities, Xuanyuan's journey has not always been smooth.

When initially deciding whether to take the initiative to join the Dragon Clan, Xuanyuan also hesitated and lingered.

He didn't make up his mind to take the initiative to join the Dragon Clan until he reached the quasi-sage cultivation base and was convinced that he could initially guarantee his own safety.

If one word were to be used to describe Xuanyuan's state at this stage, "weighing the pros and cons" would be perfect.

In the end, even monks cannot escape the word "benefit" in their actions.

Xuanyuan will never deny this point.

Even every time he devotes himself to the catastrophe of heaven and earth, it is for the word "profit".

The difference between Xuanyuan and ordinary people may be that the interests in their eyes are not the same.

As a monk, Xuanyuan's benefit is of course the Dao, and the greatest benefit can only be the Dao.

Whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign, anyone's pursuit can ultimately be attributed to the word "profit".

Fame and fortune are all manifestations of profit.

Even if it is a sacrifice, even if it is a gift, the word "benefit" cannot be avoided.

Sacrifice for love, sacrifice for hate, sacrifice for righteousness, sacrifice for faith.

Explain that their "profits" are different.

Such "profits" may be family members, lovers, honors, beliefs, and family and country feelings...

The drive of any event can be regarded as driven by "profit".

Therefore, it is human nature to pursue profit, and it is also Xuanyuan's nature. It is also one of the motivations for Xuanyuan's struggle and one of the key words of Xuanyuan's thinking.

And when doing things, there will always be different "interests" tangled together, or even mutually exclusive.

At this time, all the choices may be difficult, but in the end they are all made under the trend of "profit".

And how to judge which choice is more in line with your own "interests" involves a deeper analysis of "interests".

Because there has never been a quantitative standard for the comparison between "benefit" and "benefit".

Because some "benefits" can be sacrificed, and some "benefits" cannot be compromised at all.

The "profit" that cannot be compromised is one's own principles and one's own persistence.

Of course, the choice is always difficult, the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety.

"Loyalty" and "filial piety" are both one of the principles of life and one of personal persistence.

When encountering such a problem, no one will not have a headache, and no decision can be said to be correct.

Once faced with such a choice, it will inevitably be accompanied by pain.

This is like the choice Xuanyuan faced in the final battle.

Fighting in the prehistoric world is to some extent against Xuanyuan's principle, but giving up attacking the Western Alliance also violates Xuanyuan's principle of pursuing the Dao.

In the comparison between the two, Xuanyuan chose to pursue his own path.

This is also a choice that cannot be distinguished right from wrong.

It can be seen that even if it is difficult to distinguish the importance of "Li", when the final decision has to be made, they can always be distinguished.

Of course, some people will choose "loyalty", while others will choose "filial piety".

In the judgment of the outside world, there may be inclinations towards the two, but for those who make the decision, their inclination is their final decision.

No matter how the process is, Xuanyuan can get to where he is today, and one of the good qualities that cannot be separated is perseverance, persistence, and perseverance.

This is also one of the qualities that every practitioner must have.

……

Of course, in Xuanyuan's long practice career, there are still many, many choices that can reveal his various thoughts.

But generally speaking, it is "curiosity", "kindness", "stability", "struggle", "wisdom", "courage", "confidence", "pursuit of profit", and "perseverance".

These few keywords can be said to be the most important core for Xuanyuan to reach today.

If we look at these keywords alone, Xuanyuan's choice may not be much different from the choice of most monks in the prehistoric world.

Actually it is not.

Because the seemingly same qualities have different priorities in the hearts of different monks.

It seems to be what Xuanyuan thought before, the choice between "loyalty" and "filial piety".

The difference in priority in the subtleties can create two different lives.

When adjusting hot pot ingredients, choose the same seasoning, but the amount is different, the taste is still different, let alone the choice of life.

And in life, every choice is different, it will create a different ending.

Xuanyuan has enough self-confidence, it is under the influence of these keywords that he was able to reach the level he is today.

And the extremely relevant qualities of these keywords that I have are the main reason why I have come to this day.

With these, even if it happens again, there is a high probability that Xuanyuan will still have everything he has now.

This is also the so-called character determines destiny.

　This chapter is indeed difficult to write, but some people may think it is long-winded, or even nonsense.
