Chapter 138 Awareness of Invoking Information

Xuan Yuan said calmly:
"This brings us back to our original question - what is the heart?"

"It can be seen that, as the embodiment of human consciousness, the heart is not a purely material flow of information in essence."

"The heart carries and uses all the information you have at any time, but it is not just this information, but a higher dimension than this information."

"You trainee scholars, do you have the same skills as our archers?"

"Is it a skill that requires you to enter a special state where your mind is blank when you cast it?"

Xinia nodded:
"Yes, trainee scholars also have many skills that must enter a blank state of consciousness before they can be used."

Xuan Yuan glanced at Xinia.

He swung his palms suddenly, clapped his palms in front of Xinia, and made a loud clap, which startled Xinia.

Xuan Yuan withdrew his hand and said with a smile:

"A moment ago, when I was frightened by me, did my mind go blank?"

"Did any thoughts, emotions, or images arise at that moment?"

Xinia patted her chest lightly with one hand, and said with a smile:
"I was scared by you."

"Yes, at that moment just now, I entered a state where my mind was blank when I cast the skill."

Xuan Yuan stretched out his index finger, and tapped the table lightly and regularly:
"Then here comes the problem."

"The moment you are frightened, since there are no thoughts, thoughts, emotions, or pictures in your mind."

"At that moment, how did you know the fact that [my mind was blank]?"

"If you really don't have anything in your mind, you shouldn't even know [a blank space in your mind], right?"

"It's like going into a coma after surgery, or a transitional state between when you're asleep and when you wake up."

"In that state, you don't realize anything, not even yourself, and you don't feel the passage of time."

"I only feel that the eyes are closed and opened, and the middle part is skipped."

"However, at the moment of being frightened, you can clearly know the whole process of [your mind goes blank], can't you?"

Xinia looked surprised:
"Hey, that's true!"

"If there is really nothing in my mind, it should be because I don't realize [there is nothing in my mind]."

"But, the moment I was frightened."

"It feels like something is watching [there is nothing in my mind], so I can know that I am [there is nothing in my mind] at that moment"

Xuan Yuan nodded:

"correct."

"When you are frightened, the normal flow of thought is interrupted, thoughts become stagnant, emotions cease to arise, and thinking is interrupted."

"Make an analogy."

"It's like a canvas that is densely covered with various paints. Normally, you are completely unaware of the existence of that white canvas."

"One day, the messy paint covering the surface of the canvas was instantly washed away."

"The pure white base that has been hiding under the paint and carrying all the paint is now highlighted."

"At this time, you will find out."

"When you enter [a blank state in your mind], there is actually one last thing left that is like a white canvas. It is precisely this thing that allows you to still see the blank state in your mind."

"Otherwise, you will never know that you are in a state of [a blank mind]."

"This thing is exactly the perspective we are talking about, that is—awareness."

"From this, a discovery can be made."

"Awareness does not depend on thinking, nor does it depend on thoughts, nor does it depend on emotions."

"Awareness represents your pure existence itself."

"Give me an example from life."

"Have you noticed a very strange thing? When we are dreaming, all kinds of weird and wonderful things often happen in our dreams."

"You will find that sometimes you are in the No.1 perspective in the dream, and sometimes you are in the third-person perspective in the air in the dream."

"Sometimes, your identity in the dream is similar to your reality, and sometimes you will become another person completely in the dream without knowing it."

"However, you can all be substituted into the new dream identity without hindrance, and have a real 'sense of self'."

"Sometimes, even though the memory, words, deeds, and way of thinking of the person in the dream are different from you in reality, you can still recognize the person in the dream as [me] without hindrance."

"It can be seen that the source of this [sense of self] does not come from the [memory information] accumulated since you were born—for example: your name, your family, your country, your personality, your Self-definitions such as preferences and so on.”

"This [sense of self] comes from awareness."

"The so-called self-definition you usually call is actually a temporary illusory identity, that is, a false self, that is constructed for you after awareness temporarily calls your memory bank."

"It's like someone thinks [I am a cowardly person who never dares to communicate with others], but as time goes by, when personal cognition changes and actions change, new memories will gradually replace past memories, This person will accept the identity of [I am a brave man who dares to communicate with anyone]."

"At this moment, the definition of self-identity changes."

"However, there was no change in awareness itself, whether it was the former who feared communication or the latter who did not fear communication."

"The only thing that changes is the memories and definitions that are held in the person's consciousness and are always called by the awareness in the unconscious."

"From here, we can know that all the information we have received from the outside world since we were born is actually an information reserve that is constantly filled and called temporarily."

"Anything we receive from the outside world does not represent our own essence, because essence is not something that is constantly changing."

"It's the thing that cannot be eliminated after all the externally input information is eliminated—the heart."

"In other words, mind is awareness, and awareness is mind."

"If we agree with the information that happened in the past, we will think that our personality, character, and weaknesses cannot be changed and are completely innate."

"If you discover the essence of your own consciousness, you will recognize it."

"The only thing in your life that remains with you forever, and remains unchanged until your death, is awareness itself."

"Other than that, all the information you have been input by the outside world can be converted, edited and changed at will, and there is no such thing as unchangeable."

"It's also why, when a pair of twin brothers born at the same time grew up in the same harsh family environment, the elder brother will still become a persistent criminal and the younger brother will become an upright and kind lawyer."

"It is not the information input to them from the outside world that completely determines whether they will become a good person or a bad person in the future, but in their personal growth experience, their awareness chooses to use the external information in a negative way or a positive way to create their own. identity definition."

"Those who have heaven in their hearts live out heaven in hell; those who have hell in their hearts live out hell in heaven."

heard here.

Xinia couldn't help but clenched her right fist and tapped her left palm, with a look of emotion on her face:
"I see!"

"Hearing what you said, it suddenly became clear to many problems."

"It turns out that the essence of human consciousness lies not in memorizing information, but in the awareness that calls information all the time!"
