Saint Immortal Way

"Tian Xingjian, the gentleman is self-improvement."

"The way of a gentleman is hidden. The way is not far away from others, but far away from others is not the way."

"Walk in a normal position and keep yourself safe. If you walk far away, you will be humble. When you climb high, you will be humble. Sincerity leads to clarity, and sincerity leads to sincerity. Sincerity can reach heaven and earth."

"The way of a gentleman is dark but the rules; the way of the villain is the way of the sun. The way of the gentleman is light but never tiresome, simple and literary, gentle and reasonable, knowing the distance and the near, knowing the nature of the wind, and knowing the subtlety." , can be virtuous to others.”

……

The morning sun shone on the window edge of a private school in Luqiu County, and there was a slightly immature sound of reading in the private school. Lu Yang held a green bamboo piccolo leaning against the window edge, listening to the lecture.

Lu Yang's thin body was only wearing a blue-gray singlet, which was washed white and looked clean. He was wearing a pair of cloth shoes. Compared with the schoolboys in Confucianism clothes, Lu Yang was wearing a Very poor.

Lu Yang listened very carefully. After a while, the sound of reading stopped, and the voice of the private school teacher Huang Zongxi came out: "Our Great Kuang Dynasty has been in peace for more than four hundred years. Today, the Holy One works hard to govern, and the world is prosperous, especially those who are successful in cultivation. Great Confucianism, there are more than one hundred of them in Dongshan alone, this is an unprecedented cultural and prosperous age, so you must work harder, and don't waste your practice!"

"Yes, the student understands, thank you sir for teaching me!" The answer was very tidy, and the voice was still a little immature. The private school was full of young children in white Confucian clothes, some were six or seven years old, and the older ones were twelve or thirteen years old.For some elementary school students, Confucian clothes are embroidered with gold and silver borders, showing luxury.

The Confucian teacher who taught these children's knowledge is called Huang Zongxi. He is a well-known great Confucian in Luqiu County. He is currently practicing in seclusion in Luqiu. He will occasionally come to give a few classes to enlighten the elementary school students in Luqiu to practice the holy way. .

"Well... You are young and naive now (naive here is not derogatory), it is time to accept my enlightenment of the Holy Way, so you should be diligent in reading, as the saying goes, reading a hundred times will reveal its meaning, and all the saints of my Holy Way have Among the classics handed down from ancient times, there are "Mongolian Scriptures", "Encouraging Learning Scriptures" and "Qionglin Scriptures" that are suitable for you. You can choose one to recite and specialize in specialization. , when you can comprehend the literary spirit."

"Yes, the students know it!" The elementary school students said in unison, full of enthusiasm.

"Well, that's good, now I will continue to teach the foundation of the holy way of practice - the method of meditation..." Huang Zongxi began to preach and teach, and Lu Yang hid outside the window, happy in his heart, and the hard work paid off, and it lasted for three weeks Hiding outside the private school and eavesdropping, this is why I didn't miss this method of meditation.

The method of meditating with the mind is a relatively superficial foundation of practice before the entry into the holy way. It is mainly to open up wisdom through meditating with the mind, and help people gather the light in their hearts and generate "literary energy".

The so-called "literary spirit" refers to the scholarly spirit of scholars. This breath is not illusory, it is real in this world.

The Da Kuang Dynasty was orthodox in cultivating the holy way, and what they practiced was the holy way, that is, the way of a saint.All other practice methods are heretics. The Son of Heaven himself is the great master of the Holy Way. From the Son of Heaven, down to children who enter private schools at the age of six or seven, all practice the way of a saint.

What is the way of a sage?

Establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a life for the living and the people, align with the virtue of the heaven and the earth, align with the brightness of the sun and the moon, align with the order of the four seasons, and align with the good and bad with ghosts and gods.The innate is not against the sky, and the day after tomorrow is in accordance with the sky.Therefore, the way of heaven is beneficial but not harmful; the way of sages is to do without fighting.

So the first karma of the holy way is to "establish the mind".

To establish a heart, you must first gather your heart light. Mind light is the foundation for a scholar to practice the holy way. Concentrating the heart light means that you can officially start the practice of the holy way.

"Writing preaching, every word has a meaning, understand its meaning, feel its heart, match its spirit, give birth to its light, get its meaning, and the literary spirit is born..." Huang Zongxi taught it carefully, and then let all the students choose their own Study the text for meditation and perception.

Lu Yang leaned on his body and peeked into the private school frequently. He saw all the elementary school students sitting upright, and then wrote a word on the white paper in front of the table, and then meditated on the words he wrote, and saw Shenting.

Most of the elementary school students write big, small, heavy, light, pain, joy, anger and other words for meditation. Lu Yang took a peek and thought for a while, knowing that the choice of words for meditation is very particular. .

First of all, the selected characters should be easy to understand. As long as you understand the meaning of the characters thoroughly and meditate often, you can "feel your heart, match your spirit, give birth to its light, and get its meaning. Thus, the literary spirit is produced. This is the first level of the heart of the Holy Way.

Lu Yang squatted down, picked up a dead branch, wrote the word "big" on the ground, and meditated on the meaning of "big". , This is to meditate with the spirit, and the practice can illuminate the light of the heart. This is the method learned from a private school, which is beyond words.

"What is big? The land is vast, the sea is vast, and the sky is boundless. Are these already big? Or is it that the entire universe is big? No, no, these are just things, not the essence of bigness!"

Lu Yang unconsciously entered deep thinking, feeling wonderful and extraordinary, as if the spiritual will had wings, and he was flying freely in the ocean of spirit, visualizing freely.

Everything in the memory began to appear one by one, even the memory hidden deep in the mind can be awakened again, wisdom and mind are revived, and the soul of the whole person seems to have been reborn and baptized.

Snapped……

Lu Yang was immersed in the artistic conception that he had inadvertently comprehended, but for a moment, Lu Yang's thoughts entered deep contemplation, and his mind was completely empty.

In the dark, I feel that the court of God is dark and quiet, deep and unfathomable. Suddenly, a faint bean light is lit up in the deep and quiet court of God, and the deep and dark spiritual world reveals a very pure light , illuminating the square inch of spiritual space.

"What is this light?" Lu Yang's body trembled slightly, and then he became extremely excited, thinking: "Understanding its meaning, feeling its heart, matching its spirit, and producing its light...is this the so-called heart light? ".

This light is the light of wisdom, the light of the soul, and it is indescribable. Lu Yang looked at it with the eyes of his heart, and found that this light was as weak as a bean light, without a source. The light, although its brilliance is weak, is very tenacious, and it is not worried that it will be extinguished.

Gathering the heart light means that you can start practicing the holy way...

Lu Yang was filled with emotion. Although he came from a poor family, his heart was devoted to the Holy Way. Whenever he had time, he would come to private schools to "steal the light". .

After observing the heart light in the divine court for a while, Lu Yang opened his eyes suddenly, and quickly wrote the word "big" on the ground again.

"... Greatness is nothing but greatness!"

Intangible mental thoughts magically attached to the font, Lu Yang was a little dazed, feeling that the "big" character he wrote had successfully attached a ray of energy to him, and there was a kind of vast and endless thoughts and eternal meaning. breath.

"Is this the literary spirit? Sure enough, if you gather your heart and get the true meaning of the words, the literary spirit will come naturally, and at the same time, it will naturally attach..." Just when Lu Yang was pleasantly surprised, the literary spirit on the font dissipated and finally disappeared.

"Yeah? Disappeared..." Lu Yang couldn't help being disappointed, and immediately knew that this literary energy would not last long, probably only lasted for one breath, thinking that this was too short, compared with the immortal literary energy of those great masters , the gap is too big.

"Sure enough, we need to meditate all the time!" Lu Yang exhaled, got up and went to look at the situation inside the private school.

At this time, three student servants who were watching nearby came over, and they immediately spotted Lu Yang who was stealing lessons outside the private school.

"Damn it, it's this cowherd boy who is eavesdropping on Mr. Huang Rushi's lectures. Everyone, beat him up. Our young master has to pay a lot of money to learn and practice. Why should he be a cowherd boy to eavesdrop? ?” The servants ran up fiercely.

"Not good!" Lu Yang was slightly startled, and ran away quickly.

"Stop..." The lead slave was seventeen or eighteen years old. He had obviously practiced martial arts and ran very fast. He caught up with Lu Yang with a few strides, and tripped him with a hook.

Lu Yang was weak, and immediately fell down with an ouch.

"Call me!"

Several house slaves rushed forward and beat up Lu Yang.

"Damn it, these ignorant slaves are really ruthless!"

Lu Yang's small body was no match for him, so he curled up and covered his head and vitals with his hands. However, he had arrogance and backbone in his heart, so naturally he would not bow his head. Make a sound, don't yell, let alone beg for mercy.

"Don't stop!" Huang Zongxi walked to the edge of the window and shouted.

Several house slaves hurriedly stopped, saluted Huang Zongxi respectfully, then gave Lu Yang a vicious look and walked away.Lu Yang was very angry. Although he was beaten, he stood up slowly without saying a word, feeling the pain all over his body.

"What's your name?" Huang Zongxi admired Lu Yang's backbone, and felt that this little guy had a firm character.

"Boy Lu Yang!"

"Why are you eavesdropping here?"

"Of course it is to listen to the teacher's preaching and teaching!" Lu Yang was not at all ashamed, and he puffed up his chest and spoke out.Huang Zongxi frowned, looking at Lu Yang's appearance, he wondered if this young man didn't think it was his fault to eavesdrop on his teachings?

"Eavesdropping is not what a gentleman does. Do you know your mistake?" Huang Zongxi became serious. He is a master of learning and a man of life.

Lu Yang shook his head, and met Huang Zongxi with a pair of pure and dark eyes: "It's wrong, I don't know, but I know a truth, the way is not far from others, and far from people is not the way, sir is also a person who studies and practice, so you should know this truth?"

Lu Yang turned and left when the other party was stunned.Huang Zongxi shook his head, looked at Lu Yang's back, and sighed softly: "What a young man, he has also learned the words of a sage, what a pity, what a pity..."

Huang Zongxi turned his head, looked at the students in the room, and asked, "Who knows what that boy's name is and where he lives?" A little boy hesitated for a while, then finally raised his hand, and said, "Mr. I know, that kid is called Lu Yang, and he lives by the Chuiyang River over there!"
