The Subconscious Mind and the Sixth Sense

Chapter 57 The Deepest Internal Strength—Mind Power (5)
It is said that more than 2000 years ago, there lived a young man in Shouling, Yan State. He was from a wealthy family and had no worries about food and clothing.But he is very unconfident, and often feels inferior and inferior to others for no reason. He always thinks that others dress better than him, eat better than him, and have more temperament than him. It is also elegant for others.In short, it is that other people are good at everything, but I am not good at anything.

One day, when he was walking on the road, he heard someone say that people in Handan walked beautifully.As soon as he heard it, he fell into a heart attack, and hurriedly wanted to find out: How beautiful is the walking posture of Handan people?

So, one day, without telling his family, he ran to the distant Handan.As soon as he arrived in Handan, he felt fresh everywhere, which was dazzling.Seeing children walking, he feels lively and beautiful, and learning; seeing old people walking, he feels stable, learning; seeing women walking, swaying, learning.In this way, within half a month, he couldn't even walk, and the travel expenses were all spent, so he had to crawl back.

This is the well-known "Handan toddler".If everyone is like a toddler in Handan, blindly despising themselves, blindly worshiping others, copying rote, and following the same steps, the result will inevitably be that other people's strengths are not learned, and their own strengths are lost.

In fact, everyone has their own landscape, with air, sunshine, winter and summer, and even a little flower and insects that no one else has.Even if you can't be a great man, you must be your best self, at least you must know how to appreciate yourself.

Appreciating yourself is discovering yourself and understanding yourself more comprehensively, which is the sublimation of self-knowledge.If you can appreciate yourself, then this person will face life optimistically and confidently, his whole body will be full of vitality, and the people with him will also become energetic.

Don't care too much about what other people think of you, otherwise, it will become your burden.In addition, there is no need to be afraid that you will not be applauded by others, but learn to inspire self-confidence from self-motivation, and remember to applaud yourself at any time.Because people live in the world, they will not always be praised, but more likely to be blamed, ridiculed and ridiculed; because people who learn to applaud themselves and know how to applaud themselves often dare to accept any challenge.This kind of self-motivation can bring a steady stream of motivation to oneself, pursue one's own ideals without regret, and finally achieve one's own goals.

Everyone in life should strive to show their outstanding side. This is a psychological need, and it is a need for survival.Every morning, take a picture in the mirror, not only to see your beautiful face, but also to learn to appreciate yourself.Finally, please firmly tell yourself "I can", strengthen your belief and self-confidence, embark on a wonderful road of your own, and usher in a life without regrets.

The Unity of Man and Nature: Overcoming the Difference Between Subject and Object
【Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Emphasize practice, but not blind practice, but scientific and rigorous practice, practice guided by theory. 】

There is such a story, there is a hard-working fisherman in the distant sea, his wife weaves fishing nets for him and makes a living by fishing.

One day, the fisherman returned from the sea with a full load. The wife was very happy and wondered how big the fish her husband had caught.The fishermen readily cooperated.Then, after each fish was carefully measured, it was found that all the fish caught were larger than 5 cm.The wife excitedly summed up an "authoritative natural law" - there is no fish smaller than 5 cm in nature.

The rules that the fisherman's wife summed up with her subjective and one-sided consciousness are obviously a bit blind.

Many people may think that the fisherman's wife is taken for granted, but why don't all living beings in life have the habit of thinking of taking it for granted?
Everyone lives in a specific environment, and carries out all activities in this environment, and grows here.And cognition is limited.If you only confine yourself to the field of your own life and practice, you will inevitably draw narrow or even wrong conclusions.

There is a saying that "there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky".Thinking that you have a broad field of vision is nothing more than watching the sky from a well to varying degrees.

Some people say: "The universe is very big, if we know the whole universe, then we can master everything." However, science tells us that even the infinitely open universe we used to think is also a closed space.And our thinking is active, and we can break through our own limited time and space.Because of this, people can gain insights from outside their own environment.

This is thanks to human civilization.Language and writing allow us to communicate and gain experience from others, and we can even gain knowledge in areas that humans have not set foot in through rigorous reasoning and argumentation.And these cognitions cannot be obtained directly from practice, or from the cognition of other people, or from the induction and deduction of science.

Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Practice is important, but not blind practice, but scientific and rigorous practice, practice guided by theory.This will make the practice itself more powerful, and move on the right path.In this way, it is possible to avoid repeating the mistakes of the predecessors, and to avoid groping due to lack of communication and reference.

More importantly, you should broaden your horizons and constantly examine whether you have fallen into a narrow space without knowing it.The times are developing, and today's world has become more and more diversified. Therefore, it is even more important to open your horizons, watch and listen to the voices of the world outside yourself, learn from others, check for omissions, and make up for gaps. Don't let yourself become a "frog at the bottom of the well". True courage is to dare to "jump out" to view the world and yourself with broader eyes.

The famous American psychologist Ken Wilber said: When the attention no longer pays attention to the external world or the inner world of the body and mind, the consciousness begins to transform the binary opposition of subject and object, and the fantasy world of binary opposition begins to show the truth— — it is nothing but the manifestation of divinity.Then both the external world and the internal world began to transcend the ordinary and become holy, that is to say, the consciousness itself became bright, sacred and solemn, and it seemed to be able to directly contact and unite with God.This is the way of the saint.Have you noticed that saints in both East and West have halos on their heads, which symbolize intuition and inner light.In the stage of channeling you communicate with God, but in the stage of subtle light, you don't just communicate, but you become one with God.

To achieve the state of "harmony between man and nature", that is, to communicate in the spiritual world, it is necessary to unify the inside and outside to achieve a state of integration.

"Zhuangzi Dasheng" said: "The heaven and earth are the parents of all things." The importance of status.Heaven has its way of heaven, and the way of heaven lies in "creating all things"; the earth has its way of earth, and the way of earth lies in "creating all things"; human beings not only have the way of man, but the function of the way of man is to "become all things".

The mysteries of the universe are difficult for human society to imitate, but the growth, aging and changes of the plants, animals and humans that make up human society cannot escape the domination of nature.People don't need to fight against the laws of nature, but after fully understanding them, they can use them more perfectly for themselves.Even if you are unable to change the objective, you have sufficient energy to develop and develop yourself.

All objective and external setbacks are small difficulties, and the consciousness of "self" is a more powerful enemy ally. When a person can fully understand the laws and facts of objective existence and truly understand the true potential of "self", then That is to transcend objective existence, surpass oneself, and successfully become the master of destiny.

Ancient yoga in India divides consciousness into four states, namely waking, dreaming, deep sleep and superconsciousness.The first three states are the individual ego, and the fourth state is the universe ego, which is the state of meditation in Zen Buddhism, and it includes the first three states. The individual ego and the universe ego are one. the same.In this state, the individual ego merges with the cosmic ego, achieving the state of harmony between man and nature, and the corresponding state of man and nature.In this state, one realizes the true meaning of life in the universe, one realizes that oneself and the universe are one body, and that everything in the universe is equal without distinction.This is also the unity of man and nature in the spiritual world.

Just as the Buddhist scriptures say: "All dharmas are equal and there is no superiority or inferiority." Practicing to this state is called entering samadhi and samadhi, which is the state of super awareness. "Famen.This state is the ultimate goal of yoga.Yoga is correspondence, which is to achieve the unity of heaven and man and the state of correspondence between heaven and man through practice.

"Heaven and man as one" is also a state of transcendent harmony and tranquility.It is often said that "peace is the most precious", "harmony produces wealth", "family harmony and everything prospers", "peace is harmony".Throughout the ages, no matter what kind of society no matter who is in power, they have all pursued a harmonious society where heaven, earth and people are in harmony, and the country is peaceful and the people are safe.

"Harmony between man and nature" means the world is peaceful and smooth, and the high degree of harmony between man and man, man and society, and man and nature, truly achieving the state of heavenly movement, earth tranquility, and human joy, is the integration of the inner and outer parts of the personal spiritual world.

The famous American psychologist Ken Wilber said: "When you push back into this pure subjectivity, pure viewer, you don't see it as an object-you can't see it as an object, this It's because it's not an object at all! You can't see anything. But as soon as you calmly still in this sense of noticing - looking at the body, mind and floating naturally - you may start to notice what you are actually feeling What you get is a feeling of freedom, a sense of liberation, a sense of not being bound by the objects you see. You can’t see anything, you’re just still in the vastness of freedom.”

The object must be perceived by the subject, and the subject must be carried by the object. A pure spiritualist cannot become a wise man. On the contrary, he is just a metaphysical fool.All single imaginations are empty.Just like a person's delusions are meaningless.All delusions can only be fantasies. It is better to recognize the reality and yourself, so that the subject and the object can be integrated, and a state of harmony between man and nature can be achieved.

The ancient sages had rich thoughts on the harmony of "the unity of man and nature".Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism, said: "Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature." That is to say, people must respect nature and must not violate nature. The way of heaven, "those who follow the sky will prosper, and those who go against the sky will perish."Confucius put forward that "Heaven and man are one", that one must follow the will of heaven and the principles of heaven when doing things for people, only then can the heaven and the people be happy, and everything will be prosperous.

Human beings are the foundation of all things. To build harmony, the first thing is human harmony.As the saying goes, "thousands of people, thousands of sexes", these years are fiercely competitive and tense.In life, interpersonal conflicts and disputes are often unprepared and troublesome.And in life, who doesn't want to live a relaxed and comfortable life and have a harmonious interpersonal environment!
Confucius said: "Gentlemen are in harmony but not in harmony, villains are in harmony but not in harmony." Treat people with "benevolence", be lenient in the world, and harmonize with each other. Tolerance, kindness.Only in this way can we truly achieve harmony and happiness, live in harmony, and live in peace and prosperity.

Lao Tzu believes that "heaven" and "man" are one of the myriad things, and they all originate from the Tao, and man is united with heaven, so that man is separated from heaven and man and resists to become one with heaven, and heaven and man are one. So as to achieve the highest state of heaven and man returning to the Dao.

The harmonious society of the mean pursued by our ancestors for thousands of years is actually just an ideal state and has never been realized. A "harmonious society" is not only the harmonious coexistence between man and nature or between man and man, but also true fairness, justice and moral conscience. The high degree of harmony between heaven, earth and man.

"Harmony between man and nature" is inevitable for success.The sky and the earth are long, and all living beings range from the prosperity of the country, the rejuvenation of the nation, and the harmony of the society, to the healthy growth of the individual, a happy family, a happy life, and great achievements.Ordinary people who want to achieve their goals must obtain "the right time, the right place and the right people", which is actually the harmonious environment of "the harmony between man and nature".To do things for others, whether it is to benefit oneself alone or to benefit the world, if you want to do things, accomplish things, and do great things, you must follow the way of heaven, make the best of the place, and follow others.

Real pain can more clearly perceive the tenacious growth power of life.

A hundred years of life has gone through hardships, whether you are happy or sad, whether you succeed or fail, you are always on the road, so feel soberly and live down-to-earth.Abandon vain delusions, get rid of confusion about things, recognize one's own way, overcome all objective difficulties, find the invincible "self", give full play to subjective initiative, pay attention to internal cultivation of the spiritual world, integrate the spiritual realm, and experience more A vast world of freedom.

Inner source: you are very wise
[In this colorful world, there are always countless unsolved mysteries, waiting for people to explore and discover.The complex brain nerves in the body also hide countless astonishing powers, and the potential of human mind and brain wisdom is even more enormous. 】

So far, science is facing two major problems, one is the mystery of the vast universe, and the other is the mystery of human beings themselves.

Many scientists and psychologists can't help but marvel that every human being is a miracle in himself.How much human potential has yet to be developed?unknown.

Some researchers believe that under certain conditions, people can burst out potential beyond self-imagination.When people are in desperate situations or in distress, they often display unusual abilities.When people have no way out, they will generate an "explosive force", which is potential.

Human potential is multifaceted: intellectual, physical, emotional, and so on.However, due to situational constraints, people only develop 1/10 of their potential.So, everyone is a potential genius.

Don't rush to deny it, don't try to use the success of a great man to prove that you are just an ordinary niche.Not to mention lamenting that you are a mediocre public and it is impossible to become a genius.

In this colorful world, there are always countless unsolved mysteries, waiting for people to explore and discover.The complex brain nerves in the body also hide incomparably astonishing power, and the potential of human mind and brain wisdom is even more enormous.

There are some very wonderful laws in the universe, the most wonderful of which is the "law of belief", because the subconscious mind can't tell whether something is true or false, through repeated imagination, as long as you believe it, it will eventually become a fact.There is a dormant and dormant activity in everyone's subconscious mind.This activity and creativity flow from the same source as the forces that sustain the universe.

The steel magnate Andrew Carnegie recited his goal 1000 times a day. His goal was: "I want to become a millionaire."So he did it, he said it to himself a thousand times a day.In the end, he really became a millionaire.In fact, it is not that "reading" will succeed, but that "reading" has been input into his subconscious for a long time. The deep-rooted idea in his subconscious is to become a millionaire, so his subconscious will control his actions to achieve his goals. Work hard and overcome all difficulties to achieve this goal.This way of thinking only opened up his deeply buried potential.The reason why he is so successful is because he strongly wants to be successful, and believes that he can be successful, and then goes forward to do it.But people throughout the ages have lost more of their original beliefs.

The subconscious mind can't tell the truth from the false, as long as you keep repeating the imagination and believe it, things may become real; the subconscious mind never rests, as long as you tell the subconscious mind that a certain thing can be completed before going to bed, you can find that the subconscious mind can create many things. miracle.

Since ancient times, a few outstanding figures have understood the great power of the subconscious mind, and no matter what era it is, those so-called geniuses and great men must fully utilize the potential ability hidden in themselves and try their best to achieve extraordinary achievements.

Human learning, memory, cognitive potential, human creative potential, human thinking spirit, cultural quality potential, etc., are all concrete manifestations of human mind and brain potential.If you can believe in and use your potential, you can make use of your previously undetected strengths and create a beautiful life that you didn't expect.

When Edison was a child, he was considered stupid by the school teacher and lost his formal school education.And with the help of his mother, through the development of unique mind and brain potential, he finally became the most famous inventor king in the world, completing more than 2000 inventions and creations in his life.He made groundbreaking inventions on many items such as the phonograph, electric light, telephone, and sound films, which fundamentally improved the quality of human life.He is a typical example of people's creative potential, that is, the better development of human mind and brain potential.

Scientists once pointed out: "Contemporary science enables us to understand the structure and working conditions of the human brain, and the capacity stored in the brain leaves us stunned. People who work under normal conditions generally only use a small part of their storage capacity. If we can Force our brains to work at half their capacity, and we can easily learn 40 languages, memorize a set of Soviet encyclopedias, and complete dozens of university courses."

Such words can't help but shock people. If everyone can reach this level, everyone in this world must be a great wizard.But why is it not the case?There are many ordinary people, but even geniuses rarely reach this level?
Many people are unable to achieve success in their lives, not because they cannot pursue success, but because they think they are ordinary people and do not believe that they can reach the pinnacle of success.They set a height in their hearts that limits their success.

The monkeys performing in the circus have been trained since childhood.The monkey was very naughty and playful when he was young, so he tied the monkey to the wooden stake with a rope. The monkey was weak and could not pull the wooden stake up after many efforts. After a long time, as long as the monkey was tied to the wooden stake It knows that it can't break free, and it will be very peaceful.
