Chapter 14 14 Belief
Chapter 14 14. Faith
It was sunset when the three of them returned home.
This trip was not very smooth, but fortunately, we achieved our goal without any danger.
"Song Jingjing Method", two boxes of soothing incense are placed on the table.
Lu Li picked up the book and said, "Miss Wanqing, let me read it to you."
Wan Qing's pretty face turned red and she looked forward to it: "Thank you, sir. I was just going to read it."
Lu Li cleared his throat and read aloud:
"When you enter samadhi, you should clear your mind and meditate, concentrate on introspection, collect the scattered mind and shine on the sea of consciousness, so that the spiritual form is stable."
…
In a nutshell, this book also only has more than a thousand words. The opening chapter talks about how to practice with the help of "visualization" method.
I saw an ink painting accompanying the book, depicting a vigorous and lonely pine tree, called "Pine Quiet Contemplation Picture".
The so-called visualization is to close your eyes and use your mind to describe the painting in the sea of consciousness.
Repeating this process will make your mind stronger and stronger like exercising a muscle.
After reading this, Lu Li felt that this cultivation method was not difficult.
Next, we will talk about the most core part - how to break through the realm.
But I didn't expect that such an important thing only has one page, and the core is only one sentence:
“That’s why knowing the mind and nature, seeing one’s self, the mind will never turn back, and it will become calm by itself…”
Lu Li frowned and didn't quite understand what it meant.
Fortunately, Wan Qing has been immersed in this field for many years, and her insights are extraordinary, and she can solve her doubts in time:
"To understand one's heart and see one's nature means to point directly to one's own heart and find one's own beliefs, so that one can stabilize one's mind!"
"Faith... steady your mind?"
After all, he is a modern person, and Lu Li still seems to understand.
Wan Qing thought for a while, fumbled for the book "Understanding Brain Waves" and continued:
“Human thinking is too complex and has brain waves of multiple frequencies.
There is a kind of magical [Alpha wave], which is only produced when a person is most determined and calm.
Before athletes perform at their best, a large number of alpha waves are generated in their brains.
According to Western scholars, entering concentration is to unify the brain into an alpha wave state.
Only an extremely firm belief with no regrets can influence the brain to do this. "
After hearing this Chinese and Western explanation, Lu Li suddenly understood: "This is to use will to influence the brain..."
Xiaocha had a headache listening to it, rubbed her head and sighed:
"In addition to hard work, spiritual cultivation also requires understanding when making breakthroughs. It's no wonder that there are so few monks."
Lu Li deeply believed that this kind of mysterious and mysterious epiphany was the most torturous.
"Strong faith...what is my faith?"
For a 17-year-old boy, this problem is beyond the scope of the problem. Many people never understand it until they die.
But he finally had a goal, and Lu Li sincerely thanked him: "Thank you Miss Wanqing for your guidance, I learned a lesson!"
"Young Master, you're welcome, this book "Song Jing Entering Meditation" is the one that has benefited me a lot."
~~~~~~~~~
【What does a book mean? 】
While the two were being polite, Xiaocha stared closely at the "Anshen Incense" on the table, thinking:
[Will this person agree to let us taste incense together? How should I open my mouth for such an expensive thing...]
Although it wouldn't hurt for three people to smell the fragrance together, after all, they spent a lot of money to buy it, and who would want to let outsiders enjoy it for free?
Xiaocha was not sure what Lu Li was thinking, so she quietly reached out under the table and pinched Wan Qing's thigh.
Wan Qing twisted her body and immediately understood that Xiaocha wanted her to speak.
But it was really hard for her to speak.
After receiving the trick of sensing the sea of consciousness taught by Lu Li, and even seeing the meditation method for nothing, I already took advantage of enough...
At this moment, the venue was a little quiet.
Beliefs cannot be derived by thinking, so Lu Li simply put them aside, then picked up the calming incense and said:
"This fragrance must have miraculous effects, let's try it together?"
The two girls were stunned for a moment, never expecting Lu Li to be so generous!
Normal people would always have a grudge against such an expensive thing...
Wan Qing said naa: "The Anshen Incense is so precious, we deserve it...ah..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiaocha pinching his butt.
"Master Lu is really grand! Then we won't be polite~"
This guy showed a big smile, quickly got up, closed the door and windows, and brought a box of matches.
When I opened the box containing the soothing incense, I saw 5 chopstick-thick pieces of incense inside.
Xiaocha lit one and waited excitedly for the incense to take effect.
Lu Li closed his eyes and began to visualize "Songjing Visualization Picture"
He was born with a good memory and it only took him 3 minutes to describe the pine tree.
"It's really not difficult."
Lu Li nodded, and just when he was about to keep up his efforts, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance.
I saw a faint green smoke filling the room. It turned out that the soothing incense was beginning to take effect.
The fragrance was refreshing, and Lu Li suddenly felt his head clear and entered an ethereal state.
In this state, the brain is at its best, neurons are extremely active, intuition is sharp, and inspiration bursts.
Many things that I didn’t understand were immediately figured out.
Lu Li suddenly remembered: This is exactly what is mentioned in "Understanding Brain Waves" - the alpha wave state of the brain!
Of course, this is only an incomplete state under the influence of external forces, but it is still very effective.
Lu Li visualized the Pine Silence Picture again and succeeded in only one minute, his efficiency increased dramatically!
"The calming incense is really powerful. It has a huge promoting effect on cultivation. No wonder it is so expensive."
And the calming incense has a clear refreshing effect. Neurons are active and the mind recovers very quickly.
Lu Li found that he could ignore the consumption of brain power and visualize continuously.
In this way, the efficiency is even faster!
He visualized twice in a row and was even more convinced of this.
But this is not a good thing - the visualization is so simple, which shows that the training effect of "Relaxation and Tranquility Visualization Picture" is very general.
It's like a strong man using women's dumbbells to train muscles. The efficiency is too low.
After all, it is a common product that can be bought with money, so you can't ask for too much...
But Lu Li suddenly thought:
"Visualization is nothing more than using consumption to make the mind stronger, which is similar to the principle of muscle training."
"When it comes to consuming the mind, who can compare with the Kunlun Mirror! Wouldn't it be an excellent effect to use it for training?"
At this time, with the effect of the calming incense and Wan Qing beside him, why should Lu Li be afraid to give it a try?
He focused his mind on the Kunlun Mirror on the spot!
In less than a blink of an eye, the Kunlun Mirror ate up the mind it had been fed, and then "sucked" it, extracting 90% of the master's mind.
Lu Li immediately felt dizzy and dazed, but his face was full of joy:
"This efficiency is much higher than the "Relaxation and Tranquility Visualization Picture"!"
It is really not easy for ordinary people to use up their brain power in an instant.
Moreover, under the effect of the calming incense, Lu Li closed his eyes and rested for 10 minutes before regaining his vitality, and then continued to infuse his mind into the Kunlun Mirror.
In this way, while training the mind, you can also sacrifice magic weapons, killing two birds with one stone~
A calming incense can burn for 30 minutes, and Lu Li infused his mind three times.
Under this nourishment, the Kunlun Mirror is in a very good state.
Not only has it become more agile, but some small scratches on the mirror body have healed automatically.
Of course, those deep wounds have not changed.
And after absorbing a large amount of the master's mind, now the two are not only connected by blood, but also have a sense of mind communication.
If it was originally manipulated like the ring finger, now it is as flexible as the middle finger.
Lu Li was very satisfied with this harvest, and the calming incense had just burned to the end.
He opened his eyes to see what the two girls had harvested.
