Chapter 342 You can read it, but you can’t believe it.

Although flying swords cannot be used to send messages in this city, Lu Pingxi still has other means to find the little flower demon and the others. After all, Lu Pingxi is a monk at the Golden Core stage and has many means.

He had already placed a spiritual mark on the little flower demon. As long as he chased this mark, he would be able to find the little flower demon.

Judging from the current situation, Lu Pingxi felt that it was better not to search for the little flower demon in a big way, so as not to trigger any troublesome things.

According to the words of the Tao Te Ching, water benefits all things without contending with it, which is also the attitude a practitioner should have.

You have a high realm and strong strength just because you are ahead. If you don't always hold the state of mind of a Taoist, it will be difficult to go further.

Therefore, Lu Pingxi didn't want to be like those monsters who thought he was superior to others who were not as high as others, but continued to maintain his usual self.

There are many people or monsters who are submissive when they are weak, but then strike hard when they gain power. This is hypocrisy, and their hearts are shaken when they lose power.

And a Golden Core Stage monk like Lu Pingxi is the same regardless of whether he is at a low level or a high level. He will not feel inferior and distressed because he loses power, nor will he be proud and indulgent because he gains power. This is true, and his heart will not follow the outside world. Fluctuated by changes in things.

In many biographies, people or monsters change drastically after they become immortals and become Buddhas. In fact, this is a manifestation of hypocrisy. Sun Monkey went to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures, and when he arrived in the West and was conferred as a Buddha, he became a different person. After all, this is the achievement of Buddhahood. , or the tool monkey that made Buddhism possible?

On the contrary, people like Jigong and Maitreya Buddha understand what is true. They have remained the same since the beginning of the Tang and Song Dynasties, have gone through eighty-one difficulties without changing, and are firm in their Taoism. He is the true one.

In Journey to the West, Taoism and Buddhism are all winners, but the monkey is just a tool monkey. In the end, the monkey neither attained Taoism nor became a Buddha.

A true Buddha is like a Bodhisattva. If you don’t grant him the title of Buddha, he is still a Buddha. A false Buddha is like a monkey. If you grant him the title of a Buddha, he is not a Buddha either.

Lu Pingxi walked forward slowly, and was also thinking slowly. This road to immortality was far from being as simple as he imagined. The one hundred floors of the tower of cultivation required not only strength to climb up, but also We still need to realize it layer by layer.

If you just kill them layer by layer, then this is not cultivating immortality.

Lu Pingxi suddenly recalled what the corpse cultivator had said before. The corpse cultivator said that the top level of the Immortal Tower was just a conspiracy. Countless monsters worked desperately for the 100th floor, but in the end they only died.

Lu Pingxi did not agree, but he believed that there is no way to become an immortal on the 100th floor. The way to become an immortal should be to climb every level of the Immortal Tower from the first level. Only when you go up can you understand the true art of cultivating immortals.

Thinking of this, Lu Pingxi walked more steadily. He didn't want to miss anything by walking too fast or climbing too fast.

People often ask what is the meaning of life?

Because after coming to the human world, the money, status, and love you get cannot be taken away. Once you die, they will disappear like smoke.

Therefore, people pursue immortality and do not want to die just yet, especially those emperors who have supreme power. They want to stay in power forever. Ten years is not enough, nor is a hundred years, nor a thousand years is enough.

But because of this, they cannot attain the Tao, and even if they take the elixir, it will have no effect.

Even the emperor is like this, let alone ordinary people? What do ordinary people live for?

Lu Pingxi doesn't know this either. Although he has thought about it, he has not come to a conclusion. After all, the meaning of life is as mysterious as the way of heaven. Why humans are born and why life is born are questions that many philosophers have wondered about. It's something that I can't even think about in my lifetime.

In other words, this kind of thing cannot be concluded through thinking.

Theory is theory after all, and practice is the only criterion for testing truth.

That’s why people cultivate immortality, like Zhuangzi. His wisdom is already high enough, right? But he could only see one-sided things. At that time, he believed that the sky was round and the continent was surrounded by four oceans. The water of the rivers flowed to the sea, but the sea never grew, so there must be a seaport under the sea to release floods.

So even Zhuangzi didn't know something, and what he said was just the result of his thinking. If he could live forever, would he have new views and insights if he lived to this day?

In the final analysis, you still have to survive. Therefore, Taoism emphasizes the dual cultivation of life and life.

In the past, Lu Pingxi believed that people could not cultivate immortality but only cultivate Taoism, but now he understood that since he wanted to cultivate Taoism, he also had to cultivate immortality.

The ancient Taoists only thought and meditated to comprehend the world. They hoped to find out the true meaning of the universe through this method. However, the universe they saw using this method was only a corner of the universe. If they could survive to this day, then maybe You can use the power of science to verify your ideas.

Then the "Book of Changes", "Tao Te Ching", "Zhuangzi", etc. may also be revised, and the veil of the way of heaven may be unveiled even more.

Therefore, you still need to cultivate immortality, whether you are seeking the Tao, praying to Buddha, thinking about the meaning of life, or exploring the true meaning of the universe.

Only by living, living, and immortality can we persevere until the end and wait until the time when we can explore and understand everything.

Lu Pingxi had a flash of inspiration. He felt that someone in the parallel world had influenced him. Maybe it was an old monster who had lived for millions of years. Maybe it was a great god who had discovered the truth of the universe. Own.

In short, he gradually understood that the process of climbing the Immortal Tower was to cultivate immortality.

If you want to cultivate Taoism, you still have to cultivate immortality first, and if you want to be successful in cultivating immortality, you must cultivate Taoism.

Cultivation of Taoism and cultivation of immortality are indispensable!

In addition, science and immortality are also indispensable.

Newton, Hawking, and Einstein were great scientists, but they still had to die in the end. If these people could live forever, would it be possible to further uncover the mysteries of the universe?

Perhaps this is because Newton and Einstein came into contact with theology in their later years? Is it because they understand that the truth that humans can observe is ultimately limited?

Studying the truth of the universe with a human body is like a frog at the bottom of a well observing the sky through the mouth of the well.

Zhuangzi believes that it is not advisable to talk to the frog in the well about the ocean, because the frog in the well does not understand what the sea is. But in fact, if an alien talked to Zhuangzi about space, Zhuangzi would not understand either.

Zhuangzi's limited life prevented him from exploring infinite knowledge, so Zhuangzi's words can be read, but not fully believed. In the same way, the ancient alchemy books and cultivation methods can be read, but not fully believed.

The "Tai Shang Yu Qing Immortal Law" obtained by Lu Pingxi can only be read, not fully believed.

There will be another update later, probably
