After a pause, he added: "Of course, this is a relatively universal statement. As far as my personal understanding is concerned, this issue can be further investigated and can be explained by foreign religious empiricism. Scholars are explaining When I talk about religion, I think that all religions need to provide insights into life, and if you want to explore the root, the purpose of religion is not God or gods, but people’s lives.”
Yunnan looked serious, and blinked when he heard this, and Tao Ling was a little dazed when he looked at her sideways again, this expression inexplicably reminded him of Wen Qingying.
From returning home on Saturday to now, he has not seen Wen Qingying once.
"Then what about teacher?" Seeing that he hadn't spoken for a long time, Yunnan carefully asked again. Tao Ling reacted suddenly, turned to look out the window, and continued unintentionally: "The most prominent consciousness in Taoism is the consciousness of immortals. Behind the consciousness of immortals is the consciousness of immortality. In other words, the two are originally one, and the desire for immortality is actually Taoism's views and opinions on life, and the idea of longevity run through Taoism, and it can also be said that the consciousness of life runs through.
Perhaps it is this sense of life that makes Taoism always absorbing. To put it another way, when Taoism absorbs folk beliefs, it is constantly enriching its own sense of life. Under the influence of this consciousness of life, people turn to the immortal truth of Taoism for the sake of life in the present and here, which is the ultimate goal of religion just mentioned. "
After saying this, before Yunnan could speak again, Tao Ling said: "These things I said are not necessarily correct, and they are only a very small point, which inevitably sounds biased. Keep your curiosity to explore, and at the same time, keep your feet on the ground to find out." Evidence will do."
Yunnan opened his eyes wide and asked again: "But teacher, does it make sense that you use foreign religious theories to explain Chinese local religion? Also, is this the same as comparative research? What is the difference?"
After hearing this, Tao Ling smiled: "This question is on point..."
As soon as the words were spoken, Kou Huai waved to Tao Ling at the door of the conference room: "Tao Ling! What are you doing?"
Yunnan hurriedly bowed: "Teacher, I'm sorry to bother you."
"No, let's talk about it when we have a chance." Tao Ling responded, turned around and walked towards the conference room.
In the past two years, management has been tight. Although the dinner after the meeting has been cancelled, teachers who are familiar with each other will still make appointments to have dinner. It is regarded as a private dinner and no bill will be charged.
Kou Huai arranged itineraries with several teachers from S University. Tao Ling was his junior brother and the host. After a day of meetings, he felt extremely tired, but he couldn't leave, so he finally took them to the north gate to eat. Had a meal.
Someone at the table praised Tao Ling's academic thinking, but Tao Ling only responded politely. Kou Huai answered for him and said, "My junior brother is just not very good at dealing with people, he is dull."
A teacher sighed: "It's normal, wasn't it the same when we first came out of school?"
Tao Ling smiled.
Finally, we were sent back to the hotel next to the school. The day had come to an end.
Tao Ling walked through the school and was about to approach the college administration building when he suddenly turned a corner and went around the football field next to it, walking slowly around the perimeter.
One lap, two laps, three laps, four laps.
How many stars are there in the sky?
He had just drank a few glasses of wine and walked for a while. The smell of alcohol brought a slight tiredness to him, leaving him with a premonition that "he will definitely have a good sleep tonight."
Tao Ling was always deceived by such premonitions, but every time he felt tired, he was cautious, fearing that this time he would miss the chance to truly fall asleep.
So he went out of the field.
His watch showed that it was half past ten at night. He put his pockets in his pocket and took a shortcut from behind the Tibetology Research Institute. He saw a young couple cuddling in a long pavilion that he had to pass by. He was afraid of disturbing others, so he had to turn another corner.
After all, I took the high road I wanted to avoid.
When he left the west gate, Tao Ling's mind was filled with the bouquet of lisianthus from last week, and he walked to the door of the flower shop unknowingly. The store is not closed yet, to be precise, it is not closed yet.
The flower stands outside were empty, but the lights inside the store were still on, the glass door was closed, but the rolling shutter door was only closed by one-third. Tao Ling looked over and saw various flowers and plants spread out on the ground, and saw clearly that there was no one inside.
