Chapter 181
The Foundation of Civilization and the Movement of Stars
Why are humans so special, capable of not only procreation but also of creating civilization?
Because only collective energy can be considered the creative energy of the Creator, and any individual in any biological group is merely a drop of water in the corresponding energy river.
The energy of human civilization is precisely the vital energy of the Creator's thoughts.
It is so important that it can be the subjective conception or consciousness of the Creator.
As one comment just mentioned, the expansion of the universe is the Creator's body growing taller.
That's the idea. Our Creator is growing, not only physically, but also in his thought process.
Civilizational energy, on the other hand, is the main energy that influences changes in his thought structure. From our perspective, it is the shifting of stars and the changing arrangement of constellations.
Therefore, the underlying nature of civilization's energy determines the quality of the celestial arrangement, which is to say, whether the Creator's thought structure is good or evil, positive or optimistic.
If the underlying nature of every planetary civilization is ignorance and evil, how good can the celestial arrangement be, and how positive and optimistic can the Creator's mindset be?
Would a creator who is pessimistic and negative to the extreme eventually take his own life or cause trouble in his dimension and bring about his own destruction?
If our creator is gone, then where is our universe, and where is our civilization?
Therefore, this is the cause-and-effect phenomenon on a larger scale: if the world were filled with ignorance and evil, the universe would collapse.
The extinction of the dinosaur era is a prime example. The dominant energy of the dinosaurs hindered the Creator's progress and growth, and was ultimately rejected by the Creator.
The Creator's intentions altered certain perceptions or ideas, which in turn evolved into the movement of celestial bodies, prompting other energy backgrounds to replace the energy background dominated by the dinosaurs.
The same applies to changing civilizations. If one day the Creator discovers that the underlying nature of a civilization is deteriorating and leading it down a path of no return, it will also repent and change its mindset and energy, thus causing the civilization to perish.
The fundamental nature of civilization on that planet depends on what? It is the diverse array of people within that civilization.
The more people of a certain type there are, the more of a certain underlying character will be formed.
So after I said that, do you still think that individuals are unrelated to the universe?
Just like the shop example I just gave, they sell and buy, and sell again, passing it down from generation to generation. Do you think you can live a peaceful and happy life by closing the door?
It's a beautiful dream, but the underlying nature of civilization lies in the character of each individual. Once the underlying nature of civilization is wrong, the corresponding celestial movements will emerge, from small wars to major natural disasters, they will be arranged and evolved in an instant.
Therefore, a healthy and perfect universe requires the joint efforts of everyone to maintain.
This is the secret to longevity: the same kind of soul achieves longevity together, rather than any individual cultivating immortality to attain it.
Just like the piers under a bridge, if all the other piers are gone, even if you build piers of the highest caliber, they still won't be able to support the entire bridge.
That's why I always say that humans and gods are equally revered, because the essence of the souls of humans and gods is the same; it's just that their environments and functions are different.
Betham thought that God was superior to humans, and that only the virtue of the soul could be superior.
So! Those who deliberately cultivate themselves to achieve a certain goal, don't think that cultivation can help you avoid cause and effect or escape disasters or anything like that. As long as your soul energy exists, cause and effect will exist.
True spiritual practice is about living a positive and fulfilling life, taking each step steadily and finding joy in the process. When one's virtue is cultivated, that is the best and purest form of spiritual practice.
Moreover, it's unclear which powerful figure made such a grand promise, leading people to believe that with sufficient cultivation, one could become an immortal.
Well, let's just say it this way: becoming an immortal depends entirely on fate. Without fate, you can cultivate for a hundred lifetimes and it will all be in vain.
This is why some people in ancient times could become gods even after a lifetime of killing; it's because they contributed to the advancement of civilization within a specific historical context, achieving a kind of formal accomplishment.
Doing nothing, just closing your eyes, muttering a couple of scriptures and dreaming of becoming a god?
Some people are truly superstitious and have become attached to appearances!
Ugh... this is so annoying, I've gone off on a tangent again. I knew I shouldn't have read Yuzu's letter; the more you know, the more you talk.
Come on, let me get back to the main topic.
As mentioned earlier, human reproduction is an instinct hidden in the code of the soul.
So what is the meaning of life? We can't just eat, sleep, and have sex like pigs, producing a whole bunch of piglets in our lifetime, can we?
The meaning of life is to recharge the soul in the cycle of reincarnation, and at the same time, to jointly build a safe and stable charging station, which is our civilization.
It's not necessary for everyone to be morally upright, but it's enough for the vast majority of people to be morally upright. Only then can the foundation of civilization meet the standards of the new era and the needs of the Creator.
A good foundation of civilization is the most durable charging station.
To put it simply, it means that souls are reincarnated to recharge, and the cost of recharging is a shared effort to upgrade and create charging areas that meet modern standards.
Only when the soul is recharged can it continue to exist; only with continued existence can we talk about expanding the clan.
Isn't it the same in reality? Civilization is a whole. If you want to survive and do other things, you must first do what is required by the whole civilization.
Therefore, in this life, everyone is both a participant in the advancement of three-dimensional civilization and a beneficiary of the recharging of the soul community.
It has a dual meaning.
Only when more people actively and correctly engage with and participate in it can the underlying nature of civilization in the three dimensions become purer, meet the standards, and exist in a more enduring direction.
Only the human soul, within the human soul category, can attain true immortality.
How can we get more and more people to participate actively and correctly, even if many people don't believe in metaphysics and don't feel a sense of spiritual salvation?
Teaching should change the teaching model, starting from the early stages of human development, to simultaneously stimulate the intelligence and wisdom of more people.
With intelligent technology, we can make our three-dimensional environment more and more comfortable.
When wisdom is abundant, virtue is enhanced, leading to a harmonious and stable three-dimensional environment from the inside out.
Speaking of which, I have to mention those who talk about spiritual practice every day. Do you understand the true meaning of spiritual practice?
Especially those who constantly clamor that the world is a bitter and cold place, that all beings suffer, and that only by saving themselves can they save themselves and cultivate themselves.
There are two types of people who say this.
One type is the "etiquette practitioners" of ancient aristocratic families. How could people in ancient times enjoy sweetness if they didn't experience hardship? How could they find peace of mind if they didn't see hardship as a form of spiritual practice?
Another one is that they actually believe in "Spring Morning".
If you don't believe me, try saying this concept from the opposite perspective and see who is unhappy about it. Why do those who are unhappy insist that the three dimensions indicate a harsh and cold land?
There are even more pessimistic and bizarre views, saying that this three-dimensional world is a living hell.
I've used my brain, which has been kicked by a donkey, to think about this briefly before answering people who hold this view.
Yes, the future three-dimensional world will still be purgatory, a purgatory for bad people.
It is a purgatory for bad people, a purgatory where the tongues of those who tell lies for the sake of "etiquette" are all pulled out.
But it is a paradise for virtuous people.
Therefore, I urge those who practice for the sake of practice to wake up.
If your views are incorrect, or if you have no views at all, and become pawns used by certain "ritualists," then you are not practicing spirituality, but rather doing bad things.
Because your intention is not to jointly build three-dimensional charging stations, but to climb higher, to climb the so-called cloud, and fantasize about becoming a god who makes a fortune with a small investment.
As I just mentioned, the longevity of souls requires unity of purpose. If you are not united, you will eventually be excluded from the soul race.
In the end, they don't even have the right to recharge their souls; their soul energy is eventually exhausted, and their dreams are all for naught.
Ignore those so-called pioneers of spiritual practice, and what they say about how they attained enlightenment or something.
They possess abundant wisdom and have come to understand the true meaning of life, knowing what kind of spiritual lessons they need to learn.
For example, the founders of those religious sects did not advocate eating meat because they understood the principles of vegetarianism.
It doesn't mean you have to completely abstain from meat.
Now, it has evolved like a formula into the absolute prohibition against eating meat.
So, do you know the principle behind those enlightened masters' advocacy of whether or not to eat meat?
