Chapter 182
Who Says 3D is a Sea of Suffering?
After waiting a while, Qingjiao saw that there weren't any very accurate answers in the interactive comments, so she continued:
"The principles that the founders of those sects realized are actually very simple."
They all realized that the soul, like the body, needs nourishment.
It's what I meant by needing to charge.
But the concept of charging didn't exist in their time, so their definition was to extract the essence of heaven and earth.
But their definitions are very accurate and insightful!
I used the term "charging" to make it easier for everyone to understand.
As the name suggests, the essence of heaven and earth naturally originates from heaven and earth.
Plants, with their roots in the ground and their leaves absorbing sunlight, are species that can directly absorb the essence of heaven and earth.
The amount of essence of heaven and earth contained in a plant is the highest and purest.
Conversely, the higher an animal is in the food chain, the less essence of heaven and earth it contains. This is because, starting with herbivores, the essence has already been diluted to almost nothing by the layers of their own souls.
Therefore, the food mechanism left by the Creator is that vegetarian food nourishes the soul but not so much the body, while meat nourishes the body but is relatively lacking in the energy needed by the soul.
This is why a person can be a vegetarian for life, but cannot eat meat for life.
Because the source of life is the soul, and if the soul loses its energy, life will come to an end.
The most intuitive example of this is in the three-dimensional world: a long-term diet consisting of meat and not vegetables can lead to sepsis.
Therefore, the founders of those sects were incredibly wise, and they practiced and ate according to their insights.
Just like in the three-dimensional world, some people are highly spiritual and naturally prefer vegetarian food to meat, which is a high degree of resonance between the body and soul.
Some might ask, then, does that mean people who love to eat meat have lower spirituality?
No, it can be understood that people who like to eat meat may have abundant soul energy and do not need to replenish too much of the essence of heaven and earth in this life.
Ultimately, what you like to eat is a personal choice, and respecting others' eating habits is respecting yourself. A balanced diet with a mix of meat and vegetables is the key to a healthy lifestyle.
So whether you are currently practicing or those who think you have grasped some profound and mysterious theories, don't think that the three dimensions are a sea of suffering and that you can escape the sea of suffering by practicing.
Furthermore, we should not allow such views to be introduced into other people's minds through lectures.
Because the three-dimensional world is never a sea of suffering. It's just that due to imperfect civilizational concepts, it only moves in a direction suitable for a portion of people, causing the talents of many more to be hidden, thus becoming a sea of suffering in the eyes of the majority.
Otherwise, go look at successful people; aren't they all full of vigor and ambition?
If it's a sea of suffering, how can they rise to prominence?
If all else fails, ask yourself if you're afraid of anything. If it's a sea of suffering, why endure it?
True spiritual practice is not about surpassing others. From the perspective of the soul species, each soul is a unique existence in a different beehive of the hive, with different growth paths, and there is no comparability.
Rather, it's that you understand that although life may be full of hardships, the journey is also filled with beautiful scenery and birdsong.
Let's keep moving forward with a positive attitude and contribute to the spiritual recharging station.
At the same time, on the road, awaken the seeds brought by your soul, plant them by the roadside, and add brilliance to the foundation of civilization.
Just like the chubby employee I interviewed yesterday at Yaowangxing, why are so many people like him, who have everything but are always inexplicably sad?
Because it was their souls crying.
They went through a cycle of reincarnation, completing everything, but failing to awaken the seed within their own souls.
Their souls failed to fulfill their unique mission and were unable to answer the questions posed to God.
Throughout history, countless souls have failed and been heartbroken in this cycle of reincarnation.
And how many souls fail every subject, ultimately losing even the right to reincarnation?
If you can't reincarnate, you can't recharge, and in the end, you'll just vanish into thin air.
The most tragic thing is that those departed souls never knew what they had done wrong.
Just like some children in kindergarten.
They hadn't done anything wrong, yet they were expelled from school along with the bad kids.
Once we part, it's forever; there's no going back or reunion.
Even if the Creator has the same thought and generates the same soul energy, it is only a similar energy, and it is no longer the dissipated soul.
Therefore, this era of fire marks the beginning of a new era.
Driven by some need of the Creator, the universe has entered a critical moment for interstellar civilization.
The fundamental nature of civilization on any planet must, and must be, aligned with the standards of interstellar civilizations.
Otherwise, the number of souls saying goodbye wouldn't be just a few, but as many as a planet or even countless planets.
Teaching, teaching!
A fundamental change in business model is urgently needed!
Only by enabling more people to share wisdom can humanity avoid repeating the mistakes of the dinosaurs.
[It made me cry~]
Me too. Although it involves both spiritual practice and a civilized foundation, I can't quite grasp it all at once, but thinking about those souls who perished even without doing bad things, I truly feel sorry for them.
Perhaps this is the ultimate truth of the ruthless nature of the Great Way.
Suddenly, the comments section became lively again.
"Oh, it seems you guys really enjoy interacting."
"In that case, please type any questions you have after listening in the chat, and I'll answer a few of the most relevant ones."
Seeing the screen suddenly become lively, Green Pepper decided to take advantage of the situation to start a story.
I think intelligence is not the same as kindness, just like those highly intelligent people in movies who do bad things.
A bad person with basic intelligence is already terrifying; if they also possess spiritual wisdom, wouldn't that be even more frightening?
Green Pepper picked up the touchscreen, pointed to this classic question, and answered:
Isn't it annoying when flies are buzzing around your head?
Especially when you're taking a nap in a bamboo chair, and after you chase it away it, it flies back again. The annoying intrusion makes you grit your teeth in frustration, and you don't even have time to grab a fly swatter. You just want to grab a slipper from the ground and swat it away.
This makes you lose sleep, and you angrily put on your slippers and grab a fly swatter to swat it away.
But what happens after you swat it off? You're wide awake, staring at the bit of mud stuck in the fly swatter, unable to calm yourself for a long time.
Because you know, this mindless, clueless creature, who doesn't even understand why it's being filmed, is, in its world, a survival game of hunter and hunted, triggered by the search for food.
It only lost the game; it didn't disturb your rest at all.
The cost of its demise cannot buy you the same level of emotion that made you even think of taking a picture of it.
So when you slap it away, it doesn't relieve your anger at all, because the restlessness that keeps you awake doesn't provide any emotional comfort.
But what if, before swatting it away, we imbued it with the power of nature, giving it sentience?
It will hang there in terror and regret, regretting that it didn't go to the toilet in the first place, but instead overestimated itself and disturbed you, and for this it will pay the price.
Only in this way, its disturbance of your rest leads to you taking pictures of it, and its regret calms your frustration, can it be considered a balance of cause and effect.
Only then can you quell the hatred in your heart.
What if we used the power of God to give all flies the ability to think?
That would be even better. When a fly disturbs your lunch break and is swatted away, the flies around you will unconsciously avoid it.
When instinct prompts other flies to land on you and suckle, they think of what they've seen, and fear suppresses their instinct, dispelling the thought.
And they'll spread the word, letting more flies know that they'd rather fly a little further to find a toilet than disturb your afternoon nap!
