In Taoism, a substance that is higher than the body and can exist alone. He is the foundation of human consciousness and the true meaning of life. It is impossible to verify the existence of this substance under the existing human capabilities.
Psychology and soul are restricted by their original qualities and external conditions, but human beings can adjust their mentality and soul intentionally or unintentionally afterwards. There are two kinds of unconscious psychological hidden States in human perception: subconscious state and unconscious state. Consciousness-subconsciousness-unconsciousness are related to some extent: conscious purpose, unconsciousness and unconsciousness, and their relationship is the self-ordered field of human body. Traditionally, the body sequence field is called "god": knowing god, meta-god and original god.
The source of Yuan God is the infinite realm, which is a split of the infinite realm spirit.
Shen Yuan comes from an infinite world. In the infinite world, because there is no polarity in infinite matter, the feeling of infinite matter is spiritual. There is no difference in the spirituality of the infinite, and the energy and spiritual force of the infinite are the same, so although the whole infinite world has extremely high spiritual energy, it has no potential energy, so there is no movement, no sound, light, shape, color and so on. And it is silent. This feature of the infinite world makes the spiritual body extremely sensitive to spirituality, but it cannot feel its own existence. On the other hand, the quietness of the infinite world and the high-sensitivity spirituality of the spiritual body make every spiritual body feel no agility, so every spiritual body will not emit any agility at will and cannot interfere with the silence of the infinite world.
The subject of Yuan God is the spirit of the infinite world, and any feeling of Yuan God can be felt by the subject of Yuan God. Shen Yuan's love for purity and tranquility is the nature of Shen Yuan's subject in the infinite realm. Shen Yuan, as a branch of infinite spirit, can move in the universe and feel the rich material characteristics and ever-changing material movement in the space. The subject of Shen Yuan can feel it in the infinite world. This kind of feeling will not disturb the silence of the infinite world, but also enable the spiritual subject to enjoy a high degree of spiritual survival pleasure, which is the fundamental significance of Shen Yuan's existence in the universe without the subject.
The universe is made up of polar objects, and Shen Yuan has great spiritual strength and energy to create polar objects. He can go in and out of any space and polar objects, and he can control their movements. Therefore, no space and mysterious energy with polar objects can destroy Shen Yuan's body or harm Shen Yuan. However, Shen Yuan can't move independently in space, because Shen Yuan will send out spiritual power when moving, and Shen Yuan's powerful spiritual power will destroy the mystery of space and the movement of polar objects. Therefore, if Shen Yuan wants to move in the universe, he must live in a special mysterious body made in Shen Yuan, which can lock Shen Yuan's spiritual strength and make Shen Yuan's activities in the universe not destroy the mystery of the universe. On the other hand, if Yuan Shen is exposed to the cosmic space, the mystery of the space will make the matter in the space have a strong movement, and Yuan Shen can't stand the rush of this material movement, because Yuan Shen is pure and quiet in essence, so he must stay in the mysterious body to calm his nerves. Under normal circumstances, Shen Yuan lives in an active life, while Shen Yuan can use the activity of life to move in space.
Know god
Knowing God is a conscious body formed in the brain of the body that can control the behavior of all beings. From the moment of its birth, living things have been receiving information energy from all kinds of things between heaven and earth with their bodies (including skin and nerves) and senses, including clouds, light and shadow, rain and dew, warmth and sound. In human life, they will constantly accept humanistic things, especially a lot of knowledge and life teaching, and accumulate a lot of knowledge information and things information in their brains. The brain has special biological information processing function. The energy rotation mechanism between brain function and information energy forms brain thinking, constantly copying, evolving, creating and refining new information, which makes the information in the brain expand rapidly and the information energy also increases, forming an energy-sensitive information energy field. This sensitivity is constantly increasing and is produced in the brain. Finally, together with the brain function, a conscious body is synthesized, which has the function of distinguishing and controlling the body, that is, knowing God.
Knowing God is determined by brain function and information energy stored in the brain. What kind of brain function and information energy are stored, what kind of knowledge is derived. Animals have their knowledge of God, and humans have their knowledge of God. The biological performance of human brain function is stronger and better than that of animal brain function, so it can absorb more kinds of information energy and more information than animals, and the derived biology of knowing God is more advanced, and the consciousness and consciousness of knowing God are stronger. However, knowing God, no matter how strong, is restricted by brain function and information storage. People's thoughts will vary widely, and they will not produce thinking ability beyond brain function or stored knowledge and information. Therefore, people's thoughts are bound to be limited to brain functions and stored knowledge. Knowing God and brain function are mixed together, which is an organic composition of life. People's emotions and desires are closely related to knowing God, and they all happen under the function and control of knowing God, so people's understanding of God has factors of emotions and desires. When people's brain function is damaged, knowing God will also be damaged; When the knowledge information system stored in the human brain is disordered, there will also be conscious obstacles when knowing God. These two situations are the root causes of people's mental and behavioral abnormalities. When a person's life ends, his brain function is lost and his knowledge of God is destroyed.
The relationship between the two
Under normal circumstances, Shen Yuan will only enter the human body. The human body's understanding of God is generated in the brain, and the brain function can be controlled by consciousness, thus controlling the body behavior. Yuan Shen comes from outside the body and is a high-energy spiritual body, which is stronger than knowing God. However, knowing God is a combination of brain function and knowledge information. When the consciousness of knowing God is very strong, the brain function and physical behavior are completely controlled by knowing God, and Yuan God and brain can't communicate and play a spiritual role. Because Yuan God is spiritual consciousness, but knowing God is just a consciousness body without spirituality, when the brain is completely controlled by knowing God, thinking lacks spirituality. Sometimes, when God-knowing activities are so tiring that you need to have a rest, Yuan God can get in touch with brain information and control the brain, which will give out spiritual consciousness, that is, people feel "inspiration".
Shen Yuan came into this world with a fetus, and was confined in his body, unable to touch things directly or understand their attributes. He needs his body to store some knowledge and information in his brain in various ways, and then Shen Yuan can make a mental judgment on these knowledge and information. However, when the brain accumulates knowledge and information, it will produce God's knowledge. Therefore, before the formation of God's knowledge, Yuan God controlled the brain. Because of too little knowledge and information, his behavior is blind, showing his naivety. After the accumulation of knowledge and information, the understanding of God is re-formed, which hinders or even controls the communication between Yuan God and the brain, showing that consciousness is strengthened, but spirituality is weakened or even lost. This is the fundamental reason why the Yuan God Society was lost. The bookworm we see is a typical behavior of knowing God without spirituality.
Knowing God produces and controls people's emotions and desires. When people's emotions and desires are strong, they will be dizzy when they know God, and they will lose their consciousness and rationality when they know God seriously. Yuan God has no control over emotions and desires when he knows God and controls his brain and life behavior. When Shen Yuan regained control of his brain and life behavior, Shen Yuan had the ability to control his emotions and desires. The premise for Yuan God to control the brain and life behavior is to destroy God's knowledge and master the right to control life, which needs to be realized through life cultivation, which is also the fundamental reason for the existence of life cultivation in human beings for thousands of years.
The infinite world and the polar world are connected and controlled by their corresponding Yuan God and Zhi God, which is the result of the control of Yuan God. As far as the whole universe is concerned, the universe is an entity, and Shen Yuan is a spiritual body. As far as specific people are concerned, the human body is an entity, while Shen Yuan is a spiritual body. The system of the universe is the result of the commander-in-chief of the Yuan God, and various agents in the form of individuals are the products of different degrees of control of the Yuan God, which is the epitome of different forms of expression of the Yuan God.
God is one of the "three treasures" of the human body. Although it has been discussed by doctors in past dynasties, it is particularly detailed in qigong ancient books. In the book "Dan Dao", it is divided into congenital and acquired, and the innate god is also called "Yuan God". Yuan has the meaning of noumenon, root and origin. Yuan Shen refers to the innate attitude, which is essentially different from the acquired knowledge and the desire for God, and is gradually produced by the external things after birth. As Zhang Boduan said, "People who love God have profound thoughts and desires. Shen Yuan, born "a little light"; The desire for God is the nature of future generations "(The Secret of Purity). Zhang Xichun, a neighbor, also said: "Yuan Shen is carefree and naturally empty; He who knows God is thoughtful and full of spirit "(Reading the West in Medical Enthusiasm).
God originates from the nature of natural parents. "Soul Pivot is God" said: "Life is called essence, and the second essence is called God." "Lingshu Tiannian" also said: "Qi and blood are harmonized, honor and health are connected, and the five internal organs are formed. If you give up your heart and your soul, you will become a person. " In other words, life is born after parents are pregnant. This god is not infected before birth, so it should be called Yuan God for short. As "The Complete Book of Life" said: "After the refinement of parents, there is a little light ... Yuan comes from the void, and I am the God of Yuan."
Shen Yuan discussed it in detail in the book "Dan Dao", which is the experience summed up by the ancient Neidan family in practice. Yuan God is innate, also known as "meta-nature" and "truth". Because it is not the god of thinking (that is, mental activity), it behaves like an ignorant baby, with feeling and agility. Under qigong, people are in a state of indifference and nothingness. At this point, they are breathing constantly, and if they stay or die, they are carefree and look trance. This state is manifested by the Yuan God. As Shi Heyang in Exterior Huang Ting said, "Yuan Shen, the meaning in his heart is alive and lively when he is still." "Pulse Table" says: "Internal thinking is not cute, external thinking is not cute, and I am alone, which is called Yuan Shen." Hui Zong, a martial art, said: "This god is also called nature, which is also called true meaning. His heart must be clear, turbid and degenerate. Without the slightest thought and awareness, it is empty, as if the Yuan God is hanging in it. I feel that the five aggregates are empty, the four bodies are empty, and I have a true self. " In fact, Laozi's saying that "the soul of the camp is inseparable, devoted to soft infants, except for the defects of metaphysics, loving the people and governing the country, opening and closing the Tianmen without women, and being a fool of four talents" is precisely describing the state of life activities dominated by Yuan God.
The relationship between innate Yuan God and acquired knowledge and desire God is unity of opposites. "God, temperament; Shen Yuan, born naturally "; "Meta-nature is subtle and qualitative" (Tsinghua's Secret). In the process of being young, long, strong and old, people become more and more qualitative and less meta-sexual. As a result, they want God to cover up the meta-god, which is "the nature of temperament is better than that of primitive people"; If distracting thoughts are scattered in the altar, Yuan Shen will retreat, and if distracting thoughts are removed, Yuan Shen will appear. This is "when you stop thinking about God, you will go if you move it" (Nourishing Truth Collection). Generally, the Yuan God is hidden by the knowledge of the later gods, and the dream of the night is like a cloud covering the moon, so the Yuan God retired and often knew God. If you can be calm and think nothing, knowing God will naturally retreat and the truth of Yuan God will appear. This is the so-called view of Buddhism and Taoism. God is based on the heart. If the heart does not act, the nature of Yuan God will appear, and if the heart acts, it will desire the nature of God. Therefore, Zhang Boduan said: "Those who cover their hearts, the position of the monarch, the inaction, are the movers and ears of the Yuan God; Do something, move and desire, and desire is just. Actor, the heart of daily use; He who does nothing has the heart of an elixir "("The Secret Text of Qinghua ").
Shen Yuan has close ties with Yuan Qi and jing yuan. "Shen Yuan-jian, born with qi, Shen Yuan born with qi, born with essence" ("Tsinghua Secret"). Inner alchemy pays special attention to the cultivation of the Yuan God, so the Preface to the Four Hundred Words of the Golden Elixir says: "Those who cultivate the God, those who cultivate the Yuan God, are not gods who think." The dominant idea of Neidan Ben is "returning to the original", so it is required to control the nature, from what is there to nothing, and gradually eliminate the temperament. As long as "the temperament is exhausted and there is no beginning, and then you can use it"; "If it is used according to the nature of primitive people, it has innate strength"; "The innate qi is skillful, and it is often used in daily life. It is nothing more than noumenon, so both the innate control and the acquired inaction can be used" (Tsinghua's Secret Text). In this sense, the static practice process of Qigong is the process of eliminating desire and refining Yuan Shen, which is also the key to the effect of Qigong.
Some people discuss Shen Yuan from the perspective of modern psychology, and think that Shen Yuan is an unconscious (subconscious) activity of human beings, but it is not an unconscious consciousness, but an innate "primitive unconsciousness" with obvious natural attributes, which is different from the unconsciousness gradually accumulated from acquired life experiences (such as psychological stereotypes) and is a powerful and primitive source of internal drive for individuals. When the exerciser enters the qigong state, the conscious activity is suspended, so all the factors that monitor and inhibit the original unconsciousness and make it unable to move no longer work, and this unconsciousness can be fully activated. It can not only quickly stimulate the physiological potential in the body, but also directly regulate the viscera, meridians, qi, blood, yin and yang of the human body, making it a "secret of yin and yang", thus making the body in the best functional state and achieving the best training effect. This is the important value of Shen Yuan's Qigong theory.
Shen Yuan —— According to the terminology of modern psychology, Shen Yuan represents the generalization of the regulatory function of the cerebral cortex. According to the traditional internal terms, Shen Yuan is the master of human life activities.
Shen Yuan is the essence of foreign orders. Without Shen Yuan, foreign orders have no foundation. The misunderstanding of foreign orders in the past has led many people to go astray, seek grass and burn grass, and avoid the world to fix the truth. In fact, temples in past dynasties lived in downtown areas, and their merits were boundless. As for what a foreign country is, I will talk about it again in the article Yu Zhen Tong Jie. I just want to say here that the elixir outside the human body can indeed be repaired. This Dan is not for eating, and its alchemy site is not in vitro or in vivo, but in an empty furnace tripod. This void, of course, refers to the space-time outside the three-dimensional physical space.
Traditionally, there have been many discussions about the Yuan God. According to historical experience, I think it is more practical to say that "nothing is born, it is called Shen Yuan" in Daoshu.
Virtual is the reality of hue.
Virtual is not empty, but real is not real. If we elaborate on it in turn, there are internal and external factors. This inner and outer refers to inner Dan and outer Dan. Inner Dan was made by Jade God, while outer Dan was made in vitro after Yuan God came out of the shell.
The inside and outside become yin and yang, so that the material foundation of emptiness (the Dan of Yuan God) and reality (the Dan of Jade Body) can only be achieved if you and. The moral heart is the guide, and virtue is waiting. If we can follow this, we will achieve great success in the end. The foundation of Dan's cultivation can't be separated from knowing each other as a medical guide. Virtue, to a certain extent, is the root of a person's wisdom. People with shallow roots are still hard to aspire to, let alone practice alchemy. Therefore, virtue is the key to temperature.
