143. There is a chance to dominate the world

Why is it said that provoking an internal fight between Brother Tian is the best way to knock them off the altar?

The so-called brother Tian in history refers to "Brother Tian came down to earth to possess the body". Because brother Tian himself was born locally and was no different from everyone before, suddenly he stood up and called Brother Tian, ​​and there must be a reasonable excuse. Brother Tian is known as the envoy of Emperor Tian and can represent the will of Emperor Tian. This is their authority.

The Emperor of Heaven has the only will, and it is impossible to contradict oneself or go back on his word. But if two or several brothers of Heaven appear at the same time, their opinions are different or even fighting with each other, then who can truly represent the Emperor of Heaven?

I won’t talk about the answer to this question, but fools can draw another conclusion - some of them are certainly unable to represent the Emperor of Heaven. The history of the heavenly kingdom explains this question in this way. Some are not brother Tian’s body and possessed by his body, while others are brother Tian’s body and possessed by his body.

The most dangerous period of "Dissues Brother Tian" in the history of the Kingdom of Heaven was the most turbulent and darker era. I believe that the knowledgeable people represented by Feng Guoxin in the country today are also aware of the so-called Brother Tian.

The historical records of the Heavenly Kingdom clearly record the names and life of the Heavenly Brothers, only Tao Zhengong and Tao Xin. As for the other Heavenly Brothers, they did not even have their names left, this is probably the reason.

The situation is the same for Ding Qi and others. As long as there is a disagreement and internal struggle between them, it means that some of them will definitely not be able to truly represent the Emperor of Heaven. Who is Zhentian Brother, maybe it is not!

Feng Guoxin did not know what identity Zhuang Mengzhou, Shang Ni and others were, where they came from, what their relationship was, and what was their purpose here? According to the facts that had happened, the worst situation he could foresee was the war in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Different brothers of heaven control the camps in the east, west, south, and north, and have authority in their respective territory. However, who is the supreme brother of heaven? The ambition to dominate the world will cause civil wars in the entire heaven. This is the case in history.

In addition to the worst possible, the second result is that Brothers of Heaven dominate one side and regard the camps as kingdoms under their control. This will cause the division of the kingdom of heaven and will not benefit everyone, at least the situation will not be better now.

The last time there is another situation where the nine brothers of heaven are all in the same group. They choose to conspire to control the entire world. In that way, they will become high-ranking "gods" and unite to rule the world. In reality, no matter who has a sacred authority that is "unproveable", it is probably not a good thing for others.

If you want to prevent the three situations from happening, the best way is to provoke an internal struggle between the nine brothers of Heaven. This requires avoiding a situation, which is that all the Tian brothers threaten the civil war among the people of various camps, so you need to create opportunities to gather alone in one place and let the nine people fight on their own to achieve a result.

Therefore, after the nine brothers of Heaven arrived at the camps, Feng Guoxin was so concerned about their gatherings and suggested that Zhuang Mengzhou compete for the position of "the leader of the brothers of Heaven". If a group of ambitious people really came, this was the best test and provocation, and Feng Guoxin could be said to be far-sighted. Zhuang Mengzhou's reaction was to reassure Feng Guoxin, saying that they had no intention of dominating the kingdom of Heaven.

After Zhuang Mengzhou explained the truth clearly, Shang Ni smiled and said, "No wonder you eat, drink, and do not care about other people's business every day, to dispel their doubts?"

Zhuang Mengzhou sighed: "You have also read the history of heaven. If we came to the era of Tao Zhengong or Tao Xin, and there were no Tao Zhengong or Tao Xin in the world, we would probably have to be a brother who made a difference.

The so-called "inaction" and "everything is done" depends on when it is used. It is not that we should leave everything to fate, but that we should let it go. This is a state that is difficult to achieve, but we no longer need to do more here."

Shangni: "That's what you did, but they are still worried."

Zhuang Mengzhou looked at her and said, "If there was an opportunity to dominate the world, would you be moved?"

Shang Ni curled her lips: "Which world is dominant? I'm not interested. It's better to go back and dominate our class if I have the time!"

Zhuang Mengzhou smiled and said, "When you are outside, do you want to dominate the world?"

Shangni: "How is that possible? It's purely a delusion! I'm not an American emperor, I don't have this intention."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "This is probably the problem. You can't dominate the world outside, so you can't even think about it. But it seems possible to be realized here. If someone is hot-headed, maybe he will really think so. If you are not moved, then what about others?"

Shang Ni put away her smile and said in a low tone: "Others? District Mayor Zhu and others will not have this idea. After all, we are just here to travel, and our world is not here... Besides, Fan Yang and Ye Xing are dead, and we don't have that kind of person."

Zhuang Mengzhou sighed: "The position I stand is different, the vision is different, and the ideas are different. This is not our world. But Feng Guoxin doesn't know, and it is not only us, but also the ambitious people of the Kingdom of Heaven. Xian Hao's murder may have other stories, and that person may have instigated Xian Hao to do something privately."

Shang Ni: "There has been peace and tranquility here for three thousand years. Like the legendary Datong world, are there also ambitious people?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Of course there will be, even in the world of Datong, or even the communist society mentioned in the book, whose theory is extremely materially abundant, but there is another desire that cannot satisfy everyone, which is an ambition."

Shang Ni frowned and said, "Mr. Zhuang, what do you think is ambition?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "What I call ambition is a result that some people want. This result requires the entire society to pay the price, but it is destined to be enjoyed by only a few people." After saying this, the topic changed, "Little Nizi, are you interested in the popular sense of success now? Many people like to turn those things in their circle of friends, and there are also a lot of poisonous chicken soup."

Shang Ni quickly shook her head and said, "I've never been interested."

Zhuang Mengzhou asked: "Why?"

Shang Ni replied while thinking, "I can't explain it clearly, it feels like a pyramid scheme. For example, "What is the wealth of XX, you have been abandoned by your peers", "Master xxx, you can earn xxx 10,000 yuan per month", "What should you do before xx years old", "What is the life after xx"... This kind of thing has been spread too much, and I can't even remember the name clearly.

They are promoting a single model of success, and they have to tell you what standards to meet in life are meaningful. And as you said, if the standard of success is defined as such a result, it requires the entire society to pay the price, but it is destined to be enjoyed by only a few people. Then most people in the world should be desperate, and it has defined their life without meaning."

Zhuang Mengzhou nodded with interest and said, "Yes, continue talking, it's better to say some details."

Shang Ni felt a little embarrassed: "As for details, I think about it. Defining power as the only template for success, especially the power brought by wealth, is on the surface a material standard, but actually a spiritual standard. It always implies that as long as you fail to meet this standard, you should feel anxious... Teacher Ding should understand better in this regard."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Don't mention Teacher Ding for now, you can think of it yourself."

Shang Ni: "Actually, I have a problem that I can't understand. For example, a certain boss Ma, I don't deny his success, but I always feel that it is a problem to define his situation as success. If I say that, are so many employees who work for boss Ma considered losers?

Let’s talk about the situation here. If dominating the world is considered a standard for success, then are everyone else in the Kingdom of Heaven all losers and their lives have been denied? What’s the point of such a world? Who does it exist for? Mr. Zhuang, what do you think?”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "You may not understand why there are those who have successfully learned chicken soup and only promoted such a successful model. Many people actually do not understand the thinking logic behind it. It is not just as simple as being eager for quick success.

Always telling people how to be successful, not to make everyone the same successful person, but it is impossible. But it can spread a subconscious mind and make people recognize the self-evident status of the so-called successful persons.

Some people have set a standard that defines that certain talents are successful people and deserve to be sought after and respect. What they say and do represents the standard of success in life, and it is natural. Then they should not be questioned, they should have everything, because you also want to be someone like them..."

Shangni: "I understand a little, but I feel that your words are a little confused."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "It's indeed a bit confusing. It's not good to say it too clearly. Let's talk about the history of heaven. We shouted the slogan of benefiting the world, but did things that only we can dominate the world... It is precisely because of too many experiences and lessons that we have paid so much that we can have today's Datong world.

But no matter what world it is, it is inevitable to have a few ambitions, even if it’s just daydreaming, think about it? The reality here makes it impossible for them to realize that ambition, but when we come, the situation may change, and things may be possible, at least some people will think so."

Shang Ni looked at the "History of Heaven" on the table and said, "History is really important!"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "History is of course important! Some people always think that history and other knowledge are meaningless. They only need to understand the present and future, and there is no need to know the past.

But history is the retention of the wisdom of countless generations, the summary of countless experiences and lessons. And there are too many lessons that can be obtained at a price that contemporary people can no longer bear."

Shang Ni: "Let's talk about success, and say, in this kingdom of heaven, how can a real personal success be under the premise of social success?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Take the heaven and earth, grasp the yin and yang, breathe essence, and guard the spirit independently."

Shang Ni: "What you said is too mysterious! Can you speak vernacular?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "The vernacular is actually simple, and it may be more appropriate to ask Teacher Ding. The highest standard for personal pursuit in psychology is to ultimately achieve self-realization. What kind of world do you want, how to face this world, and do you have this world? It is both realistic and transcendent.

Think about it carefully, what is the purpose of Teacher Ding's creation of Fangwai's secret technique?"

Shang Ni's brows were tighter: "You are not vernacular enough! According to this statement, can people not eat, drink, or work hard, as long as they are mentally satisfied, can they realize themselves?"

Zhuang Mengzhou smiled helplessly and said, "Who said that Teacher Ding doesn't eat, drink, and doesn't work hard? I understand his life experience and have harder people! He is also in the hospital class and is also pursuing success with social significance.

Today I am talking about this. I am not trying to encourage you not to strive for success in reality after going out. You should dominate your class and dominate your class. You just need to see the reality clearly and understand what self-realization is.

For example, people in this world must first make their lives rich and enjoy the peace of the world, and then have more understanding of the world and the meaning of life, and find their true selves. In that way, who can say that they don’t work hard and fail?”

Shang Ni: "You are still not clear enough! What is self-realization and how can you find your true self?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Give an example. What if it was a novel or a story, the story had such a world, and there was a chance to dominate the world, but the protagonist failed or did not dominate the world, what would happen?"

Shang Ni: "Someone will scold the protagonist, either stupid or stupid. In short, it's because he is unhappy."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "But in reality, there is someone around you who has no or cannot dominate the world. Would you feel unhappy about him? Of course not! Why is this?"

Shang Ni: "This is different. Watching the story will bring the protagonist into the sense of empathy, like experiencing another life, which is the function of learning the work. Some people want to dominate the world in the story, how can they not let him succeed?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "You are right, this metaphor can answer the question just now! Who defines the protagonist? Is it the author? That's just a perspective. If you change the perspective, everyone will be their own protagonist.

Whether from the perspective of psychology or philosophy, people have two selves. The first one is the person you want to be, and that is the ideal selves; the second one is the person you can become, and that is the real selves.

Some people think that if a is b, he can become the person he wants to be, which is the success of his life, and that's what he can say. But some people take it for granted that this is finding oneself and finally completing self-realization..."

Shang Ni interrupted, “Isn’t it?”

Zhuang Mengzhou: "Of course not! If someone wants to dominate the world, but really dominate the world, is he accomplished self-realization? In other words, if someone just wants to eat and wait for death, but really wants to eat and wait for death, is he also accomplished self-realization?

The real standard is, if a is another person and b is yourself, would you like to be with him for life? There may not be such another self in the real world; but in the spiritual world, you must be inseparable from him.

If someone wants to have the power to kill everything, anyone will obey his will; or if he has the ability to sleep with everything, everyone will obey his will. But he cannot really be with such a self, either being killed by another self or being erased from his self-consciousness early.

In your own world, the other self you want to be with and can be with is the self that everyone wants to find. This is not about finding a partner! Under this premise, if you can eventually become such a person, you will have achieved self-realization.

If you cannot achieve this premise, no matter how successful you do it according to the standards you think, you will never be able to resolve internal conflicts. And the more successful you look, the more you deny yourself.

Let me give you another example. For example, if someone scolds corrupt officials and profiteers every day, but if he has the chance, he actually wants to be a bigger corrupt official and a more successful profiteer, as long as he is not discovered by others.

Self-realization is not without cost. I hope that everything that appears in your world and does not appear, you have to work hard. And such efforts are the true cultivation and practice of everyone.”

Shang Ni blinked her eyes and said, "I understand what Feng Guoxin is doing!"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "After talking for so long, you finally understand?"

Shang Ni: "I have one last question, not what is here, but the toxic chicken soup for success just mentioned. You said that some people promote that single standard of success is actually establishing the so-called position that successful people want.

If they achieve their goal, most people are destined to be unable to achieve self-realization according to such standards, and even find themselves impossible. They will inevitably feel stress and anxiety, and conflicts will become more and more serious. How to resolve them?"

Zhuang Mengzhou: "This is a dead knot that cannot be truly solved. But people's attention can be diverted, and contradictions can also be diverted, such as ethnic issues, race issues, religious issues and even sexual orientation issues... If it really doesn't work, it will be diverted to the created interests, such as entertainment or entertainment until death."

Shangni: "You eat, drink, and do not care about other people's business every day, but you see a lot of things."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "I'm giving you a few words by the way. There are many things you can't always understand. Otherwise, how can you be the uncle of your peers? As for Lao Tan and the others, I don't need to say more."

Upon hearing this, Shang Ni smiled happily again: "Yes, Bi Xuecheng, Meng Huiyu, Ye Yanxing and I are all juniors, but I am already a teacher uncle! But your lectures seem to be less easy to understand than Teacher Ding."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "If you don't talk about this, let's continue to study dried zither fish."

Shangni: "You'll drink this cup of gentian tea, why don't it get cold."

There was a carved bamboo cup in front of Zhuang Mengzhou. The water did not make tea leaves, but five dried zither fish were placed. When the boiling water just washed down, the dried zither fish was churning in the cup with the flow of the water, gradually turning into a lifelike appearance.

Zhuang Mengzhou drank the cup of tea and chewed the dried fish, nodded and said, "It's really good, unique... Little girl, what did this dried fish remind you of?"

Shang Ni: "The yaozhu and shiitake mushrooms are all dried and then released, and the taste is better if fresh."

Zhuang Mengzhou: "There is no MSG here. Dried qinyu can be used as natural MSG. I see that they like to add a few pieces to improve freshness when making soup."

Ding Qi and the four masters and apprentices had a soup for dinner that day, including egg flowers, tender edamame, and bamboo shoots. They dripped a few drops of pumpkin seed oil and also put a small handful of dried zither fish in seasoning. They finally ate the legendary dried zither fish, which is produced in the waters here. They are dried with a process that has been passed down for thousands of years. The soup can be added to improve freshness.

Life is so comfortable. Local people make delicious food for several brothers in different ways. It is very thoughtful to read the recipes for each meal, and all daily necessities are the best.

Ding Qi said during a meal: "My unintentional actions last night shocked the people of all villages and communities. We are now regarded as gods by the locals. But who are we, we must know what we can do and what we cannot do, what do you think?"
