Chapter 2854 On Cause and Effect (II)

Dao Tianji smiled and said: "The most effective way to understand the Great Path of Cause and Effect is actually to understand cause and effect. When we follow the development process of everything and understand some causal relationships, our practice of the Great Path of Cause and Effect will inevitably Able to accumulate some practice experience.”

I don’t understand the cause and effect of practice, but I understand the method of practice.

Luo Pengfei was a person who couldn't hold back his words. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Niubi, your method is probably the method of building a tower by accumulating sand, right?"

Dao Tianji nodded and said: "Yes, through analysis, we can identify the causes and consequences of many things, and find some common points and patterns. As long as we find the correct causal relationship, we will naturally gain a lot of insights into the cause and effect. ”

This is indeed a well-established method of cultivation. Sun Hao couldn't help but nodded slightly, but immediately, Sun Hao asked again: "Fellow Taoist, since you have a very clear method of cultivation, why did your enlightenment fail so much back then?" So difficult?"

Dao Tianji's face straightened up and he said loudly: "Chenxiang, you enlightened very quickly, so you rarely realize the difficulty of enlightenment. Don't underestimate the difficulty of enlightenment. Take the Avenue of Cause and Effect as an example. It's good to know the art of cultivation. , however, the process of practice is also full of uncertain factors..."

Dao Tianji has a master-disciple relationship with Sun Hao. After entering the role at this time, he also spoke righteously and did not hide anything at all. He told everything about his cultivation experience. After hearing Dao Tianji's explanation, Sun Hao gradually understood the cultivation of the cause and effect. difficulties.

Practicing the path of cause and effect seems to allow you to accumulate practice experience by understanding cause and effect, and you can build a tower with sand. However, the biggest feature of this practice is that you must understand the correct cause and effect and see through something. Only when there is a true causal relationship can we gain something from it, otherwise, we will gain nothing.

Is it so easy to understand the cause and effect of something?

Cause and effect are intangible and are not something that can be seen or touched like time and space. How can we perceive it?

There is no other way except for monks to use their knowledge of the world to perceive and judge based on the direction of things.

Among the causal relationships, the most difficult thing to understand and grasp is often the degree of cause and effect.

A large number of causes and effects are actually cyclical. The monks understand and understand, and finally become confused and confused. In the end, there are things that they don't understand. Therefore, it is really difficult to accurately understand a cause and effect.

Otherwise, with Dao Tianji's cultivation qualifications at that time, he would not have encountered bottlenecks. In the end, in pursuit of a breakthrough, he would have taken risks and the path of life and death would have disappeared.

Speaking of the difficulty of understanding cause and effect, Dao Tianji felt sad and gave Sun Hao an example, which also made Sun Hao dumbfounded.

Dao Tianji said leisurely: "There are some butterflies in the Agarwood Heavenly Palace. One day, a butterfly flapped its wings. This is a cause, but when we follow this cause to find the final result..."

As Dao Tianji spoke, he located a butterfly in the Agarwood Heavenly Palace, caught the moment when the butterfly flapped its wings, followed the airflow after the butterfly flapped its wings, and began to explore the cause and effect relationship.

Sun Hao and Luo Pengfei observed without knowing what they meant.

Ten days later, Sun Hao and Luo Pengfei suddenly discovered that the air flow generated by the butterfly flapping its wings became larger and larger under various different and systematic conditions. At some point, this air flow came to Gu Yun's body. On the Immortal Immortal Island, it turned into a huge tornado, blowing earth-shatteringly. It was about to destroy a large area of ​​Gu Yun's medicinal fields. Gu Yun appeared in time and used his methods to destroy the tornado in mid-air.

After seeing the whole process, Luo Pengfei said in amazement, it feels so strange that when a butterfly flaps its wings, it turns into a tornado. In the end, this butterfly actually had a cause and effect with Gu Yun. If If Gu Yun is not careful, wouldn't his wings destroy many elixirs?

Dao Tianji said leisurely: "Well, this is a strange cause and effect. I call it the butterfly effect. Very small changes in the initial conditions will cause extremely huge differences in its future state after continuous amplification. So, my conclusion That is, some small things can be confused, but some small things, if magnified, are very important to an organization and a country.”

Butterfly effect? Sun Hao was deep in thought. After a long time, Sun Hao asked softly: "So, fellow Taoist, do you know? Why does the butterfly flap its wings and go to Gu Yun's medicine field? Is there any other cause and effect?"

Dao Tianji smiled slightly and said: "This is natural. Any action cannot escape the theory of cause and effect. However, if you want to trace why the butterfly's wings flap like this, it will probably involve the cause and effect of the butterfly's previous life. It is possible that the butterfly It was also a butterfly in the last life. It was destroyed by Gu Yun in Gu Yun's medicine field. In this life, it keeps flapping its wings towards his medicine field. Or maybe it was a butterfly refined by Gu Yun in the previous life. It’s really hard to tell the cause and effect of this elixir..."

After listening to Dao Tianji's explanation, Sun Hao suddenly understood the difficulty of understanding cause and effect. Cause and effect are everywhere. Even a small butterfly can cause so many causes and effects. This The doorway in the middle is too mysterious.

According to Dao Tianji's explanation, he saw a butterfly flapping its wings, which eventually formed a tornado. The butterfly flapping its wings was the cause, and the tornado was the effect.

This is a causal relationship, and this causal relationship can end here. Then I have completed my understanding of the causal relationship. If I want to continue to pursue this deeper causal relationship, I will continue to pursue why the butterfly If you want to flap your wings towards Gu Yun, you have to go back to more distant time and space to perceive the cause and effect of the past.

The difficulty in between is infinite.

Dao Tianji's words also made Sun Hao suddenly understand a huge difficulty in understanding cause and effect, that is, the relationship between different times. Sometimes, the cause happened in the past, and he could only see the effect. Then, the cause in the past, You need to verify it yourself.

If you can't prove it, then you won't be able to accurately judge why the current result is born.

The difference in time and space is undoubtedly an important obstacle to Dao Tianji's understanding of cause and effect.

Thinking of this, Sun Hao's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he smiled and said to Dao Tianji: "This cultivation method of fellow Taoist, combined with my time and space avenue, may have better results. Thank you, fellow Taoist, for teaching me."

When Dao Tianji heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed: "Yes, yes, Chenxiang has the time-space avenue. It can reverse time and space for a certain period of time. Run back to see the cause, and then come back to see the result. There is no doubt that if you participate The possibility of understanding cause and effect is much greater than mine, hahaha, so that’s it, that’s it, hahaha, I understand, I understand…”

Luo Pengfei asked curiously from the side: "What do you understand?"

Dao Tianji rolled his eyes: "Don't say it, don't say it, the secret can't be leaked."

Luo Pengfei started to roll up his sleeves: "If you don't fight for three days, are you itchy? Hurry and tell me what it is, otherwise, I will pester you to the end of the world..."

Sun Hao said with a smile on the side: "Old devil, fellow Taoist Tianji understands that all the avenues in the virtual world are complementary to each other. The avenue of time and space is equivalent to a powerful avenue in front of the avenue of cause and effect. Once you understand it, Time and space are extremely conducive to understanding cause and effect. Fellow Taoist Tianji also understands the reason why he could not make rapid progress in the past. Compared with fellow Taoist Tianji, I have a natural advantage in practicing the path of cause and effect. "

Luo Pengfei's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "You can have this, hahaha, why can't I say it out loud? It turns out it's because I'm far inferior to you."

Dao Tianji shrugged and made no excuse. Indeed, a huge problem in his practice back then had a much smaller impact on Sun Hao. From this, we can also see the importance of the foundation of practice.

Smiling faintly, Dao Tianji straightened his expression and said: "In addition to the time difference in practicing the way of cause and effect, there is also a huge difficulty, which is to grasp the degree between chance and cause and effect... "

This is another proposition that Sun Hao feels is very obscure and difficult to understand. Buddhists often say that if you sow melons, you will get melons, and if you sow beans, you will get beans. This is indeed the general direction of cause and effect. However, if you sow the same melons, some melons will be different. Some melons are small, some are sweet, some are bland...
