"On Guo Zi's" Nature "

There was a man named Nan in the State of Chu, who was also said to be a virtuous Taoist. One day, Qi sat quietly at home dealing with a case. He stayed in his abdomen, looked up at the sky and breathed. In a short time, he swept away all kinds of distractions and gradually forgot all the characteristics, reaching the situation that "heaven and earth coexist with me, and everything is one with me". Qi Gong of South Guo Zi sat quietly alone, leaving his disciple Yan Chengzi hanging his hands and standing low. An hour passed, and the apprentice saw that Mr. Wang was still as motionless as wood. Although his eyes were open, he stared and didn't even turn his eyes. It seems that his soul has long been out of body experience, and he has probably played in the Qionglou Yuyu in heaven, leaving only a skin on earth-is it heatstroke or senile stroke? In short, the situation is a bit strange and scary. To be on the safe side, Yan Chengzi raised his head and said in a high voice, "Sir, what's wrong with you today?" Is it uncomfortable? Why did you sit still for a long time? Should you sit up and look like a dead piece of wood instead of a pool of ashes? My disciples have seen someone sit in meditation before, but I have never seen him forced to sit in meditation like your husband. "

I heard that, Guo Zi first rolled his eyes, then raised his hand and stretched himself, waking up from a high degree of selflessness like a sudden clay idol. Guo Zi smiled and said, "Good question, you boy! I have been practicing meditation for many years, but I don't know how it works today. The next qi in the abdomen is boiling and boiling, circulating, dredging the blood vessels, seemingly realizing something, and the spring is harmonious, so that the old lady forgets the world and human feelings in her elegant body and mind and blends with everything in the world.

"This kind of state is not easy to achieve for many years, and ordinary people can understand it. Your boy said that I was surprised when I was sitting quietly in a different way. It's no wonder, just like you only heard the voice of people and didn't hear the voice of the earth, or you only heard the voice of the earth and didn't hear the voice of nature. " Just now, Mr. Wang was sitting, and his disciples were just standing, while Yan was bored to death. He is preparing to listen to something new to amuse himself. Hearing this, he quickly picked up the phone and asked:

"Sir, then what is the sound of nature? The boy is very idle and wants to learn more. Please tell me, sir! " Now meditation in Guo Zi was interrupted by disciples halfway, and I couldn't calm down for a while, so I cleared my throat and simply said:

"People live in the world and don't breathe, so nature is the same. The breath of nature is what we usually call' wind'. If this wind is not blown, it will be terrible if it blows. When it blows, it will make thousands of holes in the sound of nature. Didn't you hear the howling wind?

"That deep valley is like a big hole; That thousand-year-old tree is a hundred yards long, and its trunk is full of potholes, some like big noses, some like crooked mouths, some like pointed ears, some like square holes on girders, some like teacups, some like stone mortars, some like deep pools, and some like shallow pits. When the wind blows, the sounds from these caves are all kinds of strange, as fierce as the sea rushing, as sharp as an arrow whistling, some like cursing, some like shortness of breath, some like screaming for help, some like wailing, and some like laughing; Some of them are faint and deep, like strange sounds in a canyon, and some are sad and sad, like the sobs of a widowed woman. In short, one person knows how to ring, and 10,000 people know how to respond. A small wind is blowing, and a big wind is blowing, which is very nice, just like a band in the palace playing in unison. Even after the gale, if you listen carefully, the vegetation in the mountains is still rustling. " Yan suddenly enlighted at the moment and said, "This boy understands now. The so-called' earth sound' is the sound made by holes, pits and wooden holes in nature; As for' human voice', I also know that it is the sound that people blow out with bamboo flutes and pipes. Excuse me, sir, what is Scorpio? "

Wan smiled and explained:

"Teana? You don't know? In this way, you are three points smart and seven points confused! You know, in the final analysis, people and the ground are also a natural state. Is Scorpio independent? In fact, nature is the collective name of human beings and the earth. Who makes all kinds of holes in nature make sounds? Do you know how to make your own voice? Isn't it the' wind' between heaven and earth? Isn't this' nature'? Haha, you are smart and confused! "

[Fill in a few words]

In ancient times, Qi Xuanwang, the monarch of Qi, liked music, especially listening to the flute. He has 300 musicians who are good at playing the flute. Qi Xuanwang likes to be lively and ostentatious, and always wants to show the majesty of the monarch in front of people, so every time he listens to the flute, he always asks the 300 people to play for him.

A Chu Shi native from the South China, known as Mr. South China, heard about Qi Xuanwang's hobby and thought it was a good opportunity to make money. He ran to Qi Xuanwang and boasted, "Your Majesty, I am a famous musician. No one who has heard me play the flute is unmoved. Even birds and animals can dance and flowers will tremble with the beat. I would like to dedicate my stunt to your majesty. " Qi Xuanwang listened happily, accepted him happily without investigation, and put him in the blowing team of 300 people.

After that, Chu Shi from the south took the 300 people to Qi Xuanwang to perform an ensemble. Like others, he was very proud of his generous salary and remuneration.

As a matter of fact, Chu Shi in the south told a big lie, and he wouldn't screw things up at all. Every time he goes on stage, Chu Shi from the south is mixed in the team with a shovel. When people shake their bodies, he also shakes their bodies. Others shook their heads, and he shook his head. His face pretended to be emotional and forgot me. It looked like someone else. He played hard, but he really didn't see any flaws. Chu Shi in the south lived by cheating day after day and got his salary for nothing.

But it didn't last long. A few years later, the ensemble lover died, and his son, King Qi, succeeded to the throne. King Qi also likes to play, but unlike Qi Xuanwang, he thinks it's too noisy for 300 people to play together, so he might as well play alone. So the King of Qi ordered the 300 people to practice hard and get ready. He will let these 300 people take turns blowing one by one. When the musicians know the order, they all practice actively and want to show their skills. Only Chu Shi, a fiddler from the South, was as anxious as a cat on hot bricks. After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't go on this time, so he had to pack up and run away overnight.

An ignorant person who lives by cheating like Chu Shi in the south can cheat for a while, but not for a lifetime. What is false is false, and eventually it can't escape the test of practice and is exposed and disguised. The only way for us to succeed is to study hard. Only by practicing a perfect real skill can we stand all tests.
