Chapter 1270 Spiritual Power
,
)
Since the Tang Dynasty, Chinese martial arts began to be combined with metaphysics, so it was reborn and created a special martial arts school that was transcendent from the world.
It is not just about killing people, but about the sublimation of life and spirituality. This is also the uniqueness of Chinese martial arts.
The martial arts of any nation and civilization originated from the human need for killing and are a skill of struggle. But only Chinese martial arts have risen to the level of martial arts and become a kind of "Tao" to promote oneself. Smart Factory 1270
However, there is still a difference between a warrior and a cultivator. In terms of pure lethality, a cultivator may not be stronger than a warrior. Even a Taoist priest with a rare Taoist ritual, he may not be able to survive when he meets a congenital martial arts master who has achieved great fetal breathing skills.
But as mentioned earlier, martial arts is not martial arts, and one cannot simply judge strength by “lethality”, but must depend on who has a higher level of life.
After all, martial arts is still "martial arts", which is the way to kill and stop the sword. It focuses on strengthening the body, but ignores the mind.
Cultivators focus more on the inner exploration of spiritual power than their bodies. It is not that Xuanmen practitioners do not pay attention to physical exercise, but that they do not regard physical strengthening as their main purpose, but only as the basis.
It’s like studying alone, both elementary and junior high school are trying to learn to read and write. When you go to college or even become a master’s or doctoral student, will you still use the primary and junior high school textbooks to review them over and over again?
The difference is here. The practitioner regards the body as the basis and basically meets the standards, and then turns it into practicing the method of the mind, which leads to many techniques for controlling energy, which is "spells".
The warriors focus on their bodies and regard the materialized body as the only one. Even if they explore the mind, they only use the power of the mind as an auxiliary, rather than exploring the use of energy by the mind like cultivators. Therefore, warriors basically cannot master "spells" and only know how to fight with the hands.
Of course, there are also people who take into account both, that is, the "Sword Warrior" and "Sword Immortal" that have gradually flourished since the Tang Dynasty. They not only have the understanding and use of energy, but also pay attention to physical improvement.
"Sword Warrior" can emit "sword energy" similar to "spell" effects. Although the method of using energy is very simple and crude, it has become a simple swordsman after all.
"Sword Immortal" is even more magical. It can fly with its spiritual power, an ancient version of tracking missiles.
However, whether it is a swordsman or a sword immortal, they are not real cultivators after all. They have strengthened their body's potential and mastered the skills of controlling energy in the mind. But in fact, they are not focused on improving the essence of spirituality like real cultivators.
Therefore, the lifespan of the sword immortal is only longer than that of ordinary people, but he is not truly immortal.
For example, Zhang Sanfeng from the Song Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty was the most famous sword immortal. He did not create Tai Chi, but his sword technique was indeed first-class and powerful, and was called the "old sword immortal" by people at that time.
Now, there is another road in front of Lian Feiyi, and hesitated how to choose in the future.
The more you know, the harder it is to choose, because there is always no best in both worlds in the world. Especially this life-improving model, you can basically only choose one of them, and it is difficult to take into account all of them.
However, from Kong Lian's words, Lian Feiyi also saw a completely different development path from martial arts, that is, spiritual science.
The East calls it metaphysics, among which Taoist theories are the most comprehensive, profound and unique, so they are generally considered Taoism. With the development of the times, Western mysticism has called this knowledge spiritualism.
However, unlike Eastern metaphysics, this kind of spiritual science originating from the West lacks practical training methods. In other words, during the long Middle Ages, a large number of "magics" and "wizards" who were considered evil were burned to death by the Roman Catholic Church as heresy, and the books were destroyed and thus lost.
Similar to fetal breathing techniques, Indian yoga also has it. It also abandons the lung breathing method that is too low-efficiency and changes it to other breathing methods that can stimulate the body's potential. Smart Factory 1270
Lian Feiyi was very interested in spiritual science because this theory originated in modern times and was similar to this era in culture. The words were also quite straightforward and did not have to be written in the form of text codes.
Because modern human society advocates freedom of thought, although "scientism" is popular, it cannot openly eliminate or destroy other schools.
Therefore, Western spiritual science will continue to exist, accumulate experience, and gradually form more systematic and theoretical knowledge until one day it can compete with "scientism".
It is very difficult to translate a large number of ancient classics in the East. And like spiritual science, metaphysics has also been neglected by the people in society and has been abandoned.
Psychology is the study of the mind. As a term and category, it was popular in the 19th century. In recent decades, it has gradually been replaced by the word "parapsychology".
Psychology is a discipline that studies some spiritual phenomena that occur in human life beyond the norm and cannot be explained by scientific knowledge. It is also called spiritual research.
Psychology first appeared in Britain and the United States in the late 19th century, and has since become popular in Europe. It has been widely called "parapsychology" since the 1930s.
It roughly divides its research objects into two categories: one is the supernatural phenomenon in cognitive aspects of organisms, namely "super sensory perception".
Supersensory perception refers to the ability to obtain certain external information without using normal sensory channels, mainly including mind transmission and remote vision (also known as clairvoyance).
Mind actuation refers to the ability to move or change position without having to contact with things.
Since the 1920s, this work has begun to shift from qualitative research to quantitative research. His main researchers include Ryin from Duke University in the United States, who collected about 15,000 examples and developed some experimental materials, such as Zener cards and research methods, in order to control and accurately measure observations.
Ryin also founded the Journal of Parapsychology to explain his views.
In fact, extraordinary phenomena of human body activities occur from time to time in China. For example, children use their ears to recognize words. The phenomenon similar to the actuation of the mind in Qigong is collectively called "special abilities of the human body". Society has paid attention to such phenomena and issues, but in the end they are just topics of conversation after dinner.
Not many people will regard this phenomenon as a revelation of the essence of life, and will not seek the power of the soul because of this. Compared with superpowers, most people care more about their lives, such as feelings, wealth, status and power.
But this does not mean that everyone is in this mode of the spiritual power in life.
There are still some people who try to use normative scientific methods such as physics to prove the objective reality of their existence. For example, now, the Ancient Chinese Society has established a relevant research group to study the power of the mind in combination with quantum theory and magnetization force fields.
But to date, there is no acceptable evidence for this ability to give a satisfactory explanation to the scientific community.
This is also impossible. The power of the mind is your own. You cannot give it to others like technical achievements. This will naturally not be recognized and you will think that you are using "magic tricks" to deceive people.
The so-called "scientific recognition" means that you have acquired some kind of knowledge through discovery and research, and this kind of knowledge must be done by others to be considered to be real.
But spiritual science involves superpower phenomena that cannot be transmitted in this way.
Therefore, the mainstream scientific community is unwilling to admit it, and official institutions have been concealing and downplaying such individual events to maintain the existing political and economic order.
In fact, psychology belongs to a kind of science to be determined. It just finds out what science cannot explain temporarily and treats it in a suspended manner. Smart Factory 1270
It can even be said that there is no basis to provide. Psychology does not conduct a profound scientific analysis of human psychology like psychology, but rather provides some so-called specific explanations of human beings.
Moreover, psychology is closely related to imagery such as divination, which is contrary to the value ideas advocated by "scientism". Therefore, psychology has never been accepted by modern science and is free from the marginal areas of academics.
In 1966, Josie Siva of the United States founded the spiritual arts course and was recognized by the world.
Then, in this era, thanks to the funding and help of Magic Claw Company, in 1970, Josie Siva successfully developed the second set of courses, which went straight to the topic - the Siva Superconscious ESP system, which directly helped people develop these four major ESP abilities: touch perception, remote viewing, subjective communication and even foresight.
This set of courses is taught in 30 languages in 111 countries around the world. Hundreds of millions of students have proved their effectiveness. It takes only 3 days and 15 minutes of training every day to effectively use this ability, so it is included in the field of science.
It is worth mentioning that through an investment of 2 million US dollars and years of practice, Siva gave a reasonable explanation: the scientific definition of esp is: effective induction projection, the reason is very simple, the five senses of the left brain are used to solve problems at the realistic level.
The five senses of the right brain are not restricted by time and space, because the projection of consciousness is not restricted by time and space, and are used to solve problems at the spiritual level and to help the left brain.
However, this course was included in other disciplines by opponents of parapsychology, and the scientists' style was almost the same as the Roman Catholic Church. However, they could not send opponents to the stake, at least not in foreign countries.
If it was the Soviet Union or a dynasty in the original time and space, it would be hard to say.
Siva has made it clear that this is an innate ability for people to argue about.
The research content of psychology can basically be divided into two categories, namely supersensory perception and mental actuation.
Supersensory perception refers to the ability to obtain certain external information without the help of normal sensory channels, mainly including mind transmission and remote vision, which is usually called clairvoyance.
The former means that one's thoughts and ideas can be transmitted to another person far away without passing through any known medium, ignoring the barriers of space, such as the transmission of thinking.
The latter refers to having special perception of events or things that cannot be seen, such as knowing what happens from a distance, distinguishing the color of the skin, etc.
Mind activation refers to the ability to move or change position without having to contact with things, such as using thoughts to displace objects or change their active state.
In addition, there are so-called foresight and after-knowledge, which means that you can obtain information about future or past events without the constraints of time and space only by the human body itself.
Psychology is also widely associated with all mysteries that cannot be perfectly explained by science. Its research ideas originated from spiritualism, which was born as a view contrary to Darwin's materialism of natural selection.
In the 19th century, some witnessed the decay of religion and believed in Christian concepts about the existence of life after death, as well as heaven and hell, believing that spiritual phenomena are not just forms of movement of life matter.
They began to investigate some phenomena such as information transmission and the effect of field forces that cannot be explained and cannot be directly observed. First, in 1882, the Spirit Research Society was established in London, England. The first chairman was H. Sidwick, a researcher at Trinity College, Cambridge University.
The association has six committees to engage in investigations and research on phenomena such as thought transmission. The Spiritual Research Society was also established in the United States in 1885. The first attempt to conduct experimental research on parapsychological phenomena in the United States was J.E. Kuffer of Stanford University. His conclusions believed that it could not support the hypothesis about the transmission of mind.
Since the 1930s, this work has begun to shift from qualitative research to quantitative research. The main researchers include Ryin from Duke University in the United States.
After World War II, psychology further developed in research methods, improved in randomization, control experimental conditions and automatic detection devices, and automatic control of experiments were used to automatically control the experiments and analyze the results.
In addition, experiments conducted at the subconscious level and under the conditions of sensory deprivation, as well as research on incorporating sleep and dreams, have also been carried out, and the study of psychology has been active for a while.
It was not until 1988 that the American Academy of Sciences, the Academy of Engineering Sciences and the Institute of Medicine jointly established a special committee to evaluate psychology and published a report that tends to be negative.
After October of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Spirit Research Committee was established in 1924. The representative figure was L.L. Vasilev, who was responsible for the research on remote hypnosis.
Later, under the centralized Soviet social system, the transmission of mind was considered anti-social and impossible things, and it was prohibited to report it in the Soviet Union.
However, after the fall of the Soviet Union, starting from the 1950s, the successful restoration of the Kingdom of Russia with the help of the Chinese Federation. The successor of the Tsar was open to the research of psychology, and developed into a very active field and once tried to apply it to the military field.
In February 1965, the first national discussion on human special abilities was held in Shanghai.
Since then, human body special abilities research associations have been established in various places. Some people in the scientific and technological community have advocated the study of human body's special abilities, believing that it has an inherent connection with qigong and traditional Chinese medicine theory, and tried to use normative scientific methods such as physics to prove the objective reality of its existence.
However, due to technical and theoretical limitations, these folk enthusiasts who did not receive enough support only made a guest appearance and did not draw any useful conclusions.
They believe that this is a major research topic in science and technology, but a considerable number of academics also disagree with this, and many research reports have made negative analysis of the specific abilities of the human body with parapsychological phenomena.
As far as the study of psychology or human specific abilities itself is concerned, although numerous examples and experiments have been cited to try to prove the existence of parapsychological phenomena, there is still no acceptable evidence for this ability to provide a satisfactory explanation for the scientific community.
In addition, the emergence of special abilities is often accidental, elusive, and incompatible with recognized scientific knowledge. Except for a few secret organizations like the ancient Chinese Society, it is difficult for folk enthusiast groups to develop on this path.
After all, it is not easy to accumulate knowledge. It lacks inheritance and does not have enough material conditions to conduct special research. Of course, it can only linger outside the gate and it is difficult to enter the house.
Since the 1930s, Western spiritual research has shifted from qualitative research to quantitative research. Duke University in North Carolina, USA, established the "Super Psychology Institute" under the advocacy of Rein.
Ryin also created a series of parapsychological terms in the book "Super Sensory Perception" and applied statistical techniques to spiritual research. Through his book, he promoted and incited not only to attract the attention of the scientific community, but also to the public.
During World War II, Hitler and Goebbels used their psychology to publicly encourage astrology to use astrology to predict the end of the war that would be beneficial to them in order to create public opinion for fascist rule.
This practice of interfering in academic research with political needs was naturally strongly protested by opponents of psychology and was used as an excuse to attack "feudal superstition".
Despite this, psychology has attracted more and more attention in the West.
In 1957, the international professional organization "International Psychological Association" was established in the United States. In 1969, the society became an affiliated society of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and more and more universities began to propose research directions and research topics in psychology.
According to incomplete statistics, by the early 1970s, that is, now, more than 240 institutes and societies had been established in more than 30 countries around the world, many of which were unifiedly led by the "International Parapsychological Association" based in New York.
Many countries have published journals specifically, publishing academic papers on psychology and publishing news about the discussion on psychology. In 1968, India also awarded the first psychological researcher a degree of "Master of Parapsychology".
The Huaxia Federation also attaches great importance to spiritual research. In China, there are more than 20 government-sponsored spiritual research institutes and research centers engaged in specialized research. They call this special telepathic phenomenon "brain wave sensing."
This is to believe that the human brain can convey information like a radio station. Unlike the West, Chinese psychological researchers recognize existing phenomena and choose people with general intelligence as experimental subjects and train them.
It is obvious that being keen on the research of spiritual science cannot be compared with ignorance and superstition. Although the government is still suppressing it, it does not mean that the country has given up on this discipline, but has still made effective progress in the construction of spiritual science.
