Chapter 1646 Who Am I
"Transcend yourself..."
Gu Qingfeng murmured these four words, pondered for a moment, and then asked: "How to transcend yourself."
The old monk did not answer and asked instead: "Does the ancient layman really want to transcend himself?"
"certainly."
"I ask again, does the ancient layman really want to transcend himself?"
"certainly."
"Does the ancient layman really want to transcend himself?"
"certainly."
The old monk asked Gu Qingfeng three times in a row whether he really wanted to transcend himself, and Gu Qingfeng answered "Of course" without hesitation every time.
"No! I feel that the ancient layman doesn't want to transcend himself at all."
"That's just how you feel. I feel like I want to transcend myself."
This time the old monk didn't speak again. After the silence, Gu Qingfeng said again: "You don't care whether I think it or not. I would like to ask you how to transcend yourself?"
“If you want to transcend yourself, you must first recognize yourself.”
"How do you know yourself?"
The old monk asked again: "Does the ancient layman really want to know himself clearly?"
"certainly."
"Does the ancient layman really want to know himself?"
"certainly."
The old monk asked Gu Qingfeng three times in a row if he wanted to know himself, but Gu Qingfeng still answered of course three times.
"No! Not only does the ancient layman not want to transcend himself, he also doesn't want to recognize himself clearly."
"You are not me, how can you know what I am thinking."
"I can feel it."
"Really..." Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, "That's just your feeling. Unfortunately, you are not me."
"Ancient layman." The voice of the old monk came, still like the sound of a bell from the ancient times, coming from the ancient times, ancient times, and ancient times, and said: "Who am I?"
"Who are you?" Gu Qingfeng was confused and replied: "Aren't you an old monk?"
The old monk asked again: "Me! Who! Who!"
"Nonsense! It's you!"
The old monk asked for the third time: "I! Who! Who!"
"You didn't tell me who you are." Gu Qingfeng said, "How do I know who you are!"
The old monk asked again: "That ancient layman, do you know who you are?"
"Of course I know."
"Who are you?"
"I am me! I am Gu Qingfeng."
"No! I'm not asking about the name. The name is just a code name. You can call me Gu Qingfeng, I can also call you Gu Qingfeng, and anyone can call me Gu Qingfeng."
"Then you are asking me who I am. If you are not asking for my name, what is it?"
"What I'm asking is, besides your name, who are you?"
Apart from your name, who are you?
This question is really hard to answer.
At least, Gu Qingfeng at this moment didn't know how to answer this question.
"I will ask the ancient layman another question, who am I!"
"You already asked this question just now."
"No! Ancient lay scholar, I just asked about my true self, now I'm asking about my self."
Gu Qingfeng had a headache and asked, "What's the difference between the id and the self?"
"When I use my code name to communicate with the ancient layman, the ancient layman's codename is also me. What does this mean? Does this mean that you are me and I am you..."
Gu Qingfeng was a little confused.
The old monk continued: "Where did I come from and where will I die? Why do I appear in this world? What does my appearance mean to the world? Did the world choose me, or did I choose the world? "
Gu Qingfeng became more and more confused the more he listened.
Of course.
The old monk was still talking, and his words were getting more and more profound, saying: "Is there an inevitable connection between me, the universe, and the universe? Is there an end to heaven and earth? Is there a length of time? Where does the past time disappear? Where will the future time stop? Is the question I ask at this moment the same as the ancient layman’s question just now?
"Who is me, are you me, or am I me, and who am I!"
"Where do I come from?"
"Where am I going again?"
Gu Qingfeng felt a splitting headache when he heard it, and immediately shouted: "Stop! Stop! Stop talking! I can't stand it anymore."
"well……"
The old monk sighed and said: "It's not that the ancient layman couldn't bear it. It's not that the ancient layman couldn't transcend himself, let alone be unable to recognize himself. It's just that the ancient layman didn't want to transcend himself or recognize himself from the beginning. "
This time Gu Qingfeng did not refute.
"The ancient layman has been sleeping for thousands of years. After waking up, he has long realized that he was confused. The ancient layman's confusion has nothing to do with original sin and has nothing to do with cause and effect, but has to do with the ancient layman himself. The ancient layman knows very well in his heart that as long as he transcends himself, he can fully understand. ”
"Unfortunately, the ancient layman did not want to transcend himself. He could not let go of the 'self' in his heart. To be precise, what the ancient layman could not let go was the memory related to the 'self'."
Gu Qingfeng closed his eyes and looked very sad.
After a long time, he asked: "If I give up myself, after transcendence, will I still be me?"
The old monk did not answer this question.
"After transcendence, I may still be me, but I will not be the same person before."
The old monk sighed again and said, "In the final analysis, the ancient layman still doesn't want to let go of his inner self."
"Although I don't want to, I have to admit that what you said is the truth. I really don't want to let go of myself."
"Sir, can I ask you why I can't let go?"
"Because I just want to be myself. Although the journey has been bumpy, with painful memories and beautiful memories, no matter whether they are painful or beautiful, they are all my own memories."
The old monk said: "Even if I transcend myself, this memory is still the memory of Gu Jushi, and no one can take it away."
"You are right, no one can take it away, but the past memories have become memories."
"Is there a difference between memory and recollection?"
"Yes, memory is what I have experienced now, and recollection is what I have experienced in the past. I still feel palpitations when I think of the memories I have experienced. The memories I have experienced in the past, Looking back, it will just fade away like a passing cloud until you forget it. "
"I don't understand."
"You're right not to understand. I'm a human, you're a Buddha, how can you understand?"
The old monk said, "Buddha is also a human."
Gu Qingfeng retorted, "But humans are not Buddhas."
"Is there a difference between Buddha and humans?"
"Of course there is. You are a Buddha with the four elements empty, and I'm a human with seven emotions and six desires!"
"A Buddha with the four elements empty, a human with seven emotions and six desires!"
The old monk murmured, "So that's it... So that's it..."
"My master once taught me a sentence, adhering to one's nature and not forgetting one's original intention is a human being. 's nature is also my nature. "
"So, Gu Jushi will neither become a Buddha nor a saint in this life, right?"
"Of course."
"Even if he transcends himself, Gu Jushi will still be a human being."
"After transcending himself, whether he is still a human being or not, I don't know, but one thing is certain, after transcending himself, he will definitely not be a layman." Gu Qingfeng laughed and said, "Old monk, have you forgotten that I said... I am a layman, I was, I am, and I will be, I like to be a layman with seven emotions and six desires."
