Chapter 35: The Three Pure Ones Discuss the Dao
On the Eternal Island, in Yuxu Palace.
The earth, water, fire and wind surged, flying into the Supreme Infinite Yuanshi Qingyun, the original and most ancient heart was surrounded by purple energy, also thrown in, the Wuji Golden Lotus, the image of opening the sky and destroying the world, the Five Virtues Phoenix, the Void Golden Dragon, the Flame Bi Fang, The Time and Space Candle Dragon, Divine Thunder of All Heavens, Buzhou Divine Mountain, Piaomiao Yuanxin, and the God-killing Great Seal followed closely behind, and were swallowed and dissolved one by one by the infinite chaos.
At this moment, all the ways are unified. At first glance, it seems that there is only one point, a point of chaos that contains all the ways, countless possibilities, the past and the future, the beginning and the end. When he looked again, it was clearly a grand celebration cloud covering all the worlds. The dim light hung down, forming a water curtain.
All things are unified, the beginning is infinite.
At this point, Yuanshi created another seal——
Promise Seal!
Go against the Tai Chi of existence and become the infinite chaos of non-being!
The Wuji Seal is just the opposite of the Open Heaven Seal. The Open Heaven Seal opens the sky from chaos and transforms all phenomena into one. However, the Wuji Seal brings all phenomena into unity and returns to chaos.
The creation of the Wuji Seal represents the further advancement of Yuanshi Dao. The Dao and Yi seals that unite all the Dao were created, and the Wuji seal, which symbolizes the avenue of Wu, followed closely.
Although it was joyful to create the Wuji Seal, Yuanshi was not too excited because his purpose was to communicate with his brothers, not to create supernatural powers.
The entire process of manifesting Taishang Wuji Yuanshi Qingyun this time is just to give the two brothers an intuitive feeling. Qingyun's evolution represents the evolution of their own great ways. Others can correspond to each other while watching Qingyun's evolution. Find your own path, find common ground, and improve your path.
After evolution, it’s time to preach. If you don’t preach anymore, you can see that the expressions on Lao Tzu and Tong Tian’s faces are about to change.
Therefore, Yuanshi Youyou said:
"I have a path called Yuanshi Avenue. However, what is Yuanshi? I think that Yuan is the source, Shi is the beginning, and Yuanshi is the original origin."
"The way of Yuanshi is not only the original way, but also the way of Taichu, the way of Taishi."
"Heaven and earth originate from the beginning, and all things return to the end. One Yuan begins again, and the Great Way of Yuanshi is the cause of all fruits, the source of heaven and earth, the source of all ways, and the beginning of all phenomena."
"Nothing is called the beginning of heaven and earth, and existence is called the mother of all things."
"The so-called 'being' is matter, which is black and yellow. The so-called 'nothing' is nothingness and chaos. The original way is to reverse 'nothing' in 'being' and to create 'being' in 'nothing'."
"The roads lead to the same destination but take different paths; they are the same but have many worries..."
"The ordinary Tao has no roots and stems, no leaves and no glory. The ordinary Tao has billions of roots and stems, and billions of withered and prosperous things... All things are born, all things wither, all things rise, all things disperse, all things merge... all are Tao."
"The Taoist man is the coexistence of heaven and earth, the unity of millions and millions, and then we can see his success..."
"Tao gives birth to one, one gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, three gives birth to all things, all things carry yin and hold yang, the yin pole gives birth to yang, the yang pole gives birth to yin, the yin and yang are combined, and Tai Chi is first formed."
"On the contrary, all things can return to the three, the three to the self, the two to the one, and the one to the Dao."
…
Yuanshi continued to preach for a thousand years. After a thousand years, Yuanshi stopped preaching.
The Tao that Yuanshi talks about is all-encompassing, and there are all kinds of avenues. However, he only talks about some of each avenue. The most important thing is that he is talking about his own Yuanshi Avenue.
In the process of preaching, Yuanshi was also sorting out his own path. After the great principles were followed, the path took a further step.
After Yuanshi finished speaking, I took over. I also released my Qingyun. His Qingyun has three clear lights, which merge into three green lotuses. The three green lotuses carry various great ways, but there are only three most important ones, one is the way of yin and yang, the other is the way of alchemy, and the last one It is the way of doing nothing.
Every lotus flower contains infinite mystery and a pure and inactive artistic conception.
This is the moral Qingyun of Taishang Taiji.
"I think that the great road should be inaction, doing nothing, doing nothing, tasteless. Inaction, everything will be cured..."
"The Tao can be Tao, but it is very 'Tao'; the name can be named, but it is very 'name'.
‘Nothing’ is called the beginning of heaven and earth, and ‘being’ is called the mother of all things.
Therefore, if you always think of "nothing", you want to observe its wonders; if you always think of "being", you want to observe its flukes.
These two have the same origin but different names, and they are both called xuan. Mysterious and mysterious, the door to all mysteries. "
"Existence and non-existence arise from each other, difficulty and ease complement each other, long and short complement each other, high and low complement each other, sound and sound harmonize each other, front and rear follow each other, and it is eternal."
…
Most of Laozi's teachings are based on the Tao of inaction, which means inaction without cure, purity and indifference, doing things without doing anything, and teaching without saying anything.
After me, there is Tongtian. Seeing how powerful his two brothers are, Tongtian does not show any weakness. It shows a strange and unique Qingyun. On the Qingyun, the three flowers are condensed into one shape, unlike Yuanshi, where the three Qingyuns merge into one.
A Qingyun in the sky condenses into a sharp and shocking illusory long sword. The sword reaches the sky and cuts down the world. The other one forms a world of formations. In the world, the five elements are interdependent, the four images are surging, thunder and lightning roar, and mythical beasts transform. .
On top of the last Qingyun, it turned into the four sacred beasts of Suzaku, White Tiger, Qinglong and Xuanwu, each occupying one side. This is the way of the Four Symbols.
This Qingyun is called Taishang Hunyuan Lingbao Qingyun.
Yuanshi thought thoughtfully, it seemed that Tongtian had digested all the marks of creation left by Pangu and formed his own avenue.
"My way is the way of intercepting the sword. The great avenue is fifty, the heavenly evolution is forty-nine, and one of them escapes. Under the way of heaven, there is only a glimmer of life for freedom. Those who practice Tao are meant to intercept the glimmer of life to practice..."
"The Tao was born before heaven and earth. To realize the Tao is to integrate heaven and earth. The way of sword is the way of killing. To become a sword immortal, one must have a sincere heart. The sword is the sword in the heart."
"Sword immortals, everything is the 'Sword Way'."
"Whether it is the way of the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind, or the way of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, or even the way of killing, destruction and ending...all can be integrated into the way of sword."
"The sword is my body."
"The sword is my life."
"The sword is my way, my way."
...
Tongtian's lecture was repeated for a thousand years. The three people preached and communicated through their souls. The great sound was silent. Countless mysterious runes swirled around the three people, and waves of mysterious meaning covered the entire Eternal Island.
Yuanshi did not turn on the sound protection, so the sound spread throughout the Eternal Island. This benefited countless creatures on the Eternal Island. Countless rare animals and birds crawled on the ground, quietly experiencing the profound meaning of the Tao. Their spirituality increased greatly and their intelligence continued to rise.
There were also many flowers, plants and trees that awakened their wisdom, especially the pine trees and black bamboos near the Yuxu Palace, and the white lotuses in the pond. The cranes on the Yuxu Palace grew countless times. The trees were lush and green, and the animals had a long breath. They would soon take shape.
After three thousand years, the three Yuanshi stopped preaching, and the Yuanshen returned to their positions. Many rare animals and birds also bowed silently, and then quietly retreated.
But the Yuanshi people did not wake up immediately, but quietly comprehended what they had gained from this discussion. It was not until a hundred years later that they woke up one after another.
