True knowledge and false knowledge

If a person has not even tasted the painful taste of "lost peace" and the inner turmoil has not been truly experienced and recognized, it is impossible to recognize what true peace is.

Words that are often spoken and used in people's mouths and hearts must be understood in their daily life and work, and what kind of behaviors they specifically refer to. Otherwise, the unity of knowledge and action is just empty talk and cannot be changed. A word that becomes an action becomes a pure concept, which is pseudo-knowledge, and everyone has a large dose of this type of pseudo-knowledge in their minds.

If you use a word without knowing what specific daily behavior it represents, you will live in countless concepts, in pseudo-knowledge, and in a life of self-deception.

For example: the word "calm".

If you want to get "peace", you must have calm behaviors to support yourself, such as: take the initiative to take deep breaths; do ten minutes of meditation; focus on what you are doing; stop thinking, stop judging, and get rid of distracting thoughts; Put aside the pros and cons of the ego and the calculation of the pros and cons, let your consciousness reach the state of no ego...

If you take these actions, you can get that calm state of mind right away.

Only in this way can the word "calm" become a perception that really exists in the human mind.

People can't calm themselves down, even in the emotions of anger, fear, and inner conflict and still can't be conscious, because they don't have "calm consciousness".

"Calm awareness" arises from the act of restoring oneself to calm.

People need to know how to calm themselves down, and take corresponding actions to make themselves really calm down, get a real physical and mental experience of calming down through a certain action, and can clearly distinguish through this experience. The difference between "calm" and "unquiet" is to truly understand the connotation and extension of the word "calm", and then through a certain level of specialized practice, through repeated actions to generate corresponding consciousness, only in this way, a Only one can truly have "calm consciousness".

At this time, the word "calm" is no longer a concept, but has truly become a kind of knowledge.

"Take new actions - gain new experiences - generate new cognitions - transform into new consciousness", after completing such a reincarnation of the unity of knowledge and action, only one can be considered to have obtained some kind of true knowledge.

Even so, the realm of "peace" of true knowledge still contains various levels.

A person with a "calm consciousness" can timely perceive his inner state of "losing his calm". At this time, the word "calm" emerges from his consciousness, and his consciousness brings action to restore his own self. calm state.

The above is one of the levels.

After a person has repeated this process many times, from self-awareness to taking action, to regaining calm, as long as the word "calm" appears, he does not need to take any action, he can immediately regain his calm, even As soon as he perceives that he is "not calm", he can immediately regain his calm.

This is a higher level than the previous level, and it is a state of wisdom that can be stopped from "observation" to "stopping" as soon as one is aware of it.

When a person's "peace" has penetrated deep into his bone marrow and his own life, then, he no longer needs the state of "peace" in his life, the word "peace" no longer needs to appear in his heart, and without any judgment, he has gone from The phenomenon of "people need to be peaceful" penetrates the past, and realizes that life itself is peaceful, everything is normal, and people who have reached such a state are undoubtedly people with high wisdom.

There is nothing in the universe that is peaceful, and there is nothing that is unsettled, everything is a phenomenon.

This is the highest realm of true knowledge.

In fact, Banshan students have always maintained a skeptical attitude towards that kind of leapfrog growth.

If a person has not even tasted the painful taste of "lost peace" and the inner turmoil has not been truly experienced and recognized, it is impossible to recognize what true peace is.

If a person has not even practiced the action to regain peace, and has no profound knowledge and experience of how to obtain peace, he simply does not have the "consciousness of peace" and produces actions to make himself calm.

Leaving the cognition of the above-mentioned two processes, and wanting to directly cross over to the so-called realm where there is neither peacefulness nor peacefulness, this is a fantasy, or false knowledge.

Any big tree grows into a big tree inch by inch. If any millimeter is missing in the middle, it is no longer a tree, but a fool.

If you don't feel that you are full of false knowledge, you can try to explain to yourself the word "personality" that people often use:

What is personality?

What is a personality defect?

What is integrity of personality?

Practitioners can also interpret to themselves the context of "people have to cross themselves" that people often say in the practice:

What is self-transportation?

What kind of words and deeds in daily life can be regarded as self-transcendence?

In your behavior habits, what behavior habits are supporting yourself toward self-transition?

What kind of things do you do every day, and you actually practice what people have to do?

People who can't answer the above questions clearly are just hypocrites who talk about "self-transcendence" all the time. But it is the false knowledge and false behavior of the word "self-crossing".

For another example, there is an educational philosophy in family education: "Any problem with a child is actually a problem with the parents."

For this sentence to become true knowledge, it means that this sentence must be translated into the specific actions of parents in their daily life.

what action?

If you are a parent, you start to change your actions and start to grow up. If you are a parent, you just feel that you understand this sentence. When you return home, everything is the same as before, and everything is still repeating. A new kind of behavior, words and deeds have not happened, and the things that need to be changed in myself have not begun to change at all.

Then, even if I heard this kind of educational philosophy from the teacher, I already agreed with it very much, and I even shed tears of remorse because of my own problems. This still cannot change this idea for parents who have no action. To say that is but a false fact.

In real life, you can see many parents who have problems with their children, looking around for doctors and medicines, looking for various experts and teachers to find the root cause of the problem, and desperately reading various family education books, but they are " On the point of changing one's words and deeds", and on the point of "growing oneself", there is zero action, so everything that is heard and understood has become useless pseudo-knowledge.

In life, once you leave the practice and personal experience and experience, people are actually nothing, and even the word "people" may be just one: the concept of "being a person", and life lives in false knowledge.

Only the words and deeds that you have made can truly tell yourself what the "knowledge" you know is, and what you have really learned from the lessons of life.

So, what is true knowledge?

Just know what you're doing right now.

The Dao is so simple, not "after knowing what, do it", but "know what you are doing".

A wise person is just a person who knows what he is doing, and of course he can understand what others are doing.

A wise person not only knows what he is doing, but also what he wants to experience, and what growth it brings to him after the experience. Therefore, the wise person is the enlightened one.

Stupid people, but often do not know what they are doing, of course, do not understand what others are doing.

A person can see that a certain person is a wise man, then at least he can prove that he cannot be a fool, at least he can recognize the behavior of others, the name is "wisdom".

Otherwise, idiots will not know the words and deeds of wisdom...

What you have not done is your own false knowledge; what you have done is your true knowledge.
