Chapter 57 Practice is actually evolution

When Cao Liwen walked into the research room, he saw Chu Fei who had lost a lot of weight at first sight.

After all, he is a semi-awakened person with sharp eyesight, "Compared to last night, your weight has dropped by at least five kilograms. What happened?"

Chu Fei looked excited, "Teacher, I have an epiphany! I had an epiphany last night!"

Teacher Cao frowned, "Okay, what did you realize?"

Chu Fei opened his mouth and came, "I vaguely understand what cultivation is."

"Oh?" Cao Liwen became interested. "This is the second question I prepared today. Now that you have an epiphany, let's talk about it."

Chu Fei said slowly: "Cultivation, if explained by scientific theory, it is - individual evolution!
The traditional evolution is life mutations, trial and error generations, elimination generation after generation, and inheritance from generation to generation. It takes millions of years or even longer to take a small step forward.

As for practice, especially big data practice, we use scientific theories to guide the direction of evolution, and use science and technology to try and make mistakes.In just a dozen years, a person can break through the first limit, the second limit, and even become an awakened person.

From millions of years to more than ten years, the biggest gap is:

Science & Technology! "

Cao Liwen praised, "Very well said!

Originally, I planned to talk about the problems left over from yesterday in the first class tonight, and then talk about spiritual practice in the second class.

Now adjust, let's talk about practice first.

What you said is very good, going straight to the core.But the description is not scientific enough!

Don't stare, I'm not trying to criticize, but since the practice of big data is science, it must be summarized with scientific thinking. "

Chu Fei looked at Cao Liwen and waited silently.

Cao Liwen didn't hang on to Chu Fei this time, and said directly:
"In fact, the relationship between the natural evolution process of life and spiritual practice is very similar to the relationship between ancient science and technology and modern science and technology.

The development of ancient technology is to sum up experience in daily life production, and then summarize the experience into technology in the long production practice.This process may last hundreds of years and is extremely easy to be interrupted.

Modern science, on the other hand, uses mathematics as a tool to directly derive technology from scientific theories.

In the age of science, the birth of a technology may be just a few manuscripts and a few hours.The test of a technology may also be just a computer running a virtual program.

In the age of science and technology, the technology developed by human beings in one year even exceeds the sum of all the technologies in ancient times!

As with technology, so with evolution. "

Cao Liwen paused to give Chu Fei time to digest and absorb, and then continued:
"Evolution before the age of science was natural evolution, through hundreds of millions of years of cruel elimination, human beings were finally formed.

But this kind of evolution is not guided by scientific theory, it is completely the 'survival gene' left behind under the cruel law of survival of the fittest.

The master of these surviving genes is human beings.

But humans in nature are not perfect.

For example, as we said before, there are problems with the recurrent laryngeal nerve, temples, and retina.In addition, the spine is easy to bend, and walking upright causes excessive pressure on the heart, which is prone to heart disease and so on.

Humans are obviously advanced creatures, and our body structure is also very reasonable, but unarmed humans can easily become the food of wild beasts.

Why?Just because of those flaws!
Every defect is a shortcoming of the barrel.The addition of each short board finally leads to the fact that the upper limit of the human body is obviously high, but it is weak.

Our body structure is more reasonable than that of a cheetah, but we cannot outrun a cheetah.

In order to ensure that this body full of problems can run healthily, a considerable part of human's powerful intelligence is wasted on balancing the body.

But even so, humans are already the pinnacle of natural evolution.It is impossible to continue to break through. "

"In order to make ourselves more perfect, human beings began to actively evolve for the first time. The representative of this is martial arts!
However, the accumulation of martial arts still lacks scientific guidance. It still starts from phenomena and experience, and then sums up the techniques after long practice.

Through martial arts training, etc., it can make up for some shortcomings and make the human body stronger.

But still not enough to make up for some fundamental flaws. "

Speaking of this, Cao Liwen asked Chu Fei again, "Chu Fei, try to explain what the 'fundamental defect' I just mentioned is? This question has already been discussed in class."

Chu Fei gave the answer almost instantly: "It is the epigene and the core gene, and the core gene is also called the underlying gene.

There are about 2.6 human genomes, but there are only more than 3200 core genes that determine the biological structure of the human body. These are the core genes.These genetic changes can easily lead to congenital diseases and deformities.

The rest, called epigenes, are the most volatile and easily influenced by the environment.If these genetic changes are not good, it will be like a cleft lip at most. Although it is a bit ugly, it will not easily affect life and health. "

Cao Liwen nodded, "That's right. Martial arts, as well as some traditional training, all of these are acquired efforts, and what can be changed is only epigenetic genes.

Natural evolution has made it difficult to touch the core genes.

But if human beings want to continue to evolve, they must attack the core genes!

As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. If you want to change the core genes, we need a tool.This tool is science and technology. "

Then, Cao Liwen asked Chu Fei again, "Speaking of now, you already have an essential understanding of big data practice?"

Chu Fei nodded.

"Let's sum it up."

Chu Fei tried to say: "The so-called practice is to use scientific theory as a guide and use science and technology as a tool to activate one's own core genes."

Cao Liwen shook his head, "In the practice of big data, turning on the gene is only the initial stage. Your thinking must jump out of the framework of the gene."

Chu Fei said again, "Use science and technology to promote the active upgrading of life and surpass nature."

Cao Liwen wrote six big characters on the screen: Weili belongs to himself!
Then he clicked on these six words and said: "The so-called practice is to compress countless scientific achievements into oneself, and finally complete the transformation of life and become a technology-intensive life form."

"Technology-intensive life forms?" Chu Fei only felt that his eyes suddenly opened up.

Cao Liwen: "Now let's continue yesterday's topic, what is will. Have you thought about it?"

Chu Fei shook his head.

Cao Liwen was very calm, and said lightly, "Actually, human beings have no will at all!"

"Ah?" Chu Fei was stunned.How is this possible without will?

Cao Liwen wrote two words on the big screen:

greedy!

"Take a 15-minute break. It's time for you to eat."

Chu Fei's stomach growled.
