: Whole Book Postscript 4: Discrimination between True and False (Carefully read)

﹄—﹃A network novel worth collecting

Interspersed with the entire "Liao Zhai Zhai Zhai", in addition to Ho Ning's "use of magical powers", is Zhou Yuan's "false" talent.

To put it bluntly, since Haoning knew that Zhou Yuan was the heart ape of Zhouxia, and sealed the "God of Friends" for him, Zhou Yuan began the road of "faking". This kind of falsification has been a joke from the very beginning. , Unconscious, and then play a major role, until the last through the "fake" to create an entire "fake earth" to resist Mr. Fei's attack, help Zhou Yuan find his original heart.

If at the beginning we thought that Zhou Yuan's "fake" was a farce, then in all subsequent developments, we seem to be able to discuss something from it. This is in a deep sense: the distinction between true and false.

First of all, why is Zhou Yuan?

The reason is not difficult to guess: Sun Wukong used "Fire Eyes and Gold Eyes" to break the illusion of monsters in the entire "Journey to the West" and seek the true body of the demon, which helped Tang Seng to obtain the true scripture. The whole book is discussing how to recognize the truth, so in this book, he lost The original ape under the boat is opposed to Sun Wukong, and naturally he is "fake" in enlightenment.

The second question: Why does Sun Wukong understand "false" in addition to "true"?

In addition to the dialectical relationship between true and false, we can also see the clues from Journey to the West, that is: the chapter of true and false beautiful monkey king.

For this chapter, there are many interpretations. Mu Yu chose one of the deeper interpretations. That is the so-called true and false Monkey King. In fact, they are all Sun Wukong. Because of the contradiction with Tang Sanzang, he gave birth to " "Two hearts" is actually one of Sun Wukong's two sides. There are many specific interpretations. For example, Wu Xianyun's "Boiling Wine and Talking about the West Journey". If you are interested, you can take a look. Here are just a few simple examples:

1. There can be no more than two hoops. Even if there are, the six-eared macaque cannot steal a belt under Rulai's eyelids (in other words, he is wearing a Monkey Goku's hoop by himself, crazy?)

2. Rulai said that before the true and false Sun Wukong hit Lingshan, he said an important word: Ru waits for one mind and sees him fighting for it. "This sentence is translated as follows: You people, who want to see who is true and who is false, can you see through his second heart? Here, if you break these two points, both of them are Sun Wukong. Note that this is in In all cases where the true and false Sun Wukong can't be identified (except for the truth of the prefecture, but dare not say it, the reason will be described next), only if you come to identify the true and false Sun Wukong, for example, it is worth pondering.

3. The behavior of the truth is very strange. Originally, Wu Wukong was already comparable to the fake Sun Wukong. How could it be possible to understand the true and the false. With the help of heavy soldiers in the local government, including the Bodhisattva of the Dizang King, he could not get the fake Sun Wukong? If you refer to two Sun Wukong as one Sun Wukong, it becomes very easy to understand: if you listen to the truth and tell the truth, then the original "true" Sun Wukong will be annoyed and angry, and together with the fake Sun Wukong, he will make the earth upside down-- Anyway, the prefecture has been in trouble once 500 years ago, and it is no longer worse this time. ——By the way, "The Gods Liao Zhai" also refers to this interesting complex whose behavior is completely opposite to the previous one after knowing the truth, and arranged why Li Yufei would rather erase his memory, and would rather let Long Fei know that Chen Busheng does not love Li Yufei, or even Li Yufei was such a "fake" killed by Chen Busheng, and he did not want to let Long Fei know Chen Busheng's "true feelings" towards Li Yufei: Li Yufei knew very well that his feelings about his father were similar to those of Li Yufei and Chen Busheng. After sacrificing his feelings, the only rational decision he can make is to kill Chen Busheng. Therefore, Li Yufei here also did a "listen to listen", clearly knowing the truth, but dare not say the truth, and completely eliminate the memory of the truth he knew.

4. The "Six-Eared Macaque Said" compiled under the emergency situation is full of loopholes: it can know things thousands of miles away ... everything is clear before and after knowledge. This is almost nonsense. Everything is clear, you can know things thousands of miles away, and you can know before and after, and the six-eared macaque still dare to come and see? The brain was shot, is it too long? (Note that when looking at this, we can only use the internal descriptions in the Journey to the West to look at it, and do n’t set up the yin and yang in the novels of the later generations, which blinds the magical sets such as cause and effect. The Journey to the West does not clearly describe If it ’s a high probability event, Wu Chengen could n’t even think of it at the time), and the whole "Journey to the West", such as the nonsense that came out in his own territory, was not once or twice-this is also Zhang Chihang in the "Lord of the Gods" When it came, it was not a reason for special respect:

This paragraph is too secretive. I have to get the original text from that time. The word count is not counted here:

I smiled and called Rao Ming, remembering what Zhang Chihang said just now, so I asked, "Who is Duobao? Why is the gold hoop spell his magic weapon?"

Zhang Chihang didn't answer, but he was upset. I will look at Liu Shuai again, and Liu Shuai explained in a low voice: "As soon as the Taoist Taoist Taoist was taken out by the old monk, he had turned Hu Guguan into a Buddha for the sake of Shakyamuni. There was a lot of secret debate in this period, but there has been a Qishu mentioned this matter again, and it may have something to do with pointing out more treasures, namely Shakyamuni. Cihangdao people used to explain the teachings at that time, and the relationship between the two religions was more subtle.

The message here is that Liu Shuai thought that Zhang Chihang had become a Buddha because of Duobao Taoists, and became a Sakyamuni, but before it became a free-spirited Cihang Taoist, it was an elucidation. Impression, this made sense at the time, but referring to the above, probably Zhang Chihang did not have a good impression of the shouting Buddha in Journey to the West.

In order to prevent everyone from thinking that Mu Yu is talking nonsense, Mu Yu is talking more about this place (anyway Mu Yu is not the first to digress ...)

1. As I said in public: I who live in Xi Niu Hezhou, do not greedy or kill, nourish qi and harbour spirits, although supreme, everyone lives. But in the ninety-nine-eighty-one hardship, more than half of the monsters and hardships are still in Xi Niu Hezhou, where you come!

2. The name of the Antiy Conference was changed: After suppressing Sun Wukong, the Jade Emperor feasted everyone and expressed his gratitude to Rulai, and invited Rulai to name the banquet. Rulai even named "Antiy Conference" directly. What is it like? There was a chaotic army in the Yongzheng Palace, and quickly found Nian Qianyao to rebel. After the Nian Gengyao rebelled, Yongzheng hosted a banquet Xie Nian Genyao, saying Xiaonian, you give this banquet a name, Nian Genyao said Then, call it the Emperor's General Assembly-everyone, does Nian Gengyao think he has a stiff neck? ——Of course, this is not the key. The key point is that after going back and forth, this story was skillfully turned into the Buddhas of Lingshan: the Jade Emperor opened the Jin Que Yao Palace, please invite me to be the chief, and Li Tian Tian will thank me, but he will Resign. ——The "Li" Antiy Conference is very delicate. I heard from the Bodhisattva Luohan that this sentence means that the Jade Emperor has given the name of "Lai An" from his own perspective. It is as if he had "sealed" himself, but this is a plausible place, and the Jade Emperor naturally couldn't refute it, so it passed. But from this we can also see the qualities of Rulai, and whether he has the ability to influence the judgment of others by changing the clues, in other words, Rulai's language art is extremely high. (Of course, this is just the way to the west, not in our religion)

3. Suppress the true and false Monkey King event through language ability and power.

4. The case of covering Kaye and Ananda requesting bribes from Tang Seng and others.

The last thing is the most important. In Journey to the West, if you come here, you will be very special, and you will especially love money, and even calm down the Green Cow incident of Taishang Laojun. (It can be seen that the problems that can be solved with money are not problems, Keke), but in the world of "Liao Zhai", Zhang Chihang never used the money in exchange for manpower, but let Xiaohong donate (Wang Dong Billions of incidents), and from the mouth of Xiaohongzhi in the parking lot of the gambling yard told Haoning and others that the kind of sports car with two doors opening upward is not practical and a series of reasons. It can also be seen that Zhang Chihang ’s view Some of the concepts of Ziru and Westward Journey are not the same. (Of course, this belongs to the character design of the characters in the book. You can see it when you see it. If you do n’t see it, it wo n’t affect the whole book.)

Of course, from the above understanding, we can also see that not only the understanding of true and false in "Journey to the West" has a deeper meaning (true and false beautiful monkey king, such as the true and false of all kinds of speaking), from "Lord of All Gods" In the matter of true and false, there are some continuing discussions. This kind of discussion, since Zhang Chihang's implicit discussion, made a "manifestation" on Zhou Yuan. This kind of manifestation is: false reality.

The false reality comes from Zhou Yuan, the "God of Friends" talent, "False, Good, and Beautiful," and the God of Friendship, the talent of false, good, and beautiful, comes from the purpose of all sentient beings in the circle of friends: show as much as possible Be kind, as beautiful as possible, but not necessarily true, or even a fake self-of course, this has a certain degree of ridicule, after all, this year I ca n’t do anything to ask for praise. But I have to say that the withdrawal of the talent of hypocrisy and beauty has some extremes. This has nothing to do with WeChat, it has nothing to do with the circle of friends, it only has to do with people's hearts. After all, this is extreme. In real life, there is no such extreme in reality. Please don't look at your circle of friends with other eyes. Is the novel derived from life and higher than life?

The theoretical basis of the false reality is the distortion of the macro quantum state discussed above (of course, it does not recognize the macro quantum state, it only makes sense to recognize the mana, and it does not need to be rigorously calculated), but only by Xiaohong et al. Said the power of the "false reality" spell: outside the false reality, all mana (macro quantum state distortion of reality) is the caster's own mana to twist reality, so when encountering other mana, For a strong person, this spell is broken (eye-blocking method), but the false reality spell, because Zhou Yuan ’s talent is to show what others think, the essence of this spell is not the caster ’s own distortion of reality, but this mana. Foundation to allow the caster to distort reality through their own imagination, and people have a way to doubt the blind eyes that others have added to themselves, but it is difficult to doubt their own distortion of the world they see (because this is their own heart imagination).

No matter how powerful the false reality is in the book, we have at least one impression here, that is, whether we admit or not, we must accept the fact that:

Our human knowledge of this world is the specific result obtained by ourselves and the tools we can master, which is gathered into our human brain and the "imagined" one in the mind that "feels" the world international.

This process is the fundamental reason why all idealism and materialism have earned for so many years: because this process involves both objective and subjective participation.

One of the conflicts between these two conflicts is the proposition of an extreme distinction between true and false: the brain in the tank.

This proposition is also covered in the book, and the person who responded that "Fake Manjusri" is the brain in the tank, which is precisely Zhou Yuan. This also proves to a certain extent that Zhou Yuan's understanding of truth and false at this time is even better. A layer.

If we can turn back to the topic of the brain in the tank, we will discuss it in detail. Now let ’s talk about the question of authenticity: since our knowledge of the world is through ourselves and what we can control The specific results obtained by the tool are gathered into our human brain and the world that is "imagined" in the mind obtained by "feeling" this world, then our understanding of the "true" of this world is worth investigating.

In other words, there are three key factors in the process of real recognition: human beings, tools, and mind.

: Summed up in the book as the six senses mentioned in the Heart Sutra: eyes, ears, nose, tongue and body, corresponding to the touch of color, sound and fragrance-of course, a small stalk was made in the book, Zhang Chihang initially told Haoning that he was "off" Since the five senses were closed, Houning did n’t realize that there was one last key meaning, and it seemed that Hooning ’s perception in this area was really poor. It was not until the 10,000th time cycle that he realized The existence of the "consciousness" of the Six Senses, so finally this time, I got the "dharma" of self-consistency (in the Six Senses, the consciousness corresponds to the law, of course, I do n’t have to worry about whether this method is the one), of course, this is a novel The smart design inside does not make it to the lobby, everyone just smiles.

By the way, Master Tian, ​​the overall consciousness on the Earth ’s scale, is, to a certain extent, a qualitative change resulting from the extreme expansion of humankind ’s own six senses (eyes, ears, noses, tongues, and tongue and body), so this system after qualitative changes can It is also possible to discover "macro particles" (macro atoms, macro electrons, and corresponding macro quantum phenomena).

But anyway, from the perspective of human beings, through the understanding of these six consciousnesses, we will find that without tools, or with fewer tools, humans can only rely on these six consciousnesses to understand the world, that is to say There are limited methods and limited abilities. Naturally, to a certain extent, the "real" world in your mind is far away from the real "real" world-the most typical case is the "heavy iron ball" of Aristotle. The obscenity ended before the light iron ball fell to the ground.

: The invention of the tool has given us a deeper understanding of the "truth" of this world, but at the same time it has brought more confusion: because of the limitations of the tool, we still can't explore or explain many kinds of "truth"-exploring long distances The limitations of the tools make us unable to know what the distant starry sky is. The limitations of the tools to explore the microscopic world have made us unable to find the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics. (By the way, it is said that foreign professors of quantum mechanics in I will say: shutup, justdoit! Meaning, shut up, do n’t ask Lao Tzu why this is the case, and you just calculate it! This funny paragraph is probably also the helplessness of existing physics to quantum mechanics: we ca n’t fully explain it, but This is the fact, we can only accept it first). The limitations of the human body ’s own research tools have made us unable to understand human consciousness so far. (This is also the ceiling of the development of artificial intelligence today, or a dark cloud wandering in the artificial intelligence world: humans have forcibly developed artificial intelligence without fully understanding how human consciousness is generated, operated, and related laws. If the technology is only at the level of artificial intellectual disability, what if it really produces the same consciousness as human beings?-If you have not seen yourself, have not seen the world, you will see all beings, such variants evolve, and the result will be How is it?) —— So at the tool level, the gods Liao Zhai also "invented" some tools for the characters in the book: Pandora metal, the essence of the gods, macro electronics (macro quantum)

: The computing system of the human brain is mainly divided into the following three categories: more complex instincts, powerful logic, and inspiration that appears by accident.

The category of more complex instincts is larger, including emotions, imagination, and certain impulses. These cannot be judged with logic: you like a girl, not because it is derived from logic, but You like it when you see her. When you see a person being bullied, you want to be brave in your heart, at least you feel that the person is wrong, this is not logical deduction. By convention, the application of this more complex instinct is much higher than logical deduction. ——But in a sense, the pure instinct is a little animal-oriented (some instincts are possessed by both humans and animals)

Powerful logical deduction is a way of thinking that occurs in the process of human self-evolution. This method requires acquired training, so not everyone has it. A dialogue between a very logical person and a non-logical person will make both sides collapse. One of the most classic single case is: If you say hello to a very logical person: Hello. The other party will ask you: How do you know "How are you?"-Where is chat, this is a dialogue disaster! ——So in this book, Haoning, who especially likes to talk about logic, also made a certain degree of ridicule, to invisibly propose that his thinking method is only one of the human brain thinking methods.

Occasional inspiration: If instincts can be explained by hormones and the intuitive reaction of the mind to some things, and logical deductions can be explained by existing deduction methods, then inspiration, something that does not know when it can appear, is simply terrible. ——Because we do n’t know when inspiration will appear, whether it ’s right after it appears, or even what principle it is, but the charm of inspiration is that it is a kind of transcendental instinct, transcendental logic, some kind of aura In a sense, inspiration is even the promoter of "mutation" and "evolution" of human thought. (Of course, the effect is not absolutely obvious) In past works, there are many references to inspiration:

In "The Legend of God", after Nu Wa was teased by Shang Yu, the original words he said angrily were: "... If you don't retaliate with him, you won't see my inspiration." (Sage-level remarks)

In Journey to the West, the Bodhisattva ’s goldfish ran away and became a monster in the lower realm. Every year he would eat the virgin of the same year. The name of this monster is: King of Inspiration-we read the book and know that this product is actually a Goldfish with "inspiration" in the flowers. And where did this goldfish "inspire" from? Bodhisattva!

As can be seen from the above, the gods who move towards higher ranks pay more attention to inspiration, so in "Lord of the Gods", the fish in the river of the last time are called "the inspiration system" by Haoran, and they also want to say This. (Is this stalk buried deeper? Oh, no, do n’t beat me! Is n’t this Mu Yu already mentioned in the postscript ~)

In short, we can see from the above that the calculation method of the human brain, instinct-> logic-> inspiration, changes from more to less in people's lives (more instinct, less logic, less inspiration), but from self From the point of view of the importance of evolution, on the contrary, only instinct evolves less (or just the natural selection of the survival of the fittest), logic can evolve at a certain rate (our history of science can almost be said to be in this logic Under the general category), but the explosion of inspiration will make human history show a sudden leap-the stage of inspiration in the West: the Renaissance, which laid the history of the explosion of Western science in the following hundreds of years (Renaissance It did not directly lead to Western prosperity, but Western prosperity and the Renaissance were inseparable); and the massive inspiration of the East over two thousand years ago: the hundreds of schools of children directly created the East for an absolute strong in the following two thousand years. The attitude of the person stands proudly in the world.

Okay, let ’s collect the heroic heart of national pride first, do n’t forget that we are talking about the distinction between true and false: even so, we know that the human brain has three calculation methods: instinct cannot see the world ( Mainly for survival), logical deduction is flawed and difficult to learn, and inspiration, such an inexplicable and vague thing, can not directly promote people to realize the real reality.

In this way, we can only have a relatively pessimistic conclusion, that is, in the process of understanding this world, we humans no matter from our sense organs of the world: six senses, or our sense tools: macro (cosmic level) , Micro (quantum level), Takara (level of consciousness), and the calculation methods we feel: instinct, logic, inspiration, are all inadequate.

This shortcoming has caused "error" in our understanding of the real world. This kind of error is what Zhou Yuan said: false.

Zhou Yuan and the book have repeatedly stated that this fake is not lying, not wrong, not intentionally telling lies (this must be distinguished), nor evil, not ugly, but people's own feelings about the real world-change In other words, this fake is the "false" projection of the "real" real world in people's minds because of the limited sense organs, limited tools, and limited methods in the process of people's understanding of the world.

But within a certain period of time, we humans call this "false" projection "truth."

To a certain extent, people think that Aristotle's thought is "truth"

In the following days, people thought that the geocentric theory was "truth"

Later, people thought heliocentric theory was "truth"

Then people thought that gravity was "truth"

Then people thought that quantum mechanics was "truth" (by the way, many views on quantum mechanics, Einstein was very disagreeable, then Einstein, from the subversive of Newton's "false reason", became a The defender of his theory.)

In each of the above, when the "truth" of each era appears, it is a subversion, a reversal, a reconstruction, and a proof of the "false" principle.

In other words: The so-called "truth" recognized by the human world is nothing but the truth of the existence of the nether world. Within a certain time and space, the "projection" in the human world. This projection is not the whole appearance of true truth, but like Different parts of an elephant, we humans are blind people who touch the elephant. In the long river of time and space, we constantly touch different parts of the elephant, and then in different time and space, we can draw different "truths" of this elephant. It is a "false appearance".

The above is a more serious explanation. If the Buddhist scriptures are applied, it is: everything works, like a dream bubble ...

The above is the distinction between true and false discussed in "The Gods Talk."

Similar discussions are generally very metaphysical, and are easily taken away by some "cults", so Mu Yu tries to explain through the various stories and the existence of the stories throughout the book that this fake is not true and false , But an objective process by which mankind understands the world, not the falseness of the objective world. In other words, in the short term it looks like absolute is absolute, but in the long run it looks like false is relative:

The fake of "Fake Manjusri" is because Xue Shen medical used a double-layer (multi-layer) "brain in a cylinder" design, which blinded the true heart. It looks fake to outsiders, but its original intention is true. At the end, the real Hui Jian appeared and presented it to Zhou Yuan. (instinct)

The three levels of consciousness of human, earth, and universe are unable to observe the real world due to the limitation of the level of observation tools, but they gradually understand the real world between the contrasts of different consciousnesses: Haoning Tianjie Tianshi The teacher and Haoning look at Hong Atom and the God of Incense, and Haoning looks at inspiration through the long time of Haoran. (tool)

Various roles are constantly evolving and accepting new ways of thinking to break their own limitations. (Besides logic, there are hearts and inspirations)

In other words, "Lord of the Gods" proposes another set of thinking solutions under the natural thinking that humans cannot "really" understand the world because of the limitations of senses, tools, and thinking methods: the self-evolution of ethnic groups The ethnic group continues to live.

This is the question that Liu Shuai answered with a biological major in the last chapter of the novel: Why didn't humans choose the evolutionary method of immortality?

The answer given by Liu Shuai is: to die. If human beings live forever, they will not evolve.

From death to death, Liu Shuai proposed twice.

The first time was when I looked at Zhou Yuan, who had lost his soul, and explained his state of "The Walking Dead" at the time (In the first season, everyone recalled or looked for themselves. In order to avoid suspicion of the word count, Mu Yu is not writing it again here)

The second time was when Liu Shuai was raised this question of immortality again after everyone died.

From a biological point of view, Liu Shuai puts forward his own understanding: the conscious self-evolutionary behavior of an individual who lives towards death will cause the possibility of immortality in the macro ethnic group.

How to understand this sentence?

Because an individual of an ethnic group will die, this individual of this ethnic group naturally has to seek survival, better survival, and even longer survival time (close to eternal life), so it will continue to develop its own individual ( In the process, as long as the individuals of this group have self-consciousness, and are not passively selected by the laws of nature, they are consciously undergoing self-evolution to avoid future disasters. If this is the case, then this group is not only in the present, but also the group most likely to live forever in the future-that is, Liu Shuai said, in exchange for sacrificing the life of the individual in exchange for the life of the group (or the possibility of evolution)

In response to this concept, the novel has also discussed elsewhere:

For example, because of the panic Zhou Yuan who lost his "death" (after Zhou Yuan lost his soul, his body was cut for a period of time without pain), he also lost the meaning of living, or he became like a walking dead.

For example, Fei Changfang wants to turn all people into gods, and in the absence of people, gods will not evolve again (in fact, we can imagine that if all people became incense gods, and if they did not die, they were more likely The incident is that everyone no longer realizes the consciousness of the earth, or the possibility of the macroscopic consciousness of the universe, of course, this is only speculation.)

For example, Haoran told Honing the meaning of the inspiration system: the human race and the more conscious self-evolution under the screening of the inspiration system (looking to the future). ——Horan can tell Hooring that this evolutionary method is likely to be based on the super macro consciousness of the cosmic level of Horan, and see other "synapses", that is, the evolutionary methods of other planets, and similar evolutionary methods. Or has there ever been a similar efficient evolutionary way?

In short, no matter what kind, it raises the possibility that although in a certain period of time, the "truth" obtained by human beings is nothing more than the "projection" (fake) of the true truth in this space-time, as long as This ethnic group has enough evolutionary consciousness, and this ethnic group can live forever, even if humans have many limitations (sensory, tools, thinking methods, etc.), it will eventually restore the "projection" (false) of this truth to the true truth.

In this process, there may be a fake (Zhou Yuan), there may be repetition (comfort), there may be a delusion (fee Changfang), there may be an adherent of the existing method (Huo Ning), but as long as the direction is the continuous evolution of the ethnic group The survival of ~ www.readwn.com ~ will eventually evolve to find that "truth".

This is what this novel hopes to elaborate: the distinction between true and false.

This is why, after the final false reality changing earth, together with Fei Changfang ’s Zhuxianjian annihilation, Zhou Yuan changed from a “fake” circle of gods to a real “wukong”: because he realized that false is empty The truth is also empty, but it is because of the real enlightenment that "emptiness" has become the real enlightenment.

After all, although false is a real projection, as long as there is enough time and evolution is enough, the false end will be empty, and by then, the distinction between true and false may not be so important.

At this point, Mu Yu spent 30,000 to 40,000 words to explain the macro structure of the whole novel, including the world view, including the evolution theme that he hopes to talk about, and the speculation on the level of true and false. The subsequent postscript, the book will be Do some interpretation of the key points of some details in the book. After all, everyone who has read here has read the whole book, so there is no spoiler problem. We just take out some points to confirm each other. See each of us want to express this book. The "truth" is compared with the "projection" in their respective hearts to see if they are consistent.

Thank you all.
