Luo Kai buried his head in the sand and stretched his chin to drag his stiff body. It might have taken him an hour or even longer, but his body finally moved an inch or so. He hid his head under the cool reeds. His face didn't have to endure the sun's rays, but the rest of his body was free to do as he pleased.
In his limited waking time, Luo Kai couldn't help but recall the past. Strictly speaking, he was recalling the events of his previous life. Perhaps people would recall the meaning of this life before they died, and Luo Kai was no exception. He remembered a person he met when he was young, a super beauty.
It was a philosophy lecture at the University of Oxford in England. As a professor at a well-known university in China, Luo Kai was fortunate enough to attend the lecture. Philosophy was a subject that few people in China were willing to devote themselves to, and he was only there to gain some experience.
This kind of academic lecture would definitely make a layman sleepy. Although Luo Kai wasn't a layman at that time, his mind wasn't on it at all. His mind was completely attracted by a beautiful woman. At that time, Luo Kai had an identity and status that ordinary people would never be able to reach in their lifetime. He had never lacked female friends, but he had never seen such an outstanding beauty.
For men, the definition of beauty was generally pleasing to the eye, the definition of beauty was coveted, and the definition of super beauty was that one could only look at from afar and not touch. This was a super beauty. She was of mixed Chinese and Western descent, with long wavy hair like clouds. She had the gentle and graceful beauty of an Eastern woman, but also the enchanting charm of a Western woman.
What surprised him was the identity of this beautiful woman. She was the lecturer of that lecture. This lecture had gathered elites from all over the world. It could be said that it was the world's top academic conference. Those who attended this lecture were not ordinary people, let alone the lecturer.
Her name only had two English letters: "JK." It was more like a code name than a name. The topic of the lecture was: "Spirit."
Her voice was a little hoarse, as if it had some kind of magnetism, and people couldn't help but listen.
She first recited a passage from the Bible: "In the beginning, God created heaven and earth.
The earth was empty and chaotic, the abyss was dark, and only God's spirit moved on the surface of the water.
God said, "Let there be light!" So there was light.
God separated the light from the darkness. He called the light day and the darkness night.
Foreigners always liked to promote their beliefs. Just when Luo Kai was a little annoyed, she finally got to the point.
The topic of the lecture was very strange. It was "Spirit!"
The spirit that this spirit referred to was not the "spirit" that was used to convey certain documents, but the real spirit.
"The term 'spirit' comes from China. In ancient China, the key point of facial reading is to look at a person's essence, Qi, and spirit. Essence represents energy, Qi represents momentum, and Spirit represents charm. They are all relatively illusory. According to modern words, people who are energetic and full of confidence are more likely to succeed, and confidence is the external manifestation of a person's spirit and will.
In the West, Freud divided the mind into three realms: ego, id, and superego. It was the process of one's attitude toward others and the growth of the spiritual ladder.
She paused in the middle of the lecture, and her beautiful eyes suddenly revealed a trace of sadness. She sighed deeply. That sigh was full of indescribable melancholy, which was still fresh in Luo Kai's memory.
She was silent for a long time, and when she spoke again, she had recovered her calmness. "These three realms are all centered around 'me'. Human's cognition of the outside world also originates from 'me'. In short, consciousness determines matter. This' me 'fulfills human civilization, and at the same time, it is the shackle that binds human beings!"
…
This kind of academic lecture was very boring. If it were not for such a beautiful lecturer, Luo Kai might have already skipped the class.
After that, she began to tell some stories. "I have done quite a bit of research on psychological hypnosis. A few years ago, I conducted an experiment. In the experiment, I hypnotized an ordinary person. I tried to bring him into the deepest dream. I told him that his house was on fire, and he was accidentally scalded because he was busy putting out the fire. In reality, a miraculous scene happened. His body actually showed signs of being scalded. His skin was red and swollen, and even blisters appeared on his skin."
At that time, all the people present were big shots in various fields, and they all scoffed at this kind of experiment. At that time, someone refuted, "Impossible, this does not conform to the law of conservation of energy."
She did not explain anything. "What I can tell you is that this is the manifestation of the mind materialization. Let me tell you another case. A patient with terminal lung cancer was dying, but one day, the hospital came out with a new drug that was said to be able to cure cancer. After taking the drug, the patient was actually cured. The new drug was actually just an ordinary vitamin tablet."
The short story was very interesting, but what did it have to do with the mind?
Luo Kai was fascinated by the story. He also stood up and asked, "Teacher, what is the reason for this?"
She turned her gaze to Luo Kai and said in a deep voice, "This is the power of 'me'. It can also be said to be the external manifestation of the mind. As long as you believe in something, no matter how impossible it is, it will happen. Or rather, as long as you believe in the truth of something, it might really become the truth.
God said: let there be light, so there is light!
In a sense, this is the principle. "
"The mind originates from the consciousness, and it can be called 'me'. When the mind is strong enough, everything in the outside world will not change according to my will. Everything will come to fruition."
She gently raised her head and looked at the sky outside the window. Her lilac eyes were filled with confusion. She seemed to be concluding, but also seemed to be talking to herself. "I call it the power of God. This may be … the only way to break free from the shackles of mankind."
The philosophy lecture inexplicably turned into a metaphysics lecture. This matter was quickly forgotten by Luo Kai. Later, he was not satisfied with learning, and entered the business world. He did many things that went against his conscience. Now that he thought about it, everything he had experienced in the past year was karma.
…
Perhaps it was the final radiance of the setting sun, but Luo Kai's consciousness became clearer and clearer. Some memories hidden in the depths of his mind kept surging. He even remembered the scene when he was two or three years old when he was learning to walk. He vaguely remembered the sweetness of sex and the warmth of his mother's womb, until his consciousness returned to the darkness of nothingness.
God did not want Luo Kai to die so comfortably. He was saved by a lame old fisherman. Strictly speaking, it was a dog that saved him. It was a dirty old dog that suffered from severe alopecia. The old dog held his hair in its mouth and dragged him out of the reeds. The dazzling sunlight woke him up again.
After the old dog carried him out, it ran away happily. He was so angry that he finally hid his head under the reeds.
The scorching sunlight accelerated the dissipation of his consciousness until a pair of strong arms picked him up.
