What's important in the human mind?

20250909

What's  important in the human mind?




It seems that we are limited beings.   We have a short life span and we are living in a limited space.


But actually, we are unlimited beings. 


Although every single unit seems to be limited,  but the grand total is going on.


It's logical to think that there must be some even bigger grand total on top of our universe and therefore the future is not measurable.


There is no "outside" outside our universe.  


Because what is outside is still outside.


And not easily imaginable is inside. 


There must be another "inside"  within your inside.   And it is logical to think,   there will be no end in the multiple insides.


It is only common sense.  But it took thousands of years of  civilizations  to think about it.


It's all due to only one thing in our mind.


We are accustomed to the limited spheres in life.


If life is unlimited, then no one is dying.


We are like chains.   It is continuous.   It is short in a single life circle,  but there will be no end in it.


Do you believe you were here one thousand years ago?


And you'll be here one thousand years later,  or more.


The units of life cannot be counted as you and me.


You and me will be there in the future together,  it is the same that we were there like before.


You and me are only a small unit in the chains of lives.  


You and me were there and will be there together.


You need to leave your own small unit to think about this.


If you can stay in a grand unit,  then you can see the grand future is coming and you were coming from the past.


It is just like an apple.


You were the same as an apple ten thousand years ago,   and you will be there ten thousand years later,  or an unlimited future later.


You will be a future creature.


And you will be a future you.


But you cannot remember yourself in history.   Simple memories are not important.   Important is the inner memory of yourself from the very old times.


Everyone can believe about this if their mind is quiet.


You are coming from an unlimited before and you are going to an unlimited future.


We are only in the mid-way.


Why is it important?


Yes, you will have a stronger mind if you believe that you have a past and you are sure to have a future.


We are long and we are not short.


It means we'll have a future.


It is for the imagination to think that something will happen in the future,  and you can be excited but not  worried.


It means you can sing and dance in history and in future.




note:


Life is a continuation.


There is no real death in life as life will be going on in another stage.  


One stage will end and the next stage will be coming.


This is important in the human mind.


Humans can think better  with this concept.  They can envisage a future better.

野雞的故事 ( 獻給勇敢的人)

野雞的故事

( 獻給勇敢的人)

問題是:如果你看不見自己,你看見甚麼?

      *   *   *

 每一隻小雞,最初來到世界上的時候,都只有
一口氣。這是聰明的古埃及王子阿肯那頓
(Akhenaten) 觀察到的。他發現每一隻蛋,都有
一點空氣在裡面。他相信,這是給小雞第一次呼
吸用的。

上帝給了你生命,還加上一口氣,你怎辦?

莊子說,你必須抉擇。因為:沒有上帝,就沒
有我。沒有我,就沒有抉擇。

而阿肯那頓說,你必須用盡全力。

其實每一隻小雞,都是用盡全力的。如果不用
盡全力,就不能抵達世界。你可以想像小雞的環
境。外面是橙黃色的溫暖光芒。一切希望,都在
那外面的光裡。小雞必須打破囚籠。小雞只有一
種奮鬥思想,不會恐懼,亦不會偷懶。

 如果是人,知道只有一口氣,就可能放棄。但
小雞沒有任何其他思想。小雞會拼盡全力,啄出
去。

你必須抉擇。而你最好的抉擇,就是全力以赴。
這是兩位大哲的教訓。

小雞的第一次奮鬥,是必須把蛋殼啄破。他必
須全力以赴,否則不可能抵達世界。但這只是第
一層次。

小雞馬上發覺,他來到了另外一個囚籠。小雞
默默觀察,很快,小雞知道,不久,就要面臨所
有其他雞的相同命運。人會來到,把自己送上宰
場。

 小雞夢想看看世界。

 其他的雞,不斷嘲笑。說那是不可能的夢想。

小雞終於找到空隙,鼓起最大力量,飛上了屋
頂。小雞看到了外面。外面是平疇萬頃,沃野千
里。小雞心情興奮,引吭高歌。

 歌聲把人引來了,要把小雞縛赴刑場。其他雞
幸災樂禍,都說他自取其辱。小雞說:我已經看
到外面的世界。你們看得到嗎?你們不用受宰嗎?

這故事有第二結局。

 那人被小雞的精神感動了。就不宰這小雞,讓
他作一隻司晨雞。

 但無論甚麼結局,都令人想到,生命是有限的。
而在有限之前,你必須突破。這就是第二層次。

 小雞的故事,尚有第三種結局。

 小雞逃出囚籠,但沒有被人捉到,亦沒有被徵
召作一隻司晨的雞,而是變為一隻山中的野雞。

 那是一場致命的奔跑。

 小野雞的翅膀,其實並未完全長成。他只能
甩毛甩翼地亂奔。

 在一個隱秘的深處,他俯視遍身傷痕的自己,
那咯咯咯咯的嘲弄,仍不絕在耳邊迴響。他的
籠中同伴,此刻正在愉快地享用晚餐,並且慎
重地互相告誡:不要仿效野雞。

 他決心想要學飛。這是雞的出路。也沒有任
何老師可以教他。方法只有撲翼。他不斷的撲。
這是群雞己經忘記了的動作。

 許久之後,才有人發現這個重要的秘訣:

 發揮自己的長處,就是出路。

 終於,他飛起來了。越過山谷,飛過田野。
晨光曦微,快樂歡欣。這種快樂,是只有突破
自私的牢籠,才能得到的。
