Hello everyone, welcome to join the empty nagging, today, let's talk about fortune telling.
▾
Q: Cico, what do you think about this?
C: It's a big problem, both big and small.
This kind of fortune telling, fortune telling, and all kinds of deception in business and politics — sorry — let's use the word "deception" directly, because it is indeed deception.
But this deception is a bit deep, and at the level of human consciousness, this deception itself is a danger.
The matter of fortune telling and fortune telling itself is actually a very dangerous thing, and for many people, it is a big head to talk about, because it brings a lot of confusion, and the brain may not be able to eliminate it at once.
Today, we are here to take a look at this topic together _ this topic that bothers many people. Go and see how such a deception was able to deceive humanity for thousands of years.
This divination is not only found in China, but also in other cultures. What is fate? What is fate?
What kind of people are these people who want to pursue fate, or who want to tell fortunes? We have to see this clearly, because this "fortune telling" is not just these two words themselves, but a whole set of human interactions, human habits of thinking.
If you can't see those things clearly, just look at the two words "fortune telling", the brain will inevitably be confused.
What kind of psychological motivation is it for those who go to fortune telling, who want to be counted by others?
Is it to pursue a sense of certainty, a sense of certainty in life? In the face of the so-called unknown of life, the heart is shaking, hoping to have a confident statement, wondering what will happen in the future.
This means that this person, such a brain, lives entirely in the past. This brain is filled with all sorts of experiences and experiences, each of which is crocheted by the protagonist "me." This "me" is also constantly creating new experiences and experiences.
In such a self-centered lifestyle, everything becomes very mechanical. Because this "I" itself corresponds to a variety of routines, the routines themselves are mechanical.
This ego has a routine, which means that the behavior of the ego can be observed and predicted, and then this observation and prediction will become a trick.
▸
Q: That is to say, this routine has been running in this person's brain, in the past ta was in accordance with this routine for people to deal with people, if ta does not extinguish it, then ta will still follow this set of people in the future to treat people and things, continue this set of circuits.
C: Yes, so this kind of life, such a person, he himself is mechanically alive.
To live mechanically means to have a regularity to follow, to observe, and that naturally becomes a handle for others to use.
In addition, we also said well, this so-called experience, ah, are all crocheted by ideas.
This self is formed within the framework of such a society, bound by various opinions, ideologies, conclusions, beliefs, and superstitions;
It is such a self that writes about such a so-called experience, which is different from the whole nervous system, its experience, its perception.
The entire brain is made up of hundreds of billions of neurons, and at every moment, this nervous system exhibits a variety of rich perceptions.
But people who live in ideas interpret through ideas, and the very limited perceptions and sensations that this idea can feel at the level of consciousness.
Then, under such a social framework, under the combined effect of various traditional concepts, various views, beliefs, and conclusions, such an illusion of so-called experience is presented.
Q: What most people are confused about is that there are often rumors that say, "Oh, it's pretty accurate, as soon as we meet, I tell me what I'm doing, I tell you what I'm doing, and so on.
Of course, whether these things are true or false is not clear.
In short, when these rumors arise, some people are a little confused, how to see these rumors?
C: First of all, you see that such a life experience, the past, is made up of text pictures, what does this mean?
It means that such an experience, such a life, can be modified, can be affected, can be reshaped, and this has also become the part that can be used in the process of fortune telling and fortune telling.
Various verbal cues, verbal cues, to influence the perceiver of the person being calculated as he or she has this so-called experience.
After this influence, hey, the person who was reckoned actually agreed with this statement of the reckoner, saying, What you said is really right, what you said is really accurate.
But this is full of all kinds of influences, being manipulated, being teased, the person who is calculated is not aware of it, but the only thing that the person who is calculated is to say, oh, good accuracy, and then spread it, and tell others, ah, it is good to calculate.
Observe why you are interested when others share such a picture? Observe such a pattern of behavior. Why is the brain interested in this, interested in this picture?
If the brain is interested in this picture, the brain cannot fully observe.
Q: Because the brain doesn't seem to have completely denied fortune telling. If it is completely denied, when you hear these news, you may not have any doubts.
Maybe I have a vague feeling in my heart, can I really figure it out?
C: Did we already say that? It is full of words, verbal expressions, and all kinds of hints to manipulate the person being calculated.
Q: You just mentioned a word called "quasi", heck, the calculation is really accurate, what does this "quasi" mean?
C: I fooled you, and as a result, you were fooled into agreeing with me, and you thought it was very "accurate."
You want to calculate the gua, which means that you want to pursue a sense of confirmation, then this kind of person itself will be completely in the idea, there are very obvious thinking routines, behavior patterns, then the gua gua naturally has these observation "ability", can see these patterns, naturally can roughly infer the information of the person being calculated.
This person who is counted thinks that this information belongs to his personal information, but in fact, it is not. This person who is counted, he shares the same circuit, the same pattern with many other people.
But everyone feels unique, and every self feels unique.
So, under this kind of deception of "thinking that you are unique", others say, oh, really accurate, so accurate, you see, self-deception has appeared again.
So, two levels:
First, this kind of fortune-teller often lives completely in the mind, the pattern is very clear, and various thinking patterns are very typical.
Second, this kind of person is very easy to be manipulated, toyed with, influenced, and implied.
Q: Because when the mind is always attached to some pictures, some language. This perception is easily shaken, very ethereal, and it is not as stable as the perception after emptying the heart.
The idea is this: for example, when two people have a good relationship, they have a lot of good expectations and expectations for the future; once they quarrel, all kinds of bad pictures come again, and the idea is always easy to change.
C: So under the left and right of these two aspects, this fortune teller has a great chance of winning, and the fortune teller only attracts this kind of person, right?
You say, a person who doesn't live in his mind at all, who is going to do the math?
A person who seriously explores the heart, who will do the calculations?
If a person wants to do the math, the person himself is very active in himself, completely living in thoughts, seeking to be confirmed, being convinced, as long as there is a desire, you will fall into the trap.
Q: And there's a little bit of a faint fear here, right? For the fear of the unknown, do not know what is going to happen, want to know what is going to happen, think about how to prepare in advance, is there also such a mentality?
C: Necessarily, the brain lives in the mind, there must be fear. So, this fear will be toyed with, teased, and affected by others, right? Then I heard the good words of others and agreed with them myself.
It's a very complex, very confusing mental game.
So, for everyone, if you live in your thoughts, if your brain is still bound by various pictures, then when others share such an experience, the brain is easily confused and affected by this picture.
Why is this fortune telling able to spread so widely? The reckoner usually speaks a little vaguely, but this listener, the reckoner himself, wow, you're so accurate.
You see, it's all self-deception.
As long as a person lives in self-deception, he will be deceived, and all kinds of deception will happen.
Question: The basis of the existence of the fortune teller, it seems that people always feel that this fate exists, what do you think of fate?
Is it that people think that there is a theory of fate, and there is some confusion about it, so they will calculate it?
C: This shows that this person cannot and will not observe himself at all, and is completely dependent on the so-called authority, and here the reckoner has become an authority, to be told, to be confirmed.
This so-called "life" is also an idea, as long as you live in the ego, there is a life, because the ego is a very mechanical thing.
Mechanical things mean that there are rules to follow, there are evidences to check, that is, fate, are some descriptions of text pictures.
And after we have experienced some things, we have made up a story for ourselves, a set of statements.
You see, as small as a person looking for an explanation for his past, as large as a national organization, he is also beautifying history, doing the same thing, the same nature.
See this set of self-deception, see it clearly, and decisively deny it.
Real life is not hijacked by pictures.
A life that lives in the truth is to live in this moment and live well for a moment.
Such a life has no destiny, only the beauty of life.
C: When we talk about this, we have to see this reckoning, and the reckoners, cooperating to continue to make this self-deception run.
From the self's point of view, these problems can never be seen, nor can they be seen clearly, and only one person really and truly let go of the self, and all this naturally surfaces.
A sober person stays away from these things, and the reason for staying away is because he sees it clearly, so he no longer touches this thing and decisively denies it.
A person who lives completely in the moment and does not pursue any certainty is a truly confident person, full of conviction.
This is not a beautiful set of statements, but facts, which require everyone to live this way and verify it personally.
Q: Okay, then about the things about the counting, let's talk about this, the above is the empty nagging of this issue, we will meet next time.
C: We'll see you next time.
