In the afternoon, I fell asleep with the teacher Sun Yan's [1235 Extreme Achievement Training Camp], and woke up to watch the movie homework assigned by Sun Yan-"The Dark Tower".
The film mainly talks about a universe that we can't perceive: in the "middle world", there is a towering dark tower. The dark tower is the center of all universes, connecting six light beams responsible for maintaining the balance of the universe. Six pillars of light support it. If the pillar of light is completely destroyed, the dark tower will fall, and all the worlds it maintains will also be destroyed. There are twelve entrances to the poles of the pillar of light, which are the twelve ends of the world There are twelve guardians near the entrance, some of them are humans or beasts.
1. About magic
Positive and evil, light and darkness, positive energy and negative energy have been constantly fighting.
Teacher Sun Yan reminded us that after reading it carefully, we will know how demons exist and how they attack us all the time.
The demons here have many changes. Sometimes they turn into aggressive beasts, sometimes they turn into unrecognizable people, and more often they come from our inner fear and anger.
The teachers have been telling us about greed, hatred, ignorance and suspicion. When the protagonist’s family was killed, the anger was overwhelmed, and the demons instantly gained the upper hand.
Gradually, I realized what the teachers had always said to keep the mood calm, not happy or fearless, and understand why self-cultivation is the foundation of resistance to everything.
2. About Ling
The spirit is Jack's weapon. I understand the spirit here as pure mind, which can be linked to another world in the parallel universe. It is the [mind force] that we have been learning.
The spirit has an innate talent, and it also needs its own continuous practice and protection. One thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a devil.
As the creed of the gun god in the movie said: "I don’t aim with my hand. The person aiming with my hand has forgotten his father’s face, I aim with my eyes; I don’t shoot with my hand, and the person shooting with my hand has forgotten. I used my brain to shoot when he lost his father’s face; I don’t have to shoot someone. The person who killed someone with the gun has forgotten his father’s face, and I kill with my heart."
Roland said that every time I read these, my thoughts can be calmed down. I think of the [Tai Shang Induction Chapter] and [Heart Sutra] that we were reading recently, washing and baptizing in the subconscious, so that our hearts are calm as water, and we find our own strength.
3. About the mission
Everyone is born with his own mission. For example, the mission of the gun god is to guard the dark tower and guard the world.
When we are overwhelmed by hatred, demons, etc., we will only live in the pain of revenge and lust. And when we find our mission back, we will be able to generate endless power.
Four, about confidence
In the face of things that we can't see and cannot explain, we will always subconsciously doubt it. In fact, there is nothing wrong with it. After all, we live to pursue a sense of security and self-protection.
The words Jack said to Roland touched me in particular. "Your world has collapsed and destroyed, but there is hope in my world."
Looking around, in this materialistic world, countless people around me are slowly lost in external demands and self-certification, while the teachers are still working silently.
It also understood in an instant that we might not do anything, just sit quietly and think about good things in our hearts, and pray for the world, even if we have made a great contribution.
Five, about silent protection
"You guard the world, I guard you." Deep in the three-dimensional world, we may never know the truth behind many things. We can only explain it by natural disasters or phenomena such as earthquakes, tsunamis, and solar particles.
We don’t know if this is the result of a fierce battle in an unknown world and space.
I only know that where we can’t see, there will be countless missionaries guarding us silently, awakening our souls, and letting us know that we are self-sufficient.
May the world be peaceful, may peace and joy, and may everything be well.
