Some great monks can even enter into samadhi for a long time without sleeping. Don’t think that in samadhi, they just sit and fall asleep. In samadhi, they are very clear in their minds, and they can even observe the world through supernatural powers! For advanced practitioners, meditation is a real rest.

On the second and third days, the realms of Green Wings and Xuanyuan Xing made rapid progress. On the afternoon of the third day, they broke through the "future Zen" realm, entered the "first meditation heaven", and gained the feeling of happiness of leaving the desire realm.

However, Zhang Fan still had no body and mind, without any progress. The only progress was that Zhang Fan seemed to have entered the state of unreversible "future Zen". Because at any time, he could enter this state of tranquility without any obstacles. Even when going to the toilet or eating, the same is true.

This is not a bad thing in some ways, but it seems that few people who can enter the state of non-regression cannot continue to go deeper into a higher level. You should know that after reaching a state of non-regression, you can at least easily reach the state of higher level of meditation above the third level based on this foundation. For example, Zhang Fan's current situation has never happened before.

On the fourth day, Green Wings were stabilizing the realm of the "First Meditation Heaven", and Xuanyuan Star easily broke through and reached the "Two Meditation Heaven" realm, and obtained a kind of tranquility happiness after entering into samadhi, called the "Joy of Concentration". This feeling of happiness is the feeling of tranquility that arises from the body and mind, and forgets all the troubles of the world. It goes deeper with the "First Meditation Heaven" that is far away from the world! It is like a person has just walked to a quiet place, getting the happiness of being away from the tranquility of the troubles, and having been in a quiet place for a long time and forgets all the troubles of the troubles, of course, the latter is deeper.

In the next three days, Green Wings also entered the realm of "Two Chronicles Heaven". Xuanyuan Xing kept wandering in this realm. He only entered into meditation once and barely experienced the realm of "Three Chronicles Heaven", but it was very unstable and he quickly retreated to the "Two Chronicles Heaven". Because the feeling of the third Chronicles Heaven is the realm of "free from joy and wonderful happiness".

In this state, he actually gave up his joy and got a very subtle happiness. But Xuanyuan Xing did not grasp this feeling and came out of meditation. He liked the tranquility feeling of the second meditation heaven very much. But the Zen master immediately let him withdraw from the tranquility realm because Xuanyuan Xing's desire to be greedy for tranquility is actually very dangerous. He is easily possessed by a kind of demon and enters the evil path.

Compared with the second level of the Heavenly Realm of Green Wings, it is more stable than Xuanyuan Star. Because Green Wings does not seek tranquility and only regards this as a process of practice.

This is the benefit of having Zen masters guided by the side. As long as they look at the person who enters the state of meditation, they can know what kind of meditation state he has entered and whether he has encountered the demon of his mind. Correct the mistakes of the meditation in time. Next, Xuanyuan Xing was asked by the Zen master to consolidate in the state of the first level of meditation and repeatedly understand the meaning of meditation. The second level of meditation can only be tasted briefly, and once they enter, they must immediately get out of meditation.

While Green Wings and Xuanyuan Star were progressing rapidly, Zhang Fan still refused to retreat in the realm of "Future Zen" that was forgotten both body and mind, and showed no sign of being promoted to a higher level. This made the two Zen masters puzzled.

However, Zhang Fan did not have much attachment. Since this is the case, he might not be suitable for practicing this meditation method for the time being. Anyway, he was able to not regress in "future meditation". In some ways, it was much better than Green Wings and Xuanyuan Xing not reaching the unregressive state in any situation.

After the first day of Zen July, Zhang Fan contacted Akan. Unexpectedly, this guy was forced by his senior brother to practice meditation and breathe, and cultivate the Taoist foundation. Moreover, it was seven days for fasting practice! This day was the last day of fasting, and he had not yet come out of seclusion. The phone was answered by the senior brother who was guarding outside the Zen room. I guess this kid would be so hungry that he would not have the strength to reply to the call.

Akan's senior brother asked Zhang Fan and the others to go halfway to pick him up, because he calculated that Akan would encounter danger this time when he went down the mountain. Zhang Fan and the other two were shocked and agreed immediately. Then he said goodbye to the Bodhi Tree Spirit and the old Zen master.

Zhang Fan gave a great gift, and the old Zen master said to him, "Come here, I will stroke you..." Zhang Fan immediately stepped forward respectfully. The old Zen master put his hand on Zhang Fan's head, closed his eyes, and chanted the Buddha mantra softly.

Zhang Fan felt a cool and warm feeling, which was connected from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, which was very comfortable. The old Zen master stopped his hand and smiled at Zhang Fan, "So that's it. Have you practiced the seven-consciousness method of liberation before? Or the Brahmanism's "Brahma and I One" meditation?"

Zhang Fan's heart moved and nodded immediately and replied: "Yes, both of these can be considered practicing. I have been upholding the Hindu 'Brahma Divine Plate' and felt the state of 'Brahma I-One'..."

The old Zen master smiled and nodded, "You have a high understanding. Not only have you felt the "Brahma and I one", but you have reached the "No Thoughtful Heaven" in the form realm, but you have also broken through this level and experienced the "Brahma and I forgot both of you"! So you are practicing the "Zhen Seven" here, and the state is confused. What you are always in is not the "Future Zen" realm, but the "No Thoughtful Stomatism" of the heretics!"

"I have always been in the 'no-thought concentration'?" Zhang Fan was shocked because this 'no-thought concentration' is a kind of meditation that eliminates all thoughts in the Brahmins' for the sake of seeking the retribution of the heavenly remedies of the heaven of no-thought. If he is always in the state of meditation, he will think that 'no-thought concentration' is ultimate, the highest state and cannot continue to improve himself, and cannot produce the wonderful uses of others. Then a person's good roots will be cut off and even become indifferent and ruthless, without compassion, compassion, and even without wisdom.

The old Zen master shook his head and smiled and said, "In fact, the realm you are in is one level higher than the "No Thoughtful Stomatism", but he has not reached the "No Trouble Heaven" state of "Five Pure Heavens". Because the heretics "No Thoughtful Stomatism" pretends to destroy the six consciousnesses and cling to "I". And you have practiced the method of liberation of the seven consciousnesses, so the realm has been improved by one level, leaving "No Thoughtful Stomatism" and reaching the "Brahma and I forgot both Brahma and I". But he cannot make progress. This is because the state of meditation has deviations and is stuck in the state between the "Four Meditation Heavens" and the "Five Pure Heavens", and cannot go up and down. It is like walking into a dead end..."

Zhang Fan was very panicked. Once this meditation was deviated, he would fall into an abyss that would never be restored. So he kowtowed to ask the old Zen master, "Please save me, what should I do?"

The old Zen master said with a smile: "Actually, you don't have to panic. With your good roots, you won't fall into the devil's path. You just need to retreat from this realm, find yourself again, and then embark on the right path. It's not that scary. Even if you stay in this advanced realm of "nothingness", it's not a bad thing. Experience it well will be beneficial to your future practice."

Then the old Zen master paused, took out a board of incense, and knocked it on Zhang Fan's head three times, "Remember, everything goes with the flow, don't be attached." After that, he took the Bodhi tree spirit to retreat into the meditation room.

Zhang Fan knelt in front of the Buddha, but did not get up for a moment, and his mind fell into meditation of forgetting both body and mind. It was not until a breeze blew across the hall and blew his clothes. Several dead leaves flew past him, and then Zhang Fan came out of meditation. Picking up the dead leaves, pinching them gently, the dead leaves made a "patter" sound. Zhang Fan seemed to have a hint of enlightenment...

Green yi and Xuanyuan Xing stood in the courtyard, waiting quietly for Zhang Fan without any urging. After practicing meditation, their personalities became indifferent, as if there was nothing to hang on their hearts and make them bothered.

"Let's go..." Zhang Fan walked out of the hall and came to the courtyard.

"Solved?" Green Wing asked casually.

"It doesn't matter if it's not a solution..." Zhang Fan was very calm, letting Green Yi close his eyes, and he couldn't even feel his existence.

(This large plot mainly describes the level and meditation state of the six realms of reincarnation in Buddhism through the Bodhi tree spirit and the seven-day meditation practices of Zhang Fan and the three people. Because the meditation state is very profound, it must reach the corresponding state from all aspects of the body and mind, and Weixi has never experienced any state, so it is written in a more general way. However, as long as it is a fantasy or supernatural novel, it is impossible to leave this cultural background. I can only write it with a bit of the bullet. I hope to forgive me if I don’t have any.)

Akan kowtowed to the head of Maoshan, and saw that the head of the head had no more instructions, he got up and went down the mountain. Maoshan is a tourist attraction, and there is a bus leading to City C at the foot of the mountain, which is very convenient. Perhaps it was the off-season that there was no one in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. Several buses were idle, Akan asked, because he was the only one and didn't drive.

While hesitating, a bus driver was shouting loudly: "It's been driven! It's been driven! No one is driving too!"

Akan was very lucky and ran over and said loudly, "Someone! Someone!" As he said that, he jumped into the car. The driver saw that there was no one else, so he got in and started the car. Seeing that he was really the only one in the car, he was very empty, so he found a seat and sat down. He smiled and said to the driver, "You lost money today, uncle, I turned into a chartered car. I paid more for the car." The driver also smiled awkwardly and slowly drove the car out of the parking lot.

Akan looked around and found that the bus was new, as if it had never been used before, and he felt a little strange. He didn't hear a few idle drivers in the parking lot smoking while asking each other in confusion: "Why have you never seen this car?"

"Maybe it's from some tour group..."

"Travel group? No way, the tour group is only one? Strange..."

Aken took out some food from his pocket and chewed it up. He hadn't eaten for 7 days and forced himself to meditate and breathe, which really made him hungry and tired. The abominable senior brother even took his pocket and came to supervise whether he was lazy to sleep, which made him very troubled! He could finally have a big meal...
