Galantuo Bamboo Garden was as lush as its name suggested.
Except for the fact that the flowers had been replaced by bamboos, and that there was no stupa in the middle of the garden, the other decorations, bricks and tiles, paths, streams, and monks 'quarters, were all very similar to Sangha Rammo's monastery. Eos began to feel dizzy, but this time, he immediately recognized Chan Talaqida.
What's going on? He grabbed the fat monk's sleeve.
"This Tan Yue, what's the matter?』
You…you don't recognize me?』
"I'm sorry, I've never met you before. How could I recognize you? The monk was puzzled.
Eos shouted,"Stop pretending!" It was the old man you brought me to see. He asked me to observe my breathing! I can't remember what happened after that! I saw countless specks of light and chose one to fly in. I can't remember what happened after that. I only remember walking in a desolate place like a beast! He was hungry all day long, searching for strange fruits and insects that looked terrifying but could not be named to satisfy his hunger! I've spent a long time, probably hundreds of years! Finally…'
" I understand. Please follow me. Chantalaqida interrupted his shouts, smiling as he closed his eyes, indicating for him to follow.
It was already evening. Coincidentally, the sky was very clear today. There was not a single dark cloud. The vast starry sky and the magnificent Milky Way could be seen at a glance. They could be clearly distinguished with the naked eye. The two of them arrived before the Gahazhuna throne, and Chan Talaqita had Eos recount his experiences.
Gahejune pointed at the sky and asked," Look at the stars in the sky.』
Eos looked up and suddenly said in surprise,"" It's that one. I recognize it! I entered that spot of light! 'he said, pointing at a dim star in the Hyades cluster.' What's going on? Please tell me!』
" As you can see, there are as many stars as the sands of the Ganges River. Each star is a world, so there are as many worlds as the sands of the Ganges River in the universe. " Gahajune began to explain," Those worlds are very far away, and each of them has a country, civilization, and life like our world. They contain infinite knowledge and even all the truths of the universe. Brahma gave the right to visit these worlds to Vishnu, who, as the messenger who guarded this realm, established the Akashic Realm. Vishnu, who craved infinite knowledge and the truth of the universe, was immersed in Akashic all day long, observing the changes, development, and destruction of life on every star day and night, gradually becoming addicted. However, he soon realized that about one-third of the stars in the sky were pitch black and could not be read whenever he approached them. He found Shiva, who was eager for power and knowledge, and lent him his eyes. Shiva climbed Mount Girosa to help him check, but he still could not read one-third of the stars. Thus, they guessed that one-third of Akashic was a forbidden library that Brahma had not opened. Vaishnu wanted to read this third of the book very much. He believed that the method to enter the Forbidden Book Depository was hidden in the two-thirds of Akashic that had been opened and possessed almost infinite knowledge. Therefore, the guardian Vishnu used Rig Veda to make a covenant with the mortals of the worlds, lending his eyes to all beings who yearned for knowledge, and Shiva lent the power of yoga-yoga is a tool for people to establish a connection with the gods. When we use yoga, our consciousness will be projected onto the moon. The moon is the door to enter Akashic, and the stars are the coordinates. When we choose the coordinates of the star, our consciousness will pass through the door of time and space and enter other worlds. In the infinite years after Vishnu shared his authority with mortals, more and more readers 'spirits passed through the moon, which was why there were so many pits on the moon. The dimensional rift would be closed on the first day of each month. On that day, it would undergo rest and maintenance. On other days, it would gradually open. This was done to limit the mistakes caused by too many souls passing through at the same time, and to prevent damage caused by excessive use of the dimensional door. Vishnu believed that with countless people helping him search, he would soon find a way to enter the Forbidden Book Depository. Whenever the rainy season came and dark clouds covered the sky, we would use Vaishnu's remote vision to select the coordinates of the stars. If the sky was clear, we would use our naked eyes to directly select, just like tonight. Venerable Nahajuna patted the shoulder of the seated Eos Kafso and looked up at him." Now, choose another one.』
Eos used his naked eye to choose a star that wasn't very bright." I've chosen.』
" Okay, please close your eyes and use the secret yoga I taught you. Observe the changes in your current life. It can be a feeling or a breath. In your heart, visualize the position of the star. The old man instructed.
A moment later, Eos opened his eyes and panted heavily.
How long will it be this time? the old man asked.
'Two thousand years! This time, I've experienced two thousand years! " I came to a world without land. Everything was in the sky. Countless cities were suspended in the air, connected by pipes. The squirming crystal-like transparent mud ball ruled every city, and I was just a dirty cleaning ball in the pipes between the cities. I cleaned up the feces of the rulers every day. It was not a sense of smell, but something else. We used that feeling to identify the location of the feces. Those disgusting things, we cleaners actually used them as food, swallowing them crazily every day until about 2,000 years later, we exhausted our last strength and died! " Eos panted frantically and retched at the same time.
" Yes, but this time, you only consumed a moment here. " Most of the time, it's like this. Every time I come back, there will be a deviation in time. The deviation usually happens in an instant, maybe the next instant, or the previous instant, but most of the time, it's just like this. Occasionally, there will be a deviation of a few minutes. It's rare for there to be a deviation of a few days or even the space of the meditator, but it does exist, such as your last time.』
Eos still had not recovered from his shock. He raised his head and stared at the hundred-year-old man." Then why did the Sangha Ramma Abode and the name of the river change last time?! Even the flowers and plants here had turned into a bamboo forest, and the stupa had turned into a lecture platform!』
" Look, this time, what's the change? the old man said.
Eos looked into his eyes in shock." Your pupils…your pupils! When you told me the fairy tale just now, it wasn't blue! How could this be?』
" Every time we return, we actually return to a different world. " The old man said calmly," Just like the changes in time and space, each change will not be very big. Even if it is not a world, the general logic and context are not very different, so there is no need to be too alarmed. After saying this, he smiled and said,"In fact, each of us only lives in a world where we are alone. Because of this, each of us lives in a different world. However, sometimes, it's just that your world is too similar to mine, so you think we're in the same world...'
'Why is this happening! What was all this for?』
" If we go to those distant worlds by our own strength, if we take a boat from the port of Krimu on the Black Sea and go down the Milky Way, it will probably take thousands of times to reach them. Therefore, every time we enter Akashic to browse a world, we would use the power of Shiva and Vishnu to arrive instantly. He would project our consciousness directly into the body of a consciousness on those stars, so we would go through their lifetime. But when we return, it was like a precise operation, and it was inevitable that there would be deviation. As for why, I don't know either.
" Therefore, like every practitioner here, I am not omniscient. The ocean of knowledge is boundless. Every time I know a lot of things, I will discover more unknown things. Just like the last words your mother left you, asking you to come to Akashic and find a way to resurrect her, everyone who first came to the southern foot of the snowy mountains to seek knowledge had different goals. It could be for prophecy and gambling, or it could be for the extraordinary military books or supreme power. However, in the end, everyone here gradually changed from seeking a specific goal to pursuing knowledge itself.』
" He also became a slave who helped Vishnu find a way to enter the one-third of the Forbidden Book Depository! Wasn't it? " Do you know what the only feeling I had when I entered Akashic these two times was? Pain! Is this your pursuit?』
The old man smiled and looked at him kindly."" Then do you know how many worlds I experienced in the five minutes I meditated here before you came?』
How much?』
" A billion. the old man said calmly.
This short answer made the noisy people speechless.
'I've been reading these stars like this since I was a teenager. Young man, I have experienced countless hardships and changes in the world. Even the most recent change has left me in the South. I, who was teaching the students of the Saro Kingdom's temple, suddenly returned to the present 200 years ago. That was why I had the opportunity to be invited to the north by them and see you in this garden.』
Eos burst into tears. He humbly knelt down and saluted his teacher.
The old man stroked his head and said meaningfully,""Child, when you came here, you thought this was the end of your journey. He looked up at the starry sky around the moon." Actually, this is just the starting point of your journey.』
