In our impression, gods will not die. However, most impressions are not necessarily correct.
Gods will actually die.
Sun Wukong learned the method of immortality in Bodhi Patriarch . Three years later, the master ascended the throne and preached the Dharma to the public, and suddenly asked: Where is Wukong? In this section of
, Bodhi Patriarch told Wukong that you must be careful of the Three Zhas.
Sun Wukong thought that after practicing the method of immortality, he would live with the heavens and would not have any diseases.
After all, they are still young people and don’t understand the cruelty of this world. Master Bodhi told: Five hundred years later, if thunder disasters come from heaven to attack you, you must see your nature and understand your mind and avoid it in advance. If you can escape the longevity and the sky, you can escape the death.
Another five hundred years later, a fire from the sky will burn you. This fire is not heavenly fire, nor ordinary fire, it is called Yin fire. It burns from under the Yongquan point and penetrates through the Niyuan Palace. The five internal organs turn into ashes and all limbs rot. It takes thousands of years of asceticism and all become illusory.
Another five hundred years, another storm blows you. This wind is not the wind in the southeast, northwest, nor the wind in the north, nor the wind in the north, nor the wind in the flowers, willows, pine and bamboo, called the wind in the pine (bi, four tones). Blow into the six internal organs from the fontanelle, pass through the dantian, penetrate the nine orifices, and the bones and flesh will fade away, and the body will be relieved. So you have to avoid it.
Sun Wukong was so scared that it can be seen that gods have disasters every five hundred years, and if they cannot escape, they will die.
can be clearly defined that the basic life expectancy standard of a god is five hundred years.
Of course, gods like Sanqing are already a kind of consciousness existence, without death or life.
In addition to these three disasters, the gods may also be poisoned to death.
The monster in Pansi Cave worshiped a brother and had a poison in his hand, which could be considered a treasure. If you eat it with a mortal, you will die if you only need one cent. If you eat with the gods, you will only need three cents to be eliminated. Originally, the four masters and disciples who wanted to poison the scriptures to death: these monks were afraid that they would need three cents of their practice.
Lishan’s old mother changed into an old woman and told Sun Wukong that the bone marrow was rotten in three days. It can be seen that this poison is powerful and even the gods cannot escape.
This centipede spirit was finally taken away by Vilanpo, but he was not beaten to death and went to help her guard the portal. This poison may be one of the reasons why the centipede spirit does not die.
Gods will also be beaten and killed. In Greek mythology, Zeus killed his fatherless god Cronos , and his father also killed his own father - the first god of the sky Uranos .
The gods fought against each other and were beaten to death. Or beheaded. There is a demon-slaying platform in the Heavenly Court, which is the demon-slaying immortals.
The reason why Sun Wukong was not beaten to death was that he ate peaches, drank imperial wine, and stole the immortal pill.
At this time, Taishang Laojun has another way: put it in the Bagua furnace, exercise it with the fire of literature and martial arts, and after refining the alchemy, he will be ashes.
means that even if you learn the method of immortality and avoid the three disasters, you will not die. It will be easy for the little immortals at the bottom to die. If they are not beaten to death, they can only learn their skills. This may be one of the reasons why Sun Wukong wants to achieve the right result. The magic power of the right result will be improved level by level, reducing the probability of being beaten to death by other immortals.
How do gods extend their lifespan?
Eat peaches.
There are 3,600 peach trees. There are 1,200 plants in front, with small flowers and small fruits. They are ripe every three thousand years. After eating, people become immortals and become physically healthy and light. There are 1,200 plants in the middle, with sweet and sweet flowers, and they are ripe every six thousand years. After eating the clouds, people will ascend to immortality. The next one thousand two hundred plants are purple-patterned and ripe, and they are ripe every nine thousand years. After eating, people live with the heaven and earth, and the sun and the moon are the same.
The resources of the peach tree are in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West. The Jade Emperor asked Sun Wukong to take care of the Peach Garden, which was very good to him. The gods who are invited to the peaches are of level, and most gods cannot prolong their life by eating the peaches.
ginseng fruit . Cultivate.
The fruit of life blooms every three thousand years, bears every three thousand years, and matures every three thousand years. It takes ten thousand years to eat it, but it seems that only thirty fruits will be produced in this ten thousand years. Just smell it, you will live 360 years old; eat one, you will live forty-seven thousand years.
This ginseng fruit should not be underestimated. The three stars of Fu Lu Shou told Sun Wukong: Our Tao is not as good as him (referring to Zhenyuan Daxian ). It is easy for him to get it, so he can live with Tian Sheng.We also need to cultivate essence, refine qi, preserve spirit, harmonize dragons and tigers, and fill Li from Kan, and do not know how much time we spend.
This resource is in the hands of Zhenyuan Daxian. Sun Wukong ate ginseng fruit and became sworn brothers with Zhenyuan Daxian, which was upgraded again.
If you can’t eat peaches and ginseng fruits, it is what the three stars of Fu Lu and Shou say - nourishing essence, refining qi, and preserving spirits. It can be seen that gods and immortals want to prosper their lives.
Later Guanyin saved ginseng fruit tree , each of Fulu and Shou three stars ate one, Tang Monk ate one, Wukong, Bajie , and Sha Monk ate one (the three of them stole one before, and they made a lot of money), Zhenyuanzi ate one, and Guanyin ate one. The other immortals under Zhen Yuanzi gathered together and ate one.
eat the elixir.
Taishang Laojun 's immortal pill. The Great Sage knew that the golden elixir refined in Laojun's gourd was the most treasure of the immortal family. Unfortunately, the original work did not explain how long it could last. However, the effect is certain.
function is that Sun Wukong ate five pots of raw and mature elixirs, used samadhi fire to become a body of gold and steel, and could not be hurt in a hurry.
Immortal Pill should be a treasure that can avoid the three disasters mentioned by Bodhi Patriarch.
Summary of three ways to extend the lifespan of gods:
The first type is the original Fu Lu Shou Sanxing’s words to nourish essence, refine qi, preserve spirit, and harmonize dragons and tigers.
The second type is to learn from the Jade Emperor. After 1,750 kalpas, each kalpa of 129,600 years, let's wait slowly. We said last time, we have to last for 200 million years, hehe.
The third type is to eat peaches, ginseng fruits, and Laojun Immortal Pills.
Now we can understand that peaches, life fruits, and immortal elixirs are all resources. The gods who hold these resources in their hands are the highest level gods, and the top gods are all at the top of the gods.
can be invited to eat peaches and ginseng fruits, which are considered high-level among the gods.
The little fairies at the bottom of
can only pray for luck, such as eating Tang Monk’s meat, but can Tang Monk’s meat really be eaten?
Let’s talk about this next Saturday.
