how to cultivate innate natural skills?

As I said before, the innate natural skill cultivates the weather first, and the method is natural. This clearly points out the cultivation method of innate natural work.

why do you say that? First, because the universe has evolved into what it is now, it is due to the needs of human life. In the final analysis, the essence of human life is the result of the manifestation of life information (that is, weather) that gives people life and has the original energy of the universe on the special material carrier of human body. Therefore, people and the universe are of the same origin, both of which are derived from the weather before, and they are all some forms of expression of the weather before.

Second, as a small universe, human beings can't live without the Qi of heaven and earth (Yin and Yang). Therefore, man and nature are a whole and an inseparable part of the natural universe. Therefore, man and the universe are inherently interlinked, and man's mind is the place of such interconnectedness. That is to say, the human mind has the original energy inherent in the universe and the ability to communicate with the universe. It is inextricably linked with everything in the universe-it can explore the existence of everything and contain all the information of the universe. Therefore, we say that the human mind is the "mirror" of the universe. I'm afraid that's why people are the "spirit of all things".

Third, nature is the inherent law of everything in the universe (including people). Nature is free and free. Nature is the truest and most beautiful. The most original and simple thing is the one that is closest to nature and most in line with people's aesthetic views. Therefore, how to understand the true meaning of the word "nature", how to truly "conform" to nature, and then "learn from nature" will naturally become the core issue of cultivating innate natural merits.

The so-called "following nature" means that the exerciser is in a certain state, accepting and understanding the information and laws of the universe (including the personal small universe); "Legalizing nature" means that practitioners follow the laws of the universe to solve their own problems on the basis of conforming to nature. The relationship between "obeying nature" and "obeying nature" is: first, obeying nature, then obeying nature. "Shun" (nature) is for "law" (nature).

We call the specific state of the exerciser the functional state of the human body. How to maintain this functional state is very important for practitioners. These two key problems need to be solved: first, "quiet"; The second is "training the mind." Solving these two problems is equivalent to mastering the key to the "door" of innate natural work. Let's talk about these two aspects in detail.

First of all, innate natural work belongs to the category of static work. For beginners, we take pains to talk about the problem of "getting into silence" again and again. It can be said that whether you can achieve "quiet" is the key to the success or failure of practicing. Why do you emphasize "quiet" like this? This is because if you really do and do a good job of "quiet", it will be the beginning of nature. Going into silence is to follow nature, and following nature is to understand the law of the weather in the universe. In other words, silence is the means. In other words, going into silence is to put people in a certain state-functional state, which is a necessary condition for accepting and understanding the information of the universe.

as we all know, the basic requirements of general static kung fu are: looseness, quietness and naturalness. The innate natural work embodies this point even more. It doesn't pay attention to appearance, and it doesn't pay attention to intention. Everything is based on "letting nature take its course". So, for beginners, how can we achieve "quiet"? It's never very specific, just a rough outline. Because you can't be specific, being too detailed and specific will tie the hands and feet of the practitioners-it is equal to not saying anything, so you can only draw an outline with a pencil like drawing. As for the specific details inside, it is up to each painter to describe it himself.

let's talk about "song" first. Pine has three meanings, one is to relax the brain; The second is physical relaxation; The third is to relax the five internal organs. The first two relaxations are relatively easy to do, while the relaxation of the five internal organs is a relatively high level. So the brain is relaxed, which means the brain is quiet. Because the "brain" mentioned in modern science is similar to the "heart" mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine in some aspects, mental quietness is also mental quietness. On this issue, innate nature does not advocate "intentional defense" (that is, one thought replaces all thoughts), but adopts a natural method of getting rid of distractions. Why? We believe that there is a problem of individual differences and dependence. For example, "intentional defense" is like learning to walk with crutches-once you learn to walk, you can't throw away your crutches. The result is that after learning to walk, you have to learn to throw a crutch. However, we don't rely on crutches when we learn to walk at the beginning, that is to say, let the practitioners gradually explore the best way to get quiet through practicing again and again. The result of doing this may seem to be slower than the former, but from the point of view of the training effect, it is more solid and direct than the former, which is more in line with the actual situation of each practitioner.

The so-called body relaxation refers to the posture of doing work, and the innate natural work does not emphasize appearance, because there is no specific requirement for the posture of doing work. Sit, stand or lie down. In a word, comfort is the measure.

This is because "loose body" serves for "quietness of mind", so as long as the posture of doing work is conducive to quietness, it can be done. Therefore, everyone can choose the best working posture that suits them best according to their actual situation.

as for the relaxation of the five internal organs, it can only be achieved gradually on the basis of the first two relaxation. When the five internal organs are relaxed, self-adjustment has entered a new stage. As we know, innate natural work is to adjust the qi of the five internal organs of the human body by mobilizing the self-regulating ability of the human body, so as to achieve the cultivation purpose of "treating diseases and strengthening the body without diseases". It can be seen that the relaxation of the five zang-organs is closely related to the practice of treating diseases. Therefore, we will discuss in detail in the following article (how to treat diseases by practicing innate natural skills).

In addition, there is a transitional stage between following nature and legal nature. This stage is the practice of mind (referred to as practice). In fact, the quiet process of practicing mentioned earlier already includes practice. Why do you say that? Because the natural meditation method we adopt itself determines that practitioners must practice steadily and step by step in the process of practicing, and avoid pursuing and being impatient, otherwise it will backfire-haste makes waste, so we can judge the level of practicing from the degree to which an practitioner practices. Therefore, we often say that "practicing is practicing".

Another common saying is "Practicing is practicing". As we said before, the human mind is the place where people communicate with the universe and the "mirror" of the universe. Therefore, in the final analysis, training the mind is to improve people's ability to bear the influence of "social-psychological-physiological" unbalanced factors, and to eliminate the "pollution" of acquired consciousness on people's mind, so as to restore people's original nature, keep their hearts stable and calm, and adapt to the changes in the natural universe. In other words, only by keeping the human mind-this "mirror" crystal clear and transparent can we correctly reflect the true face of the universe. Therefore, innate natural kung fu attaches great importance to "training the mind" and puts training in a very important position, emphasizing that "training is training, and training is training" and "training a calm mind".

so how can we keep the mind stable? This raises the question of "24-hour training". The so-called "24-hour training" does not mean that people are practicing meditation 24 hours a day, which is impossible and unnatural, but that they should always pay attention to honing their mind in life. That is, always pay attention to keep practicing: be humble, courteous and kind to others; Do things naturally, in exchange for the stability and stability of your own mind. In this way, we unconsciously expanded the scope of practicing: the meaning of practicing not only refers to calming down and doing exercises several times a day, but also includes the meaning of all the contents of the daily life of practitioners.

Therefore, we say that entering quietness is the key to entering Qigong state; Training the mind is the key to maintain this qigong state.

The highest state of cultivating innate natural skills is to achieve the unity of heaven, earth and man: that is, to understand the nature of the universe, understand its laws, follow it, use it, and make it better serve mankind. The key to this realm lies in the human mind, and meditation and mental training are the only way (shortcut) to this high realm.
