My Side Job is a Trader

Zhang Xin said: "It's normal to have a magnetic field in our body. After all, the body is also composed of matter. Since it is matter, there are microscopic particles such as electrons, so it is not surprising that there is a magnetic field."

Wei Zhiren clapped his legs and said, "That's right, we thought the same way at the time, so we all left the experiment and came to a place a few kilometers away. Through monitoring and observation, the results were still the same. When we didn't observe, There are several patterns on the negative film, as long as we observe, there is only one definite pattern on the negative film, which shows that there are unknown existences in our human body that interfere with the normal movement of electrons or photons."

"Then why do you think it's consciousness interference?"

"Because the behavior we observe is produced by consciousness, and what the eyes see is already the result of the feedback from consciousness."

Zhang Xin felt a little confusing, so he said, "Since you think that consciousness or soul is a kind of magnetic field, how can you verify it?"

"Yes, how to verify it? After all, neurons in the human brain also produce magnetic fields, so how to distinguish the magnetic field of neurons from the magnetic field of consciousness? Next, we need to rely on biological research."

Zhang Xin was a little confused, and said, "Aren't you doing research in physics? Why are you talking about biology?"

Wei Zhiren said proudly: "Don't forget that I am a double Ph.D. in physics and biology, and now I want to verify the existence of another thing."

"what?"

"Does there really exist meridians in the human body?"

Zhang Xin had a black question mark on his face. After all, the span was a bit big. He was still discussing the issue of consciousness just now. Suddenly, Wei Zhiren discussed with him the issue of the existence of meridians.

However, Zhang Xin still followed Wei Zhiren's topic, and said uncertainly: "The meridian may exist. After all, traditional medicine often cures many diseases through acupuncture and massage. If the meridian does not exist, then isn't the foundation of traditional medicine?" no longer exists?"

Wei Zhiren said: "But at present, there is no trace of the meridians in the human body in the anatomy of Western medicine."

Zhang Xin is silent, because this is also a fact. To say whether a thing really exists, at least one must be able to observe it in order to convince everyone, otherwise it will appear a little weak.

"Then do you think meridians exist?"

"It must exist! It's just that the current level of human technology is limited, so it's too late to verify it."

Zhang Xin also prefers existence, because it is a fact that traditional medicine can cure diseases.

Wei Zhiren said: "Once it is confirmed that the meridians are real, it will be terrifying. According to our common sense, science and technology are not as old as today, but the ancients have discovered the existence of meridians a long time ago. Is this true? It shows that the ancients were either very technologically advanced, or those who left behind theories such as meridians were true gods."

Zhang Xin hadn't thought of this before, but when Wei Zhiren reminded him, he realized that there was indeed a paradox here. From the records of ancient books, there was indeed no such advanced science and technology in ancient times. With the current technology, it is still impossible to determine the meridians. Why the ancients were able to determine the meridian, and it can also be applied to medicine.

Leaving aside the hypothesis of prehistoric civilization and aliens, there is another saying that is often recorded in scriptures, that is inner vision.

Zhang Xin spoke out the conjecture in his heart.

"Internal vision? Is it possible that such a method really exists?"

Wei Zhiren said to himself,

"Buddhism and Taoism have a meditation method called the method of meditation. Through the method of meditation, the effect of meditation can be achieved, and when you meditate, you can feel your consciousness wandering around the body. I have tried it before, and I feel that I can't say it. Come on, but it does seem to see all parts of my body, including my back, but as long as there are distracting thoughts, my eyes will immediately go black, as if my consciousness has returned to my mind."

Zhang Xin looked at Wei Zhiren and said, "Samatha and Vipassana? Can you teach me?"

Wei Zhiren showed a strange look on his face, and said, "Of course it's no problem, and you should know this method."

Now Zhang Xin was a little confused, pointed at himself, and said, "I know too?"

"That's right, or let's put it this way, anyone who has entered a temple to burn incense and worship Buddha should know it."

Zhang Xin became interested, because he had indeed entered a temple, but he had never seen the so-called "Samatha-Vipassana Method".

As if seeing Zhang Xin's question, Wei Zhiren stopped entertaining him and said, "Have you ever observed the Buddha statues? The eyes of the Buddha statues in all temples are half-opened and half-closed. Everyone thinks that the reason why the Buddha statues are like this is because Because the Buddha is merciful and can't see the suffering in the world, so he can only half-close his eyes. However, after I checked various ancient books, I found that the posture of samatha-vipassana is almost the same as that of the Buddha statue. You only need to sit up straight and focus your attention. Concentrate on the tip of the nose, get rid of distracting thoughts, and you can enter a state of meditation, which is the method of samatha-vipassana.”

Zhang Xin was shocked, and said in surprise: "Doesn't that mean that everyone can meditate and practice?"

"Theoretically, this is the case, but even if someone realizes the existence of Samatha-Vipassana and learns to do it, it may not be effective, because the first step of Samatha-Vipassana excludes most people, that is, the need to subdue the distracted mind, In other words, we need to eliminate all distractions."

Zhang Xin then said: "Modern people have too many distracting thoughts because of too many external temptations, and they cannot meditate and practice through the method of tranquility and insight at all."

Wei Zhiren said: "This is the principle, so the current era seems to be the 'Dharma-ending era' described in the scriptures, and it refers to the current era when no one can practice."

"But there are always accidents. After all, with so many people, there are always some simple-minded people who happen to know the method of meditation and meditation, and just happen to be able to enter the state of meditation."

Wei Zhiren said, "That's right, such people do exist."

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because that's who I am, I've been practicing Samatha and Vipassana for a while, and because of that, I started to doubt what I had learned, and I felt like my faith was falling apart."

"You can also practice?"

Wei Zhiren said suspiciously: "Yeah? Could it be that Mr. Zhang can also practice?"

Only then did Zhang Xin realize that he had slipped his tongue by not checking for a while.

I had no choice but to say: "I don't actually practice meditation through the method of meditation, but I can indeed enter a special state, and every time I come out of that state, I will be very comfortable and happy."

"Me too. Every time I observe my body, I feel much more refreshed."

The two looked at each other, as if they had found a confidant.

Then the two chatted about some practice matters. Unknowingly, the two began to communicate in the morning and talked until the sun went down. They only ate some takeaways in the middle. Seeing the sky getting darker and darker, Zhang Xin felt that the meaning was still unfinished , but glanced at his watch and felt that he should bid farewell.

Before leaving, Zhang Xin invited him to be the head of his science laboratory. Wei Zhiren happened to be at home, so he happily accepted the invitation.

Zhang Xin handed him a business card of his own, and told him that he could call if he needed anything.
