Start the liver experience with push-ups

Afternoon sunlight filtered through the floor-length curtains, spilling into the room.

White marble pillars stood silently, supporting a semi-circular dome of immense span.

Countless points of light twinkled on the dome, like brilliant stars, the primary source of light within the room.

It was as if the entire universe had been copied here, shrinking the vast celestial dimensions onto its surface, making it extremely eye-catching.

This was a circular, enormous hall, tall and majestic, splendid and sacred.

More than fifty people gathered here, each feeling extraordinarily small.

This scene caused many team members to feel a sense of awe, exclaiming in admiration.

They never imagined that such a sacred and magnificent building was hidden within the seemingly dilapidated training camp base.

Seemingly influenced by this special environment, a sense of inexplicable reverence also sprouted in Fang Cheng's heart.

While cautiously observing his surroundings, he suddenly heard a series of unfamiliar footsteps.

Then, with a "creak," the door was slowly pushed open.

A middle-aged man wearing glasses and with a thin appearance then entered the Great Meditation Hall.

He was also wearing plain white meditation robes, and he lightly coughed as he looked at the crowd.

The team members, who had been whispering to each other, immediately closed their mouths, and the entire place fell silent.

The middle-aged man walked to a circle of futons placed in the center of the hall, chose a spot, and sat down cross-legged.

Then, a smile appeared on his face, and he nodded slightly to the crowd:

"Everyone, please don't be restrained. You can call me Instructor Chen. Over the next few days, I will lead you into the wonderful world of meditation and teach you how to control yourselves and eliminate the anxiety and sorrow that trouble you..."

His smile was as warm and gentle as the spring breeze, and his tone was unhurried and calm.

After a brief introduction, he instructed the crowd:

"Now, you can find a place to sit at random. There is no order of seating here, nor is there any distinction between seniority. Everyone is family, like brothers and sisters."

Hearing this, more than fifty team members immediately moved their futons, all sitting around the instructor.

Each person seemed to hope to be as close as possible to this kind and amiable instructor.

Seeing that everyone was seated, Instructor Chen gently clapped his hands.

"Before we officially begin learning meditation, can I first understand your respective backgrounds? Please tell me why you want to learn meditation?"

As he spoke, he pointed to a female team member closest to him.

"This young lady, would you like to speak first?"

Hearing this, the female team member was stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a while, she stammered:

"My name is Deng Wenwen, I am 26 years old, and I work in a trading company in Dongdu. The reason I am learning meditation is to forget a relationship."

"Because... my boyfriend, unfortunately, died in the Xishan fire more than a month ago. Although he always made me angry before... but... but, I really can't forget him..."

As she spoke, her emotions became somewhat out of control, and she choked up several times, unable to restrain herself.

Seeing this, Instructor Chen showed a look of pity and sighed deeply:

"What is the joy of life, what is the sorrow of death? Each of us comes into this world alone, but also happily."

"Because even if we leave this world today, tomorrow there will still be many relatives and friends who miss us, and this missing actually represents that you once came to this world and lived here truly and genuinely."

After saying these words, he then looked at Deng Wenwen, the light behind his glasses shining slightly.

"Miss Deng, the purpose of practicing meditation is not to forget and see through, but to let go, be calm, and be enlightened."

"Even if you reach the highest level of meditation in the future, Nirvana, this thought of your boyfriend will still be retained in the universal consciousness, forever unchanged, and cannot be erased, but it has already transformed from negative to positive, guiding you to face emotional problems positively and optimistically."

"Because life is a cycle of reincarnation, perhaps in the next reincarnation, you will meet again, which is also unknown..."

"Is this... really true?"

Hearing this, Deng Wenwen couldn't help but stare at him blankly.

Instructor Chen smiled and nodded.

Perhaps this statement comforted her emotions, and her whole person instantly became much calmer.

With the first person starting, other team members then spoke in turn about their own worries and troubles.

Some were because of high work pressure, feeling irritable, and wanting to escape reality.

Some also encountered emotional problems, feeling that life was full of confusion.

Others were heavily in debt, wanting to commit suicide but afraid of death, hoping to find a truly liberating way.

Various reasons abounded, becoming a complaint meeting.

When it was Fang Cheng's turn, he was closing his eyes slightly, resting his mind.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were cast over, he frowned slightly, showing the same distressed look.

"My name is Ma Donghao, I had an older brother who went astray when he was young, mixed in the underworld, and was hacked to death in front of me."

"After that, scenes of tragic killings often appear in my dreams, which have been bothering me, making me feel mentally exhausted..."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, seemingly wiping away moist corners of his eyes.

Instructor Chen looked at him with kind eyes and softly comforted him.

Pan Wendi looked at Fang Cheng with a slightly surprised expression, as if saying, 'So, you also have such sad past events.'

Then, when it was his turn to speak, he replied carelessly:

"I just simply want to learn meditation, so that after I go back, I can guide the members in fitness and become their spiritual mentor, improving the service level and earning twice as much money from one job."

Hearing this, other team members couldn't help but let out a slight chuckle.

After everyone had spoken out their long-suppressed problems, the atmosphere in the classroom seemed to become much more relaxed.

Instructor Chen then clapped his hands and said with a gentle expression:

"I deeply sympathize with everyone's experiences, but I can responsibly tell you that as long as it involves mental problems or ailments, they can be successfully resolved through the practice of meditation."

"Because we ourselves are the best doctors. All the medicines in the world are not as good as one's own awakening. Letting go of external things can make you a brand new you..."

After a word of comfort, Instructor Chen said seriously:

"In today's class, I will teach you the basic knowledge of meditation and how to successfully reach the first level, 'Entering Silence'."

"First of all, you must clarify the concept that meditation is a comprehensive training that regulates the state of body and mind from shallow to deep through self-awareness. It includes multiple practice steps and techniques..."

The lecture officially began, and everyone listened attentively.

Fang Cheng also straightened his back and stared intently at the instructor.

However, these knowledge points were still similar to the content played on the meditation teaching disc.

Just as Fang Cheng felt slightly disappointed in his heart.

Instructor Chen suddenly threw out a sentence that immediately cheered him up:

"Next, before you try to enter silence for the first time, I must explain a very important issue in advance."

"The goal of the 'Entering Silence' stage is to make our five senses more acute and refined, able to receive information that is usually ignored by the brain."

"But this also brings a problem, which is that after the perception is magnified, there will be contradictory situations that go against each other. The information you receive becomes complex, and people will become more anxious, making it difficult to enter silence."

"Even, there have been talented students who have developed mental disorders because of this."

"So, how should we solve this problem?"

"Our True Thought Society summarizes the specific practice methods into three points: practice the five senses, transcend the five senses, and return to awareness!"
