Opening a Small Path for Everyone: Stepping Outside the Three Realms, Beyond the Five Elements

Xuefeng

A rope can saw through wood, water droplets can wear away stone, melons drop when they are ripe, and water carves its own path. Yet, some companions are eager to uncover the secrets or methods for advancing to higher LIFE spaces. Reluctantly, I will reveal a small secret path to see if you can grasp it.

The Chinese nation's unique LIFE structure was not directly created by the angels of the Greatest Creator but was the result of the "divine dragon" transforming itself into a human by imitating other beings. As a result, its genes carry a wealth of information that transcends time and space. Thus, many figures among our ancestors exhibited wisdom that is beyond comprehension. However, due to our people's tendencies toward suspicion, inconsistency, and lack of devotion, the wisdom of these extraordinary individuals often went unshared, and profound methods of cultivation were repeatedly discovered only to be lost again—a regrettable reality.

We cannot estimate how many extraordinary individuals the Chinese nation has produced or how many profound methods have been lost. Some who gained these methods remained silent and became hermits. Others took on disciples, but due to their disciples' impatience and lack of sincerity, the masters ultimately withheld the true teachings.

For instance, the celestial divination method of King Wen of Zhou, the yin-yang deduction methods of Guiguzi, the magical transformation methods of Huzi, Jiang Ziya's nonmaterial utilization methods, Zhang Liang's Qimen Dunjia techniques, and Zhuge Liang's divine predictive calculations were all lost. Even the secrets concealed in works like Tui Bei Tu and Ma Qian Ke have disappeared over time.

High-ranking monks in the Buddhist realm have grasped many mysteries, but they have only guided their disciples in cultivation without transmitting the true core teachings. In the Zen tradition, masters emphasize heart-to-heart transmission and often refrain from recording teachings in words, leading to the loss of much profound wisdom.

During my exploration of the negative universe, I uncovered some mysteries. However, I dare not pass on these methods directly, not out of selfishness or stinginess, but because we lack the moral qualities required to receive and use them appropriately. The purpose of creating Lifechanyuan was to inspire others to perceive these methods through my writings. Only by exhausting one’s own efforts and comprehending them independently can one truly grasp their profoundness and prevent misuse.

To ascend to higher LIFE spaces, one must understand many principles. Once these principles are thoroughly comprehended, the methods will naturally reveal themselves—this is known as "success follows naturally when the time is right." The more one hastens to find shortcuts, the further one drifts from the true methods. The more one clings to oneself, the more one loses oneself. I have explained this reasoning in my discussion of unconventional thinking.

Below, I will guide you through an example combined with a story. I trust that those who truly embrace Lifechanyuan will gain insight from it.

There is a story in the Liezi, Yellow Emperor Chapter:

A mystical sorcerer from Qi came to reside in Zheng, named Ji Xian. He could predict people’s life and death, existence and extinction, fortune and misfortune, and longevity with divine accuracy by years, months, tens of days, and days. The people of Zheng avoided him out of fear. Liezi was fascinated and reported this to Huzi, saying, “I once thought your teachings were the highest, but now I see there is someone even higher.”

Huzi replied, “We have discussed these matters in writing, but you have not grasped their practical reality. How could one understand Taoist skills? If there are only female animals and no males, how could they produce eggs? You insist on using your little tricks to deal with people in the world; you are bound to reveal your true face, so it’s easy for people to see through you and read your fortune. Try to invite him over and let him read my fortune.”

The next day, Liezi brought Ji Xian to meet Huzi. After Ji Xian left, he told Liezi, “Ah! Your teacher is about to die, he cannot live, not more than ten days. I observed that his appearance was peculiar, resembling wet ash.”

Liezi entered, crying so much that his clothes were wet, and reported this to Huzi. Huzi said, “I showed him the aspect of the earth. In a state of stillness and non-movement, he saw my life force as blocked. Invite him again!”

The next day, Ji Xian came with Liezi again. After Ji Xian left, he told Liezi, “Your teacher is fortunate to have met me; he is recovering. There is vitality in his whole body, and I see the blocked life force starting to stir.” Liezi informed Huzi.

Huzi said, “What I showed him was the junction of heaven and earth, where neither empty fame nor tangible benefits enter the heart, yet the life force has already started to stir at my heels. This is the awakening of the blocked life force. Therefore, he saw my life force improving. Invite him again!”

The next day, Ji Xian came with Liezi once more. After Ji Xian left, he told Liezi, “Your teacher was sitting there with a distracted mind. I could not read his fortune. Wait until his mind is settled, then I will read his fortune.”

Liezi informed Huzi. Huzi said, “I showed him the aspect of great emptiness with no discernible signs. Therefore, he saw my chaotic, balanced life force. The places where a whale circles, water accumulates, or flows all become deep abysses. Similarly, where water gushes, falls, breaches, or converges, deep abysses form. These are the nine kinds of abysses. Invite him again!”

The next day, Liezi brought Ji Xian again. Before Ji Xian could stand still, he fled in panic. c said, “Chase him!” Liezi chased after him but could not catch him and reported to Huzi, “He has disappeared; I could not catch him.”

Huzi said, “What I showed him did not leave my original appearance. I was without attachment, changing with him. He could not discern who I was. Thus, I followed him like grass, shifting like water, so he fled.”

The key takeaway is that Ji Xian, who possessed extraordinary divination skills, could accurately read the fortunes of ordinary people but was rendered powerless before Liezi’s master, Huzi. The profound shifts in Huzi’s spiritual state—from earth-like stillness to heaven-like vitality, from myriad manifestations to the negative universe—baffled Ji Xian, eventually forcing him to flee in shame.

This demonstrates the transformative power of those who have truly united with the Tao. At this stage, one can freely enter any desired LIFE space.

Is this merely a myth? Was this story invented by Liezi for amusement? Absolutely not.

Can we also acquire such spiritual abilities? Yes, we can.

Humans are capable of infinite transformations. While these changes may be imperceptible to ordinary people, those with deep spiritual cultivation can discern them.

For example, a physiologically normal person can watch erotic videos or read obscene materials and then observe changes in their pulse, blood pressure, muscle tension, and breath. It’s easy to detect differences compared to before watching.

Similarly, try watching horror movies alone at night. By the end, you might be so scared that you collapse to the ground, too afraid to step outside. If we had instruments to measure your state, your energy flow would likely be extremely weak, and your biological and thinking waves would almost disappear.

Now, you can think further on your own.

As for Liezi, he ultimately failed to receive his master’s true teachings. After Ji Xian fled, Liezi felt he had offended his master and was too ashamed to face him again. He returned home, where he spent three years in self-reflection, trying to transcend the world and return to simplicity. Peter, the apostle of Jesus, faced a similar problem. At first, he could walk on water, but due to fear of the storm, he began to sink because he lacked faith in his master.

Comrades, do you have faith? If you’re constantly focused on world events, national affairs, market changes, technological advances, status, power, fame, family issues, and never find a moment of peace, you may not even touch the edge of the Dao, let alone understand it. Struggling for a lifetime, in the end, will it not all be empty? What have you truly gained? Who remembers the heroes of five thousand years ago? Who will leave a legacy for eternity? Will you still be here tomorrow?

It’s time to focus on something real!

But material things are not the real things!
