Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

Enlightenment?

Is there really any way to get it right?

When people hear that something has been enlightened, they think that they don’t have to do anything and suddenly they have become smart.

is it possible?

If this is true, you don’t have to do anything every day, just wait for one day to get it, and then you can achieve something without spending much effort.

How can such a good thing be so cheap in this world?

Did I really get it at that time?

not at all!

Lin Changqing knew very well that the reason his grades gradually improved was because he paid more attention to thinking and summarizing.

"I'm afraid you're disappointed. Enlightenment is just a trick!"

"What? Lying is unnecessary, right?"

Fang Yongji was the first one who didn't believe it. "If it's a lie, then what's going on with those people who suddenly became smart?"

"Yes! Sometimes the boss always scolds me for not being smart. If he is a liar, how can he say that he is smart?"

The same was true for Zhao Hu. He felt that there must be someone who had become enlightened, otherwise, there was no way to explain those people who changed so quickly.

Lin Changqing shook his head and looked at Li Qingyue, Song Jiajia, and Gao Kejie who were silent:

"Do you think so too?"

"Yeah, I think so too. I feel that Kaiqiao is not lying, but I also feel that Comrade Changqing, you haven't lied to us either!"

Song Jiajia was conflicted, not knowing which statement to believe. She hoped it was true, but she also hoped that Lin Changqing was not lying.

"I have some doubts, but there has been a saying about enlightenment since ancient times, so I think it should be true. Comrade Changqing, you have experienced it yourself, but you say it is a lie. This makes it difficult for me to make a judgment. I can only believe it with doubt."

Li Qingyue didn't say anything just now because she wanted to wait for Lin Changqing's explanation.

Lin Changqing taught the five of them a lot of useful knowledge and methods, and Li Qingyue also felt that Lin Changqing would not lie.

"Me? I don't know how to judge." Gao Kejie didn't know what to say. He couldn't say, Comrade Changqing, do you want to hide the method of enlightenment and don't want to tell us?

Lin Changqing saw the expressions of the crowd and knew what they were thinking, so he said calmly:

"You may think that I don't want to tell you the method, but I think that enlightenment is fake, but I don't know the method."

"Learning anything requires a method. The reason why I didn't do well in the past was that I didn't master the method."

"No one can become smart overnight. That kind of thing is almost impossible. But many people just want to find shortcuts."

"You have also read The Theory of Practice. Do you think that anyone can skip the stage of sensory cognition and directly reach the stage of rational cognition?"

The five people shook their heads. The two stages of acquaintance were something they had to go through and were indispensable and could not be skipped.

"In that case, according to your understanding, if enlightenment occurs, then it means that one's understanding is profound and has reached the stage of rational understanding. Do you think someone can suddenly become enlightened?"

The five people shook their heads again.

"But how do you explain those people who suddenly change?"

Fang Yongji asked his doubts.

"Yes! Since there is such a saying, there should be such an example! You can't make something out of nothing, right?"

Song Jiajia also had the same question.

Lin Changqing listened and laughed.

"I know this. As an eyewitness, I can tell you the answer."

The five of them listened attentively.

"First of all, let me tell you about my school days. At that time, I was completely confused and couldn't understand what the teacher said."

"So, when I was in primary school, my grades were not good and the teacher punished me, but I still couldn't change. One time, I heard the teacher tell my father that I was too difficult to teach."

"Without a talent for studying, I will never achieve anything in the future. However, I just won't accept it and I have to prove it to the teacher."

"Since then, I started to study hard, but my foundation was too weak, so my grades didn't improve much."

"I asked my classmates who had good grades, but they didn't tell me at all and laughed at me."

"I became even more unconvinced, and then I taught myself. Because my foundation was poor, I started from scratch."

"Soon, I ran into a problem. There was so much to learn, and I couldn't remember a lot of it. I thought, this is not going to work."

"If we follow the conventional methods of memorizing, doing exercises, and listening to lectures, there is no way to improve our grades."

"So I wanted to find another way. I wondered if there were any other methods. I thought about it for more than a month, but I couldn't think of any useful method."

"I almost gave up, but one time when I was doing homework, I suddenly realized that some of the questions were similar. The knowledge learned in the previous grade is also useful in the next grade."

"This shows that knowledge is connected, so I immediately found some similar questions to do and compared the answers. I found that the answers were basically similar."

“At that moment, I wondered if there were many questions like this.”

"In order to verify my idea, I found a lot of questions and compared them, and found that it was just as I expected. So I divided the questions into several categories and practiced them one by one."

"Not only that, I also summarized the solutions for each type of question, and then studied specifically. In less than a year, my grades improved by leaps and bounds, and I got first place in the exam!"

"So, this experience of mine tells me that I was not born with a sudden intelligence, but I improved my grades through planning and methods. It also denies the teacher's statement that I have no talent for studying!"

"At that time, many people were very surprised. How could I, a student at the bottom of the class, get the first place in the exam? Many people didn't believe it. However, the teacher knew and said that I had finally gotten it!"

"Then, this statement spread to many people, and gradually, everyone believed it."

"But I know that this is not true. Smart people can have it, but I don't think it's possible for someone to suddenly become enlightened."

"However, we cannot rule out the possibility. It's just that we shouldn't be obsessed with enlightenment. Nothing can be obtained without effort."

Lin Changqing knew in his heart that he had many things that he obtained without any effort, but if the five people were ordinary people and only thought about soaring to the sky by becoming enlightened, it would only harm them.

What he teaches now is to enable ordinary people to learn how to learn and change their own destiny through learning.

After hearing Lin Changqing's words, Fang Yongji's fantasy was instantly shattered!

He was a little bit unconvinced that this was how the enlightenment was conveyed.

Sure enough, the rumors were not credible.

Yes, there are very few people who suddenly become smart. With so many people in the country, how could it be his turn?

Such unrealistic fantasies are indeed unacceptable.
