Preface
When was the last time you looked up at the starry sky?
Do you remember the first time you saw the vast universe, able to catch sight of the Milky Way and shooting stars, and the awe and immersion you felt in that moment?
At that moment, did you feel that the time and space of human existence were insignificant compared to the scale of the universe, too minuscule?
Did you faintly sense that your relentless pursuit of things you could neither grasp nor let go of seemed ludicrous and meaningless?
That moment is fleeting; life makes you lower your gaze, and you no longer look up to the stars, no longer comprehend the cosmos, and no longer explore yourself.
You are wrapped up in this small world, emotional fluctuations are beyond your control, and you follow your instincts and desires to chase one goal and hope after another, never stopping.
If you feel something is off and unclear,
If you’re tired but can’t stop,
If you’re in pain seeking a way out,
If you’re lost in your triumphs and look down on everything,
If you’re curious about the purpose of life,
Then you already have the motivation and opportunity to unravel the great mysteries of life; perhaps the content here can help you clarify your thoughts.
Recall
The content I want to share was known before you arrived on Earth; not just you, but every "you" on Earth knows it. It’s just that you and every version of you have forgotten.
As I gradually recalled some of this content, I hurried to write it down; what I now remember is only a small part of the vastness, but it is enough to answer many of my questions.
In this process, the true Self gradually becomes apparent, and many of my confusions have dissolved. For me, and for you; for you, and for me; I hope you can also step out of the fog and see the entirety of life.
Since memories are not continuous, I will write down whatever comes to mind, which may appear somewhat disjointed. However, I hope that any content in this guide can help you remember, because, like me, you are already very familiar with it.
I also hope that when you read it, you can empty your mind, without judgment or prejudice. Only in this way can these contents truly resonate with your inner Self.
Expression
What I remember is quite complex in my heart, and translating it into words always results in substantial loss, potential imprecision, and a hindrance to understanding.
I spent some time thinking about how to express it better and found that dividing it into two parts makes it easier.
One part focuses on the life experiences of each person in the present:
I found an interesting yet accurate way to express this: metaphorically comparing our life experiences on Earth to a game—"The Earth Game."
I will narrate it in the form of a game guide and will strive to maintain its purity as a game guide;
Referring to this experience as a game allows you not to take your current life too seriously. If you take it too seriously, you will desperately try to cling to everything you have now, fearing the loss of it and continually longing for what you do not yet possess, and this obsession will severely obstruct your ability to see the illusory nature of this experience.
But remember, what the guide explains is real, but this is not really a game. There is no other "you" outside of this world controlling your character. The you experiencing everything is the protagonist. Your experience exists in this experience itself, complete and coherent, not partial or dual.
The other part emphasizes telling the essence of the origin of the universe:
This will allow you to understand the entirety of the universe from a higher perspective, thus deepening your comprehension of the first part (casting aside the metaphor of the game). This section will not be included in the guide but will be presented separately in "In-Depth Understanding".
Tip
If the guide discusses strategies for a computer game, then this part is about explaining computer principles.
These two parts can be said to be entirely independent and can be read separately. If reading it still feels jarring, you may think of it as a science fiction novel.
Game Guide
We are all players in "The Earth Game," a grand game currently unfolding on Earth, though we are unaware of it. The most authentic Self is deeply hidden to allow the cycle of this game to proceed normally.
This guide is a player manual, a game strategy that will introduce you to the mechanics of "The Earth Game," the roles of players, interaction methods, and various matters throughout the experience cycle.
Although it's called "The Earth Game," the main character of this game is you, not the Earth; you are also the main character of the entire universe; hence, the guide will revolve around you and explain everything you encounter in life.
Reading Suggestions
Some of the content in the guide may seem familiar to you, and that's normal. This guide is not the only one of its kind. In fact, throughout history, many people (in philosophy, Buddhism, science) have also remembered or understood the nature of the world. These people have left many guides, and you may have read some of them, more or less, here and there.
Some of the content in the guide may be difficult for you to understand because it is so different from the world you usually see. You may become more confused, and that's also normal. It is quite mysterious to have a guide that describes the game appear within the game itself, as it's easy to be confused when you're part of it.
Your past experiences and knowledge may make this guide easier to read, or they may prevent you from stepping outside your previous understanding. Either way, it doesn't matter, just avoid being prejudiced or clinging to your own views. For the parts that are hard to understand, the guide will gradually provide more detailed explanations.
In other words, do not read this guide with expectations, and you won't feel resentful for not finding a solution, obsessive from understanding something, or discouraged from not being able to continue.
This is not an "official" guide; it is what I have remembered. At first, it may not be coherent. I will try my best to divide it by themes, and you can read whatever theme interests you. The order is not important for this guide.
This is also not a complete guide. As I remember more, the content is constantly being improved and updated. Come back often, and you might find new content that happens to answer your questions.
To cross the river that blocks you, you can swim across it yourself, walk over a bridge, or take a boat. The guide is just one of those bridges. Once you've crossed the river, there's no need to dwell on the bridge.
What I have remembered, you can also remember, because I am the same as each of you. I hope that when you can also remember, we can work together to improve this guide.
If you have any thoughts, confusions, or suggestions during your reading, be sure to 👉 contact me. What you think may also be what others are thinking, and it may help more people.
To Be Continued...
I am working hard on writing this guide, and more content will be presented gradually. Add this guide to your favorites for now, and come back in a few days to check for updates.
