The book “Forever Life 2” appeared in the National High School mock exam in 2021. Specifically, in part 1, the test contains an excerpt from the book, and candidates read and understand and answer questions about the message the author sends in the passage: “Knowledge and education are completely different from wisdom. People who study more degrees and have more knowledge are not necessarily more talented and wise than people. The more people rely on them, the more they think they learn, the more they cling to things. Their ideas are limited and they often show intolerance and empathy for other people’s thoughts.Those who are good at reasoning often prefer to argue, argue, disagree with others according to their thoughts rather than listening. , explore and empathize. Knowledge helps us argue and convince with valid arguments, but it will not really affect others, because it cannot really win hearts and penetrate human souls. Only what goes from the heart can reach the heart of another.” The passage in the above exam is one of the tips given by the author in the book to help people transform their minds to be able to overcome the terrible upheavals that are taking place. The work has pointed out the difference in rank that is often confused between “Knowledge” and “Wisdom”, between “Knowledge” and “Spiritual”. The limit of knowledge, knowledge is still not enough for humanity to understand the deep roots of all problems. People still need to achieve more comprehensive enlightenment of “mind” in order to be able to “see beyond” things. “Forever Life 2” gives you a new perspective on the world, the cycle of reincarnation and the law of cause and effect; wake up and cultivate a good attitude towards life. Following Thomas’s strange lives in the mighty civilizations of Atlantis and Egypt in volume 1, “Forever Lives 2” is Thomas’ next unprecedented journey on a train through time – no The period stretches from contemporary America, back to the Mesopotamian desert of Assyria to ancient Greece, Persia, and India through the conquests of Alexander the Great. The memory of the heroic warrior Achilles in the legendary siege of Troy, the sudden awakening of the undefeated great emperor when conquering the mysterious country or the mysteries of the tomb of tyrant Qin Shi Huang… The magnificent picture of the human condition has to rotate constantly in the causal storm of ambition, war, hatred and love throughout the history of the world. Not only are Thomas’ profound lessons on Cause and Effect, “Forever Life 2” also lifts the veil of mystery and explores the endless journey of souls through the realms, the transit station in countless lifetimes. living… All are summed up, logically strung together with a harmonious perspective between spirituality, science, philosophy and the history of civilizations from East to West, from ancient to modern. Through wise conversations, the work also offers a way to transform karma, at the same time, warn of great dangers and changes in the future of humanity as well as sending healing messages. Compared to part 1, the richness and breadth of knowledge of “Forever Life 2” is expanded in many fields to further clarify the universal law of cause and effect, the primordial energy that creates life. existence of all things in the universe, of which man is the most vivid reflection. As soon as it was released, the latest work of Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong created a fever, was well received by a large number of readers, even “hunted” as a spiritual “vaccine” in the midst of the peak of the world. 4th Covid-19 pandemic. The world is entering a period of many challenges and witnessing catastrophic and traumatic events that have never occurred in human history. The Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, natural disasters, storms and floods, forest fires, potential regional war risks cover people in anxiety and insecurity not understanding what is happening and will happen. With compassion, love and profound enlightenment, Professor John Vu – Nguyen Phong wrote this work to help readers better understand the law of energy, the close relationship between cause and effect, spreading the seeds of awakening and healing, and providing alarming analysis of the future of humanity in a very special period – the cycle of the planet.

The main character Thomas in Eternal life is a successful American businessman, also a confidant of author Nguyen Phong. In part 1, Thomas has lived through mystical lives, from the mighty Atlantis civilization to the ancient Egyptian kingdom of powerful Pharaohs to modern-day America. In part 2, Thomas continues his human journey through three lives Assyrian, Greek and modern times with a mysterious colleague from past lives, Kris. The incredible interlacing stories of the two easily explain the Buddhist lessons – from attachment to cause and effect, reincarnation… Attachment remains after death The story goes that, one day Thomas was visiting the old house of an old friend, this businessman suddenly saw a strange old man, turned out to be a spirit that passed away decades ago. This accountant’s soul implored Thomas to fulfill one wish: Destroy the papers recording the wrong payments of the former owner, because of sudden death the accountant was unable to do so. . “It’s been more than 80 years, I still have that in my heart and have never dared to leave this house. I have to stay here to keep the notebook, to avoid it falling into the hands of others,” the old man said. That is, just because of an unfinished task that his spirit could not escape forever. Thomas’s strange encounter with the old accountant’s ghost can help us figure out where we are in the river of destiny. Meeting is destiny, working with the boss is life; spending in the dark is the cause, and the notebook is the effect. The old accountant’s attachment is that the boss’s secrets should not be kept, secrets that can affect the reputation of the person he has served. It has become a stored part of the store consciousness of this life. “When a person dies, a person leaves the physical body and exists in another form called the bardo or spirit body. This is the intermediate state between death and the next rebirth. The only thing that really exists is the store consciousness, which is the basis of existence, the foundation of all consciousness. Every thought, word, and action in a lifetime, whether good or bad, creates a cause, or a seed, which is stored in the store-consciousness, never to be lost,” the book explains. Eternal life, part 1, 2 – Author: Nguyen Phong Sow cause and reap fruit Human life is like a dream, it’s too short for us to stop and reflect on what causes cause and effect, and then steps into the spirit world and the rest is just attachment. Meetings in Eternal life Part 2 is sometimes too mundane, like what we have been going through. But reading until the end, we realize, it turns out that every daily action can cause cause and effect, which no one can control. Thomas and Don C (the new owner of the accountant’s ghost house) make friends from a co-worker relationship that is also a result of cause and effect for both of them. Thomas meeting the spirit is a part of life, releasing the responsibility for the spirit to return peace to the Don C family is a part of picking the fruit. But it is also possible that Thomas is spreading past cause and effect, or new cause in the future. Still follow Eternal life In part 2, when cause and effect will bear fruit depends on many other factors such as inspiration, subsequent behavior and merit of each person. Causality interdependence manifests: “If this exists, the other is formed. When this arises, the other arises. If one does not exist, the other does not exist. When this is destroyed, the other is destroyed.” That is also the fate, the predestined birth. Our small actions every day can make a huge connection over time. The Mission of Reincarnation We humans are inherently sentient and as in theory Dependent origination of Buddhism, one can become entangled in the cycle of samsara. A continuous cycle of cause and effect can then be transmigrated to the six paths of reincarnation: heaven, human, Atula, animal, hungry ghosts, and hell. Thomas’s colorful journey back to his past life, through “the Mesopotamian deserts of Assyria to ancient Greece, Persia, and India through the conquests of Alexander the Great” has explained us better about this. the reincarnation of a human being. Thomas and his mysterious friend Kris have cultivated together for many lifetimes, although the path is not the same, but the predestined connection has caused them to meet again to complete their previous promises and missions. Or Thomas reunited with friends from past lives to relearn lessons to be learned. If there is a cause, there must be a result, so two people keep borrowing and repaying each other, lasting for many lifetimes without end. Such is the complexity of cause and effect in samsara. And each person’s task is to live a life that opens their hearts to everyone, develops love, and learns the lessons they need to learn, “instead of just worrying about beautifying the body, which is now dead and floating. life after life in the endless stream of samsara”, as Thomas explained.

The human brain is a complex multi-scale structure in which molecules, cells and neurons coexist. It can be modeled as a multi-layered network, called a brain connection pool. Neighboring neurons are connected to form local structures, and different local structures form connections to perform cognitive functions. The human brain is estimated to have about 86 billion neurons. To decipher where consciousness comes from, the researchers used a Swiss supercomputer and used algebraic topology to build a detailed model of the cerebral cortex. Through testing the response of the mathematical model to virtual stimuli and examining the reality of the mouse brain, the researchers were able to determine the details of the neural network on a single neuron. and the entire brain structure. At the same time it was discovered that there are different types of high-powered activity in the brain consisting of a three-dimensional geometric structure – tightly connected clusters of neurons and existing regions. space (cavity) between them. These empty regions appear to be important for brain function. When the researchers applied the stimuli to their virtual brain tissue, they found that the neurons responded to the stimulus in a highly organized manner. This means that as we think about problems, clusters of neurons will gradually coalesce into higher-dimensional structures, forming holes or voids of height. The more neurons in the clusters, the higher the size of the gap, and the highest limit that can be achieved is 11 dimensions. The whole process always follows the order from low to high, the structure will become more and more complicated and eventually collapse. It’s like building a castle on the beach, the castle gets taller and taller and eventually it will collapse on its own. This is exactly like the large-scale filamentous structure of the universe, where galaxies and galaxy clusters form a giant filamentous structure with a giant hole in the middle. In a recent study, it was discovered that our Milky Way galaxy lies within a giant hole one billion light-years across. This study provides new discoveries about how the brain processes information. Scientists speculate that high-dimensional gaps in neuronal structures may be where the brain stores memories, but it’s unclear how these blocks and gaps are formed. How it works, so further studies are needed to determine the connection between the multidimensional structure of neurons and complex consciousness. The interaction between the human brain and the universe is completely different, but there have been many observations and conjectures about the similarity between the neural network and the cosmic network under observation from a microscope and telescope. The researchers quantitatively analyzed the similarity between the two factors based on optical microscopy observations of brain tissue and high-resolution cosmic-matter network imaging, with the help of the method. network analysis. First, there is a huge difference in scale between the brain network and the cosmic network, which is similar only on a specific scale. Brain neural networks are now thought to consist of tens of billions of neurons. The number of galaxies currently observed in the cosmic lattice exceeds 100 billion. In addition, in the neural network of the brain and the network of the universe, only a small amount of matter constitutes the network. There are a large number of holes between giant galaxies, and about 70% of the mass is made up of dark matter. In the human brain too, which is a biological organ, the most important component is water, in the human brain, nerve cells are only 25% and about 75% water. Up to this point, “having water in your head” has a certain scientific basis. In the universe, dense clusters of galaxies predominate, while in the human brain, specifically in neural networks, nerve fibers create uniform small patterns. However, when the researchers increased the magnification of the microscope, they were able to see some similarities to the cosmic web in brain slices.

Craving for a deserted summer afternoon on the old eagle trees, wandering along Tran Phu Street watching crocodiles while jumping on the lakeside tram to buy books to Cua Nam, luckily picking up a few ripe crocodiles while competing with street children , then walk back to Son Tay, ask her for a few dime to buy snacks… Craving when going to To Tich Street to watch the filming. Spindles of all kinds, large and small, and wooden in color, not yet nailed. The goods are rotated and printed. Woodblock prints of all kinds… Craving for guava trees on the roadside to Quang Ba Lake to swim, wandering back to Nghi Tam side, the fighting fish tanks are enough to make any child tremble with desire. The fighting fish with dark black lead head, blue and silver fins interspersed with red fins spread wide like in the story “Crimson Sails”, splendidly and proudly beautiful when swarming each other in glass jars close to each other. The Hanoi of nine-tiered red-green clouds shoots a dime at a time to get a thin slice of honey-amber concentrate, twisted on a stick and pulled until ivory, a milky color, appealing to the masses. delightfully young. In Hanoi’s sweltering summer noon, only the sound of cicadas seems to be the main sound, when the red phoenix flower canopy is hooked down to the bunches, it becomes a game for children when hooking the flower hearts out, twisting each other and snatching them. , laughing excitedly when I won. Hanoi’s 11-storey house in Giang Vo is the highest in the capital, like a hero in the era of national architecture reaching out and occupying space, next to the coherent philosophies of French colonial architecture. Classical, neoclassical, Renaissance, art-deco have strong geometric lines, breaking away from the strict layouts of columns, interspersed with the successes of the first generation of pure Vietnamese architects of Vietnam. Indochina College of Fine Arts. Hanoi of only the pale green when standing on the side of Thanh Nien street, looking to the other side of Xuan La and Xuan Dinh lakes or on clear days, seeing the whole Tam Dao range in the distance. Like a passing moment of doubt, somewhere in the heart of the old town, there are still spaces and images of childhood memories that evoke exclamation. Go through the month.

Banh chung and banh Tet have bright colors This is not only one of the auspicious signs of Tet but also explains why banh chung and banh Tet are two indispensable items on a Vietnamese Tet altar. Plum blossom bloom is a good omen for Tet Photo: Anh Tuan. Lush kumquat tree It is natural for trees to sprout and sprout in the spring, so if your home has a green tree with many leaves in your house, pay attention to their branches, if the tree has many green buds, that year will have many buds. If there are enough “four quarters”: Ripe fruit, green fruit, flower and bud will be lucky and successful for the whole year. Apricot flowers, peach blossom buds Our people think that after New Year’s Eve, if the apricot blossom (type 5 petals) blooms more and full, it is an omen. And luckier when there is one or more 6-petal flowers. The concept for apricot blossoms is the same: if the blossoming flower has many double petals (double flower) 3 layers (row) on the calyx and shaped like a rose, there will be many bliss.

So the question is? Can the deceased hear the cry of their loved one? Although there is currently no 100% confirmation of yes or no, after all, this test must be done when a person is dead. Whether people have short-term consciousness, consciousness after death or not. At the end of the 18th century, people tried and answered them. However, since this answer is only a single evidence, there are no repeated experiments, so the answer of yes or no has not been clearly verified. According to his research, Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier is a chemist and member of the French Academy of Sciences, he clarified the theory of oxidation in case of fire and laid a solid foundation for fundamental research on chemistry. . He can also be seen as a leader in the French chemical industry. Unfortunately, Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier’s private life was not consistent with the old notions at that time, he not only lost his passion for science but also lost his life. In 1769, Lavoisier won the title of honorary scholar of the French Academy of Sciences, at the same time, he used 500,000 francs to become a presumptive tax officer, subject to salt and tobacco tax, then took over. position on the Royal Gunpowder Supervision and Finance Committee. This was when Lavoisier was not only one of the most powerful men in France, he also stood at the top of his scientific career, winning the highest academic honor in France. As they say, prosperity and decline. When Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier is enjoying his perfect life, unfortunately, he gets caught up in the chaotic political situation after the French Revolution, and at the same time becomes a pawn to give to others the wrong side. The radicals in the French parliament at that time, to please the oldest people, decided to kill tax officials – who were considered “vampires” to suck people’s blood before the Revolution, in which there is Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier. Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier’s captors completely ignored his important contributions to the science and economics of France. Even if he made no mistake, Lavoisier still died because he was a tax officer. His death was destined to stabilize the hearts of the people. Faced with life’s misfortune, Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier remained steadfast, calm, not depressed and hopeless, thinking about what he could do in his last days. As a result, Lavoisier is that he decided to use his last life experience to prove something the world has never confirmed, which is whether humans are still aware after death, whether they can hear. See the voice of family or those who love you? When he stepped onto the guillotine, Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier called the executioner on his side, making the last plea in his life, that when he was beheaded, Lavoisier hoped that the executioner could watch. Will his eyes still blink and if they blink how many times? The executioner was amazed by the scientist’s request to die, and out of respect for the man with all his heart for science, he agreed to do this. The results of this experiment shocked the entire French academic community. The executioner had actually seen Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier’s eyes blink after his head left his neck, even blinking several times, a total of 11 times. Thus, Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier proved that his consciousness still existed and he could hear everyone’s sounds. In other words, although the Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier experiment was ruthless, he clearly showed that humans are still conscious shortly after death.

From the early morning of April 14 (the 3rd of the third lunar month), on the streets and markets in Hanoi, small merchants sold a lot of floating cakes, vegetarian cakes as well as baking ingredients to serve. citizen.

Floating cakes, vegetarian cakes are all made from fragrant sticky rice flour. Floating cakes made small balls of longan fruit, in addition to white, in red sugar filling, while vegetarian cakes are round and flat, filled with cooked green beans and pureed with sugar.

In order for the cake to be soft and easy to squeeze, the baker must soak the sticky rice, stir well with a little salt and then grind it.

After the kneading is finished, the cake is placed in a pot of boiling water. The freshly boiled cake will sink on the bottom of the pot. When cooked, it will float and be picked up and put into a plate.

At a shop on Ngo Thi Nham street (Hai Ba Trung), people waited in a long queue to buy floating cakes, vegetarian cakes to worship.

With the mindset of wanting to buy delicious cakes to burn incense, many customers have to wait about 30-40 minutes for their turn.

Mr. Pham Xuan Thanh, the owner of the restaurant, shared that he and his family members got up at 3 a.m. to make cakes, in time to serve the people. On this day, customers are crowded from early morning to dusk, so the whole family is always in time to rest.

At the Hang Be market (Hoan Kiem), the business is also busy. Floating cakes are made on the spot, when the buyer needs, the shop will squeeze the dough to do more.

On average, vegetarian cakes cost 20,000 VND / bowl, floating cakes cost 15,000 VND / plate.

On March 23, 2021, while gardening, Mr. Le Quang Hoa (Yen Trung village, Tan Lam Huong commune, Thach Ha) discovered and caught a pig-tailed monkey.

The information that Mr. Hoa caught the pig-tailed monkey was quickly known to many people, some people in Ha Tinh city offered the price from 4 to 10 million VND to buy back. However, all negotiations were unsuccessful when Mr. Hoa announced that he would hand over the monkey to the functional industry for release to the natural environment.

“Thanks to the propaganda of the local authorities and the forest rangers, we are very aware of the conservation and preservation of rare and rare wildlife. In addition to carefully taking care of the monkey in 3 days of captivity, I reported to the local authorities to have a solution ”- Mr. Hoa shared.

Thach Ha District Forest Protection Department and functional departments have identified a 9 kg pig-tailed monkey, belonging to a group of endangered and rare animals, so it handed over to Vu Quang National Park for release to the wild. At the time of handover, the monkey was in stable health.

It is known that from 2018 up to now, Thach Ha Forest Protection Department has received 6 rare animals including 5 monkeys and 1 turtle individual voluntarily surrendered by the people. Particularly in the first 3 months of 2021, the unit received 2 individuals of pig-tailed monkeys and moldy monkeys from Mr. Le Quang Hoa’s family (Yen Trung village, Tan Lam Huong commune) and Ms. Tran Thi Phuong (Lien Pho village, commune Thach Hoi).

Propaganda and mobilization of people to protect and preserve rare animals has been actively implemented by Thach Ha Forest Protection Department for many years.

On the morning of March 27, fishermen Vo Quang Hoa (Dong Tay Xuan village, Cam Ha commune, Cam Xuyen) released their nets in Cua Nhuong waters and caught a rare sea turtle.

According to authorities, a sea turtle weighing 5.2 kg, a red shell, and a yellow underbelly is a rare animal in the Vietnam Red Book. Anh Hoa has contacted the local authorities to release the sea turtle back to the natural environment. This is considered a beautiful act of local people to conserve the environment.

The voluntary handover of wildlife to the natural environment by local people has made an important contribution to biodiversity conservation efforts. Some even spend money to buy wild animals from hunters and hand them over to the forest rangers. For example, in 2018, on the way home from work, Mr. Nguyen Dinh Tue (living in Thach Linh ward, Ha Tinh city) discovered a resident selling a golden monkey (belonging to group 2B) for 2 million VND, so he purchased to return to the forest rangers.

Director of the National Park Vu Quang Nguyen Danh Ky said: “From the beginning of 2020 up to now, the unit has received about 560 individuals including monkeys, turtles, pythons … from the people. Among the individuals that voluntarily surrendered, there are many animals of high economic value. That shows that, when people’s awareness of protecting wildlife is increasing, the propaganda is more effective ”.

Vu Quang National Park receives monkeys from the Provincial Police Environmental Police Department to release them to the natural environment.

According to the Director of Ha Tinh Forest Protection Department, Hoang Quoc Huan, the propaganda, dissemination and education of the law on the management and protection of endangered wildlife and wild animals has always been paid special attention. and regularly renew the contents and forms in order to raise awareness among civil servants and all walks of life.

Since then, people’s awareness and responsibility for wildlife protection has been raised. In 2019 up to now, the unit has organized 68 deliveries between people, forest rangers and forest owners with a total of 625 individuals; Of which 97 individuals are endangered, precious and rare wildlife species of group IB, IIB, such as: langurs, monkeys, cool-eyed civets, civet civets, hornet python, king cobra, old bird bracken, spoonbill, eagle, turtle; 528 common wild animals such as: Hon, horn, bird …
