Chapter 47 Chapter Six

Running down the gully on the east side of the mountain leg along the fissure, and meeting up with a platoon from the third battalion of Regiment A who came for reinforcements, the instructor Chen Guoqing felt that his wish had come true! The idea of ​​bringing reinforcements to the 634 Heights to support the Ninth Company's battle appeared in his consciousness when Xiao Bin asked Deputy Head Liu to go to the 633 Heights and was approved.It was at that moment that he had a deep understanding of the dangerous situation of the whole battalion after the enemy launched a large-scale counterattack against the highlands 630, 632, and 633 in the direction of Emerald Ridge—the deputy head would not let the battalion commander leave unless it was the most critical moment Own command position! ——It was also at this moment that he clearly realized that in the entire 632 Highland area, the deputy head is still most worried about the Ninth Company up and down the 634 Highland, and the Nineth Company is also in the most dangerous situation! There is Deputy Battalion Commander Cao on Highland 632. The battalion commander went to Highland 633. The deputy instructor of the stretcher team has not followed since he crossed Qipanling. He is the only battalion commander who is still in the battalion command post. Even go, and the sooner the better!

Of course, you can't go to the Ninth Company alone like Xiao Bin went to the Eighth Company, it is meaningless.What the Ninth Company needs now is reinforcements.In a hurry, he thought of the idea of ​​requesting reinforcements from the Command Post of Regiment A, which was immediately adopted by the deputy head of the regiment! Now the reinforcements from Regiment A are here. Although there is only one platoon, it is a team after all!Just now, he was worried that the deputy head would not trust him and would stop him from leading troops to Height 634, but the deputy head seemed to approve his request without even thinking about it!In the gully, he met with the little platoon leader of the 3rd Battalion and 8th Company of the A Regiment, and introduced the situation. As soon as he talked about the mission of this platoon, he saw that on the big hillside under the 631 Highland in the north, there was another Soldiers looming, jumping, dexterously dodging the clouds of fireworks blown up by the shells, like a long swimming snake, zigzag, intermittently, and quickly rush down the slope.

The afternoon sun was shining brightly, and every tree and every stone on the hillside reflected the sunlight brightly.Thanks to the abundance of moisture in the air, they all appear to be zoomed in, and every detail and detail is real and sharp.Chen Guoqing squinted his eyes and stared at an officer or soldier on the head of the "snake", and suddenly he was sure that he was a quick-legged, witty young man - the latter was active in the fireworks exploded by enemy shells Running around, lying down, disappearing and reappearing, and always appearing in an unexpected place every time.His figure is calm and vigorous, exuding the ability and indifference of a real soldier, as if he deliberately played hide-and-seek with the enemy's artillery and took pleasure in such a game.

"Good job!" Chen Guoqing admired, and the heart that was oppressed by the dangerous situation of the whole battalion was suddenly inspired and relaxed a lot because of the new reinforcements. "Guo Dong, hurry up and meet him!" He said to the guard. Guo Dong quickly ran along the bottom of the ditch to the northern woods.Chen Guoqing waited for a while, and saw the group of people on the hillside go down to the bottom of the ditch, enter the forest, and then walk towards the place where he was standing.He adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose in surprise: it turned out that the person he saw on the hillside more than ten minutes ago that made him admire from the bottom of his heart was actually a man wearing a helmet, a belt around his waist, and crossed his back on one left and one right. Young woman with pistol and field med kit!

Taking a few steps closer, he could see more clearly that she was still a fair-skinned young woman with some bright red lipstick left on her lips, and a rather radiant appearance. In women of the same type, the doctor's mark is often more prominent, but she makes people feel that she is a woman first! "Hello!...Welcome to support our battle!" Although it was on the battlefield, even though he quickly expressed his gratitude to the new team, it was not reinforcements, but a field rescue team of more than 30 people with a stretcher team Disappointed, Chen Guoqing still hasn't forgotten the gentle attitude towards people, especially women, that he developed in his childhood - the female military doctor who was obviously the leader of the ambulance team just stepped on a ridge on the north side of their foothold, and he walked quickly He went up to meet him, stretched out a hand from a distance, and said with a smile.

The moment he shook hands with Chen Guoqing, a little imperceptible embarrassment appeared on the face of the woman under the helmet, which was blushing in large swaths due to running.Previously, the female military doctor had learned from Guo Dongkou that an instructor surnamed Chen was waiting for them at the mouth of Chonggou Mizoguchi, but she didn't expect to meet a gentle white-faced scholar.Working in the division hospital for many years, she has long had a fixed view of battalion commanders and instructors from grassroots units: they are all dark-faced, smell of tobacco and alcohol, bold in their behavior, indifferent to women and The guy who used profane language to express his so-called "manly temperament", this instructor Chen was the complete opposite: his face was clear, sincere, and humble, and his eyes looking over through two glasses were kind and cautious-the latter point The feeling was directly conveyed to her heart through words and handshake actions—his hand had just touched her hand, and the handshake process was completed, as if her hand was a piece of fragile and precious porcelain. All of the expressions, gazes, words, and actions mentioned above contain a kind of courtesy to women and a sense of proportion that is suitable for it, which is not unimportant. It makes you happy to realize that you are being respected. And unconsciously showed his own good upbringing and elegant demeanor.Even on the battlefield full of gunfire, the female military doctor can't get rid of the habit of comparing every beautiful man she meets with Jiang Tao: the first time she met Chen's instructor gave her the impression that she was not only the same as Jiang Tao. Jiang Tao is different, and also different from Deputy Chief He who I saw in Maoerling yesterday morning; the masculine brilliance of Jiang Tao and He Yan is mainly manifested through outstanding or unconventional appearance, attire and behavior, which are basically external. The masculine brilliance of this Instructor Chen is the natural presentation of his own culture and upbringing. No matter whether his appearance is perfect or not, whether he is wearing a suit or leather shoes or a set of the most common military uniform, there is a deep meaning in his spirit. His elegance, refinement and kindness will all burst out of his body like light.The female military doctor suddenly realized that she had an unusual affection for the man in front of her, so the moment she shook hands, her face was slightly embarrassed.

"Hello. My name is Zhang Li, and I am a surgeon at the Teacher's Hospital." She said unhappily and blushingly to the man, while letting him catch her hand for the second time—this time he was helping her from the Jumping up and down the ridge, she came to the soldiers of Mizoguchi - "We are ordered by the command post of the A regiment to come to reinforce your battle." She wanted to say something more, but the other party's bright eyes had already expressed It shows that he understands their mission, so she doesn't need to say more.His gaze and attitude still contained his consideration for a woman, and the female military doctor felt it: he was keenly aware of your nervousness and uneasiness, so he stopped your words gently and kindly, so as not to aggravate you by continuing to speak. Embarrassment.

"I think so," Chen Guoqing said to the female military doctor and the platoon leader of the Third Battalion of the A Regiment after the battlefield rescue team had all arrived in Mizoguchi. It is considered to be a settled matter, "Now the situation in the 634 Heights is relatively tense, and there must be many wounded. All the gays here will go with me to support the battle on the 634 Heights. The female comrades will stay in the battalion command post and be responsible for the front bandaging of the Tongshi Hospital. The transfer and evacuation of the wounded contacted.” At this point, he glanced at Zhang Li, with a hint of apology flashing in his eyes, as if to say: I’m sorry, but according to my philosophy of life, it is inappropriate for a woman to go to the battlefield .

"No, Teacher Chen, I have to go!" Zhang Li panicked. Although the instructor was very careful in speaking and didn't want to embarrass her, she still felt embarrassed—all eyes in the ditch were looking at her. She, because she's the only "lesbian" here. "I am the leader of this rescue team," she finally found a reason that the other party could not refute in her eagerness, and her tone became firm, "I have to be responsible to all the team members, so I must not leave the rescue team!" She noticed that everyone—including the careful instructor in front of her—smiled slightly, and then she realized that she was too nervous just now; her face was flushed all the time, but now it was even redder.

The gunfire from the direction of 634 Heights suddenly became intense.Chen Guoqing glanced there, the smile on his face disappeared.Looking back, his eyes were filled with fighting passion and urgency. "Okay!" he said to the female military doctor.It wasn't that he agreed to Zhang Li's request, but that he suddenly felt that he could no longer delay the departure time for other things! Then he squatted down, spread the map on his knees, and studied the course of action with the platoon leader and the female military doctor from Height 628.Since the enemy in the direction of Jade Ridge has blocked the valley between the 632 and 633 highlands, it is impossible to approach the 634 highland along the route taken by Jiulian; the gully on the northwest side of the 634 highland is an impassable minefield. There is still a fierce battle between there and the legs of Yingzui Peak, and it is impossible to go there.So they chose the following route: First, go south from the mouth of the gully where they are standing to the foot of the northwest side of the 633 highland, and then cross the 633 highland obliquely to the southeast from there. The southeast side of the 633 Heights went down to the depression on the northeast side of the 634 Heights, and from there the troops were divided into two groups - Chen Guoqing led a platoon from the 628 Heights to attack the 634 Heights, and the ambulance team went to the battlefield to rescue the wounded.

"Do you both understand?... Well then, let's go!" Finally, Chen Guoqing raised his head from the map, and said to the two people squatting in front of him in a humble, discussing tone, while standing up, closing Picking up the map, he involuntarily glanced at the female military doctor. Zhang Li stood up now.Her senses were keen, and she suddenly realized that Chen Guoqing was staring at her, her eyes immediately went up to meet her, and her cheeks burned because of something strange in the other's eyes. In this way, before they set off, they smiled at each other faintly.This smile is polite to Zhang Li, and her feelings tell her that if instructor Chen just saw her as a soldier who joined the war, but at the last glance he admired her as a beautiful woman, she would have to be both happy and frightened Chen Guoqing gave the female military doctor a faint smile because the other party gave him such a smile, and because of this beautiful female military doctor, what he secretly admired was only her bravery, but at this moment he couldn't help it. Don't appreciate her youthful beauty and vitality! With such an idea, he moved the submachine gun to his chest and shouted to all the staff: "Let's go!" He rushed out of the ditch first!Zhang Li turned her head and gestured to her own people, and followed closely.At this moment, Chen Guoqing's heart moved again: he still felt that this beautiful female military doctor should not be allowed to follow him to the battlefield! ... If someone thinks that Chen Guoqing is fascinated by Zhang Li in a certain sense, he is not wrong.But if he said that what fascinated Chen Guoqing was not the concrete and morphological beauty in Zhang Li's life, but an abstract spiritual beauty that can be seen in Zhang Li's life in every woman, he would is more correct. More precisely, through the concrete and morphological beauty in the lives of female military doctors, Chen Guoqing saw a kind of belief in his heart——all women, regardless of beauty or ugliness, their life itself is beautiful—the latter rooted in his A longer and more secret knowledge of life: life—whether man, plant, animal, tree, shrub, wild flower, or even stone, water, mountains, and sky (because they are all life in the world) His partner has also entered his perception circle of life) - everything is beautiful. This unique concept of women and all living and non-living things in the world comes from a river of life that has flowed for thirty-one springs, summers, autumns and winters, and from the scenery on both sides of this river. Chen Guoqing spent his childhood and adolescence in a family of intellectuals with a combination of Chinese and Western virtues that respect women.His grandfather was a senior diplomat during the Beiyang government. His grandmother returned to China after receiving Western education to be a good wife and mother. His maternal grandparents were university professors who returned from studying abroad and devoted themselves to enlightenment education. His father was in Yan'an first, and after liberation he lived in Moscow, Paris, She is engaged in diplomatic work in New York, and her mother follows her husband all over the world as a wife, and is also the secretary of the diplomatic mission where her husband works.It was an old and wise grandmother who took care of him and his two younger sisters when they were young.In the old mansion handed down from the former Qing Dynasty by my grandmother, there is a large living room that integrates Chinese and Western cultures and is arranged according to her aesthetic taste.In the living room, she received the ministers of the new China, as well as the old acquaintances among the former Qing Dynasty veterans, but she spent more time receiving old-school intellectuals and men and women who shared her interests.Grandma's old living room is a stage, with carved and lacquered wood furniture in dark tones, old Xinjiang Hotan carpets, Arabic-style floor-to-ceiling curtains, a replica of the famous painting by French classical painter Ingres, and a scroll hanging beside the flower stand in Milan. Qi Baishi's "Shrimp Fun", the Ocean Wave piano produced in Florence in 1893 in the corner of the living room, and even the gestures of women holding coffee cups with their left pinky fingers on high stilts, an elegant atmosphere that will always remain in the air that is not flowing. The smell of French perfume and a snow-covered wintersweet flower swaying outside the lattice window in winter are all props and backgrounds on the stage, all the guests are actors, and the grandmother is always the heroine and the number one star in the play.Standing in a place out of the reach of the stage lights, Chen Guoqing watched the ups and downs of the plot day after day, and he subtly understood at least two truths early on: human life is beautiful, and women's life is especially beautiful; Compared with the material living conditions, the spiritual life of a person-reading, thinking, listening to music, singing, talking with elegant people-is equally important, if not more important.Eating can only make children grow taller, and only a rich spiritual life can make people fully and highly developed on a path different from ordinary creatures, and the latter is the real beauty of being human. When the "Cultural Revolution" was at the end of Qingping, the protection given to him by his grandmother ended.One middle-aged summer, a group of shabby "Red Guards" rushed into her old living room. The old man sat on the sofa he was used to sitting on and closed his eyes without opening them again.Soon after, his parents were recalled from abroad and sent to a factory in another place to receive reform through labor. Chen Guoqing and his two younger sisters, who were evicted from their grandmother's old mansion, moved into an apartment specially arranged for children of diplomatic personnel studying abroad.The first time he really walked out of his grandmother's old living room, he began to wander in both body and mind.He and his two younger sisters lived together in that apartment for a year, then went to the countryside to join the team, and joined the army two years later.No one felt that his life was more difficult than others.Even in those years, he has the qualities of humility and self-denial that he learned in his grandmother's old living room, his respect and kindness for others without discrimination, and he must first maintain the dignity of others in order to maintain his own dignity, which is manifested in his daily life The restraint, comity and sense of proportion in communication have won him general goodwill and respect in the eyes of the people around him unconsciously.In the fact that he was promoted to work in the Political Department of the Army after only two years in the army, he was unique among the soldiers who enlisted in the same year.No matter in the countryside or in the army, what was stuffed into his portfolio were all compliments.In the eyes of many people, he is almost the only perfect person in the world. No one knows what happened to Chen Guoqing's mind during these years.From the first day when he walked out of his grandmother's old living room, Chen Guoqing's ideal world has been severely damaged.In the past, all he saw was beauty, elegance, civilization, wealth, and modesty, but now he sees ugliness, vulgarity, barbarism, poverty, and arrogance; Realize that human life should be beautiful.The farther he travels in life's journey, the farther he is from his grandmother's old drawing room, his spiritual home, the more the life of the world takes its toll on his soul.For a simple need for survival, he had to compromise with the world in which he lived, and the compromise itself made him farther away from his grandmother's old living room.He is like a poor man who has been expelled from his hometown. He walks on the long journey of exile day by day, and feels more and more inferior to himself for living like this.Later, this vague inferiority complex even developed to a very serious level.For example, for a long time, he has always believed that he is a useless person who is useless to anyone.His grandparents, maternal grandparents and parents are all well-versed in Chinese and Western. As the third generation of this family, he can't understand ancient Chinese and foreign languages. He is not even a real soldier. At best, he is just a trivial military official. ——The more he thought about it, the more discouraged and desperate he became about the value of his own life. In such years a girl walked into his heart.Yang Min's parents are also diplomats and have lived abroad for a long time. She has been living with her grandfather. After the "Cultural Revolution" began, because the old man had accepted a private house as a gift from a certain Beiyang minister, he soon "killed himself in fear of crime". So one morning, Chen Guoqing saw a shivering man in the corridor of the boarding apartment for the children of diplomats studying abroad. , frightened girl.At first he protected her in the apartment, just out of pity, and when he went to the countryside before his two sisters to jump in, Yang Min became his two sisters' protector.For many years, he has maintained correspondence with Yang Min, first for his younger sister, and then for himself after his younger sister went to the countryside.Yang Min is not a specific person, but a connection between him and the world represented by the old living room of his lost grandmother, and even a secret passage for him to leave the real world and return to that world.It is difficult for him to return to that world, but as long as this secret passage is still there, his murdered beliefs about people and life can find a shelter.Yang Min later became his "home" - his parents were sent abroad immediately after "liberation" in the early 1970s, and his two younger sisters went to the countryside one after another. The management department took it back, and the three brothers and sisters had no place to stand when they were reunited in Beijing.At this time, Yang Min wrote letters to them respectively, asking them all to go to her place for "Chinese New Year".Chen Guoqing and his two younger sisters spent several bleak Spring Festivals at Yang Min's place. At that time, China's seat in the United Nations had been restored. There were often New Year's Eve nights where they sat around a small stove, carrying bowls of cooked food. Dumplings, while turning on the radio, I often suddenly heard the news of my father's activities in organizations affiliated to the United Nations.The sisters were still laughing just now, and immediately burst into tears. But his marriage with Yang Min dragged on for a long time.As time goes by, he has fallen in love with Yang Min deeply, and the real reason that prevents him from proposing to her is the inferiority complex deep in his heart.For Yang Min, he is not only the object of love betting, but also the embodiment of the spirit of the old world represented by his lost grandmother's old living room, the sustenance of his metaphysical thoughts about nobility, beauty, purity, elegance, etc. The secret way to escape to the heaven of truth, goodness and beauty.Moreover, whenever he tried to move his body and mind closer to the other party, Yang Min's sickly and thin body—it was because she was sick that she didn't go to the countryside to jump in the queue—would tremble like a dead leaf in the autumn wind .This incident hit him hard.One of the concepts given to him by his grandmother's old living room is that marriage is a serious matter, not only about the lives of two people, but also about the dignity of two people.Chen Guoqing also had to answer some questions that must be answered by himself more than once: Am I worthy to propose to Yang Min?Yang Min is willing to help me and my two younger sisters, or it is not out of love, but just out of benevolence. If I propose marriage rashly, won't it embarrass her?I am just a mortal whose mind and body are filthy by the mediocrity of life, but Yang Min is a flower that has endured catastrophe but has been blooming in the garden of God, a collection of metaphysical thoughts about the kingdom of heaven, a collection of As a proof that such kindness and beauty still exist in the world, won't I offend her dignity by proposing marriage rashly?If she didn't loathe me, why was she always terrified and trembling at my nearness?It would be even worse if she accepted my marriage proposal simply out of sympathy for our family, for marriage should be serious and beautiful from her side too.He couldn't answer these questions, so he couldn't make up his mind to propose to Yang Min year after year. Three years later, his parents returned to China and were going to be ambassadors to a certain African country. The family of five was reunited in Beijing. Only then did Chen Guoqing realize that Yang Min's fear of him might not be out of disgust, but a girl who no longer longed for happiness. Instinctive panic and suspicion born of love: Yang Min's parents were the last batch of "liberated", and they both died of illness before returning to Beijing from the "cadre school".They were not "persecuted to death," which makes their death a simple and unadulterated misfortune.After Yang Min lost his grandfather, he lost his parents, and became an orphan both in life and in spirit.When they met alone again, Chen Guoqing became bold and said what he had been wanting to say for many years: "Yang Min, I love you. I can't live without you. I hope you will agree to my marriage proposal." For a moment he completely forgot about the imperfections in his life.The manner, gestures and tone of his proposal were like those of the gentleman who had appeared in his grandmother's drawing room and had been politely rejected without losing his dignity.His same words today made Yang Min, who was trembling all over, sob.He regretted it, thinking that he had done something wrong, but Yang Min wiped away her tears, looked at him with her eyes as clear as the clear Beijing sky in winter, and said softly: "I thought... I can't look forward to this day!" An important turning point occurred in Chen Guoqing's life.The inner scenery after marriage is not so much joy and excitement, but an unprecedented tranquility and beauty. The sky, mountains, forests, valleys, streams and grasslands are all illuminated by the morning sun, and everything comes alive again. Once, fresh, bright, fragrant, and pleasing to the ear.He did not step into a brand new world, but returned to his long-lost hometown, and returned to the concept of truth, goodness and beauty that he has always been obsessed with.Yang Min's willingness to marry him has greatly cured his inferiority complex, but he also understands that his life is still not perfect, and he must work hard to make it close to perfection. So a few years before the "diploma craze" swept the country in the late 1970s, Chen Guoqing began his second study period in his life.He educates himself not to achieve some worldly goal, but merely to perfect himself.In fact, his low self-esteem in front of Yang Min implied his low self-esteem towards his grandparents, maternal grandparents and parents, and becoming like them was regarded as his goal of self-improvement.A child from a diplomatic family must first learn a foreign language. Chen Guoqing did not study one of them by himself, but as his grandmother said back then, he had to learn English, German, French and Russian at the same time.The military camp is not a good environment for learning foreign languages, but a person who has no distractions in his spare time can definitely accomplish whatever he wants, not to mention that he has the conditions to get help from his grandparents, maternal grandparents and parents' friends.He did not forget to learn his mother tongue. When the first batch of lucky students who entered the university after the "Cultural Revolution" graduated, Chen Guoqing also completed all the courses of the university's liberal arts by himself.He was just able to read all kinds of ancient and foreign books fluently, and the collection of books returned by his grandparents one after another pushed him into a wider world of knowledge.Reading is no longer for learning a language, it has become an experience, a spiritual enjoyment, a hobby and a desire.The longer he drifted in the ocean of books, the more he felt that there was nothing in his belly; or in other words, human knowledge is like a vast wilderness, and what he peeped into was just a grain of sand.Later, various knowledge systems and the cognitive frameworks that supported them disappeared together. What he saw was the flashes of human wisdom for thousands of years and their great labor of unremittingly improving themselves.Chen Guoqing perfected himself through learning and idealized his goal before he fully realized it, so he really understood why the learned grandmother was so humble, open-minded and self-denying in terms of spiritual essence.Chen Guoqing returned to the old question that he pondered in his youth in a trance, but his understanding was greatly deepened: human life is beautiful, but not perfect, and the former is manifested through the latter; not only are people and the world imperfect, The concepts of ideals and the kingdom of heaven are not perfect in themselves, they are just something that is constantly changing with the changes of human historical thinking, and they are the spiritual achievements of a certain stage in the process of human pursuit of ideals and the kingdom of heaven.Just like philosophy is the history of philosophy, rather than some kind of philosophical thought that was once regarded as the golden rule; it is impossible for people to make their lives and the world truly perfect, but they can achieve a higher degree of perfection by constantly pursuing perfection .His heart still longs for perfection and the kingdom of heaven, but he will no longer feel complacent in the mundane world; he has a new goal in life: don't be proud, don't think that you are better than others, live down-to-earth in the world, let One's own life moves towards the hopeful but not ultimate beauty little by little. These few years have been a period of peace and happiness in his mind.But with the passage of time, the discordant sounds in his life are gradually revealed, which makes him always troubled by it.He couldn't understand that Yang Min, who had weathered the ups and downs of fate so strongly before marriage, had become so fragile. The days of separation between the two places almost became an unbearable torture for her. The relationship between her and her mother was not always good; after all these years of marriage, she still hadn't learned how to cook, and in the days when he was away, she still ate in the cafeteria every day, making her skinny.She still has a heart problem: she has been unable to bear children after marriage.Chen Guoqing doesn't pay much attention to whether he has descendants, but Yang Min, like the most ordinary woman, has been feeling guilty and suffering for this matter.He also had his own problems: the more books he read, the more he thought, the more he wanted to write them out, but the army was not a good writing environment, and he couldn't provide him with a study room where he could meditate.He thought of being transferred back to Beijing, and soon a military academic research unit decided to accept him. Before the war, Chen Guoqing's transfer order went to the army.He liked the move, it would make his life, Yang Min's life, and his parents' lives more perfect.But when a war struck, he was determined to stay and fight before leaving the army.Like many veterans who have served for a long time but have never really fought in a war, he always felt that his military career was flawed, not to mention that the war was just around the corner, how could he leave like a deserter?Following this line of thought, he also made a report requesting to serve at the grassroots level: He stayed to fight to make his military career more perfect, this will be his last war, of course he wants to fight for the battlefield, Instead of staying far away in the army's rear command post like during the last border war! It cannot be said that he did not expect that he would die in the war, but like many people who lack battlefield experience, Chen Guoqing's understanding of war and sacrifice is not their own, but the heroic beauty they are endowed with. Bravery has always been used by human sages as the pillars of the city of God in wars and Homer's epics.However, even if the above conditions do not exist, Chen Guoqing will not give up the pursuit of perfection because of the existence of death threats.The spiritual wealth left by countless sages after contemplation has already made him understand: life is actually a process, Peng Zu cannot be called longevity, and death son cannot be regarded as death. Living is not the purpose, the most important thing is whether you can give This natural process is treated with dignity and beauty.Dignity and beauty are the supreme realms of life, and when you reach them, you will enter the kingdom of heaven. ...
