Buddhism said: what you get, you will lose what .
complains about the hardships of life every day, and when I get hatred, I lose my mood, and I will be disappointed all my life; if I still care about what I lost, then I'm competing against the "emptiness", even if I forcefully gain it in the end, I also lose the original. Some mood.
The height of life is not how many things have been seen clearly, but how many things have been "belittled". Everyone's heart is a good field, and only by removing the weeds called "care" can we free up fertile land to nurture good luck.
As the master of Shengyan said at the opening of the lecture, gain and loss are a kind of balance in life. Life is not perfect. It is best not to care too much about being a human being. If you care too much, you will have a miserable life in that life, and you will be prone to bad luck.
01 "Concession heart" is more meaningful than "life and death"
During the teaching process, Master Sheng Yan told such a story.
Once a mage and his old friends went out for a parade. On the way, the old friend asked the mage whether the people who cultivated Buddha had the highest goal of achieving "life and death". Master
just smiled silently when he heard the words, and replied:
yes, and no. In the eyes of many Buddhists, ‘life and death’ is indeed the highest state of cultivating Buddhism, but to me personally, its significance is not the heaviest. For me, in the process of cultivating Buddhism, it is more meaningful to cultivate a ‘retreat heart’ that forgives oneself and forgive others and does not make a living.
The so-called "life" is not meant to let people spend the rest of their lives and hang themselves, but to understand life, understand what is going on in life, and understand the principles of life. "Get out of death" means that you are no longer troubled by death, and free yourself from the fear of death.
However, there is a certain connection between all this and the "concession heart", because if a person does not give up the heart, it is difficult for him to understand life, and he cannot be relieved in the face of the world. Such people can hardly expect them. In the face of life and death issues, achieve true liberation and enlightenment.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Master, it is more practical and meaningful to repair the "concession heart" than the "life and death".
In real life, the caring people often live unhappy. Because I always stare at life, for fear of losing a penny of profit, I compare with others everywhere, making others unhappy, and making myself sleepless.
is like what the Buddhists said, " will become angry at a thought, and a million barriers will open ." In severe cases, they may even get angry because of a momentary dissatisfaction. In the end, they will not be pleased, but they will cause bad luck. Continuously.
In this world, there is nothing worth hurting and hurting our minds and bodies. We should put our minds upright and can afford to let go. Only by grasping the precious things in our hands can we be considered as the greatest happiness for the rest of our lives.
is yours, it is yours after all, not yours, you will not have the original beauty if you get it, and a truly comfortable life is not a vested interest, but a clear sense of measure. Only by not pursuing too much can you realize: If there is no meditation, it is a good time in the world.
02 tolerance will bring boundless merits
Shengyan Master said:
alone determines the lower limit of fame and wealth, the virtue quality of the generous content determines the upper limit, a wide heart makes good things happen, a narrow heart makes all good things difficult and bad luck.
Many people have a big misunderstanding of the word "broad and forbearance". As the saying goes, " people are good at being deceived, and horses are being ridden ". This kind of statement makes people subconsciously think that tolerance is cowardice, that is, to practice oneself. .
can the truth be so unbearable? actually not.
Disputes can be seen everywhere in this world. Tolerance and concession are inevitable, and everyone should learn. If every dispute, everyone has their own opinions and is unwilling to tolerate, then it will be as small as between people. Arguments, as far as the war between nations, the world has long since become chaotic.
Tolerance and concession are more like wisdom than compromise, it is a supreme spirit. If a person has the broad-mindedness that is inclusive of all rivers and the courage to forgive others, then no matter what field he is in, he will be respected by others.
On the contrary, a narrow-minded,Not tolerating the slightest flaws in others is to lower one's own structure and put oneself at a low level, causing others to avoid taboos, and it is destined to be difficult to achieve. When the fate will be exhausted, the blessings will dissipate, and the disaster will disappear. Going first, that is the biggest "bad luck".
At the same time, tolerance is also the best thing for others. Because of tolerance, many people have the determination to turn back the prodigal son. Because of tolerance, the original bad ending has room for reversal.
You can also choose to be tolerant in the face of the faults of others, that is, to accumulate good destiny merits for yourself invisibly, because there is no bad person in the world that cannot be influenced, if because of your temporary forgiveness, it can change a person’s good and evil, to the person who made mistakes An opportunity for the "prodigal son to turn back" is to have the grace to reinvent the individual and make a huge contribution to the entire society. This is the merit of tolerance.
03 Rao Renfu Zilai
Master Sheng Yan said: " can be forgiven and forgiving. Smart people face disputes, and they can make three points if they are reasonable. Those who are obsessed with the truth will only fail the truth in the end. , Lost the friendship, lost the open-minded ."
In reality, people who like to grasp the pain of others are very unpleasant. In this regard, few people would object to it. Such people are not only easy to hurt the self-esteem of others in behavior, but also not necessarily so noble in character. They are often known for being petty and despicable. Since ancient times,
has been a way of "being virtuous". To put it simply, being virtuous is to educate people and things with profound morality, and tolerance is the embodiment of the pattern.
As Mr. Lu Xun said, “the greater the greater the person, the more often able to help those who broke off with them, take care of those who are unsympathetic to them, and forgive those who have done unrighteousness to them”, because there are endless retributions. Only by reason and not having a holiday can we make good destinies.
"Tolerance is great" at the same time, being able to tolerate others can be regarded as adding blessing to oneself. Because forgiving others is also giving yourself a chance to grow. Being able to forgive others' faults will increase your mindset invisibly and improve your self-cultivation.
All in all, tolerance comes from our understanding of things, and more from our own understanding of life, and regardless of the right and wrong of the other person, first of all, don't let your own rationality become arrogant and arrogant.
is not blindly accommodating, but is to the greatest goodness of oneself, not provoking trouble, but to find the best step for each other to relieve embarrassment, dissipate bad luck, try to learn a way of forgiveness, and control when burning in anger When I learn to handle problems calmly, learn to fulfill others generously, and give roses to others, I will have a lingering fragrance in the end.
The communication between people is mutual, let others be one foot, others will respect you, as Master Shengyan said, all the roads in the world, only the path of mind is the most difficult to walk, care is narrow. Tolerance is wide.
With tolerant heart, to others, you will exchange respect and courtesy of others; treat life with magnificence, bad luck will dissipate, good luck will follow you, and life will always be open to yourself.
