What is the most important thing in a person's life?
Is it money? Money is something outside the body, people come naked, will eventually go naked, can not take away a penny.
Is it fame and fortune? Master Yancan once said: fame and wealth in the world is nothing more than watching the moon in the water. How many red eyes and how many broken dreams? In the end, it's just white hair to cover your face, so it's okay to let go.
Is it status? Whether they are dignitaries or ordinary people, they will become loess after a hundred years. How can they be distinguished from those who are superior or humble?
Buddha said: three thousand prosperous, flick finger moment, a hundred years later, but a handful of yellow sand, people live, is a process, live seriously, gracefully grow old, live out of self, live with a clear conscience, this life, can have no regrets.
In a lifetime, two things
In the Tang Dynasty, a monk asked Master Dazhu Huihai: if monks practice, do they still work hard? The Zen master replied: work hard.
The monk asked: how to work hard? Zen master replied: hungry eat, sleepy sleep.
The monk does not understand: the world eats and sleeps, how can it be regarded as hard work? The Zen master replied, "this is different. People don't want to eat well when they eat, and they don't care about it in a thousand ways. When they sleep, they refuse to sleep well and think about it in every way, so it's different."
In a lifetime, it is not easy to eat when you are hungry, to eat delicious food, to sleep when you are sleepy, and to sleep soundly and sweetly.
Because the heart is filled with too much greed and hatred, always calculating, always worrying, how can you eat sweetly and sleep soundly?
In fact, life is very simple, only two things: hungry to eat, sleepy to sleep.
When eating, seriously chewing every mouthful of food, you will also be able to have a deep taste of life; when you sleep, you will sleep soundly and soundly, and there will be any obstacles in the world.
Eating, sleeping, tasting a cup of tea, watching a flower bloom, it seems like an ordinary thing, but as long as you can appreciate it and enjoy the joy it brings to you, you can see the extraordinary in the ordinary.
Seriously take a meal in life, day and night, live every moment of life swaying posture, is the best life.
Born a human being, but with a clear conscience
Some people say that the happiest thing in one's life is to earn clean money, live a stable life, and get a good night's sleep.
How do you do that? Mencius said: he is worthy of heaven, does not bow to others, and has a clear conscience, so that he can live a safe and secure life.
Nowadays, many people are keen to pray to God and worship Buddha, especially corrupt officials and rich people.
Li Chuncheng, former deputy secretary of the Sichuan Provincial CPC Committee, in order to prosper, spent a lot of money to invite the master to see fengshui, moved the ancestral grave to a piece of fengshui treasure land in Dujiangyan, and even spent tens of millions to invite Mr. fengshui to do the ashram.
If you earn dirty money, have a guilty conscience and can't sleep well, you will ask the Buddha for stability.
Little do you realize that if you ask God to worship the Buddha, you can't have peace of mind, let alone a good beginning and an end.
Evil deeds will eventually lead to evil consequences, not unrewarded, the time has not yet come.
Having a good heart, not doing evil, and having a clear conscience is the greatest feng shui in the world. You don't have to turn to God and Buddha, you can get blessed and blessed descendants.
On his deathbed, Su Dongpo said to his wailing family in front of his bed: I will not be evil in life, I will not fall in death, I have never done anything bad in my life, and I will never fall to hell after death.
Wang Yangming left only one last word on his deathbed: this heart is bright, and there is nothing to say. I have an open and aboveboard life, have a clear conscience, and have nothing to regret.
The gentleman is magnanimous, the villain is sad. People live all their lives, not for fame, wealth, but for a clear conscience.
Zhou Guoping once said: people's most precious things are life and soul. If you take good care of your life and settle your heart, your life will be complete.
Life, two things, eat well, sleep well, take good care of life, have a good health, have the opportunity to participate in all the good things in the world.
Act magnanimously, have a clear conscience, and settle your mind in order to be calm, lose your composure, go with your heart, and be at ease with the circumstances.
It doesn't matter whether you are poor or rich in your life, don't you eat three meals a day and sleep three feet at night? A hundred years later, is it not dust to dust, dust to dust?
Eat every meal, sleep every time, live worthy of your heart, and life is complete.
