In China, there is an old saying that "silence is golden". Many people think that this is an emphasis on "facts speak louder than words" and "to protect our health". Confucius once said:
It means that if the country has a way, it must be justified; The country has no choice but to be honest, but it should be easy-going and cautious. Zhang was a great scholar in the Qing Dynasty, a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and served as an official for 50 years. He also upheld the motto "Silence is better than words". So what we call silence, first, emphasizes the traditional view, and prudence and prudence can preserve health. In the workplace, people always emphasize not to highlight themselves and talk more. The second is to regard reticence as a good personal moral cultivation. "The Analects of Confucius Lutz": "Confucius said: resolute, wooden and close to benevolence.
The uniqueness of Koike Ryunosuke lies in his deeper explanation of "silence", which is not only the embodiment of self-protection and self-cultivation, but also the embodiment of his sympathy for others. It is not only a way to be yourself, but also a way to get along with others and a way to live.
Suddenly, silence entered the "Tao" level.
Lao Tzu mentioned in the Tao Te Ching:
I have three treasures: one is kindness, the other is frugality, and the third is not being the first in the world.
Not daring to be the first in the world is the way of silence.
Silence is not facing the wicked retrograde, simply being a good person and being a shrinking turtle, but restraining one's desire to make public and express. Because they are obsessed with "themselves" and each other's self-awareness, they constantly expand themselves without considering others, which leads to their physical and mental exhaustion. Koike Ryunosuke stressed:
Coincidentally, a few days ago, there were always people in the QQ group of Happiness Evolution Society arguing about such issues because of their personal growth methods, and the argument escalated into a quarrel, which was not abusive, but it was also very strong. Confirmed by the contents of this book, I found that the problem is that everyone is eager to express my views, or emphasize "I was wrong about you", and then they are not convinced of each other, and then personal attacks appear.
From the perspective of Buddhism, the author thinks and analyzes the reasons for this mutual attack and criticism, which are greed, ignorance, three poisons, confusion (stupidity), then unhappiness (anger) and desire for self-esteem (greed for fame and fortune). If the three poisons are all embodied in action, they will emit a malicious atmosphere.
As mentioned above, this little book is not a book to teach you to shut up completely and keep silent blindly. Silence for the sake of silence will only make the occasion quiet and unpleasant. It tells people to understand what "silence" is first, and then learn how to be silent, because silence is not an end, but a sign of realizing their spiritual liberation in turn.
? Nirvana sutra? Say:
It means that you should be your inner teacher, not your inner teacher, and let it call the shots. It is a big mistake for a yogi to use his heart. Some people may question: "We always say' Don't forget your active mind', so how can you explain not being a teacher?"
Most people are ordinary people, and they can't reach the realm of "nothing comes, where is dust". Therefore, they should always be vigilant against paranoia and anger, and should not absorb the ubiquitous hostility and negative energy in the present society like a sponge, but should have:
Such a state of mind, we should be alert to our own state of mind, of course, always be alert not to lock our hearts in the safe every day, but to lead to "loss of heart." From the perspective of Buddhism, the author points out that all kinds of negative resentment lie in the role of thinking and understanding, and explains a lot. As a monk who joined the WTO, the author also puts forward three forces: thinking, determination and giving up, in order to reduce the three poisons of wishful thinking and greed:
To this end, the author used about half of the space to explain how this whole set of methods was done. Some of them are very interesting. For example, the author takes eating as an example:
This delicate and true description alone touched me a lot. Worth reading.
We usually think that silence lies in dormancy. I ching said:
The way of silence lies in it. The purpose of silence is to make a blockbuster today and in the future. The way of silence in this book lies in cultivating the mind. The Diamond Sutra says:
