Today, to sum up the main principles of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism (even many western philosophers), the core point is thousands of words, which all boil down to these eight words: "Be reasonable if you are not in the mood."

Absent-mindedness means that when all the good and evil in the world are ugly, and words touch and bully and argue, everything is popular on the water, birds fly over the blue sky and sit and watch Yun Qi. After that, there was nothing and I was not confused by the outside world. They will not be deceived by other people's tongues. Shi called it "the Eight Winds don't move", Zhuang Sheng called it "the heart is like a mirror", Mr. Rusong and Ming Dow called it "doing something" and both said that "the heart is not in the realm". As for the great philosophers and scientists in the west, they seem to be persistent when they think of it, but they are not in the external environment. "Tao is outside the material world, and thought is under abnormal circumstances."

When dealing with things properly, it is because when dealing with things, don't overdo it and don't be ignorant. We should always stay awake and sober, and ignore them when we are confused, slack and unhappy. "It's selfish to let nature take its course and not let nature take its course. Whenever you wake up, don't let it fall "(Gao Jingyi). Emotions, sorrows, and sorrows are not expressed, that is, they are all in the middle, and that is the sum. To be neutral, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith are in harmony with benevolence, that is, to be reasonable. When it is reasonable, all human feelings, logic and scientific principles will be true to each other and naturally tend to match (of course, polishing time is indispensable). As Gandhi said, "Adjust one corner of a quadrilateral and the other corners will naturally become right angles."

If the heart is not in the realm, the last stream will flow in fatuity or madness, and it is necessary to make up for its bias by "taking things as they are"; We should convince people by reasoning, and the last thing we can do is to arrest people by reasoning and kill people by reasoning. Therefore, we must save their disadvantages through "not in the mood", we can have both, and we can't focus on nothing. This Confucianism has Zhu Cheng Wang Lu, Buddhism has patriarchal clan system, and Taoism has all the truth.

Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have the same starting time but different intermediate points. Generally speaking, the focus of releasing the old is "the heart is not in the ground", but there is also a "rational" side to starting to raise money (release), build a foundation (road) and protect the post after enlightenment; The focus of Confucian learning lies in "doing things properly", which is defined as benevolence and righteousness. But when kung fu reaches a depth, it is bound to be "absent-minded." Confucius "has no intention, no need, no solid, no ego", and once "rises and falls with the world". Western philosophy, science and other knowledge, in most places, should be "things", but scientists often "should be things", their hearts are not turned by the external environment, and they only focus on what they study. Their hearts are not vulgar feelings, and their outside is not vulgar confusion, but self-exploration. As for modern writers and artists, they seem to be infatuated, but when they became popular inspired by generate, they were also absent-minded.

Apart from the eight words "I don't know where my heart is, I treat things with reason", there are many disputes among Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and among them, and their shallow people despise each other and even are hostile to each other, which is contrary to what the founders (Confucius, Sakyamuni and Laozi) said. Once put into practice in daily practice, most trivial disputes have no practical significance. Most of these trivial arguments and endless differences can be attributed to the problems of western philosophy, such as world outlook, truth view and epistemology. My article is about the principle of life cultivation, the specific knowledge and manners are different, and the essence of cultivation is not unrelated. As the Zen master said, "All roads lead to Rome, and everything is ready, so why wait for consideration").

During the day, the trees are clear, the sky and the earth are wide when the wind comes, and the sun and the moon are long, so that we can really make use of the time with flavor.

The heart is not in the ground: not only not in the ground, but also not in the ground. It is out of phase. In the air, San Ji holds the air. What is the heart? Don't take pictures without moving. This is the ultimate state, but in normal times, as long as you appreciate it a little, you can benefit endlessly. Blindly go to the mysterious place, wholeheartedly seek this ultimate state, but gradually turn away.

In Lu's opinion, "Although the laws are different, their bodies are often the same" (Volume 98), "Water is a wave, which does not hinder the wave phase, and wave is water, which does not damage the wave phase. It is based on endless movement, and its nature remains unchanged. When the normal heart is the Buddha's heart, it is to observe the true meaning of the world "(Volume 3). Therefore, Mr. Ma Yifu said, "A saint has nothing to learn, but his temperament is clear and his righteousness is clear. In the event of a situation, he is the winner and will not be confused by others. " It can be seen that Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism, Protestantism and Western philosophy are not the same in origin, but they must be interlinked. A man of virtue has boundless realm, does not insist on one thing, does not come to see or see, and cannot be bound by teaching.

I come from Orientalism, which is deeply rooted. As for Zen, Neo-Confucianism and Laozi and Zhuangzi, their core essence lies in "the responsibility and obligation not divorced from the real world, but the complete spiritual freedom and liberation". Therefore, Buddhists have "life and death never tire of making a trip to Pu Xian" and "it is better to worry about the sea than to find treasure; If you don't live in the land of dust and excrement, you will be born clean and beautiful "(Jing Zong Lu, Volume 32). The Vimalakīrti Classic says, "For example, the land on the plateau is not born with lotus flowers, but with wet mud, which is born with porcelain. ..... So it is necessary to know that all troubles are planted for Tathagata. For example, if you can't go beyond the vast sea, you can't get priceless pearls; Don't worry about the sea, you can't get the treasure. " Therefore, the practice of joining the WTO is consistent with that of Confucianism. "Yao and Shun's career is like a little cloud space", and Taoism's health is free and unfettered, "not thick and not entering the room". Although its appearance is different, what is its heart? Teacher Yin Shun said, "Mahayana is a great victory for mankind" and "The Tathagata's secret collection of three virtues is nothing more than the highest achievement of life virtue" (Introduction to Bodhisattva's Mind and Behavior). Therefore, it is clearly stated above that "the heart is not in the realm, and everything depends on human effort."

Buddha's last words said: everything is impermanent, so be careful not to let it go.

The first two sentences are "I'm not in the mood" and the last two sentences are "I should let it be". It can also be seen that "the heart is not in the realm" and "should be reasonable" can not be neglected. If you can't understand impermanence, your heart is often tied to the outside world; If you can't do your best, you will become lazy and relaxed. Both of them are biased. Being aware of impermanence, making unremitting efforts and breaking away from the normal state is the right way.
