There's another passage I want to record directly:
"Spiritual learning is not suspended. Only by combining him with practice is the best destination. I always say that's why I have to hone my skills. If you want to close the case, you should learn psychology from this matter.
For example, when you judge a case, you should have an innocent heart and don't get angry because of the rudeness of the other party; You can't be happy because the other person's words are euphemistic; You can't punish each other because you hate their demands; You can't condescend to forgive each other just because you sympathize with each other's pleading; You can't close the case at will because of your own affairs;
If you put aside your own affairs and practice blindly, you will fail everywhere and you will not get the true meaning of psychology. "
From "Conscience" to "Practice". This is the real kung fu of practice.
Kazuo inamori believes that practicing at work is the most important and effective way to exercise the soul, improve the soul and cultivate personality. When we are working hard, we use our work to hone our hearts, raise the level of our souls and light our conscience.
I chatted with a friend the other day. He has a great career and loves reading. He said it is more difficult to be a colleague than a friend. As long as friends are interesting, being a colleague not only recognizes your values, but also recognizes your ability. If this requirement cannot be met, a group of people will wait for one person, and the company will lose a lot. He said that people have to do things if they want to grow up, and so does reading. If you have questions and directions, you can read books and use them flexibly. These statements make sense.
The boss of my previous unit managed more than 40 thousand people, and there were many meetings and affairs every day for more than ten years, which made my career scale today. Some people say that entrepreneurs are ascetic monks, otherwise they can't do this job. Too boring and too hard. Why can they persist? This is an exercise. As my friend said, many people don't practice, but they practice better than many people, while many people talk about "practicing", but they are too arrogant and completely unprofessional to work together. The key is whether it conforms to the Tao and is actually used.
When we came into this world, we didn't have a fixed standard to judge our life. But everyone has a positive heart to drive themselves to work hard, improve themselves and live a complete life. This is the basis of practice. If a person has one and only one identity, he should be a "yogi". There is nothing mysterious about practice, it is in our life and work.
Master Huineng, the sixth ancestor, said: "Buddhism is in the world and never leaves the world. After death, Kubote is like seeking a rabbit's horn." This is a fact. Many people admire this attitude: "Do the things of joining the WTO with the heart of being born", which all means this. Very good!
So everyone is saying that "work is practice", but few people explain the reason behind it. This is a meaningful thing, or it can inspire us to make progress together. Summarize into eight sentences, encourage you!
1, we should know that people are not isolated, and our every move is inextricably linked with the world. You buy a bag, which may be a factory in half the world, producing, supplying, transporting and finally arriving at us; You eat a meal, from planting to harvesting, to shopping, to cooking, there are countless people behind the hard work. If we only use "money" to buy and evaluate other people's labor, it is too superficial and fickle. Work is to repay and be grateful with one's own labor. This is the right way to wait. Give up work, do not think about commitment, practice alone, and only seek personal liberation. On earth, you are consuming your own blessings, and on earth, you are cutting off your contacts. The end result is to make your own path narrower and narrower. The heart was taken away. Work is an opportunity to build good relationships. From survival to life, to life, from family to people in the whole society, let work benefit more people. When a grateful heart has lost the most people, our sense of happiness will be enhanced, our troubles will fade, and then our life will be wider.
2. abandoning "you" is actually not "empty". "emptiness" is embodied by "being" There is no such thing as "practice". Practice is embodied by "commitment". Just as all beings are the platform for becoming Buddhas, work is the platform for realizing the value of life. Bodhisattva comes back through "willing power", and if she doesn't give up all sentient beings and doesn't come back, she will fulfill her own resources. While we earn the wealth in the world at work, we should also take this opportunity to earn "legitimate wealth" and achieve our own wealth. This is the meaning of work. Don't define work narrowly, give full play to your energy and do your due role. The value of housewives is not much lower than that of business owners. From the point of view of emptiness, their merits and demerits are no different. Merit lies in the heart.
If work is just a means of earning a living, it is a great pain in life. If we just want to make a living, we only need a little work, which is not worth and does not require us to work so hard. Work is a necessity of life, because it is a reasonable way of life. In the west, working five days a week and taking two days off is called Sunday. This is an orderly and moral life. In Buddhism, "if you don't work for a day, you won't eat for a day." Or there is a cloud: "a hard day, a day's sleep." A day's hard work is a considerate comfort, the so-called "peace of mind." There is another cloud, "Do your best to know the destiny", and doing your best is the destiny. Moreover, a life that opposes work and hobbies is unhappy because it causes division. The two statements "need to love work" and "work is work" are unreasonable. It's either love or parting. Work is a kind of commitment and responsibility, which we should take for granted. This is calm and harmonious. At work, we are full of interest, while in hobbies, we are serious. Both are our careers. Play, we are serious. That's good.
4. Be "diligent" and "humiliating". Continuous progress and innovation is the best state of life. Know how to "work hard for it" and constantly examine your vision and your motivation. This is courage and diligence. We are not an island. At work, we will inevitably meet people we don't like, meet things we are not good at, and need to challenge impossible challenges. This is "humiliation". In cooperation, being loyal and forgiving to others, not observing, paying more attention to merits and changing one's habits is called reversing one's "equal flow" and "continuation" in Buddhism. If our "heart" is a "stream", there are many lazy, timid and selfish factors in it. Only by "doing things" can we "clean" through pressure and responsibility. Elite is not born, but "made".
5. Achieve "meditation" and "wisdom". The real determination is not to wait and die, nor is it born with one heart, but not to be chaotic, which is what Goodall said, "Eat while eating, chop wood while sleeping, and sleep while sleeping." This is the point of mind control, concentration and efficiency. "Walking, living, sitting and lying are all Zen", and the same is true at work. Careful planning in the early stage, key implementation in the middle stage and timely optimization in the later stage. Doing one thing at a time and improving day by day means "living in the present". The "wisdom" brought by "meditation" in such works is extraordinary. "Meditation" allows us to observe at any time from the perspective of whole and movement. We have the ability to distinguish between general stages and different stages, whole and local, macro-collective and micro-individual, and to have insight and make choices. Seeing the reality clearly and grasping the choice is the wisdom of work.
6. "Warning, determination and wisdom" to achieve personal and collective life. Those who don't understand think that abstinence is a kind of restriction, while those who understand it know that abstinence is a kind of accommodation and protection, and it is welcome and comfortable. "Life is determined by precepts, and wisdom is determined by precepts", so it must be. People who can't control themselves and are cautious and independent will never succeed. A company without rules is not necessarily an excellent company. Some things must not be touched at work. This is our protection. The most basic Buddhism is the five precepts of "killing, stealing, lewdness, madness and drinking", while in the company, it is "intrigue, bribery, crooked ways, obedience to the sun, confusion and confusion". At this time, it is impossible to have a "set". We all know about individual life, but we don't know about collective life. If a company is regarded as a collective life, it should have its own "sense of smell, thinking and repair" and "caution, determination and wisdom". When this living body can make this system run freely, and individual life and collective life are completely integrated and distinct, everyone will feel the sense of independence and joy, and the collective will roar forward as an increasingly large group. This kind of team will have invincible power and produce the most achievers.
7. The family is a Dojo, and the company is also a Dojo. The so-called "Dojo" is a place where a group of like-minded people practice Taoism together and grow together. In the family, we should grow up with our families. In the company, you should grow up with your colleagues. When everyone is eager to grow up, there is no time for chatting, arguing and fighting. Such a place is also called "learning organization".
8. In Mahayana Buddhism, the Bodhisattva receives infinite beings and has infinite means, relying on the power of the heart. Among them, the core is compassion, which is manifested in four means, namely "four-shot method"-giving, love words, benefiting behavior and benefiting colleagues. You also need the "four-shot method" to practice at work. Giving includes not only money giving, but also smiling giving and caring giving, and more importantly, "giving according to law", which teaches others how to work, their own experience and lessons from the past. Sharing is our fastest growing way. Love language, speak soft language, be good at listening and communicating, and give empathy and encouragement to others. A lot of harmony at work actually resonates outside of work. I wonder if you have any experience. In order to benefit others, we should make them profitable in our work, get money and help others fight for benefits. Otherwise, why do people come to help you, support you and accompany you? Colleagues just work together. When leading, don't be divorced from the masses. The victory of women's volleyball in these two days is well said: "Win together, lose together." Working together and sharing weal and woe is the minimum responsibility for the work and the minimum respect for others. This is the foundation. Without this, everything else is rhetoric and has no real meaning.
I was going to write eight sentences, but I was so wordy. Since this is an exercise, can you make it clear in a few words? In this article, I accidentally used a lot of Buddhist words, which is also because I can't use Buddhism flexibly and I am not proficient. Far from it.
On his deathbed, Wang Yangming said: "This heart is clear, what can a husband ask for?" How open and chic it is. Work and commitment constantly expand our minds, from small to large, from weak to strong, until clean, comfortable and bright.
However, the education and experience we are receiving now include the guidance of books on the market, "grasping the situation, Ming Dow, and excellent skills", and so on. Many times, the "Tao" is not clear, but just learned to guide the situation and optimize the technique. This is good enough. More people accept the idea of workplace evolution. From being a donkey, how to become a dog, how to overcome the fox's sneak attack, avoid the pig's teammates, then evolve into a wolf, and finally become a majestic lion. This is mean, even obscene. But this seems to be becoming the mainstream vaguely. When work is not as a promise, not as a method of self-interest and altruism, this idea is bound to become popular.
The value of work is self-evident. But we seldom think about and examine the value and significance of work. You know, work is your best value endorsement. Not your good figure, not your good family. Work is a person's most glorious label.
Work is the best practice. On the other hand, practice is the best job.
