The first element is benevolence. "If you know everything, you can say everything, but the discipline is the world, so it is not." This sentence means that the generous are blessed, and the benevolent love the world. So if you look at "knowing everything around you", your wisdom will understand the way of heaven and earth, care about everything around you, and see the law of heaven and earth running in everything. This is called "knowing everything around you". In fact, this "knowledge" is "wisdom" with the word "heaven" added. Wisdom depends on everything, and discipline is the world. If you could know everything, what would you do? Your mind will be very open, you will have a heart to help the world, and you will have the ability to achieve benevolence. Confucianism says benevolence, kindness to others, a kind person; Benevolent people love others, help the world, open their hearts and make Dao Ji the world. I will not only care about daily necessities, I will not be selfish all day, and I will only see my own petty profits. Bai Juyi said, "What happened to the snail's horn? I put this body in the fire of a stone. 」
Many people are lost, and he can't see the avenue of heaven and earth. The petty profit he strives for every day is like a small site on the tentacles of a snail, and there is any struggle on the corner of the snail. And you see, life is short, and in a blink of an eye, you have passed this hundred years. Then why do you fight for those petty profits unnecessarily? Therefore, to be a blessed person, the first thing is to be a generous person. Don't be intrigued with others all day, you can inherit civilization and be open-minded.
You see, each of us is similar in body, right? Everyone's physical weight is above 100 kg, but the spiritual realm is very different. Some people only see a little spirit and small interests in front of them. Some people's hearts are full of Buddhism and heaven and earth, so what we want to improve is our spiritual realm. Our physical bodies are no different for everyone, and they are all 100 kilograms. It is small, but our hearts can be filled with Buddhism and everything, so we must have a big heart.
As Zhang Zai (Zhang Hengqu), a great scholar in the Song Dynasty, said, "Make a heart for heaven and earth, make a life for the people, link the past with the future, and make the world peaceful." Can really do these four sentences, it can be said that he is the wisdom of all things, and Dao Ji is the best in the world. With this kind of dedication to the country, of course, this kind of heart is very broad, and nothing can surpass it, so it is called "so". "Knowing the things of Zhou, and Tao is the world, so there is no such thing." . No one can surpass him. This is actually the first condition for a benevolent and blessed person. You should be broad-minded, broad-minded-benevolence.
The second element is wisdom. "If you don't flow, you will be happy when you know how to live, so you don't worry." Why are you sad? Why are you unhappy? Because you are not wise enough, wisdom has no troubles, and compassion has no enemies. With wisdom, you can see through it, see through it, and you won't worry or be sad. "I know that life is happy when I walk beside the stagnant water, so I don't worry." This "side" should actually be the side connected to a single person. What do you mean by edge, edge, edge? Taking the Avenue of Heaven and Earth is called taking the Avenue. What is no flow? Don't go with the flow, don't go with the flow, don't go with the flow, don't go with the flow, you can be integrated with the world, you can be integrated with everyone. However, it is called "walking without flowing" if you don't follow the trend and don't pollute. I won't go with the flow, I can make decisions everywhere, and I have my own opinions, opinions and wisdom, so I don't go with the flow.
As Yi Xuan, the founder of Linjizong, said, being a master everywhere is the essence of Zen in Lin Ji.
His life is of course a life of wisdom, a life of happiness, a life of Lotte know life, and a life of Lotte know life.
The "sky" mentioned by China people is not the "sky" of astronomy. What is this? The "heaven" mentioned by China people is the avenue mentioned in the humanities, and the avenue is the sky. Can feel the conscience of doing things and conform to nature. This is Lott. Know life, if he knows the law of heaven and earth, he must know the law of destiny, and then he can change his destiny and stand on his own feet. This is great wisdom. Lotte knows life, which is the second element-wisdom.
The third element is courage. You see, the next step is to "be peaceful and care, so that you can love." The earth is the peace of mind. What is the earth? It is the ground. What is land? The ground refers to the heart. Peace of mind in Prajna, so "peace of mind and kindness." Kindness is to feel at ease on Prajna and do one's duty. You can feel at ease, so you can be kind, that is, you can practice, urge yourself to practice charity, and try to help all beings wake up. This is "to be kind".
When people are at peace, they will naturally be kind-hearted, love others with kindness and take pleasure in helping others.
Therefore, if you have peace of mind, you can be safe; Stand by yourself, then you can stand by yourself. So it can be seen that the third element of a blessed person is courage, so he can love. It takes great love to help all beings, and action, not words, means courage.
Therefore, we can see three elements of a blessed person. In fact, you can know what it is by reading the Book of Changes. To sum up, it is benevolence, wisdom and courage. Wisdom and everything is in Zhou, and Dao Ji is benevolent in the world; Flowing, Lotte know life is wisdom and wisdom; "If you are peaceful, you can love." This is courage.
So it can be seen that this benevolence, wisdom and courage, that is, what Buddhism says? There are three elements in practice, and the success of practice cannot be separated from them. What are the three elements? Great compassion, great wisdom and great strength.
