-"Awakening Life Wisdom" Lecture 4
202 1 10 10 at 2: 00 pm on October 30th, still in Xinqiao. Everyone started the fourth lecture of Awakening Life Wisdom in the atmosphere of talking about the recent epidemic. The main content of this lecture is how to transcend fear.
We all have fears, but in different forms. Some are worry, anxiety, fear, fear, etc. Although there are some differences, they all rise from the inner nature of human beings, become an idea and become the source of desires, thoughts and wishes in our minds. So, how can we surpass it? I feel that ordinary people can't do it, but we can also try to get ourselves into a certain realm and learn to say "yes" to life.
First, the space-time conditions connecting high dimensions.
We live in three-dimensional space and eternal time. Beyond yourself, the most meaningful thing is to live in the present. How can we live in the present? The discussion on this issue is our exploration of the meaning of life. Although every moment of our life constitutes our own stream in the river of time, the past and the future are untouchable, so we need to adjust our state, let ourselves really live in the present, feel every subtle node, and try to accept every heartfelt feeling without judging, labeling or defining. At some key nodes, our feelings are very wise, so sometimes we need to follow our feelings. Here, Teacher Duan gave us three available tools. First, "I can't stop", the so-called "thinking of hell for heaven" means that I don't want to have evil thoughts, but I want to raise good thoughts from my heart. In this way, the life of ants is also a team you care for. Second, Vipassana, Vipassana is actually observing our own behaviors and thoughts, because what we see and hear are our external and internal projections. It is in this sense that we should learn to keep good thoughts, positive, positive and good thoughts in our own consciousness and subconscious, and discover beauty with a kind heart. In this way, everything we see is beautiful, and our hearts will naturally cultivate our own good thoughts. Then, all ideas are good ideas. Third, borrow phase. "phase" is everything we see and hear, and the so-called borrowing phase is to look at the inside with the help of our external. The thoughts we form in our own consciousness are all cognition. We sometimes don't know whether these cognitions are reasonable or regular. How can I know that I need to improve? The recognition of one's own cognition lies in becoming a lifelong learner, constantly improving one's thinking mode and thinking dimension, entering a certain breadth and depth of understanding of things, and constantly expanding the boundary of one's cognitive world, the essence of which is to expand one's ability boundary.
Second, transcend the fear of death.
People are born to die, so the fear of death is born. It seems that we can't transcend the fear of death. Therefore, the theme of cherishing life has become the theme of life.
In the course, the teacher specially recommended the Record of Life and Death in Tibet, which tells the story of near-death experience. Its essence is that death can bring life back to life itself. Here comes a new question. Since death is the end and beginning of life, why should we be born? Let life be complete and feel the sense of self-sufficiency brought by life itself. In fact, it is to experience the story of every time node and space node in the course of life, so that the story itself becomes a legend and the meaning of life.
Third, the loss of inner wisdom.
In our life experience, the first 30 years were given by our parents, and the rest were given by ourselves. In this case, how to surpass yourself in your own life? Learning is a shortcut, because the lack we feel inside is our own torture of the soul. Even shopping, the principle is the same. Since I can find my inner defects in the depths of my soul, I want to fill them with everything outside. However, psychology tells us that since the defects found in the depths of the soul are the basis of our inner desires, longings and desires, if we can learn to interpret and provide answers from the heart and solve problems from the heart, maybe we can draw energy from our inner wisdom more effectively and have the power to resolve everything we face. Therefore, yoga, meditation and other ways can make us enjoy ourselves better and listen to our inner voice.
Fourth, it vibrates with the energy of love.
Born as a man, he has been surrounded by love. However, our own experience of love is quite different. Even the same person will have different experiences at different time nodes. So, what can we do to achieve a balance?
Children's study, adults' work and different lifestyles are all our comfortable states. However, because our inner desires for love are different, we will also have different "faces" in front of ourselves. For example, some people need positive language, some people need a small gift from their lover, and some people are intoxicated by a friend's pat on the shoulder. Sometimes, we can't get what we need because we need it badly. A peaceful mind may provide a good ecological environment for the natural presentation of what you want. Probably, this is also the power of "secret". Rhonda byrne told people all over the world this secret, but if we don't look inside, this secret will rarely be discovered. And the land that this secret needs most is "love", and only love can give the answer.
Love cannot be seen or touched, but we can feel it. But how can we be sure of the love we need? I recommend you to read Dr. Chapman's book Five Voices of Love. Through observation, we can find the voice of our love, and we can also find the voice of the people around us, and accurately push the language needed by the communication object, so that our love can be fully expressed and accepted by the other party, thus making the river of love smooth. At present, many problems in parent-child relationship, husband-wife relationship, superior-subordinate relationship and friend relationship have been bothering us. It's not that we don't have love, nor that we don't have the ability to love, but that we need to identify the language of love that others need, so as to create good communication, let love show naturally, and let love produce and bear fruit naturally.
From the perspective of the tempering of the soul in the course of life, we can try to train ourselves to have a pattern of "great love", constantly paying, paying without asking for return, and paying without asking for return, just like the sun, emitting dazzling light. We can also let ourselves light up our lives with "great love", and this lamp will also light up other people's lives. Just like Zhou Enlai said, "study for the rise of China", Lu Xun abandoned medicine and followed literature, Chen Duxiu guided the banner of social revolution with thoughts, and Li Dazhao practiced the most basic people's democracy with Marxist theory and China social reality.
Five, let the soul live in eternal light.
We have been talking about the cultivation of body and mind, which is to make body and mind harmonious in our body. When Louise Hay faced the most desperate situation in her life, she tried to integrate her body and mind and gradually got rid of the pain caused by cancer and divorce. When Hellinger experienced the unity of body and mind from a missionary, he used "family system arrangement" as a means to help many people see the pain itself and be cured by it.
So, how can we make the soul eternal? Teacher Duan gave three paths. First, improve your spiritual freedom. Although we all long for freedom, freedom of thought seems elusive. Our physical freedom has long been legally obtained because of the founding of New China, but why can't we feel it ourselves? This is the concept of setting limits for yourself and making yourself feel. For example, if I don't know this question, I may stop here; If we change the dimension of thinking, there are at least three solutions to each problem, can we see that we have freedom of choice, so that we can have some freedom in some events? Second, the infinite inclusive space that integrates everything. People's hearts are infinitely tolerant. We can cultivate our understanding of the laws of things to look at our hearts and make our pattern bigger and bigger. Although some people say that "sometimes the pattern is inflated by grievances", can another meaning be understood as: everything we have experienced in life is to provide us with a practice Dojo. Only by accepting and containing can we make our life complete and contain everything in the world. Third, the current state of mind and body. People's thoughts correspond to rational thinking, and ideas are sometimes associated with the subconscious. Only by combining rational thinking with perceptual thinking and combining with one's own body and mind can one raise one's feelings from the heart. This is the feeling of happiness and the pursuit of the meaning of being born as a human being. Therefore, if we keep the harmony between mind and matter and truly live in the present, then all our lives will show our own state of pursuing life.
"The meaning of life depends on our present state. All cultivation is to cultivate the present, and the present heart can be connected with high-dimensional energy. " Teacher Duan emphasized the importance of repairing the present.
Beyond fear, beyond life, just let yourself live well at all times.
