Reflections on Zhu Ziqing's On Sincerity
Zhu ziqing's thoughts after reading.

I started reading this famous essay by Mr. Zhu Ziqing more than ten years ago and have read it many times so far. Every time I read it, I feel something in my heart, but after careful tasting, no fa knows what it tastes like. After many years, I have tasted the hardships of the world and the changes of life in my life, and I have gradually seen the society and life. After all this, some words in "Hurry" occasionally appear in my mind in my spare time, but they contain profound philosophy in the plain. Shure seems to have realized something, and gradually realized that this beautifully written essay has profound implications in a touch of sadness. So I can't help but want to write something. If someone happens to see what they can get, they will be very happy.

If someone asks: What is life? Many people will say fa, but there are different opinions and they are at a loss. However, in my heart, I can't get rid of this question all the time, just like "hurry" said: "I came to this world naked, and I will go back naked in the blink of an eye." But it can't be flat. Why do you have to go for nothing this time? "Yes, we come in a daze, go in a daze. In the course of life, it is like a pipe, and we get nothing. Li Bai said in "Preface to the Peach and Plum Garden of the Spring Banquet": "The rich in heaven and earth are the inverse of everything. Time flies, and a hundred generations have passed. And floating like a dream, for joy geometry? ".If life is a journey, the starting point of this station is life, and the end point of this station is death. No dead person will let the living know the experience after death, but death is something we must face, just like we are alive, but why are we afraid of death? I think it is because of our ignorance of life. In "A Chinese Odyssey", the Monkey King said: "Life is alive and happy, why bother to kill yourself? ".We always have to grasp something to make ourselves feel the existence of life. When we were alive, we fought endlessly for fame and fortune, and our desires were terrible. We always see what we don't have, but never what we have. We always pursue progress, but we don't know how to rest. Therefore, Lao Tzu said, "Zhi Zhi is not humiliated and content with Changle". Confucius said: "If you talk big, you will know and never retreat; If you know existence, you don't know death; If you know, you won't know the loss. "... is it just a saint? Is he a saint who knows how to advance and retreat without losing his righteousness ”。 Yes, people's desires are endless, but the environmental resources on which human beings depend are limited. If you know, you won't retreat, if you know life, you won't die, if you know it, you won't lose it, and sooner or later you will suffer consequences. Just like we came naked and went naked, what did we leave for future generations? What does it leave for all beings in the world? What did it leave for the world that raised us? A person's wealth, accumulated wealth, depends on the support of thousands of poor people in Qian Qian; The prosperity of a developed country depends on the support of many underdeveloped countries; Du Fu said: The wine in Zhumen stinks, and the road has frozen bones. We came naked and went naked. Can you have a clear conscience when you die? If you can feel guilty, you will approach.

"Why do you have to go for nothing this time?" Is it pessimistic? Maybe I used to think so, but now it seems that this sentence is very calm. The reason why we should be human is: why are people human? We should understand: what are we living for? Some people say: the past is over, such as light smoke, such as mist, leaving no trace; The future has not come yet, too slim; Only now is the most authentic and reliable. I think this concept is very good! However, after careful scrutiny, the most certain thing is now so unpredictable. When you want to catch it, it passes in an instant and it is difficult to catch it. Confucius said: "The deceased is like a husband, staying up all night." Yes, when I think about the present, it immediately passed and suddenly died; But the future days will soon become the past in the shadow of the present. As the Diamond Sutra said: "The heart can't be obtained in the past, but it can't be obtained now, because it can't be obtained in the future." The past, the present and the future cannot be obtained, and the cycle goes on and on. So Wang Xizhi said, "Look at the present in the future, or look at the past today." We look at the people of the past today as our descendants look at us, so we have made progress? Or have you regressed? Where are we going? Confucius said, "What does the world think? The world's goals are the same but the paths are different, consistent and worrying. What do you think of the world? " .

Mr. Zhu Ziqing lamented that our days have flown by. Buddha said: our life is to miss life and death, faster than an arrow. What can I do if I sigh? "Only wandering, only in a hurry; After more than 8,000 days of haste, what is left except wandering? " Yes, have you left any traces? Even if you have endless wealth and great prestige, what can you take away? You will eventually walk naked, leaving no trace. If, in the endless pursuit of your life, at the end of your life, you suddenly find that you have been a slave to desire all your life, but you don't know why you want to leave this time? How pathetic this is! Therefore, when you have life, you should see those beings who also have life. Our lives are all the same, and they are all nurtured by heaven and earth. When you are alone, you should not only see those who are comfortable and rich, but also see the poverty and misery of many people. People, what am I? Therefore, from here, you can appreciate the painstaking efforts of ancient sages to save the world. The Buddha taught us: "All evils should be avoided, all good should be pursued, and self-purification is Buddhism"; Confucius taught us: "If you are poor, you will be immune to it, and if you are rich, you will help the world"; "Good without accumulation is not enough to be famous, and evil without accumulation is not enough to destroy the body"; "There must be Qing Yu in a good house, and there must be many disasters in a bad house"; Liu Bei said: "Don't do it for small, don't do it for small"; Yes, your personal strength is limited, but everyone's strength is unlimited. Most people in society avoid evil and do good, and our society is heaven. On the contrary, it is hell. Our happiness comes from the heart; A healthy body, a harmonious family, contentment and gratitude are the greatest happiness in life. If you lose these, even if you have endless wealth, where is your happiness?
