Wisdom arises from the heart, and wisdom is our wealth; contentment arises from the heart, and contentment is our wealth; shame arises from the heart, and shame is our wealth; meditation arises from the mind, and meditation is our wealth. Looking for wealth outside the heart is a big mistake. Real wealth should be a continuous source of energy within the heart. There is a Zen poem that is well written: the great truth does not come from outside the heart, but comes from the world of idle clouds.

3. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: When you no longer make any demands on others, what you gain is inner freedom, and when you start to pay for others, you will gain The happiness of life. ——Excerpted from Master Dazhao's new work----"It's not difficult to take a step back"

Therefore, no matter what the situation, we must know how to be humble, tolerant, and kind to others.

5. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: If there are things you can't stand, it means your wisdom is not enough; if there are people you look down on, it means your compassion is not enough. There is no one who is looked down upon by a compassionate person; there is no one who is looked down upon by a person with wisdom. Troubles all come from self-righteousness, and confusion comes from self-knowledge. Everything is the product of the combination of causes and conditions. Different appearances result from different causes and conditions. If we can't stand it and can't figure it out, it shows that there are still obstacles in our hearts

6. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--"Thorough is the only way to achieve success": If you want to move forward, move forward at full speed and completely eliminate all obstacles. Leave it behind, completely transcend the five aggregates and six objects, until there is no mind outside the realm, and you will achieve great success! If you want to retreat, retreat at full speed, and completely give up all the external world and all ties outside the mind, until there is no realm outside the mind, and there is no way to achieve it, which is the supreme Bodhi.

7. Recite precepts. "Precepts" are manifested as "rules" in daily life. Without rules, there is no rule. Lay people must abide by the norms and rules at all levels, such as family and society, and cannot "act deviantly"; Mindfulness of heaven means always remembering the merits and virtues of all heavens, avoiding the consciousness of desire, anger, and harm, and settling down with clear understanding and right mindfulness.

8. Anfu Temple 04 An Fulisheng--: "Change without change": What changes is the law of impermanence, birth and death, and what does not change is the principle of non-life. Finding the unchanging thing in the changes is the sincerity. When the things remain unchanged, you can see the freedom of the changes of all things. That is the wonderful use of the Buddha-nature!

9. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: "The sun and the moon create the heart at the moment": The days pass in black and white, the years pass by the round and missing, and life is prosperous and withered. Continuing everywhere, thoughts arise and die after a pause...! If you ask about the vicissitudes of the world? Only move forward in the virtual and the real. What is love? Isn’t it just that you are persistent in a trance? If you ask me, what do I want? Yunshan is full of important tasks. May I ask about Buddhist practice? The flowing water in front of the door is full of green mountains!

10. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: The soft voice makes people happy; the voice of justice makes people breathless; the voice of compassion makes people unforgettable; the voice of praise makes people Like a spring breeze.

12. Anfu Temple 04 Anfusheng--: When a tree no longer shows off its lush leaves and branches, but takes root deeply in the soil, it truly has depth.

The growth of trees requires depth and height, and the growth of people also requires depth and height! When a person no longer shows off but shines, his life will become truly rich.

13. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: People are often influenced by the outside world and their own hearts, and they often lose their temper, but it is very painful for them to do so. What should they do? First, when we realize our mistakes and do not want to continue this wrong thought, it means that our practice has progressed and the power of mindfulness has arisen. I may have made mistakes in the past without feeling that I was wrong. Second, if you know you are wrong, but the power of habit cannot reverse it for a while, this is because you have insufficient concentration and insufficient power of righteous thoughts. On the one hand, you can strengthen the power of your mindfulness by meditating in accordance with the law; on the other hand, you can sincerely take refuge in the Three Jewels and recite the name of Buddha and Bodhisattva sincerely with a repentant heart. In "Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's Universal Door", Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva said: If there are many greedy living beings, if they recite my name sincerely, they will be freed from greed; if there are many angry living beings, if they recite my name sincerely, they will be freed from anger... Yes Saying the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva is a regular lesson. Third, through studying the teachings, understand that all dharmas are caused by causes and conditions, open up wisdom through clear principles, and tame worries

14. Anfu Temple 04 Anfu Sheng-: Zen Enlightenment 1. The highest state of sensibility It is compassion, and the highest state of rationality is wisdom.

Happiness is altruism; what is happiness? Happiness is compassion; what is dignity? Nobility is respect; what is wealth? Wealth is the heart of giving; what is liberation? Liberation is the heart of forgiveness.

15. Anfu Temple 04 An Fulisheng--: The most painful time may be the most open time; the most vulnerable time may also be the strongest time. Tell yourself: “Don’t run away from pain, use it to your advantage and become more compassionate and altruistic.” After all, pain teaches us compassion. If you have ever suffered, you know what it feels like for others to suffer. And if you are helping others, suffering can help you understand and develop compassion, which can help you help others.

16. Anfu Temple 04 Anfusheng--: "Stealing the heart even if you die": If you don't die if you steal the heart, you will have a share in the suffering. Take care of things with peace of mind and seize the day. All delusions are nothing but confusion. Go straight ahead without getting caught in the dust.

17. Anfu Temple 04 Anfu Sheng--: A young man went to the temple and asked the Zen Master: "I release animals, print scriptures, and participate in Dharma meetings, but why is my life still not going well?" The Zen Master took it out of his pocket. One hundred yuan was handed to the young man, "Please use this one hundred yuan to help me complete the construction of the Zen Yuan." The young man asked in surprise: "How can this one hundred yuan be enough to build the Zen Yuan?" The Zen master said, "Then you How can a few times of determination eliminate your sinful karma?" The young man smiled knowingly, suddenly enlightened!

18. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: The greatest sorrow in life is not being able to see oneself clearly, being self-centered, being too persistent, and being lost in self-prejudice. If you don't have the mentality of letting things go and ask for everything to be done as you wish, then no environment will be able to satisfy you. Only by rectifying your body and mind, using wisdom to resolve obstacles in your heart, and getting rid of attachments, prejudices, and delusions, will all your troubles disappear.

19. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: Happiness is not about great sorrow or great joy, it does not need to be grand, it is the feeling of one's own heart.

When we let go of our prejudices and narrow-mindedness and treat people and things with inner peace, we will find that everyone’s blessings are warm, everyone’s greetings are warm, everyone’s handshakes are sincere, and everyone’s smiles are full of kindness. In fact, life is not bitter, only when the mind is entangled is it; the roads are all there, so don’t worry about whether they are flat or not. It's a road, everything is fine; walking on the road is fine.

20. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--"Blooming": Only by deeply believing in cause and effect can we live with inner balance and the world be full of vitality. Only when you put down the things in your hands can you catch the new world with your free hands, and life will be full of fun. Only by keeping your body and mind ethereal can you keep updating your status and make your life bloom into beautiful flowers!

21. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: "There are no benefits to learning Buddhism": Someone asked me what are the benefits of learning Buddhism? I told him: There is no benefit to studying Buddhism. And asked why we should learn? Answer: There is no harm in studying Buddhism! All the merits and wisdom of learning Buddhism are inherent in life and do not come from scratch, so they are not considered a benefit. But for those who don’t learn, ignorance and troubles cover their original nature, causing all kinds of harm. Learning Buddhism only uncovers the harm and restores the original appearance, that’s all!

22. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: "If you want to... you have to" If you want to be relaxed, you have to put down the burden on your shoulders; if you want to be free, you have to throw away the physical and mental constraints If you want to be liberated, you have to give up the worldly worries; if you want to become a Buddha, you have to stir up the reality of life. If you want to move forward, you have to pick up your hind legs and walk forward!

23. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: Putting yourself down and treating others with consideration is to maintain a humble and open mind, rather than an external form. Because of ego and arrogance, people often unconsciously oppose others, which leads to many conflicts and unsolved problems. Only when you let go of the oppositional mentality can you deal with things more wisely, and the road will become wider and wider.

24. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: "The Call of Beauty": There are many beautiful things in the world, and the existence of each thing also reveals or implies a beauty, and continues to Develop along a beautiful path. Our life is also a beautiful thing. Both what is shown and what is not yet shown can be even better. The meaning of life is that it is always calling us to be better!

25. Everything is unattainable, so let go of everything, and your ability to be clear and silent will be revealed right now. Troubles, pain, negative karma and delusions are all guest dust pollution. Just like guests, they will leave when they come, unless you insist on keeping them. Awareness is the essence of our heart and is the master. It will never betray us. We go to heaven and hell, and never leave us in life and death. The current moment is already very good, no matter how thick the earth is and how high the sky is? !

26. I have never sought others but not myself, but I now know that I seek myself rather than others. Where will you be when you ask for yourself now? Instead, you will have no need to ask others for advice.

27. Precepts are the foundation, concentration is the method, and wisdom is the goal. Wu Yan said, do not be stained by the laws of the world, stay away from greed, examine your thoughts, take care of them repeatedly, and willingly no longer establish a self to satisfy the needs of your desires.

28. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: In life, whether you are proud or struggling; whether you are going smoothly or running into obstacles everywhere, these are all flashing by like pictures on the screen. When we are no longer obsessed with the pictures on the screen, we will understand that every flower and every grass is full of Dharmakaya, and every gesture is prajna.

29. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: Make good use of your heart: As long as you live with your heart, your thoughts will return to your true heart, everything will increase your wisdom, and you can train your concentration at all times, and you will be happy everywhere Can be practiced to achieve enlightenment.

30. Anfuji 04 Anfusheng--: Narrow-minded people are best at hearing malice in other people's words. Broad-minded people are best at hearing kindness in other people's words. If you regard the people around you as grass and you are surrounded by grass, then you are a straw bag! You regard the people around you as treasures, you are surrounded by treasures, you are a cornucopia of treasures.
