"Use thunderbolt means to show the heart of a Bodhisattva" is an ancient Chinese saying, which is used to warn people that in dealing with the world, one must be strong and soft at the same time to achieve miraculous results.
Literally, thunderbolt means refers to things like iron fist, iron-blooded policy, high-pressure policy, dictatorship; Bodhisattva heart certainly refers to kindness, kindness and tolerance. These seem to be opposite things, but they can coexist. In terms of family education, people often say "give good intentions but not good faces", which is the Bodhisattva's heart + thunderbolt methods; in terms of governing the country, severely punishing those who break laws and discipline to prevent people from committing crimes is also using thunderbolt methods to show the Bodhisattva Hearty.
As far as personal dealings are concerned, when you have never shown the power of thunder, all your gentleness and kindness will be regarded as weak and bullyable by others. Naturally, some people will push their noses and faces to take advantage of them. I want to ride on your head and shit.
As far as an organizational unit is concerned, if you don’t have a thunderbolt, no one will take your unit seriously. The public security organs and the law are all powerful, and no matter how high your status is in the books of the Trade Union, CPPCC and National People’s Congress, it is useless. It's a nursing home. Without units whose law enforcement powers are ineffective, all your standardized constructions will be taken for granted and not worth mentioning. However, as long as those powerful units give the masses a smile, the masses will be flattered and burst into tears of gratitude.
Buddhism believes that as long as you are full of compassion and do not have hatred, majesty is virtue, great majesty is great virtue, restraining evil and overcoming evil is guiding good deeds, and thunderbolt means are the expression of Bodhisattva's heart.
Thunderbolt means are not a dispensable accessory for a Bodhisattva. Thunderbolt means are a prerequisite for a Bodhisattva to be a Bodhisattva. Without thunderbolt means, there would be no Bodhisattva’s heart. Without thunderbolt means, a Bodhisattva would be like a Bodhisattva. What is heart-warming is the kindness of a woman, and Ah Q’s self-comforting spiritual victory method.
"How to show the heart of a Bodhisattva by means of thunder?" comes from a birthday couplet written by Hu Linyi for Zeng Guofan.
Hu Linyi once said an enlightening saying when he was trying to control chaos: "Use thunderbolt means to show the heart of a Bodhisattva." What is "thunderbolt means"? A sharp sword cuts through the mess and eradicates all evil. In this regard, he was cruel and ruthless, just like Zeng Guofan, who was known as "the one who had his head shaved". It goes: "The most harmful thing must be done, and chaos will arise in the world. We have no good way to bring peace and order, so we can only eliminate violence."
Also known as: "Governing people in chaos is like managing chaos, and those who are in chaos will inevitably "Beheading cannot be tolerated." It can be seen that Hu Linyi believes that killing is an indispensable method to deal with troubled times, and there is nothing wrong with it as long as you have a benevolent heart. "The government of killing people does not have the heart to kill people, but it ends up killing people in the way of life." What is "killing people in the way of life"? To put it bluntly, we must "stop killing with killing." We must not be merciful to those thugs who arbitrarily deprive others of their lives. Only by killing the killers and eradicating violence can justice be demonstrated and society return to stability. This is exactly what the saying goes: “Use thunderbolt means to show the bodhisattva’s heart.
