1. Whether you are tired or not depends on your mentality. If the room of the soul is not cleaned, it will be filled with dust. A dusty heart will become gray and confused. We go through many things every day, happy and unhappy, all settled in our hearts. Some painful emotions and unpleasant memories, if filled in the heart, will make people depressed. Therefore, sweeping the floor and removing dust can brighten a gloomy heart; only by sorting things out can we bid farewell to turmoil.
2. Don’t take other people’s kindness as weakness, it is a kind of generosity; don’t take other people’s tolerance as cowardice, it is a kind of compassion. Just because a good-tempered person doesn't get angry easily doesn't mean he won't get angry; a cool-tempered person just pretends to be confused, but that doesn't mean he has no bottom line. Feelings cannot be perfunctory; human hearts cannot be played with; fate cannot be squandered. Only by treating love as love can we have true feelings; only by loving each other as equals can we have true hearts.
3. The human heart is like a container. The more happiness it contains, the fewer worries will naturally occur; the more simplicity it contains, the less entanglements will naturally occur; the more satisfaction it contains, the less pain will naturally occur; The more you understand, the fewer conflicts you will have; the more you pretend to be tolerant, the less hatred you will have. The mind determines the capacity, and the realm determines the level. Living is a kind of practice, and practice is cultivating the mind. If you cultivate a normal heart, you will be happy all the time; if you cultivate a satisfied heart, you will be happy everywhere.
4. People live not by their bodies, but by their hearts. Sometimes, you will be happier if you change your mood. The heart is like a field. You have to sow seeds by yourself. If you sow good causes, you will get good results; if you sow evil causes, you will get bad results. If you have a tolerant heart, a kind heart, and a heart full of vitality, you will sow the seeds of happiness and you will reap a happy heart.
5. In the big stage of life, no matter who you are, it cannot always be a smooth road with flowers. There will always be thorns and bumps. When we are in good times, we must be prepared for danger in times of peace, so that the road will be long. When we are in adversity, we can only get out of it by holding on to hope. No matter what, we are all the protagonists in the movie of our lives. The arrangement of fate has become an aid to our cultivation. Have kind thoughts, persist in faith, carry forward positive energy, be grateful to the people around you, and gain purity and joy.
6. You should have some respect in life so that you will not do whatever you want. Respect is not superficial worship but sincere honesty; fear is not inner cowardice but shock to the soul. The sage is afraid, but he has no worries. Only by knowing reverence can we protect our inner conscience. Only if he learns to be afraid will he not be afraid; if he is not afraid, his whole life will be terrible. Only those who have awe in their hearts will know how to respect, be measured and keep the bottom line.
7. Happiness is a state of mind. If you are calm inside, you will never be happy. In fact, life is not a lack of beauty, but a lack of eyes for discovery. Happiness does not come from outside. As long as you adjust your mentality and lifestyle, you don't have to look for it everywhere. Happiness is all around you. Every happiness comes from your own heart and is created by your heart.
8. Life is calm because of tranquility, and elegant because of calmness. Be calm in your heart and be at ease with the world. The clouds are light and leisurely, and the water is light to nourish all things. Things in the world are full of chaos, right and wrong, gains and losses, and perfection is hard to come by. If you want everything to go your way, you will get stuck in the quagmire of carelessness and cannot extricate yourself. If you only seek to have a clear conscience in everything, and do not care about gains and losses, honor or disgrace, you will naturally be at ease. In life, mentality is more important than anything else.
9. Determining things is a positive attitude towards life, letting nature take its course is an optimistic way of survival, things will come naturally is a superb wisdom in worldly affairs, and indifference and tranquility are a detached attitude towards life. When there is nothing to do, be clear; when there is something to do, be decisive; when you are proud, be indifferent! If your heart is young, you will never grow old. No matter how time passes, keep the warmth of spring in your heart. In fact, the happiness we want is always there.
10. Some gains may not last long; some losses may not be available again. The important thing is: let the heart learn to dance in the sunshine; let the soul learn to smile in pain. Move forward, feel free and unrestrained, and gain calmness. Life is not about getting, but about letting go. Put down a seed and harvest a big tree; let go of a worry and harvest a surprise; let go of a prejudice and harvest a kind of happiness; let go of a persistence and harvest a kind of freedom.
11. There are only two actions in life - picking up and putting down. Drinking tea is as simple as picking it up and putting it down. And life, everything that seems complicated, is actually so simple? Why bother with some things? Why do some people bother with it? Many times, if you look down on it and take it lightly, things in the world can be like drinking tea, just picking it up and putting it down.
12. The last thing you can do is take advantage of yourself. Those who are cheap will be the only ones in the world to fight over. If I take it by myself, resentment will be poured out on me. If I lose my advantage, all the resentment will disappear. Therefore, if you lose advantages throughout your life, you will gain advantages throughout your life! ——Master Hongyi
13. There are no right or wrong answers to many things in the world, so there is no need to take everything seriously or compete with others. Be more open-minded, be sloppy when you should be sloppy, and be lenient when you have to be merciful. Don't make unresolved grudges just for the sake of temporary pleasure; don't add too many worries just for the temporary anger of gambling; don't lose your whole mood just for the sake of winning or losing temporarily. In fact, "obeying" is not that difficult. In fact, "not fighting" is a kind of sobriety. In fact, "accommodating" is a positive attitude.
14. If you owe someone, you will have to pay it back sooner or later, so pay it back early. If you are unable to pay it back, then let your grateful heart be on the way; those who harm others will eventually be repaid, and if they are not repaid at this time, that is The arrow of retribution is on its way. Seeing this, your heart should be relieved, just like some people are worried when they look at the rain, some are happy because of the rain, and some are watching the rain indifferently. In life, don't stay away from your closest relatives and friends because of small disputes, and don't forget the great kindness of others because of small resentments. Being grateful in your heart is actually honoring yourself.
15. If a person's mind is pure and untainted, even if he is in a difficult state, he will not have many worries; if a person's mind is uneasy and disturbed, even if he is meditating every day in the mountains and forests, he will not have many worries. The mind is also like being in a busy city, with no peace of mind. Therefore, the "Vimalakīrti Sutra" says: "If a Bodhisattva wants to obtain the Pure Land, he should purify his mind and follow his purification, then the Buddha Land will be pure." The real Pure Land is not elsewhere, nor is it far away, it is just a dry land. A clean heart.
16. Help as many people as possible, because you never know how many people you will need in the future. Moreover, the results of your good deeds will be more wonderful than you imagine. The truth, kindness and beauty of human nature shine to a greater extent, so you must believe in the power of beauty. Even if there is no reward, when you help others, you also get the opportunity to sublimate your heart, which is actually the greatest compensation.
17. Appearances come from the heart, and situations are created by the heart. As we travel through the years, everyone has their own story. Only when you are indifferent will your mood be beautiful, and when you are open-minded will your mood be bright. If you didn't care so much and wanted so much, life would be much simpler. When you can't bear it, accept the arrangements of reality, settle the hardship, and let yourself go. How cruel life is, how strong you should be.
18. Sometimes people’s eyes, when looking at the world, all things, and others, cannot see themselves; they can see the faults of others, but not their own; they can see the greed of others. , but cannot see one's own stinginess; can see the ignorance of others, but cannot see one's own ignorance; can see the short-sightedness of others, but cannot see one's own narrow-mindedness. In life, you need to reflect more and ask yourself more, so that you can know yourself and happiness will come unexpectedly.
19. People live in a mood. Happiness needs to be striven for by oneself, and happiness needs to be achieved by oneself. To live, you must be kind to yourself, smile at life, and live in the moment with a smile with an excited mood, a leisurely mood, a comfortable mood, and a humorous mood.
It is easier to have a good mood if you have a good attitude. When you are in a good mood, everything is really good!
20. Everything around us or that we encounter is the organic composition of who we are, so we should not treat or artificially separate them with an isolation or rejection mentality and perspective, let alone regard them as opponents or even It is the enemy. This is integrating resources or gathering energy. It is also the fundamental shining point of human nature!
