For all living beings, Buddhism has put forward many "overviews" that summarize human nature, such as "the four elements are empty", "five poisons", "six desires", "seven emotions" and "eight sufferings", which combine the physiological needs and psychological needs of human nature All aspects are summed up in detail, and it is worthy of being the largest church in the world today.

Today, I will talk to you about the "five poisons", namely greed, anger, ignorance, pride, and doubt.

1. Greed

Greed is desire. It is the inherent instinct and nature of all living things, and it is understandable. A person without desires is almost impossible to survive. It is precisely because of desires that human beings can continue to move forward and promote the rapid development of society, but they must master the appropriate measures. , is particularly important, because if it goes too far, it becomes "greed". Greed includes physical and material satisfaction. A person's destruction begins with the change of his thoughts and concepts. A person can become a Buddha with a single thought, or a demon with a single thought. There is a famous saying: When thoughts change, attitudes change; when attitudes change, behavior changes; when behavior changes, results change; when results change, life changes. In short, thoughts change results, and consciousness determines life. Control your desires and don't step into the abyss of greed and desire and be unable to extricate yourself.

2. Anger

Anger is hatred. That is, when a person encounters difficulties, setbacks, injustice, and pain, he only knows how to give up on himself, feel sorry for himself, or even get angry, and his anger attacks his heart. He cannot endure it, and lacks the determination and courage to face difficulties. When such people are faced with difficulties, what they think of is not how to take the initiative to work hard, overcome problems, and turn danger into safety, but to respond passively. Some people even deal with it in the opposite direction and make things worse. On the road to correctly resolving conflicts Quite the opposite.

3. Crazy

Crazy is ignorance. It refers to IQ. The difference in IQ among most people in the world is not very big, unless there are some congenital IQ problems. I think this "madness" can also be extended to what Buddhists often say about whether they have "wisdom roots". Some people have high IQ and EQ and can understand everything by heart. They have "wisdom roots". The fate of such people is in their own hands. There are also some people who, no matter how others persuade or explain, always insist on concepts or industries that they think are right, thus producing bad results. These people have "blunt roots" and can only rely on luck; and There is a part between the two, called "Fangen". He is neither arrogant nor proactive, and uses his own way to resolve every accident.

4. Slowness

Slowness is arrogance. Pride and prejudice are two common thoughts or opinions that people have. Arrogance is also an inherent characteristic of people, but when encountering something alone, how to face it is extremely critical.

5. Suspicion

Suspicion is suspicion. "You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others." It also refers to a kind of suspicion. There is nothing wrong with suspicion itself. Especially in today's world, with advanced technology and overflow of information, suspicion often turns into A correct way to deal with problems, but it cannot always stay at the level of "doubt", but must "seek verification and truth" to find a reasonable solution to the final problem.

I am a person who suffers from the "five poisons" in my body. I have to continue to work hard on the path of spiritual cultivation.
