The wisdom of giving up

Being willing and giving requires great wisdom to realize the true meaning.

Things in this world do not have fixed owners, nor do they have eternal owners. Things have their own destiny between choices and trade-offs. It's yours, it's yours after all, you can't run away no matter what; if it's not yours, there's no point in trying to steal it.

There is an allusion: a man who was greedy for money carried a sack of gold across the river. When the boat capsized due to bad waves, the boatman advised him to throw away the gold, but he was reluctant to part with it, but ultimately gave up his life. When you are in a desperate situation, you can't save anyone except yourself. Presumably, this rich man must be a miser-like rich man who doesn't know how to give up.

Things are both mutually reinforcing and mutually reinforcing. When people think of "getting", they probably don't get it. But when ordinary people don't want to "give up", they may have already given up a lot. There are many people in history who are greedy for money, greed for power, and greed for sex. On ordinary days, they seem to have gained a lot, but in the end they get nothing. They don’t want to give it up, but in the end they even give up their freedom and life. "Letting go", "giving up", only with "giving up" can there be "getting", because there is no "getting" because of not "giving up". This principle seems simple, but many times we just don’t understand it.

Being willing is a philosophy of life. Equanimity is a skill, an attitude, and a state of mind. To give up, to give up, to give up first and then to gain; to give up first, to gain after, that is to say, "giving up" and "gaining" although they have opposite meanings, are two sides of the same thing. Giving up and getting are equal. You give up first, and then you can get. One can only receive by giving, no matter what kind of giving. This is the true meaning of "willingness". Only by "giving up" can we "gain". Of course, this kind of "gain" refers more to the enrichment of the spirit and the sublimation of the realm. There is a mystery hidden in the reluctance, and the artistic conception is very deep. You can only rely on yourself to ponder and understand it.
