There is a famous saying in Caigen Tan: If you don't stand tall, how can you stand tall? It's like shaking clothes in the dust and standing in the mud. How can you be happy if you don't take a step back, such as a moth putting out a fire and a sheep touching a fan? Life can't be exquisite if it can't stand on a higher level, just like shaking clothes in the dust and washing feet in the mud. How can you live a happy life if you don't know how to advance and retreat, like a moth to a fire and a ram to a hedge?

The so-called "one step ahead" does not mean to climb to a high position in officialdom, nor does it mean to be spiritually lofty, but to have one's own beliefs, so as to open one's eyes beyond the mundane, so as to avoid being bound by mundane trifles and entangled in worldly right and wrong, so as to better live in the world. And "doing things low" is to admit that you are the "servant" of the creator and be humble and low-key everywhere.

Biography of Abu Hulle: Mu Sheng said, "Paradise competes with fire, and fire says,' Those who enter me are tyrannical and arrogant. "Heaven said,' People who come to me are weak and poor.' The Lord said to the fire, you symbolize my severity, and I will punish my servant with you. Say to heaven,' You symbolize my kindness, and I will use you to pity my servants who want to be pitied, and you will all be enriched.' "

For life, whether poor or rich; Neither spring breeze nor repeated setbacks can prove the good or bad ending. When we come to a certain stage of life, looking back, we find that no matter what we have experienced, those experiences are full of reminders and inspirations, but we ignore them. The Lord said, "Those who believe and do good deeds and show humility to the Lord are the residents of Paradise, and they will live in it forever." 1 1:23)
