For friends who are making rapid progress, I always like to ask them what books they are reading recently. Yizi mentioned "The Tibetan Book of Life and Death" and "Everything is the Best Arrangement" by Gyatso Living Buddha.
She mentioned it again in my student group review the day before yesterday, so I started searching for reading or listening on WeChat Reading, and I was immediately fascinated. I regret meeting you so late. I said to myself, I Read this book three times.
There will also be other friends who recommend various books, but some of them just can’t be read. I might just leave them there after reading half of them. It’s not that the book itself is not good, but that I don’t have a good relationship with that book. arrive. There are thousands of good books in the world, and we should look for books that are related to us.
The words of Gyatso Living Buddha give people a sense of spiritual awakening and inner strength. Get changes through blessings and enlightenment on life, and make yourself better. All the joys and sorrows in the world are just one step away. Only by facing your heart bravely can you find a more powerful self...

There are too many famous sayings and aphorisms in this book, which are philosophical and profound. They are durable to read and touch the depths of people’s souls. I always want to record all these good words and sentences.
1. I don’t know if you have ever thought about where the source of motivation is for us to survive in this world. Who has provided you with a steady stream of strength to overcome the difficulties of life? Parents and friends? Many people may have given us material support or verbal encouragement and comfort, but the only one who can really help you overcome the hurdle in your heart is yourself.
2. There is as much practice as there is impermanence. What we have to do is to use our inner strength to deal with impermanence with a compassionate and friendly heart.
3. Smile and silence are two effective weapons. Smile can solve many problems, and silence can avoid many problems. A person who is not tempted by greed has the least burden, because no one has a grudge against him, and he has no intention to care about others. This kind of life is the easiest and this kind of life is the happiest. The choice is actually very simple. You can't go wrong if you go to the place where you feel at ease. Days are broad because of love, warm because of love, and heavy because of trust.
4. Just as smiling can solve problems, silence can avoid them. A person should not be keen to show himself in the noise, nor should he use fierce arguments to prove something. Silence is a good way to keep one's mind. In this way, we can resist sudden temptations with a steady and solid attitude. With fewer temptations, you can live more easily.
5. Weaknesses determine the capacity of life
6. Sometimes, we think we win, but in fact, we lose! Because, we won "face", but lost "lizi"! We live in a society, and we must know how to win as well as lose; we must know how to compete as well as tolerate. Because we can't always win but never lose! We must know how to tolerate, give in and be grateful in a timely manner. Often, tolerance and concession are not necessarily "I lose", but may be a "win-win"!
7. If you are kind to others, even though the blessings have not yet come, the misfortunes are far away;
8. If you are evil to others, although the misfortunes have not yet come, the misfortunes are far away.
9. Because the earth is round, dark clouds cannot cover the same place forever.
10. The mistakes we make are not "destined", let alone arranged by God. Everyone grows from one mistake after another. When facing a mistake, the most important thing is to correct it in time and get rid of the negative emotions as soon as possible instead of stagnating in frustration and self-blame.
11. Life has all five flavors, and everything is worth tasting.
12. The human heart is like water, quiet and clear.
13. To see the world not only with your eyes, but also with your heart.
A person who has lost the ability to appreciate is sad. His heart has become old. Whether a person has a broad mind is very important to see whether he can appreciate others and how he appreciates them.
14. What is the threshold? If you pass it, it becomes a door; if you don’t pass it, it becomes a threshold. But many people just can’t get over the threshold in their hearts. In fact, as long as you change your mood, the world will be completely different. Cultivation means cultivating the mind. No matter how you cultivate, you will cultivate the heart!
15. All things come from the heart. If the mind exists, all things will exist;
If the mind disappears, all things will perish. The years are long, and those who are busy will speed up;
The world is broad, and those who are humble will be narrow-minded
16. It is to understand one's true heart and discover a strong self in hardships and frustrations. The wisdom of life. Complaining cannot change the status quo, only hard work will bring hope.
17. Greed is the greatest poverty, and those who are greedy will eventually be destitute.
18. The pain and happiness in life are like two sides of the same coin, one side is pain and the other side is happiness. It is bitter when you are lost, and you are happy when you hope; it is bitter when you experience it, and you are happy when you recall it. What you think is bitter today will be a joy to remember tomorrow. There is no eternal suffering and happiness in life. Suffering and happiness often only exist in a moment in the human heart! Therefore, we should not be overjoyed because of gain, nor should we be miserable because of loss.
19. There are eight sufferings in life: birth, old age, illness, and death, separation from love, long-term resentment, not being able to get what you want, and not being able to let go. Only when the body and mind are emptied can one be able to escape from difficulties and difficulties, and all disasters will turn into dust. Suffering is just because we are still on the way to happiness.
20. Thoughts are the cause, and pain and joy are the results. No matter what kind of adversity you encounter, as long as you expand your mind and always have compassion, gratitude and joy, you can turn suffering into happiness.
21. There are no unhappy people, only hearts that refuse to be happy.
22. Giving is always happier than taking.
23. A person’s happiness index depends on his ability to deal with pain. When faced with pain, whether we are devastated or respond with a smile largely determines the weather on our road to life. When life blooms a flower-like smile in our hearts, the warm sunshine will shine on us.
24. If we regard the people around us as devils, we will live in hell; if we regard the people around us as angels, we can enter heaven. All things will eventually pass, and all things will eventually come. A peaceful heart can create immeasurable merit.
25. There are many happy people in the world. The reason why they are happy is not that they are free from pain, but that they are not controlled by pain.
