Be clear about yourself and be kind to others.
Practice lies in self-interest and altruism. This is not shouting slogans, but telling the truth. If the heart is right, it is for the truth. How to be self-interested and clear your heart. How to be altruistic? Always kind.
A young friend asked: how can I practice well? I feel that many people around me can only recite Buddha, chant scriptures and hold spells, but they have no actual practice. When it comes to theory, things get annoying.
A: Be clear-headed and see sex.
Q: How can we see sex clearly?
Answer: find what you want to ask now, don't think about it, just find it. It's that simple.
Q: Ah, you suddenly shocked me! What does this mean?
A: It doesn't mean anything. It means the product of the mind, but it is the foundation of the mind. Although it is the foundation, it is empty, and emptiness is the foundation of all things. Go and find it. If you find it, you will practice. If you find the foundation of all existence, you will find visibility. The general principle of a law is universal, that is to say, it should be well understood.
Q: I feel a little, but I don't know where to start. What should I do?
A: Those who practice must be idle people. It is impossible for a rough-hearted person to practice, and there is no way to see sex when he is upset. When you are calm, you will see sex when you think about it. Deal with trivial matters first, learn to meditate, and then talk about practice.
Is it easy to practice? It's not easy. Is it difficult to practice? Not difficult. When you regard practice as the only thing in life, it will become very easy.
In the process of food, clothing, housing and sleeping, you only have it, it only has you, you are not it, it is you, and it will never be cut off when you die. This is a person with clear mind and clear thinking. Such people have experienced the ocean of life and death troubles.
Treat yourself with a clear heart and treat others with kindness. The man was clear-headed and got rid of his troubles initially. How should he treat others? Always be kind to everyone. It is really not easy to do. Take your time.
However, what should we do in the face of unreasonable villains? If you indulge the wicked, won't you become a cruel accomplice?
There are two kinds of villains. One category is heinous villains, who must be brought to justice to prevent them from continuing to commit evil deeds and avoid more people being victimized. There are endless benefits in bringing them to justice. Therefore, the staff of the public security and legal departments who act impartially have boundless merits.
Another kind of villain is ordinary villain, such as a small group of people who like to bully others on the Internet. They just want to vent their anger, try their best to attract traffic, and take the opportunity to make some fame and profits. They are poor and pitiful, don't dispute with them! Cut them some slack and let them die with their karma. This is compassion and kindness.
If you quarrel with them, what are you?
Even if you are kind to the wicked, the biggest beneficiary is not others, but yourself. Why? Because you have virtually solved the troubles and habits in your heart, you have benefited a lot, and the wisdom of Prajna in your heart has been sublimated, which is enough for self-interest and altruism.
