Buddhist quip

Lead: The following are four Buddhist quips I have compiled, which are enough for everyone to enjoy life.

A Buddhist quip: The greatest wealth in life is health.

Although this language is widely known, it is not easy to really understand it. Look at people who are confused by fame, moved by profit, running around for officials, or distressed by feelings at all times and in all countries. Regard fame, wealth and affection as the highest pursuit of life, but don't know that the greatest wealth in life is only your own health. I remember a novel about a man obsessed with money who entered Huang Jinshan. The mountains are full of gold and jewels, and he is ecstatic. But because of greed, I finally fell into Huang Jinshan and couldn't get out, so I left a few bones in Huang Jinshan. Aren't you sad? It can be seen that health is the most precious and greatest wealth in life. If one figures this out, then any thoughts of fame and wealth and extravagant desires can be swept away.

The second punch line of Buddhism: The most pitiful thing in life is jealousy.

Jealousy is the easiest thing to encounter in life. Reese slandered the king of Qin because he was jealous of his classmate Han Fei's talent. Han Fei died in prison. Pang Juan was jealous that Sun Bin had more knowledge than himself, so he framed Sun Bin with a deadly trap and crippled Sun Bin. According to the Buddhist quip, Reese and Pang Juan are both very poor people. Even if their plot succeeds for a while, it will not end well in the end.

Jealousy is a disease, and people who suffer from jealousy will be restless all their lives. They are afraid that someone will surpass them today, and they are afraid that someone will walk in front of him tomorrow. He lives in poverty and sickness all day. On the contrary, people who have really succeeded in history are ashamed of jealousy. Ouyang Xiu was a literary leader in the Northern Song Dynasty. When he recognized Su Dongpo, someone said to Ouyang Xiu. Su Dongpo is very talented. If the public knows this person, I am afraid that after ten years, everyone will only know Su Dongpo and not Ouyang Xiu. ? But Ouyang Xiu laughed it off and still promoted Su Dongpo. Later generations revere Ouyang Xiu even more. After Su Dongpo stood up, he was even more grateful. He wrote a eulogy for Ouyang Xiu, which is famous throughout the ages.

The third punch line of Buddhism: The biggest enemy in life is yourself.

That's all that matters. People will always meet some enemies in their life, such as hooligans, rogues and villains. These devil wears Prada is extremely hateful, but what they see through is just a pile of rubbish. Every man is his own worst enemy. If a person can beat himself, he is invincible. I am afraid that I am sick, I am at a loss, I am hesitant, or I overestimate myself, so I am arrogant; Or worship others too much and feel inferior. Once you beat yourself, you will have a leap in your mind and turn over a new page in your life.

The fourth punch line of Buddhism: The greatest happiness in life is to let go.

In life, picking it up is a kind of courage, and letting it go is a kind of generosity. For the flowers and applause on the road of life, people with life experience can take it for granted, and those who have experienced many storms are more self-aware. However, it is not easy to treat the stumbling mud with a normal heart. It is a kind of magnanimity not to be moved by great setbacks and disasters, but to bear them calmly. Buddhists take pleasure in having a big belly that can accommodate world affairs, which is a very high level. It is safe when it comes, and it is a kind of detachment, but it takes years of tempering to develop this detachment. It is precious to be able to afford it, and it is the true meaning of life to let go.
