Don’t worry about gains and losses in life, everything is God’s will

Floating life is like a dream, but a dream is not a dream. How about floating life? Like a dream.

—— Zhuangzi

Life is unpredictable, everything is impermanent, and it is like a dream in the blink of an eye. There is no question of gain or loss in life, everything is God’s will.

I once read a book called "Buddhist Life". The Buddhist interpretation of life is very philosophical and profound. How does the Buddhist interpretation of gains and losses in life and God's will?

Buddhists say that each of us is a small universe, and every cell in our body is running regularly and repeatedly.

A large number of cells in the human body are dying every second, and a large number of cells are being renewed, always following rules.

Just like life, birth, old age, illness and death are the same, and life and death happen to us all the time, but we are not aware of it.

The cycle of nature is the cycle of life. This is the Buddhist view of the universe and life, that is, the truth of life in the universe.

In the movement of the sun, moon and stars, the end point is the starting point. Only by following the rules can they operate normally, otherwise it will be unimaginable.

That is to say, as the Buddhists say, "the Tao cannot be separated."

What does it mean? For example, when we go to pick up something, our brain accurately directs our hands through the nervous system to get the thing accurately and in time. This is what Buddhism calls "Tao".

Failure to follow nature is to violate the laws of "Tao", and there will be setbacks if you go against the Tao.

This is what Buddhism says about life. The ups and downs, pain and disasters experienced in life are all the result of going against the "Tao".

So, as the Buddhists say, let everything take its course, why force it? I am lucky to gain it, and my life is to lose it. Life will not bring it, death will not take it away, there is no gain or loss, just let nature take its course. .

What Buddhism calls "seeking" is to pursue life and everything in life by following the laws of nature in a reasonable and legal manner.

Just as each of our citizens must abide by national laws and regulations, we must not violate laws and disciplines, otherwise we will be punished.

So, what kind of path does the Buddhist philosophy of life guide in our lives?

Just like the road of life, some roads can only be walked by one person. One day, they will eventually be separated at a certain intersection. They arise due to fate and separate due to fate. This road of life is destined to be lonely. If If you are lucky enough to have someone accompany you, talk and laugh, this life is enough. Whether it lasts forever, why bother forcing it.

The best thing in life is to understand as you go. Don’t squeeze into a world that you can’t squeeze into, otherwise you will make things difficult for others and make yourself look bad.

Don’t do things that you can’t do by force. If you think differently, you may get twice the result with half the effort.

Don’t take things that you can’t get. Even if you get them temporarily, you will lose them.

Don't measure a person's success or failure by wealth, and don't look down on other people's careers. There is no high or low career. If you have faith, none of this will matter.

Don’t crave understanding and recognition from others in life, because others don’t have these obligations.

Live your life quietly. If your heart does not move, the wind will do nothing to me. If you are not hurt, the years will be fine.

Things change with the mind, situations are created by the mind, and all worries arise from the mind.

Some things and some people are hard to come by, and forcing them will only lead to pain.

Relax your mind and let nature take its course. No matter when and where you are, you should have a peaceful mind so that you can live a life that is not tiring.

In life, there are too many things that cannot be grasped. In this case, why not let yourself live this life freely and freely.

The gratitude and resentment in life are just a breath. This breath is stuck in my heart, just because I can't think about it and can't see through it.

A plain life is a blessing, a plain life is true. It is light so it is not bitter. When the sweetness becomes too strong, it becomes bitter. When the bitterness becomes too strong, the heart becomes weak.

Life is like water, and desire is like sugar. The more sugar, the sweeter the water is. Appropriate pursuit can make life sweet. If there are too many desires, sweetness will turn into bitterness.

A heart can withstand indifference and see gains and losses indifferently. Although there is no great joy, there is no great sadness.

A touch of time, a touch of heart, walking quietly, sitting elegantly, sleeping peacefully, the taste of life, the fragrance will last for a long time.

People, everything depends on the heart, starts from the heart, and is done by the heart. If the heart is not sad, people will not be cold. If the heart is not separated, love will not be far away. If the heart is not hateful, there will be warmth in the world. , if the heart is clear, the sea and sky are blue.

Pain is all caused by yourself. You must know how to reflect, understand your own sorrows, and feel your own happiness.

Maybe the hell in your own eyes is the heaven in other people's eyes.

The days of feasting and feasting are a blessing for some people, but a blessing for others.

Maybe the heaven in your own eyes is the hell in the eyes of others.

In Buddhism, one thought is heaven, one thought is hell, one is everything, and one thought is everything.

Life is so unpredictable, even ridiculous and funny.

Don’t always think that others are better than yourself. The key lies in your own mentality. If you don’t compare, live your own life is more important than anything else.

In life, between pain and happiness, there is no you and me, only feelings and experiences.

Between today and tomorrow, there is no time, only the present moment, which is what Buddhists say, the present moment is.

Between hell and heaven, there is no distance, only changing of thoughts. Between reincarnation and nirvana, there is no difference, only letting go. That is what Buddhists say, one thought gives birth to another and one thought dies.

In this world, there is no impassable road, only people who cannot figure it out. If the heart is blocked, the road will be dead.

When flowers bloom, they must fall; when clouds gather, they disperse. Everything depends on fate.

Being in pain will make you calmer, being stupid will make you wiser, crying will make you calmer, and laughing will make you more open-minded. Only by experiencing it can you understand and appreciate it.

If you have no distracting thoughts and are compassionate, you will be able to pass through it. If you look further, your mind will be broader.

The most embarrassing thing in life is to overestimate your position in the minds of others. In fact, you know clearly that the most despicable thing is emotion, and the coldest thing is people's hearts. What is yours is yours, and there is no use forcing it.

A person's profound knowledge is not used to show off, nor is it used to conquer others, but to see clearly one's own insignificance.

A person's wealth is not used to show off luxury, but to increase his responsibility for promoting good.

A person’s prominent position is not for self-respect, but for leading others forward, like a leader.

The strong defense of a person's strength is not to bully the weak, but to breathe freely, to be calm and rational.

A person has greater energy, not to satisfy selfish desires, but to assume more responsibilities and missions.

Life only cares about the process. No matter what the outcome is, people should get along well with each other. Even if they eventually part ways, they should still be grateful for meeting each other.

Meet in an elegant manner, get along with a friendly attitude, say goodbye with a grateful attitude, and leave beautiful memories in your heart.

In life, don’t let other people’s words, eyes, or expressions affect your mood. I hope that every day you wake up, your life will be full of sunshine.

All encounters in a person's life must eventually be parted, but the way of saying goodbye is different. There is no pity or misfortune in this. Everything is what Buddhism calls the origin and destruction.

When you think about some things, you will understand that in this world you are who you are. If you hurt, you hurt yourself. The pain and tiredness are all your own. Even if someone sympathizes with you, so what?

In the end, you are the one who can clean up the mess. Remember, there are some people you can look forward to, but you cannot rely on.

In the world, if it is difficult to gain, it is difficult to lose. If it is easy to gain, it is also difficult to lose.

As the Buddhists say:

"Don't ask about gains and losses in life, everything is God's will."

We must correctly, rationally and emotionally understand and interpret the principles of nature, universe and life taught to us by Buddhism.
