Hello everyone, I'm the orange girl who shares her opinion with you.
In the long river of history, some people's names are like bright stars, forever shining on future generations, illuminating the darkness and confusion on the way forward.
Master Hongyi is such an admirable figure.
His life seems to be the best commentary on the old saying: "There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't want it." ”
Between the red dust and the green light, he understands the gains and losses in life.
Born into a wealthy family, Master Hongyi, formerly known as Li Shutong, showed extraordinary talent and talent at an early age.
His artistic attainments are extremely high, and he has dabbled in poetry, calligraphy and painting, and has made remarkable achievements.
But when he was in his prime, he chose to escape into the empty door and concentrate on cultivation, with the Dharma name Hongyi.
This choice seems to be the arrangement of fate, and it seems to be the deepest desire of the heart.
In Venerable Hongyi's view, everything in life is a passing moment.
What was once possessed, will eventually be lost;What you don't get may not belong to you in the first place.
He once said: "When you meet it, you pick it up, and if you lose it, you let it go." ”
It is a kind of wisdom that is beyond the world, and it is also a kind of realization of the impermanence of life.
In his practice, Master Hongyi constantly pursues the purification of the soul and the sublimation of personality.
He knows very well that everything in the world has a fixed number, and gains and losses are not controlled by human beings.
Therefore, he always maintains a peaceful mind, does not take pleasure in things, and does not feel sad for himself.
In his opinion, the greatest sorrow in life is to cling to those things that do not belong to you, and ignore the real needs of your heart.
Throughout the career of Master Hongyi, there are many breathtaking legends.
It is said that on one occasion, he traveled to a certain place and met a businessman who was obsessed with fame and fortune. The merchant recounted his misfortunes and troubles, hoping to receive liberation from Master Hongyi.
After hearing this, Master Hongyi smiled and said, "All you have lost does not belong to you in the first place. ”
After hearing this, the merchant was thoughtful, and then suddenly realized that he let go of the obsession in his heart.
Yes, the gains and losses in life are like the ebb and flow of the tide, which is impermanent.
We often say that "there are times in life that must come and go", which is not a negative fatalism, but a kind of reverence and acceptance of life.
In Master Hongyi's view, "As long as you do your best, fight and work hard, there is nothing to regret." ”
Because those dreams and pursuits that you have worked so hard for, even if they do not come to fruition, have left an indelible mark on your life.
Life is like a dream, and years are like a song.
Venerable Hongyi has used his life to tell us that everything in life is the best arrangement. Whether it is gain or loss, it is a gift from fate. We need to learn to appreciate the beauty of these gifts and be grateful for each experience and growth.
Loss is not terrible, what is terrible is the persistence and reluctance to lose.
When we are able to face the gains and losses of life calmly, our hearts will be truly calm and at ease.
As Master Hongyi said, "When you meet it, you pick it up, and when you lose it, you let it go." ”
Such freedom and freedom may be the true pursuit of life.
In the teachings of Venerable Hongyi, we not only comprehended the philosophy of life, but also found the sustenance and destiny of the soul.
In this complex world, we may be lost and helpless, but as long as we have faith and wisdom in our hearts to guide the way forward, we can find our own pure land.
Today, Venerable Hongyi is no longer with us, but his teachings and spirit remain forever.
Whenever we are faced with a life choice or dilemma, we might as well calm down and think about the words of Venerable Hongyi: "All you have lost does not belong to you in the first place." ”
Perhaps in this realization, we can find the courage and strength to move forward.
Everything in the world has a certain number, and so do gains and losses.
We should cherish the present, let go of our obsessions, and walk through every journey of life with gratitude.
Adhering to such a philosophy of life and attitude to life may be the only way for each of us to pursue spiritual purification and realm improvement.
Every encounter and parting in life contains a deep sense of Zen.
When you meet, cherish fate and feel it with your heart;When parting, let go and bless the way forward.
In this way, we can truly not consume ourselves excessively, do not suffer from gains and losses, and do not suffer from bitterness and hatred.
In this ever-changing world, let us face all the causes and circumstances of gain and loss, sorrow and joy, gathering and dispersing with a quiet heart.
Let's learn the ability to live happily.
