Vinny Sha Tu Nisha
Realize that the past is not admonished, and those who know the future can be traced. ”
Enlightenment seems to be a turning point in life, and from then on, we are no longer bothered by the "four outfits", but calmly face every moment of life.
So, what exactly are these "four outfits"?Listen to me slowly.
1. Pretending
Dong Shi imitates the wind, but loses its truth. ”
Everyone has "postured" at times, perhaps to pander to others, or to cover up their own shortcomings.
My good friend Xiao Li is an example. He used to like to talk and quote scriptures at meetings, as if he were a wise man who knew everything.
But after enlightenment, he understood that true wisdom lies in humility and truthfulness in the heart. Now, he is more willing to listen to other people's stories and share his true feelings, rather than "pretending".
Second, pretend to be a model
Outside of the gold and jade, it is ruined. ”
There are those who are glamorous on the outside, but empty on the inside.
That's the case with my relative, Aunt Zhang. She used to always pursue brand-name clothes and luxury goods, and she had to show off every time she met.
But after enlightenment, she realized that true happiness is not measured by material things. Now, she pays more attention to inner cultivation and true self, and no longer pursues material enjoyment and superficial brilliance excessively.
3. Pretend to be deaf and dumb
Ears do not hear the wrongs of people, and eyes do not look at the shortcomings of people. ”
Sometimes, in order to avoid trouble or avoid responsibility, we choose to "pretend to be deaf and dumb".
That's the case with my colleague Wang Ke. He used to always turn a blind eye to the problems at work, and he didn't listen to them, for fear of getting involved.
But after enlightenment, he understood that having the courage to take responsibility and face problems head-on is the only way to grow.
Now, he not only dares to take responsibility in his work, but also actively contributes to the team and has become a trusted partner of everyone.
Fourth, pretend to be crazy and sell stupid clothes
Great wisdom is foolishness, great ingenuity is clumsy. ”
Sometimes, "pretending to be crazy and stupid" can be a way to escape reality and cover yourself.
My neighbor Lao Zhang had such an experience. When faced with setbacks and difficulties in life, he once chose to escape reality by "pretending to be crazy and stupid".
But after becoming enlightened, he learned to face up to his inner and life's challenges. Now, he faces every moment of life with an optimistic attitude, and no longer evades and hides.
Conclusion:Life is like a practice, and the "four outfits" are just an episode in it. After enlightenment, we are like phoenixes in nirvana, reborn.
We are no longer trapped by the "four outfits", but bravely face every challenge in life.
This kind of calmness and authenticity not only makes us more confident and calm, but also makes our lives more colorful.
Just as the ancients said: "After washing the lead, the bloom is plain, and the face is still as red as a flower." ”
After enlightenment, we have stripped away all pretenses and shown our truest selves, and this is the most beautiful scenery in our lives.
I hope that everyone can find their own path to enlightenment, live their true self, and achieve inner peace and freedom!
