Text: Dust Valley Xingzhi.
There is no real goodness in this world, according to the grammar of the Diamond SutraThe so-called good person is not good, but good.
The goodness in the world's mouth is only obtained by pretending to be the Dharma attachment at the level of self-consciousness, but if you can let go of the goodness in your mouth, that is, you can see the true goodness, that is, you have achieved it"Perfection".
Therefore, true goodness is invisible, and it is even more difficult to speak, such as people drinking water, knowing their own warmth and coldness.
Nevertheless, we can also approach the supreme level infinitely through our own experience, gradually transcend the present self that is trapped in dust, and then look at all aspects of life from the perspective of the superego in order to solve all kinds of problems encountered in life.
The goodness in the dust is roughly divided into two kinds: one is true goodness and the other is hypocrisy; One is yang good, and the other is yin good.
True goodness and yang goodness are hidden, do not expose all the intentions, processes and results of your good deeds, do not publicize, do not high-profile, do not compare, this style of acting is not deliberate, but out of inner nature.
Therefore, you will often encounter the exclusion and slander of the people around you, and these external criticisms are beneficial and harmless to him, the so-called "borrowing the mouth of others, eliminating your own karma", the deeper the other party slanders you, the cleaner your previous sins are eliminated.
Knowing this truth, it is not difficult to understand the inadvisability of hypocrisy and yin goodness.
Whenever you do good deeds, you think about your own interests everywhere, you blindly and urgently want others to know your good deeds, and you always think about the weight of your efforts and returns, such ideas and concepts are called in the words of Lao Tzu"To be virtuous or not to be virtuous is to be virtuous; To be virtuous is not to lose virtue, but to have no virtue".
The superior virtue never thinks that it is virtuous, while the inferior virtue is always attached to a virtuous aspect and is trapped by virtue, so it is not virtuous.
The same is true of goodness, a good person who really does good deeds will not feel that he is doing a good deed, and will give it in a state of mind without self, without things, and without recipients, and his blessings are immeasurable.
If you don't have a certain ability to judge right and wrong, it is easy to fall into the situation set up by others for you, and let you be deceived.
