7. There is nothing outside the heart.
Wang Yangming, a thinker of the Ming Dynasty, said: "There is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and going to evil for good is a thing." These four sentences are not only the core of Yangming's psychology, but not an empty theory, Wang Yangming's most important "practice", and only through practice can we better grasp the essentials of knowing people.
People who generally see through life and death, look down on money, look down on feelings, and look down on power, generally have a sense of Buddhism, have rich life experience, see through the warmth and coldness of the world, no longer maintain extravagant hopes in life, live freely and calmly, and have a good attitude. For them, nothing can impress them except health, even if they are healthy, they know their certainty, go with the flow, and fend for themselves! But they are not negative, they still have to do what they need to do, and they have no complaints.
There is nothing outside the heart, nothing outside the heart, and no reason outside the heart. What Wang Yangming means is that all the problems in the world are just problems of the heart, and if the heart is open and open, there is nothing that cannot be overcome. It can be seen that the language of human action starts from the heart, and both action and language are portrayals of the heart, so language and action are the natural reactions of the heart.
Wang Yangming's 9 classic quotations of mind:
1. "The wisdom of mortals is not far apart, and the decision of victory or defeat does not wait for the city, but only between the heart and the immobility." ”Wang Yangming believes that as long as people have sufficient knowledge reserves, there is not much difference in intelligence between them, and once they are on the battlefield, the attribution of victory or defeat depends to a large extent on whether their hearts can be shaken by the ever-changing situation. In modern society, in the face of various competitions, if you want to realize your self-worth and achieve your life goals, you also need to master the wisdom of "this heart and immobility".
2. "When there is nothing to do, it is only knowledge, and when there is something, it is also only knowledge." If a man does not know the power of this place of knowledge, but only works in a place that is known to men, he is a hypocrisy. ”Wang Yangming's words are to the effect that you don't need others to judge whether you are doing right or not, as long as you know what you are doing; Regardless of whether others can see or hear you, even when you are alone, you should insist on doing the right things and saying the right things, so that your heart can be truly strong.
3. "Holding on to ambition is like heartache, and if you are focused on pain, how can you have the effort to gossip and meddle in things?" ”Wang Yangming's view of "holding an ambition is like a heartache" is a very vivid metaphor, which means that if you have an ambition in your heart, if you don't achieve it one day, you will feel it sting people's hearts one day. As a metaphor for heartache, this is a strong sense of urgency, and it is precisely because of this sense of urgency that Wang Yangming can devote himself to the action of realizing his life ambition.
Fourth, "our generation only seeks to decrease day by day, not to increase day by day." To reduce a point of human desire is to regain a point of heavenly reason; How brisk! How easy! ”Wang Yangming once said: "Don't seek daily increase, only daily decrease." In fact, his view is the same as Lao Tzu's view of "learning more and more, and losing for the Tao". Both sages believed that on the road of being a human being, one should reduce one's inner desires every day, and when one's greed decreases little by little, one will gradually enter a chic state of going with the flow.
5. "If you can turn against yourself, you will see that you have a lot of unfinished places, and you will be able to laugh at yourself (xixiaResponsible? ”Wang Yangming's psychology has always emphasized that people should always reflect on themselves, face up to their own shortcomings and mistakes, and not blindly blame others. If you just blindly blame others and only see the faults of others, then you will not be able to see your own shortcomings, and over time, you will only be riddled with bad habits and annoying people.
Sixth, "It is easy to break the mountain, but it is difficult to break the heart." Just cut out rat theft, what a difference. If the sages sweep away the henchmen and clean up the merits, this sincere husband will be an immortal achievement. ”"It is easy to break the mountain and the thief is difficult to break the heart", this deep thinking is an important part of Wang Yangming's mental wisdom. One of the major characteristics of Yang Ming Mind is that it is "based on the righteousness of the heart", and the so-called thieves in the heart are actually those negative emotions, thoughts, habits, evil deeds and so on that we commonly have. Wang Yangming believes that people's various selfish desires are rooted in the heart, and only through self-examination can they improve their self-cultivation and live in accordance with moral norms, which is where "breaking the heart of the thief" lies. In other words, a person's biggest enemy is himself, and only by starting from his own heart can he truly change himself.
7. "Happiness is the essence of the mind." The heart of benevolence, with heaven and earth and all things as one, is happy and smooth, and there is no interval. ”
Wang Yangming believes that whether people feel happy or not is felt by their own hearts, that is, there is not so much unhappiness in the world, and many times, unhappiness is imposed on us by ourselves. Therefore, staying happy all the time in the complicated world is the real effort.
8. "A serious illness in life is just a 'proud' word." ”Wang Yangming always believes that a proud word is the root of all major illnesses in life. If a child is proud and arrogant, he will definitely not be filial to his parents; If you are a subordinate of a man, if you are proud and arrogant, you will definitely be disloyal. A proud and arrogant person, always self-centered, is the worst of all the bad qualities of a person.
9. "This heart is bright, and what can I say." ”"This heart is bright, and what can I say", this is Wang Yangming's summary of his life in the days before his death. The reason why Wang Yangming is so confident and passionate is because of his mental wisdom. "This heart is bright, and what can I say" is a true portrayal of Wang Yangming's majestic life.
