He was successful in his studies, and when he was a student, he had a number of prestigious schools to choose from, which was a satisfactory result of his family and himself, and he was worthy of his youth. When he left home, his parents thought that he was going to go to MIT to start a new school journey, but they never thought that he was going to go to the mountains to become a monk.
It was only when he went up the mountain that he relayed the contents of his letter rejecting MIT to his family. His parents hurried away and returned home disappointed, so he started a different life path and began a life of self-cultivation and self-cultivation.
Yoo Ji-woo wrote the book "Every Step of Life Counts", and one of the things mentioned in it made me forget for a long time. That's when he made lampshades, hoping to reduce the number of bugs that would lose their lives to the hot lamp.
At first, he was afraid of bugs. I can hear my brother talking to him"Bugs also have emotions and life", he began to change his mind, and even wanted to protect them when he saw the bugs that pounced on the light bulb lose their lives.
Of course, he is not like ** or the protagonist in film and television dramas, it is really not easy to realize such an idea in reality. His zeal to make lampshades turned out to be self-defeating, causing more bugs to lose their lives.
The successive failures made him lose confidence at one point, but he was lucky enough to receive encouragement from his senior brother. When you encounter setbacks, you should not give up, but persevere. He had a mind set up on continuing to try to find a way to help the bugs.
So, he went to learn, to think, to try, and in the end, he ended up buying LED bulbs that were a little darker but much less harmful to insects. After changing the light bulb, the ** rate of bugs decreased by about 10%. It's not big, but it's comforting.
The process of taking refuge is complicated, but it is easy to be vulgar. After 11 years of becoming a monk, Liu Zhiyu went down the mountain to join the WTO, established his own career, got married and married a wife, and pursued his ideals in another way.
Whether it is up or down the mountain, he has encountered other people's disappointments, doubts and reluctance, but what remains unchanged is that he is still pursuing what he has in his heart"Love"。
He used to carry out Buddhist mental activities to help visitors. However, this activity also raises a number of problems. Free activities need to rely on donations from lay people; Most people don't value free help and don't believe that free help really helps them.
The uncertainty of many parties, as well as the halving of the actual effect, made him further think about how to help more people and truly realize his ideals.
Because of this, he finally decided to return to the mountain and help sentient beings in another way. He joined the psychology industry and went his own way in the form of free + paid.
Find your own way, so you don't get lost, and feel comfortable every step of the way. Every step in life counts, and every step we take has made us who we are today.
Looking back on my life, every time I decide, it's the best.
