Any point of view we make must stand up to scrutiny, to ask why, so that it can stand. Otherwise, many ideas are not very mature, and others are inexplicable when they hear it, and they don't know what they are talking about.
Therefore, we try not to express our opinions casually, but to be mature when we want to publish them. It's an attitude, and it's a practice.
Spiritual practice is embodied in the three aspects of body, mouth, and mind, and the mind is expressed through the body and mouth, and what you say naturally reflects what you think. Only mature minds can have mature views. What kind of viewpoint is mature and can stand up to scrutiny?
First of all, the viewpoint must be comprehensive, and it must not be biased, misleading or misleading people, otherwise it will be paranoid to one side.
Not being extreme and not one-sided is the premise, even if the point of view is very ordinary, but it is very comprehensive and broad, it is a point worth putting forward.
Extremism and one-sidedness are too subjective and self-oriented, and they are all manifestations of "self-grasping", and if some are mixed with prejudices or emotions, they are even more "self-grasping", and their views are naturally prejudiced. This kind of viewpoint with personal prejudice is the so-called "evil opinion". What is the difference between publishing evil views and venting poisonous gas?
Therefore, to look at the problem holistically, it is necessary to have breadth. This is the key to correct views and the first step in establishing the right perspective.
Secondly, it would be better if your point of view had a height in addition to breadth, and there was something outstanding, and even a height of originality. Such an opinion is as precious as gold, and it is naturally a blessing for those who hear it to express it.
Why is there such a high point of view and so much value?
Because there is a high point of view, it can only be in a high-end position.
What is a "high-end location"?
The first is high thinking, which is to break through the limitations of self-consciousness, to be able to reach harmony, and to move towards the height of "no thought";
The second is the high realm, which is to break through the limitations of one's own mentality, not to be attached to all the feelings of oneself, and to tend to "no phase";
The third is the high point of view, which is to break through the limitations of the self's perspective, to achieve emptiness, and to live in "non-dwelling".
To sum it up in this way, the "high-end position" is "selflessness", and at the height of selflessness, people's views are truly comprehensive and final, and only then can a mature view be established.
