More and more friends around me have begun to read the "Diamond Sutra", and even the post-00s have begun to read it, some people say that this is a kind of nihilism, I don't think so, I think I got in touch earlierGreat wisdom, nothing bad, because indeedVery**.

Over the years, I have read the Diamond Sutra several times, and it was not until I was 30 years old that I seemed to understand what the Diamond Sutra really wanted to tell usSecret,That is: life is just a game, as long as we can play "without stopping", all games are fun, and there will be no suffering and fear to torment you.

There is a sentence in the Diamond Sutra: There should be no place to live, but the heart should be born. I like Mr. Wang Defeng's explanation of this sentence very much: living is "living in phase", and phase is to distinguish all things and people in the world into a high and low, and staying in the distinction is called "living phase". And what is the heart that gives birth to its heart?It's the "original mind", and what everyone originally has is called the "original mind", and we can't see the original mind because we all live in the same place. If we can not dwell on the appearance, then the original mind appears. )

In my understanding as an ordinary person, it is "no desire is rigid", and life is originally a practice. So I seem to understand the precepts of Buddhism, and let go of greed, hatred, and ignorance, because these are all obstacles to regaining one's original heart and becoming a Buddha.

Dependent voidness

Tell a little story: the Buddha took our small group of children to the playground to play, we children, play a bumper car and play again and again and again and refused to go, the Buddha told the children not to indulge in bumper cars, there are a lot of fun, go to play the next game, our group of children reluctantly went to play the roller coaster, ouch, found that it was very fun, and played a few more times and refused to go, and finally all the games in the playground were played, and even some games were played many times, when they went out to leave, some children still rolled directly on the ground and refused to go。 Even if the Buddha told the children that this playground was just a dream, a temporary illusion, the children would not listen to it, and still cry and make trouble and want to continue playing the game.

In the eyes of us children, the playground is a paradise, and playing games is really fun. But in the Buddha's mind, he knew that the playground was the product of karma and would not exist forever, so he would not cling to false appearances. But children are prone to indulge in these illusions of playgrounds, believing that playgrounds will last forever.

Life is like a dream, each of us will have a time to wake up from a dream, birth, old age, sickness and death, and each of our lives will have an end time. Our life is to constantly experience different games, the deeper we live, the more obsessed we will be, the more reluctant and painfulLive in the present moment and plant the seeds of positive "causes".In fact, every moment of life will be the best arrangement ("Fruit".

There was nothing in the first place, where to stir up dust

Our life and death are not actually given to the worldand moreBring nothing, and nothingReduceWhat (the law of conservation of energy). From a cosmic perspective, the game of life (rules and laws of existence) sets our modes of existence, including competition, predation, and eating other organisms. Then we die, or we are preyed upon and absorbed by other organisms, and we decompose and become nutrients for the earth. It's a cyclical process that eventually returns to dust and becomes a part of the universe.
