11, Mingzhi, Fat and Sweet Funeral Festival

Those who have amaranth and sausage are more icy and jade-clean; Those who are clothed and jade eaters, willing to be servile and servile. Gai Zhi is to be Ming, and the festival is from the fat and the funeral.

Those who are able to settle for coarse tea and light food are often as pure as ice and snow, as white and flawless as unpolished jade. And those who pursue gorgeous clothes and delicacies from the mountains and seas are often driven by materialism, groveling and losing their dignity and bottom line. Because, a person's ambition can only be manifested in an environment with a pure heart and few desires; And a person's discipline is often exhausted in the quagmire of materialism.

12. Be lenient in front of you, and your grace will be long after death

Let the fields before you be wide, so that no one sighs for injustice; The grace behind you will be kept for a long time, so that people will have grace that is not lacking.

A wise man's way of treating others is like a spring breeze, warm and tolerant. His words and deeds are like a drizzle of rain, silent and far-reaching. Because he knows that only by treating others with a broad mind can he avoid the dissatisfaction and complaints around him. And the blessing he left behind is like a deep galaxy, transcending time and space, so that future generations will always remember it. Such wisdom, like a stretch of mountains, still stands majestically after wind and rain, pointing out the direction for future generations.

13. The road must give way to one step, and the taste must be reduced by three points

Where the path is narrow, leave a step and pedestrians; If the taste is strong, subtract three points for people to taste; This is the world-related one-pole peace and well-being.

If you are stumbling on a narrow road, you might as well leave some room for others, like the sun in spring, warm and not dazzling; When encountering delicious food, leave three points for others to taste, just like the fruits of autumn, share without being stingy. This is the way of life, to retreat as advance, to give up as gain, in order to stand in the world safely, comfortable in the world.

14. Become famous and transcendent

The way of being a human being is not covered by esoteric theories, but requires us to find inner peace in the impetuous world. The road to study is not a secret that can be revealed, but requires us to open up a clear world in our complicated thoughts. In this way, we can appreciate the true meaning of life and taste the essence of learning.

15. Righteous heroes make friends and be pure-hearted

You must be chivalrous when making friends, and you must be a little plain.

When getting along with friends, we should have that chivalrous spirit like in martial arts, and once a friend is in trouble, we will not hesitate to draw a sword to help. At the same time, when dealing with the world, we must also maintain an innocent and innocent heart, as pure as a newborn baby, unpolluted by the world. Such a mentality allows us to not only fight side by side in the wind and rain, but also maintain innocence and kindness on the road of life.

16. Virtue comes first, and people come later

Favor is not in front of others, and morality is not left behind; The enjoyment is not exceeded, and the cultivation is not subtracted.

On the journey of chasing fame and fortune, do not rush to surpass others; On the path of cultivating virtue, we must not slack off and lag behind others. When enjoying material abundance, one should abide by the boundaries of identity and not exceed the norms; And when refining morality, we need to strive for perfection and live up to our mission. In this way, we can maintain peace and firmness in our hearts in the complex world and achieve a brilliant life.

17. Retreat is to advance, and to gain is to gain

The life of Zhang Ben who makes one step high, and regression is progress; Treating others with leniency is a blessing, and it is the foundation of benefiting others and benefiting oneself.

On the stage of life, those wise people who retreat into progress and treat others with tolerance are the real wise people. They are well aware that every concession is paving the way for future progress, leaving room for progress. And those who treat others with a generous heart are the happiest. Because they understand that by giving convenience to others, they are planting the seeds and laying the foundation for their own future convenience. This kind of wisdom, like a spring breeze, warms people's hearts and makes people more calm and comfortable in the journey of life.

18. Be arrogant and useless, repent and extinguish sins

The merit of the world should not be a word; A mortal sin should be nothing more than a word of repentance.

Even if you have the most brilliant achievements in the world, you can't resist the negative effect of an arrogant word "矜", which obscures your brilliance like a haze; On the contrary, even if you commit a heinous sin, as long as you can embrace the word "repentance" of repentance, you can wash away the stains of the past, like a spring breeze, and revive all things.

19, the fame makes people far from harm, and blames it on self-cultivation of virtue

It is not advisable to be alone in the famous beauty festival, and it can be far from harming the whole body by sharing some with others; Insulting and stigmatizing should not be pushed all the way, and some of them can be used to cultivate virtue.

Like the bright stars, they must not enjoy their splendor alone, but share the glory in the sky, so as not to be jealous of the fire and keep themselves safe; Like dirty water, you can't push its notoriety on others, and you need to bear a little bit of it, so that you can hide your wisdom and cultivate your character. Only in this way can we walk in the world, calmly, and without fear of wind and rain.

20, the way of heaven is jealous, and the hexagram is not resolved

If there is an inexhaustible meaning in everything, then creation cannot be jealous of me, and ghosts and gods cannot harm me. If the karma must be satisfied, and the merit must be profitable, there will be no internal changes, and external worries will be called.

On the stage of life, no matter what kind of activities we engage in, we should leave some room as the wise man said. This is not only respect for the things themselves, but also compliance with the laws of nature. If we leave no stone unturned, it seems to challenge the wisdom of the Creator, and it may even provoke the jealousy of those mischievous. They may inadvertently cause unnecessary trouble in your life.

The pursuit of perfection is of course human nature, but excessive pursuit may lead to internal contradictions and even external disturbances. Imagine if everything was polished to perfection and all achievements were at the pinnacle, would the world really be perfect? Not necessarily, I'm afraid Because the absence of flaws means that there is no room for improvement; Without a challenge, it means that life loses its passion. Worse still, excessive perfection can provoke jealousy and even unnecessary conflict in others.

So let's learn to leave some leeway on the road to perfection. This is not only to avoid the jealousy of the Creator, but also to protect oneself from the outside world. Remember, true wisdom is not the pursuit of perfection, but the pursuit of finding balance and finding oneself.
