Hao Zhi looked it up on the Internet.

How do you meditate?

There was a lot of information on the Internet, so he first looked for it from Buddhism.

Buddhism has its own set of teachings on meditation.

First, meditation is the reluctance to give up on feelings.

Human beings are sentient beings, and it is impossible to give up feelings, but it is not good to be overly attached, so we must use reason to guide our feelings, and we must use compassion to purify our feelings.

If the feelings are too light, they will be cold, and if the feelings are too strong, they will be hot, and it is not very pleasant to be cold and hot, and it is best to deal with them with the wisdom of the middle way. The intelligence of the middle way can sublimate our feelings and can bring us closer to a static mind.

To put it bluntly, this means that you have to have a degree of control over your feelings, but if you say that, it's not the same thing.

Second, meditation is not rejecting or greedy for the five desires.

The five desires refer to wealth, sex, fame, food, and sleep. Some people are insatiable for the five desires, but some people are afraid of them like a flood of beasts. In fact, the five desires are not terrible, "people are obsessed with lust if they are not charming, and everyone is drunk if they are not drunk with wine", what is terrible is that our hearts do not know how to guide the five desires.

If you roll in the sea of desires, of course you will be swallowed, but people should have a legitimate life of five desires in the world. If you eat too much, you will be too bloated, and if you sleep too much, you will be too drowsy, but if you don't eat or sleep, you will not be able to generate strength, and you will not be able to start with diligence.

Therefore, we must not refuse or be greedy for the legitimate life of the five desires.

Well, this Hao Zhi is still very well controlled, he himself is a street fighter, and he has been at home for a long time. I never go to those messy places. Well, this one is skipped.

Third, meditation is to never get tired of the world.

Some people have more requirements in the world, if you have a daughter, you want to have a son, if you have a house, you want to have a car, the more you want, the greater the desire, the greater the possibility of disillusionment, just like a child blowing colorful bubbles, the bigger and more beautiful, but also the more dangerous.

Some people are overly world-weary, isolated from the group, abandon fame and spit, and when it comes to fame-related, they say: "I don't want a name, just write an anonymous name for me!" In fact, "nameless name" is also a kind of name.

Therefore, we should not get tired of this world and never ask for it, but deal with it with a normal heart. An ordinary mind is a static and lively mind.

Fourth, meditation is not afraid of life and death.

The living die, the dead live, life and death are like a wheel of fire, and there is nothing more mourning than heart death. If you are obsessed with life and death, you are afraid of life and death, and if you have the heart of life and death, you will have the endless cycle of life and death.

People are often fascinated by life and death and are afraid of life and death. In fact, what is the obsession with life and death? What is the fear of life and death? A correct outlook on life should be one that is neither obsessed nor fearful. Death is not the end of everything, but like moving, this house collapses, and you find a way to go to another home.

In short, in this world, we must not be attached to our feelings, we must not refuse or be greedy for the five desires, we must not be tired of the world, and we must not be confused or afraid of life and death, so that we can live a happy life in meditation.

PS: The above text is excerpted from Master Nebula's book "Wide Heart"

Hao Zhi looked at this large section of Buddhism's requirements for meditation, and it was quite reasonable. However, being able to say does not mean that he can do it, what he needs most is actually how to do it.

There are various ways to calm the mind on the Internet: for example, listening to music can calm people's minds, fishing can calm people's minds, practicing calligraphy can make people calm their minds, or simply travel and let the mind travel.

There are many methods, most of which are to calm yourself in one thing, let yourself cultivate your mind, and achieve a state of unavoidable heart.

These methods are very good, that is, let one thing occupy the whole of your mind, so that you don't think about other things and think about everything.

Hao Zhi looked around his house and saw that the whole house was in a mess, with dirty clothes everywhere and iron filings and wood ashes everywhere.

What are you doing all this time?

How can you calm yourself in such an environment?

As it is said on the Internet, to meditate, you must first leave your work environment.

He began to tidy up the house, he cleaned up the garbage, washed all the dirty clothes, and put everything in order.

After two hours of cleaning, Hao Zhi felt that his mentality was much better.

When you get busy, you don't think about anything, isn't this a state of meditation?

This is very good, then the next thing is to leave your own work environment, that is, to leave this house, to travel for a few days, to let the mind travel, to see the mountains, to see the sea.

Jinling is some distance from the sea, but now the transportation is convenient, and it is only a few hours to the sea.

He took out his phone and checked the high-speed rail ticket.

The most recent high-speed train to the magic capital was half an hour later, and the journey took 3 hours.

Uh~~, Hao Zhi slipped his hand and booked the ticket directly.

Well, since you bought it, let's go.

He rummaged through a travel bag, grabbed a few changes of clothes, brought his mobile phone ID wallet, and prepared to go.

When he was about to go out, he paused, turned around, and stuffed the "Zhaowu Lei Benjing" and the electric baton into his bag.

On the way to the train station, he texted his parents and a few friends, informing them that he was going to travel for a few days and told them not to worry.

If they come to find themselves and find that they have disappeared, they must not be in a hurry?

Now the traffic is really developed, and 4 hours later, Hao Zhi has already stayed in an ordinary hotel by the Bund in the magic capital.

He plans to go to the Bund tomorrow for a stroll, and by the way, go to the center of the magic capital opposite, and have a bird's-eye view of the entire city.

Now he doesn't have much money in his pocket, and he still owes more than 20,000 yuan to the monkey, which can't support the long-term travel expenses. This hotel is the cheapest in the vicinity of the Bund.

With nothing to do in the evening, he began to code.

Some time ago, he encountered various things, so he didn't have the heart to calm down and code words. After this novel was put on the shelves, it relied on the support of the manuscript to support the update. Now there are not many manuscripts in stock, and he needs to replenish them in time.

The code word arrived late at night, I don't know if it was because there were too many recent encounters, which made him think like a spring, and by 12 o'clock at midnight, he had coded out 6 chapters and 12,000 words.

He bent over, ready to take a shower and sleep.

"Ah~~~"

Suddenly, a woman's scream came from outside the door, and it made goosebumps stand up when you heard it.

Hao Zhi was also bold, took the electric baton and opened the door and went out.

By this time, several rooms had already opened their doors, and the tenants were probing their brains and looking in the direction where the sound came from.

In a room at the end of the corridor, several people had gathered at the door, and a woman dressed as a waitress was squatting in the corridor and sobbing quietly.

Hao Zhi stepped forward, and the voices of several people at the door came into his ears.

"How did this die? I had a heart attack?"

"Don't call 120 yet. ”
