Chapter 491: The Way of Giving (1st Update)
From the beginning of the chess game, the Buddha took the initiative to mention the thousand techniques, but he didn't use poker to teach me the techniques, this unorthodox thousand skills made me a little difficult to understand.
But the chess game that I was tired of dealing with in front of me was real! My chess path was completely led by the nose by the Buddha and the old monster, and if I continued, I would definitely lose......
"Old man, isn't the real key to the magic not how to defeat the opponent, but how to disrupt the opponent and figure out the opponent?"
I whispered, handed over a cigarette again, and took the opportunity to light one myself and take two puffs to calm myself down!
"That's right! But the change is not just about disrupting and figuring out, the real killing move is still to come! If there is no killing move, the change is just a false shot!"
The old Buddha has already made it very clear that his transformation must have a follow-up purpose, and it can't be just casually playing on the chessboard!
"What's the real takeaway from transformation?" I humbly asked, I knew this was the real point!
It's just that I don't know if the Buddha will teach me easily, after all, this is the experience summed up in life, and it is the truth summed up by the rivers and lakes for decades...... The more precious it is, the less likely it is to teach it casually!
"The key to change is life, this is a game of chess and a game, and it can also be seen as a life...... It's up to you to understand which level!"
The Buddha's strange words are very subtle, but I already understand the gist of it, the change is actually the change of life!
"I see. I nodded respectfully, no matter what, I have to grasp the essentials and mysteries today!
The Buddha didn't say anything more in the next ten moves, but the more I played, the more confused I felt, as if I had fallen into an invisible trap, and I always had some scruples in my heart......
Because I didn't catch the Buddha's chess moves, and I couldn't see through his intentions and intentions, his chess pieces were scattered very messy, and I used four chess pieces to surround and kill one of his chess pieces......
Wait! I suddenly feel like something is wrong!
From the beginning of this game of chess, I only thought about how to kill, but I never thought about how to counterbalance it, this is the real change!
In other words, I only thought about how to kill this game, but I ignored the checks and balances that I was supposed to make!
If this is a game in life, then I will definitely not be tired of trying to figure out the opponent, but will definitely try all kinds of ways to figure out and try, so as to find the most suitable way out for myself!
When I thought of this, my confused heart suddenly became clear! How could a living person be suffocated to death by urine? It was this simple and easy-to-understand truth that almost suffocated me to death! It also suffocated many people in the world who were in a state of confusion!
I carefully looked at the distribution of the pieces on the chessboard, weighed the pros and cons of the current one, and started a new game of chess, but I was reluctant to give up the pieces that could be in front of me......
I wasted a lot of time on my moves, and the Buddha didn't rush with a cigarette, he seemed to be waiting for me to make a decision, a decision to give up!
Combined with the Buddha's definition of transformation just now, I can naturally associate this game of chess as a microcosm of life, and it is also a true manifestation of my inner character.
At this moment, it is not just some chess pieces that are discarded, as if they have become everything in life...... It's like something that has been hard work and obsession, it's like a friend who gets along day and night, and it's more like the trade-offs that should have been made in life!
The second uncle said that when he was born, he had nothing, and when he died, he couldn't take anything with him...... But it is uncomfortable to lose what you have owned, because human beings are greedy and possessive by nature!
Time passed slowly, and I had been hesitating for a long time, and I kept lighting and smoking cigarettes to weigh the pros and cons...... Even if I thought of what Brother Yu said, I still couldn't make a decision.
Even if you know it's right but hesitate, even if you know it's wrong, you still have to insist, what a simple truth, but it makes people so uncomfortable when they really face the choice!
"The longer you hesitate, the greater the tangle in your heart! You know what to do right, but you can't let go of those ties and interests...... This is the first knot in your heart!"
The Buddha looked at me meaningfully, he had already seen through the first knot in my heart, a knot that bothered me and could not be solved!
The chess pieces I give up at this moment are like my friends, I can't give them up, even if I know it's wrong to do so, but I can't cross the hurdle in my heart!
If the same situation were the second uncle, he would definitely be able to make a choice quickly! But this is exactly what makes me different from him!
"Remember, if you want to have everything in the world, you must first know how to accept it!
The old Buddha nodded again, and the meaning of his words was already encouraging, he was encouraging me to give up everything I should have given up, and he wanted to help me untie this knot......
Why don't I understand the principle of giving? Why don't I understand what a give-and-take is?
If you want to have it, you must first know how to accept loss, this sentence really touched my heart! But I asked myself if I could do it, because this is the difference between me and others, and I can't untie this knot......
Even though I knew it might be wrong, even though I knew I would be affected, I still couldn't choose to give up, because it was a principle!
"I understand what the old gentleman said, but I can't give up. "After saying that, I dropped the chess pieces and resolutely chose to protect them.
What I can't give up is not the interests but the people around me who are worth cherishing, and everything I have worked hard to build, which I can't give up......
"The obsession in my heart is too heavy, and the things that I can't give up are bound to become a burden to you!" the Buddha sighed, and I nodded to show that I knew.
In fact, the sigh of the old Buddha revealed one of his weaknesses! I didn't care when he took the initiative to encourage me just now, but his current performance made me wonder!
If I can really give up everything, including the friends around me and the feelings I once had, will the Buddha still be able to restrain me? From the perspective of his interests, will he want me to really give up everything?
To put it simply, if I can easily give up everything, wouldn't this master-apprentice relationship become a piece of paper to wipe my ass?
After thinking about it, I secretly pinched a cold sweat in my heart, and it is estimated that the Buddha has the intention to bring me into this strange circle, and use the teaching to test my heart silently, and even figure out my character and heart knot!
I think Ye Lingyun must have received such a teaching in the past, and he would also face the same choice! But Ye Lingyun, who was willing to pass the test, became a traitor...... It's an irony!
"In fact, obsession is not necessarily a bad thing, everything has two sides, at least it shows that you are a person who values feelings. ”
The old Buddha said coldly, and this sentence revealed his true purpose!
"There are two sides to everything, I understand that. "I said unceremoniously, I have understood this truth before, there is no absolute good or bad in everything.
The old monster is playing faster and faster, and I know that he has caught my move, and I can only cope with it at the moment, but I don't regret it!
Just like I have made so many choices, I know that there is a path without light, but I still resolutely go on!
In the past, the second uncle said that people always have a goal, no matter whether it is good or bad, right or wrong, just follow their own heart! Instead of looking for the Yangguan road that others should take in the eyes of others, it is better to break out of a thorny road by yourself!
In the end, the Buddha won a big victory, and all the pieces that did not play according to the routine came in handy, and the advantage of the black son was maintained from the beginning to the end......
Even though I ended up in a situation where I lost all the games, I don't regret anything because I know where I lost and that's all that matters!
"If you accidentally lose all the games, you will lose a big one because of a small loss!" the Buddha looked at me meaningfully, but I was at peace at the moment.
"I know where I lost, and if I had to do it again I might have lost the same thing, the same problem ......"
"If you know you're losing, why don't you seek to change?" looked at me in surprise, his eyes were really intriguing!
"The old gentleman said that the chessboard is just like life, and it is easy to change on the chessboard, but it is difficult to change in life...... If you can't change in life, what's the point of changing on the chessboard? Just to win the game?"
I asked calmly, and the Buddha frowned and looked at me with extremely complicated eyes, in fact, I was telling the truth......
In fact, it is not important to win or lose in chess, but it is more important to understand and change as a person!
In fact, it's really not terrible to lose, as long as you know how you lost and know the process of losing, it's worth it!
